Dear Pacific Beach Coalition Hero!
Our hearts are full of gratitude and joy for our
thousands of volunteers and supporters. Our
beach cleanups, habitat restorations, and other
educational events would not be possible
without YOU.

We are incredibly proud of all our volunteers
have accomplished and experienced this year,
and we look forward to continuing to make a
difference for the planet in 2024!
Many thanks to those of you who made
donations of time or money to PBC. We had a
wonderful time leading our beach cleanup and
habitat restoration events, working with our
Nudibranch Bunch (youth members), educating
everyone about nudibranchs and sending so
many cigarette filters to Terracycle.

As always, our efforts are always to help the
ocean, the earth and the people depending on
both.

Thank you for supporting us and caring for the
ocean.

Lynn Adams and Team PBC

PBC’S 2023 POSITIVE IMPACT
For 27 years now Pacific Beach Coalition has been engaging volunteers to clean beaches and streets and restore Linda Mar Beach and now the coastal trail to Rockaway. We’ve learned a lot but the most important thing we’ve learned is that sharing the work helps everyone! An amazing group of dedicated folks making a
difference in whatever way they can. All the love
for PBC! -Misha Flores, Volunteer

HABITAT RESTORATION UPDATE
Rain, Rain, Rain! Last winter's rain was the secret
ingredient to our planting success this year. Everything we planted grew and so did the plants from past years that have been hanging on by a thread through the drought
years. The entire trail from Linda Mar to Rockaway was a burst of color and is now a haven of seeds - a food source to many species and perhaps an influx of new babies for the coming year.

It looks like the wood chips we’ve been installing are
working and the constant weeding is paying off. Before
our eyes the coastal trail is changing from solid weeds to a thriving native habitat with diversity and color.

With volunteer help we hope to continue weeding,
planting more islands in the wood-chipped areas, and
mulching the slope to restore the soil, hold moisture, and fuel future plants. Here’s to more rain!

MONTHLY CLEANUP RESULTS
In 2023 we made a substantial impact on environmental
conservation. Our 11 monthly beach cleanup/habitat
restoration actions alone engaged 6,529 volunteers and
removed 24,701 pounds of landfill waste, 2188 pounds of recycles, and a very sad 114,146 cigarette butts from our shores, parking areas, streets and expanded cleanup
zones.

Such efforts not only contribute to cleaner beaches but also promote community awareness and involvement in
environmental stewardship.

The site captains at our newest locations have been
amazing, achieving significant stride towards preserving new marine environments for PBC.

Foster City had the highest number of cigarette butts
collected, with a staggering 29,162 butts.

Thornton Vista engage 221 volunteers and started a
habitat restoration site which is transforming a large
area from iceplant to local native plants.

Corporate & School Givebacks’ Impact:

Schools
Corporations
Since 2010 we’ve been leading Corporate Give Back
events. This year we hosted 15 school and 45 corporate
team events. Who doesn’t love a trip to the beach and a chance to make a difference together?
But it wouldn’t be a PBC event if teams didn’t get a healthy dose of education too. Our naturalist leaders follow up the cleanup or habitat restoration outing with information
about marine debris, climate change and of course, info about our Nudibranch, “Earth Hero of the Year”!
We can’t think of a better school field trip than to
go to the beach with classmates. Unless that
trip comes with a chance to help the ocean and
become an Earth Hero.

PBC naturalists guide students to clean a beach
and then provides education on what is found,
the impact made and how to help the ocean
every day. Students also learn about and
connect with the “Earth Hero of the Year”,
Nudibranchs. And they go home with smiles.

Love these dedicated
people and the
important work they
do. Lynn is a great
asset to Pacifica! The
volunteers are
excellent examples of
humanity! Let's keep
the Oceans clean and
Pacifica scenic.

STREET TO BEACH HIGHLIGHTS
People near and far can make a difference, be a citizen scientist at the same time and increase the impact PBC has on the world. Our Street to Beach Program enables volunteers to cleanup when and where they like, log their work and see their impact grow with others. Items collected are tallied on the app, Clean Swell, adding to the data of millions of volunteers around the world. The app provides information to guide legislation and document the breadth of the problems of litter.

Many youth cleanup near their homes, schools or favorite places, log their work and earn community service hours for their school or organization. We see PBC volunteers working in Washington State, Southern California and of course all over the Bay Area!

OUR MAIN EDUCATIONAL INITIATIVES
Everything we do is about education! Education partnered with an experience or action help people of all ages understand and retain new knowledge. Each year PBC focusses on one species to learn about, teach about, and dedicate all of our work to help. This year’s focus was Nudibranchs, a species most of us did not even know of. Now, we are all experts and thousands of people can tell you about them, too.

Over 25 school assemblies raised awareness about the nudibranch Our team of naturalists educate volunteers on site
Our Nudibranch Module, created by Chloe Van Loon, was used by teachers, students and families all over the Unites States. Here in the Bay Area, naturalist Greg Finkelstein brought school assemblies to 4,300 students. These youth now know all about Nudibranchs, and some have even become quite the expert.

Since 2019 we have hired naturalists to attend all our monthly cleanup and public events so that volunteers can touch, feel, and talk about the habitat, marine debris, climate change and everything happening at their location. We believe strongly in education for all who join us!

Our Junior Site Captains learn advocacy and leadership skills Yearly Earth Honoree and teacher toolkit
The Pacific Beach Coalition welcomes and trains high school youth passionate about the ocean to be a Junior Site Captain. In 2023, 56 youth worked side by side with our team of site captains to run the beach cleanup and habitat restoration events. These youth greet volunteers and assist running the event. Our team works to help them become leaders, use their voices, and explore their passions to help the Earth and Ocean.

Every year we rely on donations from our members, supporters and sponsors as well as a few grants to fund our existing programs and create new ones. We always aim to provide experiential learning while keeping volunteers engaged physically and/or mentally to help the ocean and planet. In 2023 this financial support helped us create, once again, an educational module of resources for teachers, students, home schoolers and the public to learn more about the nudibranch. You can find this module here:

SUCCESSFUL CAMPAIGNS AGAINTS FILTERS
All the dozens of buckets that had been decorated by inspired artists during last year’s Paint-a-Bucket contest have finally found their homes near benches and other public areas. As you can imagine, maintaining these buckets is no small task, especially when people mistreat them or use them for general trash instead of cigarette butts only. But we are happy to report that we were able to appoint a crew to collect, count and recycle the filters as well as keep an eye on the state and well being of these beautiful buckets.

Paint-a-Bucket: Collect Filters and Maintain the Decorated Buckets Butt Blitz: Pick Up and Recycle Filters Before the Rainy Storms In the coastal communities where the Pacific Beach Coalition operates and beyond (all the way to Texas!), the “Butt Blitz” became a symbol of collective action and environmental
responsibility. The volunteers, fueled by a shared passion for preserving the Pacific ocean and wildlife, scoured beaches, streets, shopping centers, and public spaces, picking up these often-overlooked but highly hazardous pollutants.

Cigarette filters, those tiny but toxic menaces, have been wreaking havoc on our oceans for far too long. They may be small, but they are a big part of the global pollution problem, ranking as the #1 trashed item worldwide. To combat this issue, the Pacific Beach Coalition launched two campaigns called “Paint-a-Bucket” and “Butt Blitz,” rallying volunteers to take action.

The results were nothing short of astounding, with 73,864 cigarette butts collected in just six weeks and right before the rainy season hit, preventing these filters from reaching the ocean.

SECTION 1: IDENTIFICATION/ANALYSIS OF LOCAL NEEDS
1a. Describe the problem or need area being addressed including any formal study that has been done of the local and regional need for the service, program, or project.

We are seeing a dramatic 14% increase in the number of families with children turning to Samaritan House for help, as people feel the financial burden of the last four years: a dollar that doesn’t stretch as far, reduced work hours, layoffs, and tough decisions between housing, childcare, and food that have led to climbing bills and mounting debt. Combined with stubbornly high rents, a cascade of evictions, lack of affordable childcare, and the end of all pandemic era supports that were keeping families afloat, our clients cannot keep up, as inflation erases wage gains.

At the national level, poverty rose between 2021 and 2022 by the largest one-year jump ever recorded when COVID-era relief measures disappeared, and we saw our poorest families across the nation fall deeper into poverty – a hard reality that has continued into 2024. (Casselman, Ben, and Lydia DePillis. “Poverty Rate Soared in 2022 as Aid Ended and Prices Rose.” Sept. 2023, https://www.nytimes.com/2023/09/12/business/economy/income-poverty-health-insurance.html) Across our state, California has retained its position as having the worst poverty rate in the entire country at

13.2%, thanks to high rent, utilities, and basic essentials. (Walters, Dan. “California Keeps Its Title as Having the Nation’s Highest Poverty Rate.” CalMatters, Sept. 2023, http://calmatters.org/commentary/2023/09/california-poverty-rate/) In San Mateo County, we have settled into an unsettling ‘new normal.’ As the 4th-wealthiest county in America, we also have remarkable income inequality, with levels showing the greatest divide in all of California. This county is home to close to 20 billionaires and also to 65,000 food insecure children and adults (5, 6). It now costs a family of four $170,000 to get by, and yet those making even a quarter of that income are automatically disqualified from federal benefits because they ‘exceed’ an outdated federal poverty cutoff (7). And with a

6.3 Attachment 3 - FY 2024-2025 Nonprofit Funding Grant Applications (Compiled) 749
growing list of layoffs hitting industries from restaurant and retail to marketing and tech, job insecurity threatens the well-being of many families unaccustomed to living paycheck to paycheck (8).

Incorporated in 1971, Foster City was born out of the determination of its residents to assume control over their city seven years after the first families settled there. Since that time, most of its residents have prospered, with a median household income today of $191,267 (https://www.census.gov/). Considering most of the country considers an annual income of nearly $150,000 as substantial, it is surprising to fathom that, in San Mateo County, such an income means you’re struggling to make ends meet. (The Daily Journal, June 17, 2024). The majority of our clients earn less than 30% of the AMI, which is $58,750 for a family of four in San Mateo County (HUD, State of CA HCD, SMC 2024), working unsuccessfully to ward off economic inequality, food and housing insecurity, and health disparity.

We know that hard work alone does not guarantee financial security. According to the Real Cost Measure, a self-sufficiency standard designed by United Ways of California, 1-in-4 households in San Mateo County (28%, 62,435 individuals) do not earn enough to afford the basic necessities, even though 97% of households have one adult actively engaged in the workforce, of which 71% are employed full-time. Their paychecks are simply not enough to cover the growing costs of housing (434% above the national average), food (23% above the national average), and even healthcare (25% above the national average) (areavibes.com/san+mateo-ca/costof-living/; January 2024).

Clients throughout San Mateo County, including residents of the City of Foster City, come to Samaritan House in financial crisis, seeking emergency housing or rental assistance. Latinx account for 65% of clients, 16% White, 13% Asian/Pacific Islanders, 5% Black, and 1% as Native American. Many are uninsured, none earn a livable wage or are unemployed, many have exhausted their unemployment benefits and cope with significant hardship, all of which have negatively impacted their household’s income level and ability to remain stably housed. Additionally, many endure mental health, legal, disability, or domestic violence adversity.

At Samaritan House, our holistic care approach supports clients not just in meeting their immediate needs, but also in helping guide them on a path towards self-reliance. Addressing societal inequities requires collective action to prevent their perpetuation across future generations.

Samaritan House is San Mateo County’s central anti-poverty agency and the designated Core Service Agency for Foster City. As well, our wide range of safety net services – food, access to shelter, clothing, health care and financial assistance - and role as operator of the County’s Coordinated Entry System (CES), are vital components of San Mateo County’s human services safety net for community members in need. Capitalizing on our success in securing, coordinating and operating numerous multi-agency, countywide, anti-poverty collaboratives in San Mateo County, Samaritan House will continue to leverage our expertise and relationships to better integrate services among community agencies and local residents. “I feel super grateful for [Samaritan House] because every month I have food, I have clothes, I have a doctor, I have almost everything. I was surprised by the resources available to my family.” – Cynthia, mother, wife, neighbor, Samaritan House client

SECTION 2: PROGRAM DESCRIPTION
2a. Describe the goals of the program for which you are requesting funding and how the funds would be used.

Samaritan House respectfully requests a $20,000 grant to support a wide range of vital safety net services for Foster City’s low- and extremely low-income families struggling with hunger, homelessness and poverty. This funding will be used to provide food, access to shelter, healthcare, personalized case management and a broad range of supportive services to set the most vulnerable families of Foster City on a path toward stability, selfreliance and success.

Honored as one of California’s Non-Profit of the Year in 2023 by Assembly member Diane Papan, Samaritan House commemorates 50 years of leading the fight against poverty in San Mateo County; uniting diverse stakeholders, mobilizing resources, and innovating new solutions, to overcome seemingly insurmountable challenges.
“For 50 years, we have built on the need identified by our founder, Dr. Cora Clemons, who felt there was a better way to connect struggling community members to vital resources. We’ve come a long way from the days of Dr. Clemons running Samaritan House out of a two-bedroom home in San Mateo, and we look forward to serving our neighbors for the next 50 years and beyond,” shares Samaritan House CEO Laura Bent.

In the face of demand now exceeding peak COVID-19 levels, fueled by the end of pandemic supports, persistent inflation, job insecurity, economic volatility, and an acute housing crisis, Samaritan House remains the central pillar in San Mateo County, positioned better than ever to help our neighbors out of poverty and into the futures they imagine. By investing in the stability and well-being of these households, we will address systemic inequities, alleviate poverty, empower families, and create socio-economic impacts.

Our broad range of supportive services include, but are not limited to:

CLIENT SERVICES: Housing assistance, emergency rental assistance, case management, benefits assistance, homelessness prevention services, referral and connection to many community resources.

Samaritan House also serves as the lead agency for San Mateo County’s Diversion and Coordinated Entry System (DCES), diverting 2,700+ individuals from homelessness each year. Financial empowerment and asset building services are offered, including VITA (Volunteer Income Tax Assistance) services and one-on-one financial coaching.

SHELTER SERVICES: Samaritan House operates three shelters throughout San Mateo County, located in Redwood City, San Mateo, and South San Francisco. Shelter staff work diligently to connect clients to permanent housing, employment opportunities, mental health services, and more. Collectively, Samaritan House provides nearly 55,000 nights of safe sleep to more than 530 individuals each year, including Foster City adults experiencing homelessness, across all of our shelter programs.

Our expanded Shelter Services program is an integral component of San Mateo County’s housing crisis resolution system offering short-term, emergency housing with supportive services to swiftly transition clients into permanent housing. Services encompass nutrition; intensive case management; housing location services; counseling; medical, dental, behavioral health care; educational programming; linkages to Federal, state, and local benefits; employment assistance/job training; legal services; life skills training; substance abuse treatment services; and supportive services.

We continue to advocate for our unhoused neighbors and work tirelessly to ensure they have a path toward stability and financial freedom, as our County continues to collaboratively approach a functional zero homelessness goal.

EMERGENCY FINANCIAL ASSISTANCE/HOMELESSNESS PREVENTION PROGRAM:

We are the contracted Emergency Financial Assistance (FA) entity for San Mateo County responsible for the

6.3 Attachment 3 - FY 2024-2025 Nonprofit Funding Grant Applications (Compiled) 751
procurement and processing of all financial assistance for the seven Core Service Agencies, including the City of Foster City. Our role assists our clients in meeting immediate and longer-term financial assistance including emergency coverage of utilities and rental mortgage assistance.

