CITY COUNCIL STAFF REPORT
ITEM NO. 5.13
DATE:
November 13, 2023
TO:
Honorable Mayor and City Council
FROM:
Marianna Marysheva, City Manager
SUBJECT:
Resolution authorizing a first amendment to an agreement with Kaizen InfoSource, LLC for records management consulting increasing the not-to-exceed amount to $212,000 and extending the term to December 31, 2024.
RECOMMENDED ACTION
Staff recommends City Council adopt a resolution authorizing a first amendment to an agreement with Kaizen InfoSource, LLC for records management consulting increasing the not-to-exceed amount to $212,000 and extending the term to December 31, 2024.
SUMMARY
In October 2020, the City contracted with Kaizen InfoSource, LLC (Kaizen) to assist in creating and facilitating a comprehensive Records Management Program. The first agreement with Kaizen assisted staff in developing a Records Retention Schedule which was completed and adopted by the City Council.
The first amendment in August 2021, included the development of file plans for the first phase of city departments to store records in Laserfiche, the City's records repository, in alignment with the retention schedule.
In March 2022, a new agreement was approved with the scope of completing the division file plans to help ensure proper electronic records retention in Laserfiche and on network drives, relocating city files in the Police Department to a records storage facility, assisting the Police Department with evaluating and moving police files, assistance with city Records Review days, and providing staff training.
This amendment extends the term of the agreement one year to complete the scope of work on the March 2022 agreement and increases the not-to-exceed amount by $52,000 to provide additional support to the Police Department for the review and categorization of paper files.
DISCUSSION
In October 2020, the City hired Kaizen InfoSource, LLC (Kaizen) to assist in creating and implementing a comprehensive Records Management Program. That contract included the creation of a new citywide 622
Records Retention Schedule, facilitating the transfer of paper records currently located in the Records Center at the Police Department to Corodata, an offsite records storage facility, participating in two Records Review Days with staff, and staff training.
In August 2021, the agreement scope was amended to include the development of file plans for an initial group of departments to store electronic records in Laserfiche, the City's records repository. The file plans include a folder system that automates the retention schedule to help ensure City staff is maintaining records for the correct amount of time and makes the process of records management easier for staff. The file plans were also used to set up a folder system for department/division network drives so all City records are managed efficiently and consistently.
In March 2022, the current agreement was approved. The scope of this agreement completes the remaining 15 division file plans, configures them in Laserfiche, and implements Laserfiche as a Trusted System. The agreement also includes preparing records management templates based on the Records Retention Schedule, another Records Review Day, and additional staff training on the new Records Management Program. In addition to the citywide Records Management Program, this agreement also included $50,000 to assist the Police Department with the review of current paper files and will provide guidance and assistance with applying retention requirements to the paper records.
The first amendment to the agreement extends the term of the agreement to December 31, 2024, to complete the scope of work on the original agreement and increases the not-to-exceed amount by $52,000 to $212,000 to continue assisting the Police Department with the review of paper records.
FISCAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE IMPACTS
The amendment increases the agreement by $52,000 to the not-to-exceed amount of $212,000. This includes an additional $52,000 to assist the Police Department with the review of paper files. The funding is included in the City Clerk Fiscal Year 2023-24 budget. Therefore, no additional appropriation is necessary.

FOR RECORDS MANAGEMENT CONSULTING SERVICES TO
INCREASE THE NOT-TO-EXCEED AMOUNT BY $52,000 FOR A
TOTAL NOT-TO-EXCEED AMOUNT OF $212,000 AND EXTEND THE
TERM TO DECEMBER 31, 2024
The City of Livermore (“City”) requires a Records Management Program to ensure safekeeping and proper retention of records including City Council and advisory body legislative meeting records, agreements, and various division records.
In October 2020, the City contracted with Kaizen InfoSource, LLC for work to help create and facilitate a comprehensive Records Management Program. That contract included the creation of a new citywide Records Retention Schedule, facilitating the transfer of paper records to an offsite storage facility, and staff training on records.
