himself from participating in the Special Events funding recommendations.
Community Services Manager Lobedan provided an overview of the first segment of the work s ession which included FY 2024 Ann ual Action Plan an d the FY 2024 Community Agency funding recommendation s in the categories of Economic Development and Infrastructure (CDBG source), Public Services (CDBG source), Social Services (General Fund source), and Arts and Music (General Fund source).
Mayor Salinas opened the public comment period at 7:26 p.m.
Ms. TJ, Hayward Concerned Citizens member, noted the funding recommendation of $150,000 being allocated to Rebuilding Together Oakland and asked how the agency was related to Hayward.
Mayor Salinas closed the public comment period at 7:27 p.m.
In response to Council Member Syrop’s request that staff address TJ ’s question, Community Services Manager Lobedan responded that while the administrative office s of Rebuilding Together Oakland was located in Oakland, the agency serves forty Hayward households annually with home repair services. In response to Council Member Syrop’s inquiry about South Hayward Parish : Case Management Services project, Community Se rvices Manager Lobedan noted t he project was not fund ed because South Hayward Parish had su bmitted multiple applications and projects needed to be prioritized and staff was in communications with the agency to help determine other funding sources.
In response to Council Member Syrop’s inquiry for the decrease in funding recommendation for Community Resources for Indepen dent Living (CRIL) from $20,000 last year to the recommended $15,645 for current year, Community Services Manager Lobedan responded it was mainly due to competition in funding , increase in community need and funding availability.
Council Member Zermeño noted South Hayward Parish was doing a good job in serving South Hayward residents, and wondered if the funding recommendation could be reconsidered. In response to Council Member Zermeño’s inquiry for the reason why St. Rose Hospital was not recommended to rec eive funds, Community Services Manager Lobedan responded the Community Services Commission (CSC) recommended the organization spend down current funding before allocating additional funds this year.
In response to Council Member Roche’s inquiry about the reasoning for the recommendation for Spectrum Community Services: Meal Program for Seniors, noting they had requested $50,000 but were recommended to receive $33,000, Community Services Manager Lobedan noted it was mainly due to funding availability. In resp onse to Council Member Roche’s 8 | A p r i l 11 , 202 3
inquiry about CRIL’s current need related to services through the Annual Paratransit Program Plan, Community Services Manager Lobedan noted the Community Agency funding was a separate source than funding through the Para transit Program . Council Member Roche emphasized that the goal was to keep working with CRIL.
In response to Council Member Andrews’ inquiry about Love Never Fails’ funding request and opportunities for securing additional funding for larger efforts, Community Services Manager Lobedan noted the allocation through Community Agency funding was limited and staff would incorporate suggestions for the agency around capital campaign fundraising.
Council Member Syrop commented he did not see the Alameda County Food Bank agency in the Community Agency funding recommendations report and inquired about CSC’s thoughts about services that provide food security. Community Services Manager Lobedan shared the Alameda County Community Food Bank agency told the City they would not apply for funds this year, and staff would confirm that the agency would continue to provide services to the Hayward community. CSC Vice Chair Bruckner noted the same question was raised during CSC deliberations.
In response to Council Member Syrop’s inquiry about Eden Information and Referral (EI&R) 2-1-1 service, Community Service s Manager Lobedan indicated that CSC and C ity staff recommended to leave the competitive pool of funds as is and separately include $50,000 in the budget process to support EI&R beginning FY 2025, and staff would verify if the contract included an outreach and marketing campaign. CSC Vice Chair Bruckner noted CSC supported the recommendation.
Council Member Goldstein shared that he was the Council Liaison to the CSC, expressed his appreciation for the great work CSC members do with a thoughtful and considerate approach to how they achieve balanced funding.
In response to Council Member Roche’s question about Spectrum Community Services’ funding, CSC Vice Chair Bruckner noted CSC discussed the funding and staff had a ddressed deliberations and funding allocations.
Mayor Salin as commented on Council Mem ber Syrop’s question about food security in Hayward noting there were organizations that distributed food such as through the Hayward Promise Neighborhood- Fresh Food for Families program and Tiburcío Vásquez Center; and closed the first segment of the work session.
Council Member Zermeño recused himself from discussion of the second segment and left the Council Chambers at 7:42 p.m.

at 7:46 p.m.
In response to Council Member Roche’s inquiry for the reasoning of why the Cinco de Mayo Festival was not considered a classic festival, Community Services Manager Lobedan noted the allocation was based on the total budget size and the requirement that no event should receive funding in excess of 20 percent of the event budget. In response to the inquiry about distribution of remaining funds, Ms. Lobedan noted staff plans to notify all applicants in the Special Events category, including the Cinco de Mayo Festival organizers, of the availability of one-time funds in the amount of $3,000 which will be distributed on a first-come, first-serve basis.
Council Member Andrews was pleased with the clarification that Russell City Blues’ request was included under the Special Events category; and asked if there was a formalized intake process for the use of City facilities for special events. Community Services Manager Lobedan responded that staff from different divisions were working on this. Council Member Andrews encouraged staff to have a fair process in place for everyone and for Library and City facilities to coordinate accordingly to mitigate any conflict.
Members of the City Council thanked and acknowledged City staff and Community Services Commissioners for their work on the funding recommendations.

LEGISLATIVE BUSINESS
Prior to proceeding to the Legislative Business item, Mayor Salinas stated that on February 8, 2023, Alameda County Supervisor of District 2, Richard Valle, tragically passed away, which caused the Alameda County Board of Supervisors to launch a process to fill the vacated seat and announced that the individual appointed was former Council Member Márquez. As Alameda County Supervisor Márquez was in the audience, Mayor Salinas read a Certificate of Commendation presented to Elisa Márquez in honor of her commitment and dedication to the community of Hayward; and, on behalf of the City Council, congratulated the outgoing Council Member and incoming Coun ty Supervisor Elisa Márquez for her service and legacy of contributions that will continue to make Hayward a better place.

Staff report submitted by Public W orks Director Ameri, dated April 11, 2023, was filed.

Wilfong added there was potentially cost inferred if a property is asked or required to install a full trash capture device, mentioned there would be a cost for the device depending on its size and its maintenance noting that cleaning may be done by the p roperty ow ner or by a company providing the service, and emphasized that the installation of the device was not a requirement if the property was able to contain the trash on the property and stay in compliance with the 100% reduction mandate.
In response to Council Member Zermeño’s inquiry about the number of restaurants or businesses that have or are in need of trash capture devic es, Administrator Wilfong responded that there were a fair amount of private property owners, including commercial and some large residential developments, that have full capture devices, noted there were approximately 400 to 500 businesses in the inve ntory that need to be addres sed as their drainage was not allowing the City to treat them downstream, and noted it was difficult to gauge how many properties may require a de vice until an inv entory is created and assessment performed.
Council Member Zermeño thanked staff for the response, noted that there were approximately 9,000 businesses in Ha yward and indicated it would be interesting to know how many of these have trash capture devices.
There being no public comment, Mayor Salinas opened and closed the public hearing at 8:42 p.m.
Council Mem ber Roche shared she heard the staff report as s he served on the Council Sustainability Committee; commented that s ince Hayward has to achieve 100% trash reduction by July 2025, businesses will have to partner with the City in this effort, and hoped the City could wor k with businesses on bearing costs; and supported the pr oposed amendments demanding that everyone do their part to keep trash out of the stormwater.
It was moved by Council Member Goldstein, seconded by Council Member Syrop, and carried by the followi ng roll call vote, to adopt the resolution and approve the introduction of the ordinance.

Staff report submitted by Public Works Director Ameri, dated April 11, 2023, was filed.
Mayor Salinas announced the report, stated members of the Council had reviewed the staff report, requested to forego staff’s presentation, and move to Council questions.
In response to Council Member Roche’s inquiry if the two properties would take over the street corner and if the street portion would remain a public right-of-way, City staff noted the property owner would be responsibl e for maintaining the enti re parc el and the site would remain a public right-of-way.
Council Member Syrop shared that in looking at the map, it appeared there was no sidewalk that curved around the street, and asked if this would be converted into a si dewalk. Senior Civil Engineer Sharma responded that would not be accomplished as part of Council’s action; and added that the arrangement was once the adjacent property is acquired and lots are merged, there may be a plan to develop the combined lot with an additional home or expand the e xisting use, and the addition of a sidewalk would be a requirement of th e lot development.
Mayor Salinas opened the public hearing at 8:47 p.m.
Ms. Joan Butler, C Street resident, wanted to know what will happen after the street is vacated and how long would it take for next steps, expressed concern the area is used by individuals to dump trash and mattresses, and supported the addition of a sidewalk on 4th Street.
Mayor Salinas closed the public hearing at 8:50 p.m.
Mayor Salinas asked staff to address the question posed by Ms. Butler. Public Works Director Ameri indicated that once the street right-of-way is vacated and the property transferred to the adjoining property owner, the new property owner will be responsible for maintaining the parcel and noncompliance of property maintenance will be handled by Co de Enforcement; and anticipated the development of the property would create fencing and frontage improvements.

Mayor Sa linas gave Ms. Butler an other opportunity t o address the Council. Ms. Butl er wondered if she could have, for h istorical purposes, the old sign that indicates Valley and C Street. Mayor Salinas indicated the City Manager’s office would work with Ms. Butler.
Council Member Syrop echoed the desire for the new development to be pedestrian friendly and hoped for this during City negotiations, shared that he lived near the area and wanted to ensure the area was walkable, rollable, accessible to community members , and help set a standard for walkability along 4th Street as there was a need for sidewalks.
In response to Council Member Syrop ’s inquiry for the timeframe Code En forcement would address any potential non-compliance issues in the vacated lot, Public Works Director Ameri indicated that as soon as the property is transferred, th e o wner would be responsible for maintaining th e portion of the property , and noted that when a situation arises, Code Enforcement would issue a notice to the p roperty owner and if ignored, then the City could take further steps to bring the property into compliance.
Council Member Syrop offered a motion to move the item.
Council Member Zermeño noted there was an evident problem with litter in the area when he used to visit former residents; was glad the adjacent property owner would be taking over the proposed site; urged that Code Enforcement inspect the site to ensure that it is fenced, kept in good shape or a sidewalk is installed; and seconded the motion.
Regarding the Valley and 4 th Street sign, City Attorney Lawson requested that it not be included as a friendly amendment to the motion but addressed offline.
It was moved by Council Member Syrop, seconded by Council Member Zermeño, and carried by the following roll call vote, to approve the resolution.

Council Member Syrop thanked Mr. Altschu l for the presentation and the continued support of Hayward Airport and asked if the item went before the Planning Commission.
City Manager McAdoo responded the project did not require discretionary review by the Planning Commission and only requ ired a building permit review, and added the project had been in the works for several years.
Council Member Syrop commented that since the project was over $1 million and due to there being a Community Workforce Agreement in place, asked if there were conversations with trade unions about th e proposed project . City Manager McAdoo indicated that the proposed project was exempt as the Community Workforce Agreement applied to City projects and the propos al was a private project. Mr. Altschul noted the project was small and added that his c ompany employed a Hayward resident as well as two San Lorenzo residents.
There being no public comment, Mayor Salinas opened and closed the public hearing at 9:05 p.m.

SUBJECT: Adopt a Resolution Rejecting all Bids, Approving Revised Plans and Specifications, and Calling for Bids for the Cesar Chavez Safe Routes to Schools Improvements Project, Project No. 05319
RECOMMENDATION
That Council adopts a resolution (Attachment II) rejecting all bids for the Cesar Chavez Safe Routes to Schools Improvements Project (SR2S), approving the revised plans and specifications, and calling for bids to be received on May 9, 2023.
SUMMARY
On January 24, 20231, Council approved the plans, specifications and call for bids for the SR2S Project. The SR2S Program, funded by Alameda County Transportation Commission (ACTC), supports safe access and mobility to and from schools by funding sustainable transportation improvement for pedestrians, cyclists, and transit riders. In FY22, the City was successful in obtaining the SR2S Mini-Grant to fund improvements for Cesar Chavez Middle School (CCMS), including installation of paint and post curb extensions, yellow high- visibility crosswalks and signage among other enhancements. One bid was received for this project. After reviewing the bid proposal, staff deemed the bid unresponsive and is requesting Council reject the sole unresponsive bidder, approve the revised plans, specifications, and call for construction bids to be received on May 9, 2023.
BACKGROUND
The California Department of Transportation made funding available for capital projects through the SR2S Program. This state legislated program has been active since 2000 and came into effect from the passage of an Assembly Bill and was subsequently extended. In February 2021, ACTC announced a funding opportunity to all cities and unincorporated areas in Alameda County for the SR2S Mini-Grant Program. The Program provided $1.7 million in Measure B – Local Transportation funds and Congestion Management Agency
1 CITY OF HAYWARD - File #: CONS 23-033 (legistar.com)
Transportation Improvement Program funds. In July 2021, ACTC awarded the City $162,000 for improvements at CCMS. On September 28, 20212, Council adopted Resolution No. 21-188 authorizing the City Manager to accept the grant funds and appropriate a total budget of $324,000 for the SR2S Program.
DISCUSSION
The State SR2S project selects projects that are developed with community participation in order to make walking and bicycling to school a more appealing mode of transportation and also improving the overall quality of life and maintaining a sustainable environment.
CCMS is located near the South Hayward BART Station and borders an active railroad track.
A six-foot tall chain-link fence separates the school from Tennyson Road and the railroad corridor. The only pedestrian and vehicle access to the school is located on Whitman Street.
CCMS has a high proportion of students walking to and from school. Since walking is one of the simplest, most effective, and affordable strategies for kids and adults to include physical activity daily, this project aims to make it safer for all pedestrians and bicyclists to walk and bike to school. This project also provides equitable improvements to South Hayward, an area that has historically been underserved.
Safety improvement recommendations include installation of yellow high-visibility crosswalks, paint and post curb extensions, advanced stop and yield marketing, median extension and signage. These recommended improvements were developed after the County of Alameda’s SR2S Team completed a School Safety Assessment (SSA) at the school in February 2018. The Team was comprised of staff from the City, ACTC, Hayward Unified School District (HUSD), CCMS, and parents of students attending schools in HUSD.
Council approved the plans and specifications and call for bids on January 24, 2023. At that time, Council members provided comments to revise the project plans to include a dedicated bike lane at the intersection of Whitman Street and Tennyson Road. Staff discussed these comments with the project consultant engineer and prepared revised bid documents as per Council’s feedback. After incorporating the design changes, the project was advertised for bidding. The bid opening for this project was on March 7, 2023 and one bid was received. The Engineer’s estimate for this project was $213,100. The bid received from Central Pacific Engineering, Inc. (Central Pacific), was $309,506, which is 45% higher than the engineer’s estimate.
Staff reviewed the bid and found the bid amounts for several bid items were not in the typically acceptable range. Because only one bid was received, the Public Contract Code allows for direct negotiations with the contractor. Staff met with the contractor to negotiate bid items that staff considered were not in line with the current industry range and requested a revised bid. Central Pacific submitted a revised bid on March 15, 2023. The revised bid is still considered unresponsive and is 44% higher than the engineer’s estimate.
2 CITY OF HAYWARD - File #: CONS 21-482 (legistar.com)
Because staff considers the revised bid also unresponsive, staff is requesting Council reject the bid.
The plans and specifications have been revised to better reflect the project needs and Staff seeks Council’s approval of the revised plans, specifications, and call for bids to be received by May 9, 2023.
ECONOMIC IMPACT
This item supports the mobility goals established in the City’s 2040 General Plan, providing a balanced multi-modal system of transportation facilities and services throughout the City.
The alternative modes of travel, namely walking and biking, will reduce congestion, greenhouse gas emissions, and costs related to single-lane occupancy vehicles. The overall transportation system will be more efficient and pedestrian and bicycle friendly, creating positive economic and health benefits.
FISCAL IMPACT
The SR2S Project has a total appropriated budget of $324,000 in the FY 2023 Adopted CIP Budget. The project is partially funded through an ACTC grant, which will reimburse up to fifty percent of the estimated construction cost (not-to-exceed $162,000). The project budget is outlined below. This item has no impact on the General Fund.
Measure BB – Local Transportation (Fund 212) $324,000
Includes ACTC SR2S $162,000 Mini-Grant
STRATEGIC ROADMAP
This item supports Council’s strategic priority of Invest in Infrastructure. Specifically, this item relates to the implementation of the following project(s):
Project N8(d): Implement Safe Routes to School
SUSTAINABILITY FEATURES
This item has no direct sustainability features.
PUBLIC CONTACT
Staff has been in contact with ACTC and the public regarding this item. In February 2018, the SR2S Team completed the SSA. The City conducted a public survey in early 2022 to gather community input. In March 2022, staff presented the project and recommended improvements at a community meeting.
NEXT STEPS
If Council approves this request, staff will republicize the project and collect bids on May 9, 2023. Staff will return to Council for award of the construction contract after bids have been received and reviewed. The following schedule has been developed for this project:
Receive Bids May 9, 2023
Award Construction Contract June 2023
Complete Construction August 2023