With the end of state and federal relief funds, Samaritan House continues to step up to provide direct financial assistance to families in need and continue to proactively ensure our clients have the funds they need to keep a roof over their heads, and a warm, comfortable place to sleep.

FOOD SERVICES: We are the County’s largest food distribution nonprofit. Samaritan House’s Food Services Program encompasses 12 programs: drive-thru food pantry, dining room, two Food Pharmacies, Mobile Meals delivery, Cora’s Market, Family Harvest, Produce Mobile, school lunch and snacks, among others. Our Food Services program distributes food through a variety of means to meet the diverse needs of those living with food insecurity. Overall, the program contributes $1,800+ in average savings per household per year. ).

HEALTHCARE: Free Healthcare Clinics of San Mateo and Redwood City provide 8,000+ patient visits each year with 100+ volunteer professionals. Medical, dental, vision and mental health services are provided at no cost to medically underserved residents of San Mateo County. Clinic patients are uninsured and unable to afford ‘out-of-pocket' healthcare costs, such as premiums, copays or deductibles of coverage. Since 2016, we have operated California’s first two Food Pharmacies, and patients with diabetes fill "prescriptions" for free nutritious food.

Providing primary and preventive care to the medically underserved not only benefits those receiving the care, but also accrues benefits to the community at large. Vaccinations reduce the spread of infectious diseases in a community. Keeping residents healthy improves the workforce and economy. Having a primary source of care reduces dependence on hospital emergency room visits at a considerable cost savings.

CHILDREN’S PROGRAMS: Samaritan House serves 8,500 children each year. Foster City children and youth access high quality clothes, backpacks, books, and more through our Kids Closet. We also host an annual Halloween costume giveaway, Holiday Toy & Gift Card Distribution event, and other children’s programs.

HOLIDAY ASSISTANCE: Samaritan House’s Holiday Program reaches more than 2,400 low-income households, including nearly 5,000 youth & teens. Thanksgiving dinners are served at local senior and community centers and at our Shelter sites. Special food distributions in November and December provide all the fixings for holiday dinners. Additionally, our Holiday Gift Card & Toy Distribution Events serve nearly 900 families (2,000+ children and teens). Festivities include a visit from Santa, holiday music, “snow showers”, cupcake cars, a gingerbread village, SM County Library Book Van, a marionette puppet show, arts/crafts and Loteria raffles.

WORKER RESOURCES: The Worker Resource Center (WRC) matches temporary laborers with potential employers. Managed by Samaritan House and funded by the City of San Mateo, the WRC provides a safe place for employers and employees to meet. In addition, ESL classes, computer learning, community engagement, training on basic maintenance and landscape services, employment services and referrals are offered to equip laborers with skills for employment.

VOLUNTEER PROGRAM: Samaritan House engages more than 900 volunteers who provide 35,000 hours of service. Our clinical service providers are 90% volunteer driven; the Kitchen and Food Pantry rely on volunteer efforts equivalent to 5.85 FTE's; and over 85 schools participate in monthly Wee Care clothing and food drives.

Samaritan House uses volunteer contributions from the community (approximately 1,700 hours of volunteer labor every month) to produce meals at a very low cost. 95% of the food used to prepare meals is provided by community in-kind contributions from local grocery stores, community food drives and individual donations, valued at $7+ million annually.
----------------
Samaritan House knows that the cornerstone of our mission is ensuring our services reach those who need them most. Our steady growth and innovation have prepared us to capture and care for all of those whose voices may not be as loud or strong but carry with them the weight of the world. We have amplified our impact

6.3 Attachment 3 - FY 2024-2025 Nonprofit Funding Grant Applications (Compiled) 752
and serve a record number of clients. In FY23, we provided 26,485 individuals with 472,785 services such as food, shelter and healthcare.

Communicating the complexity of the issues we address to the public has proven challenging. Misconceptions persist about the realities of poverty, particularly concerning individuals who outwardly seem stable, but who really are living on the edge. Despite past relief efforts, clients continue to be destabilized in the aftermath of COVID and an unpredictable economy; grappling agonizing decisions regarding basic necessities such as food, gas, rent, and healthcare, amidst rising costs and childcare expenses averaging $19,000 per child annually.

Throughout these difficulties, Samaritan House remains resolute in our commitment to provide care, empathy, and stability to those most in need. Drawing from half a century of experience, Samaritan House prioritizes every dollar invested in our organization as if it were the last chance for a family to maintain their housing, a child to have a meal, a senior to access essential medication, and a person to preserve their dignity through financial and mental health stability. We serve our Foster City neighbors with proven methods of care.

Samaritan House will continue to listen for the voices of those struggling, serve more clients than at any other point in our agency’s history, and serve as the unifying beacon that brings the community together.

Together with the City of Foster City, we will continue our fight to alleviate poverty in San Mateo County, and we will help our Foster City neighbors on their path to self-sufficiency. Thank you for your generous contribution this past year and for your consideration of our funding request.

APPLICANT INFORMATION
Organization Name: Samaritan House

2.b Describe the accomplishments over the recent year of your organization and/or the program for which you are requesting funding.

Since the onset of COVID, Samaritan House has extended support to 78% more clients, expanded the Food Services program by 355%, and tripled Shelter Services with the addition of two shelters. Additionally, our Homelessness Prevention program has seen a remarkable 424% surge in financial assistance, enabling us to help local families in crisis cover rent and other critical expenses. Through close collaboration with our CORE partners, we've ensured that 1,800 families have maintained stable housing. Last year, we distributed 4.85 million meals, marking a significant 34% increase from the previous year. Equally as impactful, we were honored with the CA Resource Recovery Association’s 2023 Outstanding Edible Food Recovery Program award, recognizing our work for diverting one million pounds of surplus food to support food-insecure individuals across the peninsula.

As our programs continue to grow to meet the needs of our community, Samaritan House welcomed Alec Raffin as our Chief Operations Officer in July 2023. Alec previously served as Director of Operations at Tenderloin Neighborhood Development Corporation where he was responsible for directing organization-wide operational effectiveness projects and overseeing the team responsible for supporting the organization’s business infrastructure. Prior to TNDC, he was a Senior Advisor for Fiscal Management Associates, a nation-wide consulting firm that helps nonprofit organizations strengthen their operational and fiscal capacity to effectively meet their missions. Alec is a San Francisco Bay Area native with more than 20 years of experience in the nonprofit sector.

Below are Samaritan House’s recent accomplishments and the framework through which we aim to create pathways out of poverty:
1) We will keep hardworking individuals and families housed In FY23, Samaritan House doubled the amount of financial assistance distributed directly to local families, as COVID relief funds disappeared. On behalf of our CORE partners, we ensured 1,800 families remained safely housed and disbursed $7.3M into the community. Additionally, we ensured families could stretch their budgets further by delivering essentials, including 236,700 diapers, 20,500 items of children’s clothing, and 3,500 backpacks. With the high cost of living and ongoing insecurity in the job market, we are preparing for even more families to come to our doors, and we will continue the necessary work of making sure they can remain stable and comfortably housed.

Deepening our reach in South San Mateo County, we partnered with Cummings Park Church to open the Belle Haven satellite office at 531 Pierce Road, East Menlo Park in early 2024. This new office, located within the church, offers vital homelessness prevention services to the community.

6.3 Attachment 3 - FY 2024-2025 Nonprofit Funding Grant Applications (Compiled) 754
2) We will keep families nourished with healthy food
In FY23, the Food Services program served 22,667 individuals (10,224 households) facing food insecurity.

Services included hot meals to 5,339 clients, a 25% increase year-over-year. Notably, we achieved a remarkable milestone with the distribution of 4,848,689 meal equivalents, representing a colossal 30% increase year-over-year.

Cora’s Community Market will open to the public later this year. Cora’s Market is a reimagined, 1,700 square foot facility designed to resemble a neighborhood grocery store, where clients can enjoy a free-choice shopping experience for fresh produce, vegetables, pantry staples, refrigerated prepared foods, and essential household items like diapers, baby food and formula.

Our Food Services Program remains an essential community resource on which tens of thousands of food insecure San Mateo County families depend., Grocery prices, which jumped by 25% over the past 4 years, outpaced the 19% increase in inflation over the same period (Washington Post, 2/2/24). While some sectors are experiencing price normalization, the foreseeable outlook for current grocery prices is, at best, stabilization, due to supply chain issues, international tensions and war, drought and avian flu. Families spend 70% more on groceries than they did pre-pandemic, and food services requests have reached unprecedented heights. In the year ahead, we will ensure our neighbors have access to food via our drive-thru food pantry, Cora’s Community Market, school pantries, and prepared hot meals. Meals and groceries will continue to be supplied through several channels, including our San Mateo Dining Room, Family Harvest and Produce Mobile distributions, mobile meal delivery, and two clinic Food Pharmacies. 3) We will keep the uninsured healthy with comprehensive preventative medical, dental, and behavioral health care
In FY23, our clinics provided over 8,000 medical and dental visits to patients in need, including 520 breast cancer screening appointments, and 1,200+ mental health sessions. We improved our pharmacy with the addition of a part-time pharmacist. We acquired a new AI diabetic eye camera to screen all diabetic patients for early retinal disease, and now offer both blood pressure and diabetes glucometers free of charge to patients.

Our expanded Women’s Health program now better tracks our mammography and cervical cancer screening programs, and our ophthalmology and optometry services were broadened to meet demand. Currently, we are offering flu and COVID vaccines to patients and will continue our fundamental work in ensuring our community’s most vulnerable have access to the medical care, nutritious food, and resources they need.

Behavioral Health Care Manager, Jose Perez, continues to grow our Behavioral Healthcare program to help patients cope with depression, grief, loss, and anxiety. Notably, we completed our first year with a fully expanded psychology internship program in collaboration with various universities in the region, increasing our capacity while educating aspiring mental health professionals. In addition, we added several mental health group visits, which focus on trauma, domestic violence, and diabetes management, and include a bi-monthly art therapy group.

In April, 2024, Samaritan House’s Free Clinics’ Medical Director, Dr. Baldeep Singh, was honored with the 2024 Rambar-James Mark Award for Excellence in Patient Care, a testament to the clinic's dedication to exceptional service. This commitment to excellence is also reflected in our comprehensive renovation project at the Free Clinic of San Mateo, which began in June 2023, with a goal of fortifying structural integrity, modernizing facilities, and enhancing operational efficiency for an improved experience for both patients and healthcare providers. The project is now complete, and we look forward to celebrating our reopening in July 2024.
4) We will provide safe shelter for the unhoused
Samaritan House remains dedicated to working closely with the county and fellow nonprofits to provide safe shelter for the most medically vulnerable and chronically unhoused members of our community in congregate and non-congregate settings, while implementing comprehensive safety protocols across all of our shelters.

Samaritan House operates three shelters throughout San Mateo County, located in Redwood City, San Mateo, and South San Francisco. Shelter staff work diligently to connect clients to permanent housing, employment opportunities, mental health services, and more. We now provide more than 55,000 nights of safe sleep to more than 530 individuals each year.

6.3 Attachment 3 - FY 2024-2025 Nonprofit Funding Grant Applications (Compiled) 755
In response to the escalating number of families on the CES waitlist, San Mateo County, in partnership with Samaritan House, implemented a temporary solution to accommodate these families. From October 1, 2023 through June 30, 2024, Samaritan House operated a temporary Shelter Bridge Program based at Pacific Emergency Shelter, Redwood City, providing emergency shelter for families. This Bridge Program served as an interim solution, bridging the shelter gap as the County formulated long-term plans to address the substantial number of families in need of shelter and the insufficient availability of family shelter bed space.

In the year ahead, we will continue working diligently with our CORE Agency partners to place every person who needs a place to sleep in San Mateo County into safe, warm shelter, and to move them from the shelter to permanent housing. We will continue to advocate for our unhoused neighbors and work tirelessly to ensure they have a path toward stability and financial freedom, as our County continues to collaboratively approach a functional zero homelessness goal.
5) We will ensure children in need have more than just the basics Recognizing that dignity goes beyond the essentials, our littlest clients receive the basic necessities of living as well as high quality clothes, backpacks, diapers, and more through our Kids Closet. 2023’s Holiday Program served 2,445 households, including 4,949 youth.

6.) We will innovate and be at the forefront of implementing news ways to fight poverty and lift lives In the Fall of 2024, Samaritan House will implement a supplemental income pilot program, designed to empower single mothers living in poverty toward self-sufficiency through increased financial stability, agency, and self-determination. Born out of the voice of listening and healing circles with our clients, this researchbased pilot targets single-mother-led families who are interested in augmenting their income and progress towards a more sustainable future. By investing in the financial stability and well-being of these households, Samaritan House’s Basic Income Pilot will address income inequality, alleviate poverty, empower women, and create socio-economic impacts. When we empower women, we increase the skilled workforce, local economies are strengthened, businesses do better, and families rise out of poverty and create generational wealth and self-sufficiency. We all benefit. (UN Women, 2018).
2c. Describe the benefits to the City of Foster City and/or its residents of the program goals and accomplishments described in the previous two questions.

San Mateo County remains one of the wealthiest counties in the country, but also one with one of the largest income disparities. The flashes of wealth can sometimes outshine the darkness of poverty. But, at Samaritan House, we see through the darkness and provide a voice and spectrum of services for those who may otherwise be unseen. Foster City residents in crisis have and continue to benefit from our spectrum of services, including access to food, clothing, shelter, mental health management, medical and dental care, case management, holiday assistance, worker resources and emergency financial assistance.

A look back at FY23, Samaritan House assisted 394 Foster City residents through our Client Services Program; and 38 unduplicated patients plus their families were provided 65 medical and dental patient visits at the Free Clinic of San Mateo. Samaritan House served 6,265 meals and provided a total of $28,812 in emergency financial assistance, including rental assistance and utility payments. The total value of all services combined was $78,042 (food, financial assistance, clothing, and healthcare). A total of 49 volunteers provided 1,536 hours of service. With our support, vulnerable neighbors in Foster City received the critical services necessary to achieve stability.

With her permission, the following client story demonstrates the impact of Samaritan House’s Core Services programs.

A Mother’s Struggle
Julia* is a mother of twin school-aged girls from Foster City who initially came to Samaritan House in 2015, for help with housing assistance, and has prospered because of her determination to create a stable home for her and her children, and Samaritan House’s safety net of services that have met her determination with action. In 2015, Julia’s story took an unfortunate turn, and she and her family found themselves without a home, turning

6.3 Attachment 3 - FY 2024-2025 Nonprofit Funding Grant Applications (Compiled) 756
to her mother for help. Julia’s twin babies were able to sleep comfortably at their grandmother’s house, but, due to a rift between Julia and her mother, Julia resorted to sleeping in her car. Even with a representative payee in charge of managing her SSI disability income, she was not able to afford a place of her own. As luck would have it, Julia had recently been awarded a Shelter Plus Care voucher (housing subsidy). Her case manager saw her struggle, and introduced her to our Food Services Program and our Clothing Program, and advocated for the approval of financial assistance for her deposit and first month’s rent on her new apartment.

When her case manager arrived to deliver the funds to the property owner, Julia informed her that her dad had paid her deposit so Samaritan House could use the funds for another client in need.

