SUBJECT: FIVE YEAR CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM – FY 2025- 2026 TO FY 2029-2030
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council/EMID Board of Directors review the proposed Five- Year Capital Improvement Program – FY 2025-2026 to FY 2029-2030, and authorize City/District staff to include the program in the FY 2025-2026 budget as presented, adjusted, and recommended.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
As part of the City/District’s Annual Budget process, City/District staff prepares a Five-Year Capital Improvement Program (CIP) consisting of projects to maintain and enhance the City/District’s infrastructure of roadways, sidewalks, utilities, structures, parks, and facilities for the benefit of the community. Because the costs of such improvements are usually significant, the plan anticipates future costs and sets forth a financial strategy to fund each project over a five-year period.
The proposed five-year Capital Improvement Plan for the period starting FY 2025-2026 is comprised of forty-six (46) projects that require future funding, including additional funding for eleven (11) previously authorized projects and thirty-five (35) new projects over the five- year term. There are descriptions of each project in Attachment 1 that include proposed
4.1 4.1 Staff Report
5 funding sources. Also included in Attachment 1 are status updates for on-going projects that are not recommended for additional funding. A snapshot of all 63 current and five-year proposed projects can be found on Table D, in Attachment 1.
BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS
The proposed FY 2025-2026 to FY 2029-2030 CIP plan consists of forty-six (46) projects to be funded over the next five years from various funding sources. The plan is organized into the following categories: Building, Parks, Stormwater/Lagoon, Streets/Traffic, Water, and Wastewater.
The plan consists of thirty-five (35) new projects and eleven (11) existing projects that require additional funding. Status updates for multi-year projects that do not require additional funding are also included in the CIP document (Attachment 1).
While the Capital Improvement Plan forecasts projects for a five-year period, the City Council approves appropriation of funding on an annual basis only. Table 1 provides a summary of the FY 2025-2026 projects that are recommended for appropriation and their identified funding sources.

STRATEGY FOR THE FUTURE
This Capital Improvement Plan is both fiscally and operationally ambitious. Completing and closing existing projects, especially those in the construction phase, is a top priority for the Public Works Department. This Council item addresses Council appropriations for FY 2025- 2026 and the plan for funding projects for the additional four years after that. Within this framework, staff balances projects based upon project priority and staffing workload, and includes the Executive Leadership Team in discussions of priority shifts throughout the year.
The Executive Leadership Team has reviewed and is supportive of the preliminary CIP work plan for FY 2025-2026.
While the Engineering Division does rely on consulting services for technical assistance, City staff is key to executing, completing and closing out capital improvement projects. The City Council has been proactive in authorizing staffing levels to meet this goal, and the Public Works Department has worked hard to maintain staffing levels in the current challenging economy. The Engineering Division is currently fully staffed with an Engineering Manager, three Senior Engineers and three Assistant/Associate Engineers, and the Department is recommending that the City Council authorize an additional engineer starting in FY 2025-2026, specifically to focus on Water and Wastewater projects. The Human Resources and Public Works teams continue to work to recruit for and fill key vacancies that are, and will continue to be, essential to the Capital Project process.

(CIP 405-704, Budget $1,250,000) Large Water Meter Replacements (2021-2022) The project consists of the removal and replacement of various large water meters throughout the District.
A survey that was conducted in 2022 identified several large water meters that are due for replacement.
These meters are currently under-registering and do not account for the full cost of water usage. Due to their size and lay length differences, many will require new meter boxes and reconfiguration of piping to and from the new meters, and therefore their replacement cannot be performed in house by staff.
The Water Maintenance Division has replaced smaller meters (4-inches and under) over the past couple of years and will continue its efforts to replace those meters that can be done in house.
Staff has analyzed and prioritized a list of water meters based on factors such as remaining useful life, the greatest calculated lost revenue, and performance. It is anticipated that following replacement of these inaccurate meters, EMID could recover the cost of replacing most of the meters within a few years.
During FY 2024-2025, staff completed a physical inspection and inventory of all 34 meter locations. Staff is currently preparing construction documents in-house. Construction is anticipated in Fall 2025.

(CIP 301-715, Budget $1,150,000) Substructure and Superstructure Bridge Improvements (2023-2024)
This project addresses deficiencies in Bicentennial, Foster City Boulevard, Rainbow, and Shell Boulevard Bridges. Caltrans performs inspections of the above water bridge elements every two years and the underwater elements every five years and reports its findings to the City. The project will address deficiencies identified in the Caltrans inspection documents and any deficiencies identified by an engineering firm working directly for the City. As no addressable deficiencies have been identified in Caltrans underwater inspections, the project budget does not include funds to repair underwater bridge elements. Additional funding may be requested for the design and construction of underwater bridge improvements, if any are identified.
The design for this project will be conducted in two phases. The initial phase entails conducting a thorough examination of previous Caltrans bridge inspection reports alongside current on-site inspections.
This process will result in the development of a Basis of Design report delineating the elements requiring improvements. The second phase will consist of the development of construction documents, including bid and construction support services. The design of the project was temporarily put on hold in FY 2024-2025 while other priority projects are addressed and will be scheduled after other priority project have been completed.

(CIP 301-720, Budget $200,000) City Hall Exterior Rehabilitation (2024-2025) Due to drought restrictions, the water features located at the front of City Hall have been inactive for several years. This project involves design and construction of City Hall exterior improvements, including removal of the water feature closest to the council chambers. In its place, a shade structure with seating elements will be installed. Simultaneously, the fountain near the clock tower will be repurposed, transforming into a large planting bed equipped with drip irrigation. The landscaping along Hillsdale Blvd will undergo a refresh, replacing existing ground covers and converting to point source irrigation. This project will adopt a hybrid procurement approach, involving a combination of both City and contracted staff.

(CIP 405-723, Budget $250,000) Water Main Condition Assessment (2024-2025) This project is identified in the Water Distribution System Master Plan (Master Plan). This project’s purpose is to identify any existing leaks and existing vulnerabilities along the main and make recommendations for repair and rehabilitation. Various non-destructive technologies will be employed to assess and inspect the main. Collectively, the data gathered from the inspections will help to identify locations along the pipeline alignment where there are leaks, coating and/or lining damage, or where the pipe wall is thinning. The findings from this assessment will help the District prioritize future improvements. A Technical Memorandum will be prepared summarizing the findings and including recommendations for Capital Improvement Projects with engineer’s cost estimates. Staff will analyze the summary of recommendations for incorporation into the City’s CIP. The City Council awarded a contract to Kayuga Solutions, Inc. on March 3, 2025, to perform the condition assessment.

(CIP 301-724, Budget $600,000) Park Pathway Restoration (2024-2025) This project will address restoration for park pathways across City Parks at locations identified by Parks Staff. Improvements will include removing and replacing failed and root-damaged asphalt, slurry seal, digouts, concrete entrance replacements, concrete curb adjustments, and if needed, line striping.
4.1 Attachment 1 - Proposed Capital Improvement Program FY 2025-2026 to FY 2029-2030
19 This project scope was originally included in the annual Street Rehabilitation Projects of FY2024 and FY2025 (CIP301-716 and CIP301-722). However, based on industry feedback, park pathway restoration work is too dissimilar to street rehabilitation efforts and is a deterrent to bidders for street rehabilitation projects. Consequently, the park pathway restoration work was removed from the street rehabilitation projects to be completed as a separate project. On January 21, 2025, City Council adopted Resolution 2025-5 transferring $300,000 reserved for park pathway restoration work from both CIP301-716 and CIP301-722 to fund a new CIP, now numbered as CIP301-724, for park pathway restoration work.

20 PROJECTS COMPLETED BUT NOT YET CLOSED IN FY 2024-2025 (CIP 405-660, Budget $5,800,000) Water Tanks and Facilities Improvements (2016-2017) The water storage tanks provide water storage for emergencies, peak use periods, and firefighting. The project addressed improvements to the three steel water storage tanks and the water booster pump station. The scope of work consisted of (1) refurbishing the 3 steel tanks by repairing corroded steel areas, and applying spot coating to the interior and a full coating to exterior surfaces; (2) installing water mixing devices inside the 3 steel tanks to prolong water quality; (3) seismically retrofitting the existing drainpipes and installing new drainpipe at the side of the tanks; and (4) reinforcing the door frame to the water booster pump station and installing flexible connections on the underground utilities entering the building. Construction was completed in Spring of 2025. (CIP 301-690, Budget $550,000) Seismic Improvements at Lagoon Pump Station (2019-2020) The Lagoon Pump Station houses two (2) engines and pumps used to pump water from the lagoon to the bay and controls the water level in the lagoon. G&E Engineering Systems, Inc., completed a seismic vulnerability assessment of the building that concluded that the building meets the seismic code and recommended various improvements including (1) reinforcing the door frame of the roll-up door, (2) isolating the tidal channel walls from the north walkway of the building, (3) installing flexible connections on the underground utilities entering the building and fuel lines from the walls to the engines, and (4) securing equipment and shelving within the building. In addition, staff identified significant areas of spalling concrete and rusting reinforcing steel (rebar) along the concrete walkway connected to the building. Construction for recommendations 2-4 were completed in 2024 and early 2025. A separate CIP (CIP 301-718) has been created to address the rehabilitation of the lagoon pump station building in its entirety including addressing the reinforcement of the door frame (item 1) and replacement of the concrete walkway.
(CIP 301-699, Budget $200,000) Corporation Yard Workshops Exterior Paint (2020-2021) The Corporation Yard Shops were last painted in 2007. Repairs to the building exteriors, such as replacing dry-rotted wall sheathing was completed as part of CIP 301-693 Roof Replacements Project.
Building Maintenance has now completed all remaining repairs and painting and project close-out is anticipated in early FY 2025-2026.
Projects Closed Out in FY 2024-2025
(CIP 301-637, Budget $2,690,000) Road Widening - Foster City Boulevard and Chess Drive – Multi- Project #4, #7, and #8 (2013-2014)
The project was intended to address improvements at the intersection of Foster City Boulevard and Chess Drive. The improvements included adding a northbound right-turn lane on Foster City Boulevard at Chess Drive; lengthening the westbound left turn lane on Chess Drive at Foster City Boulevard; and adding a westbound lane on Chess Drive east of Foster City Boulevard.
These Improvements were funded by the Chess Hatch development based on the traffic impacts of the future building. The Chess Hatch Development Agreement (DA) expired at the end of 2023. As a result, the building will not be constructed and the associated traffic improvements required to mitigate its impacts are no longer necessary. The funds for the traffic improvements were returned to the developer and the project was closed out. Should another development be proposed at the same location, traffic impacts will be studied and fees collected to fund the improvements required to mitigate it’s impacts.

21 (CIP 455-696, Budget $900,000) Sanitary Sewer System Improvements (2020-2021) The scope of the project includes the replacement relocation, and new installation of sanitary sewer pipelines and manholes at three (3) locations on Argus, Regulus, and Polaris Avenue. The work was bid as options in the completed CIP 455-611 Sanitary Sewer System Improvements Project; however, the options were not exercised due to budgetary constraints. On January 4, 2021, the EMID Board of Directors adopted Resolution No. 3553 authorizing an agreement with HydroScience Engineers, Inc. to prepare construction contract documents and provide construction support services for these 3 locations.
The construction contract documents are 90 percent complete.
Improvements made as a part of CIP 611 (which replaced upstream pipelines) appear to have effectively resolved the previously existing issues that were affecting the downstream lift station. It was determined that maintenance will monitor the lift station, and funds that would have been spent on construction be applied to higher priority wastewater projects. The location continues to be monitored by Wastewater maintenance staff and the project has been moved into the 15-year CIP. A small design contract would be required the year that this work is to be performed to finalize the drawings and make any modifications. (CIP 301-702, Budget $300,000) Park Pathway Restoration (2021-2022) This project addressed improvements to pathways in the following city parks: Arcturus, Turnstone, Shad, Erckenbrack, and Constitution Walkway. Improvements included removing and replacing failed and root- damaged asphalt and installing root barrier, slurry seal, and, if needed, line striping. Construction has been completed and the Notice of Completion was accepted by the City Council on July 15, 2024. (CIP 301-703, Budget $3,200,000) Street Rehabilitation (2021-2022) This project consisted of the repair/resurfacing of the following public streets: Polaris Avenue, Argus Court, Arcturus Court, Pollux Court, portions of Shell Boulevard, Comet Drive, Balclutha Drive, Polynesia Avenue, Constitution Drive, Chrysopolis Drive, Lurline Drive, Niantic Drive, and Pilgrim Drive. Repair methods included crack seal, slurry seal, dig-out repairs, and surface overlays. The project also included curb and gutter replacement and sidewalk repairs on the streets that are being repaired. Sharrow symbols/legends were incorporated as appropriate. Construction of the Park Pathway Restoration Project (CIP 301-702) was performed in conjunction with this project to take advantage of economies of scale and allow more efficient project delivery. Construction has been completed and Notice of Completion was accepted by the City Council on July 15, 2024.
(CIP 301-712, Budget $1,250,000) Edgewater Park Softball and Soccer Synthetic Turf Resurfacing (2023-2024)
The project addressed the full replacement of the turf surface of the Edgewater Park softball/soccer field.
A construction contract was awarded to Shaw Integrated and Turf Solutions on May 20, 2024, Construction began in July 2024 and was substantially completed by September 2024, with final Completion in November 2024. The remaining item on this project consists of a final field walk with the design consultant in July 2025 to confirm the field is meeting intended performance characteristics nine months after installation.

