SUMMARY
The City of Livermore’s Street Lighting Project TC201923 involves maintaining and improving lighting levels throughout the City. The main objective is to further enhance pedestrian and traffic safety. This project will make several street lighting improvements by installing new streetlights, replacing lightbulbs on existing streetlight poles, trimming trees, restoring minor sidewalk pavement, and installing new bollard lights at Carnegie Park. It includes strategies for reducing energy used and saving maintenance costs by upgrading existing lighting equipment. Certain upgrades include renewable sources, such as solar powered streetlights.
On September 16, 2025, twelve (12) bids were received for this project. Staff recommends the City Council award a construction contract with BuildCorp, Inc., the lowest responsible and responsive bidder.
DISCUSSION
21 The objective of this Street Lighting Project is to improve the street lighting in Livermore by installing new streetlights and upgrading incandescent lights, such as High Pressure Sodium (HPS) lights to Light Emitted Diode (LED) and upgrading old LED lights. The improvements are proposed along East Avenue between South Livermore Avenue and Vasco Road. There are also several other locations added to this project by resident requests. Attachment 1 shows the lighting improvement locations.
This project will include new solar powered streetlights, specifically the Fonroche T3-CK16B-4K-56W light assembly on top of 25-foot-tall pole with 6’ mast arm. City Council authorized sole sourcing Fonroche Lighting America solar lights for this project on June 9, 2025.
Solar powered lights were chosen since the existing utility infrastructure consisting of overhead power lines owned by PG&E and other utility companies pose a constraint for installing the typical light poles.
Furthermore, there are potential clearance limitations, high costs for constructing underground structures, disruptions to existing infrastructure, and delays due to materials and inspections by PG&E.
This infrastructure includes sidewalks and roads. In addition to being a source of renewable energy, other benefits of implementing solar lights are as follows:
• More cost effective than customary streetlight installations. • Shorter lead time than traditional lighting equipment. • Less disruption to roads and sidewalks during construction. • It saves time on coordination with other utility companies. • Allows for better distribution of streetlights.
The Street Lighting Project is part of the City of Livermore Street Lighting Capital Improvement Plan (CIP). As part of this program, the City receives requests for lighting improvements from residents and business owners in Livermore. As an element of this Street Lighting Project, the City entered into an agreement for design and lighting evaluation services with DKS Associates for identifying several factors that include lighting objectives, existing lighting gaps, and priority lighting levels.
The priority levels evaluation identified locations along East Avenue and several other streets in Livermore. A total of 36 new solar powered streetlights will be installed with this project. In addition to solar powered streetlights, 77 new Light Emitting Diode (LED) lights will be installed as a replacement to the old LED lights on existing pole/arms along East Avenue to further improve visibility.
A major component of street lighting upgrades is to enhance lighting at parks. This project includes lighting upgrades at Carnegie Park, located at 2155 Third Street. As part of this upgrade, 35 new bollard lights will be installed along the walking paths of the park. There are currently 11 bollard lights that will be upgraded and are inclusive of the 35 bollard lights.
Other improvements include trimming existing trees that block the lighting canopy at several existing streetlights. All combined, the project will make improvements to safety and make the improvement areas more pedestrian friendly. Overall, the lighting improvements will increase the sense of comfort and security for the public.
On September 16, 2025, bids for this project were received and opened with 12 contractors submitting bids. The lowest responsible, responsive bidder was BuildCorp, Inc. The following is a list of the bids received and the Engineer’s Estimate for the project:

IN THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF LIVERMORE, CALIFORNIA
A RESOLUTION AWARDING A CONSTRUCTION CONTRACT WITH
BUILDCORP, INC., IN AN AMOUNT NOT-TO-EXCEED $617,951, FOR STREET LIGHTING PROJECT TC201923
The objective of this Street Lighting Project is to i mprove the street lighting in Livermore by installing new streetlights and upgrading incandescent and old LED lights.
Improvements are proposed along East Avenue between South Livermore Avenue and South Vasco Road. Several other locations are included by r esident requests. The project involves installing approximately 77 new LED lights on existing poles and 36 new solar powered lights.
For new streetlights, rather than using the City’s standard streetlight poles with wired streetlights, this project propo ses to deploy solar powered streetlights, specifically the Fonroche Lighting America brand of solar light assembly on top of 25 -foot-tall poles with a 6’ mast arm.
This project will also include lighting upgrades at Carnegie Park, located at 2155 Third Street. As part of this upgrade, 35 new bollard lights will be installed along the walking paths of the park. There are currently 11 bollard lights that will be upgraded inclusive of the 35 bollard lights.
Pursuant to Livermore Municipal Code section 2.68 .550 (C) , and as recommended by the City Engineer, the City Council approved sole sourcing solar powered streetlights on June 9, 2025. Solar lights are recommended primarily due to overhead constraints associated with installing traditional wired streetlights.
NOW, THEREFORE, B E IT RESOLVED by the City Council of th e City of Livermore, that it hereby:
1. Awards and authorizes the City Manager to execute a construction contract with BuildCorp, Inc., attached hereto as Exhibit A and incorporated by this refe rence, in the amount not-to-exceed $617,951;

SUMMARY
The City of Livermore has been a recipient of various discretionary local funding administered by the Alameda County Transportation Commission (ACTC) via their Comprehensive Investment Plan (CIP).
The City applied for 2026 CIP funding for the Stanley Boulevard and Isabel Avenue Crossing Improvement Project TC202133 in October 2024, and was awarded a total of $825,000 in May 2025, with a matching funds requirement of $275,000.
The Stanley Boulevard at Isabel Avenue Connector Ramp Crossing Improvements Project is identified as a high intensity crossing improvement project in the Livermore Bicycle, Pedestrian, and Trails Active Transportation Plan. The project will enhance trail crossing safety at the intersection, which connects to 33 the existing Iron Horse Trail and Isabel Trail.
Staff recommends the City Council authorize the City Manager to execute the agreement with the Alameda County Transportation Commission (ACTC) administered 2026 Comprehensive Investment Plan (CIP) that provides $825,000 in funding for the Stanley Boulevard at Isabel Avenue Connector Ramp Crossing Improvements Project TC202133
DISCUSSION
The Comprehensive Investment Plan (CIP) is ACTC's near-term strategic planning and programming document. Fund sources administered by ACTC, including Measures B and BB (MB/MBB), Vehicle Registration Fee (VRF), and Transportation Fund for Clean Air (TFCA), are programmed through a consolidated process to maximize investments in transportation infrastructure and program operations that are essential for enhancing, developing, and maintaining the county’s multi-modal transportation system.
The ACTC's 2026 Comprehensive Investment Plan (CIP) funding is available for bicycle and/or pedestrian capital projects which are programmed in the Alameda County 2020 Countywide Transportation Plan (CTP).
With support from the City Council on October 18, 2024, per Resolution 2024-180, staff applied for 2026 CIP funding in October 2024, for the Stanley Boulevard at Isabel Avenue Connector Ramp Crossing Improvements Project TC202133 and was awarded a total of $825,000 funding in May 2025. This funding can only be used during the project's construction phase and local matching funds of $275,000 are required.
The Stanley Boulevard at Isabel Avenue Connector Ramp Crossing Improvements Project TC202133 was initiated following a fatality between a crossing bicyclist and a turning truck at this intersection. The project scope includes implementing curb extensions, bicycle signals, right-turn restrictions during trail user crossing, signal modifications, pavement markings, signage, and signal timing adjustments to improve bicycle and pedestrian safety at the intersection. Attachment 1 shows the project location. The project is identified as a High Intensity Crossing Improvement Project in the Livermore Bicycle, Pedestrian, & Trails Active Transportation Plan. The Livermore Active Transportation Plan is identified in the Countywide Transportation Plan as Project 212.
The project goal is to enhance crossing safety at the intersection, which connects the existing Iron Horse Trail and Isabel Trail. The project has a currently completed design and is in the Caltrans encroachment permit process. Construction is tentatively scheduled to begin in summer 2026.
FISCAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE IMPACTS
The Stanley Boulevard at Isabel Avenue Connector Ramp Crossing Improvements Project TC202133 is currently identified in the 2025-2030 Capital Improvement Plan with a total funding of $1,530,000, including $100,000 of State-SB1 and $1,430,000 of Measure BB-Local Streets & Roads. With the 2026 ACTC CIP funding of $825,000, the Measure BB funding can be reduced from $1,430,000 to $605,000.
The remaining $605,000 of Measure BB qualifies for the required matching funds. The current and proposed funding for Stanley Boulevard at Isabel Avenue Connector Ramp Crossing Improvements Project TC202133 is shown in the table below.

The voters of Alameda County, pursuant to the provisions of the Local Transportation Authority and Improvement Act, California Public Utilities Code Section 180000 et seq., approved Measure BB at the General Election held on November 4, 2014, authorizing the extension of an existing one-half of one percent transaction and use tax scheduled to terminate on March 31, 2022, and the augmentation of the tax by one-half of one percent, and giving ALAMEDA CTC responsibility for the administration of the proceeds of the 2014 Measure BB tax. The duration of the 2014 Measure BB tax will be 30 years from the initial year of collection, which began April 1, 2015, with said tax to terminate/expire on March 31, 2045. The proceeds from the 2014 Measure BB will be used to pay for investments as outlined in the 2014 Alameda County Transportation Expenditure Plan (“2014 TEP”), as it may be amended.
F. As the Transportation Fund for Clean Air (“TFCA”) Program Manager in Alameda County, A
LAMEDA CTC annually programs 40 percent of the TFCA funds collected in Alameda County. ALAMEDA CTC receives these funds from the Bay Area Air Quality Management District (“AIR DISTRICT”), and then distributes these funds on a reimbursement basis to eligible project sponsors.
G. ALAMEDA CTC is continuing the implementation of the CMA Exchange Program, originally established by the ACCMA, for the purpose of providing local or otherwise unrestricted funds to ALAMEDA CTC for use in projects and programs adopted into the CMA Transportation Improvement Program (“CMA TIP”) by ALAMEDA CTC.