During the next several years, Julia continued to prosper while raising her family in her apartment. She utilized the food pantry and Kid’s Closet, and participated in the annual Holiday Program so her young family could experience the joy of the holidays. At the urging of her case manager, Julia signed up for the Family Harvest Program and the Produce Program to supplement their weekly food rations with healthy foods for her two young children.

While living in her apartment, Julia’s housing subsidy changed twice. During the second change, HUD informed her that they could no longer subsidize a 2-bedroom apartment for her family because she did not have full custody of her children, and she received a notice informing her that her rent was increasing to the full amount.

Julia began proceedings to obtain full custody of her daughters. Managing HUD, court proceedings, and her landlord, compounded by her disability, left her feeling overwhelmed. Julia’s anxiety peaked as she struggled with these responsibilities, feeling isolated and deeply concerned for her family's well-being. Fortunately, Julia sought support from her case manager to navigate the complexities of securing full custody of her daughters and addressing her housing concerns. Recognizing her difficulties, the case manager intervened on Julia’s behalf regarding her housing situation, relieving Julia of that burden and allowing her to focus entirely on her custody proceedings.

In a life-altering victory, Julia was awarded full custody of her daughters, and her case manager successfully secured a housing voucher to cover the cost of her 2-bedroom apartment that had become her family’s home. “Samaritan House has made the difference of me being housed from homelessness. The case managers have been there for every aspect of my life, even my dog’s! It has been great to have such amazing advocates to help me navigate a crazy system. I have so much love for everyone there, I don’t know what I would do without them.” - Julia
*Name has been changed to protect client confidentiality. 2d. How many Foster City residents did this program serve last year and/or how many are expected to be served in the coming year?
In fiscal year 2023 (July 1, 2022 – June 30, 2023), Samaritan House served a total of 430 Foster City residents (175 households), nearly double the number of residents, year over year. We anticipate slightly higher numbers in the coming year.

2e. Does your organization or program serve a larger geographic area or any other jurisdictions? List (if any), including the total number typically served.

Our headquarters and main service location is just 1.5 miles from Foster City. With facilities stretching from South San Francisco to East Palo Alto and Menlo Park, Samaritan House is the only organization that delivers the full breadth of essential services to the working poor across San Mateo County. Altogether, in FY23, we served 26,485 individuals with financial assistance, homelessness prevention and essential services, such as food, shelter, clothing, and healthcare. During the same period, we served 2,553 residents out of our East Palo Alto satellite office, and 1,122 residents out of our Burlingame Annex.

Foster City is located in the cradle of our service area, with offices to the north in San Mateo and Burlingame, and to the south in East Palo Alto, as well as our newest location, in the Belle Haven neighborhood of Menlo Park. Samaritan House headquarters, located at 4031 Pacific Blvd in San Mateo and situated at the San Mateo-Belmont border, includes three floors totaling 17,000 square feet of usable space, as well as a commercial kitchen, food pantry and future community market. Kids Closet is located adjacent to the building, across the parking lot. We are conveniently located for Foster City residents. As the location is on two SamTrans bus routes as well as Caltrain, it is easily accessible via public transportation. The Free Clinic of San Mateo is located blocks away on 39th Avenue and El Camino Real.

Services, such as our Mobile Meals for seniors and disabled individuals who are homebound, are available for direct delivery in Foster City. During the pandemic, we partnered through the Foster City Chamber Cares Initiative with multiple agencies and organizations within and serving Foster City to ensure delivery of service to residents, including prepared meals for unhoused individuals living in their cars in Foster City parking areas. Samaritan House has also been involved in assisting Foster’s Landing residents under the relocation project.

Samaritan House provides shelter and comprehensive support services for Foster City residents in need of housing. Our facilities include Safe Harbor Shelter, a 105-bed congregate shelter in South San Francisco, Pacific Emergency Shelter, a 74-room non-congregate shelter in Redwood City, and El Camino House, a 44-room shelter in San Mateo. Staff oversee shelter operations, conduct intake and intensive case management, perform wellness checks, and provide essential resources, such as food and clothing. They also assist residents in securing permanent housing, employment opportunities, mental health services, and much more.

SECTION 3: ADMINISTRATIVE CAPACITY
3a. Describe the organization’s experience providing the proposed project or program.

As San Mateo County’s Lead Core Service Agency, Samaritan House is uniquely positioned to meet the ongoing needs of our community and take on unexpected challenges, while continuing to provide the same level of service, care, and compassion to thousands of people across the County.

Samaritan House currently serves as the County’s contracted Emergency Financial Assistance (EFA) administrative entity and the fiscal sponsor for the San Francisco Chronicle’s Season of Sharing (SOS) Fund, coordinating a rental/emergency assistance program on behalf of the Core Services Agency Network, which provides one-time emergency assistance to low income, eligible families. The agency is a current CSBG and Measure K grantee, providing homelessness prevention services and financial assistance through multiple contracts with the County of San Mateo. Samaritan House is the lead agency in a 7-agency collaborative with the Core Service Agency Network (CSN) to make Community Action Agency resources available countywide, as well as the lead agency for the County of San Mateo’s Coordinated Entry System and has developed the infrastructure needed to adequately report and track financial and programmatic data for these funding sources. At the close of each fiscal year, the books and records of Samaritan House are audited by an independent certified public accountant.

Since 2017, Samaritan House has been under contract with the County’s Human Service Agency as the operator of the Coordinated Entry System (CES), closely partnering with numerous government agencies, Core Services Agencies, homeless service providers, domestic violence providers and other agencies to deliver services. CES prioritizes diversion, harnessing the resources and resilience of unhoused clients to secure housing options with shelter placement as a final resort, thus averting homelessness by facilitating immediate alternate housing arrangements and connecting them with services and financial assistance to support a return to permanent housing, if needed. CES has allowed for a more streamlined intake and referral process, ensuring that the most vulnerable, medically fragile, chronically unhoused seniors and individuals have priority placement in one of San Mateo County’s nine shelters and receive the intensive case management and support services they need. From June 2017 through July 2023, the program served approximately 7,470 households. During this period, the program provided 2,744 diversions and 9,404 shelter placements. Notably, intensified outreach has driven impressive growth in the CES Referral Network, surging from 8 to 18 agencies in the last 3 years, resulting in a 30% increase in annual referrals.

We’ve leveled services over the last 4 years, and with strengthened infrastructure, partnerships, and innovative approaches, we have amplified our impact and serve a record number of clients. Together with the City of Foster City, we will work to advance economic mobility and ensure housing stability by providing the needed services for residents of the City of Foster City.

3.b Describe the way that the program is staffed (full-time, part-time, volunteer) and organized, as well as your organization’s total annual budget and your various sources of revenue.

With 50 years of experience providing homelessness prevention and safety net services to residents throughout San Mateo County, 151 staff, (128 FTE/23 PTE), and a FY24 operating budget of $29,557,777, Samaritan House has the organizational experience, management expertise, history of partnerships and linkages with other community based organizations, sound fiscal management principles, grants administration expertise, board support and overall agency infrastructure necessary to operate effective and successful programs. Our diverse funding portfolio is comprised of a diversified fund portfolio of 35% government, 5% healthcare districts, 10% foundations, 4% business & community groups, 11% individuals & bequests, 5% other, and 30% in inǦkind contributions and volunteer services valued at approximately $10.7 million (including 68%Ǧfood; 9% lab tests; 4% prescription medication; 3% professional/volunteer hours (clinic doctors/nurses); 10%Ǧfacilities and equipment, 6%Ǧother), making Samaritan House one of the best leveraged organizations in the County.

All of our core programs are staffed and managed by highly experienced, ethnically diverse, culturally

6.3 Attachment 3 - FY 2024-2025 Nonprofit Funding Grant Applications (Compiled) 759
competent teams, with extensive knowledge and experience providing case management, homelessness prevention and housing services to low-income and/or unhoused individuals. They are sensitive to the needs of the program participants and reflective of the population served. Spanish/English bilingual staff accommodate clients with limited English proficiency. For those clients who are monolingual in languages other than Spanish, such as our Pacific Islander, Asian and Russian clientele, translators and staff from other Samaritan House programs are available to assist on site and via teleconference. Should we not have a staff person in house, we do have a contracted company that is licensed and bonded for translation services. Referrals are also provided to residents for the adult school ESL classes. Program information is available in Spanish. Services and phone equipment are also available for the hearing impaired.

Volunteerism is an important part of Samaritan House’s core mission, and a robust engagement program provides effective opportunities for community members to share their means, energy and concern for those in need. In FY23, Samaritan House engaged 773 dedicated volunteers, providing 20,576 hours of service.

Our food kitchen and food pantry are staffed by volunteers equaling 5.85 FTEs on an annual basis.

APPLICANT INFORMATION
Organization Name: Samaritan House
3c. Describe any collaboration that exists between your organization, this program and programs administered by other agencies, including financial, staffing or cross-referral, and how this may have benefitted or increased the impact of your services.

Samaritan House plays a leading or key role in over 50 major community efforts, 10 of them arising from the pandemic alone, for example the Shared Prosperity Coordinating Council, and many more.

From the outset of the COVID pandemic, Samaritan House demonstrated leadership through collaboration with local agencies, organizations, and government. We played a key leading role in the Foster City Chamber Cares Initiative, partnering with a variety of Foster City entities including Gilead, VISA, the Villages, Foster City San Mateo Educational Foundation, Peninsula Special Interest Lions, Foster City Rotary and Lions Clubs, Hillbarn Theater, and many more. Together, we provided essential services such as food, shelter, case management, healthcare, personal protective equipment, vaccinations, children’s supplies, and financial assistance to Foster City residents and beyond.

Our commitment extends to additional partnerships with Foster City businesses and schools, including Costco, Crumbl Cookies, Safeway and Wee Care partners, Audubon Elementary, Beach Park Elementary, Bowditch Middle School, Brewer Island Elementary, Foster City Elementary, Mrs. K’s Preschool, Kids Connection, and Ronald C. Wornick School. These collaborations yield donations of food, clothing, toiletries, flowers, furniture, and cleaning products, reinforcing our community support efforts.

Samaritan House also leads emergency response efforts as the County's Resource for Emergency Disaster Food Relief. Whether responding to wildfires, floods, aiding residents displaced by tragic events in Half Moon Bay, or supporting families during the pandemic, our mobilization with partner organizations, funders, donors, and volunteers has been pivotal. Together, we enhance access to services, reduce health inequities, strengthen community resilience, and ensure no one is left behind.

Additionally, Samaritan House partners with San Mateo County Joint Powers Authority (JPA), as well as with US 101 Express Lanes Community Transportation Benefits Program: the lead agency and administrator of FasTrak transponders and Clipper cards each valued at $200 (one-time benefit) to qualifying residents, helping to address transportation inequities.

Samaritan House is the leader of anti-poverty efforts in San Mateo County; strengthening the social safety-net, while building strategic partnerships with government, the private sector, and local community nonprofits.

Accordingly, Samaritan House serves as the lead agency of the Coordinated Entry System (CES), established to prevent homelessness in San Mateo County. This multi-agency, countywide effort circumvents shelter placement by using every available resource to keep residents housed. We participate and provide a leadership role in the Point-In-Time Counts/One Day Homeless Counts and Surveys. We have been a part of the County Economic Recovery Committee, the Covid Recovery Committee, and we are actively engaged in a leadership

In the past year, Samaritan House has faced new
challenges, and every time, we have risen to meet
them. From emergency responses to local crises, to
meeting a rising tide of need, we’ve been working
hard every step of the way. When families were
displaced by violence in Half Moon Bay, we worked
on the ground and with our partners to keep them
safe and stable. When the lines at our pantry
stretched down the block, we made sure each
family that came to us got the essential food
they needed.

For all these needs and many more, we’ve
responded - with your support. Thank you for
standing with us. Whether you’ve been with us
vœÀ“>˜ÞÞi>ÀÜÀޜսÀi>wÀÃ̇̈“i`œ˜œÀ]ޜÕÀ
support in this critical time has made the difference.

From keeping Kids Closet stocked with clothing, to
driving meals to homebound seniors, to giving big
at our signature fundraising gala, you’ve been on
our team. Thank you.

I am incredibly proud of what we’ve achieved
together in this year. As Samaritan House
underwent big changes in leadership, our staff
made sure that everyone who needed our critical
services, remained clothed, fed, healthy and
housed. In the past year alone, our dedicated
pantry staff and volunteers served over 26,000
clients, and our shelter staff provided 55,000 nights
of safe sleep. Serving that many clients is hard work,
and I am grateful for the dedicated team that has
been there day in and day out.

I am incredibly blessed to lead this organization. I
am also so proud to be working alongside our new
medical leadership team, Drs. Baldeep Singh
and Tamara Montecute as well as our new COO,
ƂiV,>vw˜°/
iÃiˆ˜`ˆÛˆ`Õ>Ã>Ài>Ài>`Þ“>Žˆ˜}
remarkable contributions to our executive
leadership team. Despite their brief tenure, they’ve
already made remarkable contributions to our
executive leadership team.

With nearly 50 years of experience, dedicated staff,
and a strong community of neighbors like you with
us, we’re ready to respond to crises big and small.

This year’s Annual Report is a window into the work
we do at Samaritan House. You’ll hear from four
clients who have come to us in different moments of
need. For each of these clients, our staff has been
there to alleviate the immediate the crisis, assess all of the various needs of the household, and connect
our clients to ongoing resources. We are in real
conversations with real people every day. We are
their lifeline when their kids need to switch schools,
when they have to choose between buying milk or
buying diapers, and when they are moments away
from losing power or losing their home. Samaritan
House is the village that those living in poverty
don’t always have and our support goes beyond
food, shelter, and other essential services. We let
clients know they are not alone.

As long as you all are with us, we know we can
continue to meet the needs of our neighbors
and let them know, every day, that they are not
alone. Thank you for being with us as we work

Client stories
Virginia
Virginia grew up in San Mateo County
and raised a family with her husband.

Together, they ran a company and lived
comfortably for many years, selling their
company and retiring together. But when
her husband became ill and passed away,
Virginia went from comfortably middle
class to living on the edge. “I had all this
success in my younger years, and now
it’s all disappeared.” She lost her family
home, and her savings quickly vanished.

amid rising prices. Samaritan House came
to her aid, providing essential rental
support. With help from her case manager,

time, but still couldn’t cover the basics. With
two disabled children requiring extra care,
Cynthia had to stretch every dollar as far as
she could. She came to Samaritan House
for help. She was surprised by the resources
available to her family. “I called Samaritan
House for help with food and clothes, and
they helped me with housing, too.” Ana,
a staff member at Samaritan House, was
the person Cynthia called whenever she
needed help. “I always call Ana when I
need help. She makes sure I can get what
I need.”
Samaritan House made their family’s
challenges easier. “I feel super grateful
because every month I have food, I have
clothes, I have a doctor, I have almost
everything.” Now, when Cynthia meets
other immigrants trying to get their feet
under them, she always sends them to Ana,
knowing they’ll get that same care and
comfort that she has been able to rely on.

Daniel

>˜ˆiwÀÃÌV>“i to Samaritan House a
year ago. A challenging home life had
led him to be without housing. Without
reliable meals and other essentials, his
health was suffering. At a medical visit, a
doctor mentioned the Samaritan House
Worker Resource Center (WRC) and Reyna,
who runs the center. Daniel reached out
to Reyna, looking for work. What he found
was so much more. At the WRC, he found a
community. He learned about the shelters
and was able to move into El Camino
House in February. Once in the shelter,
he was connected to even more services,
including healthcare and food. He became
a WRC regular, always ready to take on a
job and do his best. “I am grateful to Reyna
for helping me get shelter and work too.

