List your qualifications for this
appointment:
- Resident of Santa Clara County for my entire life, except for college (but was next door in Alameda County, visiting on weekends)
- Certified in change management (ProSci, ADKAR) and certificate in project management
- Background in biomedical engineering (BS) and healthcare management (MBA) - Engineering lead with 6 years in regulated healthcare systems - Passionate about inclusive representation.

Arts:
- Experience supporting interdisciplinary, community-facing initiatives through a south bay Young Professionals group. I co-founded it in summer 2022 and am stepping down after 4 years this August. We have weekly events which average 100 attendees; annual dinner galas with 300 attendees (which include programming, speeches, and silent auctions); annual "bazaar" markets with over 30 local small businesses, most of which are owned by our under 35 years old community members; and more. Specifically, I've been spearheading our Vendors and Partners org to amplify our local small businesses - most of our vendors are food, drink, clothing, and arts vendors! It's incredibly amazing to connect to so many businesses and people, and be a part of their journey. It's even more amazing to watch the community connect, and give back to each other.

--- Strong organizational and evaluation skills for programs and proposals through the above experience.

Building / Physically Challenged Board of Appeals:
- Engineering background from UC Berkeley; while the specific content covered in this role might be new, I'm comfortable interpreting technical content and excited to learn!
- Resident Assistant at UC Berkeley: this role had an extremely heavy focus on inclusivity for folks of different backgrounds and abilities. We were trained to be empathetic, and able to best serve the needs of everyone, in both planning of spaces/programs, and also during times of conflict or high stress. --- Due to the inherent focus on housing, we were also trained on local housing and renting laws, involved with housing proposals in the city, and learned to account for so many factors when deciding construction and spaces. For example: physical accessibility, especially since Berkeley is set into the hillside; grandfathered structures and concerns, including earthquake safety (buildings next to the fault), ancient elevators, and steep stairs; traffic patterns; realistic needs of the community projected out a decade or more; gentrification; affordability; etc.

List any service to the community
incluiding any prior appointments:

Election Officer:
- Started working the polls in high school, and continued after, in various positions, including at the County Office counting ballots. Did this because it's incredibly important for all citizens of this country to know how the system works, and to support it. I've taken time off from work to work the polls! Young professionals group:
- Currently at 3.5 years (4 years by August) of cofounding and leading a young professionals group that has fostered a space for individuals ages 22-35 to reconnect and grow. I specifically focus on supporting and amplifying local small businesses created by this age group!
Poverty Intern:
- In college, I minored in Global Poverty & Practice, which had a requirement to intern full-time on the ground at an organization focused on poverty alleviation. I chose to do my practice experience in the slums in Pakistan, focused on health care. This experience has strongly shaped the way I view civic service, because I was able to see how organizations work within the system and with governments to provide services for the public. Most importantly, I saw the strengths of each approach and where they supplemented each others' weaknesses through collaborations.

Unofficial: Sister of a former Youth Commissioner & Designer of the Martin Luther King Library TeenHQ
- My younger sister served on Campbell Youth Commission, and as her only and older sister, I had a front row seat when I wasn't helping behind the scenes! - She also was on the team that designed and implemented the TeenHQ at MLK in SJ - again, providing support and learning how we can design spaces to bring people back to community. Got to see the struggle for youth voices to be heard, and how to navigate local governances in order to get approvals.

What are your goals while serving
on this
Board/Commission/Committee?
Arts & Culture:

When I moved to Gilroy, I was in awe of the community - our entire block came out to greet us and welcome us, whereas in San Jose our next door neighbors would just wave. People pause, smile, open doors, and are kind. Yet when driving around town, there aren't that many people out and about. Our downtown is so quiet, aside from the weekend. I hope to see our public spaces filled with community again, and would love to work on that.

Additionally, in high school, I took art classes in participated in school and district level competitions in 2D art. I earned a few awards, and was passionate about continuing, but sadly, the Silicon Valley grind took over in college and I dropped it.

I'm working on picking it up again, and would love to help others reconnect with their creative sides. It's so incredibly important to cultivate our passions and creativity ESPECIALLY in the age of AI. As an engineer, I have a front row seat to the benefits but also costs to our society - first of which is definitely creativity.

Building / Physically Challenged Board of Appeals:

Since COVID, there's been a large migration of folks moving in from central San Jose - which is driving wonderful growth to our city, and revitalizing some local small businesses. However, we also need to make sure growth is sustainable and practical by balancing infrastructure needs. Additionally, especially as a former college RA, I want to work on sustainable and affordable housing. Lastly, making our public spaces accessible to all is incredibly important for a thriving community.

I hope to make our spaces - specifically downtown and our schools - more physically accessible. A lot of our youth and young adults leave for San Jose or other areas for a variety of reasons, but making our spaces more accessible.

Why are you most qualified to
serve on this
Board/Commission/Committee?
I'm very passionate about civic engagement, community service, strengthening neighborly ties, and giving back in any way. I hope to utilize my skills here, and most importantly, grow and learn from my community.

By clicking on this box, I declare

Page 28 of 156 ends

6.2. ANALYSIS
The Project scope entailed a sidewalk gap closure consisting of approximately 1,300 square feet of concrete sidewalk and driveways, as well as minor storm drainage improvements.

The project occurred from the Senior Gateway Apartments development to the pending construction at the adjacent ROEM Apartments development. This was a critical gap closure that will improve pedestrian connectivity in conjunction with the upcoming Monterey HAWK Signal project.

The overall schedule of Project construction was fifteen working days but was extended due to inclement weather. Construction began on January 29, 2026, and was completed on March 3, 2026.

Staff recommends the City Council approve the Notice of Completion and the final construction contract amount of $152,974.00 for the FY26 CDBG Sidewalk and Curb Ramp Project No. 26-PW-303.

ALTERNATIVES
N/A

FISCAL IMPACT/FUNDING SOURCE
Construction of this Project was funded through CDBG Fund, Fund 245. There were no impacts to the City’s General Fund.

The total Project construction cost was $152,974.00. The CDBG grant amount awarded for sidewalk and curb ramp improvements in FY26 was $176,190.14. The remaining balance of $23,216.14 will go back into the City’s CDBG Fund.

STAFF REPORT
Agenda Item Title: Resolution Establishing Operating Hours for City-Owned Public Off-Street Parking Lots
Meeting Date: March 16, 2026
From: Matt Morley, City Administrator
Department: Public Works
Submitted by: John Doughty, Public Works Director
Prepared by: Matt Jones, Deputy Public Works Director
STRATEGIC PLAN GOALS: Not Applicable

RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt a Resolution:
1) Establishing uniform operating hours for all City-owned public off-street parking lots as follows: Open: 5:00 a.m. to 12:00 a.m. (midnight); Closed: 12:00 a.m. to 5:00 a.m. 2) Approving official names and identification numbers for City-owned public off-street parking lots; and
3) Authorizing staff to fabricate and install regulatory signage reflecting approved operating hours and parking lot identification.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
City-owned public off-street parking lots are currently regulated through a combination of historic resolutions and operational practices, resulting in inconsistent or unclear operating hours across lots.

Staff recommends adoption of a Resolution pursuant to Gilroy City Code (GCC) Sections 15.72–15.75 establishing uniform operating hours for all City-owned public offPage 34 of 156

6.3. street parking lots and formally approving parking lot names and identification numbers.

The proposed action will provide consistent operating hours citywide (Open--5:00 AM to midnight/Closed midnight to 5:00 AM), improve clarity for the public, and support consistent application of existing parking regulations. In addition, establishing official lot names and identification numbers will provide consistent naming convention, support consistent signage, and provide a clear framework for marketing as well as operational management and enforcement.

Staff is also seeking authorization to fabricate and install updated regulatory signage reflecting the approved operating hours and lot identification.

BACKGROUND
Public off-street parking lots are governed by GCC Division 2, Sections 15.72 through

15.75. Under the City Code:
• Public off-street parking lots are designated by City Council resolution; • Methods of regulation and control are determined by the City Council; • Hours of operation must be established by resolution; and • Parking regulations become enforceable when appropriate signage is installed.

Over time, individual parking lots have been regulated through either adoption of resolutions and/or via historical operational practices. As a result, operating hours are not consistently established or clearly communicated across all City-owned parking lots.

In recent months, staff has received public inquiries and service requests related to overnight parking activity in City-owned parking lots. These inquiries highlighted the need for clear and consistent operating hours to improve public understanding, operational clarity, and support enforcement activity.

ANALYSIS
The proposed resolution establishes uniform operating hours for all City-owned public off-street parking lots and authorizes installation of updated signage to provide clear notice to the public. In addition, staff is proposing to formally approve parking lot names and identification numbers for City-owned public off-street parking lots. Historically, lots have been referenced using informal or location-based descriptions, which can create inconsistencies in signage, enforcement, and internal operations.

Establishing uniform operating hours for City-owned public off-street parking lots provides several operational benefits:
• Creates consistent expectations for the public

Page 35 of 156 ends

6.3. • Improves clarity for enforcement and City operations • Reduces confusion caused by varying or unclear hours
• Supports consistent signage and communication citywide The proposed operating hours of 5:00 a.m. to 12:00 a.m. balance the needs of nearby businesses with the need to discourage overnight activities, which in addition to parking, often results in illegal dumping and other illicit activities.

Gilroy City Code Section 15.84 already authorizes the Police Department to remove vehicles parked in violation of applicable parking regulations or vehicles left on public off-street parking lots for more than twenty-four (24) hours. Establishing uniform operating hours and updated signage provides clear notice to the public and supports consistent application of existing enforcement authority. This action does not create new enforcement authority but instead clarifies operating conditions and improves consistency in how existing regulations are communicated and applied.

Covenant Compliance
There is currently a recorded parking covenant which requires the City to provide up to ten (10) twenty-four-hour parking permits for a multi-family development. The proposed resolution authorizes staff to coordinate issuance and management of those permits while maintaining overall lot control.