68 CITY COUNCIL STAFF REPORT
ITEM NO. 6.4
DATE:
October 27, 2025
TO:
Honorable Mayor and City Council
FROM:
Brent Smith, Community Development Director
SUBJECT:
Resolutions authorizing execution of a cooperation agreement with Alameda County to reimburse the City with County funding in an amount not-to-exceed $700,000 for project management and engineering services for the South Livermore Valley Sewer Extension Project WW202313; and authorizing, subject to Alameda County approving the cooperation agreement, a supplemental appropriation of $700,000 in Alameda County funding to the CIP Wastewater Fund 621 in the FY 2025-26 budget and execution of an agreement with Carollo Engineers, Inc., in an amount not-to-exceed $629,000 and a term ending December 31, 2026, to provide engineering analysis and prepare a basis of design report for the South Livermore Valley Sewer Extension Project WW202313.
RECOMMENDED ACTION
Staff recommends the City Council adopt two resolutions:
1 .
Authorizing the City Manager to execute a cooperation agreement with Alameda County to reimburse the City with County funding in an amount not-to-exceed $700,000 for project management and engineering services for the South Livermore Valley Sewer Extension Project WW202313; and
2 .
A
uthorizing, subject to Alameda County approving the cooperation agreement, a supplemental appropriation of $700,000 in Alameda County funding to the CIP Wastewater Fund (Fund 621) in the FY 2025-26 budget.
3 .
Authorizing the City Manager to execute an agreement with Carollo Engineers, Inc., in an amount not-to-exceed $629,000 and a term ending December 31, 2026, to provide engineering analysis and prepare a basis of design report for the South Livermore Valley Sewer Extension Project WW202313.
DECISION TYPE
Administrative
SUMMARY
On November 8, 2022, Livermore voters approved amendments to the City’s South Livermore Valley 69 Urban Growth Boundary Initiative (Measure P). These amendments allow the extension of sewer services to the northeast portion of the South Livermore Valley in unincorporated Alameda County along Buena Vista Avenue and segments of Tesla Road and Greenville Road (Attachment 1).
The City of Livermore (City) and County of Alameda (County) staff have developed a cooperation agreement that allows the County to fund and the City to manage an engineering consultant to provide topographic surveys, perform preliminary engineering analysis and develop a basis of design report for the South Livermore Valley Sewer Extension. This report will include recommended sewer main alignment and depth, locations (if any) where pump or lift stations would be needed and preliminary cost estimates for the project’s construction, operation, maintenance and revenue.
Carollo Engineers, Inc. submitted a proposal that meets the City and County's requirements for qualifications and scope of work. This agreement with Carollo Engineers, Inc., in an amount not-to- exceed $629,000, will provide the information needed prior to beginning final design work and will inform ongoing discussions with Alameda County regarding project implementation, funding, asset ownership, operations, and maintenance.
DISCUSSION
On July 11, 2022, the City Council adopted the South Livermore Valley Sewer Extension Project Supplemental Environmental Impact Report (SEIR) and authorized amendments to the City’s South Livermore Valley Urban Growth Boundary Initiative, to address groundwater concerns and allow for continued commercial and visitor serving developments in this area of unincorporated Alameda County.
This action was requested by the Tri-Valley Conservancy and other South Livermore Valley stakeholders in response to Zone 7's Nutrient Management Plan for the Livermore Valley Groundwater Basin (July 2015), and the Alameda County Local Agency Management Program for septic systems (June 2018), which both identify areas of concern regarding nitrate concentrations and describe requirements, procedures, prohibitions, and corrective actions including connection to a municipal sewer system.
On November 8, 2022, Livermore voters approved amendments to the City’s South Livermore Valley Urban Growth Boundary Initiative (Measure P). These amendments allow the extension of sewer services to the northeast portion of the South Livermore Valley in unincorporated Alameda County along Buena Vista Avenue and segments of Tesla Road and Greenville Road. The location of the proposed sewer extension is generally shown on Attachment 1 and would connect to the existing City sewer main on East Avenue at Buena Vista Avenue. The new sewer main would provide adjacent Alameda County residents and businesses the opportunity to connect to sewer service.
City and Alameda County staff have developed a Cooperation Agreement (Exhibit A to the Cooperation Agreement Resolution) allowing the County to provide funding and the City to utilize the County funding to provide project management services and contract with an engineering consultant with expertise in sewer systems. The consultant will obtain topographic surveys, perform engineering analysis and develop a basis of design report. This report will include recommended sewer main alignment and depth, locations (if any) where pump or lift stations would be needed and preliminary cost estimates for the project’s construction, operation, maintenance and revenue. This information is needed prior to beginning final design work and will inform ongoing discussions with Alameda County regarding project implementation, funding, asset ownership, operations, maintenance, and other issues related to the sewer extension.
70 In May 2024, staff sent out a request for qualifications for consultants to perform engineering services for utility projects, including water and wastewater projects, associated with the City’s Capital Improvement Program. The purpose of this process was to receive statements of qualifications (SOQs) from multiple consultants, and based on review of these qualifications, execute on-call utility engineering services agreements and establish a short list of consultants who would be eligible for supporting future utility projects. Based on review of the SOQs including qualifications, interest, and coverage, a selection committee comprised of staff from Engineering and Water Resources found Carollo to be the top-ranked consultant for utility engineering services with a wastewater emphasis.
In December 2024, staff solicited proposals from three engineering firms on the prequalified list of utility engineering consultants for engineering services for the South Livermore Valley Sewer Extension Project, including land survey, engineering analysis to produce a basis of design report that will include project design recommendations, estimates of capital, operating and maintenance costs, and revenue.
Carollo Engineers submitted a proposal that was reviewed and approved by City and County staff.
Carollo Engineers have satisfactorily completed work on other projects for the City. A professional services agreement with Carollo Engineers, Inc. (Exhibit A to the Professional Services Agreement Resolution) is recommended for approval subject to Alameda County approving the cooperation agreement, which the County will consider subsequent to the City's approval.
ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
On July 11, 2022, the City adopted the South Livermore Valley Sewer Extension Project Supplemental Environmental Impact Report (SEIR). No additional environmental review is required for this action.
FISCAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE IMPACTS
At this time, funding for the South Livermore Valley Sewer Extension Project is limited to $6.5 million set aside by Alameda County. This funding is sufficient for this action.
To proceed with the Project, staff proposes a supplemental appropriation of $700,000 in Alameda County funding to the CIP Wastewater Fund (Fund 621) in the FY 2025-26 budget for the South Livermore Valley Sewer Extension Project WW202313 subject to Alameda County approving the cooperation agreement. Alameda County will reimburse the City for the preliminary design phase expenses and $71,000 for City staff costs to provide project management.

EXHIBIT A
85 EXHIBIT C-1
Consultant Deliverables for Task 1.0:
• Updated project design schedule at each design deliverable milestone. • Meeting agenda, presentation materials, and meeting minutes. • Progress letter report with each monthly invoice .
Task 2.0 - Basis of Design
The Basis of Design phase will address several questions that will need to be solved prior to the start of design to set the project off on the right foot. Having answers to these questions will be necessary to avoid inefficiencies and rework during design and problems post construction.
These questions include but are not limited to the following:
• Evaluating the cost of connection vs continued operation of septic systems. • · Look for ways to make connecting to the new sewer more financially feasible for property owners (gravity vs grinder pump).
• Identifying when customers will connect.
• Define flows and loads.
• Identifying impacts to the City's WRP.
• Confirm extended sewer collection system routing and alignment. • Select pipe sizes and material.
Task 2.1- Utility Investigations: Consultant's Surveyor (LCC) will survey the proposed alignment. LCC will establish survey control, provide aerial survey, and conduct supplemental ground surveys and mapping .
Work will also include locating and dipping existing septic tanks and clean outs . Existing utility research and right of way mapping have not been included in this scope but should be completed during preliminary design.
Consultant's Geotechnical Subconsultant (Crawford) will perform two geotechnical borings to a depth of 30-feet at the canal crossing location to validate the crossing method. Crawford will also provide information to assist in the BDR. Crawford will complete the following:
• Review available geologic and fault mapping;
• Review available groundwater data;
• Review existing geotechnical data including nearby Crawford sites; • Review USDA Web Soil Survey;
• Prepare a Preliminary Geotechnical Memo (Desktop Study) including project and site description; soil and groundwater conditions; key geotechnical considerations; seismic consideration including liquefaction potential, fault rupture, seismic settlement; preliminary grading recommendations including use of onsite material for backfill, potential for dewatering, etc; boring logs; existing exploration locations; and geologic and fault map. The Memo will include a figure that shows the AP Zone and potential areas for liquefaction in the vicinity of the alignment .
EXHIBIT A
86 EXHIBIT C-1
2.1 Assumptions:
• 4 days are provided as an allowance for dipping existing septic tanks and this task will be completed in consecutive working days.
• The City or County will contact property owners and send notifications in advance, coordinating access to the private properties, as necessary for LCC to perform the survey. • The City or County will have a representative on site and accompany LCC while on private property.
• Only readily accessible septic tanks will be surveyed.
Task 2.2 - BOD Workshops: Consultant will hold up to two, two-hour workshops to work through assumptions and present findings to the City. These workshops will be held as a hybrid meeting so necessary team members may attend . One of the workshops will be used to review the draft BOOR.
Task 2.3 - Simulate Updated Flows and Loading: Consultant shall evaluate the anticipated impacts to the City's existing Water Reclamation Plant (WRP) treatment capacity. Hydraulic, biological, and solids loading will be estimated for the extended sewer collection system and compared to the existing capacities at the WRP. Potential mitigation measures and/or capacity improvements will be identified with estimated implementation costs. Information for this task will be taken from the HydroScience Report.
Task 2.4 - Cost Evaluations: Consultant shall estimate construction costs and the cost to operate and maintain the added infrastructure . Consultant shall prepare a spreadsheet model to estimate revenue from connection fees and monthly service charges for the various land uses likely to connect to the new sewer. Consultant shall prepare short, mid and long-range revenue forecasts and identify potential operating deficits . Operating costs evaluated will be evaluated for the pumpstation . It is assumed that routine maintenance costs will be provided by the city based on their existing sewer maintenance program. The City will also provide connection fee and usage rate information for the evaluation .
Consultant shall analyze and compare a deep gravity line alternative with a lift station alternative for the reach on Tesla Road near Vasco Road. Analysis shall include lifecycle cost estimates for each alternative (permitting , right of way, construction, operation, maintenance, rehabilitation and capital replacement costs). Discuss pros and cons of alternatives addressing issues such as new connections and ease of maintenance .
Task 2.5 - BOOR: The BOOR will summarize all findings under this task and provide recommendations on the following :
• Confirm extended sewer routing and alignment
• Discharges to the extended sewer collection system compared to ongoing use of septic systems and land application
• Sewer conveyance solely via gravity pipelines compared to use of a lift station • Design criteria including pipe material, size, slope, connection type, and capacity • Proposed lift station location and capacity of equipment