Samaritan House has been good for me.”
Renato
Renato has been in the Bay Area for
11 years, working as an aide with
developmentally disabled clients. Originally
from the Philippines, he moved to the
United States alone and has no local
family. He worked hard at his job and was
even able to send money home from time
to time to support his family there. “I’m
alone here in the United States. My family
is in the Philippines but I’m a US citizen.

It’s expensive in the Philippines, too, and
I want to send money to help them but I
have to pay so much to live here.” When
prices began to rise rapidly last year, he
was on his own. Without the safety net of
family, he needed help and he found it at
Samaritan House. Knowing he doesn’t have
to worry about whether or not he’ll be able
to afford food is a relief. Renato is not alone
in that relief – some of his clients come for
food too. Samaritan House has been good
for him and his community of clients. He’s
excited to be able to give back when he
can. “I came here last week with some of
my clients and we helped pack food!”

Clemons Emerging Young Samaritan Award:

Amy Nguyen.

In an effort to make her school equitable
and inclusive for everyone, Amy and her
classmates came together to supply free
period pads and tampons for their school
bathrooms. They believe that access to
basic needs can better equip the students
to feel at peace, safe, and thought of.

Their dedication made the grassroots
campaign for free menstrual supplies
possible and made a positive change on
the school culture.

Samaritan House is proud of the work Amy
has done, and we are happy to recognize
and award her proactive and inclusive
efforts with the Dr. Cora Clemons
Emerging Young Samaritan Award.

Dr. Clemons’ dedication to lifting up our

With so much uncertainty in the world, it’s

JOHN KELLY LEGACY CIRCLE
We rely on leadership and collaboration of people like
you to address complex issues faced by those living in
poverty. Making the decision to prepare a legacy gift gives you the opportunity to provide lasting, positive change in thousands of lives for generations to come. Legacy donors are invited to join Samaritan House’s John Kelly
Legacy Circle.

John Kelly Legacy Circle members inspire others to look toward the future and learn how they, too, can have a
lasting impact in the lives of our neighbors who are less fortunate. Please let us know if you would like to explore your family’s priorities, hopes, and dreams to make this San Mateo County community a better place for all. To join the John Kelly Legacy Circle, all you need do is tell us that you have included Samaritan House in your estate plan,
whether by your will, trust, retirement plan, bank account or other means. We hope that you will allow us to thank and recognize you in Samaritan House publications and
communications. If you choose, we will respect your wish to remain anonymous.

SUBJECT: DISCUSSION OF CALIFORNIA VOTING RIGHTS ACT

CHALLENGE AND DEMAND FOR CITY TO TRANSITION TO
DISTRICT-BASED ELECTIONS; AND PROVIDE DIRECTION TO

STAFF REGARDING NEXT STEPS, INCLUDING RETENTION OF

DEMOGRAPHER

RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the Council consider a letter received on July 22, 2024, challenging the City’s at-large election system and demanding that the City transition to district-based elections; and by Minute Order, provide direction to staff regarding next steps, including the retention of a demographer.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The City received a certified letter from a potential plaintiffs’ attorney, Shenkman & Hughes PC, on July 22, 2024, alleging a violation of the California Voting Rights Act (the “CVRA”)1 and threatening litigation if the City declines to voluntarily change to a district-based election system for electing Councilmembers. (See Attachment 1).

Pursuant to Elections Code section 10010, a city may take advantage of “safe harbor” provisions that allows a city to adopt a resolution outlining its intention to transition from 1 Cal. Elec. Code §§ 14025-14032.

6.4 6.4 Staff Report
801
at-large to district-based elections within forty-five (45) days of receiving a demand letter from a potential plaintiffs’ attorney.2 Staff is seeking direction from the Council on next steps including the future date to consider a resolution of intent to transition to district-based elections and the retention of a demographer to assist in the potential transition.

BACKGROUND
The CVRA was enacted in 2001, in part, to provide minority groups in California with tools to prevent dilution of votes in “at-large” election systems and is more expansive than the federal Voting Rights Act of 1965 (“FVRA”). An at-large method of election may not be imposed or applied in a manner that impairs the ability of a protected class to elect candidates of its choice or its ability to influence the outcome of an election, as a result of the dilution or the abridgement of the rights of voters who are members of a protected class.3 A violation of the CVRA is established if it is shown that racially polarized voting occurs in elections for members of the governing body or in elections incorporating other electoral choices by the voters of the political subdivision.4 Any voter who is a member of a protected class and who resides in a political subdivision where a violation of the CVRA is alleged may file an action in the superior court in which the political subdivision is located.5
The CVRA defines “protected class” as a class of voters who are members of a race, color, or language minority group, as referenced and defined in the FVRA6 and “racially polarized voting” as voting in which there is a difference, as defined in case law under the FVRA, in the choice of candidates or other electoral choices preferred by voters in a protected class, as compared to the rest of the electorate (i.e., the protected class members vote as a politically cohesive unit, while the majority votes sufficiently as a bloc usually to defeat the protected class’s preferred candidate.7 The CVRA does not require a plaintiff to prove intent on the part of the voters or elected officials to discriminate against a protected class nor does the fact that members of a protected class are not geographically compact or concentrated preclude a finding of racially polarized voting.8 Instead, a violation of the CVRA may be established by showing that both racially polarized voting and dilution occur in elections for members of the governing body.9

ANALYSIS
Since enactment of the CVRA, the legislature has adopted laws to provide “safe harbor” provisions that allow a city to transition in accordance with a statutory timeline and, if followed, insulates a city from litigation arising from alleged CVRA violations and caps attorneys’ fee liability to a maximum of $30,000.10
Under those “safe harbor” provisions, a prospective plaintiff is required to send a written notice to the clerk of a city asserting that the city’s method of conducting elections may violate the CVRA.11 A forty-five (45) day stay is then imposed on a prospective plaintiff’s ability to bring an action.12 That forty-five (45) day stay allows a city to adopt a resolution outlining its intention to transition from at-large to district-based elections.13 If a resolution of intention is adopted by a city council to move to district-based elections, a prospective plaintiff may not commence an action within ninety (90) days of the resolution of intention’s passage.14
Many cities, counties and special districts have received CVRA challenge letters. In San Mateo County, the cities of Pacifica, Belmont, Burlingame, Menlo Park, Millbrae, Half Moon Bay, Town of Woodside, Redwood City, San Bruno, San Mateo, and South San Francisco have all transitioned to district-based elections. While various cities have tried to defend against CVRA challenges and have spent millions of dollars in attorneys’ fees, there has not yet been one case that has been successfully defended in the courts. The City of Santa Monica, for example, has spent many millions of dollars defending against a CVRA challenge since 2016 and the parties are still litigating the case after it was heard by the California Supreme Court. The City of Palmdale was required to pay $4.7 million in attorneys’ fees as a result of a CVRA lawsuit. The City of Modesto also challenged a CVRA claim but was unsuccessful and ultimately settled the case for about $3 million and switched over to by-district elections.

Due to the uncertainty of litigation and the potentially extraordinary cost of such a lawsuit, most cities, counties and special districts decide to take advantage of the “safe harbor” provisions and transition to district-based elections to limit the attorneys’ fees to $30,000.

Next Steps
Given that the City has received this CVRA challenge letter, staff is seeking direction from the Council on whether to proceed to agendize for the Council’s consideration a resolution of intent to transition to district-based elections. Staff is recommending scheduling that item for the September 3, 2024, regular Council meeting. At that meeting, the Council would consider whether to adopt the resolution of intent to take 10 Cal. Elec. Code § 10010(f)(1)-(3).
11 Cal. Elec. Code § 10010(e)(1).
12 Cal. Elec. Code § 10010(e)(2).
13 Cal. Elec. Code § 10010(e)(1)-(3).
14 Cal. Elec. Code § 10010(e)(1)-(3).

6.4 6.4 Staff Report

advantage of the “safe harbor” provisions. At that meeting, staff would provide a tentative timeline for the transition, which would need to be completed within ninety days of adoption of the resolution.15
Additionally, staff is recommending the retention of a demographer. There are a number of well-qualified demographers in the bay area that offer various levels of services depending on the needs of each city. Staff has obtained some preliminary information from a few demographers who have assisted other cities in San Mateo County to transition to district-based elections and has determined that the basic costs of the demographers are generally within the City Manager’s purchasing authority under the City’s Purchasing Policy (Less than $50,000 for Level D professional services). However, given the importance of the demographer’s role in the transition to district-based elections, the City Manager is seeking direction from the Council to confirm that the City Manager should proceed with retaining a demographer, without Council input. If the Council gives direction to the City Manager to proceed with the retention of the demographer, the City Manager will follow the procedures in section

3.04.140(B)(1) to retain those professional services.

California Environmental Quality Act
This item does not constitute a project as defined by the California Environmental Quality Act (Public Resources Code Section 21000, et seq.) (CEQA) as the discussion and direction does not have the potential to result in either a direct physical change in the environment, or a reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment (14 Cal. Code Regs. § 15378.).

FISCAL IMPACT
If the City Council decides to transition to district based elections there will be a fiscal impact due to the costs associated with that transition including the demographer costs, which are estimated to be less than $50,000 and payment of the plaintiffs’ attorney costs of $30,000. Alternatively, if the City Council decides not to transition to district based elections, the City could incur significant costs relating to litigation.

SUBJECT: HOUSING ELEMENT 2023-31 IMPLEMENTATION ROADMAP

RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council by Minute Order, provide direction on the on the Housing Element 2023-31 Implementation Roadmap regarding the following:

1. Does the City Council agree with the Guiding Principles presented in the Roadmap?

2. Does the City Council agree with the key strategies identified?

3. Should programs be added or subtracted from the Table 2, "Proposed Funding Summary by Program" as proposed for funding at this time?

4. Are the funding amounts in Table 2, "Proposed Funding Summary by Program" generally acceptable?

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The Housing Element is an integral part of the Foster City General Plan that serves to identify the community’s housing needs; state the community’s goals and objectives for housing production, rehabilitation, and preservation, and conservation to meet those needs; and define the policies and programs that the community will implement to achieve the stated goals and objectives.

On March 20, 2024, the City Council adopted a General Plan Amendment consisting of revisions to the 2023-31 Housing Element and on April 18, 2024, the city received a letter from the California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) that the

7.1 7.1 Staff Report
808
adopted housing element is in substantial compliance with State Housing Element Law.

Chapter 8, Housing Goals, Polices, and Programs provides the housing goals and policies for the city and describes the implementation programs that the city needs to undertake in the 2023-2031 planning period. These goals, policies, and programs aim to provide additional housing in a way that is balanced with the community’s desires to retain the aspects of Foster City that make it a great place to live, work, and play. It includes seven (7) goals, 37 policies and 106 programs to be implemented over an 8-year period.

We are in the second year of implementation.

Government Code Section 65400 requires each jurisdiction to prepare an annual progress report (APR) on the jurisdiction’s status and progress in implementing its housing element. Each jurisdiction’s APR must be submitted to HCD and the Governor’s Office of Planning and Research (OPR) and HCD by April 1 of each year (covering the previous calendar year. HCD has created the Housing Accountability Unit to ensure that jurisdictions follow through with their Housing Element commitments by implementing its goals, policies and programs.

In order to stay on track for a timely implementation of the goals, policies and programs outlined in the Housing Element, it is critical to analyze priorities, resources, funding opportunities, and budget requirements. There are challenges to implementation, including limited resources (staffing and financial), time constraints, etc.

Staff has prepared a Housing Element 2023-2031 Implementation Roadmap (Roadmap) to include prioritization of programs, financial analysis, and recommendations for the use of the city’s limited available housing funds. The Roadmap includes recommendations for leveraging the city’s available housing funds by using them as matching funds for county and state housing funding opportunities advertised through Notices of Funding Availability (NOFAs). Staff sees this as a working document that will be modified and adjusted as conditions change, such as when new funding opportunities become available, funding applications are not successful, or opportunities for collaboration with other jurisdictions or organizations become available. The Roadmap identifies potential sources of funding and could also provide the staff with the flexibility to apply for future funding opportunities up to a certain amount that are consistent with the Housing Element goals and policies in order to provide staff with the ability to respond to short-turnaround applications.

Staff has prepared a draft Roadmap for Council’s review and direction. Staff will return to the City Council at a future date for: 1) acceptance of the Roadmap and direction to pursue NOFA opportunities, 2) approval of the application for the HCD issued 2024 Local Housing Trust Fund Program Notice of Funding Availability in the amount of up to $5M, and 3) associated budget amendments/appropriations.

BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS
The Roadmap is a strategy to guide planning and manage priorities for implementation of the Housing Element policies and programs, with special focus on the near-term

7.1 7.1 Staff Report
809
priorities to facilitate meeting the seven (7) goals and 37 policies of the Housing Element, and the issued Regional Housing Need Allocation (RHNA) targets for the eight-year planning cycle.

Implementation of the Housing Element includes the unit production goal of 1,896 units (777 market rate and 1,119 below market rate), the City of Foster City’s assessed RHNA target. To reach the assessed target for below market rate (BMR) units, the City of Foster City must either facilitate development of a substantially greater number of market rate units than the target (if it relies solely on the 20% inclusionary housing requirements) and/or the city must facilitate development of 100% affordable projects. In addition to new production, implementation includes preservation of existing affordable units and providing fair housing and other program information and services.

The Roadmap includes prioritization of programs, financial analysis, and recommendations for the use of the city’s limited available housing funds.

The implementation of the Housing Element, requires:
• Staffing resources
• Financial Resources
Staffing Resources
The implementation of the Housing Element is primarily the responsibility of the Community Development Department (CDD). However, other departments have a role to play as well.

Staffing within CDD is limited, with four (4) planners, including the Planning Manager, one (1) Housing Coordinator and the Community Development Director. The city often has to rely on the use of consultants for their expertise and to meet time constraints. The city also relies on the county and other partnerships, including 21 Elements, HIP Housing, MidPen Housing, LifeMoves, Rebuilding Together Peninsula and others.

Financial Resources
The city maintains several funds related to affordable housing. Some of these funds are available for implementation of Housing Element programs and some are dedicated for specific purposes. The various funds and their sources are described in detail in the Roadmap. At the present time, the amount of housing funds available for implementation of Housing Element program adds up to approximately $8 million as shown in Table 1.

The amounts available in each fund may change slightly when the FY 2023-24 closing balances are finalized. Because the main source of funds, the Commercial Linkage Fee (Fund 137), is dependent on the timing, amount, and type of future development, the projection for additional funds is uncertain. In addition, approximately $1.4 million in shared equity for the seven Emerald Bay ownership units would be added to Fund 122 if those units are sold or refinanced after the deed restrictions expire in 2026, but the timing for those sales is uncertain. Staff’s recommendations assume no significant additional

7.1 7.1 Staff Report
810
housing revenues within the 2023-2031 Planning Period. If significant revenues are received, the spending plan in the Roadmap can be adjusted.

In addition to the funds shown in Table 1, funds in Fund 128 General Plan – Building and Construction Ordinance – Zoning Code Maintenance Fund can be used to implement programs that require amendment of the general plan or building or zoning regulations.

