Item
#4 CONS 22‐610
Adopt a Resolution Approving Plans and Specifications, and Calling for Bids for the Municipal Parking Lots No. 8 Improvement Project No. 05740 Would
you please clarify why parking lot 8 is a separate bid from the other parking lot improvements on the agenda?
Muni P
arking Lots No. 7, D‐1 & D‐2 will require mill and overlay and micro surfacing pavement treatments. Muni Parking Lot No. 8 is much larger and will require different pavement treatments such as hot mix asphalt over milled asphalt and cement concrete along with curb and sidewalk construction. Staff felt that the City would get better costs by eliminating sub contractors’ add‐on and mobilization cost.

Informational Report Describing the Appointment and/or Special Election Process for City Council Vacancy Question:
Do you actually anticipate an election in the off year? Ac cording to the Alameda County Registrar of Votes (ROV), acceptable possible election dates are March 7, 2023, and November 7, 2023. Acceptable possible mail election dates are May 2, 2023 and August 9, 2023. The March 7, 2023 election is not feasible because the deadline to file a resolution with the ROV is December 9.
The May 2 election might be a better option as the deadline to file a resolution with the ROV is February 3. The December 13 staff report will have this information along with an estimated election cost.

Hi Christina and Jeremy,
I emailed comments for the October 18, 2022 Council Meeting which contained 2 questions relating to the
last 8 years
- the time span for the current Housing Element.
a. What is the percentage and number of units of inclusionary affordable housing built or approved in Hayward?
b. Over this 8-year time period how many affordable inclusionary owner-occupied units
(not rental) have been built or approved in the following income categories: very low/low/moderate? How many affordable
inclusionary rental units?
I believe this information will be helpful in establishing a base for the revision of the AFO next year. Please let me know when staff will be providing this information. Thank you.
Cordially,
Ro Aguilar

Attn: Hayward City Council and Staff
RE: Agenda Item 8 – EBCE Support for All-Electric Reach Codes East Bay Community Energy (EBCE) expresses our strong support for the proposed all- electric reach codes for the City of Hayward that will be considered by the Council on November 1st. The development of these codes was a collaborative effort between our municipal partners and will ultimately result in greener, healthier, and more cost-effective buildings for our customers.
EBCE is a community choice aggregator (CCA) serving over 642,000 customers across the County of Alameda, including each of the following cities: Albany, Berkeley, Dublin, Emeryville, Fremont, Hayward, Livermore, Newark, Oakland, Piedmont, Pleasanton, San Leandro, Tracy, and Union City. The City of Stockton recently joined in September 2022.
EBCE has a goal of procuring 100% carbon-free energy by 2030 by providing carbon-free electricity at competitive rates to customers. Because member cities within EBCE territory are already being served by carbon-free sources, all-electric reach codes are a necessary step for Hayward to gain maximum utilization of this clean electricity.
The CCAs serving Alameda, Santa Clara, and San Mateo counties have teamed together to provide a set of model codes and cost effectiveness analyses for reach code development.
The intent of the collaboration is to provide a streamlined set of local amendments that simplify the adoption and implementation process for city staff and set general expectations for the building industry. To date, more than 50 jurisdictions across California have adopted electrification reach codes and dozens of jurisdictions are re-adopting more stringent versions of their reach codes this Fall.
Given the momentum across the state, it is critical that the City of Hayward adopt all-electric reach codes to meet its clean energy goals and provide a strong signal to industry for all- electric construction and widespread access to EV charging infrastructure. If adopted, Hayward will be at the forefront of driving electrification beyond current electric and solar/storage readiness measures required by state code for residential and non-residential buildings. Additionally, the EV charging model reach code goes beyond state code by ensuring 100% access in multifamily buildings – a key equity measure – and broader availability of workplace charging.
ebce.org
As cities and counties choose to adopt all-electric reach codes, they will also see many health and cost benefits. All-electric buildings are considerably healthier for occupants since gas produces harmful air pollution that has been tied to exacerbating respiratory conditions.
Additionally, all-electric buildings are safer for residents as gas is the leading cause of fires and carbon monoxide. Lastly, all-electric buildings (predominantly single-family buildings) typically cost less to build and operate. Building all-electric also protects communities from rising gas prices as the gas system is pruned.
We thank the Council for their time and resources devoted to this effort, and we urge you to approve the all-electric reach codes.
Sincerely,
JP Ross, VP of Local Development, Electrification, and Innovation