CITY COUNCIL STAFF REPORT
ITEM NO. 6.5
DATE:
October 27, 2025
TO:
Honorable Mayor and City Council
FROM:
Tina Olson, Administrative Services Director
SUBJECT:
Resolution accepting the FY 2024-25 Year-End Budget Report, allocating the General Fund Surplus for various purposes, allocating surplus member contributions to Livermore-Pleasanton Fire Department (LPFD), appropriating additional budget to those funds that ended FY 2024-25 with expenditures in excess of budget, and appropriating additional budget in FY 2025-26
RECOMMENDED ACTION
Staff recommends City Council adopt a resolution accepting the FY 2024-25 Year End Budget Report, allocating excess General Fund monies for various purposes, allocating surplus member contributions to the Livermore-Pleasanton Fire Department (LPFD) Workers Compensation Fund, appropriating additional budget to those funds that ended FY 2024-25 with expenditures in excess of budget, and approving supplemental appropriations in four funds for FY 2025-26 expenses.
DECISION TYPE
Administrative
SUMMARY
The report summarizes the unaudited actual results of the financial activities from FY 2024-25, and details carryover of previously appropriated but unspent funds, and allocating excess General Fund resources to City's asset replacement and repair reserves as well as Internal Service Funds reserves for operations, Livermore-Pleasanton Fire Department (LPFD) workers compensation fund reserves. The report also recommends approval of other supplemental appropriations for FY 2025-26 expenditures.
DISCUSSION
The year-end budget report for Fiscal Year 2024-25 is attached as Exhibit A to the resolution. The combined unaudited General Fund balance is
$58.0
million. Of that, $44.3 million are the operating
reserves equal to 30% of operating expenses consistent with the City’s General Fund Reserve Policy. As described in more detail in Exhibit A, staff recommends allocating the FY 2024-25 General Fund surplus 121
of $8.1 million to various purposes including various operating and capital reserves. Staff requests allocating excess member contributions to Livermore Pleasanton Fire Department to be contributed t o
the LPFD Worker’s Compensation Fund reserves ($644,628). Staff further requests supplemental budget appropriations of $682,246 from various funds to cover FY 2024-25 budget shortfalls. These allocations occur before the final audit to incorporate the allocations into the City’s balance sheet and Annual Comprehensive Financial Report (ACFR). Historically, the ending balances have not materially changed as a result of the audit. Finally, staff requests supplemental appropriations from four funds for FY 2025-26 expenditures totaling $571,001.
As noted above, this information is unaudited. The audited information will be included in the City’s ACFR and will be presented to the City Council once the City’s independent auditor has issued its opinion on the ACFR, which is expected to happen by December 31, 2025. If there are any differences in the financial information presented in this report and the ACFR because of the audit, those changes will be highlighted at the time the ACFR is presented to the Council for acceptance.
FISCAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE IMPACTS
There is no direct fiscal impact in accepting the Year-end Budget Report for the year ended June 30, 2025. As described in Exhibit A, staff is recommending allocating $8.1 million of the General Fund surplus to various purposes,
allocating excess member contributions to LPFD workers comp funds ($644,628), recommending supplemental budget appropriations of $682,246 to cover FY 2024-25 budget
shortfalls and finally approve a supplemental appropriation of $571,001 across four funds for FY 2025-26 expenses.

FY 2024-25 Year End Budget Report
S
UMMARY
This report presents the results of operations from the FY 2024-25 Budget (Budget) and recommends allocations of the General Fund surplus as well as other budget adjustments. This information is unaudited. The audited information will be included in the City’s Annual Comprehensive Financial Report (ACFR) and will be presented to the City Council once the City’s independent auditor has issued its opinion on the ACFR, which is expected to happen by December 31, 2025. If there are any differences in the financial information presented in this report and the ACFR, those changes will be highlighted at the time the ACFR is presented to the Council for acceptance.
FINANCIAL STATEMENT
Staff’s recommendations include ratification of Council’s actions since the last approved budget adjustment (on June 9, 2025), allocating the General Fund surplus to various purposes as outlined in this report, increasing appropriations in various funds to cover shortfalls, and appropriating funding in the FY 2025-26 budget for a couple of items that were not included in the original FY 2025-26 budget. The combined unaudited General Fund balance is $58.0 million. Of that, $44.3 million are the operating reserves equal to 30% of budgeted operating expenses consistent with the City’s General Fund Reserve Policy. In addition, as described in more detail below, staff is recommending allocating the $8.1 million FY 2024-25 General Fund operating surplus to future purposes identified in Table 2. These allocations occur before the final audit to incorporate the amounts and purpose into the City’s balance sheet and ACFR.
Historically, the ending balances have not materially changed because of the audit.
BACKGROUND
The year-end financial report (Report) summarizes the actual results of FY 2024-25 financial activities and details changes in reserves. The City’s Annual Comprehensive Financial Report (ACFR) is still in progress; therefore, the financial information included in this Report is based on unaudited figures. The audited information will be included in the ACFR once the City's independent auditor has issued its opinion. Any changes to the information presented in this Report because of the audit will be brought to the City Council at that time.
DISCUSSION
The following discussion addresses the General Fund followed by a summary of all other funds.
General Fund
As shown in Table 1, FY 2024-25 actual revenues were greater than the budget by $3.1 million or 2%. Transfers in/out (net transfers) were $511.7 thousand or 2.9% greater than the projected budget and operating expenditures were $5.5 million or 3.9% less than the projected budget.
Overall, inflows of cash exceeded outflows of cash by $8.1 million. The net result is an operating surplus of $8.1 million. A detailed explanation of these variances is included in Tables 2, 3, 4 and 5 in this Report.
EXHIBIT A
127
2 Estimated General Fund Surplus: Table 1 above shows the sources and uses for the General Fund. At the end of FY 2024-25, the unaudited numbers show an estimated surplus of approximately $8.1 million - actual revenues less expenses.
As described in Table 2 below, staff is recommending allocating the anticipated surplus of $8.1 million to various contractual services ($2.0 million), various internal services funds ($1.8 million), the Capital Improvement Program (CIP) Reserve to be available for future capital projects ($1.9 million), and the Unallocated Reserves for future operating reserve requirements ($2.4 million). The $2.0 million for contractual services includes (1) carryforward contract encumbrances ($1.5 million), (2) additional contribution for Human Services grants ($100,000) for each year of the FY 2025-27 two-year budget, and (3) a one-time citywide network upgrade in the Information Technology Fund ($250,000).

3 General Fund Revenues: As described in Table 3 below, General Fund actual revenues were greater than the amended budget by $3.1 million or 2.1%. Table 3 presents the major revenue categories with a comparison of the projected budget versus actual revenues and the variance between the two. The following describes the significant variances.
Property Tax revenues are the General Fund’s largest revenue source, accounting for approximately 39.9% of total actual revenues. In FY 2024-25 actual property tax collections including all categories of property related taxes were $106,252 greater than the projected amount of $60.6 million.
Sales and Use Tax revenue is the General Fund’s second largest revenue source, accounting for approximately 25.7% of the total actual revenues. FY 2024-25 actual sales and use tax revenue was $3.5 million or 8.2% less than projected amount of $42.6 million due to relatively reduced sales tax receipts compared to FY 2023-24. The shortfall is due to (1) Costco’s new store opening in Pleasanton drawing sales from Livermore (2) fluctuations in Gillig’s sales (3) high interest rates tampering larger purchases such as vehicles, and (4) reduced confidence in the economy.
Business License Tax revenue decreased by $623,915 from the budget of $10.5 million likely due to reduced compliance efforts. In FY 2023-24 the City entered a new contract with Neumo (previously called Avenu Insights & Analytics) to handle the City’s business license renewals processing and compliance research. The initial year and transition happened extremely quick due to timing of the contract and renewal schedule. The second season of renewals occurred in Table 2. Summary of Allocations of FY 2024-25 General Fund Surplus FY 2025-26 Appropriations Amount
Contractual Services:
Carryforward Contract Encumbrances $1,533,088

4 FY 2024-25 which Neumo was mainly focused on business license renewals. Neumo is now beginning their compliance review to ensure all businesses in Livermore pay their respective business license tax. Approximately 800 businesses have been identified in this process. As such, City staff anticipates an increase in compliance and related revenues in FY 2025-26.
Other Taxes revenue category increased by $1.2 million, driven by three main areas:
• R eal property transfer tax was $529,125 or 40.7% less than budget. This tax is collected when properties transfer ownership such as selling a home. The ongoing higher interest rates throughout FY 2024-25 likely slowed property sales. • Hotel Occupancy Tax revenue was short by $889,726 or 20.1%. Staff is planning on conducting an audit on the TOT revenue in the next year to ensure compliance. • Industrial Construction Tax and Residential Construction tax together exceeded the budget by $2.6 million or 4.2% due to increase in construction permits which more than offset the reductions in the other two areas.
Licenses and Permits revenue increased by $3.5 million or 82.7% due to increased revenue from various permits, including building ($1.4 million), fire ($907,168), hazmat ($700,980) and use and variance permits ($314,304) related to increased construction in Livermore.
Charges for Current Services increased by $1.2 million due to an increase in Engineering Inspection and Filing fees as well as Plan Check fees as development continues throughout the City.

5 General Fund Expenditures. Actual General Fund operating expenditures were less than the projected budget by $5.5 million or -4.1%. Total expenditures, including transfers out, show an overall reduction of $5.4 million or -3.5%
Table 4 shows the major expenditure categories with a comparison of anticipated expenses from the amended budget to actual expenditures and the variance between the two. The following describes the significant variances.
Wages and Benefits expenses were less than the projected budget by $2.7 million or -3.6% due to attrition savings in FY 2024-25.
Services and Supplies were $2.8 million or 4.6% less than the projected budget. Contractual services were $1.2 million less than the projected budget across all General Fund programs.
There were other savings in the following categories rounding out the remainder of the savings.
1. Supplies and Equipment expenses: $647,533, 22.2% savings
2. M iscellaneous Expenses: $578,386, 17.0% savings
3. Repair and Maintenance expenses: $405,662, 14.0% savings
Transfer of Funds. As shown in Table 5, net transfers were $511,747 or 2.9% greater than the projected budget. The Downtown Revitalization Fee payments are recorded on the balance sheet and do not affect the budget. This year the City received a $69,526 payment for the Downtown Revitalization fund. The Library Foundation Grant did not occur as anticipated as staffing is currently directly charged to that grant. The transfer out to the Lighting and Landscaping Districts (LL&D) was also larger than expected due to additional contribution from the City to the Downtown LL&D as maximum allowable assessments have been levied against the parcels benefitting from the various improvements and expenses exceeded those assessments.

