WORK SESSION

10. Strategic Roadmap: Review and Discuss Revisions to the City's Strategic Roadmap WS 23-027
Staff report submitted by City Manager McAdoo dated May 23, 2023, was filed.

City Manager McAdoo announced the item and introduced Assistant to the City Manager Thomas who provided a synopsis of the staff report. It was noted that the final Strategic Roadmap would return to Council for approval on June 6, 2023.

Mayor Salinas opened the public comment period at 8:16 p.m.

Ms. T), Hayward Concerned Citizens member, spoke in support of Strategic Roadmap Project H1 (St. Regis Behavioral Health Campus); requested a Council and BACS public hearing/webinar about the aspects of St. Regis' program, and stated that the Strategic plan should incorporate the community through quarterly pop-up townhall meetings.

Mayor Salinas closed the public comment period at 8:18 p.m.

Discussion ensued among members of the City Council and City staff about: budget allocation towards 360 evaluations and executive coaching for department heads ($92,000); possible prioritization of Project Q8+QC22 (engage owners of vacant building properties to encourage activation, starting in the downtown, and enforce against owners of empty storefronts) the need to revise the ordinance, and consultant engagement; Project H4 (continue to explore safe parking options along with encampment management); the recruitment and hiring of the twelve positions that were key to the implementation of the Strategic Roadmap; Project H9 (continue work on updating the Affordable Housing Ordinance); broadband in the downtown and possible grants to obtain higher speed internet access; Project H1 (support development of St. Regis Behavioral Health Campus to provide health and housing services to people experiencing homelessness and mental health crises) and community meetings about the project; Project C11 (work with HASPA partners to seek grant funding to implement the Shoreline Master Plan and provide an update to Council) and a work session on the Shoreline Master Plan in the fall; and consulting services for broadband scope of work.

Council Member Zermeño liked the first option for the vision statement, indicating that the second one was too short; suggested using a mission and a vision, with the shorter one as a preamble; suggested to add the word green or sustainability to the first option; requested that Council consider reordering Project Q8+QC22 (engage owners of vacant building properties • encourage activation, starting in the downtown, and enforce against owners of empt torefronts) and move it up on the priority list in order to address issues with empt storefronts; and supported the "Education City" lens.

CONCURRENT MEETING OF HAYWARD GEOLOGIC HAZARD ABATEMENT

Council Member Bonilla Jr. liked using option one of the vision statement and supported adding reference to Hayward being a green city; supported the "Education City" lens and offered punctuation modifications for questions asked when applying an "Education City" lens to a service or project such as add commas to, "create, support, or expand", omit "If so" from the second part, and add, "or these educational opportunities" at the end of the third question; offered that if the "Education City" concept moves forward, Council might want to reprioritize Project E10 (collaborate with Hayward's educational institutions to streamline and amplify partner communications and achievements) as the collaborations will be pivotal to realizing the impacts and benefits of becoming more of an Education City; asked to reconsider prioritizing Project H4 (continue to explore safe parking options along with encampment management) as this was an issue in the community; stated that comments related to Project R5 (prioritize Hayward's involvement in the creation of a public bank) should reflect "in FY24 the staff will begin"; suggested using sign-on bonus and locking staff in for 18 months as an incentive to fill vacancies that were key in the implementation of the Strategic Roadmap; and noted he would be comfortable reconsidering the monument gateway sign removal and replacement project and the $300,000 for consulting services for broadband at mid-year.

Council Member Syrop expressed his support for option one of the vision statement but also favored retaining the longer vision statement and echoed the comment made by Council Member Zermeño; was in alignment with the "Education City" lens and wanted to hear back from staff in a year if the framework was useful or if it could be improved; was in agreement with the gateway sign removal and replacement project but did not feel strongly about using reserve funds and wondered if this could be an opportunity for a local service club or other organizations to contribute their resources and have their name on the project; wondered if some work could be done through the KHCG Task Force on litter collection; wanted to proceed with prioritizing broadband consulting as this was an issue in the downtown business community; noted that prospective funds from the gateway sign and litter collection could be allocated towards projects that were deprioritized such as the safe parking site development project and would be comfortable using funding from reserves for additional staffing for development of a safe parking site or a consultant to help with assessing how to deal with activating vacant buildings; noted there was value for Council to be able to speak about process updates and operational improvements and did not think this should be eliminated; supported quarterly tracking of projects and hoped there could be a process for more frequent updates; noted the Project QC18+QC19 (increase the number of community meeting rooms across the city in collaboration with HUSD and HARD) did not reflect the full scope of what was written for the project, indicating the goal was to have an open campus concept such as opening up Tennyson High School after hours in partnership with HUSD and HARD; shared that Project NC10 (work with AC Transit to beautify bus shelters and improve ridership experience) was also about constructing more bus seats to improve ridership; and noted that the intent of Project EC2 (provide an informational report on the Cabaret Ordinance and Conditional Use Permits and develop recommendations to update them) was surfacing ordinances that Economic Development found were outdated.

Council Member Roche agreed to retain the longer version of the vision statement as it captured a full description of the vision and supported the first option of the vision statement, and adding to it the first paragraph of the environmental section from longer version of the vision statement; was comfortable with the "Education City" lens and appreciated the inclusion of wording regarding community and business partners to demonstrate the goal of working with educational institutions and community partners; concurred with comments made by Council Member Syrop regarding Project QC18+QC19; favored allocating funds towards the gateway sign removal and replacement as it did not represent Hayward and was amenable with this being torn down in the meantime; supported allocating funds towards litter services; and was comfortable waiting for the update to the ordinance related to vacant properties.