BACKGROUND
The Hayward Police Department has identified a comprehensive fingerprint imaging system for the detection, capture, and enhancement of almost any type of fingerprint on any surface or background to ensure that maximum detail is revealed. The DCS®5 Fingerprint Imaging Workstation is a one-of-a-kind product, sold only by Foster + Freeman, a company at the forefront of forensic science technology. Use of this product will greatly improve the Crime Scene Technician (CST) Unit’s detection and capturing capabilities, which will help obtain higher quality latent print images for the Latent Print Examiner.
DISCUSSION
Foster + Freeman is an international company dedicated to improving the quality of forensic evidence, through the designing and manufacturing of innovative products and technologies used for the detection and examination of criminal evidence. One of the innovative products
they sell, which no other competitive companies sell, is the DCS®5 Fingerprint Imaging Workstation.
The DCS®5 Fingerprint Imaging Workstation includes the camera, computer, monitor, software, multiple alternate light source options, and a built-in Image Validation/Audit Trail that will record all steps taken that led to the final image. An integral part of the DCS®5 is the easy-to-use software that provides sophisticated image capturing and enhancement tools to uncover hidden detail within images, such as by removing surface texture or difficult backgrounds. This makes capturing visible, fluorescence, infrared, and reflective ultraviolet detected prints easy to capture, enhance, and record.
Another component of the DCS®5’s hardware is the Cylindrical Surface Unwrapper, which enables 2D images of fingermarks to be extracted from narrow cylindrical items including bullets, casings, pens, batteries, glass vials, bottles, syringes, hand tools, and other similarly shaped objects. These hardware and software options will give the CSTs more capabilities in locating and capturing latent prints, which the CST Unit currently does not have.
The CST Unit is currently using the EOS Canon imaging program that comes standard with Canon cameras. With this equipment, the CSTs rely on a separate alternate light source and camera filter to capture latent prints on the EOS imaging program. The EOS imaging program offers no latent print specific enhancements or any of the components stated above.
For the Latent Print Examiner, successful latent print examinations require comparable quality latent prints. The ability to see ridge detail and characteristics in impressions is crucial to identifying the source of a print. When impressions are of poor quality or hidden by surface interference, the possibility of a “no value,” a lesser degree of association, or inconclusive result is likely. This complexity also leads to more time spent on the capturing and examination process.
With the technology of the DCS®5 Fingerprint Imaging Workstation , the ability to enhance and capture latent impressions on evidence is increased, leading to a more efficient and successful examination process for the Latent Print Examiner, which leads to more cases being solved. The types of evidence this system will be used for (e.g., weapons, casings, paper, etc) are often from crimes against persons. A higher success rate in capturing images from these types of surfaces will result due to this technology.
FISCAL IMPACT
The total cost to purchase the DCS®5 Fingerprint Imaging Workstation is $185,177.56. To offset some of the cost to the City, the Hayward Police Department applied for and was awarded the Edward Byrne Memorial Justice Assistance Grant in the amount of $73,662.03.
In addition to using these grant funds, $111,515,53 will be used from the Police Department’s FY 23 CIP funds for this purchase.
It should be noted that HPD secured 2022 pricing until May 22, 2023. After this date, the product pricing will include the manufacture price increase of $14,172 for a total cost of
$199,350 for 2023. Staff recommends expediting the purchasing of the DCS®5 Imaging Workstation prior to this date to avoid the 2023 pricing increase. Staff is requesting authorization up to $199,350 in case the contract cannot be executed in a timely manner to secure the 2022 pricing. Any unused funds will be returned to the CIP fund.
STRATEGIC ROADMAP
This agenda item is a routine operational item and does not relate to any of the priorities outlined in the Council’s Strategic Roadmap.
NEXT STEPS
If the Council authorizes this action, staff will enter into an agreement to purchase the DCS®5 Fingerprint Imaging Workstation from Foster + Freeman in an amount not to exceed $199,350.

This project will increase the citywide pavement condition index (PCI) from 70 to 74. The construction cost estimate for the FY23 PIP is more than $1,000,000; therefore, the City’s Community Workforce Agreement applies to this project.
BACKGROUND
On April 26, 20221, staff recommended Council approve a project list for the SB1 FY23 PIP Funding. A resolution was required to submit an application to the California Transportation Commission (CTC) to receive $3,000,000 in funding for pavement improvement.
On June 7, 20222, staff recommended Council adopt a resolution authorizing the City Manager to execute Amendment No. 4 to the Professional Services Agreement (PSA) with Pavement Engineering, Inc., (PEI) for engineering services associated with the FY23 PIP.
The scope of work for PEI is limited to engineering review, pavement evaluation, measurement of field quantities, curb ramp design, and construction support.
At the October 26, 20223, Council Infrastructure Committee (CIC) meeting, staff presented the FY23 PIP including street selection criteria, treatment types, and budget allocations.
On February 28, 20234, Council approved the plans and specifications for the FY23 PIP and called for bids to be received on March 28, 2023.
On March 28, 2023, four (4) bids were received, all above the Engineer’s Estimate. At $15,294,950, the low bid received by Bay Cities Paving & Grading, Inc., of Concord, is $1,794,950, or 13.3%, above the Engineer’s Estimate of $13,500,000. MCK Services, Inc., of Concord, submitted the second lowest bid in the amount of $15,331,605 which is 13.6% above the Engineer’s Estimate.
The PIP involves one of four types of treatments:
Pavement Rehabilitation:
1) Standard overlay of the existing street pavement with new Hot Mix Asphalt surfacing.
2) Cold-In-Place Recycling (CIR), which involves removing the top layer of asphalt, mixing the removed aggregates with a recycling agent and other additives on-site, replacing this pavement material onto the same roadway, then applying a Hot Mix Asphalt overlay.
3) Full Depth Reclamation (FDR), which consists of pulverizing and mixing distressed asphalt and underlying pavement materials with or without the addition of stabilizing agents; using the resulting material as a base for the renewed pavement structure and adding a new Hot Mix Asphalt cap.
Preventive Maintenance:
4) Varying combinations of: crack sealing, 6” spot repair and micro-surfacing.
Street selection for the PIP is based on staff’s analysis using several criteria described below:
1 CITY OF HAYWARD - File #: CONS 22-252 (legistar.com)
2 CITY OF HAYWARD - File #: CONS 22-331 (legistar.com)
3 CITY OF HAYWARD - File #: ACT 22-100 (legistar.com)
4 CITY OF HAYWARD - File #: CONS 23-082 (legistar.com)
Technology – The Pavement Management Program (PMP)5 evaluates current and predicts future roadway conditions. It provides logical and efficient methods of identifying street rehabilitation needs. It also determines the most cost-effective allocation of funds to the street segments needing preventive maintenance, rehabilitation or reconstruction. Staff utilized the PMP to compile an initial list of recommended streets. This list is then revised to consider other criteria and project budget allocation parameters.
Social Equity – Whether a particular area of the City has received its fair share of improvements in the past.
Internal Reports - Reports from the City’s Maintenance Services staff on streets needing repair were considered.
Council Member Input – Council member requests for selecting streets were considered.
Public Input - Public requests for selecting streets were considered.
Geographic Location – Selecting streets in close vicinity to help lower construction bids was considered.
Funding Availability – Available funding and potential for obtaining outside grant funding was evaluated.
The Pavement Condition Index (PCI) is an overall rating of road conditions. The PCI of each arterial and collector street segment is evaluated by an independent third-party every other year, and each residential street segment is evaluated every five years.
PCI Rating Description
100 This rating is given to newly constructed or rehabilitated roadways.
85 - 99 Highly functional roadway. No action required.
70 - 85 Roadway can be maintained ("preventive maintenance") with crack sealing, slurry seals, micro-surfacing, and some minor, localized pothole repairs. As the roadway pavement ages, preventive maintenance may not be effective after a few maintenance cycles.
40 - 70 Extensive "dig-outs," grinding, fabric, or asphalt overlays may be required to maintain (or "rehabilitate") roadways.
5 The PMP is a Metropolitan Transportation Commission (MTC) recommended software program.
0 - 40 Roadway requires complete reconstruction using full depth reconstruction, cold in place recycling, or hot in-place recycling methods. If a street deteriorates beyond certain points, it becomes progressively more expensive to bring that street back to the desired standard.
As part of the 2018 Capital Improvement Program (CIP) agenda item at the September 26, 20176 CIP meeting, Council reviewed and agreed to the following budget allocations for annual pavement improvement projects:
Minimum 20% for preventive maintenance (streets with PCI of 70-85). Minimum 15% for streets located in Industrial Hayward as recommended by the Economic Development Strategic Plan in 2014.
Minimum 10% for deteriorated streets (streets with PCI of 0-30).
DISCUSSION
The FY23 PIP calls for the rehabilitation of ninety-one (91) street segments and preventive maintenance of twenty (20) street segments for a total of one hundred and eleven (111) street segments. Based on staff’s analysis using the criteria described above, the project parameters are as follows:
Project Budget Allocation Goal Current
Performance Difference
Preventive Maintenance Treatment 20% minimum 20% 0%
Streets Located in Industrial Hayward 15% minimum 25% 10% Streets with PCI Less than 30 10% minimum 35% 25%
The project budget allocation this year is skewed towards streets in very poor condition (PCI less than 30) due to various reasons:
Including streets in very poor condition with high number of resident and business requests in order to improve and increase equity in distribution of City services (Depot Rd, Tyrell Ave, Redbud Ln, Lester Ave).
The establishment of the Old Highlands (OHHA) Assessment District requires the inclusion of streets from the area (Parkside Dr, Home Ave, Hillcrest Ave, Call Ave, Chronicle Ave).
This selection requires both judgement and experience. Staff has engaged an experienced consultant, PEI, to confirm the selection of street segments, the approximate level of treatment for each and provide engineering support services.

On November 15, 2016, Council passed a resolution authorizing a Community Workforce Agreement (CWA) with the Alameda County Building Trades Council (BTC), which applies to City projects with construction costs of $1,000,000 or more. The agreement requires contractors to use local union hiring halls, encourages contractors to employ Hayward residents or Hayward Unified School District graduates, and requires hired workers to pay union dues and other benefit trust fund contributions, etc. The construction cost estimate for the FY23 PIP is more than $1,000,000, the CWA agreement applies to this project.
ECONOMIC IMPACT
Repaving City streets is beneficial for both residents and people travelling within the City, reducing damage to vehicles and creating an environment that is well maintained. This maintenance may spur further investment in the City.
FISCAL IMPACT
Estimated project costs are as follows:
Design and Contract Administration $400,000 Construction Inspection and Testing $250,000 Bay Cities Paving & Grading’s Construction Bid $15,294,950 Construction Contingency $855,050 Total: $16,800,000
The project is funded by City’s CIP Program with Direct Local Distribution (Gas Tax, Measure BB, Measure B, and vehicle registration fees) and State RRAA (SB1) funds and there is no impact on the General Fund.
The estimated project funding sources are as follows:
210 - Gas Tax $3,470,000 211 – RRAA (SB1) $3,350,000

On June 1, 20214, Council authorized the City Manager to execute Amendment No. 3 to PSA with PEI in an amount not-to-exceed $1,362,670 for engineering services for the FY22 Pavement Improvement Project.
On June 7, 20225, Council authorized the City Manager to execute Amendment No. 4 to PSA with PEI in an amount not-to-exceed $1,755,495 for engineering services for the FY23 Pavement Improvement Project.
Staff is currently undertaking the street selection for the FY24 Pavement Improvement Project where Pavement Condition Index (PCI), location equity, public input, and funding availability are considered. Staff recommends PEI to provide the engineering services for analysis, design, and construction support for the project.
DISCUSSION
Amendment No. 5 to the existing PSA with PEI would allow continuation of engineering services for the FY24 Pavement Improvement Project.
PEI has extensive experience with City pavement management and rehabilitation projects including the following:
FY23 Pavement Improvement Project
FY22 Pavement Improvement Project
FY21 Pavement Improvement Project
FY20 Pavement Improvement Project
FY 2019 Pavement Rehabilitation & Preventive Maintenance Project FY 2017 & FY 2018 Pavement Rehabilitation Project
FY 2017 & FY 2018 Pavement Preventive Maintenance & Resurfacing Project
The scope of work for this Amendment No. 5 to PEI’s Agreement consists of the following six tasks:
Task 1 – Project Management/Coordination:
PEI will manage deliverables and overall project schedule in addition to ongoing communication with the City of Hayward.
Task 2 - Street Investigation / Engineering Review:
PEI will visually evaluate the pavement condition of each of the proposed project streets. The review will confirm the appropriate pavement treatment for each street, such as pavement rehabilitation, preventive maintenance and resurfacing, among other options. This task will allow PEI to refine the project budgets and identify any specific problem areas.