7 General Fund Balances and Allocations. Table 6 presents the proposed allocations to and changes in the General Fund Reserves. Actual Operating Reserves are $44.3 million or 30% of budgeted expenditures. The City’s policy is to maintain General Fund reserves equal to 30% of operating expenses. The $8.1 million allocations to be used in FY 2025-26 are for various carryforward contractual services ($1.5 million), one-time appropriations ($450,000), Internal service fund reserves ($1.8 million), and an allocation to CIP Reserves ($2.4 million) previously identified in Table 2. The $2.7 million remaining unallocated reserve in FY 2024-25 after allocations will be available to cover reserve requirements in the FY 2025-26 and 2026-27 budget.

8 General Fund Contributions to the Livermore Pleasanton Fire Department. The Livermore Pleasanton Fire Department (LPFD) budget had a net surplus of $644,628 associated with attrition savings, contractual services savings, and less equipment reserve expenses. The City funds LPFD through its Services and Supplies budget and has contributed the required contribution amount as budgeted.
Rather than receiving a refund on the excess contributions, staff from the member agencies, City of Pleasanton and City of Livermore, propose that each city use its respective $322,314 budget savings to increase reserves in the LPFD Workers Compensation fund to cover increased Claims Payable liabilities and be available to fund future Workers Compensation claims payments. See Table 7 below.
The following tables include all the City’s other funds in their respective categories. Fund balances are based on unaudited actual revenues and expenditures.
Enterprise Funds As described in Table 8 below, the City’s Enterprise Operating Fund balance showed a reduction of $11.3 million over the year, which is mainly due to a change in capital project expense recording. Beginning in FY 2024-25, staff set up capital project funds to record CIP revenues and expenses separately from operating expenses in the City’s new financial system. As a result, operating funds now transfer funding to CIP funds rather than including the capital project directly in the operating fund budget. Thus, unused capital project funding accumulates in the capital funds instead of the operating funds.
The following funds have significant variations.
The Airport Fund (F600) ended the year with a fund balance of approximately $1.1 million greater than projected. Revenues were greater than projected by approximately $265,549.
Actual operating expenses came in $678,530 less than budgeted resulting in the higher than anticipated fund balance.
The Stormwater Fund (F610) ended the year with a fund balance of $3.5 million which is approximately $2.9 million less than projected. Actual revenues did not come in as planned with a $3.4 shortfall in revenue due to not receiving anticipated Federal funding. There were, however, expenditure savings of $943,267. This main driver of savings was in Wages and Benefits ($407,392) and Contractual Service ($427,844). The remaining savings were seen throughout the other expense categories.
The Wastewater Fund (F620) ended the year with a fund balance of $31.0 million which is relatively unchanged from the beginning of the year. Revenues came in higher than expected by $1.4 million and expenditures were less than anticipated by $1.3 million. Attrition savings of Table 7: Surplus Contributions to LPFD

9 $839,195 are the main reason for the reduced expenses. Other significant savings were seen in the supplies, equipment, repairs, and maintenance categories with savings of $310,663.
The Water Fund (F640) year-end fund balance of $8.7 million increased by $916,796 from the beginning of the fiscal year. Revenues were greater than expected by approximately $685,937 and expenditure savings of approximately $1.9 million resulted in an increased fund balance.
There were expense savings of $397,075 in Contractual Services and $956,025 in cost of sales.
The Wastewater Replacement Fund (F622) ended the year with a fund balance of $19.1 million, a decrease of approximately $14.5 million. Actual revenues were approximately $385,954 more than expected. A transfer out to the Capital Improvement Project Fund of $23.1 million drives the lower fund balance in the operating fund. The Contractual Services category had a savings of $241,526.
The Wastewater Connection Fee Fund (F623) ended the year with a fund balance of $6.2 million, an increase of $154,643 from anticipated. This can be attributed to higher than anticipated revenues of over $3.6 million due to increased construction in Livermore. Transfers to the CIP were $4.6 million.
The Water Replacement Fund (F642) ended the year with a fund balance of $28.3 million, which is approximately $1.4 million more than projected. Actual revenues were approximately $401,693 more than expected while operating expenses were less than originally projected by approximately $332,882. There were savings of $282,901 in the Contractual Service category.
Transfers to the CIP were $3.9 million.
The Water Connection Fees Fund (F643) ended the year with a fund balance of $1.3 million.
Revenues were higher by $1.3 million due to increased residential construction. There were expenditure savings of $135,494 in the Contractual Services category.
Table 8: Enterprise Funds
Capital Project Operating Funds as described in table 9 below, there was a decrease in total fund balances of $23.3 million or -17.1% over the fiscal year. As previously stated, the Capital Improvement Program budget was separated from the operating budget and placed into its own set of funds to record activity. Funding was transferred from operating funds to CIP funds, which is the main reason that the table shows a decrease of $23.3 million in overall fund balance in Fund Fund Name

10 the Operating Capital Project funds. The following are the funds with additional significant variances.
Traffic Impact Fee (F510) ended the year with a $6.2 million increase in fund balance compared to the budget. The main driver for this was higher than anticipated revenues by $6.2 million as construction has increased in FY 2024-25.
TVTC 20% Fee (F511) ended the year with $3.9 million less in fund balance than what was budgeted. Revenues expected for this fund did not materialize as was anticipated.
Park Fee – AB1600 (F512) ended the year with a fund balance $1.2 million higher than projected. Revenues came in $1.2 million more than projected due to increased construction.
Expenses were close to anticipated which resulted in higher fund balance than projected during the budget preparation.
Transferable Development Credit (F582) ended the year with a fund balance of $4.7 million less than projected. Revenues came in $3.4 million less than projected and expenses were $1.3 million greater than budgeted to purchase the Goecken Road property.

11 Special Revenue Funds as described in Table 11 below showed an overall increase in total fund balances of $8.9 million or 20.6%. As previously noted, in FY 2024-25 capital project budgets were moved to separate respective CIP funds to track CIP activity. This is shown as a transfer to the CIP from the operating funds. Some of the City’s Special Revenue Funds fund capital expenses. The following are the funds with significant variations.
Low Income Housing Fund (F200) actual expenditures for Contractual Services were $4.3 million less than anticipated due to the timing of the numerous new Housing Developments.
SOEF Social Op Endowment Fund (F202) Revenues this year exceeded the budget by $627,932. This revenue is attributable to developer fees included in a development agreement with Trumark Homes.
Local Housing Trust Fund (F207) is a newly created fund in FY 2024-25. Revenues of $5.0 million in form of a grant from the State of California for the Pacific Avenue Senior Living Project. This project broke ground late in FY 2024-25.
Downtown Revitalization Fee Fund (F280) has a $3.5 million negative fund balance due to an outstanding loan from the General Fund to the Downtown Revitalization Fee Fund. The City uses all Downtown Revitalization fees collected to repay the loan, which results in a reduced negative fund balance. In FY 2024-25, the City collected $69,526 in Downtown Revitalization Fees.
Community Benefit Fund (F291) is a newly created fund in FY 2024-25. This fund will be used to fund economic, climate resilience, community programs, and public spaces and facilities.
Funding for this comes from Development Agreements. This fund received $629,085 in funding from a Development Agreement with Trumark Homes in FY 2024-25.

13 Internal Service Funds, as described in Table 12 below, had an overall increase in total fund balances of $2.4 million or 9.9%. The following are the funds with significant variations.
General Liability (F700) ending the year with a $548,157 increase in actual fund balance primarily due to $376,808 less expenses than originally anticipated.
Worker’s Comp Insurance (F710) had an increase in the fund balance of $3.3 million. The projected ending fund balance was $1 million less than the actual ending balance, which is due to actual expenditures coming in less than the budget by $955,286.
Fleet and Equipment Services (F730) had a decrease in the actual fund balance of $990,592.
However, the ending fund balance is $1.8 million greater than the budgeted amount due to actual expenditures less than budget by $1.7 million. This is mainly due to the delay between ordering new vehicles and the time that they are received.
Facilities Rehabilitation Program (F740) ended the fiscal year $562,242 less in fund balance due to the use of fund balance to help pay for capital projects.

14 Capital Improvement Program Funds are included in the table below show the balances available for CIP projects. These are the City’s new CIP funds previously discussed. City staff also separated the General Fund Capital Reserves into its own separate fund - General Fund Capital Reserve Fund (Fund 101) - and therefore no longer resides in the General Fund operating fund. The Operating Capital Reserve Fund is grouped under the Operating Capital Funds as shown in Table 9. These balances are shown as funding and expenses for the CIP program. Three funds shown in the table below have negative unaudited fund balances at the end of FY 2024-25. While the expenses occurred in FY 2024-25 for those three funds, City staff anticipate receiving the outside funding reimbursements in FY 2025-26.

15 Appropriation of Expenditure Budget to Cover Shortfalls At the end of the FY 2024-25 some funds had expenditures more than budget. Table 14 below shows the affected funds and the over-expenditure. Below Table 14 includes an explanation for the over-expenditures.
Table 14: Appropriations to Cover FY 2024-25 Expenditures Over Budget
Host Community Impact Fee (F282) incurred $26,088 more expenses in contracts, supplies, and equipment categories than budgeted.
City Street Sweeping Fund (F283) incurred more expenses in contracts, supplies, and equipment categories than what was anticipated.
Other LMD Fund (F311) spent more than the budget primarily due to increased expenses for utilities and contractual services
Staff are requesting appropriation from the Host Community Impact Fee, City Street Sweeping Fee, and Other LMD funds in the amount of $682,246 to cover the three funds’ over- expenditures in FY 2024-25.
Table 15: Supplemental Appropriations for FY 2025-26
The City is conducting PFAS testing at the Airport. The expenses related to the PFAS testing should be charged to the Airport Fund. Staff did not anticipate those charges during the original FY 2025-26 budget process. As such, staff requests a supplemental appropriation of $300,000 from the Airport fund to pay for these services. In addition, the City must pay attorney fees of $271,001 associated with a recent water and sewer related settlement that were not budgeted.
Those costs will be shared by the Water, Sewer and General Liability funds.