In August 2021, the contract’s scope of work was amended to include the development of file plans for an initial group of departments to store final electronic records in Laserfiche, the City's records repository. The file plans include a folder system that automates the Records Retention Schedule to help ensure the City is maintaining records for the correct amount of time. The file plans will also be used to set up a folder system for department/division network drives so all City records are managed efficiently and consistently. That agreement, and its amendment, were completed.
Subsequently, in March 2022, the City again contracted with Kaizen InfoSource, LLC, which is the currently active agreement, to complete the remaining 15 division file plans that were not part of the initial group, support the City Clerk's Office in implementing Laserfiche as a Trusted System, prepare records management templates based on the Records Retention Schedule, and provide additional staff training on the new Records Management Program. The current agreement also works to assist the Police Department in reviewing current paper records and provide guidance and assistance with applying retention.
This first amendment to the current agreement extends the term of the agreement to December 31, 2024, to complete the scope of work on the original agreement and increases the not-to-exceed amount by $52,000 to $212,000 to facilitate additional records review by the consultant for the Police Department paper records.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Livermore that the City Manager is authorized to execute a first amendment to an agreement with Kaizen InfoSource, LLC, attached hereto as Exhibit A, increasing the not- to-exceed amount to $212,000, and extending the term to December 31, 2024, for records management consulting services.

CITY COUNCIL STAFF REPORT
ITEM NO. 5.14
DATE:
November 13, 2023
TO:
Honorable Mayor and City Council
FROM:
Paul Spence, Community Development Director
SUBJECT:
Resolution authorizing the acceptance and appropriation of the County of Alameda Homeless Housing, Assistance and Prevention (HHAP) Program Rounds 3 and 4 grant funds in the amount of $439,426 and authorizing a supplemental appropriation in the amount of $245,237 in unexpended HHAP Rounds 1 and 2 grant funds.
RECOMMENDED ACTION
Staff recommends the City Council adopt a resolution:
Authorizing the City’s acceptance and appropriation of the Alameda County HHAP Rounds 3 and 4 funds in the total of $439,426.
Authorizing the City Manager, or her designee, to sign all documents related to the execution of the HHAP funding agreements in substantially the same form as the First Amendment to the Standard Services Agreement attached to the resolution as Exhibit A, and related documents with Alameda County for the City of Livermore HHAP Rounds 3 and 4 funds.
Authorizing the City Manager, or her designee, to sign all documents related to the execution of grant agreements and, as appropriate, amended grant agreements with agencies receiving allocations of HHAP funds from the City of Livermore, including agreements and amended agreements with agencies in amounts exceeding $100,000, consistent with the requirements of and in amounts not-to-exceed those listed in the agreement attached hereto as Exhibit A.
Approving a supplemental appropriation in the amount of $245,237 of unexpended HHAP Rounds 1 and 2 funds.
SUMMARY
On February 7, 2023, the Alameda County Board of Supervisors approved $423,010 to the City of Livermore for HHAP Rounds 1 and 2 (October 1, 2022 through June 30, 2023) to provide operating subsidies in new and existing affordable supportive housing units at Goodness Village and Tri-Valley Haven’s Emergency Shelter.
As of June 30, 2023, the funds for Goodness Village’s HHAP Rounds 1 and 2 have been fully expended, and $63,313 of Tri-Valley Haven’s funds have been expended. The remaining $245,237 of Tri-Valley 631
Haven’s funds will roll over through the amendment and be expended during Rounds 3 and 4.
The First Amendment to the Standard Services Agreement (Master Contract No. 902012), extends the agreement period by 12 months to June 30, 2024, allocates an additional $439,426 in HHAP Rounds 3 and 4 funds and adds additional projects and services for HHAP Rounds 3 and 4.
DISCUSSION
On July 31, 2019, Governor Newsom signed AB 101 into law which established the HHAP Grant Program. The $2.95 billion in HHAP funds will be released in four rounds of funding through 2027. The block grant funding is set aside for large cities (300,000+ population), all California counties and all Continuums of Care. Eligible large cities, counties and Continuums of Care must submit a community plan to the State for approval prior to funding being released. On April 25, 2022, the City Council adopted resolution 2022-061, ensuring the use of HHAP funds support implementation of the State approved, Alameda County Home Together Plan.