5 CITY OF HAYWARD - File #: CONS 22-331 (legistar.com)
Task 3 – Pavement Evaluation on Pavement Rehabilitation:
PEI will perform a pavement evaluation on each street segment to determine the most cost-effective rehabilitation treatments based on structure requirements, reflective cracking requirements, longevity, and economy.
Task 4 – Measurement of Field Quantities:
PEI will provide field site evaluations for each of the locations identified on the project streets list to measure and record all pertinent field quantities, such as location of crack sealing, dig-outs, and other pavement repairs.
Task 5 – Curb Ramp Design:
PEI will assist the City with curb ramp designs related to this project. This task involves designing ADA ramps in the field to provide limits of removal and quantities of work.
Task 6 – Construction Support / Mark Pavement Repairs:
After the project bids and before construction begins, PEI will mark all required pavement repairs in the field. PEI will annotate any changed quantities and provide a revised quantity summary to the City at the completion of the field work.
PEI has provided a cost proposal of $517,540 based on City staff’s estimated construction cost of $13,500,000.
ECONOMIC IMPACT
The project is funded by Gas Tax, Measure B, Measure BB, Vehicle Registration Fees, State Road Repair and Accountability Act (SB1), and Street System Improvement.
This project will economically benefit the City by decreasing motorist travel time via reduced potholes, increase curb appeal and the desirability of residential neighborhoods, and attracting business to the City.
FISCAL IMPACT
The estimated project funding sources are as follows:
210 - Gas Tax $50,000 211 – RRAA (SB1) $4,000,000
212 - Measure BB – Local Transportation $6,550,000 218 – Vehicle Registration Fee $900,000 450 – Street System Improvements $1,500,000 406 – Measure C 2,000,000 Total: $15,000,000
Approximately $198,000 in unspent funds from FY22 PIP Project 05239 has been transferred to FY24 PIP Project 05242 to support PEI’s services through the end of the Fiscal Year. The remaining funds required to support PEI’s services and other project costs are included in the Recommended FY24 Capital Improvement Program, which will be brought before the City Council for consideration at the May 16 Work Session, and again during the Public Hearing and Adoption, tentatively scheduled for June 6.

SUMMARY
During the April 19, 2022 City Council meeting, Council adopted Resolution 22-088, accepting and appropriating $389,260 in funding from the California Department of Health Care Services. Staff are seeking authorization to spend $170,000 from those grant funds to purchase two vehicles to further assist in the implementation of the HEART program. The HEART program model offers crisis support for community members experiencing mental illness, substance use disorders, and/or homelessness, while reducing police intervention.
Both will be unmarked vehicles; one for the Mobile Integrated Health Unit (MIHU), and one for the Hayward Mobile Evaluation Team (HMET) to allow flexibility when a marked police vehicle or ambulance is not required and to provide a more discreet response to community members in need.
BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION
On May 18, 2021, Council approved the recommendations of the Public Safety Policy Innovation Workshop, authorized a budget allocation to support the projects, and directed staff to begin implementing nine of the pilot projects in FY 2022, including the creation of the HEART program. HEART is a partnership between the Hayward Fire Department (HFD), the Hayward Police Department (HPD), and the City Manager’s Office that deploys two types of mobile response teams in the community as an alternative public safety response. The teams are: 1) The Hayward Mobile Evaluation Team (HMET), which pairs a specially trained HPD
District Command Police Officer with an Alameda County Behavioral Health clinician to respond to crisis calls when individuals may be a threat to themselves or others and 2) A Mobile Integrated Health Unit (MIHU), which pairs a HFD Community Paramedic and a mental health clinician to respond to pre-crisis and post-crisis calls where there is no imminent threat of harm, but community members are experiencing distress and at risk of escalation to crisis without connection to appropriate resources and referrals to ongoing services.
In December 2021, to support capacity building and infrastructure development for this project, the City applied for the California Department of Health Care Services (DHCS) Behavioral Health Justice Intervention Services (BHJIS) project, funded by the Substance Abuse Mental Health Services Administration (SAMHSA) through the Coronavirus Response and Relief Supplemental Appropriations Act (CRRSAA). On February 28, 2022, the City received notice of award in the amount of $389,260 for the project period from February 15, 2022 through February 14, 2023. The grant term was later extended through December 31, 2023. During the April 19, 2022 meeting, the City Council adopted Resolution 22-088, accepting and appropriating the BHJIS grant funding. This included funding for training, equipment, and vehicle acquisitions to support project implementation.
Staff are seeking authorization to purchase two (2) vehicles, for HEART team members to respond to calls for service that do not require a marked patrol vehicle or an ambulance. The vehicles will be Ford Explorers from the San Leandro Ford Store and will be outfitted by LEHR to comply with Title 13 requirements for law enforcement vehicles. The vehicles will support HEART program implementation by allowing a greater degree of flexibility to determine what level of response is necessary based on the type of call. In situations where a marked police vehicle or ambulance is not required, the unmarked vehicles will allow a more discreet response to community members in need. They will also provide a transportation option for the mobile mental health clinicians to respond and provide follow-up services when sworn police and fire department personnel are not needed.
STRATEGIC ROADMAP
This agenda item supports the Strategic Priority of Enhance Community Safety and Quality of Life. Specifically, this item relates to Project Q5: Community Safety Public Engagement and Policy Innovation Workshop Pilots/Projects.
FISCAL IMPACT
The purchase of the two vehicles for the HEART program will be funded by previously appropriated grant funds with no impact on the General Fund.
NEXT STEPS
Upon Council authorization, staff will work to: 1) execute a purchase agreement with Ford Store San Leandro for two vehicles as well as the outfitting of vehicles from LEHR Auto Outfitters; and 2) utilize the vehicles to continue implementing the HEART program to
provide essential mental health, medical, and other social services to the Hayward community.

Adopt a Resolution Authorizing the City Manager to Submit an Application to the Metropolitan Transportation Commission for Transportation Development Act Article 3 Funds in Fiscal Year 2023- 2024 and Execute a Funding Agreement
RECOMMENDATION
That Council: 1) adopts a resolution (Attachment II) authorizing the City Manager to submit an application with the Metropolitan Transportation Commission (MTC) for Transportation Development Act (TDA) Article 3 funding in fiscal year (FY) 2023-2024 to be used for the procurement and maintenance of a fully electric, compact bike-lane street sweeper and to execute the funding agreement with MTC once grant funding is approved and 2) adopts a resolution (Attachment III) authorizing the acceptance and appropriation of grant funds in Gas Tax (Fund 210) for this project.
SUMMARY
Every year, TDA funds are made available to cities state-wide for construction and maintenance of bicycle and pedestrian projects. In the Bay Area, TDA Article 3 funds are allocated by MTC and require the submittal of a resolution by the City’s governing body authorizing the submittal of the application for funding request. In April 2023, staff received approval from the City’s Grant Review Committee for this opportunity. Staff is now requesting the authorization to submit the funding request application to procure a fully electric, compact bike-lane street sweeper, which is an eligible expense under TDA Article
3. Once approved, a funding agreement will be executed, and funds will be appropriated to Gas Tax (Fund 210). Per the City’s accounting policies, all TDA Article 3 funded projects need to be recognized in this fund.

RECOMMENDATION
That Council: 1) adopts a resolution (Attachment II) authorizing the City Manager to submit an application with the Metropolitan Transportation Commission (MTC) for Transportation Development Act (TDA) Article 3 funding in fiscal year (FY) 2023-2024 to be used for the procurement and maintenance of a fully electric, compact bike-lane street sweeper and to execute the funding agreement with MTC once grant funding is approved and 2) adopts a resolution (Attachment III) authorizing the acceptance and appropriation of grant funds in Gas Tax (Fund 210) for this project.
SUMMARY
Every year, TDA funds are made available to cities state-wide for construction and maintenance of bicycle and pedestrian projects. In the Bay Area, TDA Article 3 funds are allocated by MTC and require the submittal of a resolution by the City’s governing body authorizing the submittal of the application for funding request. In April 2023, staff received approval from the City’s Grant Review Committee for this opportunity. Staff is now requesting the authorization to submit the funding request application to procure a fully electric, compact bike-lane street sweeper, which is an eligible expense under TDA Article 3.
Once approved, a funding agreement will be executed, and funds will be appropriated to Gas Tax (Fund 210). Per the City’s accounting policies, all TDA Article 3 funded projects need to be recognized in this fund.
BACKGROUND AND DISCUSSION
TDA funds are provided through statewide retail and gas taxes. City and county governments are required to request funding to support pedestrian and bicycle projects. The City currently has $550,629 in eligible TDA Article 3 funding to request or roll over to the new fiscal year. In April 2023, staff received approval from the Grant Review Committee for this funding opportunity. Staff is requesting $390,000 to purchase an electric, compact sweeper and the estimated annual costs for ongoing maintenance for the expected life of the vehicle (seven
years). The overall service intervals, maintenance schedules, and operational capabilities of this full EV sweeper are similar to that of the City’s traditional fleet of full-size street sweepers.
Per the City’s 2020 Bike and Pedestrian Master Plan, the City has 3.18 Class I, 50.96 Class II, and 69.04 Class III bike lane miles. The City’s full-size sweepers are unable to access some of these bike lanes due to protected bike lane features, such as parking stalls, bollards, raised curbs, and landscaping improvements. To ensure all bike lane facilities are adequately maintained and free from debris, that can possibly harm bicyclists and impact storm drains, staff is interested in procuring a fully electric, compact bike-lane street sweeper. The full EV street sweeper staff selects will have zero carbon emissions, dust pollution, and harmful gasses remittance to the environment. It also has far less noise emissions than a traditional street sweeper which provides operational flexibility for staff, such as working at night when bike lanes are least used by cyclists.
Procurement of this item will also comply with the California Air Resources Board (CARB) proposed Advanced Clean Fleet regulations with the goal of achieving zero-emission by 2045.
Per the new regulations, between 2024-2026, fifty percent of new additions to a city or county’s fleet would need to be zero-emission. By 2027, all new additions must be zero- emission, municipalities may submit an exemption request for any vehicles that may be unavailable for purchase in full EV.
ECONOMIC IMPACT AND SUSTAINABILITY FEATURES
This item has no direct economic impact. However, the procurement of this EV sweeper will help keep bike lanes clear from debris, providing a safer and cleaner City for all bicyclists, pedestrians, and vehicles. Since this will be done through the use of a zero-carbon emitting piece of equipment, there is also no harmful impact to the environment.
FISCAL IMPACT
TDA grant funding will allow for the purchase of an electric compact sweeper, which would otherwise require funding from another source. There are no matching funds required for this application. Per the City’s accounting policies, TDA Article 3 funded projects are required to be received and expensed in Gas Tax (Fund 210). Should the City be awarded the TDA grant funding, the appropriation of grant funds will be made to the Gas Tax fund (Fund 210).
STRATEGIC ROADMAP
This item supports Council’s Strategic Priority of Confront Climate Crisis since it will further the goal of transitioning at least 15% of total city fleet to EV/hybrid vehicles. Transitioning to EV/hybrid models provides a positive environmental impact as it provides for better air quality and less pollution. The equipment will also indirectly support projects listed in Invest in Infrastructure and Support Quality of Life.
PUBLIC CONTACT
Staff attended the Alameda County Transportation Commission (ACTC) Bike and Pedestrian Advisory Committee (BPAC) meeting on April 20, 2023. After the meeting, ACTC will coordinate with MTC to process requests. MTC will then approve funding requests and request execution of funding agreements.
NEXT STEPS
Upon approval of TDA funding and execution of the funding agreement, staff will receive grant funds and appropriate them to a new project in Fund 210 and procure an electric, compact bike-lane sweeper.