CITY COUNCIL STAFF REPORT
ITEM NO. 6.6
DATE:
October 27, 2025
TO:
Honorable Mayor and City Council
FROM:
Tina Olson, Administrative Services Director
SUBJECT:
Resolution approving the City of Livermore Salary Plan to reflect salary increases to Executive Management (excluding Police Chief) and the City Manager effective November 17, 2025, and minimum wage increases effective December 29, 2025.
RECOMMENDED ACTION
Staff recommends the City Council adopt a resolution approving the City of Livermore Salary Plan to reflect salary increases to Executive Management (excluding Police Chief) and the City Manager effective November 17, 2025, and minimum wage increases effective December 29, 2025.
DECISION TYPE
Administrative
SUMMARY
Staff recommends the following changes to the Salary Plan:
1 .
Incorporate wage related adjustment for the City Manager based on the new contract amendment;
2 .
Incorporate wage related adjustments for the Executive Management classifications (excluding the Police Chief);
3 .
Incorporate minimum wage increase to $16.90 per hour for the following classifications:
Department Assistant (Class Code 8200), Field/Maintenance Aide (Class Code 8205), Law Clerk (Class Code 8210), Library Aide (Class Code 8215), and Police Cadet (Class Code 8220)
DISCUSSION
Staff recommends the following changes to the Salary Plan:
1 .
The City Manager's existing contract follows the Livermore Management Group (LMG) cost of living adjustment, resulting in a 6% salary increase effective November 17, 2025. 143
2 .
Salary adjustments for the City's executive management classifications (excluding the Police Chief) have followed the increases received by the Livermore Management Group (LMG). LMG received a 6% wage adjustment in July. The recommendation is for the City's executive management classifications to receive a 6% wage adjustment effective November 17, 2025. In addition, currently, all five of the City's department heads have the same salary range, which does not adequately reflect the differences in the amount of responsibility, degree of risk, or the required expertise associated with each position. The proposed salary ranges are designed to recognize and address these differences and ensure compensation is aligned with the distinct demands of each position. Additionally, the Assistant City Manager salary increase maintains the 10% supervisory differential required by the City's Compensation Policy. 3 .
On August 1, 2025, the California Director of the Department of Finance certified that based on the annual inflation rate from 7/1/2024 to 6/30/2025, under Labor Code section 1182.12(c)(3)(A), the state hourly minimum wage must be increased effective January 1, 2026 to $16.90 per hour. The minimum salaries for the classifications of Department Assistant, Field/Maintenance Aide, Law Clerk, Library Aide, and Police Cadet will increase from $16.50 to $16.90 per hour effective December 29, 2025. There are currently 31 employees affected by this increase.
FISCAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE IMPACTS
The fiscal impact of these changes is approximately $191,500, which will be absorbed in the current budget.

CITY COUNCIL STAFF REPORT
ITEM NO. 7.1
DATE:
October 27, 2025
TO:
Honorable Mayor and City Council
FROM:
Brent Smith, Community Development Director
SUBJECT:
THIS PREVIOUSLY NOTICED ITEM HAS BEEN CONTINUED TO THE NOVEMBER 24, 2025 CITY COUNCIL MEETING
Hearing to consider a request to approve a Planned Development (PD) 25-001, Subdivision (SUB) 20-004, and Site Plan Design Review (SPDR) 21-001 to allow a two- story, attached, 13-unit multi-family, townhome-style development located at 3541 East Avenue.
RECOMMENDED ACTION
Planning Commission and staff recommend the City Council:
1 .
Adopt a resolution finding the project is Categorically Exempt under the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) per Section 15332, In-Fill Projects, and Direct the Planning Manager to file a Notice of Exemption in accordance with the provisions of CEQA, subject to project approval;
2 .
Adopt a resolution approving Subdivision (SUB) 20-004 and Site Plan Design Review (SPDR) 21- 001 for the development located at 3541 East Avenue; and 3 .
Introduce an ordinance
and waive the first reading authorizing Planned Development (PD) 25- 001.
DECISION TYPE
Legislative
SUMMARY
The applicant proposes to demolish an existing single-family home and develop the approximately 0.62- acre site with 13 attached two-story townhouse style units and one attached Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU). The project will consist of all rental units that would be grouped on one lot. The project will include one unit for rent to a very low-income (50 percent of Area Median Income) household consistent with the City's inclusionary affordable housing policies.
The project site is located at the southeast corner of East Avenue and Dolores Street (see Attachment 3 168
- Location Map). The project provides two garage parking spaces per unit and four uncovered onsite guest spaces, including one van-accessible space. Approximately 50 percent of the on-site landscaping will include California native plants with a total of 22 trees planted around the site.
The proposed project includes the following entitlements:
Planned Development (PD) 25-001 would establish new residential development standards based on the T4 Neighborhood (T4N) and replace the existing default Planned Development zone.
Subdivision (SUB) 20-004 (Tentative Parcel Map 11527) would merge the existing two parcels into one parcel and secure public improvements, including a $50,000 contribution for intersection improvements.
Site Plan Design Review (SPDR) 21-001 would ensure the architecture and landscape design of the project complies with the City’s Design Standards and Guidelines (DSG).
DISCUSSION
PROJECT SITE CONTEXT
The site is surrounded by existing residential development, including single-family development to the east and west, multi-family to the south, and a mix of single and multi-family residential to the north. The applicant proposes to combine the two parcels into one single parcel. The project site is approximately one mile away from Downtown Livermore, located near multiple public transit stops, and has access to public services and utilities.
The Planning Commission staff report summarizes the existing and surrounding land uses (see Attachment 1).
PROJECT DESCRIPTION AND STAFF ANALYSIS
General Plan
The General Plan designation for the subject site is Urban High Residential (UH-2). The UH-2 designation allows a density range of 8 to 14 units per acre and is seen in the central and outlying areas of the City. Townhouses and duplex housing types are common under this designation. The General Plan allows residential density to be based on a district-wide basis (Livermore General Plan Land Use Element, p. 3-10). The current density of the surrounding neighborhood is 12.7 units per acre. The proposed project will increase density in this area to approximately 13 units per acre. Thus, district-wide density will remain within the permitted density range of the UH-2 designation.
Zoning
The project site is currently zoned Planned Development (PD), which requires the project adhere to default residential zoning standards or adopt a development-specific Planned Development District tailored to the site. Generally, a Planned Development District is intended for development projects that require more flexible development standards that allow the project to address site constraints in a manner that could not be achieved in a conventional zone. A Planned Development zone must conform to the requirements of the General Plan.
169
Multifamily development of 14 units or less under the PD zone is required to conform to either the Multiple Family Residential (MFR) or T4 Neighborhood (T4N) Zone, whichever is closest to the project density. The proposed project most closely aligns with the T4N Zone, making it the default zone for the project.
The proposed PD standards are compatible with the surrounding residential neighborhoods. The proposed standards maintain a cohesive transition between the existing residential neighborhood and the project site through site planning, use of setbacks and separations, design features, and landscape design. The PD prescribes precise frontage design types, setbacks, building height and width maximums for the townhome style buildings. This eliminates the possibility to expand the townhomes through building additions (building additions are uncommon for townhome projects).
The proposed PD standards differ from three T4N zoning standards. The proposed variations are described below:
The T4N zone limits building height to 35 feet within the front 90 feet of the property (measured from the East Avenue right-of-way) and to 24 feet in height beyond 90 feet. The 24-foot height limit applies to the southeast corner of unit 8 which is approximately 28 feet in height. Unit 8 exceeds the 24 foot maximum height limit at the rear of the lot. The proposed PD would allow the 35-foot height limit to extend back to accommodate the height of unit 8.
The project includes porches and stoops which are a required frontage type in the T4N zone. The porches are required to provide a minimum depth of eight feet. The T4N zone allows a maximum encroachment of five feet into the setback for a porch or a stoop. The second variation would allow the proposed porches along Dolores Street and East Avenue to encroach eight feet into the setback. The encroachment will allow the project to meet the minimum porch depth and provide usable private open space.
The Townhouse Building Type (LDC section 5.01.090) limits the width of the main building body for each unit to 36 feet. Units 1 through 12 comply with this standard but Unit 13, which includes an ADU, is 44 feet wide and exceeds the maximum allowed building width. The third variation removes the unit width limitation.
Staff supports the requested variations. The rectangularly shaped corner lot makes it difficult to construct a building at the rear of the lot and comply with the T4N rear lot height standard. Furthermore, the southern edge of the property adjoins landscape and a private circulation driveway for the residential community to the south.
An eight-foot encroachment into the setback is desirable along Dolores Street and East Avenue to meet the minimum porch depth requirement per the Development Code (LDC section 4.03.050). The encroachments allow each street-facing unit to have a usable porch. The porches also add detailing and human scale to the architecture while maintaining a five-foot minimum setback to accommodate landscape.
The excess building width for unit 13 allows the construction of an ADU and provides additional housing.
The PD allows development flexibility and permits the requested variations.
Additional Design Features
170
For each proposed variation from the default zoning, the Livermore Development Code (LDC section
3.04.030.J.1) requires Residential Planned Developments to provide an added design feature that is proportional to the degree of variation from the default zoning. The City only considers a design feature that exceeds what is otherwise required by the City or by the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). Examples include:
• Public features not generally available in the neighborhood of a standard zoning district • Provision of public, neighborhood amenities
• Diversification of building sizes and types, increased landscaping, or extraordinary architecture
The proposed project meets the Planned Development design feature requirements. The project includes increased landscaping on-site of which approximately 50% are native to California. The proposed architecture is of high quality and incorporates design features as recommended by the Design Standards and Guidelines.
SUBDIVISION
The project entitlements include a Tentative Parcel Map to combine the two individual parcels into one parcel in conformance with Part 10 of the Livermore Development Code (Government Code and the Subdivision Map Act, by reference). The purpose of the City’s subdivision ordinance is to regulate the division of land consistent with the Livermore General Plan and facilitate orderly development of the community. The applicant is the owner of both parcels. A parcel line between the two parcels will be removed to merge the lots.
The development would increase the need for public utilities that would be maintained by the City.
However, the site has access to public utilities, including water and sewer. Furthermore, the project would be required to pay for the increase in public services at the time of Building Permit issuance and through user fees.
Site access from Dolores Street was evaluated by the Livermore Pleasanton Fire Department, Livermore Sanitation, and the Engineering Division for conformance with the applicable standards and deemed adequate to maintain health and safety.
The East Avenue Corridor Project and the Active Transportation Plan (ATP) describe the future improvements to the intersection of East Avenue and Dolores Street, including bulb-outs and medians, permanent traffic-calming measures, and bike and pedestrian improvements. In accordance with the ATP, these improvements are installed in conjunction with development projects. The applicant will contribute $50,000 towards these improvements representing its fair share of the improvements required by the East Avenue Corridor Project, which contribution will be due prior to Final Map approval. This figure is based on the project's linear foot frontage to the East Avenue Corridor Project, which in total is estimated to cost $3.45 million.
SITE PLAN DESIGN REVIEW
Site Plan and Design Review (SPDR) 21-001 evaluates the development’s site layout, building architecture, and landscape design. The site plan uses the site efficiently and creates an active 171
streetscape that relates well to the pedestrian walkways and adjacent buildings. The development includes two main buildings oriented to provide appropriate spacing and positioning to promote pedestrian connectivity, maintain privacy and use the site efficiently. The building facing Dolores Street displays strong design character and is visually compatible with the existing development to the south.
The characteristics of the development such as height, massing, setbacks, materials, and architectural style improve and complement the surrounding area. The project design enhances the views for the public from East Avenue and Dolores Street. Units 1 through 8 have access to usable private open space in their back yards along the eastern edge of the site. Units 9 through 13 have front yards and usable front porches. The individual garages are accessed by a common drive aisle located behind the residential structures that face the public street. This achieves the Design Guidelines goal of minimizing views of garages (DSG, Residential Standards, p.128).
The proposed architecture and materials reflect traditional architecture prevalent in the older sections of Livermore, south of downtown. Materials include traditional horizontal lap siding and stucco, wood posts, and a combination of stone and brick wainscoting. The building forms employ a variation of façade articulation to distinguish the attached dwelling units from one and other. In addition, the architecture wraps façade treatments to the street facing sides of the buildings which creates an inviting presence.
The project includes appropriate site planning, building massing, vertical and horizontal articulation, the use of conventional elements and materials, and neutral color palettes that are consistent with the Residential Design Standards and Guidelines (DSG pgs. 129 -130, 133, 140).
The landscape design creates an inviting streetscape that enhances the neighborhood. The landscape plan provides a hierarchy of plantings with a variety of low to medium water usage trees, shrubs and groundcover consistent with the Design Standards and Guidelines and the Water Efficient Landscape Ordinance. Two existing trees at the northwest corner of the site will be removed and approximately 22 trees of various species would be distributed throughout the development. Approximately 50% of the plant material is native to California.
Parking and Traffic
Parking is provided in attached garages consistent with the Livermore Development Code (Chapter 4.04:
Parking Standards) at a ratio of two required parking spaces per unit, plus one guest space for every four units. The project provides three guest spaces near the driveway entrance and one van-accessible ADA space at the end of the drive aisle. A condition of approval would require a red curb and installation of a "No Parking" sign along Dolores Street to allow future traffic calming improvements.
TJKM Consultants prepared a transportation assessment for the project (see Attachment 6). The assessment includes a trip generation and vehicles miles traveled (VMT) analysis in addition to an on- site circulation and access evaluation. The assessment concludes that the project will generate 88 average daily trips during a typical weekday which is below the VMT screening threshold of 110 daily trips. Therefore, the project does not require a VMT analysis. The project will generate 6 trips in the morning peak hours between 7 a.m. to 9 a.m. and 7 trips in the evening peak hours of 4 p.m. to 6 p.m.
Additionally, the assessment concludes the on-site circulation and site access is adequate for the project.
Public Art
172
Pursuant to Livermore Municipal Code section 12.51, residential development projects are required to provide (or fund) public art in a manner that benefits the public and contributes to the public’s understanding, enjoyment and experience of cultural diversity. The applicant proposes to pay the in-lieu fee established by the Municipal Code to satisfy the public art requirement.
Solid Waste
Each unit will have containers for trash, recycling, and green waste. Each unit has an attached garage where the containers will be stored. The containers will be collected from the internal drive aisle.
Livermore Sanitation reviewed and approved the site layout.
Affordable Housing
The applicant proposes to rent all 13 units in the development. The applicant would be required to enter into an affordable housing agreement that will be recorded on the property. The agreement will identify one unit as affordable to a very low-income household (50 percent of Area Median Income).
ENVIORNMENTAL DETERMINATION
Section 15332 of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines exempts in-fill development projects in urbanized areas. The exemption applies to the proposed project. Additional analysis is provided in the Planning Commission staff report (see Attachment 1).
PLANNING COMMISSION
On June 17, 2025, the Planning Commission reviewed the proposed project and recommended approval to the City Council with a 4-1 vote. No public comments were received at the meeting.
During the meeting, the Commission discussed a recommendation to require dedication of right-of-way (ROW) along the project frontage on East Avenue to accommodate a future bike lane as part of the Active Transportation Plan (ATP). However, the ATP has not established a project-level design to identify specific ROW needs for bike lane construction on East Avenue. Consequently, the City does not have a nexus to require the dedication. Right-of-way dedications are typically guided by an adopted implementation plan; however, the East Avenue Corridor Study does not yet have an implementation plan for on-street bicycle lanes.
Staff is currently evaluating multiple options for installing bike lanes on East Avenue as part of the East Avenue Corridor Study. Public outreach conducted during the study revealed no community consensus on a preferred design. The outreach process did not include ROW acquisition as an option. Additionally, requiring ROW from the project would further impact building placement, proposed porch setbacks resulting in the removal of a significant amount of landscaping, and could negatively affect the pedestrian environment.
Implementation of the first phase of the
East Avenue Corridor ATP Implementation, (CIP TB202222 - Pedestrian Bulb Outs & Bike Boulevard Improvements) includes bike and pedestrian improvements at key intersections based on the pilot project, and implementation of a bike boulevard that traverses east and west in the neighborhoods north of East Avenue. The intersection improvements and bike boulevard are scheduled to start construction in summer 2026.
The ATP is expected to be updated following
173
completion of the General Plan.
PUBLIC COMMENT
Staff received three public comments for the project (see Attachment 7).
FISCAL IMPACTS AND ADMINISTRATIVE IMPACTS
Staff time allocated to land use entitlement review are offset by required entitlement application fees. The incremental increase in demand for water, sewer, and stormwater services will be offset by required impact fees and utility connection fees. Consistent with Livermore’s practice, onsite water and sewer lines would be maintained by the City and Cal Water, which would be covered by user fees. In addition, the project will contribute $50,000 towards future intersection improvements at East Avenue and Dolores Street. The project, therefore, will have no significant fiscal or administrative impacts.