22 THE CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROJECT BUDGETING PROCESS
As part of the City’s Annual Budget and Five Year Financial Plan process, the City prepares a Five Year Capital Improvement Project Program. A Capital Improvement Program consisting of several Capital Improvement Projects (CIP) is a plan for capital expenditures to provide for the acquisition, expansion or rehabilitation of an element of the City's physical plant to be incurred over a fixed period of several future years. Examples of such projects include:
• Street pavement projects
• City facilities construction / refurbishment
• Park infrastructure improvements (e.g., paving sport courts, constructing or maintaining walkways, or rehabilitation of park facilities)
• Water valve or pipe replacement
• Sewer Lift Station refurbishment
Because the costs of such improvements are usually significant, the Five-Year Capital Improvement Project Program is a useful tool for anticipating and planning for future costs and developing funding strategies for projects.
CIP Planning Process
Identifying CIP Projects
Throughout the fiscal year, City staff members monitor the functional status and performance of the City’s infrastructure elements. Maintenance activities are documented and analyzed to determine if rehabilitation or replacement is necessary. In addition, the City Council may provide policy direction to construct, enhance or rehabilitate City facilities. Based on these inputs, Staff begins to define the scope, nature and extent of projects. Projects on the previous year’s Five-Year CIP Plan are reviewed and updated and new recommended projects are defined.
Cost Estimates
Upon identifying the scope and nature of each project, staff prepares cost estimates of the projects.
Projects which come up within the next 1-2 years have detailed engineers’ cost estimates prepared.
Projects which are 3-5 years out have less detailed cost estimates, but are sufficient in detail to give an overall order-of-magnitude cost estimate for planning purposes.
The cost estimates include an inflationary factor in a range of 2% to 10% per year for projects that are in years 2-5 based upon the historical trends and future expectations of raw materials and labor costs for projects. Cost estimates also include contingency factors that can range from 10% to 25% based upon the historical experience of similar projects and the relative uncertainty with respect to the project itself.
For example, a construction project built upon ground that is suspected to have hazardous materials may yield a higher contingency factor than a relatively simple replacement of walkways.
Funding Sources
Once the costs and timing have been identified and projected, a financial analysis is prepared to determine whether the projects can be funded. Consideration is given to a variety of sources of funds including:
• Grant funds
• Revenues dedicated for such purposes (e.g., Measure A funds for street improvements) • Park In-lieu fees
• Water and Wastewater rate revenue
• Interest earnings
• Existing undesignated funds
4.1 Attachment 1 - Proposed Capital Improvement Program FY 2025-2026 to FY 2029-2030
23 Development of Five-Year Plan
The recommended timing of projects in the plan takes into consideration many factors including:
• Status of the existing infrastructure
• Risk management considerations
• City Council policy priorities
• Staffing/staff workload
• Bidding environment
• Available funding
The City Council considers the draft plan at a Study Session that is typically held in late March. The City Council provides direction on each of the projects and any changes are incorporated into a revised plan that is reviewed by the Planning Commission for consistency with the General Plan. Any updates requiring further discussion are provided once again to the City Council at a Budget Study Session, typically held in May.
The City Council then holds a Public Hearing on the budget as a whole, which includes the Five-Year CIP Plan, normally in June. Subject to any public testimony and final Council direction, the final Five-Year CIP Plan is prepared, and the project costs associated with any projects which are funded in the next fiscal year are appropriated by the City Council as part of the adoption of the Annual Budget.

LIBRARY EXTERIOR IMPROVEMENTS AND RE-LANDSCAPING (FY 2017-2018) Project Category: C
Project Description:
Staff has cured prior water intrusion issues by removing soil away from the northwest wall of the building and re-landscaping the northwest area in house into an attractive drought tolerant and water efficient habitat garden to attract pollinators such as butterflies and hummingbirds. Funding from this project was further utilized in FY 2024-2025 to improve the curb ramps at the front of the Library/Community Center building to current Americans with Disability Act (ADA) standards.
This project will complete the Library building exterior improvements on the southwest side of the building.
This project will provide for permanently removing the earth around the southwest wall of the library building, sealing the wall, installing wall drains and drainpipes, and re-grading the earth around the exterior of the building.
The roots of the trees adjacent to the north wall of the library could contribute to water intrusion as well as eventual long-term damage to the building structure and nearby utilities. This CIP would provide funding to investigate the extent of root intrusion and propose options to root prune and/or remove the trees.
The soil removal and landscaping will be performed in-house by staff. A consultant will develop project plans and specifications to seal the wall and install appropriate drainage from the building and incorporate the landscape improvements.

INSTALL ELECTRIC VEHICLE CHARGING STATIONS (FY 2025-2026) Project Category: B
Project Description:
The California Air Resources Board has passed its Advanced Clean Fleets regulations which mandate that cities electrify medium- and heavy-duty vehicles. The first step in adopting any significant electrification of the fleet is to invest in the infrastructure necessary to power an electric fleet.
In November 2023, the City Council approved an agreement with Peninsula Clean Energy to participate in its Public EV Fleets Program “GovEV”. The GovEV program provides free technical assistance, project planning, and grant funding to public agencies for new municipal EVs and fleet charging infrastructure. As part of the PCE GovEV program, the City agreed to install municipal EV chargers. This project will implement charging stations and related infrastructure (like generators and/or additional electrical service) identified through the process.
Public Works staff has been actively working with Peninsula Clean Energy and its consultant to plan the City’s infrastructure needs, starting at the Corporation Yard, followed by other City facilities.

CORPORATION YARD FENCE REPLACEMENT/REHABILITATION (FY 2027-2028) Project Category: B
Project Description:
This project will rehabilitate the existing Corporation Yard fence which has been damaged by saltwater corrosion carried out by high winds. The fence was constructed in 1991 and extends approximately 1,500 feet along the perimeter of the City/District Corporation Yard on East Third Avenue and a portion along the west edge of Tank No. 4. It is an eight (8) foot high “woodcrete” structure (precast concrete fence that mimics the look of wood) that rests on a woodcrete retaining wall and foundation with built in drainage of varying depth. The fence serves as a protective barrier, ensuring the security of Parks, Public Works, and Fire Department equipment and vehicles and prevents unauthorized access from non-City personnel.
Over the years corrosion has damaged the rebar within the fence which has compromised its structural integrity and made it vulnerable to weather events and forced entries. Staff has performed ongoing maintenance and repairs to address issues and multiple failures to the fence.
The project will assess the condition of the existing fence and provide either a new fence or replacement of deteriorated panels. Portions of the landscaping on the north side of the fence may need to be removed and replaced to allow access for construction.

REPLACE COUNCIL CHAMBERS HVAC (FY 2028-2029)
Project Category: B
Project Description:
Due to the age and capacity of the Heating/Ventilation/Air Conditioning (HVAC) at the City Council Chambers which was constructed in 2002, the existing system needs to be replaced and upgraded. The HVAC system is over 20 years old and near the end of its useful life. Additionally, the maximum operation of the HVAC system is not sufficient to meet the needs of users when the Council Chambers are at full capacity. In particular, the cooling capacity of the system cannot accommodate a fully occupied Council Chambers, resulting in an overheated environment.
The project includes replacing and upgrading four (4) air conditioning condensers and verifying the condition of and replacing damaged or aged system parts such as boots and pans. A qualified professional will be engaged to perform an inspection of the facilities to establish the final scope of work prior to the preparation construction documents for bidding.

RECREATION CENTER REBUILD (FY 2017-2018)
Project Category: A
Project Description:
On January 23, 2019, the City Council by Minute Order No. 1585 accepted the Final Recreation Center Master Plan Conceptual Design Report. On January 31, 2022, the City Council received an update that included the results of a Community Survey to validate the Community Input that had been received in the extensive community engagement that was completed, pre-pandemic, in 2017. The City Council adopted Minute Order 1832, directing staff to 1) Accept the Recreation Center and Parks System Survey results, confirming staff has satisfied the City Council’s interest in validating programming and usage assumptions; 2) Proceed with a “build-to-budget” option for the Recreation Center in an amount not-to- exceed $55 million; and 3) Proceed with utilizing $36 million from the Capital Asset Acquisition and Replacement Fund and $19 million from the General Fund Reserves for the total not-to-exceed budget of $55 million for rebuilding the Recreation Center.
At the City Council regular meeting on November 21, 2022, the City Council awarded an agreement with Group 4 Architecture, Research + Planning, Inc. (“Group 4”) for professional design, bidding, and construction support services. The design phase began in January 2023 with the award of a construction management contract to Griffin Structures. The construction management firm’s early involvement to assist with constructability review of the design plans helps to provide a seamless design to construction process.
At the regular City Council meeting on September 18, 2023, staff and Group 4 presented to City Council a full schematic design which included an estimate of probable construction costs and a list of bid alternatives with cost information for City Council’s consideration. The City Council accepted the schematic design budget estimate of $63,356,000 for the Project and provided direction on additional project enhancements to be included resulting in an increase to construction estimate by $2,172,000.
In addition, the City Council approved the temporary facilities and transition plan for the Project at the regular City Council meeting on November 6, 2023, resulting in an increase to the overall Project costs.
With the added Project enhancements, contingency and escalation factors, the total Project cost estimate at that time was $65,934,000.
At the regular City Council meeting on January 16, 2024, the City Council provided direction on various strategies to address closing the funding gap for the project. These strategies include a mix of revenue opportunities such as grants and development impact fees, as well as elimination and re-prioritization of other capital projects to free up funds to address the funding gap. The Project budget shortfall at the time between the approved budget of $55,374,250 and the design team’s cost estimate of $65,934,000 was $10,559,750. To address the shortfall, the City Council by Minute Order No. 1956 directed several actions including:
a. Eliminating the Bocce Court Expansion from the Project scope and budget reducing the budget by $1,009,000 while still maintaining the design as a bid alternative if the bids come in lower than anticipated;
b. Authorizing the release of $5,000,000 from the remaining Levee project funds and appropriate it to the Project;
c. Appropriating grant funds from Gilead Foundation in the amount of $500,000 toward the Project; d. Appropriating anticipated park impact fees from the new Gilead building at 331 Lakeside Drive in the amount of $594,000 to the Project: and
e. Eliminating or delaying some park CIP projects through reprioritization.
On June 3, 2024, the City Council approved the plans and specifications and authorized the issuance of call for bids for the Project. At this time there was an approved budget of $55,432,578 which included an
4.1 Attachment 1 - Proposed Capital Improvement Program FY 2025-2026 to FY 2029-2030
41 additional $58,323 to the total approved budget for plan check services with West Coast Code Consultants (WC3) (City Council Resolution No. 2024-21 on April 1, 2024).
The following is an overview of Project funding sources as reflected on June 17, 2024; the City Council adopted City Resolution No. 2024-66 approving the Fiscal Year 2024-2025 City Budget. This adoption added $9,092,750, increasing the overall project budget to $64,525,328.