The potential sources most relevant to Foster City are summarized below with more detail and information on other potential sources provided in the Roadmap. • County Financial Resources
o Notices of Funding Availability (NOFAs). The County of San Mateo offers two Notices of Funding Availability (NOFAs) per year – one in January and one in April. The County-administered funds come from county, state, and federal sources with corresponding restrictions on eligible uses. These funds are typically provided in the form of low-interest loans. The City of Foster City has been awarded nearly $200,000 in loaned funds for rehabilitation of two of the Existing Unit Purchase Program Homes to transition them to future supportive housing. The City has two (2) years to spend the funds.
o Measure K provides discretionary funding from a half-cent countywide sales tax with the goal of providing local funds for local needs. The city submitted an application for $35,000 on August 2, 2024 for Measure K funds to

7.1 7.1 Staff Report
811
support a pilot Emergency Rental Assistance Program (ERAP). The goal of the ERAP is to provide one-time emergency rent relief of one (1) month of rent up to a maximum of $3,000 for Foster City renters who are at risk of displacement within the next three (3) months. Staff will draft the details of the pilot program and present it to the City Council at a future meeting. While the amount of funding requested is relatively small, the fund has the potential to help a minimum of 10 tenants with one-time grants up to $3,000 each. The total amount being requested is $35,000 including $5,000 for administration of the program.
• Regional Financial Resources
o Housing Endowment and Regional Trust (HEART) provides programs, including First-Time Homebuyer down payment assistance loans, loans to nonprofit developers to build or renovate affordable apartments near transit, and accessory dwelling unit (ADU) plans and handbook.
o HIP Housing, under agreement with the City, provides a Home Sharing program that matches people who have space in their home to share, with people who are searching for an affordable place to live. HIP also provides a Self Sufficiency Program that provides housing scholarships and intensive trauma-informed case management to low-income parents.
o The Bay Area Housing Finance Authority (BAHFA) was established by Assembly Bill 1487 in 2019. Several pilot programs have been initiated, including a pipeline pilot to provide an inventory of affordable housing projects in the pipeline but for which not all funding is secured, preservation programs, and anti-displacement pilot programs. The primary focus is on the 2024 Bay Area Affordable Housing Bond, a potential regional bond measure for the November 2024 ballot to generate $20 billion to build more affordable homes and keep existing homes affordable. Of the proceeds, $2.1 billion is expected to be allocated to San Mateo County. Each county receiving direct funds from the Bond must adopt expenditure plans describing how they will use their funds and the outcomes they hope to achieve. The county plan would be approved by the Board of Supervisors and must demonstrate that the county has consulted with all cities in their county that are not receiving a direct allocation of funds. The county plan would then be required to be approved by BAHFA.
• State and Federal Financial Resources
o Local Housing Trust Fund (LHTF) Program, administered by HCD, will provide $53 million in their 2024 NOFA in matching grants to established Local Housing Trust Funds. HCD issued the 2024 NOFA in July with applications due in September. 15% of the funds are reserved for new LHTFs. Program funds may be used for construction loans and/or permanent financing loans for affordable rental housing, emergency shelters, permanent supportive housing, transitional housing, and

7.1 7.1 Staff Report
812
affordable homebuyer/homeowner projects, including ADUs/JADUs. The minimum request from a new LHTF is $500,000; maximum request is $5 million.
o Prohousing Incentive Program (PIP), administered by HCD, creates incentives for jurisdictions that are compliant with State Housing Element Law and that have enacted specific prohousing policies. These incentives take the form of additional points or other preferences in the scoring of applications for competitive housing and infrastructure programs. In August 2024, 19 jurisdictions received more than $15 million. The next round of applications will be due in December 2024.
o The California Tax Credit Allocation Committee (CTCAC) allocates federal and state Low-Income Housing Tax Credits (LIHTC) to the developers of affordable housing for households at 30% to 80% of median income. This is a competitive process. Metro Senior Apartments, Miramar Apartments, and Alma Point Senior Apartments utilized tax credits.
o Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) is a federal program providing funds to jurisdictions that meet certain population thresholds. The jurisdiction can use the funds for a wide variety of purposes such as social services, capital projects, and affordable housing developments. Foster City does not meet the 50,000-population requirement to be an “entitlement city” and is eligible to apply to receive funds through the County. o Permanent Local Housing Allocation (PLHA) funds, similar to CDBG, are available for a variety of projects and programs that assist in addressing housing needs. The city is able to participate through the County. o Section 8Housing Choice Voucher program is a federal program of the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) administered by the San Mateo County Housing Authority. The voucher provides rental subsidies to low-income households to pay the difference between 30% of their income and the federally approved payment standard. The program allows households to find their own housing. Foster City adopted Chapter

5.72 in 2013 requiring landlords of a structure with more than ten units to accept Section 8 and other types of rental vouchers.
o Veterans Affairs Supportive Housing Voucher (VASH) program combines HUD’s Housing Choice Voucher rental assistance for homeless veterans with case management and clinical services provided by the Department of Veterans Affairs.

Based on the needs identified in the Housing Element, the Roadmap utilizes the following guiding principles:

1. Leverage Funding: actively explore new funding sources and leverage existing

7.1 7.1 Staff Report
813
funding by pursuing matching funds to maximize the City’s ability to provide funding for programs.

2. Encourage Production: create financial and expedited application incentives for developers and homeowners to facilitate production of units; engage in strategic partnerships with nonprofit agencies and developers.

3. Facilitate Special Needs: develop incentives and reduce barriers to access for seniors and those with special needs or disabilities. Engage in strategic partnerships with nonprofit agencies and developers.

4. Support Preservation: create incentive programs and improvements in communication of services available to assist owners in preserving and maintaining their housing units.

5. Protect Tenants: ensure that planned and existing market rate and below market rate rental units are well managed and in compliance with laws, including fair housing and anti-discrimination laws, regulatory agreements, policies, and BMR (below market rate) Guidelines.

6. Promote Sustainability: focus on sustainability, including energy efficiency and conversation, water conservation, walkability, access to public transit, lowering greenhouse gas emissions, and supporting climate change initiatives.

Strategies and Actions
Based on the required Housing Element implementation programs, analysis of financial and staffing resources, the Housing Element Implementation Roadmap includes the following recommended strategies and actions for inclusion in the Housing Element Implementation Roadmap:

A. Obtain and Leverage Funding

1. Leverage available City funding by using it as a match to obtain grants and loans for housing unit production and other programs.

The City’s recent creation of the LHTF, facilitates the ability to leverage existing commercial linkage fee funds to apply for the State’s LHTF NOFA. Programs utilizing the State LHTF must comply with State LHTF program requirements, including income targeting and prevailing wage requirements.

Staff is preparing an application for HCD’s 2024 LHTF NOFA, due in September 2024. If awarded to the city, funds must be distributed by the City in the form of loans. Proposed uses of the funds include (see Table 2 below for draft funding amounts proposed; also reference Table 8 in the Roadmap):
• Assistance to housing developers of very low- and low-income units (H-A-5-e)

7.1 7.1 Staff Report
814
• Low-income homeowner rehabilitation loan program (H-B-2-a) • ADU financial incentive program (H-D-4-b)
If the application for the LHTF NOFA is not successful, staff will prepare a revision of the Roadmap and return to the City Council for direction.

2. Prioritize at least some funds to provide incentives for low income ADUs as the option most likely to result in new units with limited City funds.

This is part of the proposal for HCD’s 2024 LHTF NOFA. Funds would be used for low interest loans in exchange for a 10-year commitment that the ADU would be rented at affordable rates.

3. Prioritize some funds to offer financial subsidies for partnerships with housing developers.

This is part of the proposal for HCD’s 2024 LHTF NOFA. Funds would be used for low interest loans to the housing developers for the creation of affordable housing units.

4. Create and implement a plan for rehabilitation of EUPP homes for supportive housing.

The County has awarded Foster City nearly $200,000 as a loan from the County of San Mateo from their 2024 NOFA. These funds would be used to rehabilitate two of the City’s EUPP homes to prepare them for future use for supportive housing. However, staff recently learned from the County that there will be an additional requirement for an expanded environmental review for the project at an additional cost of 20% or more of the project cost. Therefore, staff recommends delaying use of the funds, which will likely require a future application, to give staff time to explore the potential for future County NOFAs to fund rehabilitation of the additional four EUPP units to consolidate the environmental review to one project, and to prepare a long-term strategy for the EUPP units for City Council guidance and review.

5. Obtain funding for preservation of units for low-income households and those with special needs.

This is part of the proposal for HCD’s 2024 LHTF NOFA. Some of the funds would be used for low interest loans to lower-income owners to improve their homes.

Look for additional funding in the form of loans or matching grants to assist lowincome households or partnerships with nonprofits that can assist low income and special needs households.

7.1 7.1 Staff Report
815

6. Obtain funding for Housing Element programs such as programs requiring workshops, significant outreach, acquisition of software, and financial incentives (e.g. energy efficiency).

A tenant-landlord education workshop is scheduled for August 28, 2024 in partnership with Project Sentinel.

7. Monitor funding sources at the local, state, and federal level for potential sources of funding.

Staff are continually monitoring funding sources at the local, state, and federal level for potential opportunities.

Staff recommends exploring the ProHousing Incentive Program (PIP) for the next round of funding.

Specific funding opportunities include the proposed Bay Area Affordable Housing Bond Ballot Initiative for affordable housing, which would provide $2.1 B to the County of San Mateo. The initiative is on the November 2024 ballot.

B. Provide Incentives

1. Provide administrative incentives to developers and property owners, consisting of streamlined protocols and requirements and reduced fees for and permitting.

Staff has implemented a number of administrative streamlining efforts and continues to make improvements to forms, protocols, and the City’s website and to create expedited processing opportunities for specific programs.

2. Provide financial incentives to facilitate and encourage production of units such as subsidies for below market rate unit production, especially for extremely low and very low income units (including ADUs/JADUs), subsidies for 100% affordable projects, and incentives to reduce the cost of compliance such as waiver of rental registry fees for projects that meet certain conditions. Staff held a roundtable with nonprofit and for-profit housing developers in June 2024 to learn more about constraints and to explore ways the City can provide incentives to facilitate housing production.

For funding incentives, staff will research grants and NOFAs and conduct an analysis on potential opportunities for subsidies or fee waivers based on existing fund balances and potential NOFA funding opportunities. Subsidies or low-interest loans for ADUs/JADUs are likely to be the most cost effective subsidies to produce new units if owners will accept the deed restriction requirement that is a term of HCD’s LHTF program.

For the September 2024 application to HCD for LHTF matching funds, draft

7.1 7.1 Staff Report
816
proposed uses of the LHTF funds include:
a. Assistance to housing developers of very low- and low-income units b. Low-income homeowner rehabilitation loan program (preliminary proposal is up to $100,000 loan at 3% interest, deferred)
c. ADU financial incentive program (preliminary proposal is up to $100,000 loan at 3% interest, deferred)
C. Form Partnerships

1. Conduct extensive outreach to both for-profit and non-profit developers and owners to form partnerships and promote development of opportunity sites.

The City will need to be creative in partnering with developers to ensure that it meets both the above-moderate target of 777 units and the below market rate target of 1,119 units. Incentives to help improve the financial feasibility of projects, such as long-term subsidies, or the acquisition of land need to be considered.

2. Explore flexibility in implementation of the City requirements, such as assistance with impact fee payments or other requirements, that may assist in financing of housing development.

3. Look for opportunities to partner with affordable housing providers on 100% affordable housing developments. These types of developments are more likely to obtain competitive funding from county, state, and federal sources. Such developments bring the City closer to meeting its RHNA targets for affordable units.

D. Monitor Constraints to Implementation

1. Continue roundtable discussions with housing developers to understand potential ways that the City can lessen constraints to housing development.

Examples of key constraints include land costs, construction costs, prevailing wage requirements, and financing limitations. Staff held the first in a series of roundtable discussions with nonprofit and for-profit housing developers in June 2024 to learn more about constraints and to explore ways the City can facilitate housing production.

Funding Summary
Based on the analysis of funds available and the outlined strategy above, the Roadmap includes a funding strategy to utilize existing affordable housing funds together with matching funds to the extent feasible as shown in Table 2. This proposal includes using

5.49 million in City funds of the available $8.0 million, including $4,675,000 of the $5,405,386 in Fund 137 Commercial Linkage Fee, which has a five-year time limit from the date of each receipt. The funding and implementation of associated programs would

7.1 7.1 Staff Report
817
be spread out over the six years remaining in the 2023-2031 Planning Period.

The funding strategy outlined in Table 2 may change as additional financial resources are secured or other conditions change, including not being successful in obtaining an award of HCD LHTF monies. Staff will also collaborate with the City Attorney’s office on a more detailed review to ensure that the proposed uses of the funds are consistent with any restrictions for the specific funding sources. Staff is not proposing any spending from Fund 124 at this time in order to maximize the funds spent from Fund 137 Commercial Linkage Fee that have a time limit. The use of Fund 124 may be revisited for future programs.

Table 2: Proposed Funding Summary by Program
Conclusion
Staff is seeking direction from the City Council on the draft Housing Element Implementation Roadmap, including:

1. Does the City Council agree with the Guiding Principles presented in the Roadmap?

2. Does the City Council agree with the key strategies identified?

3. Should programs be added or subtracted from the Table 2, "Proposed Funding Summary by Program" as proposed for funding at this time?

4. Are the funding amounts in Table 2, "Proposed Funding Summary by Program" generally acceptable?

7.1 7.1 Staff Report

1. Executive Summary
This Housing Element 2023-2031 Implementation
Roadmap (”Roadmap”) provides a strategy to guide
planning and priorities for implementation of the
Housing Element policies and programs, with special
focus on the near-term priorities to facilitate meeting the seven goals, 37 policies, and 106 implementation
programs of the Housing Element, and the issued RHNA
targets for the eight-year planning cycle. The Roadmap
includes prioritization of programs, financial analysis, and recommendations for the use of the City’s limited
available housing funds. The City’s currently available housing funds are approximately $8 million.

Most of the implementation programs can be
accomplished with existing resources, primarily staff
time and City Council approval. A few, however, require additional funding. The Roadmap includes
recommendations for leveraging the City’s available housing funds by using them as matching funds for county and state housing funding opportunities advertised through Notices of Funding Availability (NOFAs). Many of these sources are very competitive and/or require conditions that don’t apply to Foster City at the present time, such as proximity to major transit or “shovel ready” projects. The Roadmap includes the recommended allocation of the City’s funds to the proposed programs.

The Roadmap is a working document that will be modified and adjusted as conditions change, such as when new funding opportunities become available, submitted funding applications are not successful, or opportunities for collaboration with other jurisdictions or organizations become available. Minor adjustments may be made by the Community Development Director with major changes in direction to be reviewed by the City Council. The Roadmap identifies potential sources of funding and provides staff with the flexibility to apply for future funding applications up to $50,000 that are consistent with the Housing Element goals and policies in order to provide staff with the ability to respond to short-turnaround funding opportunities.

2. Introduction
The Roadmap provides a recommended
approach to implement the goals, policies,
and programs contained in the 2023-2031
Housing Element, adopted May 22, 2023
with revisions adopted March 20, 2024. In
addition, the Roadmap ensures use of
appropriate funds and funding opportunities
and provides an overview of financial
planning resources and tools available for
implementing the Housing Element
programs.