ECOMMENDED ACTION
S
taff recommends the Planning Commission adopt resolutions recommending the City Council:
1. Find the project is Categorically Exempt under the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) per Section 15332, In-Fill Projects, and Direct the Planning Manager to file a Notice of Exemption in accordance with the provisions of CEQA, subject to project approval; and
2. Approve Subdivision (SUB) 20-004 and Site Plan Design Review (SPDR) 21-001; and
3. Adopt an Ordinance authorizing Planned Development (PD) 25-001
DECISION TYPE
S
UMMARY
The applicant proposes to demolish the existing single-family home and develop the approximately 0.62- acre site with 13 attached two-story townhouse units and one attached Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU).
The project will consist of all rental units that would be grouped on one lot. The proposal includes a traditional architectural style adapted to the townhome product type. Unit sizes range from approximately 1,400 square feet to approximately 1,900 square feet with the option of three or four bedrooms. Each unit will have an attached two-car garage. The project will include one unit for rent to a very low-income (50% of Area Median Income) household.
The project site is located at the southeast corner of East Avenue and Dolores Street (see Attachment 1 ATTACHMENT 1
176
- Location Map). Four guest parking spaces, including one accessible space, would be located on-site.
Approximately 50 percent of the on-site landscaping will include California native plants with a total of 22 trees planted around the site including a variety of shrubs, grasses, perennials, succulents, and subshrubs.
The applicant will reconstruct the curb, gutter, and sidewalk along the project frontages (East Avenue and Dolores Street), construct a new driveway to provide access to the site from Dolores Street, and underground all electric and communication lines along the project frontage.
The applicant has agreed to contribute $50,000 towards intersection improvements at East Avenue and Dolores Street. The Engineering Division is working on multiple active and planned Capital Improvement Projects (CIP) along East Avenue. The contribution could be used for corridor improvements such as permanent traffic calming measures or bike and pedestrian enhancements. The improvements will be completed at a later date as part of a CIP.
The proposed project includes the following entitlements:
Planned Development - Residential (PD) 25-001 would establish new residential development standards based on the T4 Neighborhood (T4N) and replace the existing default Planned Development zone.
Subdivision (SUB) 20-004 (Tentative Parcel Map 11527) would merge the existing two parcels into one parcel, establish property lines and site layout, and secure associated public improvements.
Site Plan Design Review (SPDR) 21-001 would ensure the architecture and landscape design of the project complies with the City’s Design Standards and Guidelines (DSG).
DISCUSSION
PROJECT SITE CONTEXT
The project site is generally flat and consists of two legal parcels. The applicant proposes to combine the two parcels into one single parcel. An existing single-family home is located on the property including several recreational vehicles and a storage container. The existing house will be demolished, and the recreation vehicles and storage container will be removed from the site.
The site is surrounded by existing residential development, including single-family development to the east and west, multi-family to the south, and a mix of single and multi-family residential to the north. The project site is approximately one mile away from Downtown Livermore, located near multiple public transit stops, and has access to public services and utilities.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION AND STAFF ANALYSIS
General Plan
The General Plan designation for the subject site is Urban High Residential (UH-2). The Urban High Residential designation accommodates the highest range of residential densities in the City. It allows a density range of 8 to 14 units per acre and is seen in the central and outlying areas of the City.
Townhouses and duplex housing types are common under this designation. The General Plan allows residential density to be based on a district-wide basis (Livermore General Plan Land Use Element, p. 3- 10). The current density of the surrounding neighborhood is 12.7 units per acre. The proposed project will increase density in this area to approximately 13 units per acre. Thus, district-wide density will remain within the permitted density range of the UH-2 designation.
Zoning
The project site is currently zoned Planned Development (PD), which requires the project adhere to default residential zoning standards or adopt a development-specific Planned Development District tailored to the site. Generally, a Planned Development District is intended for development projects that require more flexible development standards that allow the project to address site constraints in a manner that could not be achieved in a conventional zone. A Planned Development zone must conform to the requirements of the General Plan.
Multifamily development of 14 units or less under the PD zone is required to conform to either the Multiple Family Residential (MFR) or T4 Neighborhood (T4N) Zone, whichever is closest to the project density. The proposed project most closely aligns with the T4N Zone, making it the default zone for the project.
The proposed PD standards for the project are compatible with the surrounding residential neighborhoods and conform to the size and shape of the site. The proposed standards maintain a cohesive transition between the existing residential neighborhood and the project site through site planning, use of setbacks and separations, design features, and landscape design. The PD prescribes precise frontage design types, setbacks, and building height and width maximums for the townhome style buildings. This eliminates the possibility to expand the townhomes through building additions (building additions are uncommon for townhome projects).
The proposed PD standards differ from three T4N zoning standards. The proposed variations are described below:
ATTACHMENT 1
178
1. The T4N zone limits building height to 35 feet within the front 90 feet of the property (measured from the East Avenue right-of-way) and to 24 feet in height beyond 90 feet. The 24-foot height limit applies to the southeast corner of unit 8 which is approximately 28' in height. Unit 8 exceeds the 24 foot maximum height limit at the rear of the lot. The proposed PD would allow the 35-foot height limit to extend back to accommodate the additional building height but complies with the overall maximum height limit of 35 feet to accommodate unit 8.
2. The project includes porches and stoops which are a required frontage type in the T4N zone. The T4N zone allows a maximum encroachment of 5 feet into the required setback for a porch or a stoop. The second variation would allow the proposed porches along Dolores Street and East Ave to encroach 8 feet into the setback. The encroachment will allow the project to meet the required minimum porch depth of 8 feet and provide usable yard and open space within the required setback. All porches will maintain the minimum required setback of five feet.
3. The Townhouse Building Type (LDC 5.01.090) limits the width of the main building body for each unit to 36 feet. Units 1 through 12 comply with this standard but Units 13, which includes an ADU, is 44 feet wide and exceeds the maximum allowed building width. The third variation removes the unit width requirement.
Staff supports the requested variations. The rectangularly shaped corner lot makes it difficult to construct a building at the rear of the lot and comply with the T4N rear lot height standard. Furthermore, the southern edge of the property adjoins landscape and a private circulation driveway for the residential community to the south.
An eight-foot encroachment into the setback is desirable along Dolores Street and East Avenue to meet the minimum porch depth requirement per the Development Code (LDC 4.03.050). The encroachments allow each street-facing unit to have a usable porch. The porches also add detailing and human scale to the architecture while maintaining a five-foot minimum setback to accommodate landscape.
The excess building width for unit 13 allows the construction of an ADU and provides additional housing.
The PD allows development flexibility and permits the requested variations. The following standards apply to this project:

For each proposed variation from the default zoning, the Livermore Development Code (LDC
3.04.030.J.1) requires Residential Planned Developments to provide an added design feature that is proportional to the degree of variation from the default zoning. The City only considers a design feature that exceeds what is otherwise required by the City or by the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). Examples include:
ATTACHMENT 1
180
• Public features not generally available in the neighborhood of a standard zoning district • Provision of public, neighborhood amenities
• Diversification of building sizes and types, increased landscaping, or extraordinary architecture
The proposed project meets the Planned Development design feature requirements. The project includes increased landscaping on-site of which approximately 50% are native to California. The proposed architecture is of high quality and incorporates design features as recommended by the Design Standards and Guidelines. Additionally, the applicant has agreed to provide a monetary contribution of $50,000 for intersection improvements for the benefit of the public.
SUBDIVISION
The project entitlements include a Tentative Parcel Map to combine the two individual parcels into one parcel in conformance with Part 10 of the Livermore Development Code (and Government Code and the Subdivision Map Act, by reference). The purpose of the City’s subdivision ordinance is to regulate the division of land consistent with the Livermore General Plan and facilitate orderly development of the community. The applicant is the owner of both parcels. A parcel line between the two parcels will be removed to merge the lot.
The lot layout and configuration establish the footprint size of the two buildings and enable clustering consistent with the intent of the Planned Development District. The project has access to public utilities including water and sewer. The development would increase the need for public utilities that would be maintained by the City. The project would be required to pay for the increase in public services at the time of Building Permit issuance and through user fees. Site Access (ingress and egress) from Dolores Street was evaluated by the Livermore Pleasanton Fire Department, Livermore Sanitation, and the Engineering Division for conformance with the applicable standards and deemed adequate to maintain health and safety.
SITE PLAN DESIGN REVIEW
Site Plan and Design Review (SPDR) 21-001 proposes the development’s site layout, landscape design, and building architecture.
Site Plan
The site plan establishes efficient building orientation and logically relates to the street, pedestrian walkways, and adjacent buildings. The development includes two main buildings oriented to provide appropriate spacing and positioning to promote pedestrian connectivity, maintain privacy and use the site efficiently. The building facing Dolores Street displays strong design character and is visually compatible with the existing development to the south. The characteristics of the development such as height, massing, setbacks, materials and architectural style improve and complement the surrounding area. The project design enhances the views for the public from East Avenue and Dolores Street.
Units 1 through 8 have access to usable private open space in their back yards along the eastern edge of the site. Units 9 through 13 have front yards and usable front porches. The Design Standard and Guidelines (p.128) encourage small-lot development building entries to be located on the front facade and have direct access to a sidewalk. The project meets the intent of this standard with porches and ATTACHMENT 1
181
entries facing a public street.
The individual garages are accessed by a common drive aisle located behind the residential structures that face the public street. This achieves the Design Guidelines goal of minimizing views of garages (DSG, Residential Standards, p.128). The proposed site plan achieves the following overall goals for residential design set forth in the Livermore Residential Design Standards and Guidelines (p.120):
Provide high quality housing for all sectors of the housing market
Response: The project provides high quality townhome-style rental units with floor plans and sizes that will diversify the mix of housing types and densities of the surrounding area and accommodate the diverse demands of the housing market.
Decrease the visual prominence of the automobile and related facilities, such as streets and parking areas, in residential neighborhoods.
Response: The project provides attached garages for each unit that are accessed via a shared drive aisle. The internal drive aisle is located behind the row of townhomes fronting along Dolores Street.
Encourage a harmonious development pattern that respects and responds to the character of the surrounding built and natural environments
Response: The development would be appropriately setback from the existing residential developments to the east and south.
Architecture
The proposed architecture and materials reflect traditional architecture prevalent in the older sections of Livermore, south of downtown. They include cross-gabled roof forms and individual porch elements for each unit. Materials include traditional horizontal lap siding and stucco, wood posts, and a combination of stone and brick wainscoting. All doors and windows are wrapped in wood trim which gives them a shadowed, recessed definition. Finally, gabled façades are further detailed with faux vents and knee braces. The building forms employ a variation of façade articulation to distinguish the attached dwelling units from one and other. In addition, the architecture wraps façade treatments to the street facing sides of the buildings which creates an inviting presence. These architectural features and the articulation reduce the massing and create a human scale. The project includes appropriate site planning, building massing, vertical and horizontal articulation, the use of conventional elements and materials, and neutral color palettes that conform with the Residential Design Standards and Guidelines (DSG pgs. 129 -130, 133, 140):
Guidelines C.1.1.2. Building massing should be varied by employing a variety of techniques, such as recessed porches, bay windows, dormers and varying planes or setbacks. As appropriate to the style of the house, the roof forms should be varied. Roof forms to be employed include hipped roofs, gabled roofs, varying roof pitches, side-to-side gables, front-to-back gables or various combinations.
ATTACHMENT 1
182
Guideline C.1.1.3. Façade components should correspond to the scale of the human form. This is accomplished by visually breaking up façades into smaller components with elements such as windows, wall insets, balconies, ledges and trim and by stepping back upper stories.
Standard C.3.1.1. Façades shall be designed to include entries, porches and other architectural elements that relate to the human scale.
Standard C.8.1.1 The form, color and texture of the roof should be an integral part of the building design and compatible with both the natural and built settings.
Standard C.8.1.2 Roofline variations may be used to demarcate primary building entrances.
Building fronts and entrances break down the mass of the structure consistent with the Design Standards and Guidelines. Windows are generally vertical and related in design, recessed or framed, to add relief and further articulate the wall plane.
Standard C.4.1.2 Windows shall be used as architectural elements that add relief to the façade and wall surface.
Guideline C.4.1.5 Windows should be vertically oriented, in order to relate to the human form, unless horizontal windows are appropriate to the style, or are necessary in the particular application.
Standard C.1.2.8 Accentuating the ground floor of the building by making it thicker or more substantial visually than upper stories.
The project style utilizes a distinct and a varied palette of materials including brick, stone, stucco, and lap siding. The proposed colors vary in tone, ranging from light, medium and darker earth tones. The color scheme is compatible with each other and the project setting in conformance with the City’s Design Guidelines (DSG p140):
Guideline C.7.1.1. Exterior building colors should be compatible with the surrounding neighborhood setting and should be in keeping with the geographic and climatic conditions specific to Livermore.
Guideline C.7.1.2. Accent colors should be used to enhance details such as trim.
Front Porches
In the Transect Zones, the townhouse building type is required to have either a porch or stoop frontage treatment. The project provides porches on all street-facing units and stoops on all units that face the internal driveway. The front porches comply with the required frontage standards. The PD provides flexibility by allowing an eight-foot encroachment into the setback to comply with the required minimum width and depth for porches.
Parking and Traffic
Parking is provided in attached garages consistent with the Livermore Development Code (Chapter 4.04:
ATTACHMENT 1
183
Parking Standards) at a ratio of two required parking spaces per unit, plus one guest space for every four units for multiple family residential projects. The project provides two stalls per unit for a total of 26 spaces (the total minimum required). The project provides three guest spaces near the driveway entrance and one van-accessible ADA space at the end of the drive aisle. A condition of approval would require a red curb and installation of a "No Parking" sign along Dolores Street to allow future traffic calming improvements.
TJKM Consultants prepared a transportation assessment for the project (see Attachment 4). The assessment includes a trip generation and vehicles miles traveled (VMT) analysis in addition to an on- site circulation and access evaluation. The assessment concludes that the project will generate 88 average daily trips during a typical weekday which is below the VMT screening threshold of 110 daily trips. Therefore, the project does not require a VMT analysis. The project will generate 6 trips in the morning peak hours between 7 a.m. to 9 a.m. and 7 trips in the evening peak hours of 4 p.m. to 6 p.m.
Additionally, the assessment concludes the on-site circulation and site access is adequate for the project.
Landscape
The landscape design creates an inviting presence and includes elements that contribute positively to the neighborhood. The landscape plan provides a hierarchy of plantings with a variety of low to medium water usage trees, shrubs and groundcover consistent with the Design Standards and Guidelines. Two existing tree at the corner of the intersection will be removed and approximately 22 trees of various species would be distributed throughout the development including: red maple, western redbud, desert willow, Catalina ironwood, and dwarf Italian cypress. Shrubs, grasses, and groundcovers include a variety of manzanita, sage, moor grass, and westringia. Most of the proposed plant palette consists of low or medium water usage species consistent with the Water Efficiency Landscape Ordinance (Livermore Municipal Code 13.25).
The proposed street trees will be Red Maple and Catalina Ironwood on East Avenue and Ginkgo Tree on Dolores Street. These trees provide shade and are appropriate as street trees with a broad canopy range between 20-35 feet. Per the Design Standards and Guidelines (section 6.D.1.4.1.b) the street trees will be minimum 24-inch box.
Public Art
Pursuant to Livermore Municipal Code section 12.51, residential development projects are required to provide public art in a manner that benefits the public and contributes to the public’s understanding, enjoyment and experience of cultural diversity. Typically, development projects are encouraged to integrate art into the site plan and landscape design. At this time the applicant is proposing to pay the in- lieu fee established by the Municipal Code to satisfy the public art requirement. In-Lieu Fees are used by the Arts Commission to contract, design, and install various forms of art across the city in prominent locations for the broader community to enjoy.
Solid Waste
Each unit will have containers for trash, recycling, and green waste. Each unit has an attached garage where the containers will be stored. The containers will be collected from the internal drive aisle.