TRAFFIC SIGNAL SYSTEM UPGRADES (FY 2020-2021)
Project Category: A
Project Description:
The City’s traffic signal system was evaluated as part of the Bicycle, Pedestrian, and Intersection Evaluation Study (CIP 301-664). This part of the study focused on inventory of the existing traffic signal infrastructure network and identified opportunities to improve efficiency through either equipment or operations enhancements. This project is built upon recommendations from CIP 301-664 and will include the following tasks for design and construction.
1. Citywide Communications Upgrade
The City's existing traffic signal communications network is in need of an upgrade to help modernize its infrastructure. The current system operates over twisted-copper pair cables using 9,600-baud modems.
The communications upgrade will bring the City's network to current standards, which will allow more flexibility with traffic operations enhancements such as improving traffic flow along the East Hillsdale Boulevard, Foster City Boulevard, and Edgewater Boulevard corridors. Upgrade options may include wireless improvements, ethernet over copper upgrade with some cellular improvements, an upgrade to fiber optics to maximize broadband capabilities, or a hybrid approach.
2. Traffic Signal Field Hardware Upgrade
• Vehicle and Pedestrian Signal Heads Replacement
• Accessible Pedestrian Signals (APS) Replacement
• Traffic Signal Cabinets Upgrades or replacements and retrofits onto existing cabinet foundations • Battery Back-up System Upgrades
3. Traffic Signal Controllers Replacement
The traffic signal controller is considered the "brain" of the signalized intersection and processes detection inputs from the field and sends out signals to turn on and off the traffic signal indications. These field units communicate with the Central Computer System located in the Public Works Engineering office. The City uses a modern controller from Trafficware but the field hardware has reached the end of its useful life.
4. Advanced Traffic Management System (ATMS) - Central Computer System Upgrade This component communicates to the traffic signal controllers and stores data for traffic signal timing development. A new system will provide an enhanced user interface.
Funding for the design and construction of the traffic signal system upgrades in this project will be provided by a combination of City CIP, Transportation Impact Fees, and state funds. Total funding in excess of $9 million may be required to implement and fully fund the design and construction of the traffic signal system upgrades.
Construction of the project is recommended to be scheduled on or after FY 2025-2026 to allow for cash reserves from non-General Fund funding sources to accumulate.
The City needs to consider how best to upgrade its network and potentially introduce enhancement of additional City services. Due to the complexity of the project, a technical memorandum will be prepared by a professional traffic engineering consultant that will compare the various upgrade alternatives and associated costs, provide recommendations for the preferred system based on the City’s current and future needs, recommend a phasing plan for design and construction of the improvements, and prepare a schedule for implementation.

STREET REHABILITATION (FY 2025-2026)
Project Category: A
Project Description:
Ongoing maintenance of the public streets is essential. This project is intended to repair/resurface public streets. To implement this ongoing program in the most cost-effective manner, a Pavement Management Program (PMP) is used. The Metropolitan Transportation Commission’s Pavement Management Technical Assistance Program (P-TAP) provides the City with various resources to better understand its pavement condition including the PMP. Through the P-TAP, pavement consultants are hired to inspect City streets and update the PMP database every two to three years. The streets selected for the next CIP project are determined primarily through the PMP program analysis. The program also helps determine the most cost-effective treatment to extend the life of the roadway. The normal repair methods include crack seal, slurry seal, dig-out repairs, and surface overlays.
The project also includes curb and gutter replacement and sidewalk repairs on the streets that are being repaired. Sharrow symbols/legends will be incorporated in this project as appropriate and as called out in the City’s Bicycle and Pedestrian Master Plan, that will begin development this spring. All improvements will be designed per the latest City and National Standards. This includes accessibility upgrades complying with the City’s ADA Transition plan and all pavement work adhering to the requirements of the MRP3.0 (Municipal Regional Stormwater Permit) of the City’s NPDES (National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System) Permit that took effect on July 1, 2023.
As part of P-TAP, the City also receives a budgetary need analysis report based the most recent pavement inspections, treatment costs, and various budget scenarios. Based on the 2024 report, the ideal pavement strategy is to increase the network average Pavement Condition Index (PCI) from 78 to 83 and maintain it over a five-year period.
Federal and state transportation grant funding is used when available. Future multi-year funding is proposed to assure availability of local matching funds to maximize grant eligibilities. Funding for the local share of the project will be provided by Measure A, Measure M, Gas Tax, SB 1 and/or Measure W sources.

FIRE AND RESCUE BOAT RAMP REHABILITATION (FY 2026-2027) Project Category: B
Project Description:
The existing fire and rescue boat ramp provides access to the San Francisco Bay from the northeast tip of Mariner’s Point/north of Baywinds Park. The fire and rescue boat ramp is primarily used as a launching point for water rescue operations.
The purpose of the project is to remove and replace the existing ramp at the northern tip of Mariner’s Point in order to improve accessibility for fire and rescue. The improvements will include temporary shoring, dewatering, demolition of the existing ramp, excavation and backfilling, and construction of various ramp improvements.
The boat ramp rehabilitation was originally included in the City’s Levee Improvement Project (designated as Access Point #1), but it was a scope item that had been added to the plans later in the design phase and was causing complications with the overall build per plan. It was determined that the re-design and construction could potentially delay the delivery of the project as well as the re-opening of the Phase 3 portion of the Levee. As a result, this portion of the scope of work was removed from the levee project.

BICYCLE AND PEDESTRIAN IMPROVEMENTS (FY 2026-2027)
Project Category: C
Project Description:
In January 2018, Fehr & Peers performed a Bicycle, Pedestrian, and Intersection Evaluation Study (CIP 301-664) to help the City evaluate and determine the current traffic and transportation facilities and potential for improvements. As part of the study, Fehr & Peers performed an assessment for the four public schools that existed in Foster City at the time, to identify improvements to provide more comfortable bicycle and walking routes to school. The report describes citywide travel behavior trends for school trips and then provides a site assessment for each of the schools, including cost estimates for suggested enhancements. Some of the report recommendations have already been implemented. In FY2025/2026, Fehr and Peers will complete the Foster City Bicycle and Pedestrian Master Plan, which will incorporate and build upon previous studies. The master plan will outline additional improvements, as well as specific priority projects around the City.
The Bicycle and Pedestrian Improvements Project analyzes the remaining enhancements identified for each of the four Foster City public schools to meet the City’s goals for pedestrian safety and incorporates those enhancements with the proposed projects from the Foster City Bicycle and Pedestrian Master Plan.
Beach Park School, which was constructed after the Fehr & Peers study, would be included in the new assessment. Some suggested enhancements include physical changes to the roadway, curb/gutter, or sidewalk, striping, and signage modifications. A consultant would review and analyze the assessment and master plan, perform field inspections, and perform additional traffic studies to develop project plans and specifications to implement the enhancements and the potential to implement complementary improvements such as green infrastructure (e.g., stormwater treatment within curb extensions).
Based upon the proposed project schedule, an RFP for assessment and design will be issued in 2026.
Construction is anticipated in 2027.

Through the P-TAP, pavement consultants are hired to inspect City streets and update the PMP database every two to three years. The streets selected for the next CIP project are determined primarily through the PMP program analysis. The program also helps determine the most cost-effective treatment to extend the life of the roadway. The normal repair methods include crack seal, slurry seal, dig-out repairs, and surface overlays.
The project also includes curb and gutter replacement and sidewalk repairs on the streets that are being repaired. Sharrow symbols/legends will be incorporated in this project as appropriate and as called out in the City’s Bicycle and Pedestrian Master Plan. All improvements will be designed per the latest City and National Standards. This includes accessibility upgrades complying with the City’s ADA Transition plan and all pavement work adhering to the requirements of the MRP3.0 (Municipal Regional Stormwater Permit) of the City’s NPDES (National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System) Permit that took effect on July 1, 2023.
As part of P-TAP, the City also receives a budgetary need analysis report based the most recent pavement inspections, treatment costs, and various budget scenarios. Based on the 2024 report, the ideal pavement strategy is to increase the network average Pavement Condition Index (PCI) from 78 to 83 and maintain it over a five-year period.
Federal and state transportation grant funding is used when available. Future multi-year funding is proposed to assure availability of local matching funds to maximize grant eligibilities. Funding for the local share of the project will be provided by Measure A, Measure M, Gas Tax, SB 1 and/or Measure W sources.

LAGOON PUMP STATION REHABILITATION AND CAPACITY ENHANCEMENT (NEW NAME) (FY 2023-2024)
Project Category: A
Project Description:
This project carries a new name and is a combination of two previous CIPs, CIP 301-717 Add Third & Fourth Lagoon Pump & CIP 301-718 Lagoon Pump Station Building Rehabilitation. Due to long lead times for equipment, primarily pumps and engines, the project will be executed in phases. This approach will ensure that the combined scope is delivered in a feasible and timely manner.
The project includes necessary seismic and structural improvements and rehabilitation to the Lagoon Pump House building. This includes seismic strengthening of the building walls; replacement of the lagoon walkway and the rehabilitation of the bayside walkway; replacement of the lagoon trash racks, discharge slide gates and motors, and discharge flap gates; along with various concrete repairs. It will also involve the removal of the remnants of two lagoon pump engines, impellers, shafts, and associated plumbing that were abandoned in place when the current pumps were installed in 2001. These steps will enable the installation of a third and possibly fourth functioning lagoon pumps in these newly vacant pump bays. Additionally, the project will investigate options for de-silting the existing culvert that runs underneath E. 3rd Avenue in the aft bay of the lagoon pumps to ensure maximum discharge flow from the Pump Station.
The Lagoon Pump Station, located at the City/District’s Corporation Yard, houses two engines/pumps that pump lagoon water into the Bay to control the water level of the interior lagoon. Constructed in the early 1960s, it is one of the oldest City-owned buildings. Water flows through the culverts under the lagoon pump station building and is then pumped into the Bay. Severe concrete spalling has been noted in some locations on the building, leading to weakened load-bearing capacities and increased vulnerability to seismic activity. These issues compromise the structural integrity of critical elements, potentially reducing the building’s safety and lifespan. Furthermore, numerous structural code changes have been adopted since the building's design, necessitating upgrades to bring this critical building up to code and increase its seismic resilience. This project will include a seismic analysis of the building and recommendations for structural improvements to meet current standards and ensure the facility remains resilient during a seismic event.
In addition to the structural issues at the Lagoon Pump House, there are pumping capacity and redundancy concerns. Studies have shown that from 1974 to 2019 severe storms have become more frequent and grown in intensity due to climate change effects . During significant storm events, both lagoon pumps have occasionally been in operation while the lagoon level continued to rise. This problem is expected to worsen with sea level rise and the increased severity of atmospheric rivers predicted due to climate change. This project will add a third and possibly fourth pump to the station, providing redundancy to reduce flooding risks in the event of a failure of either of the two existing pumps during severe storms and high tide conditions. The project will retrofit all four bays’ trash racks: two currently lack racks, and the other two have a known deficiency of a three-foot opening between the bottom of the trash rack and the base of the intake structure. Additionally, the existing flap gates, slide gates, and tide gates in the two old bays are beyond their service life and require replacement.
The two existing lagoon pumps were replaced in 2001 and are 20 years old. Although the useful life is approximately 35 years, if one were to fail, it could take several weeks to repair. In recent years, there have been incidents in which debris such as tires, etc. have caused a pump to fail. If this were to occur during a storm event, it could have devastating impacts. Adding a third and fourth pump would allow for uninterrupted operation, redundancy, staggered replacement of the lagoon pumps, and provide maximum protection against the potential for flooding and property damage. More information and cost estimate updates are expected once preliminary engineering is finished.
In FY 2024-2025, the City received a $1.38M grant from FEMA for this project. Acceptance of these funds place the project under the requirements of the Code of Federal Regulations which require submittals to

LAGOON INTAKE STRUCTURE REHABILITATION (FY 2024-2025)
Project Category: A
Project Description:
The City’s lagoon system intakes water via three pipes and a system of gates on the southern end of the City near Wheel House Lane. The interior structure, built in the late 1960s, has some deficiencies that are in need of repair and require further investigation to better understand the extent of necessary repairs.
The overall structure consists of an intake structure with three, 42-inch slide gates, three 42-inch reinforced concrete pipes that run from the bay to the lagoon under Sea Cloud Park, and an outfall structure with three 42-inch flap gates. The flap gates have exceeded their useful life and are in need of replacement to ensure they work as designed. Concrete spalling has been noted on the outfall structure which needs to be investigated to see the extent of repairs needed.
Permits for this work are likely needed from both the Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB) and the United States Army Corps of Engineers. (USACE). While these permits are not expected to place onerous restrictions on the project, they will take around 6 months to obtain and will restrict the working window for the project and will impact project delivery time.
An investigative study is needed to fully scope the project and lay out any environmental and permit clearance. This will be followed by an engineering design and then construction of the rehabilitation.

WATER MAIN CONDITION ASSESSMENT (FY 2024-2025)
Project Category: A
Project Description:
This project is identified in the Water Distribution System Master Plan (Master Plan). The 24-inch cement mortar lined and coated steel transmission main is the District’s sole source of water from SFPUC and was constructed in 1962. A condition assessment of the transmission main was performed in 2005. At the time, the District’s transmission main was determined to be in very good condition. The Master Plan recommended that the District’s transmission main undergo a new assessment every 20 years.
In FY2024-25, staff hired a consultant to evaluate the current condition of the transmission main. This project’s purpose is to identify any existing leaks and existing vulnerabilities along the main and make recommendations for repair and rehabilitation. Various non-destructive technologies will be employed to assess and inspect the main. Collectively, the data gathered from the inspections will help to identify locations along the pipeline alignment where there are leaks, coating and/or lining damage, or where the pipe wall is thinning. The findings from this assessment will help the District prioritize future improvements. A Technical Memorandum will be prepared summarizing the findings and including recommendations for Capital Improvement Projects with Engineer’s cost estimates. Staff will analyze the summary of recommendations for incorporation into the City’s CIP.