DULEVO INTERNATIONAL:
OUR COMMITMENT
FOR A CLEAN WORLD
Dulevo International is the leading Italian manufacturer in the industrial and urban cleaning sector, thanks to
its street sweepers and indoor and private floor care products.
Present in over 80 countries worldwide, Dulevo
International is a leading global manufacturer, boasting a state-of-theart research and development facility
and an annual production capacity in excess
of 2,000 machines.
The world changes, cities change. Municipalities are
paying more and more attention to the environment
and the means to reduce the impact on both the land and its inhabitantsto as great an extent as possible.
Subsequently, when it comes to its own products, Dulevo International has always been committed to reducing
the harmful emissions associated with the best-performing machines. Through important partnerships and
company-owned patents, it has perfected its
dust filtration systems, thereby eliminating PM10 emissions altogether. With the mechanical suction system,
Dulevo International has obtained a significant reduction in the noise levels emitted by its machines, enabling the operators to work effectively without creating acoustic disturbances. Over the years, Dulevo International
has designed a methane gas-powered sweeper,
capable of ensuring emissions below the most stringent
of limitsenforced by the law.
The new Dulevo electric street sweeper is characterised by the fact that zero dust pollution, Zero CO2 Emissions and zero harmful gases are re-emitted into the environment during the collection phase.
The various work functions, being electric and therefore not dependent on a traditional engine, reduce noise emissions by a staggering 30% with respect to traditional street sweepers. This particular characteristic enables the operators to make the most of the night shift, cleaning the streets without disturbing the peace.
EMISSIONS
The new electric model, thanks to its size and optimal manoeuvrability, is able to operate superbly within historic city centres and tight spaces, such as cycle paths and pedestrian zones.
Being an articulated street sweeper, steering by means of the central joint on the two halfframes facilitates even the most complex of manoeuvres.
MANOEUVRE PROBLEMS
Zero
Zero
Capable of replacing traditional machines with endothermic engines in terms of power and sweeping capacity, the new Dulevo ensures a full work shift, without having to reload the vehicle.
If on the one hand, the sweeping performance is on par with that of a traditional street sweeper, then on the other, the running and maintenance costs are drastically lower.
In fact, the running costs of an electric sweeper are approximately 80% lower than those of a diesel-powered machine*, working the same number of hours and shifts.
The maintenance costs are also lower. The battery life of the Dulevo electric sweeper is guaranteed up to 3,000 cycles*.

Safety requirements regarding both the operator and other persons who frequently come into contact with the machine (maintenance technicians, personnel on the ground for joint operations etc.), has led us to adopt low-voltage technology, so as to nullify the risks associated with electric equipment.

BACKGROUND
Below is a list of major milestones for the Mission Boulevard Corridor Improvement Project:
November 2007: Council approved Phase 1 of the Route 238 Corridor Improvement Project, which covered roadway and street improvements on Mission Boulevard (from A Street to Industrial Parkway) and Foothill Boulevard (from Mission Boulevard to Apple Avenue) and certified the Final Environmental Impact Report (FEIR) for the project. Subsequently, Caltrans relinquished portions of State Routes 92, 185 and 238 to the City within the Phase 1 project limits. May 2010: Local Area Transportation Improvement Program (LATIP) funds totaling $30M were approved by the California Transportation Commission (CTC) for use on the project.
August 2010: Construction of the Phase 1 project began. August 2013: CTC allocated $8.1M of the total $30M for the Route 238 Phase 1 expenses.
January 2014: Construction of the Phase 1 project was completed. August 2014: CTC allocated $2M of the total $30M for the design of Phases 2 and 3. August 2017: Alameda County Transportation Commission (Alameda CTC) obligated $21.5M in Measure BB funds; $10.6M for Phase 2 construction and $10.9M for Phase 3 construction.

DISCUSSION
Addenda
Staff issued the following addenda:
On February 28, 2023, staff issued Addendum No. 1 which responded to bidder’s clarifications.
On March 3, 2023, staff issued Addendum No. 2 which extended the bid opening date from March 14 to March 22, 2023. On March 16, 2023, staff issued Addendum No. 3 which responded to bidder’s additional requests for clarifications.
Bid Results
On March 22, 2023, three (3) bids were received. DeSilva Gates Construction (Desilva), LLC, of Dublin, CA, submitted the lowest bid in the amount of $15,742,743, which is 19% higher than the Engineer’s Estimate of $13,202,329. Ghilotti Construction Company submitted the second lowest bid in the amount of $17,117,311, which is 30% higher than the Engineer’s Estimate. Redgwick Construction Company submitted their bid in the amount of $17,791,693, which is 35% higher than the Engineer’s Estimate.
Since the initial engineer’s estimate of $10,127,039 in 2021, supply demand and labor cost along with oil prices have increased significantly resulting in a much higher engineer’s estimate of $13,202,329. Compared to the prior bid opening (on April 06, 2021) for this Phase 3 work, several items stand out as noteworthy increases contributing to the higher bids. Roadway Excavation: Unit pricing received from the bidders in April 2021 was at least 67% higher than the Engineer’s Estimate. Two of the three bids received in March 2023 were closer to the Engineer’s Estimate (2% and 14% higher), however the low bidder’s unit pricing was 185% higher.
Joint Trench: In the April 2021 bid opening, the unit pricing received for joint trench for line items were primarily lower than the Engineer’s Estimates. The March 2023 bid opening contains unit pricing in excess of the Engineer’s Estimate by at least 20%. Irrigation: Bids received in April 2021 were 442% and 457% higher than the Engineer’s Estimate ($47,061). In March 2023, the Engineer’s Estimate increased 471% to $268,920. The bids received in March 2023 were still at least 20% higher than the Engineer’s Estimate.

Local Business Contracting Equity (LBCE) Program
Since a portion of this project is funded by Measure BB, this project is required to meet LBCE goals. The participation goals are 60% for Local Business Enterprise (LBE) and 20% for Small Local Business Enterprise (SLBE) pursuant to the Alameda CTC Local Business Contract Equity (LBCE) Program. Staff performed an initial review of the bids and supporting documentation submitted and determined that DeSilva did not meet the SLBE contract goals for local business participation. Therefore, a Good Faith Effort Review was required under Alameda CTC’s LBCE Program.
Alameda CTC's Contract Equity consultant, GCAP Services, Inc. (GCAP), performed an initial review of DeSilva’s Good Faith Effort documentation. Pursuant to the procedures set forth in Alameda CTC’s LBCE Program, GCAP’s analysis was subsequently reviewed by an Interdisciplinary Review Team (IRT) appointed by the Alameda CTC Executive Director. The IRT concurred with GCAP’s finding that DeSilva performed an adequate Good Faith Effort to meet the SLBE goal on this project. Bidders were provided with the report and given the opportunity to protest. No protests were received.
On November 15, 20167, Council passed a resolution authorizing a Community Workforce Agreement (CWA) with the Alameda County Building Trades Council (BTC), which applies to City projects with construction costs of $1,000,000 or more. The agreement requires contractors to use local union hiring halls, encourages contractors to employ Hayward residents or Hayward Unified School District graduates, and requires hired workers to pay union dues and other benefit trust fund contributions, etc. Because the construction cost estimate for this Project is more than $1,000,000, the CWA agreement does apply.
Staff recommends awarding the construction contract to the responsible low bidder, DeSilva Gates Construction, LLC, in the amount of $15,742,743.
Amendment of Mark Thomas & Company’s PSA
On April 11, 2017, Council approved Resolution No. 17-127, authorizing the City Manager to enter into a Professional Services Agreement with Mark Thomas & Company for design services and technical support during construction in an amount not-to-exceed $700,000.
On May 21, 2019, Council approved Resolution No. 19-376, adopting Amendment No. 1 to the PSA with Mark Thomas & Company, increasing the contract amount by $475,000 with a total not-to-exceed amount of $1,175,000.
On July 21, 2020, Council approved Resolution No. 20-386, adopting Amendment No. 2 to the PSA with Mark Thomas & Company, increasing the contract amount by $150,000 with a total not-to-exceed amount of $1,325,000.
On January 26, 2021, Council approved Resolution No. 21-016, adopting Amendment No. 3 to the PSA with Mark Thomas & Company, increasing the contract amount by $194,180 with a
total not-to-exceed amount of $1,519,180.
Temporary Construction Easements (TCE’s) are needed prior to the start of construction.
TCE’s allow construction on private property. While the majority of the improvements will be within the City’s right-of-way, there are some improvements such as the construction of sidewalks, driveways, and driveway conforms where the Contractor will need to have access on private properties.
The approximately fifty-six TCE’s necessary for the Project had been previously secured via the right-of-way services provided by Mark Thomas. These TCE’s have since expired and must be renewed. The right-of-way services entail (but are not limited to) contacting property owners and negotiating improvements on private properties all prior to the start of work. This along with construction support will require an amendment to Mark Thomas & Company’s contract.
Therefore, staff also recommends execution of Amendment No. 4 to increase the value of the PSA with Mark Thomas & Company for construction support and right-of-way services by $107,000 for a total not-to-exceed contract amount of $1,626,180.
ECONOMIC IMPACT
Since a portion of this project is funded by Measure BB, this project is required to meet LBCE Program goals. The participation goals are 60% for LBE and 20% for SLBE pursuant to the Alameda CTC Local LBCE Program. In addition to the LBCE goals, the City’s Community Workforce Agreement is a requirement of the contract since the engineer’s estimate is over $1,000,000.
This project will contribute to the economic vitality of the City and County since this project is required to meet the LBCE goals. Additionally, completion of Phase 3 improvements would result in a complete street and positive economic benefits for businesses along the Mission Boulevard Corridor.
FISCAL IMPACT
The estimated project costs for Phase 3 are as follows:
Estimated Cost
Design $1,800,000
Construction $15,742,743
Construction Contingency (ACO) $1,574,274
Estimated PG&E Contract for Undergrounding $1,800,000
Construction Admin, Inspection, Testing $2,288,000
Phase 3 Project Total $23,205,017
The Adopted FY23 CIP Budget has appropriated a total of $21.2M for this project. Of this amount, $11.7M is currently eligible for reimbursement through the existing Project Funding
Agreement with ACTC. An additional $1,662,000 in Measure BB grant funding will be available under the amended PFA. There is sufficient funding the FY23 CIP to cover the cost of the amendment with Mark Thomas.
STRATEGIC ROADMAP
This agenda item supports the Strategic Priority of Invest in Infrastructure. Specifically, this item relates to the implementation of the following project:
Project 7c: Complete design of Mission Boulevard Phase 3 and construction
SUSTAINABILITY FEATURES
This project incorporates sustainability features as they relate to water, energy, and the environment. Additionally, improvements such as the cycle track and sidewalk will promote health through physical activity.
PUBLIC CONTACT
Community meetings were held on October 12, 2016, July 12, 2018, and February 20, 2019, at City Hall to provide updates to the project with emphasis on the cycle track during the last community meeting.
NEXT STEPS
The following is the tentative schedule for this project:
Begin Construction May 2023
Complete Construction Fall 2024
If Council approves, staff will route the construction contract to DeSilva Gates Construction, LLC, and the amendment to the Professional Services Agreement with Mark Thomas & Company.

The Shelter plans to place a donor recognition plaque on the new bank of kennels to memorialize this wonderful gift the Moirao family has bestowed upon the City of Hayward, and the animals it serves.
BACKGROUND
The Hayward Animal Shelter, also referred to as the Hayward Animal Services Bureau, provides animal field and shelter services for the City of Hayward. The Shelter is open for adoptions, recovering lost pets, intake of stray dogs and cats, and other services. Two such services include the provision of the City of Hayward’s Community Cat Trap, Neuter and Return (TNR) program, and its small animal room, where the Shelter houses stray, lost or adoptable small animals.
(1) Community Cat Trap Neuter and Return (TNR) Program
The Hayward Animal Shelter began the operation of its Community Cat Trap, Neuter, and Return (TNR) Program in 2014. Under the program, the Shelter is able to offer subsidized spay/neuter services to: (1) low-income caregivers who need assistance spaying or neutering community cats fed on their property; and (2) residents who would like to help reduce the cat population in their neighborhoods by trapping feral/free-roaming cats for purposes of spaying or neutering them, prior to being released back into the community they call home.
Pursuant to the TNR program, community cats are caught in humane traps by caregivers, neighborhood residents, or volunteers. The trappers then bring the cats to the Hayward Animal Shelter where the cats are then transported by volunteers to partner spay/neuter clinics for spay/neuter, “ear tipping”, vaccinating, and microchipping (they are often provided other medical care as needed as well), before being returned to the same location in the community where they were found. The practice of ear-tipping is a universal sign indicating that the cat has been altered.
The purpose of the program is to decrease the number of feral/community cats living in neighborhoods by preventing their continued breeding of litters of kittens. Additionally, TNR reduces shelter intake and decreases euthanasia of unadoptable feral cats, and nursing kittens who need 24-hour care. The spay and neutering of community cats through the TNR program reduces nuisance behaviors in the cats that are often the basis of community complaints, helping them to become better neighbors and creating a less hostile environment for the community cats and residents to live in. Colony management protects the cat’s continued well- being and fosters caring relationships between the residents, community cat caregivers, and the community cats they care for. TNR is the most humane and effective method for managing and reducing cat populations and is the method recommended and supported by the ASPCA, the Humane Society of the United States, and the National Animal Care and Control Association.
(2) Small Animal Kennels
In addition to dogs and cats, the Hayward Animal Shelter receives throughout the year various species of small animals, most commonly rabbits, guinea pigs, and hamsters. The small animals are stray, lost, or surrendered to the shelter for care as they await redemption, adoption, or transfer to a rescue partner. The average length of stay for our small animals is 19 days, however, we have had several remain in our care for upwards of four months. Rabbits and guinea pigs are housed in cages that were originally manufactured to house cats. Four cages make up one bank.
When the shelter is low on rabbits and guinea pigs, the cages can be opened to allow the pet to have two cages which provide the pet more space to perform natural habits and supports their improved mental and physical well-being. The two banks of cages currently in our small animal room are 23 years old and due to cage wear and tear, they are no longer conducive to disease control. Cage surfaces are cracked, and seam caulking has peeled leaving exposed material underneath that can’t be properly sanitized. Plexiglass windows are scratched and cloudy. The banks of cages sit on the floor putting the pets in the lower cages at a level that can cause them increased stress and fear. This also makes the pets in the lower cages less visible to visitors, requiring them to bend over or kneel to see the pet.
DISCUSSION
As indicated above, the Shelter’s Community Cat TNR program is an indispensable program that benefits not only our community cats but our community residents. The Shelter believes that the use of $15,000 of the $30,000 gift towards the continued operation of its Community Cat TNR program, would assist in the TNR of at least 150 community cats. This means that those 150 cats trapped, would not only be spayed, and neutered preventing the increase of the cat colony population but these 150 cats would also be vaccinated, dewormed, microchipped, and potentially provided further medical care (as needed).
The Shelter proposes that the other $15,000 of the $30,000 gift from the Moirao family be used for the purchase of new kennels for the Shelter’s small animal room. The Shelter believes that $15,000 would allow the Shelter to purchase two banks of four cages each that would comfortably house anywhere from 4-10 small animals at a time and would ultimately house close to 100 small animals a year. These new cages are constructed using a new durable PVC material and have seamless insides. Additionally, the cage doors will be equipped with quiet close latches to reduce noise that causes the animals stress and support a Fear Free environment. The new banks of cages include drawers and cabinets to store our small animal supplies and raise the cages off the floor making them more visible to adopters and putting them at a less stressful height for the animals.
ECONOMIC IMPACT
This agenda item will have an economic impact on the residents of Hayward since it will enable the Shelter to continue to provide subsidized TNR services to: (1) low-income caregivers who need assistance spaying or neutering community cats fed on their property; and (2) residents who would like to help reduce the cat population in their neighborhoods by trapping feral/roaming cats for purposes of spaying or neutering them, prior to being released back into the community they call home.
FISCAL IMPACT
The $30,000 donation from the Mairo Family Trust – Surviving Spouse’s Trust will allow the Animal Shelter to fund projects to continue supporting its operational efforts. The donation will allow for the continued operation of the Community Cats Trap, Neuter, and Return program, as well as the purchase of replacement kennels for the Shelter’s small animal room.
STRATEGIC ROADMAP
This agenda item supports the Strategic Priority of Enhancing Community Safety & Quality of Life, Growing the Economy and Strengthening Organizational Health.
SUSTAINABILITY FEATURES
The recommended action for this report will not directly result in physical development, purchase or service, new policy or legislation related to sustainability.
PUBLIC CONTACT
No public contact was made for this item.
NEXT STEPS
If Council approves, the City will send a copy of the approved Staff Report and Resolution to the Trustee of the Moirao Family Trust – Surviving Spouse’s Trust, and execute a “Request for Distribution” of the $30,000 gift, to be distributed and used as directed above.