Standardization of Parking Lot Names and Identification Numbers Formal approval of parking lot names and identification numbers provides operational consistency and clarity for the public. Standardized lot identification:
• Supports consistent signage and wayfinding
• Improves enforcement accuracy
• Simplifies internal operations and communication
• Provides a clear framework for future parking management decisions Proposed Off-Street City-Owned Parking Lot Names and Numbers (see Attachment 2)

1. P1 – Lewis Lot

2. P2 – Eigleberry Lot

3. P3 – 5th Street Lot

4. P4 – Paseo Lot

5. P5 – Railroad Lot

6. P6 – Hornlein Lot

7. P7 – Downtown Gourmet Alley Lot

9. P9 – Civic Center Lots

10. P10 – Library Lot

Page 36 of 156 ends

6.3. 11. P11 – Hanna Street Lot
This effort will also include the fabrication and installation of signage which is consistent in every respect throughout the lot system. This will be helpful to downtown patrons and Gilroy Police Department staff.

ALTERNATIVES

1. Maintain existing conditions. This will continue operating under varying historical practices and signage. Operating hours remain inconsistent or unclear which exacerbates public confusion and operational inconsistencies. This alternative is not recommended.

2. Establish different hours than recommended. If this option is chosen, staff would recommend establishing consistent operating hours across all parking lots. Establishing varying hours by lot will be confusing to patrons and Gilroy Police Department alike.

FISCAL IMPACT/FUNDING SOURCE
Implementation will require fabrication and installation of updated regulatory signage reflecting approved operating hours and lot identification. The total estimated cost for materials and labor is approximately $5,000. Sufficient funds are available within the Public Works Streets Section Operations Budget to cover implementation costs. No additional appropriation is required.

PUBLIC OUTREACH
This item responds in part to public inquiries and service requests regarding overnight parking activity in City-owned parking lots.

Following Council approval, staff will provide public notification through the Chamber of Commerce and updated signage and communication regarding operating hours to the Downtown Gilroy Business Association.

NEXT STEPS
Upon City Council adoption of the Resolution, staff will:

1. Update internal records and mapping to reflect approved lot names and numbers.

2. Fabricate and install updated signage reflecting lot identification and operating hours.

3. Provide public notification and education regarding operating hours.

Page 37 of 156 ends

6.6. ANALYSIS
The Developer is requesting City Council approval of the Final Map, Tract 10500, and to enter into a Property Improvement Agreement (PIA 2026-03) with the City for the project’s Public Improvements. The project includes 40 multifamily condominium parcels for up to 202 townhouse units.

The Public Improvements include new streets, street pavement widening, pavement repairs, pavement grinding and paving, microsurface pavement treatment, trail, grading, signing, striping, curb ramps, curb, gutter, sidewalk, lighting, joint trench, underground rule 20, landscaping, storm drain, water, sanitary sewer, stormwater management facilities, new signalized intersection, existing signal modifications, and necessary utility extension and connection to serve the development. As part of the Property Improvement Agreement, the Developer is required to provide Faithful Performance and Payment Bonds of $5,059,049 for 100% of the estimated construction cost of the improvements.

Tract 10500 Final Map and Property Improvement Agreement 2026-03 have been deemed consistent with the tentative map and conditions of approval and therefore are recommended for City Council approval and recordation with Santa Clara County.

ALTERNATIVES

Submitted by: John Doughty, Public Works Director
Prepared by: Mark Johnson, Environmental Programs Manager STRATEGIC PLAN GOALS: Maintain and Improve City Infrastructure

RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends the City Council:

1. Adopt a resolution amending the Fiscal Year 2026 Capital Budget by appropriating $157,707 from Fund 422 to Capital Project No. 800460; and

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Under the Statewide Trash Provisions, municipalities must implement controls to prevent trash discharges from the municipal stormwater system. The State Water Board’s Informal Draft Phase II MS4 permit process includes interim compliance milestones currently anticipated as 30% priority land use area coverage by December 2, 2026, 65% by December 2, 2028, and 100% by December 2, 2030. This project is intended to support progress toward the first milestone using certified small trash capture devices.

Page 81 of 156 ends

7.1. The City Council authorized staff to release an Invitation to Bid at its December 8, 2025, meeting.

BACKGROUND
On January 26, 2025, Council reviewed a proposed project to install certified small trash capture devices as an early compliance action under the Phase II MS4 trash requirements. At that meeting, Council requested additional evaluation of options and a clearer path to compliance and tabled the item pending responses and clarification.

On December 8, 2025, staff returned to City Council with additional information addressing questions raised during the January 26, 2025, meeting. Council authorized staff to solicit bids for installation of 73 certified small trash capture devices during this meeting.

The Invitation to Bid was released on January 14, 2026, one addendum was issued on January 26, 2026, and five sealed bids were received at the February 4, 2026, bid opening.

ANALYSIS
This project was publicly advertised, and five sealed bids were received on February 4, 2026. A bid summary is provided below.

RANK COMPANY NAME BID
TOTAL
1 Storm Water Inspection & Maintenance
Services Inc. / An Apex Company
$143,370
2 Pipe and Plant Solutions Inc. $244,448
3 Marin Development Interest LLC. $259,400
4 Monterey Peninsula Engineering $314,990
5 Molokai Electric LLC $625,000
The lowest responsive and responsible bidder was Storm Water Inspection & Maintenance Services Inc. / An Apex Company with a bid of $143,370. Staff recommends a 10% contingency of $14,337 for potential unforeseen conditions, for a total construction authorization of $157,707. Staff reviewed the bid package for responsiveness and standard contractor compliance requirements.

This staff report is limited to award of the construction contract for installation of the 73 certified small trash capture devices. Staff is continuing to evaluate longer-term compliance options, including hydrodynamic separators and a Track 2 equivalent approach, and will return to Council with a separate report and recommended

Page 82 of 156 ends

7.1. compliance strategy and schedule through 2030.

ALTERNATIVES
The alternative to the staff recommendation is to reject all bids and not award the construction contract. This option is not recommended because staff does not believe there is adequate time to implement alternative strategies to meet the first compliance deadline of December 2, 2026, for 30% coverage of priority land use areas.

FISCAL IMPACT/FUNDING SOURCE
The construction contract amount is $143,370. With a 10% contingency of $14,337, the total construction authorization is $157,707. Funding is available in the Stormwater Management Fund (422). The recommended budget appropriation provides the necessary budget authority to encumber and expend funds for this project. Ongoing operations and maintenance costs will be addressed through Public Works biennial operating budget.

PUBLIC OUTREACH
Staff will continue presenting trash management practices at community events and outreach campaigns.

NEXT STEPS
Upon Council’s approval of this contract, the contract will be executed, and staff will work with the contractor to complete the project. Installations will be complete prior to the December 2026 deadline.

8.1. City of Gilroy

STAFF REPORT
Agenda Item Title: Consideration of a Community Event Support Program Policy Meeting Date: March 16, 2026
From: Matt Morley, City Administrator
Department: Economic Development
Submitted by: Raissa de la Rosa, Economic Development Director Prepared by: Victoria Valencia, Economic Development Manager, Raissa de la Rosa, Economic Development Director
STRATEGIC PLAN GOALS: Ensure Neighborhood Equity from City Services Promote Economic Development Activities

RECOMMENDATION

1. Adopt a resolution establishing a Community Event Support Program Policy formalizing a non-profit subsidy program for community special events; and

2. Authorize staff to implement the FY 2026-27 cycle using the updated timeline, review considerations, and reporting requirements.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The proposed Community Event Support Program Policy outlines the process by which City service costs for nonprofit-organized, free and inclusive community-benefiting events are offset. In consideration of the continued growth of events in size and number, this policy clarifies goals, eligibility, funding considerations, and reporting. The framework strengthens inclusive access to funds and fiscal stewardship, aligns with the City’s budget process, and improves transparency.

For FY2026, Council has allocated $150,000. Based on historical demand and current cost estimates, staff estimates actual City service support needs at approximately $165,000, a $15,000 shortfall which will be absorbed by the Economic Development Department budget. Moving forward, the proposed Policy uses proration as a means to

Page 85 of 156 ends

8.1. manage any gap between the Program budget and application request amounts.

BACKGROUND
The Community Event Support Program (Program) was piloted in 2024 to centralize and track the costs of City service support for community events. On March 3, 2025, Council approved a $150,000 General Fund allocation for Fiscal Years 2026 and 2027 to cover day-of event costs for non-profit organizations hosting events in and around downtown Gilroy, with a requirement to return to Council to formalize the Program.

Staff has compiled actual and anticipated City subsidies for special events that have historically received waivers, the bulk of which are for Police and Public Works services, but may also include other personnel assignments, equipment and vehicle costs, and any pass-through expenses such as radio rentals. The total estimated cost for FY 2026, covering known expenses from events that took place between July and December 2025 and anticipated costs from an additional four events between January and June 2026, is approximately $165,000, exceeding the budgeted allocation by an estimated $15,000.

The FY 2027 Program budget allocation remains consistent at $150,000. Staff will continue to work with organizers to reduce Program subsidy eligible costs by minimizing street closures and adhering to recommendations that minimize other labor and equipment-related impacts.

ANALYSIS
Research
Staff has researched a number of event support programs, including those in surrounding jurisdictions, assessing policies against the City’s interests in enabling a diversity of community-benefitting events, aligning funding with the 2040 General Plan Economic Prosperity Element goals and the City budget cycle, ensuring inclusivity and public accessibility, avoiding prohibited uses, and ensuring standard compliance requirements are met. Staff has also worked with event organizers to understand their needs and to identify streamlining and cost management opportunities.

Overview of the Proposed Program Policy
The result of this work is the proposed Program policy (see “Community Event Support Program Policy” attached to the Resolution), which explicitly defines the goals, eligibility, allowable uses of funds, funding priorities, and review considerations. The policy clarifies that allowable uses of funds are limited to City service costs, such as Police and Fire public safety staffing, Public Works support, and Fire/Hazmat inspection fees, with awards applied directly to those charges rather than issued as cash payments.