Jurisdiction: City of Livermore
Subject: 3541 East Avenue – Transportation Assessment (Update) The purpose of this memorandum is to present the results of the updated transportation assessment evaluating the proposed development at 3541 East Avenue, consisting of a parcel of land located at the southeast corner of the intersection of East Avenue and Dolores Street, in Livermore, California.
This memorandum is meant to update and s upersede a previous Technical Memorandum prepared for the same site titled “East and Dolores Traffic Study” dated November 9 th, 2020. The
Year 2020 transportation assessment consisted of the evaluation of the development of the project site to consist of 9 mult i-family residential units. The updated transportation assessment evaluates the development with an increase in the number of multi-family residential units from 9 units to 13 units.
The Year 2020 memorandum documenting the assessment of the project site with 9 multi-family residential units is included in Attachment 1.
This updated transportation assessment includes a trip generation, vehicle miles traveled (VMT) analysis, an onsite circulation evaluation, and ac cess analysis. These evaluations are aimed to address the following:
ATTACHMENT 6
223
3541 East Avenue – Transportation Assessment (Update) June , 2025
2 1. Identify whether the project would result in any significant VMT impact based on OPR’s screening methods.
Per the Technical Advisory published by the Governor’s Office of Planning and Research (OPR), a quantitative VMT assessment forms the basis of the CEQA analysis for a proposed project. Effective as of July 1, 2020, inters ection LOS can no longer be used to determine significant impacts for CEQA purposes.
The OPR guidelines include the fo llowing screening criteria for identifying projects that can be presumed to have a less-than-significant impact:
x Within a Transit Priority Area, depending on applicability; x Within a designated low VMT area; or,
x Local Serving Projects.
Local serving projects include K-1 public schools, local parks, daycare centers, retail facilities of less than 50,000 SF, non-destination hotels, student housing, assembly uses, community institutions, locall y serving community colleges, affordable or supportive housing, assisted living facilities, senior housing, or projects generally generating less than 110 average daily trips (ADT).
To estimate trips generated by the proposed development for the weekday morning (AM) and weekday afternoon (PM) peak periods as well as for weekday daily trips, TJKM utilized the published trip generation rates from the Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE) Trip Generation Manual, 11th Edition, and consistent with the methodology published in ITE’s Trip Generation Handbook, 3rd Edition.
TJKM used published trip rates for the ITE Land Use Code 220 (Multifamily Housing – Low- Rise) to establish the proposed land uses.
The trip generation is shown in Table 1, the Project is calculated to generate approximately 88 ADT during a typical weekday, including 6 AM peak hour trips (1 In / 5 Out) and 7 PM peak hour trips (4 In / 3 Out).
Therefore, since the project trip generation re sults in 88 ADT (lower than the OPR’s VMT screening threshold of 110 ADT), the Project is screened out from a VMT analysis.

2. Provide on-site circulation analysis.
As shown in the project site plan included in Attachment 2, the Project provides one two- car garage for each of the thirteen (13) pr oposed units. In addition, there are three (3) guest parking spaces planned to be located adjacent to the project site entrance and one (1) van-accessible parking space on the northern side of the planned development.
On-site circulation is planned to consist of an internal street that will connect with the project driveway forming an L-shaped pathwa y for users. The internal street will run parallel to the housing units and will have a dead-end on the northern side of the project site. This internal street wi ll be used only by residents and potential guests/visitors who may need to venture into the dead-end area.
Therefore, on-site circulation is anticipated to be adequate for the planned uses.
3. Provide queueing analysis at any project driveway on Dolores Avenue if left-turn-in movement is allowed.
For the evaluation of queueing at the pr oject access driveway, TJKM has referenced a previous Technical Memorandum prepared to evaluate the traffic growth along East Avenue titled “Traffic Growth Percentage Along East Avenue” dated May 26th, 2020.
In the referenced memorandum, an evaluation of various methodologies to establish traffic growth around East Avenue was conducted.
ATTACHMENT 6
225
3541 East Avenue – Transportation Assessment (Update) June 9, 2025 4 One of the methodologies consisted of comparing Year 2016 and Year 2018 AM and PM peak hour counts for the intersection of East Avenue at Dolores Street. The comparison yielded a growth rate of -9.4% for AM peak hour traffic and 0.2% for PM peak hour traffic.
A separate methodology consisted of comparing the Alameda County Transportation Commission Year 2010 and Year 2040 travel demand models for the segment along East Avenue adjacent to Livermore High School. This comparison yielded an annual growth rate of 1.34%.
TJKM proceeded to reference the Year 2018 peak hour traffic data for the intersection of East Avenue at Dolores Street and the application of a 1.34% annual growth rate over the span of 7 years to calculate baseline Year 2025 peak hour traffic volumes at the intersection.
Figure 1 shows the AM and PM peak hour volumes of the intersection of East Avenue at Dolores Street for Year 2018 conditions and the calculated baseline volumes for Year 2025.
Figure 1: East Avenue at Dolores Street Year 2018 and Year 2025 AM and PM Peak Hour Volumes ATTACHMENT 6
226
3541 East Avenue – Transportation Assessment (Update) June , 2025
5 Using the calculated Year 2025 peak hour volumes, TJKM proceeded to reference these volumes to estimate the volumes along Dolores Street at the Project driveway location.
The volumes at the Project driveway location were estimated as follows:
¾ For NB traffic along Dolores Street: the sum of the NB-L, NB-T, and NB-R volumes at the intersection of East Avenue at Dolores Street.
¾ For SB traffic along Dolores Street: the su m of the WB-L, EB-R, and SB-T volumes at the intersection of East Avenue at Dolores Street.
Following the methodology outlined above, TJKM estimated the NB-T and SB-T volumes along Dolores Street at the Project driveway location.
A 95 th percentile queueing analysis was condu cted to analyze queueing at the Project driveway location considering a Project driv eway with a general-purpose configuration allowing right-in/right-out movements as well as left-in/left-out movements.
Following the latest HCM methodology and utilizing the Synchro 12.0 software package, TJKM conducted an AM and PM peak hour que ueing evaluation at the Project driveway location.
With the addition of Project traffic (referenced from the calculated Project trip generation as shown in Table 1), and assuming a trip distribution of traffic where 80% of Project traffic travels to and from the north of the Project driveway and 20% of Project traffic travels to and from the south of the Project driveway, queueing at the Project driveway location was conducted and analysis result worksheets are included in Attachment 3. The queueing analysis at the Project driveway location is observed to result in the following:
AM Peak Hour:
¾ NB Approach (Dolores St.): queue length = 0 vehicles
¾ SB Approach (Dolores St.): queue length = 0 vehicles
¾ WB Approach (driveway): queue length = 0 vehicles
PM Peak Hour:
¾ NB Approach (Dolores St.): queue length = 0 vehicles
¾ SB Approach (Dolores St.): queue length = 0 vehicles
¾ WB Approach (driveway): queue length = 0 vehicles
ATTACHMENT 6
227
3541 East Avenue – Transportation Assessment (Update) June , 2025
6 Therefore, as shown in the AM and PM peak hour assessment of the intersection of Dolores Street at the Project driveway, 95th percentile queues during an average peak hour are anticipated to be on average minimal, if any.

To: Joanna Liu
From:
Chris D. Kinzel, P.E.
Vice President
Subject: East and Dolores Traffic Study
The proposed nine unit development is located in the southeast quadrant of East Avenue and Dolores Street. These are responses to your questions:
x Identify whether the project would result in any significant VMT impact based on OPR's screening thresholds
The nine unit project would generate fewer than 90 trips per day. OPR suggests projects generating fewer than 110 daily trips may be screened out from VMT analysis. Therefore, no further analysis is needed.
x Provide on-site circulation analysis
The project provides one two-car garage for each of the nine units. In addition, there are three guest stalls near the entrance. On-site circulation is dead-end but only the residents will need to venture into the dead-end area. Guests will either park near the entrance on-site or on-street. Many on-street parking stalls are available. The circulation is adequate.
x Provide queuing analysis at any project driveway on Dolores Avenue if left-turn-in movement is allowed.
The project driveway is located about 175 feet south of the East Avenue intersection stop bar. The project generates two southbound inbound trips in the a.m. peak hour and seven southbound inbound trips in the p.m. peak hour. In the morning Dolores has 114 northbound trips and 93 southbound trips. Two entering vehicles against 114 approaching vehicles should produce practically no queuing.
ATTACHMENT 6
230
VISIONTHATMOVESYOURCOMMUNITY
In the afternoon peak the seven inbound trips (one every 8+ minutes on average) encounter 147 northbound vehicles plus there are 118 southbound vehicles. The estimated ADT is 2,400 vpd on Dolores. With these volumes little, if any, queuing issues can be expected on Dolores near the entrance to the project.
Please contact me if there are questions about these matters.