Affordable Housing Bonds: Review and Discuss a Proposed Social Impact Bonds Program and Reallocation of $2 Million in Housing ARPA Funds
RECOMMENDATION
That the City Council reviews and provides feedback on a proposed social impact bonds program and reallocation of $2 million in ARPA funds designated for housing programs.
SUMMARY
On April 27, 2021, the City Council adopted a resolution authorizing the acceptance of $38 million in federal stimulus allocation under the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 (ARPA). On July 13, 2021, City Council approved the Hayward Federal Stimulus Expenditure Plan which included $4.25 million for housing programs. Staff have already implemented the foreclosure prevention and the emergency relocation assistance programs but have yet to implement the wealth building and tax-defaulted property acquisition programs. All funds awarded through ARPA must be obligated no later than December 31, 2024.
On March 2, 2023, the City of Hayward Homelessness-Housing Task Force (HHTF) held a Work Session on a proposal for a new social impact bonds program and to reallocate $3 million in remaining housing ARPA funding for down payment assistance for the social impact bonds program. HHTF members expressed interest in the social impact bonds program but directed staff to return to the City Council with an analysis of alternative funding uses.
Because of the anticipated need for anti-displacement legal resources for renters as the County’seviction moratorium is lifted, staff returned to City Council on March 28, 2023, with a recommendation to reallocate $500,000 of remaining ARPA housing funds for a multi-agency legal assistance and anti- displacement program with Centro Legal de la Raza, Inc. (Centro Legal), which was approved by City Council. This staff report discusses the potential uses of the remaining ARPA housing funds as directed by the HHTF on March 2 and the proposed social impact bonds program.

File #:WS 23-014
1. Tenant right to counsel (RTC). To create a successful RTC program, City Council would have to both adopt right to counsel legislation and identify ongoing funding for the program. The City currently funds three programs that provide legal services for tenants through ARPA and CDBG but ARPA are one-time use funds and staff estimates that the current funding level for legal services is insufficient to support a RTC program in Hayward. The City should evaluate the demand for legal services and local resources to provide legal assistance before committing to legislation that may require substantial ongoing resources to implement and enforce.
2. Rental assistance. Staff do not recommend implementing additional rental assistance because federal requirements prevent households from receiving multiple assistance payments for the same period and it is difficult to mitigate the risks of duplication of benefit. Additionally, given the amount of funding provided by state and federal governments to provide rental assistance, staff recommends that recovery from the pandemic include programs that will help create generational wealth for low-income communities that were disproportionally impacted by the pandemic.
3. Tax-defaulted properties and community land trusts (CLT). When initially proposed, staff anticipated that there would be an increase in tax-defaulted properties that could be converted into ownership opportunities under the CLT model. Although CLTs can be a way to preserve affordable housing, it is a limited appreciation ownership model. Similar to a CLT, the City already provides limited appreciation ownership opportunities through its Affordable Housing Program so staff proposes reprogramming the ARPA funds to a down payment assistance program and exploring a social impact bonds (SIB) program to create ownership opportunities that have a greater potential for wealth building. Support for CLTs could be provided through the City’s Affordable Housing Notice of Funding Availability (NOFA).
4. Social impact bonds program. This program would acquire and rehabilitate blighted and distressed properties without long-term affordability restrictions using bond proceeds. This program would achieve the goals of the two proposed housing ARPA programs intended to increase wealth building and create housing opportunities from distressed properties. Staff proposes using ARPA funds for down payment assistance to deepen the affordability level targeted. Funds can be recaptured upon sale of the property to support subsequent home purchasers.
5. Down payment assistance program. Staff proposes a down payment assistance program to provide community members access to wealth building through homeownership that can be recaptured for future home purchasers.
Of the proposed programs, staff recommends creating a down payment assistance program that could be used with a social impact bonds program if administrators can identify an investor or as a stand-alone program if there are no interested investors. Staff is seeking Council feedback on the programs discussed in this report.

BACKGROUND
On April 27, 2021, the City Council adopted a resolution authorizing the acceptance of $38 million in federal stimulus allocation under the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021 (ARPA).1 On July 13, 2021, City Council approved the Hayward Federal Stimulus Expenditure Plan, which included $4.25 million for housing programs. 2 All funds awarded through ARPA must be obligated no later than December 31, 2024. Of the ARPA funded programs approved by City Council, s taff ha ve implemented the foreclosure prevention and emergency relocation assistance programs and have yet to implement the wealth building and tax-defaulted property acquisition programs. A summary of each of the remaining programs is provided below:
Wealth building program. Promote home ownership and wealth building by providing down payment assistance, home revitalization grants, other housing stabilization grants, commercial assistance grants or education assistance grants.
Tax-defaulted property acquisition program. Assist community members and/or mission driven organizations such as community land trusts or non-profit organizations acquire tax-defaulted or foreclosed properties.
On March 2, 2023, the City of Hayward Homelessness-Housing Task Force (HHTF) held a Work Session on a proposal for a new social impact bonds program and to reallocate $3 million in remaining housing ARPA funding for down payment assistance for the social i mpact bonds program. 3 HHTF members expressed interest in the social impact bonds program but directed staff to return to City Council with an analysis of alternative funding uses , specifically an analysis on using the funds to assist community land trusts as initially proposed and providing more immediate support for renters who may be impacted by the upcoming termination of Alameda County’s eviction moratorium.
However, because the Alameda County Board of Supervisors failed to extend their contract for legal assistance for tenants facing eviction, staff returned to City Council on March 28, 2023, with a recommendation to reallocate $500,000 of remaining ARPA housing funds for a multi- agency legal assistance and anti -displacement program with Centro Legal de la Raza, Inc. (Centro Legal) which was approved by City Council.4 This staff report discusses the potential alternate uses of the remaining ARPA housing funds as directed by the HHTF on March 2 and the proposed social impact bonds program.

DISCUSSION
The ARPA funds are intended to be used to help the community recover from the impact of COVID-19. Analysis shows that communities of color disproportionately experienced negative financial and physical impacts from the pandemic. The housing programs proposed to City Council were intended to provide support to the community in ways that were not already addressed by Alameda County programs, such as expanded legal services to prevent foreclosure and eviction and the Em ergency Rental Assistance Program (ERAP), which provided rent and utility payments to tenants financially impacted by the virus. Through ERAP, the County provided approximately $130 million in total assistance, with $32.4 million going to Hayward residents. The City programs’ focus was to help people retain or build wealth and to pilot a program to create housing opportunities from properties typically acquired by investors.
The originally recommended wealth building and tax-defaulted property acquisition programs were approved by City Council on July 13, 2021. The programs were meant to address gaps in Hayward’s housing resources for homeownership and systemic inequities by providing wealth building opportunities and acquisition of tax-defaulted properties into housing opportunities for low- and moderate-income households. Council also adopted a foreclosure prevention program to support low-income homeowners with legal and financial assistance to prevent foreclosure and an emergency tenant relocat ion assistance program to support tenants displaced from their homes due to natural disasters, like fire. These two programs have been fully implemented.
On March 2, 2023, staff brought a proposed social impact bonds program and a recommendation to conso lidate the remaining $3 million in ARPA funding for the two remaining housing programs into one down payment assistance program that would complement the social impact bonds program and accomplish the same objectives (wealth building and acquisition of property) as the origina lly proposed programs for HHTF consideration. HHTF members expressed support for a social impact bonds program but directed staff to return to City Council with an analysis of alternative funding uses for the remaining ARPA funds. Since the March 2, 2023, HHTF meeting, City Council has approved reallocating $500,000 of the remaining $3 million ARPA funds for a legal assistance program for tenants.5 Because the demand for legal assistance is unknown, staff recommend retaining an additional $500,000 unencumbered to increase the legal services contract if necessary. Staff will return to Council with a recommendation for use of the remaining $500,000 at a later date.
For the purposes of this report, staff will focus on the potential uses for the remaining $2 million ARPA funds. Staff recommends that the funds be reprogrammed for down payment assistance but are seeking feedback on the following housing program options as directed by the HHTF on March 2:

1. Create tenant right to counsel legis lation and funding for legal services to prevent eviction.
2. Provide additional rental assistance to support tenants and landlords with past due rent because of the pandemic.
3. Providing funding to Community Land Trusts (CLT) to acquire property (potentially distressed properties) to provide long -term ownership opportunities with limited appreciation.
4. Use social impact bonds to acquire and rehabilitate blighted and distressed properties without long -term affordability restrictions using ARPA funds for down pay ment assistance which can be recaptured for home purchasers.
5. Create a down payment assistance program to provide community members access to wealth building through homeownership that can be recaptured for future home purchasers.
Tenant Right to Counsel
Tenant right to counsel (RTC) programs are widely recognized as effective eviction diversion strategies. RTC guarantees free legal representation to qualifying renters (either all tenants or tenants who meet income eligibility criteria, depending on the program design) in eviction proceedings. Evictions have significant negative impacts on tenants, including limiting their options for future housing and increasing the likelihood of future homelessness. This can lead to substantial emotional, social, and financial instability, as families often have to leave their communities, schools, and jobs to find new housing. The risk of eviction is especially high for Black renters, with one recent study showing that average eviction rates are significantly higher for Black renters than for White renters. The eviction process is complex and moves very quickly. On average, 82% of landlords will have legal representation during an eviction proceeding, compared to only about 3% of tenants; therefore, legal services are one effective solution for preventing unnecessary evictions for tenants most at risk. 6,7,8 Evaluations of existing RTC programs suggest that improving access to legal representation increases tenants’ ability to remain in their homes or successfully obtain new housing after an eviction filing.9
RTC programs require significant start-up time as well as ongoing funding sources to scale services to meet demand, even if the program restricts eligibility by income. Local legal services providers indicate that a good first step is funding legal services without a right to counsel requirement. This makes it easier to set-up tenant right to counsel programs for success in the long term because it allows partner providers to scale their operations, such as hiring enough staff and attorneys, before making the service a legal requirement.

The City currently funds the following programs that provide resources and legal assistance to tenants:
1. AC Housing Secure. This program was established by the County in 2018 to provide legal assistance and eviction defense for tenants. The Alameda County Board of Supervisor’s failed to pass additional funding for this program two months before the end of the eviction moratori um on April 29, 2023, so on March 28, 2023, Council adopted Resolution 23-071 to reallocate $500,000 of the $3 million unspent ARPA funds designated for housing programs to support Hayward tenants through the AC Housing Secure program. Centro Legal de la Raza administers the umbrella contract for this multi-agency legal assistance program for tenants.
2. Centro Legal de la Raza Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) legal services program. Each year, Council approves Community Services C ommission recommendations for allocation of the City’s CDBG entitlement award. For the current fiscal year, Council approved a $93,998 award to Centro Legal to provide consultation and eviction defense. As of this report writing, they have expended 65% of this contract.
3. Eden Council for Hope and Opportunity (ECHO) Fair Housing Services and Landlord/Tenant Counseling. For FY 2023, Council authorized a $25,000 CDBG agreement with ECHO to provide fair housing services, including prevention and response to housing discrimination. Council also authorized a $15,000 General Fund social services agreement with ECHO to provide landlord/tenant counseling, which includes education, mediation, and negotiation of rent repayment plans, depending on the situation.
To create a successful RTC program, City Council would have to both adopt right to counsel legislation and identify ongoing funding for the program. One-time ARPA funds are insufficient to continually fund the services needed to implement RTC legislation. Staff estimates that the current funding level for legal services is insufficient to support a RTC program in Hayward based on pre-pandemic eviction defense costs paid for by Alameda County and estimates of eviction volume following the end of the eviction moratorium.10 For comparison, the City and County of San Francisco RTC program has over $16 million in funding. Staff recommends that the City continue to study the demand for legal services and local resources to provide legal assistance before committing to legislation that may require substantial ongoing resources to implement and enforce.
Rental Assistance
The City of Hayward allocated over $2 million in federal CARES Act COVID-19 funding for one- time rental assistance payments to eligible households experiencing early financial impacts of