Review considerations include alignment with the Economic Prosperity Element of the 2040 General Plan, expected community benefit and inclusivity, operational readiness,

Page 86 of 156 ends

8.1. and the feasibility of public safety and City service needs.

By outlining the factors that influence award decisions and consolidating the Program into a standardized annual process, the revised Program shifts from a first-come, first-served approach with the possibility of exceeding the Program budget to one in which all applications are evaluated and funds are assigned using a consistent and transparent process. Additionally, to better align with the stated goal of ensuring neighborhood equity in City services, the word “downtown” has been removed from the policy, though all funded events to date have and may continue to occur solely in the downtown area.

Award Scaling and Fiscal Responsibility Measures
To responsibly manage the funds, the revised Program recommends a pathway for award proration when needed. If eligible requests exceed the available funds, award amounts will be scaled based on the established criteria, as reviewed by members of the Special Event Review Group, a staff working group with representatives from each City department. Award allocations will ultimately be presented to Council for final approval. Any costs above the amount awarded to an event organizer must be paid by the organizer as billed by the City post-event. This would most likely be public safety or Public Works related, with an estimate of costs provided to the organizer in advance of the event. Staff will encourage scheduling and processes that minimize overtime, and leverage other opportunities to lower costs.

FY2026 Funding Gap Identification and Cost Analysis
Specific to FY2026, assuming no changes to the number and subsidy needs of the current special event roster, an anticipated $15,000 gap between the Council-approved budget allocation and event support demand has been identified. A cost analysis performed by the City's Economic Development and Finance teams gathered day-of personnel costs and informed assumptions for upcoming events within the fiscal year.

These include costs for personnel, equipment/vehicles, and any pass-through/rental expenses incurred by the City specific to the event.

Events to Date and Cost Summary
Twelve events were hosted from July 1, 2025, to December 31, 2026. The total cost incurred was approximately $144,000, 96% of the $150,000 budget. These events included:
6 Downtown Live Music Series
events
$26,096.17 17%
Gilroy Downtown Business
Association Beer Crawl
$8852.85 6%
CARAS Tamal Festival $36,273.67 19%
Gilroy Veterans Day Parade $5275.11 4%
La Ofrenda Festival $28,679.73 19%
IFDES — Our Lady of Fatima $9,861.10 7%

Page 87 of 156 ends

8.1. Procession
Gilroy Downtown Business
Association Holiday Parade
$28,246 24%
Police and Public Works each represented 48% of total costs, with Fire accounting for 2% and Fire Prevention for 1%.

Remaining FY2026 Events and Budget Impact
An additional four events are anticipated to occur in the remainder of this fiscal year, with estimated subsidy-eligible costs totaling $21,000. With $6,000 remaining in the budget, the upcoming events will exceed the allotted Program budget by approximately $15,000. Staff has identified sufficient salary savings within the Economic Development Department budget to cover this overage. The upcoming events for the remainder of FY2026 are:
• Gilroy Downtown Association Wine Stroll
• 2 Downtown Live Music Series events
• IFDES Procession

ALTERNATIVES
Program policies to consider include:
• Set a maximum percentage award cap of total need (e.g. no more than 80% of anticipated costs). This is an across-the-board cap that affects all events regardless of size or type.
• Create event tiers by size or type and adopt per-event not-to-exceed funding caps for applications within each tier. May be useful if the interest is to encourage a certain size or type of event. May be hard to apply if the attendee size is unknown or variable.
• Create a per-organizer cap per fiscal year (e.g. no individual organization can receive more than x% of the total pool of funds). Could penalize organizations like the Gilroy Downtown Business Association.
• Increase the Community Event Support Program budget allocation each budget cycle based on demand.

FISCAL IMPACT/FUNDING SOURCE
City Council approved $150,000 for special event subsidies in FY2026, and an additional $150,000 in FY2027. The current estimated costs for FY2026 exceed the approved $150,000 budget by $15,000. Salary savings within the Economic Development Department have been identified in an adequate amount for the

Page 88 of 156 ends

8.1. Department to absorb this overage, resulting in no negative impact to the General Fund.

Moving forward, the new Program Policy addresses and eliminates the issue of overuse of funds.

PUBLIC OUTREACH
City staff has engaged with the non-profit event organizers and stakeholders over the last year to work through needs and logistics, and identify streamlining and costreducing opportunities.

After adoption of a policy, staff will follow up with known event organizers and stakeholders to confirm changes to the policy and to assist with compliance during this transitional year. The City's event web page will be updated to clearly outline and highlight changes to the Program.

NEXT STEPS
At a future date, staff will update Gilroy City Code Section 13A in reference to this Policy, and to update language related to administration and oversight.

RECOMMENDATION

1. Receive Budget Report for the Second Quarter of Fiscal Year 2025-26 (FY26);

2. Adopt a resolution approving the updated Position Control List for Fiscal Years 2025- 2026 and 2026-2027; and

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
This report provides the City Council with a budget update on FY26 as of the end of the Second Quarter on December 31, 2025, an updated Position Control List for FY26 and FY27, and increases appropriations in FY26 in various funds outlined in the Analysis section.

BACKGROUND
The FY26 budget was adopted on June 2, 2025, as part of the City's biennial budget development process for FY26 and FY27. Activity for FY26 began on July 1, 2025. The City has completed two quarters of operations for FY26, and this report provides a financial summary of such activity as compared to the budget for the period of July 1, 2025, through December 31, 2025. Included with the budget adoption was a resolution

9.1. establishing the Position Control List (PCL) which outlines the various positions and count of full-time equivalent positions authorized for the current budget cycle. The current PCL was last updated in June 2025 and staff are bringing updates to the PCL.

ANALYSIS
General Fund
Revenues
General Fund revenues received through the second quarter of FY26 totaled $25.4 million. This is approximately 34% of the amended budget of $74.3 million. Revenues received up to this point are typically under the 50% fiscal-year mark, especially tax revenues, due to the lag between when the economic transaction occurs and when the City receives those revenues. The table below provides a breakdown of General Fund Revenues by category and a comparison of the actual revenues to the amended budget.

Sales Tax — Sales Tax is the largest source of tax revenue for the General Fund. The City receives its sales tax revenue approximately two months after funds are collected by the California Department of Tax and Fee Administration. The FY26 budget for sales tax revenue is $20.4 million, of which $6.7 million (33%) has been received as of December 31, 2025, which reflects four months' actual sales through October 2025.

Based on the latest quarterly sales tax report, the City’s sales tax revenue for FY26 is expected to come in slightly below budget.

Property Tax — Property tax revenues are received at various intervals from Santa Clara County and are not distributed evenly, as tax payments are typically due in November and April of each fiscal year and remitted in installments. The FY26 budget for property tax revenue is $22.9 million, of which $5.5 million (24%) has been received as of December 31, 2025. Much of the annual property tax revenue is received in the

Page 99 of 156 ends

9.1. second half of the fiscal year, including the annual ERAF payment. At this time, property tax revenue is expected to come in as budgeted.

Utility Users Tax (UUT) — Utility taxes are assessed against the value of energy and telecommunications, such as gas, electricity, steam, cable, and phone charges. The current tax rates are 4.5% for telecommunications and 5% for gas and electricity. The City’s UUT revenues are received one month after the revenues are earned. The FY26 budget for utility user tax is $8.2 million, of which $3.0 million (37%) has been received as of December 31, 2025. The majority of the receipts for UUT to date represent revenue through November 2025. At this time, UUT revenues are expected to come in as budgeted.

Franchise Tax — The City receives franchise tax revenue from three franchise types, including gas and electric, cable TV, and garbage/refuse. The FY26 budget for franchise tax is $2.6 million, of which $0.5 million (18%) has been received as of December 31, 2025, which primarily reflects refuse franchise payments. The larger portion of franchise tax comes from PG&E, which remits payments once a year and is typically received in the fourth quarter of the fiscal year. The cable franchise is remitted on a quarterly basis; thus, the second quarter will be reflected in the FY26 Q3 budget report.

Transient Occupancy Tax (TOT) — The City’s TOT revenue comes from a 9% tax on hotel room rentals under 30 days, as well as from some of the RV parks in the City. The hotels pay within one month after the quarter ends. The FY26 budget for TOT is $1.9 million, of which $0.5 million (20%) has been received as of December 31, 2025, which reflects one quarter, or three months, of receipts. Payments for the second quarter are expected to be received in January and will be reflected in the next quarterly budget report.

Business License — The FY26 budget for Business License fees is $0.8 million, of which $0.2 million (29%) has been received as of December 31, 2025. The business license revenue is tied to the timing of the annual license renewal and any new business licenses issued, and therefore, it can fluctuate throughout the year. For example, gross receipt business renewals are processed on a calendar year basis, and others are renewed on a fiscal year basis.

Other General Fund revenues — This category comprises departmental service charges, general administration charges, fines and forfeitures, and other intergovernmental revenues. The FY26 budget for this aggregate revenue category is $17.5 million, of which $9.0 million (52%) has been received as of December 31, 2025.

At this time, these revenues are expected to come in as budgeted.

Expenditures
General Fund expenditures through the second quarter of FY26 totaled $39.5 million.

Page 100 of 156 ends

9.1. This is approximately 50% of the amended budget of $78.4 million. The table below provides a breakdown by department and function comparing the actual expenditures through the second quarter to the amended budget. Generally, the majority of the departments are within or below their expenditure target through the second quarter of the fiscal year. PD and Fire are tracking slightly higher than the target, primarily in overtime costs. For Fire, overtime is related to the Strike team and is reimbursable. A related budget amendment is included for FY26 as discussed further in this section.

Other General Government is at 60% primarily due to the one-time transfers to the Section 115 Trusts for Pension and OPEB, which were approved by Council in October 2025 as part of the FY25 year-end report.

Non-General Fund
Revenues
The City has approximately 60 non-general funds. The information (revenues and expenditures) for these funds is presented in the table below in aggregate, by fund type, along with a brief description of what is included in these categories.