The $650 million State HHAP block grant is to support regional coordination and expand or develop local capacity to address immediate homelessness challenges in Continuums of Care (CoCs), large cities and counties. The funding allocation for each eligible entity is calculated based on the Point-In-Time Count.
Alameda County was awarded $8,815,938 in total HHAP block grant funding.
The County of Alameda entered into a Grant Agreement with the State of California, Homeless Coordinating and Financing Council for the HHAP Program authorized by AB 101 which provides block grant funds to move homeless individuals and families into permanent housing and ensures those individuals and families maintain their permanent housing.
Alameda County Office of Homeless Care and Coordination, in collaboration with the Continuum of Care agency, EveryOne Home drafted the five-year Alameda County Home Together 2026 Implementation plan. The City participated in drafting the plan through the City-County technical advisory working group of the Alameda County Conference of Mayors. This working group reviewed the implementation plan from the City’s perspective and provided feedback to the County through the various iterations of the draft plan. The County Board of Supervisors and Alameda County Conference of Mayors met several times to discuss and agree upon a Funding Framework for the plan.
Eligible uses for HHAP funding include:
Rental Assistance and Rapid Rehousing
Operating Subsidies and Reserves
Landlord Incentives
Outreach and Coordination
System Support to Create Regional Partnerships
Delivery to Permanent Housing
Prevention and Shelter Diversion to Permanent Housing
New Navigation Centers for Emergency Shelters
Innovative Solutions
Strategic Homelessness Planning
Infrastructure Development
On February 7, 2023, the Alameda County Board of Supervisors approved $423,010 to City of Livermore 632
for HHAP Rounds 1 and 2. On February 14, 2023, the County and the City entered into a Standard Services Agreement whereby the County retained the City to provide operating subsidies to Goodness Village, in an amount not to exceed $108,460, and Tri-Valley Haven, in an amount not to exceed $314,550. The City subsequently entered into subrecipient grant agreements with Goodness Village and Tri-Valley Haven. Approximately $245,237 in HHAP Rounds 1 and 2 funds designated for Tri-Valley Haven remain unexpended. The Standard Services Agreement and subrecipient grant agreements expired on June 30, 2023.
The City will receive $439,426 in HHAP Rounds 3 and 4 funding, not including the $245,237 Rounds 1 and 2 unexpended funds. The Alameda County Board of Supervisors approved HHAP Rounds 3 and 4 First Amendment to Agreement at the Board of Supervisors Meeting on October 24, 2023, extending the agreement to June 30, 2024, increasing the total not-to-exceed amount from $423,010 to $862,436 ($439,426 increase) and adding additional projects and allowable services.
The following new projects are included in the First Amendment to the Standard Services Agreement for HHAP Rounds 3 and 4:
Vineyard 2.0 ($401,660): Operations and property-related services for 23-unit permanent, supportive housing for Tri-Valley residents experiencing homelessness. Services include case management, resource center, shower and laundry services, community kitchen, winter shelter, mailboxes and storage.
Tri-Valley Haven Emergency Shelters ($18,766): Purchase a multi-passenger vehicle for the Tri- Valley Haven Homeless Shelter staff to transport individuals entering the shelter and transport clients to vital appointments to assist in transitioning into permanent housing.
CityServe of the Tri-Valley ($19,000): Provide rental assistance (including deposits and processing fees) to secure housing for those currently experiencing homelessness to better support transition into a permanent housing solution.
FISCAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE IMPACTS
No General Funds are requested for this program.
An appropriation of $439,426 for the projects identified on the HHAP Agreement to the resolution is requested at this time. Received funds from the State will be deposited in the City's State Grant Special Revenue Fund (Fund 607).
HHAP Rounds 1 and 2 funds were originally included in the FY 2022-23 budget. A supplemental appropriation of $245,237 is requested for FY 2023-24 in Fund 607, for the unspent HHAP Rounds 1 and 2 funds.

Participants who are discharged shall be afforded the opportunity to file a grievance. Contractor agrees to establish a grievance policy for the shelter and respite programs that shall comport with any Alameda County Coordinated Entry System grievance policy guidelines.