PERMANENT EMERGENCY BYPASS TRANSMISSION MAIN ON E. THIRD AVE. (FY 2025-2026) Project Category: A
Project Description:
This project will improve water supply reliability and redundancy and minimize water service interruptions in a catastrophic seismic event. The District’s 24-inch water transmission main pipeline is the sole source of potable water for the City and is attached to the Seal Slough Bridge. Seal Slough Bridge was built in the 1930’s and is used as a pedway only. The bridge is aging and could fail in the event of a seismic event and with it, the District would lose its primary water supply.
As part of CIP 636 Water System Improvements and Valve Replacements Project, two 12-inch emergency water bypass connections, with isolation valves and fittings, were constructed on the transmission main beyond the ends of the bridge to provide a means of restoring water service quickly in the event of the bridge and pipeline failure. As part of the project 1,250 feet of 12-inch temporary bypass piping was purchased and is being stored at the District’s Corporation Yard. This pipe can be assembled by staff quickly (within 1-2 days) in an emergency to restore flow until the transmission main can be repaired.
This project provides for the construction of a permanent bypass pipe to be attached to the adjacent bridge on East Third Avenue and joined at the second bypass connection that was constructed as part of CIP 636. Acquisition of environmental permits for construction over the slough and coordination with the City of San Mateo will be required. The permanent bypass pipe would provide a redundant water supply immediately and increase speed of response during an emergency.

WATER TANK LINING AND STRUCTURAL RETROFIT (FY 2026-2027) Project Category: A
Project Description:
This project consists of full interior lining (coating) and structural retrofit of the roof rafters and center columns of the District’s three 4 million gallon steel water storage tanks. The tanks are located at the District’s Corporation Yard. Steel water tanks must be coated on a regular basis, roughly every 20 years, to ensure they do not corrode, which could lead to structural deterioration or leaks that may render the tanks unusable.
A 2020 condition assessment was conducted on the three tanks by two consultants: Villalobos & Associates and CSI. The assessment consisted of inspecting the tanks’ interior and exterior coating and cathodic protection systems. The consultants recommended replacing the coating systems in all three of the District’s tanks with order of importance being the exterior, then the interior of the tanks. Due to the prohibitive cost of fully recoating the interior and exterior of all tanks, the District split this work with the full exterior coating and portions of interior coating and spot repair being performed as part of CIP 405-660 Water Tanks & Facilitates Improvement Project. The full interior coating will be completed as a part of this project.
While working on the tanks during CIP 405-660, the extent of corrosion encountered on the roof rafters in the interior of the tanks ranged from moderate to severe, with some portions of the roof rafters requiring immediate replacement. The most severe corrosion observed on all three tanks, was located at the top of the center columns, near the center vents. The center column is the landing for all rafters, is a vital structural element, and likely the most corrosive environment in the tank. This project will retrofit the center column to be moved away from the roof vent and permanently relocate the rafters away from the vent as well.
The design and construction for this work will be completed in two phases. Design and construction of the first two tanks followed by the last tank, with the intent for construction to be staggered to ensure tanks are available for operations and to spread out costs.

LARGE WATER VALVE REPLACEMENT (FY 2026-2027)
Project Category: B
Project Description:
This project is part of the District’s ongoing program of maintaining and upgrading the water system through the installation of new valves, replacement of existing valves (8-inches and larger) and various improvements to the water system to improve reliability and minimize service impacts to customers.
Valves included on the replacement list are either leaking, no longer functioning properly, or have reached the end of their useful life. The valves are discovered primarily through testing during the water main / fire hydrant flushing program. Additional valves are added to the project by inspecting the system and identifying the need for additional isolation valves to provide more reliable service to customers.
This on-going program helps keep the water distribution system in good condition to allow the provision of reliable service to the community. The program may include strategic use of line-stop technologies to minimize water service interruptions to large blocks of customers during the construction period.

COATING ON 24-INCH TRANSMISSION MAIN AT SEAL SLOUGH BRIDGE (FY 2026-2027) Project Category: B
Project Description:
This project will address the application of exterior coating on the 24-inch transmission main attached to the Seal Slough Bridge. An inspection of the pipeline will be performed, followed by preparation of a technical memorandum recommending removal and coating alternatives, and regulatory permitting requirements, including cost estimates for the pipe preparation and coating application. Design and construction will follow.
The Foster City/EMID 24-inch water transmission main is attached to and runs along the length of the Seal Slough Bridge. This steel line is exposed to the elements of the bay. After years of exposure to sun and saltwater air along the bay shore, the original protective coating shows signs of age and corrosion and the pipeline requires recoating to prolong its life. This transmission line runs over the San Francisco Bay and will require procurement of regulatory permits for work over the waterway.

ASSESSMENT OF CATHODIC PROTECTION ANODE BEDS (FY 2027-2028) Project Category: A
Project Description:
There are a total of six (6) Impressed Current Cathodic Protection (ICCP) systems installed to protect the District’s steel transmission main and distribution mains from corrosion/rust. Additionally, there are three (3) ICCP systems installed to protect each of the District’s three 4-million-gallon steel water storage tanks.
Each ICCP is comprised of a rectifier (controllable DC power supply), anode beds(s) and connections from the rectifier negative output terminal to the pipeline or structure being protected.
Continuing maintenance of the cathodic protection system is required to ensure sufficient protection is maintained on the structures in order to prevent external corrosion while maintaining the water system infrastructure. District staff takes readings of the rectifiers on a monthly basis and annually tests the effectiveness of the existing cathodic protection system throughout the distribution system, replacing and adjusting the levels of the rectifiers as necessary. An assessment of the cathodic protection systems was performed in 2006 by Corrpro, and determined that there was approximately 20 years of useful life left in the existing anode beds studied.
This project will provide a condition survey of the anode beds associated with each impressed current cathodic protection system and make recommendations for replacement as needed. Based on the improvements required by the survey, a construction budget will be identified, and a funding request will be brought back to the City Council.

CHLORINE ANALYZERS AND AUTOFLUSHERS AT VARIOUS LOCATIONS (FY 2028-2029) Project Category: A
Project Description:
This project will address implementing long-term technology solutions for the water quality issues that Foster City experiences in winter months. This project provides for the design and construction of chlorine analyzers and automatic flushers throughout Foster City.
EMID purchases water treated with a disinfectant agent (chloramine) from the SFPUC. Chloramine disinfection is more environmentally friendly than other disinfectant options but presents operational challenges for distribution system operators. If chloramine is allowed to remain in the distribution system for a lengthy period, the disinfectant can degrade, reducing the chlorine residual, adversely affecting water quality.
Successful water conservation efforts over the past years have reduced water demand, and as a result, water is subject to “aging” in the distribution system. In the winter months, when irrigation use is down and water demands are low, staff has observed chlorine residuals falling to actionable levels, forcing staff to flush hydrants to stimulate water circulation to increase the disinfectant levels in the water system. In 2022, staff performed an experiment to determine if irrigating sports fields at the furthest reaches of the system would improve system-wide disinfection levels. In partnership with the Parks Department, irrigation of City parks in strategic areas of the water distribution system was increased. Initial results have shown that residuals have improved. More time is also needed to monitor and validate data following installation of mixers as part of (CIP 405-660) Water Tank Improvements project which will be complete by summer 2025.
This project will install automatic flushers and chlorine analyzers at various key locations throughout the City. Chlorine analyzers will measure the level of disinfectant (chlorine residual) in the water in areas where water aging has been observed. When set thresholds are reached, the analyzers will trigger the automatic flushers to flush water through the system until the chlorine residuals are back to a non- actionable level. The installation of chlorine analyzers and automatic flushers will save staff time required to flush water mainlines manually, also saving City funds in labor costs.

EMERGENCY GENERATOR REPLACEMENTS (FY 2021-2022)
Project Category: A
Project Description:
The project addresses the replacement of certain emergency generators and automatic transfer switches that are located at 10 of the District’s wastewater lift stations and are at the end of their useful lives.
Emergency generators power lift stations when power from PG&E is interrupted or shut down. The automatic transfer switch senses when PG&E power is interrupted and causes the emergency generator to turn on.
The 48 lift stations, as parts of the EMID sanitary sewer collection system, pump and convey sewage to receiving manholes at higher elevations. Emergency generators are located at EMID’s 14 major lift stations. Without emergency generators, in the event of a power outage, lift stations could fill with sewage and possibly overflow.
This project addresses replacing the emergency generator and automatic transfer switch (ATS) at Lift Stations 10, 12, 14, 15, 16, 26, 29, 40 and 59 and the emergency generator only at Lift Stations 22. $1,415,000.00 in funding has been appropriated from the equipment replacement fund for this project.
In August 2022, the District Board approved a professional services agreement with Freyer & Lauretta, Inc. (F&L), for the design of three critical and complex generator replacements at LS 22, 29, and 59. A basis of design report was prepared to evaluate generator sizing, pad sizing, and siting for the generators at these three lift stations, of which LS 29 requires additional work including relocation of the generator system from inside the Bank of America Building to within an easement on the property along Edgewater Blvd and permanent removal of an underground fuel tank.
As part of the analysis, it was determined that the estimated lead time for the new generator systems and accompanying ATSs will be 42 to 60 weeks. To minimize project delays, a pre-purchase package for the generators was released for bid in March 2024 and on August 19, 2024, the City Council approved the purchase agreement with Bay City Electric Works. While the systems are on order, F&L will continue to complete the preparation of the construction documents. An amendment to the existing contract with F&L was approved by the City Council on November 4, 2024, to include the design of the remaining 7 generators in the design documents. Staff intends to bid the 3 priority generators in Winter 2025 and the remaining 7 generators sometime in summer 2026.

SHELL BRIDGE SANITARY SEWER FORCE MAIN REHABILITATION (FY 2022-2023) Project Category: A
Project Description:
This project will address the rehabilitation or replacement of the 16” cast iron force main attached to the Shell Bridge. In February 2021, repairs were completed on a 12-inch diameter hole located on the top side of the pipe, that was identified during a routine maintenance inspection. At the same time the air release valve located on the force main at the high point on the bridge was also replaced.
The force main was originally constructed in the 1960s. The force main is a critical facility which delivers over 500,000 gallons of sewage (approximately one fifth of the wastewater generated in the District) daily to the San Mateo Wastewater Treatment Plant. The localized failure of the pipe and air release valve is due to the corrosive environment of wastewater and repeated exposure to hydrogen sulfide gas. Other portions of this main may have similarly deteriorated and be vulnerable to failure.
The City retained BKF Engineers to perform a preliminary condition assessment of the pipeline. In May 2023, wall-thickness testing along the pipe span was performed and a report was prepared summarizing the investigation and current condition of the pipe. The pipe’s current condition is adequate for lining, which would allow for a cost-effective rehabilitation that would extend the pipe’s useful life significantly.
The City Council awarded a contract to BKF to perform a feasibility study at its meeting on January 21, 2025 to assess the feasibility of lining the existing pipe. If lining is feasible, the City will work to prepare design drawings for rehabilitating the pipe. If it is not feasible, the City will look further into a full replacement of the pipe.

SANITARY SEWER MANHOLE REPLACEMENTS (FY 2026-2027)
Project Category: A
Project Description:
The project is a continuation of the District's on-going program to repair and replace elements of the sanitary sewer collection system to extend the useful life of the system. The project is comprised of replacing 16 manholes identified in the Wastewater Collection System Master Plan and by staff as a part of routine maintenance.
Replacement of manholes is typically required due to: (1) the settlement of manholes which adversely affects the connecting pipes and sewage flows; (2) the deterioration of the manhole due to the corrosive gas produced by sewage; and/or (3) the scouring of receiving manholes at the end of a force main, due to the velocity of wastewater pumped from the lift station via the force main pipeline.
These manholes operate as force main collectors, receiving wastewater flow from various lift stations.
During the condition assessment performed as part of the Wastewater Master Plan, Manholes 29-07, 18-01, 16-17, 14-02, 22-18, 22-19, 37-11, 29-31, 10-01, and 12-02 were witnessed to operate under turbulent conditions during force main discharge cycles. Additionally, staff has identified six (6) manholes located on trunk lines on East Hillsdale Boulevard, a major boulevard, and within busy intersections, adding complexity to their inspection and replacement: 29-08, 29-09, 29-10, 29-11, 29-12, and 29-13.
Replacement of these manholes and the intercepting piping will enhance station reliability and public safety.