Non-General Fund revenues received as of December 31, 2025, total $39.5 million.

This is approximately 38% of the amended budget of $104.1 million. Revenues received up to this point are usually under the 50% fiscal-year mark due to the timing of receipts, especially for special revenue and capital/development funds.

Page 101 of 156 ends

9.1. Special Revenues – The primary source of this fund type is intergovernmental funds in the manner of tax sharing or grants from Federal, State, County, and other regional governments. For the City of Gilroy, these Special Revenues provide funding for transportation (Gas Taxes, Vehicle Registration, and Measure B), public safety (Proposition 172 sales tax, Gang Prevention, and regional task forces), and community development (CDBG and housing) among others. The FY26 budget for Special Revenues is $12.0 million, of which $3.3 million (28%) has been received as of December 31, 2025. Many of these revenues are based on quarterly claims submitted by staff; therefore, it is normal for this type of revenue to be received in the next quarter after it was earned.

Recreation – The Recreation Fund receives an annual allocation of $1.5 million from the General Fund, in addition to the revenues it generates from charges for services and grants related to recreation programs. The services provided by Recreation are seasonal, with the majority of activity typically occurring during spring and summer. The FY26 budget for Recreation revenue is $2.4 million, of which $1.2 million (50%) has been received as of December 31, 2025, the majority of which is from the General Fund's transfer.

Capital/Development Impact Funds – Revenues in the Capital and Development Impact Funds are primarily generated by new development approvals and the required contributions to offset infrastructure impacts. Revenue depends on the size and impact of the development and the timing of the project; therefore, revenue is not evenly distributed throughout the fiscal year. The FY26 budget for Capital/Development Funds revenue is $30.1 million, of which $4.5 million (15%) has been received as of December 31, 2025. Of the $30.1 million in revenue budgeted, $15.0 million is for the Bond Proceed budgeted for the Gilroy Ice Center in FY26. The majority of the remaining $7.9 million budget is allocated for development-related fees, $3.9 million for grants and intergovernmental for grant funded projects such as San Ysidro Healthy Living Enhancements. There is one particular fund, the Public Facilities Impact Fee Fund, within this Fund Type, that staff are monitoring closely. The Public Facilities Impact Fee Fund derives its revenues from development-related impact fees. Given the deferment

Page 102 of 156 ends

9.1. of certain private development projects, there is concern that the fund may not generate sufficient revenue in the current fiscal year to cover the planned expenditures, thus requiring some interim stopgap measures to be considered and implemented. While the private development projects have been delayed at the discretion of the project owners, there is no indication that the projects will not materialize. Thus, there will likely be a timing impact. Staff is monitoring and may return to Council with some recommendations as part of future budget update reports.

Debt Service – Debt Service funds receive its revenue from annual property tax levies and/or via interfund transfers from other funds and are typically aligned with the timing of the debt service payment. The FY26 amounts for the second quarter primarily reflect the interfund transfers. The property tax levies for the Library Bond debt service are received similarly to the General Fund property tax distribution, with the majority of it in the second half of the fiscal year. The FY26 budget for Debt Service Funds revenue is $5.1 million, of which $1.6 million (32%) has been received as of December 31, 2025.

Internal Service – Internal Service Funds (Information Technology (IT), Fleet, Facilities, Worker’s Compensation, and Liability Funds) primarily receive their revenue from charges to other departments and funds in the City. These charges are assessed based on the budget, and it is expected that the full budgeted amount will be received.The FY26 budget for Internal Service Funds revenue is $17.2 million, of which $9.6 million (56%) has been received as of December 31, 2025. Revenues within the Fleet Fund are expected to exceed the budget due to surplus vehicle sales authorized earlier in the fiscal year. As of the second quarter, approximately $74,000 has been generated from surplus vehicle sales. In addition, a one-time contribution of $1M was received from the Amazon Data Center project to purchase a fire apparatus, which the Council approved in January 2026.

Sewer – The FY26 budget for Sewer revenue is $19.5 million, of which $9.7 million (50%) has been received as of December 31, 2025. The Sewer Enterprise Fund generates its revenue from utility user charges. At this time, it is expected that the revenue will come in at budget.

Water – The FY26 budget for Water revenue is $17.9 million, of which $9.5 million (53%) has been received as of December 31, 2025. Like the Sewer Fund, the Water Fund generates its revenues from utility user charges. The YTD revenues include a one-time settlement payment related to the PFAS of $0.3 million, which was not budgeted. At this time, it is expected that the revenue will come in at budget.

Expenditures
Non-General Funds expenditures as of December 31, 2025, total $44.5 million, or 30% of the amended budget of $149.5 million. The table below presents the Non-General Fund expenditures by Fund Type.

Page 103 of 156 ends

9.1. Special Revenues – The primary expenditures in this fund type are for maintenance and capital improvements of roads/sidewalks, followed by grant-related expenditures for the Police and Community Development Department for housing and CDBG. As of December 31, 2025, expenditures are at $7.9 million (38%) of the budgeted amount of $20.9 million. Road and infrastructure capital projects typically begin after the winter/rainy season. Therefore, staff expect expenditures to occur in the third and fourth quarters of the fiscal year.

Recreation – As of December 31, 2025, expenditures are at $1.1 million (36%) of the budgeted amount of $3.0 million. The services provided by Recreation are seasonal, typically most active during the spring and summer months. Staff expects funds to be encumbered and expenditures to occur in the third and fourth quarters of the fiscal year.

Capital/Development – As of December 31, 2025, expenditures are at $5.4 million (11%) of the budgeted amount of $47.5 million. The below target spending is primarily in the capital outlay. It is important to note that $18 million of the $47.5 million budget is attributed to the Gilroy Ice Center project. Many of the budgeted projects are still in early phases, such as bidding or design phases, and the subsequent construction phase, the larger expenditure category, is expected to occur later in the fiscal year.

Debt Service – As of December 31, 2025, expenditures are at $2.9 million (60%) of the budgeted amount of $4.9 million. The debt service payments typically include semiannual interest payments and one annual principal payment. These expenses are expected to come in at budgeted levels.

Internal Services — As of December 31, 2025, expenditures are at $8.9 million (40%) of the budgeted amount of $22.2 million. The City’s internal services funds are IT, Fleet, Facilities, Equipment Outlay, Worker's Compensation and Liability Funds. These expenses are expected to come in at budgeted levels. The below target spending is primarily in the capital outlay category for Fleet, Facilities, IT, and Equipment Outlay funds.

Page 104 of 156 ends

9.1. Sewer – As of December 31, 2025, expenditures are at $9.4 million (41%) of the budgeted amount of $22.8 million. Of the $22.8 million budget, $5.5 million is allocated to capital outlay, and the remainder is for operations. Of the $9.4 million in expenditure to date, $1.5 million is related to capital outlay, including the acquisition of the Jessup property for the Utilities Department (split 50/50 between water and wastewater), and the remainder, $7.9 million, is attributed to operations.

Water – As of December 31, 2025, expenditures are at $9.0 million (32%) of the budgeted amount of $28.2 million. Of the $28.2 million, $10.6 million is allocated to capital outlay, and the remainder is for operations. Of the $9.0 million expenditure to date, $2.0 million is related to capital outlay, including the acquisition of the Jessup property for the Utilities Department (split 50/50 between water and wastewater), and the remainder, $7.0 million, is attributed to operations.

Updates to Position Control List
Staff is recommending a few updates to the City's Position Control List, which was approved as part of the current biennial budget adoption in June 2025. • Administration
o Reclassification of the vacant Assistant to the City Administrator to an Assistant City Administrator (ACA) — It is recommended to reclassify the existing position to a higher-level to include significant responsibilities related to policy development, interdepartmental coordination, special project management, and executive-level support to the City Administrator. Over time, the position has expanded beyond traditional administrative coordination to include responsibilities for policy development, interdepartmental coordination, special project management, and executive-level support for the City Administrator and City Council. Establishing this classification will also enhance succession planning, strengthen organizational resilience, and ensure that the City Administrator’s Office has the appropriate management structure to effectively support City Council priorities and the delivery of municipal services. The position is currently vacant and, pending Council approval, will be recruited as Assistant City Administrator. The position's salary will be aligned with the current full-time unrepresented exempt Department Head group and carries a fiscal impact of approximately $64,000, related to salary. Given the lead time to recruitment and filling the position, the fiscal impact and related adjustment is recommended for FY27 only. o Addition of a Management Assistant — It is also recommended to add a Management Assistant position within the City Administrator’s Office to support administrative coordination and operational tasks. Additional administrative capacity is needed to manage scheduling and coordination, meeting preparation, communications, research, and data collection related to financial, operational, programmatic and legislative matters, and other day-to-day administrative functions. It will further allow the CA and

Page 105 of 156 ends

9.1. the new ACA to focus on higher-level policy development, strategic initiatives, and organizational leadership. The position will be a part of the full-time unrepresented confidential non-exempt employees group and carries a fiscal impact of approximately $25,500 in FY26 (three months), and $105,000 in FY27, including salary and benefits.
• Administrative Services
o Reclassification of a Management Assistant to Human Resources & Risk Management Technician I - A recent retirement of a Management Assistant staff member in the Administrative Services provided an opportunity to evaluate the duties performed by the role and make adjustments to better align with operational needs within the Human Resources team, which also oversees Risk Management. As a result, the role has been modified to assist with additional Human Resources and Risk Management duties and was recruited as such. The title on position control needs to be updated to align with the job description and the revised duties. There is no fiscal impact related to this adjustment.