While participants may be encouraged to get a TB test, lack of a test cannot be used as a reason for discharge.

SUBJECT:
Resolution approving submission of application for funding and the execution of a grant agreement and subrecipient agreements for the 2023-24 funding year of the State Emergency Solutions Grant (ESG) Program, Homelessness Prevention Activity Notice of Funding Availability (NOFA).
RECOMMENDED ACTION
Staff recommends the City Council adopt two resolutions:
Authorizing receipt of and approving allocations for the ESG Homelessness Prevention grant, in an amount not to exceed $260,000;
Authorizing the City Manager or her designee, to execute and deliver all applications, grant agreements and all subsequent amendments and act on the Applicant’s behalf in all matters pertaining to all such applications;
Authorizing and directing the City Manager or her designee, to sign and submit Funds Requests and all required reporting forms and other documentation as may be required by the State of California in connection with the grant; and
Authorizing the City Manager, or her designee, to sign all documents related to the execution of grant agreements with subgrantees receiving allocations of funds from the State ESG Homelessness Prevention funds, including selection of, and contracting with, service providers in amounts exceeding $100,000, consistent with the allowable activities in the ESG Homelessness Prevention NOFA.
SUMMARY
The California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) received funding from the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) for the Emergency Solutions Grants (ESG) program. The ESG Homelessness Prevention Notice of Funding Availability (NOFA) is a one-time special funding opportunity utilizing $1.7 million in disencumbered funds from the 2020 ESG HUD allocation to provide funding to help prevent individuals or families from moving into an emergency shelter or living in a public or private place not meant for human habitation. Applications will be reviewed 709
as they are received, and the Department will make awards on a continuous basis until all funding is exhausted. Once all funds have been awarded, the application window will close.
The ESG Homelessness Prevention Grant requires applicants to have a 100% match for requested funds, submit a State-approved Authorizing Resolution with their application that provides approval from City Council to submit the application, and utilize all awarded funds for homelessness prevention to the at-risk population. The City will fulfill the match requirements with local Housing In-Lieu funds, through existing contracts with CityServe of the Tri-Valley.
Staff recommends City Council authorize submittal of an application to the HCD ESG Homelessness Prevention Program as it addresses the City Council’s goals and priorities to expand and improve access to human services. If approved, City of Livermore will partner with CityServe of the Tri-Valley to refine program goals and budget and submit the ESG Homelessness Prevention Grant application for consideration.
DISCUSSION
On October 24, 2016, the City Council recognized homelessness as a priority and committed local funds and dedicated staff to develop and implement strategies that address the growing number of homeless families and individuals.
On September 19, 2023, The County of Alameda Board of Supervisors declared a State of Emergency on Homelessness, directing the Health Care Services Agency Office of Homeless Care and Coordination to lead the development of an emergency response to homelessness.
The Homeless Emergency Assistance and Rapid Transition to Housing Act of 2009 (HEARTH Act) amended the McKinney-Vento Homeless Assistance Act, revising the Emergency Shelter Grants Program’s focus from addressing the needs of homeless people in emergency or transitional shelters to assisting people to quickly regain stability in permanent housing after experiencing a housing crisis and/or homelessness.
On September 25, 2023, HCD posted the ESG Homelessness Prevention NOFA allocating one-time special funding utilizing $1.7 million in disencumbered funds to provide funding to help prevent individuals or families from moving into an emergency shelter or living in a public or private place not meant for human habitation.
ESG Homelessness Prevention Grant Application has the following requirements:
Pursuant to 24 CFR § 576.201, Applicants must have identified a dollar-for dollar match for the federal ESG funding with funds from other public or private sources. The City of Livermore will fulfill the match requirements with local Housing In-Lieu funds, through existing contracts with City Serve of the Tri-Valley.
The grantee must submit an Authorizing Resolution (AR) approved by the applicant’s governing board. HCD requires that the applicant utilize the 2023 ESG Homelessness Prevention resolution template in content and form.
ESG Homelessness Prevention Grant funds will be used to provide housing relocation and stabilization services and short- and/or medium-term rental assistance. The costs of homelessness prevention are only eligible for funding to the extent that the assistance is 710
necessary to help the program participant regain stability in their current permanent housing or move into other permanent housing and achieve stability in that housing.