The Housing Element is an integral part of
the Foster City General Plan that serves to
identify the community’s housing needs;
state the community’s goals and objectives
for housing production, rehabilitation, and
conservation to meet those needs; and
define the policies and programs that the
community will implement to achieve the
stated goals and objectives.

On March 20, 2024, the City Council adopted
a General Plan Amendment consisting of revisions to the 2023-31 Housing Element and on April 18, 2024, the City received a letter from Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) that the adopted housing element is in substantial compliance with State Housing Element Law.

This Roadmap analyzes priorities, resources, funding opportunities, and budget requirements for implementing the seven goals outlined in the Housing Element.

This Roadmap will be updated periodically by the Community Development Department to reflect completed tasks and progress as well as to refine the Roadmap for future years.

3. Summary of Housing Needs
The Council adopted Housing Element includes seven (7) primary housing needs for the 2023-31 planning period. The seven primary housing needs identified for the City of Foster City are:

1. Provide resources and/or access to resources to address the high cost of housing – about

32.6% of renters and 32.9% of owners are cost burdened or severely cost burdened.

2. Provide opportunities to age in place – Increasing senior population results in needs to age in place, move to multi-family and/or accessible units.

3. Increase the housing supply – the increase in jobs to household ratio creates need for more units.

4. Provide opportunities for home ownership for low- and moderate-income households – costs are out of reach for households earning a low or moderate income.

5. Provide more housing choices for those with disabilities – persons with disabilities face additional housing challenges.

6. Increase the supply of extremely low-income units – very few housing units are available for extremely low-income households.

7. Increase opportunities for a wide variety of housing types – a variety of housing types in all areas of the city are needed to provide housing choices for all types of households.

The Housing Element includes a Housing Needs Action Plan that organizes the strategies and programs of the Housing Element by each need.

The production of additional housing units to address housing needs is a key component of the Housing Element. The Association of Bay Area Governments (ABAG) determines the housing production targets for each jurisdiction in the nine-county Bay Area. Foster City’s Regional Housing Needs Assessment (RHNA) for 2023-2031 is 1,896 units. The breakdown of the number of units based on the affordability levels is shown in Table 1:

TABLE 1: REGIONAL HOUSING NEEDS ASSESSMENT, CITY OF FOSTER CITY BELOW MARKET RATE UNITS 1,119

VERY LOW- INCOME
UNITS

LOW-INCOME
UNITS

MODERATE-INCOME
UNITS

ABOVE MODERATE-INCOME

UNITS TOTAL UNITS
520 299 300 777 1,896
The RHNA is based on factors including population growth, job growth, increasing diversity, an increasing number of seniors, percentage of households with incomes below the area medianincome, home values, rents, and single-family home growth. To meet the RHNA targets for 2023-

2031 will be extremely challenging for Foster City, due in large part to the lack of available vacant land and factors out of the City’s control such as interest rates and construction costs. This Roadmap provides a framework for prioritizing factors that are within the City’s control, including providing opportunities for expediting and streamlining the development review processes, prioritizing certain types of housing, and creating incentives.

4. Housing Element Goals, Policies, and
Implementation Programs
Chapter 8, Housing Goals, Polices, and Programs, of the Housing Element establishes the housing goals and policies for the city and describes the implementation programs that the city needs to undertake in the 2023-2031 planning period. These goals, policies, and programs aim to encourage additional housing in a way that is balanced with the community’s desires to retain the aspects of Foster City that make it a great place to live, work, and play. The seven (7) goals are shown in Table 2.

These seven (7) goals can be seen as part of a framework for new housing production that will address a variety of housing needs, the preservation of existing affordable housing, and strengthen tenant protections.

Chapter 8 of the Housing Element includes policies and programs with various timeframes to work toward these goals. These programs are summarized in Housing Element Table 8-5:

Policy/Program Matrix (see Appendix A). To meet the seven (7) Housing Element goals and housing needs, there are 37 policies and 106 programs included in the Housing Element. Of these 106 programs, 60 are ongoing or need to be done annually, and two need to be done quarterly.

This Roadmap focuses on the programs that require new efforts or programs, with less emphasis on the required continuation of established procedures and programs.

TABLE 2: HOUSING ELEMENT GOALS
H-A Goal: Reinforce the City’s Commitment to Meeting Housing Needs H-B Goal: Protect Existing Housing, Waterfront Character and Resources H-C Goal: Protect the Supply and Affordability of Rental Housing H-D Goal: Pursue Public and Private Redevelopment Opportunities to Increase the Supply of Housing

5. Financial Resources
The implementation of the Housing Element programs, especially the production of affordable housing, requires significant funding. This section of the Plan explores options for internal and external funding resources for implementing affordable housing strategies.

Implementation of the Housing Element includes a housing unit production goal of 1,896 units (777 market rate and 1,119 below market rate), Foster City’s assessed production target. To reach the assessed target for below market rate units, Foster City must either facilitate development of a substantially greater number of market rate units than the target and/or the City must facilitate development of 100% affordable projects. In addition to new housing production, implementation includes preservation of existing affordable units, addressing housing for special needs populations, and affirmatively furthering fair housing by expanding housing mobility and choices as well as providing improved access to fair housing information and services.

A. CITY FINANCIAL RESOURCES
The City maintains several funds related to affordable housing which are summarized below.

Some of these funds are available for implementation of Housing Element programs and some are dedicated for specific purposes. The discussion below describes the purposes, source of revenue, and obligations of the various funds, which are summarized in Table 3, including amounts available for Housing Element implementation.

For the funds that are available for Housing Element implementation, the factors that were used to determine the amounts available for Housing Element implementation, such as deductions for existing obligations, are shown in Table 5 and projected revenues are shown in Table 6.

Successor Agency Affordable Housing Fund (Fund 122)
From the creation of the Community Development Agency (CDA or ‘Agency’) in 1981 to the dissolution of redevelopment agencies by the State in 2012, the City’s major source of funds for affordable housing was the Agency’s set-aside housing fund. At the time the Agency was dissolved, the State “swept” $12.1 million of the Agency’s funds that were not already obligated.

During the tenure of the Agency, 383 units of affordable housing were created, including both rental and ownership units (including First-Time Homebuyer Loans).

In 2012, the City Council exercised its right to become the Successor Housing Agency to the former CDA. All non-cash housing assets and obligations, including the affordable housing units formerly owned and operated by the Agency, and loans receivable from the Metro Center Senior Housing Project and individual borrowers under the former First Time Homebuyer Loan Program, were transferred to the Successor Agency. Fund 122 was established to handle the revenues and expenditures related to these non-cash housing assets and obligations.

7.1 Attachment 1 - Draft Housing Element 2023-2031 Implementation Roadmap 832
H O U S I N G E L E M E N T 2 0 2 3 - 2 0 3 1 I M P L E M E N T A T I O N R O A D M A P 10 | P a g e
A separate fund, Fund 604, established to manage the continuing financial obligations of the Successor Agency, including affordable housing obligations related to Marlin Cove and Miramar Apartments and monitoring affordable housing covenants in various developments, are funded from the tax increment received by the Successor Agency (Fund 604).

The budget for Fund 122 includes continued expenditures related to operating and maintaining the six (6) City-owned affordable housing units, property management services, landscaping, and other maintenance costs, as well as initiatives that were formerly funded by the CDA that support and enhance the availability of affordable housing in Foster City, such as the HIP Housing Homeshare Program and HEART (Housing Endowment and Regional Trust) dues.

In March 2013, the City Council established a policy to retain a fund balance of at least $300,000 to serve as a reserve for capital repairs to the units in the Existing Unit Purchase Program (EUPP).

Revenues going into Fund 122 include rental income from the six EUPP units, first-time homebuyer loan repayments, and Metro Senior Apartments loan repayments. Potential future revenue includes an equity share of the sale or first refinancing of any of the seven deedrestricted affordable ownership units at Emerald Bay after the deed restrictions will expire in 2026.

City Affordable Housing Fund (Fund 124)
The City created a City Affordable Housing Fund in 2012 (Fund 124) with initial funding from the one-time “boomerang” of $3.3 million that was the City/EMID share of the one-time “sweep” of CDA funds. The City dedicated these funds to the development of the 100% affordable Alma Point Senior Apartments.

Revenues into Fund 124 include loan repayments to the city related to Foster Square.

General Plan -Building and Construction Ordinance – Zoning Code Maintenance Fund (Fund 128)
This fund provides funding for the unreimbursed State mandated costs of updating and maintaining the City’s General Plan, Title 15 Buildings and Construction Ordinance and Title 17 Zoning Ordinance Maintenance. The fee is collected at the time of building permit issuance and is based on the value of the application and provides a dedicated funding source for future General Plan updates and zoning and building code updates without relying on the General Fund.

Commercial Linkage Fee (Fund 137)
In 2016, the City Council adopted Ordinance 606, establishing Chapter 17.88, Affordable Housing Commercial Linkage Fee. This fee provides a mechanism for new commercial development to pay a fee to offset the impacts of the development on the need for affordable housing. The first revenue of $360,580 into this fund occurred in FY 2020-2021. A payment of $4,789,410 was made in March 2024 by Gilead Sciences.

H O U S I N G E L E M E N T 2 0 2 3 - 2 0 3 1 I M P L E M E N T A T I O N R O A D M A P 11 | P a g e
The nexus studies documenting the need for this type of fee are available on the City’s website (https://www.fostercity.org/commdev/page/residential-development-standards-and-fees).

Commercial Linkage Fee revenues are subject to spending and reporting requirements under the Mitigation Fee Act.

Revenues into Fund 137 are anticipated from future development projects.

Below Market Rate Inclusionary In-Lieu Fees (Fund account to be established) In March 2022, the City adopted Ordinance 644, establishing Chapter 17.90, Below Market Rate Inclusionary Housing Program, which allows payment of a Below Market Rate Housing In-Lieu fees for developments of five (5) to nine (9) units. Fractional fees are also allowed for all developments for requirements of less than 0.50 below market rate units. No projects have been subject as yet to these fees.

Below Market Rate Housing In-Lieu fees revenues are subject to reporting requirements under the Mitigation Fee Act.

Tenant Relocation Assistance Fund – Foster’s Landing (Fund 138) In FY 2020-21, the City established the Tenant Relocation Assistance Fund to fund programs, in partnership with Essex Properties to help minimize the impacts of expiring affordable housing covenants to the residents of Foster's Landing. This program has been completed.

Workforce Housing (Fund 139)
In August 2022, the City of Foster City purchased 22 workforce housing units located in the Pilgrim Triton Master Plan development project using $7 million from the Capital Asset Acquisition and Replacement Fund (Fund 326). The Workforce Housing Program is designed to address the needs of first responders, public employees, and teachers in the very low-, low-, and moderate-income categories in order to make it possible for public servants to live near where they work. At the direction of the City Council, any net income from the rental operation of the 22 units must be used to repay Fund 326 (City Resolution No. 2022-42).

Equipment Replacement Fund – Workforce Housing (Fund 140) This fund is held for replacement and acquisition of 22 workforce housing units’ fixtures and equipment.

Local Housing Trust Fund (Fund 145)
A Local Housing Trust Fund (LHTF) isn’t necessarily a new funding source but provides a mechanism to aggregate funds from various sources. It enables Foster City to apply for matching funds from some other sources. Foster City created a Local Housing Trust Fund on February 20,

2024 (City Resolution No. 2024-9). The dedicated funding source for the LHTF is Commercial Linkage Fees.

Successor Agency of the Community Development Agency (Fund 604) The Successor Agency fund is used to account for assets held for Foster City’s Successor Agency to the City’s former CDA. The Successor Agency Fund is a Private-Purpose Trust Fund that accounts for the accumulation of resources to be used for payments of recognized obligations.

The remaining obligation is the payment of tax increment subsidy and utility allowance for the Marlin Cove Apartments.

The financial activities of the fund are excluded from the Government-wide financial statements but are presented in separate Fiduciary Fund financial statements.

B. COUNTY FINANCIAL RESOURCES
The County of San Mateo offers two Notices of Funding Availability (NOFAs) per year – one in January and one in April. The County-administered funds come from county, state, and federal sources. The City of Foster City has been awarded nearly $200,000 in loaned funds for

7.1 Attachment 1 - Draft Housing Element 2023-2031 Implementation Roadmap 836
H O U S I N G E L E M E N T 2 0 2 3 - 2 0 3 1 I M P L E M E N T A T I O N R O A D M A P 14 | P a g e
rehabilitation of two of the Existing Unit Purchase Program Homes to transition them to future supportive housing. The City has two (2) years to spend the funds.

The second NOFA is for low interest loans for development construction. Foster City did not have an active project for the 2024 NOFA. However, staff may apply for a future NOFA if the City of Foster City partners with a nonprofit affordable housing developer and has a specific site eligible for development. This type of funding is typically used for 100% affordable projects that need to assemble financing from multiple sources to make the development possible. The use of this type of funding includes a requirement to comply with prevailing wage, so is not usually attractive to developers of mixed-income projects. The Alma Point 100% affordable project utilized County funds through this process.

In addition to the two NOFAs named above, the County also offers discretionary funding through Measure K. Measure K is a half-cent, countywide sales tax. The measure was placed on the November 2016 ballot to extend a previously approved half-cent tax until 2043 with the goal of providing local funds for local needs.1 Measure K funding is allocated annually for the County by the County Board of Supervisors for seven (7) categories of need, including:
 Public Safety
 Health and Mental Health
 Youth and Education
 Housing and Homelessness
 Parks and Environment
 Older Adults and Veterans Services
 Community Services
The city submitted an application for $35,000 on August 2, 2024 for Measure K funds to support a pilot Emergency Rental Assistance Program (ERAP). The goal of the ERAP is to provide one-time emergency rent relief of one (1) month of rent up to a maximum of $3,000 for Foster City renters who are at risk of displacement within the next three (3) months. Staff will draft the details of the pilot program and present it to the City Council at a future meeting. While the amount of funding requested is relatively small, the fund has the potential to help a minimum of 10 tenants with one-time grants up to $3,000 each. The total amount being requested is $35,000 including $5,000 for administration of the program.

In addition, the County separately tracks one-time loans and initiatives that are funded at the recommendation of a member of the Board. These initiatives are approved by the full Board of Supervisors outside of the budget process to quickly meet unanticipated needs, leverage other funding sources and fill critical service gaps. These are collectively categorized as “District Specific” or “District Discretionary” initiatives. For fiscal year 24-25, the County Board of Supervisors has allocated $4 million to discretionary grant funding to cover funding gaps in 1 From the County’s Measure K Website: About Measure K – San Mateo County Measure K (smcmeasurek.org).

affected County services within the Board priority areas of Children, Families and Seniors; Housing and Homelessness; and Emergency Preparedness.

C. REGIONAL FINANCIAL RESOURCES
Housing Endowment and Regional Trust (HEART)
HEART is a 501(c)(3) that was founded in 2003 as a public/private partnership among the cities in San Mateo County, the County, and the business, nonprofit, education, and labor communities to create more affordable housing in San Mateo County. To date, HEART has invested over $19 million to fund over 1,300 affordable homes. HEART’s programs include First-Time Homebuyer down payment assistance loans, loans to nonprofit developers to build or renovate affordable apartments near transit, and ADU plans and handbook. HEART notes on their website that for the developer loans, preference will be given to applications offering a greater number of affordable units, based on HEART funding per unit, and/or deeper affordability targeting. As well as in areas that include, but are not limited to: disadvantaged communities, infill development, and high/low resource and high segregation and poverty areas; high-density developments in Location Efficient Communities; and/or projects with proximity to public transportation.