Budget Adjustments
Staff is recommending the following budget adjustments that impact FY26 and FY27:

1. Santa Clara County Planning Collaborative on a commercial nexus study and feasibility analysis — A commercial nexus study will demonstrate the impact of new commercial development on affordable housing needs and identify possible commercial linkage fees that could be used to develop affordable housing. In December 2024, staff joined the Collaborative on a residential nexus study, residential feasibility study, and inclusionary analysis, in addition to the commercial nexus study and feasibility analysis. Conducting these studies as part of the regional collaborative provides financial efficiency and can help promote the equitable distribution of housing opportunities, strategic utilization of resources, and the alleviation of affordable housing challenges throughout the region. The funding for the work was planned for FY25. However, due to delays in formulating the agreements, the funds were not encumbered. An FY26 budget of $59,502 is now required, and it is recommended to be funded by the Los Arroyos Housing Fund (255), which has an adequate fund balance to cover the costs.

2. Overtime Budget for the Fire Department — The Fire Department does not budget for overtime costs and reimbursements related to the Strike Team Deployment since the need for Strike Teams varies from year to year. From July 2025 to October 2025, the Fire Department responded to 9 Strike Team deployments, which increased overtime costs and reimbursement revenue in Fire's FY26 budget. 100% of the overtime cost related to Strike Team deployment is reimbursed by the State. In addition, the state also provides an

Page 106 of 156 ends

9.1. administrative overhead reimbursement. This request is to increase revenue appropriations by $540,245, and increase expenditure appropriations by $500,000 within the Fire Departments Operations budget for FY26, within the General Fund (100).

3. Reserve Fire Engine — The City is in need of a more reliable reserve engine.

The City of Mountain View is preparing to surplus six fire engines and has committed to initially offering them to Santa Clara County Agencies. These units are anticipated to be in better shape than the City’s current reserve fleet. There will be a process for review of the engines and maintenance records which Fleet will take the lead (with support from Gilroy Fire Department). The City's team will need to move quickly once the opportunity is made available. Thus, it is recommended to appropriate $100,000, to allow the City to take advantage of the opportunity, subject to the apparatus meeting the needs of the Fire Department and all paperwork, including maintenance records, being confirmed and in order.

This request is to increase appropriations by $100,0000 within the Fleet Fund (600).

4. Public Safety Vehicle Upfitting — In FY25, the City purchased three Dodge Durango pursuit vehicles, which were delivered in FY26. PD fleet subsequently undergoes an upfitting process to purchase and add communication/technology equipment, safety and security equipment, weapon storage and security, vehicle reinforcement, emergency lights and sirens, and visual identity (decals/wraps) before the vehicles can be deployed into operations. The upfitting budget for these FY25 vehicles was not encumbered in FY25, thus it is necessary to reappropriate the budget in FY26 to complete the upfitting of these vehicles. In addition, the cost of upfitting has increased and will impact the planned upfitting of public safety vehicles budgeted in FY26. This request is to increase FY26 appropriations by $90,000 within the Fleet Fund (600) to fully fund the upfitting.

5. Position Control List Updates — The two position updates within the Administration Department carry a fiscal impact. This request is to increase FY26 appropriations by $25,500 for three months of hiring a Management Assistant, and FY27 appropriations by $169,000 for both positions for the full year, in the General Fund (100). Since these are ongoing adjustments, future years' impacts will be included in future budget developments.

General Fund Forecast Update
The City Council last received the General Fund Forecast update in November 2025, with the FY26 Q1 budget update. The Chart below presents an updated General Fund forecast, which incorporates year-to-date budget amendments approved by the Council for the General Fund through December 31, 2025, and in addition, staff have also incorporated the recommended budget adjustments included as part of this staff report, notably the two position adjustments within the Administration Department, and the overtime related adjustments for the Fire Department's deployment to Strike Team which are reimbursed.

Page 107 of 156 ends

9.1. Overall, there is no significant change to the forecast since the last update. The operating margin in FY26 and FY27 is now projected to be negative by about $0.1 million and $0.6 million, respectively, mainly attributed to the lower sales tax projection.

The last forecast update yielded a positive operating margin for the forecast years of about $0.3 million beginning in FY28 to $1.1 million by FY31, mostly attributed to the lower UAL payments as a result of the FY25 CalPERS returns and the revised drawdown schedule from the Pension trust. That operating margin for forecast years has been adjusted to reflect the two position adjustments with the Administration Department, slightly reducing the positive margins to $0.1 million in FY28 to about $0.9 million in FY31. Overall, General Fund is expected to maintain the minimum required fund balance throughout the forecast.

There are a few items staff are monitoring that will impact the General Fund forecast but are not yet reflected in it. These include:
• Cost of services obtained through the County — The City currently contracts with the County for key services to include emergency medical dispatching (EMD), hazardous waste, weed abatement, crime lab, and other technology-related systems. Over the last few years, the County has updated its internal cost allocation methodology, which has led to significant cost increases for services it provides to various municipalities in the region, including Gilroy. For example, EMD costs will be phased in, increasing from $100,000 in FY26 to $328,000 by FY28. Staff is evaluating potential alternative service delivery models for some of the higher-cost services, but will be financially impacted in the interim. Any related impacts for FY27 or future costs will be included with future budget updates.
• Insurance Premium - The City recently received preliminary estimates for FY27 insurance premiums of $490,000, which is 21% higher than the current year's premium of $406,000. These increases would also affect the forecast years and the General Fund. Similar trends are also expected to follow for the Workers' Compensation insurance program.

Staff will continue to monitor and include any related impacts as part of future budget updates with recommendations.

Page 108 of 156 ends

9.1. ALTERNATIVES
There are no recommended alternatives to receiving the preliminary FY26Q2 budget report. The City Council could approve only select updates to the position control list.

This is not recommended as these updates have been carefully reviewed and recommended based on the needs of the Departments to execute their daily operations, work plan items, and the Council priorities. The City Council could elect to not approve any single, multiple, or all the budget adjustment requests. However, staff does not recommend this option.

FISCAL IMPACT/FUNDING SOURCE
There is no direct fiscal impact from receiving the quarterly budget update. The fiscal impact to the General and other Non-General Fund types is discussed above in the analysis section.

Budget amendments are recommended for two funds, which are summarized in the table below by the recommended adjustment, amount, fund, and fiscal year. A related budget amendment resolution is included and recommended for adoption.

STAFF REPORT
Agenda Item Title: 2025 General Plan and Housing Element Annual Progress Report Meeting Date: March 16, 2026
From: Matt Morley, City Administrator
Department: Community Development
Submitted by: Sharon Goei, Community Development Director Prepared by: Michael Fossati, Planning Manager
Christie Thomas, Housing and Community Services Manager STRATEGIC PLAN GOALS: Promote Safe Affordable Housing for All

RECOMMENDATION
Accept the report and direct staff to submit the 2025 Annual Progress Report to the California Department of Housing and Community Development and the Governor’s Office of Land Use and Climate Innovation, no later than April 1, 2026.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Each year, the City prepares the General Plan Annual Progress Report (APR) in compliance with State law, which requires jurisdictions to document the implementation status of the General Plan and Housing Element, as well as progress toward meeting regional housing needs over an eight-year planning cycle. For 2023-2031, Gilroy’s Regional Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA) is 1,773 units across various affordability levels, based on Santa Clara County’s Area Median Income.

In 2025, the City issued building permits for nine (9) very-low income, nine (9) lowincome, nine (9) moderate-income, and ten (10) above-moderate (market rate) income units, for a total of 37 new residential units. Staff anticipates a significant increase in building permits for new residential units in 2026, as one large-scale multi-family development project is currently under review.

BACKGROUND
The acceptance and submittal of the completed APR satisfies Section 65400 of the California Government Code by documenting each jurisdiction’s progress in

Page 116 of 156 ends

implementing its General Plan and Housing Element programs, as well as progress in meeting its Regional Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA) as determined by the State and the regional Council of Governments, which is the Association of Bay Area Governments (ABAG). The APR must also report the number, type, and location of residential units permitted or demolished during the calendar year that contribute to the regional housing need. The 2025 Annual Progress Report is due to the California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) and the Governor’s Office of Land Use and Climate Innovation (LCI) by April 1, 2026.

What is RHNA? Since 1969, California has required local governments to plan for their communities’ housing needs. The Regional Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA) process determines how many new homes, at various affordability levels, each jurisdiction must plan for in its Housing Element. The current eight-year RHNA cycle is from January 31, 2023, to January 31, 2031.

HCD assesses housing needs using six income categories based on the Area Median Income (AMI) for each metropolitan statistical area. The acutely low-income category was added to the HCD income category levels, with the maximum limit set by HCD as 15 percent of the AMI. The income categories, defined as percentages of the AMI, inform state funding and planning decisions. The categories and their corresponding AMI percentages are as follows:
• Acutely low-income households: 0% - 15% of the AMI
• Extremely low-income households: 16% – 30% of the AMI • Very low-income households: 31% – 50% of the AMI
• Low-income households: 51% – 80% of the AMI
• Moderate-income households: 81% – 120% of the AMI
• Above moderate-income households: above 120% of the AMI In 2025, the Area Median Income (AMI) for a four-person household in Santa Clara County was $195,200, as defined by HCD. Based on the County AMI, the income limits for a family of four (4) within each income category are represented below:
• Acutely low (0 – 15% AMI): up to $29,300
• Extremely low (16 - 30% AMI): up to $60,250
• Very low (31 – 50% AMI): up to $100,450
• Low (51 – 80% AMI): up to $159,550
• Moderate (81 – 120 AMI%): up to $234,250
• Above moderate (>120% AMI): above $234,250
These values align with HCD’s 2025 State Income Limits and HUD-based county tables for a four-person household and correspond to the income categories used in the 6th RHNA cycle (2023-2031).

ANALYSIS
General Plan Implementation Progress – 2025 Calendar Year Each year, the City reports on notable activities that advance General Plan goals and policies. This report highlights the General Plan policies most impacted by City actions last year.