OVERFLOW, REDUNDANCY, BYPASSING AND BACKUP POWER STUDY (FY 2027-2028) Project Category: B
Project Description:
Most EMID lift stations were constructed between the mid-1960s and the mid-1970s. The criticality of each existing lift station varies depending upon its relative position within the network, the expected flow rate of influent sewage, and the station’s existing structural and mechanical capacities. Various lift stations throughout the City are equipped with gravity overflow facilities or emergency generators to establish collection system redundancy and to prevent sanitary sewer overflows.
This project will provide for a complete system analysis to determine areas within the District’s collection system that are currently unprotected or minimally protected by existing overflow, redundancy, bypassing, and backup power features as identified in the Wastewater Collection System Master Plan completed in 2020. This analysis will take into consideration existing gravity overflow piping systems; permanent and portable emergency generators and connections and whether generator fuel capacity meets the minimum 12-hour run time requirement; and bypassing connections to identify collection system vulnerabilities in the event of a power outage and under wet-weather conditions.
This analysis will drive the prioritization of further redundancy measures and develop a cost/benefit analysis of those improvements. A placeholder for construction has been included. Based on the analysis, a construction budget will be refined and any additional funding required for construction will be brought back to the District Board.

WASTEWATER MASTER PLAN (FY 2028-2029)
Project Category: B
Project Description:
The District’s wastewater infrastructure system was constructed in the early 1960’s. The wastewater system consists of nearly 62 miles of gravity sewer lines, 10 miles of force mains, and 49 pump stations.
All sewage is ultimately conveyed to the San Mateo Wastewater Treatment Plant, which is jointly owned by EMID and the City of San Mateo through a Joint Powers Agreement (JPA).
In 1993, Harris Consultants, Inc. completed the Sewer Force Main Master Plan and Inspection Program report for the District. The report indicated that most of the force mains were in better-than-expected condition. In 2020, HydroScience completed the Wastewater Collection System Master Plan. The report generated a prioritized 20-Year Capital Improvement Plan and funding approach, which identified projects to address the District’s most critical lift stations and collection system “hot spots” for rehabilitation.
The proposed Wastewater Collection System Master Plan Study will include an evaluation of the overall wastewater system. The general scope of work includes data collection and review, flow monitoring, hydraulic model development, system performance evaluation and improvement needs, condition assessment and rehabilitation/replacement program, seismic vulnerability assessment, review of the District’s General Plan for future growth, and recommendations for 20-Year Capital Improvement Plan Development,.
The District currently has an active Capital Improvement Program (CIP) to rehabilitate its infrastructure.
By reviewing and analyzing existing system capacity and infrastructure to develop an analytical planning document, the District will have a means to identify deficiencies and prioritize improvements within the collection system.

SANITARY SEWER LIFT STATIONS IMPROVEMENTS - PHASE 7 (FY 2028-2029) Project Category: A
Project Description:
The project is part of a multi-phase program started in 2000 to rehabilitate EMID's sanitary sewer lift stations. The lift station improvement projects take place every four to five years.
The projects include preventative maintenance and upgrades to improve the reliability, durability, and sustainability of the lift stations. Lift stations in the District pump wastewater from the low points in the collection system to manholes at higher elevations.
The Phase 7 project addresses deficiencies at Lift Stations 36, 37, 38, and 39. The replacement of these lift stations will effectively remove the low capacity, capsule style, Gorman-Rupp dry deck lift stations which are mechanically unique and difficult to maintain for District maintenance staff. Removal of these outdated fiberglass dry deck stations will complete the conversion of all District lift stations to rail extraction, submersible pump style lift stations. Finalization of this conversion will establish uniformity across the District and ease the maintenance complexity for District staff. The project is expected to be a comprehensive replacement of all lift station features except the precast wet well, which will be equipped with a new traffic rated access hatch and concrete top.

SUBJECT: FIFTEEN YEAR GENERAL FUND CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT
PROJECTS PROGRAM AND FUNDING PLAN FOR THE
PREPARATION OF THE CITY’S FISCAL YEAR 2025-2026
BUDGET AND FIVE-YEAR FINANCIAL PLAN
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council receive and accept the City’s 15-year General Fund Capital Improvement Projects Program and its funding plan for the preparation of the City’s Fiscal Year 2025-2026 budget and 5-year financial plan.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
In 2010, the City Council approved a funding strategy for its capital improvement projects (CIP) in the form of a Long-Term CIP Funding program. The current model uses a 15- year capital expenditure forecast and funds those forecasted needs on an annual basis.
The City also generally refrains from using debt to finance its capital projects unless it is necessary because of the magnitude of the project (e.g., CIP 327-657 Levee Protection Planning and Improvements Project).
In FY 24-25, the CIP Fund resources yielded approximately $12.85 million of estimated undesignated Reserve Balance (inclusive of a $2 million emergency reserve). Based on the annual forecasted CIP costs in the 15-year CIP for FY 24-25 and the $12.85 million
4.2 4.2 Staff Report
88 5
8 7
reserve balance, annual General Fund transfers of $5.75 million to the City CIP Fund was identified to support these City CIP projects for the City 5-year Financial Plan.
However, the current accumulation of CIP Fund resources is expected to yield an approximate $25.45 million of undesignated Reserve Balance (almost double of FY 24- 25 reserve balance) by June 30, 2025. This is primarily due to the $5M that was reserved for the levee project that the City didn't spend towards the levee project. Based on the annual forecasted CIP costs in the 15-year CIP and the undesignated Reserve Balance of $24.5 million as of June 30, 2025, staff is seeking Council direction regarding continuing to hold the annual General Fund transfers at $5.75 million to the City CIP Fund or reducing it to $4.9 million to support these City CIP projects for the City 5-year Financial Plan.
To prepare the recommended CIP, City staff performed an annual long-term review and made modifications, as appropriate, to the funding amounts and timing of future projects.
Projects have been analyzed in primarily two categories based on their separate funding sources:
•City Capital Projects Fund (City CIP Fund) – includes projects such as bridges, lagoon structures, levees, parks, and buildings, which are funded from General Fund sources.
•Streets-Related Funding – includes streets and traffic signal projects, which are funded first through sources from Measure A, Gas Tax §2103, Measure M, SB 1 (Road Maintenance and Rehabilitation Account), and Measure W funds.
The analysis for City CIP Fund projects and Street-Related projects takes into consideration the existing fund balance resources projected to be available as of June 30, 2025, based on the latest estimates of CIP activity through the end of the current fiscal year and projected revenues available from applicable revenue sources. The analysis for the City CIP Fund ensures that the reserve balances stay above the minimum $2 million emergency reserve level, while the Streets-Related Funding analysis has no established minimum reserve level, since City CIP Funds can be drawn for those purposes if needed.
Total City CIP projects over the 15-year time horizon are increasing from $107.40 million to $108.37 million with parks projects accounting for $39.84 million of the total. These park projects include $2.52 million in ancillary funding from Park In Lieu and Park Facility Infrastructure fees and $2.2 million from the City’s Internal Service Funds. Street projects total $38.43 million, of which $35.24 million are from Special Revenue Funds and $0.48 million is from the Equipment Replacement Fund. Storm Water and Lagoon projects total $24 million from the City CIP fund.
The Streets-Related Funding plan, which is based on a Pavement Management Technical Assistance Program (P-TAP) analysis, includes a $2 million annual expenditure over the 15-year plan due to the rising cost of projects and bringing the City’s current 79 Pavement Condition Index (PCI) to 83 and maintain it at that level.

BACKGROUND
The City Council has made it a priority to ensure that the City’s infrastructure is well- maintained on an ongoing basis. Such proactive maintenance, repair, and replacement of infrastructure ensures that key systems are operating at peak levels, promotes safety, provides for a continuity of services to the community, maintains property values, and maintains the quality of life that the community has come to expect.
When the City was newer, capital improvement efforts focused heavily on the construction of new infrastructure. Now that the City is at build-out and over 50 years old, there has been a transition from new construction to proactive preventative infrastructure maintenance, which affects the types of projects and how those future CIP programs are funded to prioritize minimizing the potential for emergency repair situations.
Maintenance vs. CIP
Managing the City’s infrastructure manifests itself in the following ways:
•Proactive Maintenance – The preventative maintenance efforts of Public Works and Parks Maintenance crews on an ongoing basis reduce the overall future costs of City infrastructure. These ongoing operating costs offset the magnitude and expense of future infrastructure replacement projects. •New Infrastructure or Significant Infrastructure Replacement Projects – In some cases, there may be CIP projects that would create new infrastructure or projects that are considered so significant in nature that the entire infrastructure is replaced or built anew.
•Recurring Capital Improvement Projects – Some CIPs are considered “recurring” and amount to significant repair work, such as street overlays, park turf replacement, and levee maintenance. The underlying infrastructure is still usable, but these larger maintenance efforts help extend the useful lives of that infrastructure.
The first category, Proactive Maintenance Activities, is budgeted in the Public Works and Parks and Recreation Departments' annual operating budgets in the General Fund.
Projects in the third category, Recurring Capital Improvement Projects, are funded from either recurring revenue sources (e.g., Measure A, Gas Tax, Measure M, SB1, Measure W), or are otherwise funded from the City’s General Fund resources as transfers out to the City CIP Fund.
Exclusion of Enterprise Fund Assets
4.2 4.2 Staff Report
90 5
8 7
This report excludes the long-term CIP funding of Water and Wastewater system related projects for two primary reasons: (1) such projects are analyzed as part of the 15-year rate model process for each enterprise fund; and (2) the District Board can include such replacements when establishing water and wastewater rates. A separate report addresses the Water and Wastewater CIPs and capital funding.
ANALYSIS
Approach
Staff has updated the Long-Term CIP Funding analysis considering current maintenance efforts, assessment of replacement requirements, and replacement costs in the following seven (7) categories:
•Streets – including pavement management efforts (e.g., arterial and collector street overlays) and sidewalks, curbs, and gutters
•Bridges – including bridges and approaches owned by the City, and only bridge approaches for overcrossings not owned by the City (i.e., E. Hillsdale Boulevard/Marina Lagoon overcrossing, Foster City Boulevard/92 Overpass, Vintage Park/92 Overpass)
•Lagoon and Storm Water Structures – including bulkheads, dredging, boat ramps, culverts, inlets, storm water pumps, and the pump station building •Levee – including the levee infrastructure
•Parks – Park infrastructure including hardscapes, landscaping, restrooms, lighting, irrigation systems, and permanent park structures such as tennis and basketball courts. It also includes the medians and cul-de-sacs maintained throughout the City
•Street Lights, Traffic Signal, and Crosswalk Systems – physical light and signal structures, controllers, and systems
•Buildings – including the Government Center campus, Recreation Center campus, and the Corporation Yard (structures associated with parks are included in Parks above)
15-Year CIP Capital Improvement Projects Program and Key Changes from the Prior Year (Attachment 4)
The Capital Improvement Plan has been updated to best reflect the recommended projects needed in the 15-year term. Some key changes include the addition of new projects not previously included in the plan, removal of projects that are not anticipated to require additional funding in future years, and cost updates based on the significant inflationary increases currently being observed in the construction market.
Detailed information, summaries and calculations and listings of the 15-year projects are found in Attachments 1 to 8 to this report.
Assumptions
4.2 4.2 Staff Report
91 5
8 7
Funding Sources
In each category, initial assumptions were made as to the funding sources of various assets. Funding asset components from other sources (e.g. developer fees) was excluded from the analysis. If an asset replacement value was considered so significant that the only effective financing option was to use debt financing (e.g., replacement of City Hall or the voter approved G.O. Bond funding of the Levee Improvement Project), those assets were also excluded. Assets excluded in each category (including the assumed alternate funding source in parentheses) were as follows:
•Streets – LED signal faces and signal controllers, pedestrian LED and appurtenances, backlit street signs (ERF), and traffic improvements as part of the Multi-Project Traffic Improvements Project (fully funded by developers of the respective projects)
•Bridges – None
•Lagoon – Lagoon itself, shorelines, rip-rap, and retaining walls (debt financing); pump stations, gates, trash racks and flappers (Equipment Replacement Fund) •Levee – Complete rebuild or raising of Levee infrastructure to address sea level rise (debt financing)
•Parks – Complete park rebuilds “from the ground up” (potential debt financing) •Buildings – Minor replacement projects (Building Maintenance Fund) Expenditure Assumptions
Replacement values were reviewed and updated from the prior year’s analysis as necessary. All values were expressed in terms of future replacement, taking into consideration factors such as inflation, project size, timing and construction contingency funding.
Revenue Assumptions
Key revenue assumptions that affect funding sources are as follows:
City Capital Projects Funding (Attachment 1)
•Park-In-Lieu – $2.05 million is reserved from the Park-In-Lieu Fund Balance for improvements that will be recommended in the Park System Master Plan. •Park Facilities Impact Fees - $467,000 is designated for the Recreation Center Rebuild from Park Facilities Infrastructure Fees.
•Donations from Youth Sports Groups – $105,000 of donation reimbursements are included in revenue estimates over the next five years from various sports groups for the Sea Cloud Park projects are included in the 15-year CIP plan. •Grants – The Public Works and Parks Department routinely seek grants to supplement funding of its projects, and Public Works staff have been actively engaged in discussions with the City’s lobbyist to identify funding sources and eligible projects for funding. Until grant funds are identified for various projects
4.2 4.2 Staff Report
92 5
8 7
and are reasonably expected to be available, additional grant funds are excluded from this analysis.
Streets-Related Funding (Attachment 2)
•Measure A – This is a sales tax-based allocation. A revenue projection of $918,600 is included in FY 2025-2026 with 4% annual growth during the first five years and 3% annual growth thereafter.
•Gas Tax Section 2103 Funding – Revised estimates are based on the Gas Tax Swap legislation approved by the State in 2010, which swapped Prop 42 funding into the Gas Tax funding stream. Gas Tax (Sections 2105-2107) revenues are used to fund Public Works street maintenance operations, but Section 2103 funds must be used for roadway improvements and other transportation initiatives. Revenues for FY 2025-2026 are estimated to be $306,554 based on forecasts from the State and projected to increase 2.5% per year for the first five years and 2.0% annually thereafter. •Measure M – This measure, passed by voters in San Mateo County in November 2010, implemented a $10 fee added to vehicle license registrations of County residents for 25 years starting April 2011. Staff is projecting to receive $126,600 in FY 2025-2026 and an additional 2% annually thereafter.
Funds are administered by C/CAG and are provided on a reimbursement- basis. These funds may be used for such things as pavement resurfacing, pothole repair, signs and striping, traffic signals, street sweeping, storm-inlet cleaning, and local shuttles.
•SB 1 (Road Maintenance and Rehabilitation Account) – In 2017, the State passed the Road Repair and Accountability Act providing funding for local streets, roads, and other transportation uses. The funding was through a 12- cent per gallon increase to the gasoline excise tax and an additional 20-cent per gallon increase to the diesel excise tax, both of which took effect on November 1, 2017. An additional vehicle registration tax called “Transportation Improvement Fee” with rates based on the value of motor vehicles took effect on January 1, 2018. FY 2025-2026 SB1 revenues to the City are estimated at $883,812 with projected annual growth of 5% for the first five years of the plan and 4% thereafter.
•Measure W – Measure W was passed by the voters of San Mateo County in November 2018. The measure took effect on July 2019 and is estimated to bring approximately $451,000 to Foster City in FY 2025-2026 with projected annual growth of 5% for the first five years, and 4% thereafter and can be used to support traffic and traffic congestion relief related initiatives. •Transportation Impact Mitigation Fees – Development fees related to transportation are programmed into the CIP in the years in which they are anticipated to be received. Estimated amounts and timing are provided by the Community Development Department.
•Grants – Until such time grant funds are identified for various projects and are reasonably expected to be available, grant revenues are excluded from this analysis.