ESG Homelessness Prevention funds may be used to pay housing owners, utility companies, and other third parties for the following costs:
Rental application fee
Security Deposits
Utility deposits and payments
Last month’s rent
Moving costs
Emergency transfer associated costs
ESG Homelessness Prevention funds may be used to pay the costs of providing the following services:
Services or activities necessary to assist participants in locating, obtaining, and retaining suitable permanent housing.
Housing stability case management
Mediation costs to prevent loss of permanent housing.
Legal services to resolve legal problems that prohibit participant from obtaining permanent housing.
Credit repair counseling or services related to budgeting, managing money, and resolving personal credit problems.
If awarded, City of Livermore will contract with City Serve of the Tri-Valley to provide case management and homeless prevention services to residents in the Tri-Valley at risk for homelessness. City Serve has the experience and capacity to provide these resources.
FISCAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE IMPACTS
If awarded, an appropriation not to exceed $260,000, for the projects identified in the ESG Homelessness Prevention Grant, will be deposited into the City's State Grant Special Revenue Fund (Fund 607). The 100% match to access these funds has already been budgeted in local Housing In-Lieu funds, through existing contracts with CityServe of the Tri-Valley.

RESOLUTION NO. ________
IN THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF LIVERMORE, CALIFORNIA
A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING THE EXECUTION OF A GRANT
AGREEMENT TO RECEIVE FUNDING IN AN AMOUNT NOT TO
EXCEED $260,000 FROM THE STATE EMERGENCY SOLUTIONS
GRANT PROGRAM - HOMELESSNESS PREVENTION PROGRAM
AND AUTHORIZING THE EXECUTION OF A GRANT AGREEMENT
BETWEEN THE CITY OF LIVERMORE AND SUGRANTEE(S) TO
APPROPRIATE THESE FUNDS
On September 25, 2023, the California Department of Housing and Community Development posted the Emergency Solutions Grant (“ESG”) Program Homelessness Prevention Notice of Funding Availability (“the Program”). The Program will make $1.7 million in disencumbered funds available to local governments and federally recognized non-profit organizations to help prevent people from moving into emergency shelters or living in places not meant for human habitation. This is a one-time special funding opportunity.
The funds received from the Program may be used to pay housing owners, utility companies, and other third parties certain costs, including rental application fees, security deposits, utility deposits and payment, last month’s rent, moving costs, and emergency transfer costs. The funds may also pay for the costs of providing certain services, including: (1) services to assist people with locating, obtaining, and retaining suitable permanent housing; (2) housing stability case management services; (3) mediation to prevent loss of permanent housing; (4) legal services to resolve problems that prohibit participants from obtaining permanent housing; and (5) credit repair counseling services related to budgeting, money management, and improving personal credit.
The City of Livermore (“City”) intends to apply to receive funds from the Program in an amount not to exceed $260,000. To be eligible, the City must: (1) identify a dollar- for-dollar match with funding from other sources; (2) submit an authorizing resolution approved by the City Council; and (3) commit to using the funds for qualifying activities and services. The City will fulfill each of these requirements.
If awarded ESG Program Homeless Prevention funds, the City intends to contract with City Serve of the Tri-Valley (“City Serve”) to provide case management and homeless prevention services to Tri-Valley residents at risk of homelessness. The City’s existing contracts with City Serve satisfy the Program’s dollar-for-dollar funding match requirement. Further, City Serve has experience and capacity to provide these services.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the City Council of the City of Livermore that it hereby:
1. Authorizes the City Manager, or her designee, to sign all documents and execute any agreements, including any amendments thereto, necessary for the City to 733

CITY COUNCIL STAFF REPORT
ITEM NO. 7.1
DATE:

TO:
Honorable Mayor and City Council
FROM:
Paul Spence, Community Development Director
SUBJECT:
Update on the citywide poll results and preliminary priorities for negotiations with Dublin regarding open space and scenic corridor preservation in Doolan Canyon.