the pandemic. The program was in place from May 2020 through early 2021 and it served 670 households. Council did not authorize further funding for this program from ARPA, as an additional $32.4 million in funding for the Emergency Rental Assistance Program (ERAP) became available through the County. The County is also considering implementing a foreclosure prevention program for landlords whose tenants are eligible for ERAP but still have unpaid rent.
Staff does not recommend implementing additional rental assistance for several reasons. First, federal requirements prevent households from receiving multiple assistance payments for the same period and it is difficult to mitigate the risks of duplication of benefit. Staff could request data from the ERAP provider but would need to determine if the prior ERAP provider has the capacity to administer a new program, including verifying eligibility for each applicant.
Relatedly, there continue to be pending applications for ERAP funds and staff do not have a way to determine who has a pending application. Additionally, it is difficult to estimate the scale of the need for further rent relief, especially given the unknown quantity of pending applications.
It is unclear what amount of rent relief would be impactful. Lastly, given the amount of funding provided by state and federal governments to provide rental assistance, staff recommends that recovery from the pandemic include programs that will help create generational wealth for low-income communities that were disproportionally impacted by the pandemic.
Using Tax Defaulted Properties for Community Land Trusts Staff’s initial proposal for the use of ARPA funds included a tax-defaulted property acquisition program. The original concept was to provide gap financing to owner-occupant buyers, non- profits or CLTs to acquire tax-defaulted properties. When initially proposed, staff anticipated that there would be an increase in tax -defaulted properties that could be converted into ownership opportunities under the CLT model. There are only a few tax -defaulted, single- family homes each year, which, based on public records, appear to be owner -occupied. To pursue these opportunities, staff would need the support of an experienced organization to identify properties that are not owner occupied and clear title if necessary. The proposed social impact bonds program discussed later in this report would be administered by a non -profit experienced in the acquisition of distressed properties but the social impact bonds model is to create generational wealth so properties acquired through this program would not be available to CLTs as the focus will be on owner-occupant buyers.
A CLT is an independent non-profit organization that preserves long-term affordable housing through land acquisition or through the acquisition of existing properties. A purchaser of a CLT unit only owns the home (improvements) and enters into a ground lease with the CLT for the use of the land. The ground lease contains certain restrictions on the use of the home and provides a resale formula that limits the amount that a home can be resold to subsequent homebuyers. Similarly, a CLT can also create affordable rental housing or lease land to affordable rental housing developers. Rents are restricted through a ground lease, ensuring long-term affordability of the units. By removing land from the market and holding it in perpetuity, a CLT can restrict purchase prices or rents on CLT owned land. In this way CLTs can buffer housing and other land uses from the volatility of the housing market.
Although CLTs can be a way to preserve affordable housing, CLTs require significant financial support from municipalities. To acquire property and sell or rent to lower income households, a CLT would require land contributions or financial assistance from the City to make the development of land or property acquisition feasible. Acquired properties may require additional financial investment to cure maintenance failures or code violations to bring the property up to habitable condition. However, acquisition is only the first step and even after a successful acquisition, CLTs face major ongoing funding challenges to grow the properties in a CLTs’ portfolio as well as to support ongoing stewardship functions. These costs include building maintenance, overseeing home sales, screening potential buyers, linking buyers with lenders, and collecting lease fees, among others. Typically, the revenue that a CLT generates by charging small monthly ground lease fees , resale fees, or rents are not enough to support operations so CLTs tend to be dependent on external funding sources like grant sources from local governments and private donors. ARPA funds are one-time use funds and the City is not expected to receive any additional funding once these funds have been expended. Although the City could provide gap financing to a CLT to acquire a property, that does not address the ongoing financial needs of a CLT which the City does not have the resources to support at this time. Lastly, prior to committing funds to this type of project, the City would have to verify that the CLT has the resources to complete the acquisition and rehabilitation if necessary.
Similar to the goals of a CLT, the City already provides affordable ownership and affordable rental units that are restricted as affordable in-perpetuity through the City’s Affordable Housing Program. The City gains these units when developers provide units to comply with the City’s Affordable Housing Ordinance or when the City subsidizes the development of 100% affordable projects from collected in-lieu fees. Since the City already has a program that accomplishes the same goals as a CLT, staff recommends using the ARPA funds for other uses like down payment assistance to create ownership opportunities that provide wealth building in addition to long- term housing stability. Although staff is not recommending financing for CLTs at this time, it can provide an important housing resource if adequately funded. The City periodically issues an affordable housing NOFA to fund projects through the Inclusionary Housing Trust Fund and staff recommends that CLTs submit projects for funding consideration when th e NOFA becomes available. Through this process, the City can compare proposed projects and evaluate the best use of limited resources.
Social Impact Bonds
In May 2022, representatives from the Richmond Community Foundation (RCF Connects) and Neighborhood Housing Services of the East Bay (East Bay NHS), both non -profit community development organizations, reached out to staff to discuss the use of social impact bonds to create affordable ownership housing from distressed properties (the “SIB Program”).
On March 2, 2023, HHTF held a work session on a proposal for the SIB Program and a recommendation to reallocate remaining housing ARPA funding for down payment assistance that could be used with a social impact bonds program. Down payment assistance used in combination with a program like th e SIB Program can achieve deeper income targeting to help lower income households successfully purchase a home. The premise of the SIB Program is that distressed properties can be acquired at favorable below market prices.
The resale price s even after the additional expense to rehabilitate those properties are
still expected to be lower than market reducing the affordability gap to purchase the home and making them more affordable to lower -income households, especially when combined with price stabilizing p rograms like down payment assistance.
Conversion of Distressed Properties to Affordable Housing Resources The social impact bonds program presented by RCF Connects is a strategy to create affordable housing opportunities from underutilized properties and has already been successfully implemented in the City of Richmond. The City would issue municipal bonds or partner with a Joint Powers Agency (JPA) to issue municipal bonds (social impact bonds) to provide the initial funding for the program and loan the bond proceeds to RCF Connects. RCF Connects would use the bond proceeds to acquire target properties from lenders (banks or mortgage pool trustees), or through tax sales or other means and rehabilitate the properties to bring them up to habitable and marketable standards. Since the target properties are likely in poor condition or being sold due to tax delinquency, the assumption is that these properties could be acquired at very favorable, below market prices. These properties would then be resold to eligible owner- occupants at an affordable price. Principal and interest on the social impact bonds would be paid solely from the proceeds generated from the program with no liability for repayment on the City’s part. RCF Connects would work with local non-profits like East Bay NHS and the City to find eligible owner-occupant buyers for the properties acquired with bond proceeds.
Wealth Building
This program promotes wealth building in multiple ways.
1. Equitable Development Initiative. Developers who identify as racial or ethnic minorities are severely underrepresented in a market dominated by large global and national firms. These developers have historically faced significant barriers to entering the real estate industry due to the lack of access to capital, equity, and experience. The proposed program would include an equitable development initiative to help increase the development capacity of local developers of color. RCF Connects would engage local developers or contractors of col or by providing the opportunity to provide rehabilitation services for properties acquired through the program helping them to gain experience and grow their business.
2. Wealth Building through Home Equity. The ownership model proposed by RCF Connects and NHS, would utilize the social impact bond strategy to sell acquired properties at cost with reasonable return for investors to enable sale at affordable prices without resale restrictions to buyers that intend to owner-occupy the home. Purchasers would have the benefit of market appreciation.
3. Limited Wealth Building with Housing Stability. The proposed down payment assistance program funded by ARPA discussed in more detail in the next section, could be paired with the SIB Program to help low -income buyers achieve the goal of homeownership by providing gap financing to make the purchase feasible. There would be recapture requirements but combining the two programs would stabilize housing costs for buyers making the transition from rental to ownership and start low-income buyers on the pathway to building generational wealth.
Staff recommends pursuing this program because it accomplishes the goals of the previously proposed programs and reduces the administrative burden of standing up two new programs.
However, economic headwinds since that meeting, specifically the collapse of Silicon Valley Bank (SVB) on March 10, 2023, may make finding an investor for this program more challenging. If determined that the program is not feasible at this time, staff recommends using $2 million in ARPA funds for a stand-alone down payment assistance program.
Down Payment Assistance
The City does not currently have a down payment assistance program. Funds invested in down payment assistance can be recaptured through loan repayments and can be used to assist a new homebuyer, creating a self-sustaining revolving loan fund. Many households struggle to save enough for a down payment on a home. The Bay Area’s high cost of living, tight housing market, and the disparate economic impacts of the pandemic on communities of color exacerbates the struggle, driving up prices on single-family homes and putting them even more out of reach for low- to mode rate-income families. For many households, particularly lower -income families and people of color who have been historically excluded from the housing market, down payment assistance programs help to make homebuying more affordable and can reduce the racia l wealth divide.
If approved by Council, the proposed program would be available to low-income households.
Based on ARPA guidelines, the City would need to impose recapture requirements on these funds. Staff recommends a shared-equity model where the homebuyer receives the down payment in exchange for sharing a small portion of any appreciation of the home, in addition to repaying the original down payment loan. The shared appreciation model helps extend purchase capacity and provides the most stability in changing housing markets.
The amount of assistance provided depends on the target population the City intends to serve.
Serving lower-income households as required by ARPA funding requirements will require higher assistance to make the purchase transaction feasible. Based on preliminary analysis, staff recommends providing an assistance amount between $200,000 - $300,000. The amount of assistance a purchaser will need will vary, but if this program is funded with $2 million, the City can likely assist up to 10 households. According to Bay East Association of Realtor’s March 2023 report, the median sales price for a market rate condominium and detached single-family home in Hayward are $642,00011 and $880,00012 respectively. Even with $300,000 assistance, there is still a gap for 80% AMI households to purchase a home at the lower median home price.

80% AMI
Acquired properties in the SIB Program are expected to be sold at favorable, below market rate prices so if used with this program, the amount of down payment assistance needed by low- income purchasers to bridge the affordability gap would be lower. Even if the SIB Program is not implemented, funding a down payment assistance program would still be beneficial to promote homeownership and address gaps in City resources. Additionally, the City’s down payment assistance could possibly be layered with other fin ancial assistance programs like CalHFA and AC Boost. Staff will continue to evaluate program parameters as more information becomes available.
Conclusion
Staff recommends that the City participate in a social impact bonds program and that it reallocates $2 million in ARPA funds for down payment assistance to be used in conjunction with the social impact bond program or as a stand -alone program since $2 million in City funding and another $32.4 million in County ERAP funding has already been provided to assist tenants and landlords with rental assistance . Additionally, staff does not recommend implementing a right to coun sel program without adequate funding and legal services providers to sustain the program and is no longer recommending the acquisition o f tax - defaulted properties program due to limited inventory.
Using the ARPA funds to provide downpayment assistance creates a pool of funds that can be used by subsequent purchaser s as loans get repaid. If the ARPA funds are used for downpayment assistance with the social impact bonds program, it will create wealth building opportunities for community members and rehabilitate distressed properties consistent with the intent of the originally proposed wealth building and tax-defaulted property acquisition programs. Staff is seeking Council feedback on the programs discussed in this report.
ECONOMIC IMPACT
There is no immediate economic impact with the consideration of this report.
FISCAL IMPACT
This item has no impact on the City’s General Fund.
A social impact bonds program would be funded through proceeds from the sale of municipal bonds. Implementing a social impact bonds program to reduce the vacant and blighted property inventory in the Ci ty could mean positive fiscal impact s for the City because of increased tax revenue and reduced costs for code enforcement and law enforcement efforts to mitigate distressed properties.
Other programs discussed in this report would be funded by the reallocation of a portion of previously appropriated and unspent ARPA funds designated for housing programs.
STRATEGIC ROADMAP
This agenda item supports the Strategic Priority of Preserve, Protect & Produce Housing. The purpose of the Preserve, Protect & Produce Housing Initiative is to house and support people experiencing homelessness, incentivize housing production for all and protect the affordability of existing housing. This item supports the following goals and objectives:
Goal 1: Incentivize housing production for all
Objective H4d: Explore program to convert tax -defaulted properties to affordable housing.
Goal 2: Protect the affordability of existing housing
Objective H11g: Wealth Building/Universal Income Program
Depending on Council feedback, the Strategic Roadmap may need to be modified.
PUBLIC CONTACT
Staff received a public comment in support of a social impact bonds program at the March 2, 2023 Homelessness-Housing Task Force meeting.
NEXT STEPS
Based on Council feedback, staff will further develop the programs supported by City Council and bring the item to City Council for consideration.

SUBJECT
Airport Rental Rate Adjustment: Adopt a Resolution Amending the FY24 Master Fee Schedule and Adjusting Hayward Executive Airport Hangar Rental Rates
RECOMMENDATION
That the Council adopts a resolution (Attachment II) authorizing an amendment to the FY24 Master Fee Schedule, which would increase monthly Airport hangar rental rates by 8.5%; and implements changes to the Master Fee Schedule for FY24, which would increase monthly rents associated with storage rooms, office spaces, and tiedown spaces by 8.5%.
SUMMARY
The Airport operates as an enterprise fund and relies solely upon the revenue it generates to fund its operating and capital improvement budgets. Accordingly, the Airport does not receive any financial support from the City’s General Fund.
Airport staff regularly monitor the operating budget to reduce costs and adjust revenue so that the Airport can remain in good financial health. For example, commercial rents were increased in January of 2023 by the maximum-allowed amount of 7%. Staff has also been successful in applying for and receiving monetary grants from the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) and California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) to fund capital projects, totaling approximately $3 million over the past ten years. The objective, in conformance with Council directives and FAA standards, is to become and remain financially self-sufficient.
During 2017, a rental rate study was conducted by an independent consultant that determined rental rates were 51% below the market rate. Due to the findings from the study, staff recommended an annual increase of 10% per year over five years. However, after extensive discussions with tenants, an agreement was reached that considered annual increases of 2.5% to 5% per year during the next four fiscal years.
On January 15, 2019, Council approved a series of annual rental increases for hangar tenants that reflected the revised percentages. Standard-sized hangars increased by 5% annually, and other types of hangars were increased by 2.5%. These increases were implemented over four fiscal years (from FY19 CITY OF HAYWARD Printed on 4/21/2023Page 1 of 2

through FY22). Going forward, staff used objective criteria, past practice, a needs analysis, and current policies to establish new rental rates for FY23:
· Current hangar rental rates at nearby general aviation airports · The cost of future capital projects to improve infrastructure and enhance safety · Current and historical Consumer Price Index (CPI) rates for the San Francisco Bay Area (all consumers)
According to the latest data from October, the annual CPI increase for FY23 was 6.0% and 5.3% for FY24 (measured from February 2022 to February 2023). The CPI data was discussed with tenants during two meetings held in February and March. In order to lessen the financial impact to tenants, staff proposes a one-time increase of 8.5% effective July 1, 2023, that takes into consideration 75% of the CPI for FY23 (4.5%) and 75% of the CPI for FY24 (4%). The 4.5% increase for FY23 will not be collected.
In addition to hangar rent increases, Airport staff is also recommending adjustments to the FY24 Master Fee Schedule by 8.5% for hangar storage rooms, office spaces, and tie down spaces.
Discussion with Council Airport Committee and Members of the Hangar Tenant Community This item was considered at the Council Airport Committee (CAC) meeting of January 26, 2023. While CAC members were generally supportive of the rate adjustments, they requested that Airport staff meet with the tenants to discuss the proposed increases.
On February 22, 2023, Airport staff held an online meeting with tenants to present the proposed rent increases and address questions and concerns. A follow-up meeting was held on March 21 to further discuss the rate increase. Tenants proposed a series of rent increases over the next five years that would vary between 2.3% and 3.0% per year and were tied to the future CPI forecast issued by the White House.
However, this proposal is not in conformance with current policies related to CPI increases, which utilize year-over-year actual CPI changes for the San Francisco Bay Area to determine the adjustment.