15-Year Cash Flow Methodology
Foster City uses a funding methodology that looks at the total replacement value of assets which are scheduled to be replaced in the next 15-years and then averages the replacement amount over the 15-year window. The funding amounts are then compared to the available fund balance reserves and anticipated future revenues.
For the City CIP Fund, a minimum emergency reserve requirement for capital improvement projects is $2 million. There is no reserve requirement for Street-Related Funding. The analysis also takes into consideration the projected Fund Balance in the Park-In-Lieu Fund to ensure that those funds are only spent on projects related to new parks or projects that increase the capacity of park amenities.
To the extent that there are not sufficient resources available from reserves and projected future revenues to maintain minimum reserves in the respected funding analysis, a transfer is identified from the City’s General Fund to ensure that the minimum fund balance reserve is met each year.
City Capital Projects Funding
Public Works, in consultation with the Parks and Recreation Department, prepared the 15-year project list considering replacement value, timing, and necessity. As indicated in the attached analysis, City staff is seeking Council direction on the annual General Fund transfers to the City Capital Projects Fund throughout the 15-Year CIP (FY 2025- 2026 to FY 2039-2040. The City will continue to maintain the minimum $2.0 million reserve and provide capacity for additional CIP projects.

Not Applicable
FISCAL ANALYSIS
Based on Council direction, the CIP funding plan will include either a $5.75 million or $4.9 million of annual transfers from the General Fund to the City CIP Fund for the preparation of the City’s Fiscal Year 2025-2026 budget and 5-year financial plan.

SUBJECT: FIFTEEN YEAR WATER AND WASTEWATER FUNDS CAPITAL
IMPROVEMENT PROJECTS PROGRAM AND FUNDING PLAN
FOR THE PREPARATION OF THE DISTRICT’S FISCAL YEAR
2025-2026 BUDGET AND FIVE-YEAR FINANCIAL PLAN
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the EMID Board of Directors receive and accept the District’s 15-year Water and Wastewater Funds Capital Improvement Projects Program and its funding plan for the preparation of the District’s Fiscal Year 2025-2026 budget and five- year financial plan.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
In 2010, the EMID Board approved a funding strategy for its Water and Wastewater Capital Improvement Projects (CIP) in the form of a Long-Term CIP Funding program.
The current model uses a 15-year capital expenditure forecast and funds those forecasted needs on an annual basis. The District also generally refrains from using debt to finance its capital projects unless it is necessary because of the magnitude of the project (e.g., the Wastewater Treatment Plant project (WWTP).
4.3 4.3 Staff Report
104
The CIP Reserve balances, inclusive of the minimum $2.0 million emergency reserves in both the Water and Wastewater Funds, are projected to be $5.44 million and $6.58 million respectively on June 30, 2025.
Based on the 15-year Water CIP assessment, City staff identified an annual cash funding need from Water operating funds of $2.6 million in years 1 and 2, followed by $2.5 million in years 3 and 4, $1.75 million in year 5, then leveling off at $1.5 million for the remaining 10 years of the 15-year plan. In addition, a loan of $4.0 million may be needed in year 3 to fund the new Water Tank Lining and Structural Retrofit CIP, which is shown in the Water Rate Model attached to the Water Rate Staff Report on the March 24, 2025 Budget Study Session agenda.
In the Wastewater Enterprise, staff has identified $23.2 million of CIP projects over the next two years (of which $11.3 million are for the WWTP project that is cash funded). As a result, annual funding of $16.0 million is needed for the first year before declining to $3.5 million annually for six years and leveling off at $2.5 million for the remaining 8 years of the 15-year CIP Plan. These funding levels have been incorporated into the rate recommendations which are detailed in separate reports on the March 24, 2025 Budget Study Session agenda.
BACKGROUND
The EMID Board of Directors has made it a priority to ensure that the District’s infrastructure is well maintained on an ongoing basis. Such proactive maintenance, repair, and replacement of infrastructure ensures that key systems are operating at peak levels, promotes safety, provides for a continuity of services to the community, maintains property values, and maintains the quality of life that the community has come to expect.
In the District’s early years, capital improvement efforts were primarily focused on the construction of new infrastructure. Now that the District is at build-out, there has been a transition from new construction to infrastructure maintenance and replacement (e.g. the WWTP project). This affects how the District characterizes and funds future CIP programs.
Maintenance vs. CIP
Managing the District’s infrastructure manifests itself in the following ways:
•Proactive Maintenance Activities – The preventative maintenance efforts of the District’s Maintenance crews on an ongoing basis reduce the overall future costs of District infrastructure. These ongoing operating costs offset the magnitude and expense of future infrastructure replacement projects.
•Recurring CIPs – Some CIPs are considered “recurring” and amount to significant repair work, such as pipe repairs, water valve replacements, and water tank lining and coating projects. The underlying infrastructure is still usable, but these larger maintenance efforts help to extend the useful lives of the underlying infrastructure.
4.3 4.3 Staff Report
105
•Infrastructure Replacement/Construction Projects – Other CIPs are considered so significant in nature that the entire infrastructure is replaced or built anew. An example of this are the Lift Station rehabilitation projects and the WWTP project.
The District has historically considered the latter two categories (Recurring CIPs and Infrastructure Replacement/Construction) as CIPs, and has funded these projects out of specifically designated CIP funds within each respective Enterprise fund. The District has also incorporated long-term CIP projects in its rate models so that the burden of such projects can be planned for and incorporated into the rate structure to mitigate the impact on customers over a longer period.
ANALYSIS
Approach
The District hired Bartle Wells Associates (BWA) to update the water and wastewater rate model to include the fiscal impacts of the WWTP project on the Long-Term CIP funding analysis and in light of current maintenance efforts, assessment of replacement requirements, and replacement costs in the following categories:
Water System
•Fire Hydrants – these important safety amenities are included in the water operations
•Water Infrastructure – this includes pipes, valves, seismic retrofits, water tank improvements (not replacement), and other elements of the delivery of water from the point of the District’s water structures to delivery at customers’ properties •Water Structures – this includes the four (4) water tanks and the booster pump station located at the Corporation Yard
Wastewater System
•Pipelines – the primary means of collecting wastewater from customers and transporting it to the WWTP in San Mateo
•Valves – which serve as critical junction and shutoff points within the system •Lift Stations – since Foster City is relatively flat, Lift Stations and their accompanying generators assist wastewater to flow through the system to the wastewater treatment plant where gravity would otherwise serve this purpose •Parallel Force Mains – critical elements at key points that connect the wastewater system
Next, District staff considered the level of maintenance and serviceability of capital assets in order to determine the appropriate estimated useful lives of each asset. District staff also considered the relative costs associated with such maintenance to evaluate the cost- effectiveness of such maintenance efforts.
15-Year CIP Capital Improvement Projects Program and Key Changes from the Prior Year (Attachment 5)
4.3 4.3 Staff Report
106
The Capital Improvement Plan has been updated to best reflect the recommended projects needed in the 15-year term. Some key changes include the addition of one (1) new water project and two (2) new wastewater projects not previously included in the plan, as well as the removal of projects that are currently funded and not anticipated to require additional funding in future years. Some projects reflect an expanded scope of work and some were updated based on the significant inflationary increases in the construction market. Specific and detailed information about the calculations performed and the 15-year projects are found in Attachments 1 to 6 to this report.
Assumptions
Funding Sources
Initial assumptions were made about the funding sources of the various assets (typically enterprise operating fund transfers to the enterprise CIP Fund, equipment replacement fund, and/or development capacity fees). If an asset’s replacement value would be considered so significant that the only effective funding option is to use debt financing (in the form of bonds, federal and state programs, bank loans, etc.) those assets would be excluded. The asset categories and their typical funding sources for the Water and Wastewater enterprise are as follows:
Water System
•Fire Hydrants – hydrants do not typically call for replacement; operating funds are used to replace hydrants which are damaged or require repair. •Valves – CIP funding is needed to replace, rehabilitate or repair various infrastructure elements such as pipes, valves, and other elements mentioned above when necessary; system wide replacement of each element type is not anticipated short of a catastrophic event.
•Water Structures – water tanks have very long lives; lining in the three steel tanks requires CIP funding approximately every 15 years.
•Water Meters – funding for meters that are replaced as part of CIPs is included in the analysis. Some water meter replacements that are in the Equipment Replacement Fund or replaced during maintenance operations are not considered as part of this analysis.
Wastewater System
•Pipes – CIP funding for pipes requiring rehabilitation or repair; system-wide replacement of pipes is not anticipated short of a catastrophic event •Valves – valve replacement costs are included in CIP plans. •Lift Stations – lift station rehabilitation projects require CIP funding; generators, their transfer switches, and portable generators that are funded through Equipment Replacement funds and are not considered as part of this analysis. •Parallel Force Mains – force main replacement requires CIP funding. •Wastewater Treatment System (WWTP) – rehabilitation that San Mateo is undertaking under its 10-year integrated Wastewater Master Plan (Clean Water Program) for which the District will be responsible for its proportionate share of
4.3 4.3 Staff Report
107
costs. Much of its costs are funded through debt financing with surplus working capital providing the balance of funding.
Expenditure Assumptions
Replacement values were reviewed and updated from the prior year’s analysis as necessary. All values were expressed in terms of future replacement, taking into consideration factors such as inflation, project size, timing and construction contingency funding.
Revenue Assumptions
In both the cases of Water and Wastewater rates, CIP funding is considered as part of the “fixed costs” of each system and is included in the 10-year rate model which projects costs using a “pay-as-you-go” philosophy. The rate model does not reflect the actual expenditures on CIPs; rather it reflects annual planned funding. 15-Year Funding Methodology
The District generally uses a funding methodology that looks at the total replacement value of assets that are scheduled to be replaced in the next 15-year window, and then averages the replacement amount over the 15-years. The Public Works Department prepared the 15-year project list considering replacement value, timing, and necessity.
Based upon staff’s review of the components of the 15-Year CIP funding needs, the average annual funding need is $1.833 million for Water CIP projects, and $3.774 million for Wastewater CIP projects.
This funding amount is then compared to the available fund balance reserves, and those reserves are compared to the cash flow requirements to fund projects in the 15-year forecast. The EMID Board of Directors' minimum emergency reserve requirement for capital improvement projects is $2.0 million each for the Water Capital Improvement Projects Fund and the Wastewater Capital Improvements Project Fund. The 15-Year Fund Balance analysis then reduces the 15-Year Average CIP funding to maintain the Capital Projects Fund Reserves in each fund above the $2 million minimum reserve threshold over the 15-year forecast.