Land Use Element Highlights: Downtown (LU 2.4), New or Amended Specific Plans (LU 2.2), Connectivity (LU 3.2), Neighborhood Infill (LU 3.5), Pedestrian Access (LU

4.9)
In 2025, the City made significant strides in supporting General Plan Land Use polices, such as partnering with California High Speed Rail Authority (CHSRA) and Santa Clara Valley Transportation Authority (VTA) to create the City of Gilroy Station Area Visioning Study, a report that established a vision that will provide the basis for the subsequent station area plan/specific plan, published development concept scenarios that represent the long-term vision for the larger station area, provided illustrations of the overall intent for creating a desirable place that integrates into the surrounding community and downtown Gilroy, with data collection that can be used to amend the existing Gilroy Downtown Specific Plan, by consolidating community engagement, existing conditions, and guiding principles into a vision framework organized around Monterey Street, Tenth Street, Sixth Street, and the Station site, in an effort to promote connectivity, neighborhood infill, and pedestrian access.

Mobility Element Highlights: Reduced Vehicle Miles Traveled (M 1.7), Transportation Demand Management (M 1.12 & M 1.14), Complete Streets (M 2), Pedestrian and Bicyclists (M 3), Transit (M 4), Vehicular Traffic and Parking (M 5) In 2025, the City’s Community Development Department commenced the Gilroy Blue Skies Initiative, which is a community‑driven climate and clean‑air planning effort funded by a Caltrans grant. It is a citywide plan focused on reducing vehicle miles traveled (VMT) and greenhouse gas emissions while improving air quality, transportation, energy efficiency, and resilience. The Blue Skies Initiative will set the foundation to create policies that shift trips to walking, biking, and transit, and improve traffic operations, which directly reduces noise and air pollution.

Economic Prosperity Element Highlight: Regional Partnerships (EP 4.3) In 2025, the City’s Economic Development team welcomed more than 30 economic developers, chamber representatives, and tourism partners from across the Bay Area for the Silicon Valley Economic Development Alliance’s (SVEDA) Summer meeting, the first hosted in Gilroy since 2019. Guests experienced a walking tour of the newly renovated Gourmet Alley, got a first look at the new Meridian Rapid Defense safety barriers used for special events, and participated in timely discussions about regional readiness for major events like the FIFA World Cup and Super Bowl. The gathering highlighted Gilroy’s growing role in regional collaboration and economic innovation, a reflection of our ongoing commitment to making Gilroy a great place to live, work, and play.

Page 118 of 156 ends

Since that time, the City completed the project initiation, existing conditions assessment, needs assessment, and the overall preliminary master plan design. CEQA review will be kicking off in 2026, with potential Master Plan adoption occurring in the summer of 2026.

Parks and Recreation Element Highlight: Parks and Recreation Facility Design (PR 1.22)
In 2025, the Gilroy City Council adopted a two-year Capital Improvement Program allocating $6.4 million for Parks and Trails projects. This includes $1.6 million for new trail construction and nearly $2.0 million for citywide park improvements, including new pickleball courts.

Natural and Cultural Resources Element Highlight: Community-Wide Alternative Fuel Vehicles (NCR 3.8)
In 2025, the City completed the procurement and installation of two (2) solar electric vehicle (EV) chargers near key public services facilities. The chargers were installed in the City’s Corporation Yard. The funding came from a 2024 Climate Program Implementation Grant and also covered the cost of an EV utility truck for the City.

Potential Hazards Element Highlight: Public Education (PH 1.11) In July 2025, the Gilroy Police Department continued supporting community involvement in hazard prevention by sending a group known as the “Police Explorers” to the University of California, San Diego, for the Cadet Academy, which is a week-long, intensive physical and mental training experience.

Environmental Justice Element Highlights: Assess Community Priorities (EJ 1.3), Public Involvement (M 3.10), Community Engagement (PFS 9.5), Translation at Public Meetings (EJ 1.1), Supply Healthy Foods (EJ 2.1) The Environmental Justice Element within Gilroy addresses four specific goals in regard to community needs, which are as follows:

Community Outreach and Inclusion in the Decision Making-Process. To encourage involvement of all Gilroy neighborhoods in the public decision-making process. In 2025, this goal was achieved by launching new tools that help residents connect with City Council and staff on community priorities. GilroyConnect, powered by SeeClickFix, allows all residents to submit service requests, contact staff, and report issues such as graffiti, potholes, code violations, abandoned vehicles, neighborhood park concerns, and dark streetlights.

Page 119 of 156 ends

seniors. The City also shares information on South County Food Distribution resources, including rental, utility, and food assistance programs. The Gilroy Library offers an afterschool snack program for children ages 0 to 18, five days a week. The Gilroy Senior Center provides hot lunches to residents for a nominal donation.

Managing Environmental Concerns. To reduce noise and air pollution impacts in residential areas. As previously stated under Mobility Element Highlights, the City’s Community Development Department commenced the Gilroy Blue Skies Initiative, which is a community‑driven climate and clean‑air planning effort funded by a Caltrans grant. It is a citywide plan focused on reducing vehicle miles traveled and greenhouse gas emissions while improving air quality, transportation, energy efficiency, and resilience. The Blue Skies Initiative will set the foundation to create policies that shift trips to walking, biking, and transit, and improve traffic operations, which directly reduces noise and air pollution.

Job Training and Development. Encourage the growth and development of retail, office, service, and entertainment uses in Gilroy to provide jobs, support City services, and make Gilroy an attractive place to live. The City of Gilroy, in partnership with the Santa Clara County Office of Supportive Housing, awarded a $35,000 Permanent Local Housing Allocation grant to South County Community Services (formerly St. Joseph’s Family Center) for its Streets Team program under Homelessness Case Management.

The City also collaborates with Carry the Vision, a local nonprofit focused on building compassionate communities through various programs and support services. Carry the Vision’s Rooted initiative is a social enterprise that offers clothing and household item reuse and recycling services, while providing paid employment opportunities for individuals facing barriers to employment, including those affected by incarceration or homelessness. In addition, the County of Santa Clara Employment and Social Services Agency has opened a South County location in Gilroy. The agency presented at the Gilroy Unhoused Service Providers Network monthly meeting, hosted by the City’s Housing and Community Services Division, on August 27, 2025.

Additional programs and actions supporting the Environmental Justice Element have been included within the City of Gilroy 2040 General Plan and 2023-2031 Housing Element Annual Progress Report for the 2025 Calendar Year (Attachment 1). 2023-2031 Housing Element Implementation Progress – 2025 Calendar Year Housing Element Program Implementation

2 BACKGROUND
Gilroy 2040 General Plan: Every city and county in California must adopt a General Plan, which serves as the local government’s long-term framework for growth and development.

The General Plan outlines the community’s vision, development goals, and policies, and includes a land use diagram showing planned land uses and development patterns. All land use decisions by City staff, the Planning Commission, and the City Council must align with the adopted General Plan. Typically, a General Plan addresses issues over a 15- to 20-year period. California law requires the General Plan to cover eight elements: circulation, conservation, environmental justice1, housing, land use, noise, open space, and safety.

The Gilroy 2040 General Plan was adopted on November 2, 2020, about 18 years after the City adopted the 2020 General Plan. The 2040 General Plan includes an Introduction chapter, an Implementation chapter, and nine elements: Land Use, Mobility, Economic Prosperity, Housing, Public Facilities and Services, Parks and Recreation, Natural and Cultural Resources, Potential Hazards, and Environmental Justice.

Gilroy 2023-2031 Housing Element: The Housing Element is one of eight required chapters (elements) in the General Plan. State law (Government Code Sections 65580- 65589.8) mandates that every city and county in California adopt a Housing Element approximately every eight years. The California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) reviews and certifies these elements to ensure legal compliance. The City of Gilroy’s 2023–2031 Housing Element sets goals, policies, and programs to encourage diverse housing development, provide adequate sites to meet the 2023–2031 Regional Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA), support housing for lower- and moderateincome households, address and, where appropriate and legally possible, remove governmental barriers to housing, preserve and improve existing affordable housing, and promote equal housing opportunity for all residents. These objectives are required and defined by State law. (California Code Section 65583 [c][1]).

The 2023-2031 Housing Element was adopted by the City of Gilroy City Council on May 1, 2023, in substantial compliance with California State Housing Element Law (Article 10.6 of the Government Code (Gov. Code § 65580 et seq)). On August 21, 2023, the California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) certified the City's 2023-2031 Housing Element.

General Plan and Housing Element Annual Progress Reports: Government Code Sections 65400 and 65700 require all cities and counties to submit an Annual Progress Report (APR) detailing the status and implementation progress of the jurisdiction’s General Plan. State law also stipulates that the APR must describe the community’s progress in implementing its Housing Element. The APR satisfies statutory requirements by reporting specific housing information, including the local agency's progress in meeting its share of regional housing needs (such as applications, entitlements, permits, and certificates of 1 Cities and counties that have identified disadvantaged communities must include an environmental justice element in their general plans.

Page 124 of 156 ends

3 occupancy), relevant rezoning activities, actions taken to complete housing element programs, and local efforts to remove governmental constraints on housing development (Government Codes Sections 65584.3(c) and 65584.5(b)(5)).

The General Plan and Housing Element APR is initially presented to the Gilroy City Council and subsequently submitted to the Governor’s Office of Land Use and Climate Innovation (LCI) and the State Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) by April 1 each year. This report provides a summary of progress achieved during the previous calendar year.
2040 GENERAL PLAN IMPLEMENTATION PROGRESS (2025 Calendar Year) To be effective, the City’s General Plan (GP) must be regularly reviewed, updated as needed, and implemented consistently. The Plan’s Vision Statement and Guiding Principles ensure its goals, policies, and programs reflect Gilroy’s shared community vision. The City enacts the General Plan through ordinances, regulations, policy decisions, and actions, and is responsible for tracking, reporting, and evaluating progress. The APR supports the City’s efforts to achieve the General Plan’s vision.

The General Plan outlines a vision and goals for the community, recognizing that not all objectives will be achieved immediately. The following subsections highlight notable activities in 2025 that advanced the 2040 General Plan programs. The pace and timing of these activities depend on City Council priorities, budget allocations, staff capacity, and departmental workplans. Progress on remaining programs will be reported in future years.