HIP Housing
HIP Housing, under agreement with Foster City, provides a Home Sharing program that matches people who have space in their home to share, with people who are searching for an affordable place to live. HIP also provides a Self Sufficiency Program that provides housing scholarships and intensive trauma-informed case management to low-income parents and emancipated foster youth. HIP Housing Affordable Ventures (HHAV) also manages the six City-owned units in the Existing Unit Purchase Program as well as the 22-unit City-owned Workforce Apartments.

Bay Area Housing Finance Authority (BAHFA)
This regional housing finance authority was established by Assembly Bill 1487 in 2019. Several pilot programs have been initiated, including a pipeline pilot to provide an inventory of affordable housing projects in the pipeline but for which not all funding is secured, preservation programs, and anti-displacement pilot programs. The primary focus is on the 2024 Bay Area Affordable Housing Bond, a potential regional bond measure for the November 2024 ballot to generate $20 billion to build more affordable homes and keep existing homes affordable. Of the proceeds, $2.1 billion is expected to be allocated to San Mateo County. Each county receiving direct funds from the Bond must adopt expenditure plans describing how they will use their funds and the outcomes they hope to achieve. The county plan would be approved by the Board of Supervisors and must demonstrate that the county has consulted with all cities in their county that are not receiving a direct allocation of funds. The county plan would then be required to be approved by BAHFA.

Additional Information on Specific Funding Sources
Low-Income Housing Tax Credits (LIHTC)
The California Tax Credit Allocation Committee (CTCAC) allocates federal and state tax credits to the developers of affordable housing for households at 30% to 80% of median-income. This is a competitive process. Metro Senior Apartments, Miramar Apartments, and Alma Point Senior Apartments utilized tax credits.

Community Development Block Grant (CDBG)
CDBG is a federal program providing funds to jurisdictions that meet certain population thresholds. The jurisdiction can use the funds for a wide variety of purposes such as social services, capital projects, and affordable housing developments. Foster City does not meet the 50,000-population requirement to be an “entitlement city” and receive its own allocation of CDBG funds. The City has participated with San Mateo County via a Cooperation Agreement since 1975. Participation as part of the “Urban County” increases the amount of funds that come to the County for housing programs and makes the City eligible for grant opportunities or other programs that utilize these funds. The City has utilized these funds through the Rehabilitation Loan Program (now discontinued) and funding through other organizations, such as Rebuilding Together Peninsula. The Alma Point affordable housing project by MidPen Housing was able to use HOME funds, in part because the City had a Cooperation Agreement.

Housing and Urban Development Department (HUD)
HUD awards discretionary funding through over 20 Grant programs that support HUD initiatives, including Affordable Housing Development and Preservation, Community and Economic Development, Environment and Energy, Fair Housing, Homelessness, Homeownership, Rental Assistance, Supportive Housing and Services. NOFAs are released at various times during the year and applications are generally due in May through November, depending on the program.

Permanent Local Housing Allocation (PLHA)
PLHA funds are awarded similar to the CDBG program. The funds can be used for a variety of projects and programs that assist in addressing housing needs. The City is able to participate through the County.

Section 8 Housing Choice Vouchers
The Housing Choice voucher program is a federal program of the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) administered by the San Mateo County Housing Authority. The voucher provides rental subsidies to low-income households to pay the difference between 30% of their income and the federally approved payment standard. The program allows households to find their own housing. Foster City adopted Chapter 5.72 in 2013 requiring landlords of a structure with more than ten units to accept Section 8 and other types of rental vouchers.

Effective January 1, 2020, California source of income protections went into effect requiring all landlords in California to accept Section 8 and VASH (Veteran) vouchers and other forms or rental assistance.

Veterans Affairs Supportive Housing (VASH) Vouchers
The VASH voucher program combines HUD’s Housing Choice Voucher rental assistance for homeless veterans with case management and clinical services provided by the Department of Veterans Affairs.

Other State Resources
Many other housing funding programs are administered by HCD. Housing developers and housing organizations are also eligible to apply for many of these programs.

E. EXISTING AND PROJECTED REVENUES FROM EXISTING SOURCES Existing funding resources as of the beginning of FY 2024-25 are shown in Table 5 below. The existing funding resources total is approximately $8.0 million. Table 5 does not include Fund 128 General Plan – Building and Construction Ordinance – Zoning Code Maintenance Fund that can be used to fund amendments to the General Plan and municipal code.

Projected revenues based on existing funding resources and likely revenues are shown in Table 6 below. The beginning balance of $8.0 M is anticipated to grow to $8.4 M by FY 2029-30. Because future revenue is primarily dependent on commercial development to generate commercial linkage fees, the timing of future revenue is not very predictable. This reinforces the need to leverage the City’s existing funds as much as possible, i.e., to use funds as a match for County, State, or Federal funds.

The County Loan for Existing Unit Purchase Program (EUPP) renovation is shown as approved by the County, and if accepted by the City will be restricted to the EUPP Renovation project.

6. Staffing Resources
A. FOSTER CITY
The implementation of the Housing Element is primarily the responsibility of the Community Development Department. The Community Development Department’s two divisions each play a key role in supporting the provision of housing. The Planning/Code Enforcement Division ensures that new developments meet City standards as provided in the General Plan, Municipal Code, and other City policies. The City Council approved the position of Housing Coordinator in FY 2022-23. The position was filled in January 2023. The Housing Coordinator monitors developments with below market rate units subject to Affordable Housing Regulatory Agreements, including review of annual reports and advising on issues as they arise. This includes the six City-owned units in the Existing Unit Purchase program and the new 22-unit Workforce Apartments project. The Planning/Code Enforcement Division staff also oversee implementation of other programs of the Housing Element. The Code Enforcement program is responsible for maintaining the appearance of the community in accordance with the requirements of the Municipal Code.

The Building Inspection Division is responsible for ensuring that all construction project permitting within the City complies with the California Building Code, the Foster City Municipal Code and all other applicable codes and regulations.

The City utilizes consulting services when necessary to provide expanded capacity.

Funding is primarily from the General Fund with additional funds from Fund 128 General Plan – Building and Construction Ordinance – Zoning Code Maintenance Fund for work involving amendments to the General Plan and building and zoning regulations in the Municipal Code.

Figure 1 illustrates the make-up of the Community Development Department.

B. SAN MATEO COUNTY
The San Mateo County Department of Housing includes the Housing & Community Development (HCD) and the Housing Authority of the County of San Mateo (HACSM). The HACSM administers the HUD Section 8 Housing Choice Voucher Program. The HCD team administers the County’s Affordable Housing Fund and other housing programs.

The San Mateo County Department of Housing provides support to city staff by advising the city regarding the applicability of County NOFA opportunities to meet the city’s needs, including helping to ensure the proposed program meets the requirements of the specific funding source.

When there is a specific housing development requesting funding, such as Alma Point, the county provides support and assistance in securing funding from various sources.

The San Mateo County Human Services Agency coordinates programs to address homelessness in San Mateo County.

C. PARTNERSHIPS
Foster City works with many local partners to provide and support housing opportunities. Some of these include:
 Bridge Housing: Owns and operates the 100% affordable Metro Senior Apartments; City staff serves on the Board of Directors for Metro Senior Apartments.  MidPen Housing: Owns and operates the 100% affordable Alma Point Senior Apartments.  Property Managers of Mixed-Income Apartment Developments: This includes the property managers at several apartment developments: Marlin Cove, Miramar, Plaza, Triton, and 100 Grand.

The Community Development Department’s strategies and actions to implement the Housing Element include focus on the following six guiding principles, listed in priority order:

1. Leverage Funding: actively explore new funding sources and leverage existing funding by pursuing matching funds to maximize the City’s ability to provide funding for housing programs.

2. Encourage Production: create financial and expedited application incentives for developers and homeowners to facilitate production of units; engage in strategic partnerships with nonprofit agencies and developers.

3. Facilitate Special needs: develop incentives and reduce barriers to access for seniors and those with special needs or disabilities. Engage in strategic partnerships with nonprofit agencies and developers.

4. Support Preservation: create incentive programs and improvements in communication of services available to assist owners in preserving and maintaining their housing units.

5. Protect Tenants: ensure that planned and existing market rate and below market rate rental units are well managed and in compliance with laws, including fair housing and antidiscrimination laws, regulatory agreements, policies, and BMR Guidelines.

6. Promote Sustainability: focus on sustainability, including energy efficiency and conversation, water conservation, walkability, access to public transit, lowering greenhouse gas emissions, and supporting climate change initiatives.

B. SUMMARY OF STRATEGIES AND ACTIONS
Implementation of the Housing Element centers on the housing unit production goal of 1,896 units (777 market rate and 1,119 below market rate), the City of Foster City’s assessed production target. To reach the assessed target for below market rate units, the City of Foster City must either facilitate development of a substantially greater number of market rate units than the targeted and/or the City must facilitate development of 100% affordable projects. In addition to new production, implementation includes preservation of existing affordable units and providing fair housing and other program information and services.

Challenges to implementation include:
 Economic conditions – current costs of construction/labor, high interest rates, unemployment rates, the sharp downturn in the tech industry, inflation, etc.  Foster City’s location away from the Caltrain corridor – due to the lack of a major public transportation corridor running through Foster City, the City is not eligible for funding reserved through MTC/ABAG for priority development areas (PDAs) as outlined in Plan Bay

Area, and other transit-oriented development (TOD) funding opportunities offered at the federal and state level.
 Foster City’s land constraints – lack of available land for development.  Foster City’s development impact fees and current inclusionary requirement of 20% of units contribute to the cost of building new housing units.
 Limited local funds for housing – Foster City’s current affordable housing fund balance of $8M is very limited in the high-cost housing market of San Mateo County.

Key strategies and actions for implementing the Housing Element include:

A. OBTAIN AND LEVERAGE FUNDING

1. Leverage available City funding by using it as a match to obtain grants and loans for housing unit production and other programs.

The City’s recent creation of the Local Housing Trust Fund, facilitates the ability to leverage existing commercial linkage fee funds to apply for the State’s Local Housing Trust Fund NOFA. Programs utilizing the State LHTF must comply with State LHTF program requirements, including income targeting and prevailing wage requirements.

Apply for HCD’s 2024 LHTF NOFA, due in September 2024. If awarded to the City, funds must be distributed by the City in the form of loans. Proposed uses of the funds include:
a. Assistance to housing developers of very low- and low-income units (H-A-5-e) b. Low-income homeowner rehabilitation loan program (H-B-2-a) c. ADU financial incentive program (H-D-4-b)

2. Prioritize at least some funds to provide incentives for low-income ADUs as the option most likely to result in new units with limited City funds.

This is part of the proposal for HCD’s 2024 LHTF NOFA. Some of the funds would be used for low interest loans in exchange for a 10-year commitment that the ADU would be rented at affordable rates.

3. Prioritize some funds to offer financial subsidies for partnerships with housing developers.

This is part of the proposal for HCD’s 2024 LHTF NOFA. Some of the funds would be used for low interest loans to housing developers for creation of affordable housing units.

4. Create and implement a plan for rehabilitation of EUPP homes for supportive housing.

The County has awarded Foster City nearly $200,000 as a loan from the County of San Mateo from their 2024 NOFA. These funds would be used to rehabilitate two of the City’s EUPP homes to prepare them for future use for supportive housing. However, staff recently learned from the County that there will be an additional requirement for a more extensive environmental review for the project at an additional cost of 20% of the project

H O U S I N G E L E M E N T 2 0 2 3 - 2 0 3 1 I M P L E M E N T A T I O N R O A D M A P 27 | P a g e
cost or more. Therefore, staff recommends delaying use of the funds, which will likely require a future application, to give staff time to explore the potential for future County NOFAs to fund rehabilitation of the additional four EUPP units to consolidate the environmental review to one project, and to prepare a long-term strategy for the EUPP units for City Council guidance and review.

5. Obtain funding for preservation of units for low-income households and those with special needs.

This is part of the proposal for HCD’s 2024 LHTF NOFA. Some of the funds would be used for low interest loans to lower-income owners to improve their homes.

Look for additional funding in the form of loans or matching grants to assist low-income households or partnerships with nonprofits that can assist low-income and special needs households.

6. Obtain funding for Housing Element programs such as programs requiring workshops, significant outreach, acquisition of software, and financial incentives (e.g. energy efficiency) for which funding might be available.

A tenant-landlord education workshop is scheduled for August 28, 2024 in partnership with Project Sentinel.

7. Monitor funding sources at the local, state, and federal level for potential sources of funding.

Staff are continually monitoring funding sources at the local, state, and federal level for potential opportunities.

Staff recommends exploring the ProHousing Incentive Program (PIP) for the next round of funding.

Specific funding opportunities include the proposed Bay Area Affordable Housing Bond Ballot Initiative for affordable housing, which would provide $2.1 B to the County of San Mateo. The initiative is on the November 2024 ballot.

B. PROVIDE INCENTIVES

1. Provide administrative incentives to developers and property owners, consisting of streamlined protocols and requirements and reduced fees for and permitting.

Staff has implemented a number of administrative streamlining efforts already and continues to make improvements to forms, protocols, and the City’s website and to create expedited processing opportunities for specific programs.

2. Provide financial incentives to facilitate and encourage production of units such as subsidies for below market rate unit production, especially for extremely low- and very low-income units (including ADUs/JADUs), subsidies for 100% affordable

7.1 Attachment 1 - Draft Housing Element 2023-2031 Implementation Roadmap 850
H O U S I N G E L E M E N T 2 0 2 3 - 2 0 3 1 I M P L E M E N T A T I O N R O A D M A P 28 | P a g e
projects, and incentives to reduce the cost of compliance such as waiver of rental registry fees for projects that meet certain conditions. Staff held a roundtable with nonprofit and for-profit housing developers in June 2024 to learn more about constraints and to explore ways the City can facilitate housing production.

For funding incentives, staff will research grants and NOFAs and conduct an analysis on potential opportunities for subsidies or fee waivers based on existing fund balances and potential NOFA funding opportunities. Subsidies of ADUs/JADUs are likely to be the most cost effective subsidies to produce new units if owners will accept the deed restriction requirement that is a term of HCD’s LHTF program.

For the September 2024 application to HCD for LHTF matching funds, proposed uses of the LHTF funds include:
a. Assistance to housing developers of very low- and low-income units b. Low-income homeowner rehabilitation loan program
c. ADU financial incentive program
C. FORM PARTNERSHIPS

1. Conduct extensive outreach to both for-profit and non-profit developers and owners to form partnerships and promote development of opportunity sites.

The City will need to be creative in partnering with developers to ensure that it meets both the above-moderate target of 777 units and the below market rate target of 1,119 units. Incentives to help improve the financial feasibility of projects, such as long-term subsidies, or the acquisition of land need to be considered.

2. Explore flexibility in implementation of the City requirements, such as assistance with impact fee payments or other requirements, that may assist in financing of housing development.

3. Look for opportunities to partner with affordable housing providers on 100% affordable housing developments. These types of developments are more likely to obtain competitive funding from county, state, and federal sources. Such developments bring the City closer to meeting its RHNA targets for affordable units.

D. MONITOR CONSTRAINTS TO IMPLEMENTATION

1. Continue roundtable discussions with housing developers to better understand potential ways that the City can help mitigate constraints to housing development.