RECOMMENDED ACTION
Staff recommends the City Council receive an update on the citywide poll results and preliminary priorities for negotiations with Dublin regarding open space and scenic corridor preservation in Doolan Canyon.
SUMMARY
At the October 9, 2023, City Council meeting, staff provided an update on staff’s responses to Alameda County Local Agency Formation Commission's Municipal Service Review (MSR) Survey. As part of the MSR process, each agency can request a Sphere of Influence (SOI) amendment. The City of Dublin informed Livermore staff that they submitted a request to amend the SOI in the Doolan Canyon area, so that the properties fronting the freeway, the "Crosby Properties," would be within Dublin’s SOI. Dublin further expressed that it is their intent to develop the Crosby Properties in the future. In response to Dublin’s SOI amendment request, staff requested an SOI amendment to include this same area within the City of Livermore’s SOI to preserve this area as open space.
In addition, staff requested the City Council direct staff to engage a consultant to conduct a citywide poll related to this SOI request. The City Council directed staff to proceed with the poll and update the City Council on the poll results at a future meeting. The City Council also directed staff to continue negotiations with the City of Dublin to come to a resolution regarding the land use on the Crosby Properties. At the time of writing this report, staff is coordinating a meeting with City of Dublin staff to continue discussions regarding the Crosby Properties.
The citywide poll was conducted from October 30 through early November 2023. The poll included 18 questions, including questions related to the open space area between the City of Dublin and the City of Livermore and the Dublin Boulevard Extension project. The poll included email, text message, and telephone response collection. A summary of the community response to the poll, along with preliminary 738
priorities for negotiations with Dublin, will be provided as a supplemental packet item in advance of the City Council meeting.
DISCUSSION
The Cortese-Knox-Hertzberg Local Government Reorganization Act of 2000 requires Local Agency Formation Commissions (LAFCOs) to conduct special studies known as Municipal Service Reviews (MSRs) every 5 years. The MSRs examine future growth and how local agencies are planning for that growth with regards to municipal services and infrastructure systems. In August 2023, LAFCO's consultant, RSG, Inc. sent surveys to 27 Alameda County agencies, including the City of Livermore, to begin the initial phases of the MSR.
On September 18, 2023, staff responded to the MSR survey. As part of the MSR process, each agency can request a Sphere of Influence (SOI) amendment. City of Dublin staff informed Livermore staff that they submitted a request to amend the SOI in Doolan Canyon to be within the City of Dublin’s SOI, with the intent to develop the Crosby Properties in the future. In response to Dublin’s SOI amendment request, staff requested a SOI amendment to include this same area within the City of Livermore’s SOI to preserve this area as open space.
At the October 9, 2023, City Council meeting, staff provided an update on the LAFCO MSR Survey responses and SOI amendment request. In addition, staff requested the City Council direct staff to engage a consultant to conduct a citywide poll. The City Council directed staff to proceed with the poll and update the City Council on the poll results at a future meeting. The City Council also directed staff to continue negotiations with City of Dublin staff to come to a resolution regarding future use of the Crosby Properties. At the time of writing this report, staff is coordinating a meeting with City of Dublin staff to continue discussions regarding the Crosby Properties.
The citywide poll was conducted from October 30 through early November 2023. The poll included 18 questions, with a focus on opinions regarding the existing open space area between the Cities of Livermore and Dublin (the Crosby Properties) and a proposed roadway project to connect North Canyons Parkway to Dublin Boulevard through this area. The poll included email, text message, and telephone response collection. A summary of the community response to the poll, along with preliminary priorities for negotiations with Dublin, will be provided as a supplemental packet item in advance of the City Council meeting.

Cit
ywide Poll
The citywide poll was conducted from October 30 through November 5, 2023. The poll was a statistically valid poll and included 18 questions, including questions related to the open space area between the City of Dublin and the City of Livermore and the Dublin Boulevard Extension project. The poll included email, text message, and telephone response collection.
The pol
l results showed a high level of support for maintaining open space between the two cities with a majority of residents strongly supporting maintaining this area as open space.