The list below generally excludes ongoing or annual activities, such as daily entitlement permit processing, unless an activity was notable or unique for the year, such as processing an Urban Service Area amendment or annexation.

GENERAL PLAN AMENDMENTS (2025 CALENDAR YEAR)
The City did not approve any General Plan amendments during the 2025 calendar year.

LAND USE
The Land Use Element guides future growth and change while preserving the qualities that make Gilroy a desirable place to live and work. Its goals, policies, and programs aim to strengthen neighborhoods and districts by promoting a balanced mix of uses and amenities that support the local economy, protect environmental resources, and enhance residents’ quality of life. The Land Use Element also includes a map of city land uses and descriptions of each land use designation.

Land Use Element Highlights: Downtown (LU 2.4), New or Amended Specific Plans (LU

2.2), Connectivity (LU 3.2), Neighborhood Infill (LU 3.5), Pedestrian Access (LU 4.9) In 2025, the City made significant strides in supporting General Plan policies, such as partnering with
California High Speed Rail Authority (CHSRA) and Santa Clara Valley Transportation Authority (VTA) to create the City of Gilroy Station Area Visioning Study, a report that

Page 125 of 156 ends

4 established a vision that will provide the basis for the subsequent station area plan/specific plans, development of concept scenarios that represents the long-term vision for the larger station area, illustrations of the overall intent for creating a desirable place that integrates into the surrounding community and downtown Gilroy, with data collection that can be used to amend the existing Gilroy Downtown Specific Plan, by consolidating community engagement, existing conditions, and guiding principles into a “vision framework” organized around Monterey Street, Tenth Street, Sixth Street, and the Station site, in an effort to promote connectivity, neighborhood infill, and pedestrian access.

MOBILITY
The Mobility Element guides decisions on Gilroy’s citywide transportation system. It aims to create a balanced network that supports walking, bicycling, and transit use. Its goals and policies cover multimodal transportation, complete streets, pedestrian facilities, bikeways, public transit, vehicular travel, parking, and goods movement. The Mobility Element aligns with State mandates for complete streets.

ECONOMIC PROSPERITY
Gilroy has a strong agricultural heritage and is known as the garlic capital of the world. The city remains home to major agricultural companies such as Olam, Christopher Ranch, Syngenta, International Paper, and Monterey Gourmet Foods. Its strategic location at the intersection of the Bay Area, Central Coast, and Central Valley supports a diverse industrial base. Gilroy’s extensive retail sector and attractions, including Gilroy Gardens Theme Park and local wineries, drive tourism. The Economic Prosperity Element outlines goals, policies, and programs to strengthen the balance between jobs and the local workforce, support business growth, and attract new industries.

Page 126 of 156 ends

5 events, and participated in timely discussions about regional readiness for major events like the FIFA World Cup and Super Bowl. The gathering highlighted Gilroy’s growing role in regional collaboration and economic innovation, a reflection of our ongoing commitment to making Gilroy a great place to live, work, and play.

PUBLIC FACILITIES AND SERVICES
Gilroy residents, workers, visitors, and businesses depend on public facilities and services provided by the City and partner organizations for safety, utilities, and waste management.

Modern infrastructure, such as fiber-optic internet, supports economic growth. The Public Facilities and Services Element sets goals and policies to guide the delivery of municipal and educational facilities, ensuring services remain efficient and adequate now and in the future.

Public Facilities and Services Element Highlight: Civic Center Expansion (PFS 1.12) In 2025, the City of Gilroy made efficient strides toward the eventual creation and expansion of the Gilroy Civic Center. In late 2024, the Gilroy City Council approved a $750,000 contract to begin the comprehensive planning process for the Civic Center. Since that time, the City completed the project initiation, existing conditions assessment, needs assessment, and the overall preliminary master plan design. CEQA review will be kicking off in 2026, with potential Master Plan adoption occurring in the summer of 2026.

PARKS AND RECREATION
The City offers high-quality facilities and services that support residents’ health and wellbeing. Gilroy residents can walk, bike, hike, play, and learn in the city’s many parks and recreation facilities. Gilroy has received several park design awards from the California Park and Recreation Society, including recognition for Christmas Hill Park, Las Animas Park, San Ysidro Park, and El Roble Park. In 2013, the City of Gilroy Recreation Department received an Award of Excellence for the Christopher High School Aquatic Center, a joint project with the Gilroy Unified School District. The Parks and Recreation Element builds on this tradition and plans for the future of Gilroy’s parks, recreation facilities, and cultural programs.

Parks and Recreation Element Highlight: Parks and Recreation Facility Design (PR

1.22)
In 2025, the Gilroy City Council adopted a two-year Capital Improvement Program allocating $6.4 million for Parks and Trails projects. This includes $1.6 million for new trail construction and nearly $2.0 million for citywide park improvements, including new pickleball courts.

NATURAL AND CULTURAL RESOURCES
Gilroy’s location in the southern Santa Clara Valley, with its surrounding hills, streams, and agricultural lands, contributes to its appeal for residents. The city’s multi-cultural heritage

Page 127 of 156 ends

6 spans centuries. These natural and cultural resources are essential to Gilroy’s vibrancy and prosperity and require protection. The Natural and Cultural Resources Element sets goals, policies, and programs to preserve and enhance Gilroy’s natural areas, habitats, wetlands, streams, scenic views, and historic or culturally significant sites.

POTENTIAL HAZARDS
Gilroy is vulnerable to various natural and manmade disasters due to its location. The Bay Area is highly susceptible to earthquakes. Severe winter and spring storms can trigger landslides and flooding, while dry spring and summer conditions increase wildfire risk.

Manmade hazards, including noise and hazardous materials, also threaten residents’ wellbeing. Although these hazards cannot be entirely avoided, the Potential Hazards Element sets goals, policies, and programs to protect lives and reduce property damage during disasters and emergencies. These measures address regional hazard mitigation, seismic and geologic risks, floods, wildfires, hazardous materials, and noise.

Potential Hazards Element Highlight: Public Education (PH 1.11) In July 2025, the Gilroy Police Department continued supporting the community involvement in hazard prevention by sending a group known as the “Police Explorers” to the University of California, San Diego for the Cadet Academy, which is a week-long, intensive physical and mental training experience.

ENVIRONMENTAL JUSTICE
Environmental justice is “…the fair treatment of people of all races, cultures, and incomes with respect to the development, adoption, implementation, and enforcement of environmental laws, regulations, and policies.” Its objectives focus on reducing health risks in disadvantaged communities by lowering pollution exposure, improving air quality, increasing access to public facilities and healthy food, ensuring safe and sanitary housing, and encouraging physical activity. Additional goals include promoting civic engagement in public decision-making and prioritizing programs that address the needs of disadvantaged communities2.
2 “Disadvantaged communities” refers to the areas throughout California which most suffer from a combination of economic, health, and environmental burdens. These burdens include poverty, high unemployment, air and water pollution, presence of hazardous wastes as well as high incidence of asthma and heart disease.

Page 128 of 156 ends

7 Environmental Justice Element Highlights: Assess Community Priorities (EJ 1.3), Public Involvement (M 3.10), Community Engagement (PFS 9.5), Translation at Public Meetings (EJ 1.1), Supply Healthy Foods (EJ 2.1)
The Environmental Justice Element within Gilroy addresses four specific goals in regard to community needs, which are as follows:

Access to Health Care and Healthy Foods. To improve access to healthy foods, health services, and resources to enhance quality of life. In 2025, the City of Gilroy awarded a $9,502.07 Community Development Block Grant to Loaves and Fishes for the Meals on Wheels program, which delivers daily meals to homebound, low-income seniors. The City also shares information on South County Food Distribution resources, including rental, utility, and food assistance. The Gilroy Library offers an after-school snack program for children ages 0 to 18, five days a week. The Gilroy Senior Center provides hot lunches to residents on a sliding fee scale.

Job Training and Development. Encourage the growth and development of retail, office, service and entertainment uses in Gilroy to provide jobs, support City services, and make Gilroy an attractive place to live. The City of Gilroy, in partnership with the Santa Clara County Office of Supportive Housing, awarded a $35,000 Permanent Local Housing Allocation grant to South County Community Services (formerly St. Joseph’s Family Center) for its Streets Team program under Homelessness Case Management. The City also collaborates with Carry the Vision, a local nonprofit focused on building compassionate communities through various programs and support services. Carry the Vision’s Rooted initiative is a social enterprise that offers clothing and household item reuse and recycling services, while providing paid employment opportunities for individuals facing barriers to employment, including those affected by incarceration or homelessness.

In addition, the County of Santa Clara Employment and Social Services Agency has opened a South County location in Gilroy. The agency presented at the Gilroy Unhoused Service Providers Network monthly meeting, hosted by the City’s Housing and Community Services Division, on August 27, 2025.

Page 129 of 156 ends

8 Several additional programs were implemented and continued to further support policies within the Environmental Justice Element. While many of these programs were not sponsored by the City of Gilroy, our internal teams (i.e. Gilroy City Council members, Community Development, Police Department, and Public Works Department) all play key roles in advancing these environmental justice policies as summarized below:

In 2025, the Mayor continued to host “Coffee with the Mayor” sessions, offering residents a forum to share input on City priorities. Recordings are posted online to ensure all residents can access and engage with the discussions.

In 2025, City staff assumed responsibility for planning and facilitating the monthly South County Collaborative meetings. This group, active for 17 years, brings together communitybased organizations, schools, hospitals, clinics, and public agencies to share resources, provide training, and improve service accessibility for Gilroy residents. Meetings are held at the Gilroy Library, 2nd floor community room, on the third Thursday of each month.

In 2025, City staff partnered with the Santa Clara County Planning Collaborative to distribute a countywide survey on displacement in Gilroy. Displacement occurs when individuals must move due to circumstances beyond their control. A total of 122 Gilroy residents and workers responded. Staff will use these results to inform future anti-displacement strategies and policies. For more information, visit http://www.letstalkhousingscc.org/what-is-displacement/ and http://www.cityofgilroy.org/291/Displacement-Prevention-Efforts.