NOTE:
This strategy identifies the average annual cash flow requirements for funding asset replacement over a 15-year forecast. (1) The District and the City of San Mateo are undertaking the rehabilitation of its jointly owned wastewater treatment plant (WWTP) located in San Mateo. Under the terms of the Joint Powers Agreement, EMID is responsible for 24.12% and the City of San Mateo is responsible for 75.88% of the WWTP costs. The estimated District apportionment of total project cost is $163.3 million through FY 2025-26.

SUBJECT: REVIEW OF PROJECTED WATER RATES FOR FY 2025-2026 TO FY 2029-2030 AND POLICY DIRECTION FOR RATE
NOTIFICATION UNDER PROPOSITION 218 AND AB 2257
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the Estero Municipal Improvement District (EMID) Board of Directors take the following actions by Minute Order:
1. Accept this report regarding Water Rates based upon the attached Draft Water Rate Study Update Results Memo dated March 19, 2025, prepared by Bartle Wells Associates (BWA); and
2. Approve the water rate setting procedures included in this staff report as Attachment 2 – Rate Setting Procedures which incorporate and implement the requirements contained in Proposition 218 and the procedures by which property owners are required to exhaust administrative remedies and record principles as set forth in Government Code section 53759.1 and 53759.2 (AB 2257); and
3. Provide direction on the issuance of a notice to all rate payers under the requirements of Proposition 218 for a public hearing to be held on June 2, 2025, regarding Water Rates for a 5-year period of FY 2025-2026 to FY 2029-2030.
EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
4.4 4.4 Staff Report
116
The EMID water enterprise service rates remain below average compared to other agencies on the Bay Area Peninsula. As of July 1, 2024, the Operating Reserve balance was $11,194,614 to be used in case of an operational emergency or to smooth any “rate shocks” to water customers. However, as much of EMID’s infrastructure is in its fifth decade in service, components are nearing the end of their expected service life and the need for additional funding for infrastructure improvements has been identified.
In Fiscal Year 2019- 2020, the District completed a 20-year master plan study which identified and prioritized projects for a 20-year time horizon. The costs for recommended projects have been incorporated into the 10-year Water Enterprise projections and the rate model developed by consultant BWA. The recommended water rates will provide sufficient revenue for necessary maintenance, operations, and capital improvements for the five-year period of FY 2025-2026 to 2029-2030.
Adopting a multi-year rate plan offers several advantages. These include predictability in rate adjustments, ensuring revenue stability through a long-term structure, improving operational efficiency, and certainty for ratepayers that minimizes protest . Although adoption of 5–year rates is recommended, it is further recommended that rates be reviewed annually to ensure they remain aligned with the cost of service.
Included below is a snapshot of Table 7 from Appendix C of the BWA Water Rate Study Update Results Memo (Attachment 1) This table shows the proposed water rates for FY 2025-2026 to FY 2029-2030 and a projection of future water rates necessary to support the operation. Water bills are composed of two components: a fixed monthly charge based on meter size, plus a water consumption charge based on each customer’s metered water use. The fixed monthly charge corresponds to the District’s fixed costs to provide water delivery to customers, based upon the size of the meter.
4.4 4.4 Staff Report
117
Included below is Table 9 from Attachment 1, which provides more information about how the proposed new rates impact ratepayers and projects the impact into the future.
The proposed water rates are designed to cover District operating and capital costs and maintain the operating fund above the 25% target reserve level. The recommended rates reflect the following:
•FY 2025-2026 – 3% volumetric rate increase and a 8.5% meter charge increase.
The average bill for a single-family home would increase by 5% which is equal to $4.05 per month.
•FY 2026-2027- 3.2% volumetric rate increase and a 8% meter charge increase The average bill for a single-family home would increase by 5% which is equal to $4.26 a month per month.
•FY 2027-2028 – 3.8% volumetric rate increase and a 7% meter charge increase The average bill for a single-family home would increase by 5% which is equal to $4.51 per month.
•FY 2028-2029 – 3.6% volumetric rate increase and a 7.1% meter charge increase. The average bill for a single-family home would increase by 5% which is equal to $4.71 per month.
•FY 2029-2030 – 3.6% volumetric rate increase and a 7% meter charge increase.
The average bill for a single-family home would increase by 5% which is equal to $4.94 per month.

Based upon the EMID Board of Directors' policy direction, the District will mail a notice to all ratepayers by March 31, 2025, in order to comply with the required procedures under Proposition 218 and AB 2257, as summarized below.
The hearing will be held on June 2, 2025, and, if adopted, the new rates will go into effect on July 1, 2025.
BACKGROUND/ANALYSIS
The District provides water service to approximately 8,295 water service and fire protection service accounts/meters. Most of the District’s customers are residential.
The primary drivers for the proposed rates include the following:
•Cost of Wholesale Water from the San Francisco Public Utilities Commission (SFPUC)
The primary driver for the proposed rate increases is projected increases in the SFPUC wholesale water rate. The SFPUC, the sole source of water supply for the District, is projecting the current rate of $5.67 per hundred cubic feet (hcf, also abbreviated as ccf) in FY 2025 will increase 2.1% to $5.79 in FY 2026, 1% to $5.85 in FY 2027, 1% to $5.91 in FY 2028, 5.2% to $6.22 in FY 2029, and 8% to $6.72 in FY 2030.The proposed water rates are designed to phase in District rate increases over time to avoid sharp increases. Any increases implemented by SFPUC above these values are recommended to be passed through to District customers via Government Code section 53756, as discussed later in this report.
•Bay Area Water Supply and Conservation Agency (BAWSCA) Surcharge.
The District will continue to make annual payments to BAWSCA for capital improvement costs associated with the $4.8 billion Water System Improvement Project (WSIP) to upgrade the Hetch Hetchy Water System. The bond surcharge for each BAWSCA agency is typically a fixed annual amount that is adopted each fiscal year by the BAWSCA Board to ensure collection of necessary revenue to pay that year’s obligated debt service. The payment is estimated at $675,000 annually.

•System Water Losses. Water utilities incur real losses from pipeline leakage and apparent losses when customer water consumption is not properly measured or billed. The current water rates are calculated with an assumption of
10.0% water loss based on the Water Division’s records. The proposed water rates are designed to cover the water loss and fund projects, such as water meter replacements, that reduce water loss.
•Capital Funding. EMID's strategy for funding long-term capital water improvements calls for an annual transfer from water operating revenues to the City's Capital Improvement Fund to fund projects over the next 15 years. The proposed rate projections allocate approximately $12 million to the Capital Improvement Account over the next five years to support critical infrastructure projects, including water tank lining, structural retrofitting, and an emergency bypass transmission main. In addition to annual transfers, BWA anticipates the need to secure $4 million in short term debt financing in Fiscal Year 2027- 2028 to provide the necessary cash to fund these improvements. While the specific funding source has not yet been identified, current planning assumptions estimate a 30-year loan at a 6% interest rate with 1.5% transaction costs.
By securing financing instead of immediately raising rates, the EMID can ensure that cash flow needs are met while allowing funds to be replenished over time.
Should staff determine that debt financing is recommended in FY 2027-2028, the recommendation will be presented to the EMID Board for approval. •Conservation Costs. District staff is recommending that the EMID Board of Directors continue to allocate $200,000 annually to the Water Sustainability Rebate Program to encourage voluntary water conservation efforts and provide funding for the District water leakage detection and repair program. •Operational Costs. BWA projections for operations and maintenance costs assume 4.0% annual increases in personnel costs, and an allowance for additional staff positions that may be needed over the 5-year term to support water enterprise projects subject to Council approval. Annual increases of 2.5% in all other costs (excluding wholesale water purchases) have been assumed to keep revenues in line with operating expenses.
Table 3 below summarizes the District’s projected costs which are anticipated to increase over the next five years between 2.1% and 6.6% annually.

Water/Wastewater Rate Assistance Program
In Rate Year 2020-2021, the District Board approved an assistance program for customers whose income also qualified them for Pacific Gas and Electric Company's California Alternate Rates for Energy (CARE) discount program. The cost to EMID of providing the Water/Wastewater Rate Assistance Program (W/WRAP) discount is paid by non-rate sources of revenue such as fines and penalties, to maintain compliance with California Proposition 218. Therefore, water rates are unaffected by the costs of the program.
The cost of the W/WRAP, based on current enrollment of 34 customers, is $6,120 per year for the Water Enterprise. Through the first eight months of FY 2024, revenue from delinquent payments totaled $27,000, which is sufficient to fund the program. Staff will continue to monitor the funding sources available for the program.
The W/WRAP is authorized by the EMID Board on an annual basis, and authorization to continue the program will be an action item on the agenda with the consideration of rates in June.
Rate Smoothing
The EMID Board of Directors has implemented a long-term rate smoothing model that takes into consideration the long-range wholesale water rate projections by the SFPUC
4.4 4.4 Staff Report
121
and significant capital improvements that have a profound impact on rates, such as the WSIP program. The policy goal of the rate smoothing model is to maintain revenue increases at no greater than 10% per year. The proposed FY 2025-2026 rates use a 10-year model, which has proven to be successful in dampening the impacts of significant rate increases imposed by the SFPUC on the ratepayers. “Pass Through” for Water Use Rates
A significant driver for the proposed water use rate increases is projected increases in the SFPUC wholesale water rate. Government Code section 53756 allows EMID to “pass through” changes to the wholesale cost to its customers. It is proposed that EMID implement a “pass-through” adjustment whereby changes by SFPUC to its rates in excess of the estimated increases will be reflected in EMID’s retail water rates for water during the rate period. EMID customers will be notified of any such pass-through adjustments at least 30 days prior to the change in rates (on or after each July 1 of the 5-year period). The rate model includes an escalator estimating SFPUC water use charges, and the pass through provision would only be implemented if the wholesale rate increase was in excess of the estimate. If the rate comes in lower than anticipated, the additional proceeds would be transferred to reserves to help smooth rates in the future.
Rate Survey
A survey of communities along the San Francisco Peninsula was conducted to compare the District’s typical residential monthly water bill with neighboring communities. The results of the survey are summarized on the Typical Single Family Residential Monthly Water Charges chart in Appendix B of Attachment 1. Since it is unknown what the comparator agencies will be proposing for FY 2025-2026, the District compares its current monthly residential water bills to the current rates of the neighboring agencies. The survey indicates the District's water rates remain among the lowest on the Peninsula. For FY 2024-2025, the average monthly water bill for the region (based on 8 hcf of water for monthly usage) is $116.09 per month and the District’s average monthly residential water bill is $81.65 per month, or about 30% less than the current average of neighboring communities. Since the proposed increase is also less than the FY 2025 average, it is likely that EMID customers will continue to pay lower than average water bills.
Public Hearing Notification
As identified in the second Recommended Action, staff has prepared the Rate Setting Procedures (Attachment 2) to document the process that EMID will follow leading up to and during the public hearing to consider approval of the updated water rates. Those Rate Setting Procedures are summarized below.
In past rate setting years, EMID has followed the provisions of Proposition 218 to provide rate payers with information regarding the public hearing to set rates.
4.4 4.4 Staff Report
122
Proposition 218, approved in 1996, established a process for public notification when increasing property related fees or charges, including water and wastewater rates. The notification requires a minimum 45-day period for review and opportunity to protest in writing prior to the close of the public hearing. If written protests are received by a majority of affected parcels prior to the close of the public hearing, then the rate change may not be implemented.
In addition to ongoing compliance with the requirements of Proposition 218, the Rate Setting Procedures also incorporate the optional requirements under AB 2257(Government Code sections 53759.1 and 53759.2, effective January 1, 2025, AB 2257). Under AB 2257, EMID is authorized to establish a supplemental process intended to provide an opportunity for property owners to submit a written objection regarding a new or increased water rate to EMID's attention early in the rate consideration process. Accordingly, this provides an opportunity for EMID to address or resolve any objections before the EMID Board makes a final decision on whether to adopt a proposed rate pursuant to Proposition 218. Unlike written protests under Proposition 218, written objections under AB 2257 must specify the grounds for alleging the proposed rates do not comply with Proposition 218, among other requirements.
Since written objections are required to provide more detail and be submitted earlier than written protests, written objections will also serve as written protests; however, written protests will not serve as written objections.
Instituting AB 2257 prohibits a person or entity from bringing a judicial action or proceeding alleging noncompliance with Proposition 218 (Article XIII D of the California Constitution) for those water rates, unless that person or entity has timely submitted to EMID a written objection to that rate that specifies the grounds for alleging noncompliance with Proposition 218.
Based on the Boards’ direction, staff will prepare a notice that will be mailed to all ratepayers on or before March 31, 2025, in compliance with the provisions of Proposition 218 and AB 2257. Written objections must be received by EMID by May 15, 2025. EMID staff will consider each timely written objection and provide a written response that will be published with the agenda for the public hearing of June 2, 2025.
Written protests must be received by the close of the public hearing.
A public hearing on and adoption of the proposed rates will be agendized for the June 2, 2025 EMID Board of Directors regular meeting in conjunction with the FY 2025-2026 Annual Budget Public Hearing. If adopted, the new rates will become effective July 1, 2025. It the opinion of District staff that conservative assumptions have been employed in the creation of the attached rate models and that the rates proposed herein are the maximum rates that would be recommended. At the public hearing, the EMID Board would have the option to adopt rates equal to or lower than what is noticed to rate payers under Proposition 218, but it may not increase the rates above what is noticed.