BACKGROUND
Hangar Rent Increases
The Airport operates as an enterprise fund and relies solely upon the revenue it generates to fund its operating and capital improvement budgets. It does not receive financial support from the City’s General Fund. Both the Council and the CAC have expressed a desire to make the Airport as financially self-sufficient as possible. The FAA has a similar policy objective for airports. A key element of self-sufficiency is to reduce costs and increase revenue whenever possible. On the cost side, for example, staff recently replaced a software package with a new one that provides more capabilities at a lower monthly cost, saving approximately $25,000 over the life of the contract.
Staff also work to increase revenue by actively working to lease vacant parcels of land for commercial development, renegotiating existing commercial leases, as well as instituting rental increases for individual and commercial tenants.
A standing City policy for adjusting hangar rates was recommended by the CAC and later adopted by Council. At its meeting on May 25, 1999, a methodology was recommended to and approved by Council to increase rates every other year, on odd numbered years, by 75% of the CPI during the same period. In addition, staff were directed to conduct a market analysis every four years to ensure that hangar rents are consistent with prevailing market rates.
Because of adverse economic conditions and staff oversight, there were occasional deviations from this policy. For example, the last market rate study prior to 2017 was conducted in 2007. This benefited tenants, but it also contributed to widening of the gap between the hangar rents charged at Hayward in comparison with those at other airports in the long run. As a result, rental rates at Hayward did not keep pace, and that in turn created some budget challenges.
In March 2017, a market rate study was completed by an independent firm to determine whether the rents charged for hangar space at Hayward Executive Airport were commensurate with those at other similar airports. The firm identified comparable local airports and airports in other cities across the country. The results indicated that Hayward’s rental rates for standard sized hangars were 51% below the market rate, while most other hangar sizes were below the market rate by up to 26%.
The FAA reviewed and supported this approach in a letter dated September 27, 2018.
To arrive at rental rates that would meet the Airport’s financial needs and be acceptable to the hangar tenant community, City staff met four separate times with tenants to receive feedback. The net result was realized on January 15, 2019, when Council approved an annual standard sized hangar rent increases of 5% (and all other hangars by 2.5%) from fiscal year 2019 through fiscal year 2022. It should also be noted that Council took action at that meeting to rescind the rent increase policy adopted on May 25, 1999 suspending the use of CPI and rent studies as a basis for rent calculation through the end of FY 2022.
However, no recommendation was provided to Council on how to adjust rates after FY 2022. Therefore, staff reviewed prior policies to eventually arrive at an equitable solution for FY 2023 and FY 2024 rent increases that utilized the prior practice of adjusting rates by 75% of CPI.
Master Fee Schedule Updates
In addition to hangars, the Airport rents office space, storage rooms, and outdoor aircraft tie down space. Storage room rental rates were increased in FY 2019, the rates for offices and tiedown spaces now require adjustment to remain competitive.
DISCUSSION
Hangar Rent Increases
As noted earlier, Council approved a four-year series of hangar rent increases in 2019. That series of increases concluded on June 30, 2022. A decision was made to delay future rent increases for the first portion of FY 2023 until Airport staff could review the actual
revenues and expenditures for FY 2022. It was determined that to keep pace with inflation and meet the need for future capital improvements, such as paving and hangar repairs, rental increases are indicated through FY 2024. It should be noted that hangar occupancy rates have remained steady after implementing the prior rent increases and through the COVID-19 pandemic.
Justification
It is important to clarify the reasons for the proposed rental increases and the methodology used for the adjustment. The Airport operates as a financially independent enterprise fund.
Through the administration of fees and charges, the Airport finances all its operations including transfers to fund a Capital Improvement Program (CIP). The Airport does not receive revenue from the City’s General Fund. The costs incurred to operate the airfield are noted under “expenditures” in the Airport’s FY 2023 budget forecast (please refer to Attachment III).
Recent history shows that revenues are not keeping pace with the costs to maintain and manage the Airport. Personnel costs continue to increase due to a rise in retirement and medical costs. In addition, the Airport’s yearly contribution to fund its capital improvements continues to increase as construction contracts and associated material (such as asphalt) become more expensive. For FY 2023, the Airport is expected to experience a shortfall of approximately $1.1 million. Balanced budgets are not forecast until FY 2027, but this result is based on revenues from land leases that are currently under negotiation or capital projects that are under review by Council. Future development by commercial tenants will not be assured until negotiations are finalized, bank financing is secured, building permits are issued, and the projects are constructed.
In response, Airport staff has taken steps to reduce costs and improve revenue, such as signing long-term leases for vacant parcels, increasing commercial aeronautical rents by regularly scheduled CPI adjustments as outlined in their lease agreements, actively marketing vacant parcels, and aggressively pursuing federal and state grant opportunities to offset the use of airport funds for capital projects, among other initiatives.
In addition, Airport staff has undertaken several cost cutting measures:
LED lighting in hangars, which, after the initial investment, reduces electrical consumption and cost.
Use of infrastructure funding for pavement repairs
Replacement of the transformer in each runway edge light
Reducing the number of vehicle gates and associated maintenance
Use of infrastructure funding for replacement of obsolete equipment, such as the fire alarm system.
New inspection software, which standardizes inspections
Methodology
Staff reviewed strategies employed in the past to make a recommendation for rental increases. Since an independent rental study was completed less than five years ago, consideration was focused on employing an increase tied to the Consumer Price Index (CPI).
The initial proposal presented to the tenants in February was to increase both FY 2023 and FY 2024 rents by 100% of CPI and to implement the FY 2023 increase on April 1 for the remaining three months of the fiscal year (June 30). However, after two meetings with the tenants, and in response to their feedback, this initial proposal was modified.
The revised proposal recommends that hangar rents be increased by 75% of CPI for both FY 2023 and FY 2024, with a one-time increase for FY 2024 to occur on July 1, 2023. This compromise allows rents to keep relatively close to the pace of inflation, while easing the impact of the rent increase on tenants and not subsidizing one group of airport users with another. In early FY 2024, staff will review the Airport’s financial standing to determine what future CPI-related increases are needed, or some other form of rent adjustment would be preferable and present the findings to the CAC and Council. The concept of annual rent increases tied to CPI is used by many of the general aviation airports in the Bay Area, including Reid-Hillview, San Martin, Livermore, Palo Alto, and Buchanan Field.
Additional revenue benefits airport tenants through the completion of capital improvements that enhance safety and efficiency, such as outlined above.
For FY 2024, staff is recommending that the new rates be implemented by July 1, 2023.
This time frame includes Council consideration of the item and, if approved, compliance with the following policies:
Per Administrative Rule 1.21, at least sixty days must pass prior to enacting any revisions to the existing Master Fee Schedule
Staff is required to notify tenants at least thirty days in advance of the rate change
The CPI for the Bay Area (all urban consumers/all goods) rose by 6% between October 2021 and October 2022, while the CPI to be utilized for FY 2024 rose by 5.3% between February 2022 and February 2023. 75% of the CPI FY 2023 amounts to 4.5% and the FY 2024 increase was 4%. This increase between both fiscal years of 8.5% will be applied to all monthly hangar rental rates at the airport for FY 2024.
In order to moderate this increase to hangar rental rates for FY 2023 and FY 2024 and to lessen the financial impact to tenants, this one-time adjustment will be implemented in July 2024 and not applied retroactively to July 1, 2022. Therefore, tenants were not subject to an increase for FY 2023 and were paying the same rate for two years in a row (FY 2022 and FY23). In addition, tenants will not be subject to the full amount of the CPI in either FY 2023 or FY 2024, which results in an annual savings of $168 from the original proposal of 100% CPI for a standard hangar.
A summary of the rate changes per hangar type is highlighted below and are rounded to the nearest dollar:

Updates to Master Fee Schedule
Each year, Airport staff evaluates other various fees associated with the Master Fee Schedule to ensure they are fair and reasonable in light of existing economic conditions and financial needs of the airport. The last update occurred in FY 2021 and focused on increases to staff costs to perform certain functions, such as ramp sweeping services and hangar cleaning performed by Maintenance staff after tenants vacate.
For FY 2024, staff is recommending changes to several rates by the same increase of 8.5% (rounded to the nearest dollar) that is proposed for the hangars:

ECONOMIC IMPACT
For FY 2024, a standard hangar tenant would pay an additional $39 per month, or $468 annually with the proposed 8.5% adjustment.
FISCAL IMPACT
The rent increase is expected to generate approximately $151,000 in additional revenue in the Airport Fund for FY 2024.
STRATEGIC ROAPMAP
The additional rent generated from the increase will support the Strategic Roadmap to Invest in Infrastructure. Specifically, this item will support the following project:
Invest in City Facilities & Property
N12: Upgrade and maintain Airport infrastructure and facilities N12a: Rehabilitate the Pavement in Phases
N12b: Design and Construct Capital Improvements to Airport Hangars
SUSTAINABILITY FEATURES
This report does not pertain to any sustainability features.
PUBLIC CONTACT
This item was considered at the CAC meeting on January 26, 2023. While CAC members were supportive, they requested that Airport staff meet with the tenants to discuss the proposed increases.
Discussion with Members of the Hangar Tenant Community
On February 22, 2023, Airport staff conducted an online meeting with tenants (feedback collected was presented to the public at the CAC and in the staff report) to present and explain staff’s initial approach to rate adjustments. Thirteen members of the larger tenant group attended the meeting and voiced concerns over using the full CPI to adjust rents.
Staff noted that all of the tenant increases since FY 2019 have been reinvested back into the Airport through hangar, lighting, and pavement improvement projects.
On March 21, 2023, staff conducted a follow-up meeting attended by seventeen tenants to present the revised framework for the rent increase, which included utilizing 75% of the Bay Area CPI (all consumers) for both FY 2023 and FY 2024 to arrive at a one-time increase of 8.5% effective July 1, 2023. The tenants were appreciative of the effort staff made to lessen the rate but were still concerned about the size of the increase. The group proposed an alternative rate structure (Table 1 below) that established a series of set increases for the next five years that closely mirrored the future CPI forecast, which is a composite of various predictions and forecasts (see also Attachment IV).

The rationale behind this approach was to equate their increases with the rate schedule paid by commercial leaseholders, which allows for actual annual CPIs but capped at a maximum 7% increase every five years. The total increase to the monthly rent from FY 2024 to FY 2028 would be 12.3%, or 2.46% per year. While staff was appreciative of the proposal, they mentioned this would not be feasible as it runs counter to long-standing policy, which utilizes existing CPI data to determine future rent increases. Furthermore, as has occurred during the past year, the CPI can increase in short order, thereby rendering any forecasts invalid for rate setting purposes. In addition, commercial leaseholders are subject to a market rate study every ten years (with the next appraisal scheduled for 2028), which may increase rents by more than the CPI over the same timeframe. Finally, commercial tenants pay for their own utilities and maintenance, while those costs are included as part of the tenants’ monthly rent.
A summary of comments from the March 21 meeting and responses from staff to those comments is included in Attachment IV.
A public hearing notice was published in the Daily Review on April 14, 2023. In addition, the agenda and staff report for this item have been posted on the City’s website and distributed to interested parties.
NEXT STEPS
If approved by Council, the new hangar rates will be effective on July 1, 2023, which exceeds the sixty-day window required under the City’s Administrative Rule 1.21 for Master Fee Schedule changes. Pursuant to the adoption of the resolution revising the City’s Master Fee Schedule, staff will distribute notices to all Hayward tenants with the heretofore mentioned effective date of July 1, 2023.

Questions, Answers, and Tenant Comments
Director Ameri began the meeting at 2:35 p.m. He welcomed everyone and addressed three questions from the previous Tenant Meeting pertaining to the FY23 and FY24 Rent Increases, hosted via Microsoft Teams on February 22, 2023.
1. Why was depreciation added as a cost into the Airport Financial Statement? The Finance Department included that information in error and has since corrected it. The impact of the error was not signiϐicant.
2. Is the combined FY23 and FY24 rent increase of 12% due to staff missing implementation of FY23 increase on July 1, 2023?
No, staff did not miss it. We chose to not implement a rent increase on July 1, 2023, and any increase in FY23 rents will not be retroactive. The 12% you are referring to is a combination of about 6% proposed for the remainder of FY23 and a CPI increase for the entirety of FY24.
3. Why was 75% of the CPI used in past calculations, and now, staff is using 100% CPI?
We have decided to return to the old method of 75% of the CPI for the FY23 and FY24 rent increases. This means the CPI last year was 6%, and so the increase for FY23 is now only 4.5%. The CPI for this year is 5.3%, and so the increase for FY24 is only 4%. If you combine the two amounts, the total for FY23 and FY24 is now 8.5% instead of the 12% total originally presented.