Examples of key constraints include land costs, construction costs, prevailing wage requirements, and financing limitations. Staff held the first in a series of roundtable discussions with nonprofit and for-profit housing developers in June 2024 to learn more about constraints and to explore ways the City can facilitate housing production.

D. FUNDING RECOMMENDATIONS
In addition to the programs noted above in Table 7 as needing funds, several programs are included in the Housing Element for later years that would also require funding. These programs could be considered if there’s a new infusion of funds from commercial linkage fees:
 H-E-1-b: New Units for City-Owned Affordable Housing Program. If funds are available, purchase existing older single-family or duplex units or other units to provide affordable rental housing for larger families.
 H-E-5-a: New Agreements for Affordability of Existing Rental Units. If a source of funding can be identified, work with owners of existing market rate rental units to include affordability agreements.

7.1 Attachment 1 - Draft Housing Element 2023-2031 Implementation Roadmap 855
H O U S I N G E L E M E N T 2 0 2 3 - 2 0 3 1 I M P L E M E N T A T I O N R O A D M A P 33 | P a g e
 H-F-1-e: Home Sharing for Special Needs Population. Support the HIP Housing Home Sharing Program as part of a collection of policies programs and practices for addressing special housing needs, including seniors, those living with disabilities, those at risk of homelessness and female householders.

Note: a funding amount is included in the funding recommendations for a program to be developed to offer a financial incentive to encourage home sharing for people with special needs.
 H-F-2-a: Emergency Housing Assistance. To the extent funds are available, participate and allocate funds, as appropriate, for County and non-profit programs providing emergency shelter and related counseling services. (Note: this has been included in the City’s annual budget.)
 H-F-2-b: Emergency Shelter Uses. To the extent funds are available, the City will contribute to non-profit agencies involved in providing housing for the homeless in San Mateo County. (Note: this has been included in the City’s annual budget.) The units in the EUPP will require renovation in future years prior to transition to supportive housing (and also would require renovation even if retained as affordable rentals). Staff will develop a draft renovation schedule and transition plan for a City Council Study Session and Council direction at a future date:
 H-E-1-a: Existing Unit Purchase Program-Opportunities for Supportive Housing. Implement the tenant preferences adopted in January 2023 for the Existing Unit Purchase Program (Cityowned units) so that when vacancies occur, housing providers have an opportunity to propose renting the unit to provide supportive housing for people with disabilities and if no acceptable proposals are received, then continue to maintain the existing units owned by the City as rentals for large very low- and low-income families.

Based on the analysis of funds available and the outlined strategy, Table 8, Proposed Funding Summary by Program, includes a funding strategy to utilize existing affordable housing funds together with matching funds to the extent feasible. This proposal includes using 5.49 million in City funds of the available $8.0 million, including $4,675,000 of the $5,405,386 in Fund 137 Commercial Linkage Fee, which has a five-year time limit from the date of each receipt. The funding and implementation of associated programs would be spread out over the six years remaining in the 2023-2031 Planning Period.

The funding strategy outlined in Table 8 may change as additional financial resources are secured or other conditions change, including not being successful in obtaining an award of HCD LHTF monies. Staff will also collaborate with the City Attorney’s office on a more detailed review to ensure that the proposed uses of the funds are consistent with any restrictions for the specific funding sources. Staff is not proposing any spending from Fund 124 at this time in order to maximize the funds spent from Fund 137 Commercial Linkage Fee that have a time limit. The use of Fund 124 may be revisited for future programs.

PUBLIC PARTICIPATION PLAN

RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council, by Minute Order, review and accept the attached Parks Master Plan Public Participation Plan.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
On May 6, 2024, the City Council awarded a Professional Services Agreement to Wallace Roberts & Todd Design, LLC (WRT) to provide professional planning and consultant support services for the Parks Master Plan Project (CIP 301-682). The scope of services for this project includes the parks master plan preparation, an inventory and assessment report, project management, development and execution of a public engagement process, working closely with staff to prepare the Plan, and creating a document for distribution to the public.

On July 22, 2024, WRT met with staff to discuss the community engagement strategy, including the timeline, task force, stakeholder and focus group meetings, project website, and surveys. Based on this discussion, an initial Parks Master Plan Public Participation Strategy was drafted for City Council’s review and acceptance.

7.2 7.2 Staff Report
890

BACKGROUND
In 2018, the City Council hired Placeworks, Inc. to assess the current Parks System and develop a long-term vision and strategy to meet the needs of our increasingly diverse population for the foreseeable future. The initial work of Placeworks resulted in a preliminary assessment of City parks, and a community survey that was distributed to determine any unmet needs. However, the City’s priorities changed and the Placeworks contract was terminated in the spring of 2019 before several of the planned public engagement tasks were completed.

In June of 2021, the City Council returned to the idea of developing a comprehensive plan for the entire City’s park system. As a first step, the City Council directed staff to create a community engagement strategy and survey tool and to seek comments and suggestions from the Parks and Recreation Committee on the outreach strategy before presenting it to the City Council for further direction. An initial survey was conducted by ZenCity in 2021, and results summarized in their December 2021 report. The survey results, while broad and non-specific, provided insights into park usage patterns, preferences, and suggestions for enhancing parks, as well as the accessibility and convenience of park amenities. However, given several management changes and limited capacity, the project was put on hold until a new Parks and Recreation Director was hired to lead the initiative.

On December 18, 2023, the City Council approved the Request for Proposal/Qualifications (RFP/Q) for professional services to develop a new Parks Master Plan. The RFP/Q was issued on January 4, 2024, with proposals due by February 2024.

On May 6, 2024, the City Council awarded a contract to WRT. Part C of the scope of services in the signed agreement includes a robust Public Participation Plan:

C. Outreach and Public Participation

1. WRT will develop and coordinate a robust Public Participation Plan that includes open houses, workshops, intercept events, pop-up kiosks, and online surveys. In coordination with the City, WRT will schedule public meetings with the community, focus groups and stakeholders to gather all information needed. WRT will recommend to the City the most effective way to reach as many people as possible including users and non-users of the existing parks and recreational areas. As a starting point, WRT proposes the following:
• Meetings with stakeholders, individually or in small groups (up to 3). Stakeholders should represent a cross-section of park users and residents.
• Pop-up events early in the process to raise awareness of the planning effort and gather informal feedback on vision and values (up to 3).
• Community workshops or open houses (two) that enable the planning team to share findings and relevant context and get input

7.2 7.2 Staff Report
891
on priorities for the future parks, recreation and open space system.

2. In coordination with the City, WRT will administer a project website and other online engagement tools to share ideas with the community members and keep them apprised of project updates. We anticipate using the website to conduct online surveys at two points in the process, coinciding with the two community workshops.

3. WRT will prepare handouts, flyers, posters, press releases and other media for distribution including posting on the City’s website and social media.

4. WRT will consult will and provide recommendations to a Parks Master Plan Task Force that may be created by the City which may include representatives from a wide cross section of community groups and advisory committees, such as the Planning Commission, Parks and Recreation Committee, City staff, and key stakeholder groups. The group will serve as a sounding board to vet options and strategies based on their inherent community knowledge and work as project ambassadors who will provide updates to their constituents and promote public participation. We propose 4 presentations to the Task Force.

5. WRT will conduct formal presentations to up to four meetings total of the City Council, and Parks and Recreation Committee, in addition to providing support for written staff reports and other important written documents.

ANALYSIS
WRT in coordination with City staff developed a comprehensive and strategic Public Participation Plan which will help advance and inform the project through key milestones in the Needs Assessment phase.

Core to the multilayered Public Participation Plan is the formation of a Parks Master Plan Task Force made up of volunteers from a cross section of community and facility user groups and advisory committees, such as the Planning Commission, Parks and Recreation Committee and City staff. Members serving on advisory committees will select their representative(s) to serve on the task force, while others will be asked to complete an application and interest form and selected by the project team. The proposed task force composition was informed by the previous community engagement work that occurred recently with the Recreation Center Rebuild Project (RCRP) and ones mentioned earlier in the staff report. The proposed composition of the task force will aim to include the following representation:

7.2 7.2 Staff Report
892
Parks and Recreation Director (1) Parks Maintenance Manager (1) Recreation Manager (1) Parks and Recreation Committee (2) Planning Commission (1) Citizen Sustainability Advisory Committee (1) Youth Advisory Committee (2) Sports Organizations (3)
Cultural Group (1) Lagoon User Group (1)
55+ Seniors Club (1) Tennis Club (1)
Pickleball Club (1) Rotary Club (1)
Lions Club (1) Resident at large (1)
In addition to the proposed task force, WRT and staff are proposing to conduct focus group meetings with various park stakeholder groups whose interests may range from programming in the parks and sports fields, lagoon users, park concessionaires, dog owners, and other parks and recreation related agencies and organizations (school district, BCDC etc.).

The Public Participation Plan includes various opportunities for public participation including offering two Community Open Houses and Workshops for residents and facility users to attend, hosting various intercept events and pop-up kiosks, conducting both a statistically valid survey as well as other online surveys to reach the community where they are at. In addition, a project website will be created and maintained throughout the project allowing the community to stay informed of the project development and progress, as well as through various social media platforms. As part of the public participation process, The City Council will also receive frequent updates by staff, as well as consultant led presentations at key milestones of the project, all of which the public will have an opportunity to provide input. The Public Participation Plan as proposed by WRT and staff is attached.

FOSTER CITY PARKS MASTER PLAN

PUBLIC PARTICIPATION PLAN
August 8, 2024

INTRODUCTION
Foster City is developing a Parks Master Plan to guide parks and recreation improvements of existing facilities and to plan for future growth and expansion. Public participation will be vital for understanding and incorporating Foster City residents’ values and aspirations into the Parks Master Plan and for creating champions for its implementation. This document's purpose is to identify guidelines and goals for stakeholder and public participation throughout the planning process. This document is intended to be a living document, and the WRT team will work with Foster City staff to evaluate its success at key points during the planning process.

The public engagement activities listed below may not reflect the project scope verbatim, as it has been modified in coordination with City staff to ensure that the Participation Strategy represents the best possible approach to engage the community.

PUBLIC PARTICIPATION GOALS
One of the most crucial steps for an inclusive, equitable, and diverse Master Plan is to understand the local community character, needs, and aspirations. Thus, the public participation process is vital as it helps build support within the local community and ultimately creates long-term stewards for the parks system throughout the city.

Within this context, the goals for public participation include:

1. Design a public participation process that helps capture the public’s perception, needs, and aspirations for Foster City’s parks system.

2. Create an engaging, culturally sensitive, and accessible process that allows for active feedback while also educating participants about the process, scope, and limitations of Master Plan.

3. Design engagement to involve a wide range of age groups, ethnicities, and races, especially hard-to-reach residents, linguistically isolated communities, and underrepresented neighborhoods by providing multiple formats, times, and locations for the community to engage.

ENGAGEMENT TIMELINE
Figure 1 illustrates the approximate timeline for the key engagement events discussed in this document and how they correspond to the overall project phases and deliverables.

OUTREACH COMPONENTS
Task C.1.1: Intercept Events + Pop-Ups
Approach
WRT will conduct three pop-up tabling events at key community destinations and events, with City staff facilitating additional events as deemed appropriate. These events will provide an opportunity for the community to learn about the project and provide input in a place where they are already congregating. Pop-up events may include displays, interactive games, fact sheets, and comment cards. These events will be held early in the process as part of the visioning stage, including during Summer Days in August 2024.

Deliverables
• Pop-up booth with interactive boards, handouts, and/or activities to inform and engage the public
• Results Summary (including photos, graphs, and narrative text, as appropriate)

These meetings will be grouped over two days and conducted in a hybrid format, allowing for in-person and virtual attendance. In addition to discussing the park system and desired outcomes for the Master Plan, we will also focus on how to engage the community most effectively.

These meetings are intended as listening sessions to understand various perspectives on what should be included in the Master Plan; what’s working and not working in the City’s park system; and what they see as big opportunities and obstacles. Another key goal for these meetings is to 1 Our translations will be done using online translation software and WRT Staff with language knowledge if available.

11 Public Participation Plan
Foster City Parks Master Plan
Approach
Our partner ETC Institute will develop and administer a Community Needs Assessment Survey that will accurately identify community needs and priorities for the parks, recreation facilities, programs, and services based on a representative sample of the community at large.

The survey will be up to six pages long, accompanied by a City-branded and signed cover letter, and will cover topics such as:
• Overall satisfaction and agreement with benefits of parks and recreation • Park/facility utilization and perception on condition • Program participation and quality
• Facility and program needs and importance
• General support for specific actions/improvements
• Funding (general or specific)
• Demographics
There could also be specific focus areas, such as:
• Lagoon access and usability
• Recreational tourism
• Inclusivity (accessibility, all-abilities amenities/programs, universal design, etc.) • Special events
• Social services (senior citizen programs, service choices, etc.) • Art, culture, and history
Note that the statistically-valid survey is part of the Needs Assessment task, not the Outreach and Public Participation task; however, it is an important element in our understanding of community priorities so is included in this document.

Deliverables
• Final Survey Report
Responsibility
• ETC will design the survey and prepare the sampling plan, in coordination with WRT and City staff. Three to four iterations are expected before approval. ETC will also conduct a pilot test to ensure questions are well-understood. • ETC will administer the survey via mail and online methods to achieve a sample of 400 completed surveys. This sample size will provide results that have a margin of error of +/- 5% and a 95% level of confidence.
• ETC will analyze the results and will submit a final report to the City that includes an executive summary of the survey methodology and major findings; charts and graphs of the results of each question; a Priorities-Investment Rating (PIR) analysis that identifies high-priority facilities and programs; tabular data; and a copy of the survey instrument.
• City staff will provide guidance on survey questions

SUBJECT: CARRYOVER OF VARIOUS UNSPENT FISCAL YEAR 2023-24

BUDGET LINE ITEMS AS SUPPLEMENTAL APPROPRIATIONS
TO THE FISCAL YEAR 2024-25 BUDGET

RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council/EMID Board of Directors (City Council) approve the attached resolutions authorizing the carryover of various unspent Fiscal Year 2023- 24 budget line items as supplemental appropriations to the Fiscal Year 2024-25 City/EMID budget.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Due to various circumstances and conditions, City staff was unable to complete various FY 2023-24 tasks and projects, and/or such work plan items needed to be extended into FY 2024-25. This resulted in unspent FY 2023-24 budget appropriations associated with these work plan items that City staff is now requesting to be carried over to FY 2024-25 (as enumerated in Exhibit A) so that they may be completed in the current fiscal year.

BACKGROUND AND ANALYSIS
The City Council adopts an annual budget each fiscal year with each City Department receiving financial resources necessary to administer and execute their respective work plans. In FY 2023-24, staff was unable to start or complete various projects due to numerous factors including supply chain delays, ordering delays, project initiation

8.1 8.1 Staff Report
906
delays, project continuation and extensions, staff turnover, and staff vacancies. Since unspent operating budgets lapse at the end of each fiscal year, the Administrative Services Department, Community Development Department, City Clerk Department, Parks and Recreation Department, Police Department, and Public Works Department are requesting carryovers of their various unspent FY 2023-24 budget line items to FY 2024-25 so that their associated work plans may be completed this fiscal year. A summary of the carryovers is as follows with additional details provided in the Exhibit A attachment:

The City Manager recommends City Council’s approval of these budget carryover requests.