Council Member Andrews supported a longer version of the vision statement; appreciated language about staff having what they need to thrive in their work in both options of the vision statement; supported the "Education City" lens but was concerned about deliverables; supported a ticketing system for tracking Council/constituent requests; noted she would be amenable to revisiting consulting services for 360 evaluation for cost reasons; supported the replacement of monument gateway sign on Jackson and Silva as this had been highlighted by the KHCG Task Force as an issue; noted that $300,000 was a large sum for broadband consulting services to analyze existing conditions and supported a consultant evaluating the broadband in downtown versus the Industrial sector for a minimum scope of what the consultant could do with the suggestion that Economic Development could issue grants with some of the upfront installation costs; favored allocating funds towards a contract for expansion of litter collection services and stated that organizations such as the Downtown Streets Team created reentry program that help provide gift cards to get meals and basic needs; wished to prioritize Project Q1 (continue to implement and measure the HEART Pilot Program) noting she will continue to advocate for 24-hour service; favored prioritizing Project Q8+QC22 and suggested that public art could be incorporated into empty storefronts; received clarification about Project Q15 (design and install Heritage Plaza Art pieces to honor indigenous and Russell City heritage) and Project Q22 (work with the survivors and descendants of Russell City to determine appropriate restitution) received a lower score because they were already underway; supported prioritizing Project HC10 (work with BART to encourage Transit Oriented Development at the two Hayward stations); highlighted that the number of pipes for water and sewer had been reduced to allow for a better success rate with improving infrastructure and hoped the level of replacement would be maintained; and shared that there were Council Members interested in evaluating the downtown loop and encouraged having a realistic approach, noting there were community concerns.

Council Member Goldstein liked option one of the vision statement including the additional sentence on environment as suggested by Council Members Zermeño and Roche; stated that the longer vision statement was valuable but was too lengthy; agreed that the "Educational City" lens was a great start and supported edits offered by Council Member Bonilla Jr; supported allocations towards the replacement of the gateway sign on Jackson and Silva and consulting services for broadband analysis as these were both resident and business impacting and would enhance the business community and thereby have a direct benefit to 10| May 23. 2023

the whole community impacting sales tax and property tax revenues; suggested that Economic Development could reach out to businesses that were complaining about broadband and offer temporary solution while the City continues to update the Fiber Master Plan; and supported allocation to expand litter collection services such as the Downtown Streets Team noting a solution was supporting BACS to open St. Regis as soon as possible and expand the HEART program.

Mayor Salinas supported option one of the vision statement for publication purposes and agreed that language in the lengthier vision statement version constructs the future of the City and should remain on the forefront; offered the following language changes for two questions asked when applying an "Education City" lens to a service or project as follows: "How will this service, project, or policy support or expand educational and/or economic opportunities for people in Hayward? How are we collaborating with partners to facilitate and develop education and employment pathways accessible to all Hayward youth and residents?" and "How are we communicating education and economic opportunities in and around Hayward to Hayward families? What barriers do we need to remove for people to access this information?" and adding "How will we know this service, project or policy is improving educational and/or economic opportunities for Hayward youth and residents?", shared that over the last three weeks there had been significant partnerships that had come to fruition such as the Firehouse Station No. 6, the Covenant House and Eikon Therapeutics; appreciated being mindful of potential mid- year budget requests as priorities might need to be adjusted based on neighborhood survey results; highlighted the downtown focus being on cleanliness; agreed to allocate funds towards the gateway sign removal and replacement; stated that an allocation of $300,000 for consultant services around broadband and updating the Fiber Master Plan did not seem needed and expressed the greater priority was to get downtown connected to ensure that businesses are fully functional with high quality broadband through partnerships with entities such as Comcast or grants to businesses through Economic Development.

Council Member Andrews wanted to highlight events as a priority for next year to ensure the understanding of events, coordination, staffing, interaction with groups, and confirming budgets to mitigate any confusion among community groups.

Council Member Syrop was pleased with the inclusion of exploring public art staff as a priority, and wondered if the scope could include public art and events; and clarified he did not agree with spending $300,000 for a consultant to update the Fiber Master Plan, underscoring that his interest was in allocating funds towards getting downtown businesses connected.

Assistant to the City Manager Thomas summarized that the Council was supportive of option one for the vision statement with the addition of green/sustainable language; that both would be included in the budget document for formal record and indicated that for external communication the shorter vision statement would be used; noted the "Education City" lens edits proposed by Council Member Bonilla Jr. and Mayor Salinas would be included; noted staff would provide an update on projects related to enforcement of vacant properties and safe parking; and mentioned that there was Council consensus to add high priority projects to the FY 2024 General Fund Budget with the exception of broadband consulting services, noting that staff could prepare a report with options to consider.

COUNCIL REPORTS AND ANNOUNCEMENTS
Council Member Andrews thanked the Hayward Police Department (HPD) for a successful catalytic converter event which was a proactive effort in addressing catalytic converter thefts.

Mayor Salinas appreciated HPD staff for making the process easy for residents.

Council Member Goldstein shared that he participated in HPD's motorcycle ride safety class on May 20, 2023.