FROM: Bartle Wells Associates
SUBJECT: Water Rate Study Update Results DRAFT
SUMMARY OF FINDINGS AND RECOMMENDATIONS
Introduction and Background
The Estero Municipal Improvement District (District ) engaged Bartle Wells Associates (BWA) to develop 10-year financial projections for the District’s Water Enterprise and to project water rate adjustments for the next five-year period. BWA last conducted formal rate studies in 20 24, which resulted in a one -year rate approval for water rates for FY 2025.
Current and projected water service rates are in the low range compared to other agencies on the Peninsula, however, the District water enterprise s face unique infrastructure funding challenges.
Water Enterprise Summary
The primary driver for the proposed rate increases is to smooth District rate increases due to projected increases in the San Francisco Public Utilities Commission (SFPUC) wholesale water rate. The rate increase is due to a variety of factors including debt service on existing and newly issued bonds, continued low water usage, and repayment of the balancing account. Additionally, the District has increased the annual amount of projected capital expenditure transfers from the operating reserve fund to the capital reserve fund from $1 million to $2.4 million on average.
SFPUC, the sole source of water supply for the District, released updated projections for their wholesale rate for the next 5 years (FY 2026 to FY 2030) . SFPUC is projecting the current rate of $5.67 in FY 2025 per hundred cubic feet (ccf) will increase 2.1% to $5.79 in FY 2026, 1% to $5.85 in FY 2027, 1% to $5.91 in FY 2028, 5.2% to $6.22 in FY 2029, and 8% to $6.72 in FY 2030. Any increases implemented by SFPUC above these values are

recommended to be passed through to District customers via Government Code section 53756, as explained on page 11.
BWA projects the SFPUC rate will increase 3.5% annually beyond FY 2030 based on the average increase projected by SFPUC. 3.5% also corresponds well to BWA’s estimate of future cost inflation in the economy.
SFPUC rates were historically held level at $4.10/ccf for six years (FY 2017 to FY 2022) despite escalating SFPUC debt service and operating costs through use of a balancing account. The balancing account was built up from SFPUC wholesale water sales exceeding projections used in rate setting . In FY 2023, the wholesale rate increased 15.9% to $4.75/ccf, 9.7% to $5.21 in FY 2024, and 8.8% to $5.67 in FY 2025.
During the time that SFPUC wholesale rates were held flat by the balancing account, the District has been gradually increasing its volumetric rates in anticipation of projected wholesale rate increases by SFPUC. While the wholesale rate increases have come to fruition, the District’s rates have been phased to ensure sufficient revenues and avoid sharp increases based on a rate smoothing model.
The District will also continue to make annual payments, projected to be $ 675,000 annually, to the Bay Area Water Supply and Conservation Agency (BAWSCA) for the Water System Improvement Project (WSIP) that was funded through the issuance of bonds. The water enterprise’s single largest cost is water purchases from SFPUC.
WSIP is a multi- year capital initiative with a budget of $4.8 billion. Its goal is to enhance both the regional and local water systems managed by the SFPUC. The program focuses on repairing, replacing, and seismically upgrading critical parts of the Hetch Hetchy Regional Water System. WSIP encompasses 87 projects, including 35 local projects within San Francisco and 52 regional projects across seven counties, extending from the Sierra foothills to San Francisco. By October 2020, the San Francisco portion of the program had been fully completed. In March 2022, the SFPUC Commission approved updates to the program, including a schedule extension to February 2027.
BWA proposed water rates are designed to maintain the operating fund above target levels (90 days operating expenses in reserves) and cover District operating and capital costs. The District is projected to set aside approximately $12 million for capital improvements over the next 5 years. The capital improvement set aside amount is based on funding the District’s water master plan. Major projects include valve replacements,
4.4 Attachment 1 - Bartle Wells Associates Water Rate Study Update Results Memo dated March 19, 2025
126
3 | Page
water tank lining and structural retrofitting, and an emergency bypass transmission main, among others. BWA projects the District will need to obtain $ 4 million of debt financing to fund the capital improvements in FY 2028. The source of the funds is unknown currently and is estimated to be a 30-year loan at 6% interest with 1.5% transaction costs for planning purposes.
Proposed water rates are based on 1 0% water loss. That is, 90 % of the water EMID purchases are sold to retail customers. The losses have decreased over time due to the District’s efforts to replace aging meters. Water loss refers to the difference between the amount of water put into the distribution system and the amount of water billed to customers. This loss can be categorized into two main types:
• Real Losses: These are physical losses of water from the system due to leaks, overflows, or breaks in the water mains, service lines, and other infrastructure.
Real losses can be caused by aging infrastructure, corrosion, damage, or faulty installation.
• Apparent Losses: These are losses caused by non-infrastructure related incidents such as inaccuracies in metering, data handling errors, or unauthorized consumption (water theft).
The District separates its costs into variable costs (captured by a volumetric rate) and fixed costs (captured by a meter charge rate). (see page 1 8 and Table 6.) To maintain the operating reserve s, fund the capital set aside, and phase in volumetric rates , BWA recommends the District implement a 3% volumetric rate increase and a 8.5% meter charge increase in FY 2026 . The average bill for a single family home would increase by 5% or $4.05 per month.
Detailed water rate calculations are shown in APPENDIX C.

Rate Survey
A survey of communities along the San Francisco Peninsula was conducted to compare the District’s typical residential monthly water bills with neighboring communities. The results of the water survey are summarized in APPENDIX B.
The water survey compares a monthly water bill for 8 units (1 unit = 1 ccf) of water which would be a common residential consumption. Including the recommended increase, the District’s average monthly water bill proposed for FY 2026 is $85.70. Since it is unknown what the comparator agencies are proposing for FY 2026, the District compares its FY 2025 monthly residential water bills to the FY 2025 monthly residential water bills for the neighboring agencies. The survey indicates that the District’s water rates are among the lowest on the Peninsula. The average monthly water bill for the region based on 8 ccf is $116.09 per month and the District’s average monthly residential water bill is $81.65 per month, or about 30% less. Since the proposed increase is also less than the FY 2025 average, it is likely that EMID customers will continue to pay lower than average water bills.

Water Enterprise Fund
The District currently provides water service to a population of approximately 3 6,500.
Most of the District’s customers are residential. Table 1 shows approximately 8,295 accounts/meters that allow for water service and fire protection service.
Meter ratios reflect the proportionate volume of water that may flow through the various meter sizes. The total 3/4” meter equivalents in the District amounts to 20,229 based on industry standard meter ratios established by the American Water Works Association (AWWA).
Private fire meter ratios are set at 35% of regular meter ratios due to lower usage frequency, as they are primarily for emergency use. Fire meters are often on standby and only used during fire emergencies, resulting in less operational time and reduced maintenance and inspection requirements compared to regular water meters. Fire service lines of 1-1/2" and smaller diameters often have similar flow rates and pressure requirements, making it practical to treat them as a single category for cost and rate purposes.
The water enterprise service area includes Foster City and the Mariner’s Island area shown in APPENDIX D.

Table 4 summarizes the current water rates. The District has variable expenditures which are expenditures that are impacted by the amount of water its customers consume. These costs must be recouped via its volumetric water charge, $6.60 per ccf in FY 2025. Likewise, the District’s meter charges recover fixed expenditures, expenditures that are fixed regardless of amount of water that is consumed, $28.85 for a ¾” meter in FY 2025.
District Tiered Rates Cost Basis
The District has a two-tiered model for its residential customers where higher levels of water consumption are subject to higher water rates based on a proportionate share of conservation program costs. Commercial customers are charged a uniform rate, which includes commercial customers’ proportionate share of conservation program costs.
Water conservation programs for District customers aim to reduce water use in the District service area and help water users save water and money. Conservation efforts include rebates, such as conversion of living grass lawn to more water-wise options, rain barrels to collect rainwater, smart irrigation controllers to minimize excess water use; education, including free landscaping and gardening classes and educational programs for students in local schools and the Foster City Library; self-audit kits for indoor water use and landscape audits for outdoor water use, and more.
Conservation program costs of $200,000 per year are allocated to each customer class based on the proportionate impact of each customer class on the need for the program and its costs.
Residential and irrigation customers pay conservation costs on Tier 2 usage only, while commercial customers pay their share of conservation costs on each unit of water usage.
For its irrigation customers, the District has worked with John Whitcomb of Waterfluence to assign each irrigation customer a water budget. Any water consumed above the irrigation customers allotted amount is subject to a higher Tier 2 rate based on each customer’s share of conservation program costs.
APPENDIX A shows the District’s historical water use trends from the prior year . BWA’s proposed rates are designed to match volumetric expenses (such as water purchases) with volumetric revenue. The rate structure mitigates over or under collecting revenue due to fluctuations in water use.
4.4 Attachment 1 - Bartle Wells Associates Water Rate Study Update Results Memo dated March 19, 2025
134
11 | Page
District Residential Tier Allotments
The tiered rate allotments are designed to align with the state’s gallon per capita per day (GPCD) mandate. Low-tier users are already consuming water within the prescribed limits, meaning their consumption does not drive the need for the conservation program. The District is required to incur the costs of the conservation program to offset water overuse by those categories of water users (Tier 2 users) that exceed the state’s GPCD threshold. Thus, those Tier 2 users are required to pay their proportionate share of the costs of the conservation program.
While Tier 1 users participate in the program, their conservation efforts are aimed at offsetting the overuse of Tier 2 users. The necessity for Tier 1 conservation arises because of the high consumption in Tier 2.
SFPUC Wholesale Rate Passthrough
SFPUC establishes the wholesale water rate and for each unit of water the District purchases, which accounts for 100% of the District’s water supply. If SFPUC increases the wholesale water rate, the District is authorized to pass through the increase to customers in accordance with Government Code section 53756.
The formula for calculating the pass through amount will be: (Additional SFPUC $ Amount Per CCF Above Study Projections / 0.9) additional charge for each unit of water usage, where 0.9 accounts for 10% water loss. The District will provide 30 days’ notice before passing through an increase in water rates. The District will not convene another public hearing before passing through any increase in the District’s water rates.
For example, if the SFPUC rate in FY 2027 is $5.94, the pass through would be calculated as the following: ($5.94-$5.85)/0.9 = $0.10 per ccf. $0.10 per ccf would be added to all District volumetric rates. The 0.9 factor is designed to adjust for the fact that the District sells 90% of its water purchases.
To elucidate the pass -through calculation with a simple example: Suppose an individual purchases 10 apples for $1 and is only able to sell 5 of them. To fully recover the cost, the selling price per apple would need to be $2. This scenario represents a loss percentage of 50%.
4.4 Attachment 1 - Bartle Wells Associates Water Rate Study Update Results Memo dated March 19, 2025
135
12 | Page
Now, if the purchase price per apple doubles to $2 and the price increase is only raised by the difference (i.e., $1), then the total expenditure would be $20 (10 apples x $2 per apple).
However, only $15 would be generated in revenue (5 apples x $3 per apple). Therefore, the price increase must be passed on by dividing the increase by (1 - loss percentage).
The necessary price increase should be calculated as: ($1/0.5) = $2
With this adjustment, the expenditure remains $20 (10 apples x $2 per apple) and the revenue generated is $20 (5 apples x $4 per apple).

Low Income Discount
Currently the District has approximately 34 customers enrolled in the Water/Wastewater Rate Assistance Program (WWRAP), which was implemented in 2020. Customers meeting the eligibility and qualification requirements below are granted a discount of up to $15 per month each on their qualifying Water accounts, not to exceed a $30 per month discount per customer. To be eligible for the WWRAP, customers must show that they qualify for the PG&E CARE Program or other public assistance program or submit proof of income eligibility.
The estimated maximum potential cost of a $15/month discount for 34 customers amounts to $6,120 per year. Since the low income discount revenue sources cannot be funded with rates, rates are unaffected by the decision on the terms of the program and hence are not required to be included in the Proposition 218 notification.