Airport Manager Doug McNeeley presented changes made to the Airport budget and the new rent calculations for FY23 and FY24. The Airport has “transferred out” more funds for the FY24 budget to pay for needed improvements that will cause an operating deϐicit through FY26. A good portion of the estimated $1.1 million deϐicit for FY23 is due to a water bond which was needed to build the Airport’s helipad. The depreciation entries were changed for FY20 and FY21 so there were no net impacts to the fund, and the fund balances have been updated. The proposal for rent increase is, now, to have only 1 rent increase on July 1, 2023, in the amount of 8.5%. Mr. McNeeley described how FY19-FY23 rent increases ($140,600.00) were reinvested back into the airport. He opened the meeting to questions.
August Ochabauer – The numbers in the Income & Expense Summary change every time there is a presentation. Why?
Todd explained that the budget is constantly being updated by the Finance Department during budget season. In addition, the numbers changed due to the depreciation correction.
August Ochabauer – On Average, the income has decreased by $500,000 and expenses have increased $1 million. Why ha ve the expenses increased so much from the previous Financial Sheets?
Business Supervisor Todd Strojny answered that staff has “Transferred Out” more money to the Capital Improvement Program (CIP) for paving and infrastructure needs that beneϐit tenants.
August Ochabauer – Can we assume that Airport must fund 100% of pavement projects?
Todd advised, no. We have an unfunded need of $20 million with $10 million being Airport’s portion, and the FAA will provide about $10 million. Doug discussed the Infrastructure Bill funding the Airport received, the amount that Centennial Airport received, and why.
August Ochabauer – Estimates the Airport receives $2 million/year in rent from the Airport’s non‐aviation tenants, but the City of Ha
yward beneϐits far greater due to
sales tax and property tax incomes. This ϐinancial structure is what makes our airport so unique. He was surprised to learn at the last meeting that the land lease tenants have a different rate structure than hangar tenants. Why? Our pr oposal is to consider treating the hangar tenant rent increases the same way as the land lease tenants. We want to know what the increase will be for the next 5 years.
August Ochabauer ‐ Requested to share his screen to show an analysis of projected rent increases if Airport treated both types of t enants the same way. He emailed the document to Airport Operations Supervisor Pamela Svrdlin for distribution. Director Ameri appreciated the thoughts and presentation but advised that City rates are not based on forecasts and projections but rather real CPI ϐigures. Because of this, we will proceed with what Council has approved and should they want to change the calculation method in the future, they can.
Doug explained the different rate structures for individual and commercial tenants.
The FAA sets the guidelines; tenants pay different rates because individual tenants do not incur the expense of construction and maintenance.
Pa
ge 3 of 5
Harry Shin – Co
nsiders the difference between land lease tenants and hangar tenants a question of fairness. He sees the hangar buildings that were constructed 40 years ago and thinks they are “paid off” . Why do hangar tenants receive a larger increase than land leases?
Curt Taylor – When money in the Airpo rt budget is “transferred out” , what does that mean and where does it go?
Todd explained that it goes to 1) the Capital Improvement Program (CIP) for hangar repairs and pavement, and 2) Internal Service Fund (ISF) for other City departments (Information Technology, Maintenance Services, Fleet, etc.) for the services they provide to airϐield facilities and staff.
Curt Taylor – How are the FAA grants reϐlected in the revenues? Todd explained they are in a separate budget, in the CIP , and grants are applied to speciϐic projects.
Doug offered to share the CIP budget with Curt Taylor.
Brian Schott – If the City has a rent control policy for landlor ds at 5% per year, does the Airport look to follow that structure? Or can we expect CPI changes every time? Alex answered that 75% of the CPI is the expectation for every year.
August Ochabauer – He announced that he sent his spreadsheet to Pamela so that she could share it with everyone.
Alex conϐirmed and advised a link would be added to the CIP budget.
Drew Detsch – Commented that hang ar tenants are a diverse group of people from whom the City Council should hear . He’d like staff to review the tenants’ proposal and to not simply dismiss it. Mr . Detsch would like to see staff and tenants working together more for a better community. Also, he appreciates the revised offe r that Staff made today.
Alex reiterated the importance of our tenants to the Airport and the ability for meetings to be more all-inclusive being held on a remote platform, especially on a rainy day. He encouraged tenants to attend more CAC meetings, especially since they have been virtual and staff is working to continue that practice. He further explained how basing increases on estimates vs. actual ϐigures could potentially lead to higher than needed increases, and that doesn’t make sense to our tenants. o Mr. Detsch responded that the tenants would like to see a 5-year ϐixed rate like the land lease tenants.
Shawn Azimi – A tenant of 43 years said he’s never seen such frequent and high increases in rents as have been implemented over the last few years. What makes the FY24 rent increase unfair is ho
w sudden it was announced and the amount, even
with the new calculation based off 75% of the CPI. He said that if he pays such a high rent, that he needs to see improvements to the hangars. Hangar Row Q has a bad sand issue from the deterioration of the pa vement. This problem is so bad that he can’t Pa
ge 4 of 5
open the hangar doors. He feels that the 3% that the tenants presented today is a good compromise.
Alex veriϐied that Mr. Azimi listened to the beginning of the meeting when Doug presented the ways in which the Airport has been reinvesting rents into improvements.
o He did hear that part of the presentation and he wants to give staff his point of view. He will be happy to show Pamela the condition of the pavement around Hangar Q.
Joe Wlad – Advocated for predictability of a 5‐year plan like the tenants presented to Staff today. The 8.5% increase is a high, one‐time incr ease.
Jerry LaJoie – Appreciates everyone’s effort but didn’t agree with the Director’s comment earlier about the rent increase being only 65 cents/day. This increase will have a big impact on the tenants who are on ϐixed incomes. He advocated for the 3% per year increase the tenants presented to City Staff to day and asked that it not be completely dismissed by Alex. It should be presented to the City Council. Alex said he will add the spreadsheet August Ochabauer presented today into the report that will be provided to City Council. He explained that he cannot recommend a rate increase based on predicted CPI when, currently, rates are based on actual CPI.
Jerry LaJoie – Agreed with Mr . Azimi about the issue with sand around Hangar Row Q.
He suggested a new seal coat on the pa
vement and asked for a new seal coat of better
quality.
Doug said the sealcoat used in the past was per FAA speciϐications and that complaints were received about loose aggregate.
Pam added that Airport Staff will be completing the Pavement Management Plan (PMP) in a few months. She said the FAA has recently certiϐied different types of applications to ϐix pavement and will research the ability for the Airport to use those different applications around the hangar rows.
o Mr. Lajoie asked for tenants to be asked for input in the selection of new applications. Pamela advised she is open to receiving tenant suggestions and feedback.
Harry Shin – If there was no rent increase in July 2022, then he assumes it wasn’t needed. Why make it retroactive, now, with the 8. 5% increase? Alex feels that Mr. Shin’s question has already been answered.
Maggie Cook – When is the CPI announced?
Todd advised that the CPI is released every other month for the San Francisco Bay Area - December, February, April, etc., six times per year.
Maggie Cook – Which month do you choose when calculating fees? Todd said that February was chosen this year because the April CPI would be too late and would not allow for proper notiϐication to tenants or time needed for approvals to change the Master Fee Schedule.

Maggie C
ook – Are we increasing rent at 75% of the CPI for each year? Todd said yes, that is the current proposal; 75% of the CPI.
Maggie Cook – Next year, you will look at the CPI in February and then announce the rent increases to tenants in April?
Todd answered afϐirmatively.
Alex thanked everyone for their participation and comments. Staff will prepare the report for City Council and include the spreadsheet that the tenants provided.

BACKGROUND
The FY 2024 Community Agency Funding Process
Every year, the City funds social programs that serve the most vulnerable populations within the City through a combination of federally awarded CDBG funds and allocations from the City’s General Fund. As the advisory body to the Hayward City Council on community service issues, the CSC makes recommendations to Council regarding the distribution of CDBG and General Fund monies for Infrastructure and Economic Development (CDBG), Public/Social Services (CDBG/General Fund), Arts and Music (General Fund) program funds, and Special Event (General Fund) funding through the annual Community Agency Funding process.
The Community Agency Funding process for FY 2024 opened with the publication of a Notice of Funding Availability (NOFA) on September 30, 2022. The Mandatory Bidder’s Conference was held on November 1, 2022. Cumulatively, eligible applicants requested $3,698,052.
The CSC reviewed all eligible applications, and the CSC Chairperson appointed three Application Review Committees (ARCs) by funding category to conduct applicant interviews prior to drafting funding recommendations presented in this report for Council review and approval. The three funding categories are:
1. Infrastructure and Economic Development (CDBG): Affordable housing (not including new construction); housing rehabilitation; nonprofit facility improvements; microenterprise business support; and capacity building. Funds must meet one of three national objectives: benefit low-moderate income Hayward residents; prevent or eliminate slum blight; or meet an urgent need (i.e., disaster).
2. Arts & Music and Special Events (General Fund): Arts and music programs that benefit Hayward residents, with an emphasis on activities that support youth education, and Special Event funds for eligible community events that encourage inclusion and celebrate diversity in the Hayward community.
3. Public/Social Services (CDBG/General Fund): Benefit low-moderate income Hayward residents through programs to provide food security, health services, homelessness and anti-displacement services, including job training; legal services; youth and education services.
Since the initial ARC interviews, the following public meetings have been held as part of the Community Agency Funding Process:

the FY2024 funding recommendations, received

recommendations from the CSC. The public comment
period on the funding recommendations opened on

The FY 2024 Annual Action Plan
HUD requires that the City update its Annual Action Plan each year. The Annual Action Plan carries out the Consolidated Plan, which is updated every five years. Council approved the current FY 2021-2025 Consolidated Plan on June 23, 2020.5 The Consolidated Plan identifies:
affordable housing, homelessness, housing preservation, and permanent supportive housing; community development of public facilities and public services; elderly, youth, and family education services; and economic development as priority needs for the City.
The FY 2024 Annual Action Plan summarizes the actions, activities, and financial resources to be used in FY 2024 to address the priority needs and goals identified in the 2021-2025 Consolidated Plan. The CDBG funded activities that are allocated through the Community Agency Funding Process are outlined as a portion of the Annual Action Plan. Activities
DISCUSSION
The FY 2024 Community Agency Funding Process
On April 11, 2023, Council received a presentation of the CSC FY 2024 funding recommendations which includes a direct allocation to Eden Information and Referral (EIR) for 2-1-1 services, separate from the CAF process, starting in FY 2025. While Council discussed the funding recommendations, there were no directed modifications made to the recommendations. In addition to some clarifying questions, Council expressed interest in the methodology used in the development of the funding recommendations. Several Councilmembers expressed interest in understanding the reason behind partial funding or no funding being recommended to several agencies and special event applicants. Council generally accepted that limited funding, funding caps as adopted by Council, and timely use of funds largely impacted the funding recommendations. Furthermore, Council expressed concern that Alameda County Community Food Bank (ACCFB), a long-time CAF grant recipient, did not apply for FY 2024 funding. Staff reached out to ACCFB and received confirmation that their decision not to apply for FY 2024 funding will not impact services to partner agencies in Hayward.

Council also expressed a desire to identify additional ways that the City can support applicants outside of the CAF process, such as improving the Special Event coordination across various City departments and making recommendations to agencies regarding capital campaigning.
The FY 2024 Annual Action Plan
The City’s Annual Action Plan is developed each year in accordance with the housing and community development goals and objectives articulated in the Consolidated Plan. The Annual Action Plan serves the following purposes:
Identifies projects and activities to receive CDBG funds, Serves as an application for HUD funding, and
Certifies the City’s compliance with a variety of federal regulations.
Action Plan projects include activities such as expanding affordable housing, housing preservation, and permanent supportive housing; community development of public facilities and public services; homelessness, elderly, youth, and family education services; and economic development by way of small business grants and loans and extending technical assistance to small businesses.
In early March, the City was notified of its FY 2024 CDBG entitlement amount of $1,527,801.
The anticipated resources for FY 2024, including the annual entitlement allocation, anticipated program income from revolving loan fund repayments, and prior year resources, amounts to $2,452,044.
For the CDBG program, entitlement cities may allocate funds as follows:
Administration: up to 20% of annual allocation
Public Services: up to 15% of the annual allocation plus program income Infrastructure and Economic Development: all remaining funds
Staff proposes to allocate funding for FY 2024 (i.e., CDBG Program Year 2023):

On April 4, 2023, staff published a draft of the FY 2024 Annual Action Plan6 for public comment, with a Public Hearing for comment and Council recommendation for approval on April 25, 2023. The City’s public comment period will conclude on May 4, 2023 and staff will submit the report to HUD no later than Friday, May 12 2023.
ECONOMIC IMPACT
The proposed programs funded through CDBG and the General Fund’s Social Services programs have a collective positive economic impact on the community, as they will increase food security; provide vital support services to help individuals and families maintain and obtain housing, such as legal aid, fair housing services, shelter, and home rehabilitation; infuse capital through grants and loans, and provide training for local small businesses.
STRATEGIC ROADMAP
These funding allocation recommendations support several of the City’s Strategic Roadmap priority areas, including Preserve, Protect, & Produce Housing; Grow the Economy; Improve Infrastructure; and Support Quality of Life.
FISCAL IMPACT
The CDBG Program has a neutral impact on the City’s General Fund, as a portion of CDBG funds (up to 20%) may be used to pay for eligible Planning and Administration of the Program. Potential reductions to the City’s CDBG grant size and unpredictable program income will result in equivalent reductions to available funds and to the administrative cap.
The CDBG program remains an administratively complex undertaking requiring enhanced dedication of resources from recipients and subrecipients to meet federal reporting standards.
Social Services, Arts & Music, and Special Event funds are General Fund-based and subject to Council discretion. If other General Fund obligations require reductions to Social Services, Arts & Music, or Special Event funding, individual grants would be adjusted on a percentage basis accordingly. Historically, Council has acknowledged Social Services grants support “safety net” services (i.e., food, housing, support services for low-income people, and information and referral) and has refrained from reducing or eliminating funding based on fiscal impact.
A direct allocation to EIR to fund 2-1-1 services, separate from the CAF competitive process funding, would result in a $50,000 impact on the General Funding starting in FY 2025.
PUBLIC CONTACT
The Public Comment period for the FY 2024 recommended funding allocations, FY 2024 Annual Plan, and the revised Community Participation Plan is in place from April 4, 2023, through May 4, 2023. Public comment on the Community Agency Funding Process, Annual Action Plan, and the City of Hayward CDBG Community Participation Plan will be heard at the Public Hearing on April 25, 2023.