In May 2025, City staff partnered with Destination Home, Santa Clara County, South County Community Services, and a resident with lived experience to lead a community discussion on housing affordability and homelessness in Gilroy. Both unhoused and housed residents shared experiences and proposed solutions while learning more about this issue. The workshop was presented in English, with Spanish interpretation available. The City also funds South County Community Services Homelessness Case Management and Rental Assistance through Permanent Local Housing Allocation (PLHA) grants.

In May 2025, City staff partnered with Project Sentinel to facilitate a discussion on housing rights, allowing community members to ask questions about their own or others’ housing situations. Meetings were held in English and Spanish, both in person and virtually. The City supports Project Sentinel’s Fair Housing and Tenant/Landlord programs through Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) and Permanent Local Housing Allocation (PLHA) funding.

In September 2025, city staff participated in an educational workshop on homelessness and affordable housing with Destination Home, Santa Clara County, and Nueva Vida Community. The workshop was conducted in Spanish, with interpretation in English, Mixteco, and Chatino. Residents, including San Ysidro community leaders, attended and asked questions about city and county efforts to expand affordable housing and homelessness resources in Gilroy.

Page 130 of 156 ends

9 In 2025, a member of the City Council participated in the Earth Day Resource Fair in San Ysidro Park, which included tree plantings, going green activities, youth workshops and free food and refreshments.

Gilroy will continue to seek collaboration with Community-Based Organizations to address the needs of all Gilroy residents, including underserved and vulnerable groups. 2023-2031 HOUSING ELEMENT IMPLEMENTATION PROGRESS (2025 Calendar Year) Each year, the City is required to submit a report to the State on its implementation of adopted housing programs and Gilroy’s annual progress toward meeting regional housing needs over an eight (8) year planning cycle. In 2025, the City entered its third year of the 2023-2031 Housing Element’s eight (8) year planning cycle. Gilroy’s Regional Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA) for the 2023-2031 planning cycle is 1,773 units over a range of affordability levels, based on Santa Clara County’s area median income.

Housing Element Program Implementation
The Housing Element Annual Progress Report outlines the City’s progress in implementing its adopted Housing Element programs. Each program specifies actions the City will take over the eight-year cycle to address housing needs and comply with State law.

The Gilroy 2023-2031 Housing Element organizes these programs under seven main goals:

Housing Production, Removal of Governmental Constraints, Housing Preservation and Improvement, Housing Assistance, Special Housing Needs, Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing, and Education and Outreach.

The Affirmatively Furthering Fair Housing (AFFH) Chapter within the Gilroy 2023-2031 Housing Element details programs that support fair housing, categorizing actions by fair housing issue. It also summarizes each program’s commitment, timeline, geographic focus, metrics, and AFFH theme.

The attached housing program matrix summarizes the City’s progress toward implementing the programs in the Gilroy 2023 – 2031 Housing Element.

RHNA Progress Report
Since 1969, the State has mandated that all California jurisdictions must plan for our residents’ housing needs—regardless of income. This State mandate is called the Regional Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA). As part of RHNA, the California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) determines the total number of new homes and affordability level of those homes that the Bay Area needs to build. The Association of Bay Area Governments (ABAG) then distributes the region's housing need to each jurisdiction in the region.

As illustrated in the following table, the City’s total RHNA during the 2023-2031 planning cycle is 1,773 units. Only building permits issued for construction during the reported

Page 131 of 156 ends

10 calendar year count toward RHNA. Between January 1, 2025, and December 31, 2025, the City issued building permits for nine (9) very-low income, nine (9) low-income, nine (9) moderate-income, and ten (10) above-moderate (market rate) income units. The remaining RHNA for the 2023-2031 planning cycle is illustrated in the following table. The new State “acutely low-income households” category is a subset of “very low-income households” and is defined as 15 percent or less (0-15%) of the Area Median Income. The “extremely lowincome households” category is a subset of “very low-income households” and is defined as sixteen to thirty percent (16 – 30%) of the Area Median Income. No building permits for acutely low or extremely low-income units were issued during the reporting period.

A – 6
ADU Tracking
and Monitoring
The City will track the number and location of building permits issued for ADUs. If the 3-year average is less than 25 units in 2025, the City will hold a focus group with local stakeholders and update the ADU strategy by the end of 2026, with the intent of increasing production. If necessary, the City will identify additional RHNA sites in No Net Loss Inventory.

Quantified Objective: Increase the number of new ADUs permitted in the City from an average of approximately 15.75 (2018-2021) to an average of approximately 25.

Geographic Targeting: 30 percent of annual ADU production in high resource areas, RCAAs, and areas with relatively higher income.

A – 8
Financial
Incentives for
Affordable ADUs
Upon securing funding, the City will develop a financial assistance program for homeowners who build ADUs with an affordability restriction or commitment to offering housing choice vouchers. The City will utilize in-lieu fees to facilitate development of ADUs affordable to lower-income households in high-resource areas of the City. If ADU production is lower than anticipated, the City will evaluate reducing ADU impact fees as a potential incentive for affordable housing.

Geographic Targeting: 30 percent of annual ADU production in high resource areas, RCAAs, and areas with relatively higher income.

After program funding is secured and
sufficient for the intended purpose.

Evaluate the effect of impact fees on ADU
development by Q4 end of 2026 if ADU
production is lower than anticipated in
year 2025
In Progress - The City has joined the Santa Clara County Office of Supportive Housing BMR Partnership Program, which has an ADU and JADU loan component. The program will allow borrowers to use the funding to purchase a home with an ADU or JADU, to construct a new ADU or JADU, or to repair, reconstruct, or rehabilitate an existing ADU or JADU, which may include converting existing space to add to an ADU or JADU. City staff will promote the County program in high resource areas in Gilroy. The County hopes to have funding for the ADU portion of the partnership during FY 2026. In 2023 and 2024, the City promoted the CalHFA Accessory Dwelling Unit grant program, which has since run out of funding. In 2023-2025, the average number of ADU permits issued per year was 36, exceeding the City goal of 25 permits annually. The Grand Nexus study will include an in-lieu fee component.

A – 9
Monitor Permit
Requirements,
Processing
Procedures, and
Land Use
Controls
Implement the Land Management System in 2023, hold an outreach meeting to educate users on how to use the new permitting system, survey users six months after its launch to assess the effectiveness of the new system, create metrics that track the time to process permits, and engage with developers, builders and other stakeholders to identify potential constraints in the City’s permit requirements, processes, procedures, and land use controls. Analyze potential streamlining where feasible.

Quantified Objective: Increase the percentage of permits that are processed online. Decrease the time it takes to process permits.

Survey six months after “go-live” date.

Annual outreach to builders and
developers, such as through the City’s
annual developer’s roundtable meetings.

Continuous - The “GO Permit” Land Management System was launched in June 2023. In addition to helping customers in person, over the phone, and via email, the City created manuals to educate users on how to use the new permitting system. City staff continually receives feedback from customers on the efficiency of the system and has implemented improvements based on that feedback. Since launching the GO Permit system and online portal in June 2023, all permits and submittals are processed online and electronically. The City also generates reports that track permit issuance. In 2025, the City held a Developer Roundtable and separately the Building Division held a Developer Roundtable, at which both discussed the new Land Management System. While the number of permits applied for in 2025 decreased, this reflects the economics of development rather than the use or availability of an online portal. Key economic factors driving the slowdown include higher interest rates and tighter lending standards (raising developer financing costs and lowering feasible project returns), elevated construction and labor costs, and volatile material prices.

A – 10
Facilitate
Missing Middle /
Middle Income
Housing
Amend the City Code to allow triplexes, and fourplexes to be approved ministerially on corner lots with a minimum 8,000 sf lot size in the R1 and R2 zones so long as the project complies with objective design standards and the lot was created prior to May 1, 2023. Create informational pamphlets and update the City’s SB 9 policy and website to reflect the changes allowed under this program.

Quantified Objective: Increased production and reduced permitting time and cost for triplexes and fourplexes. Facilitate construction of 100 missing middle (duplex, triplex, quadplex) housing units over the 6th Cycle planning period (approximately 10 percent of qualifying lots).

By end of 2024 calendar year.

Completed and Continuous - A Zoning Amendment implementing this program was adopted on June 3, 2024, Ordinance No. 2024-01. City staff members have been part of the Santa Clara County Planning Collaborative Missing Middle workgroup where cities have come together to share information and learn about opportunities for missing middle housing and to learn about the economics of missing middle housing. The City currently has two projects in the pipeline including a townhome development and an apartment complex, that may be an option for housing for middle income households. Accessory Dwelling Units are also a viable option for missing middle income households. Gilroy has permitted an average of 36 ADUs per year between 2023-2025. The Housing Trust Silicon Valley has a program for first time homebuyers called the "Homebuyer Empowerment Loan Program" (HELP) that missing middle income households can qualify for - links to this program can be found on the City’s Housing and Community Services "Homebuyer Assistance" webpage. The City recently prepared a list of all corners lots in R1 and R2 zones that are greater than 8,000 sq ft with single family homes that could be eligible for SB 9. Information is being mailed to the homeowners at each lot to make them aware of the opportunity. Additional information about these sites can be found on the City Senate Bill 9 webpage.

A – 11 Inclusionary
Housing Policy
Conduct an inclusionary housing feasibility study and reference the City’s existing Neighborhood District Policy and former RDO Exemption Policy as a benchmark for developing an affordable housing policy. The policy will include inclusionary requirements, such as resale controls, minimum term, minimum percentage of units that must be restricted as affordable, minimum percentage within each affordability category, and alternative compliance such as an in-lieu fee for projects below the feasible threshold for requiring built units. The inclusionary housing ordinance will include a requirement that the developer market the below market-rate units and accessible/adaptable units.

Quantified Objective: Increased production of affordable housing within the City, including housing choice and mobility for lower-income households. Prioritize use of in-lieu fees to develop affordable housing options in higher resource areas of the City.

By end of 2024 calendar year.