I
n addition, the majority of respondents strongly support or somewhat support the Dublin Boulevard Extension project and were more likely to support the roadway connection if the surrounding land remained as open space. However, respondents were much less likely to support the Dublin Boulevard Extension project if commercial and industrial development were constructed. The poll results showed that there is limited support for commercial and industrial development with landscape screening applied to the site.
Ne
gotiations with City of Dublin
The
City of Dublin’s General Plan calls for potential development of this open space area between the two cities. Livermore’s goal is to develop an agreement regarding the open space between the two cities no later than summer 2024. The two cities will engage Alameda County in the negotiations. Livermore staff will provide updates to the City Council and seek direction as needed. Livermore’s staff will utilize the following priorities to guide negotiations:
• Continued collaboration on the Dublin Boulevard Extension project • Preserving an adequate open space buffer between the two cities • Livermore reviewing and providing input on any open space development contemplated by Dublin • Providing opportunities for public access to Doolan Canyon open space Item 7.1

Item Name Comment
4) OPEN FORUM A lan Marling
Livermore City Council should call for a ceasefire in
Gaza and an end to the occupation of Palestine.
Currently, US tax dollars are paying for weapons of
mass destruction that Israel is using to commit
genocide. Bombing civilians, children, and hospitals
constitutes war crimes and will continue the cycle of
violence. Livermore should stand on the side of peace,
sanity, and humanity. Escalation and warfare not only
ruins lives locally but also endangers everyone in the
world, as the military-industrial complex is responsible for escalating the climate crisis, with its huge carbon footprint.
5.2) Adopt an ordinance, adding
Chapter 8.21 Summary Abatement
of Graffiti to the Livermore
Municipal Code.
Alan Marling
Rather than merely continuously trying to control and
erase graffiti, direct that creativity. Create public
locations for graffiti arts to display their work. They might also be commissioned to decorate any boring
buildings.
5.14) Resolution authorizing the
acceptance and appropriation of the
County of Alameda Homeless
Housing, Assistance and Prevention
(HHAP) Program Rounds 3 and 4
grant funds in the amount of
$439,426 and authorizing a
supplemental appropriation in the
amount of $245,237 in unexpended
HHAP Rounds 1 and 2 grant funds.
Alan Marling Money well spent.

Dear Livermore City Council Members:
On November 6th, the Airport Commission voted 4 to 0 to require the Fixed Base Operator(FBO) to sell unleaded av fuel at Livermore Airport (LVK). We commend the Airport Commission for their timely and important recommendations. We are disappointed those recommendations are not on the city council agenda tonight.
To sell unleaded fue! at LVK, an additionalfuel tank is necessary. A second fue! tank exists at the airport but has a limited capacity of 1,000 gallons and needs to be recertified. A better option would be for the city to purchase a new 8,500 gallon tank using Airport Enterprise Funds. The city could also apply for FAA grants but that will take longer and the delay could increase health risks to lead exposure. The cost of a new tank, installation, and permitting would be about $200,000, not much considering the total airport budget.
ln an email to the Airport Commission, Mr. Ron Baskett, a Certified Consultant Meteorologist and Chair of the Tri-Valley Air Quality Climate Alliance ( (TVAOCA) wrote " Decades of research have shown that piston-engine aircraft runup, taxi and takeoff operations, produce significantly harmful lead air levels within a mile downwind of runways. The TVAQCA and the Bay Area Air Quality Management District (BAAQMD) concur that now is the time for the City of Livermore to fund the installation of unleaded av fuel stations at LVK."
A mile downwind of runways would include lead exposure to residential homes on Arlington Road and many other residential areas.
Please add the Airport Commission's recommendations to the next city agenda. Please require selling 100UL or 1OOGami which all aircraft can use. Pilots like 100UL because it has higher octane, does not conode spark plugs, and requires less engine maintenance. 35 public airports across the US are now selling unleaded av fuel. lOOgamiwill soon be sold at CentennialAirport in Colorado, and airports in Washington and Oregon. The price difference between Ieaded and unleaded av fuel would be about one dollar more per gallon.
A dollar a gallon difference is not much to ask for the health of our children and Tri-Valley residents. Act now-put the airport commission recommendations on the next agenda and vote to require the FBO to start selling unleaded av fuel.
Sincerely,
