Dear Councilmembers,
With respect to the Design Review code amendments, while I appreciate the interest in efficiency, please be sure the proposed changes are not at the cost of maintaining adequate review in a manner that allows for sufficient notification to those impacted and general public awareness. The proposed changes move aspects of review to an administrative role and away from the Planning Commission. Less time in planning does not generally achieve the best outcome.

Subject: Proposed e-bicycle and e-scooter ordinance is legally deficient and should not be adopted Date: Sunday, June 29, 2025 9:34:48 PM
I'm not a resident of Los Altos, but I visit your downtown almost every week, and I sympathize with the City's concern over reported discourteous and potentially unsafe behavior by operators of bicycles, e-bikes, e-scooters, and other low-speed devices on streets and sidewalks downtown and elsewhere. Nonetheless, state and local regulation of bicycles is something I happen to know a lot about (having written several of those statutes myself, and also consulted as an expert witness), and I have to inform you that the ordinance that the Council approved on June 24, and which is tentatively set for second reading and adoption on July 8, is unintentionally overbroad, lies in large part outside the City's authority to enact, and may therefore turn out to be invalid and unenforceable. This matter should most definitely be referred to the City Attorney for study before any further action, including final adoption, is taken.

Here I'll set out the reasons for these statements, and then indicate what actions I believe the City may still properly take. I realize that not everyone will want to wade through all this technical detail. The bottom line is that state law strictly limits the extent to which the City can regulate traffic, and this ordinance greatly exceeds those limits. But there are other effective steps the City can take instead, which you can read about below, and narrower ordinances that would pass legal muster.

Preemption
California Vehicle Code §21 states:

Except as otherwise expressly provided, the provisions of this code are applicable and uniform throughout the state and in all counties and municipalities therein, and a local authority shall not enact or enforce any ordinance or resolution on the matters covered by this code, including ordinances or resolutions that establish regulations or procedures for, or assess a fine, penalty, assessment, or fee for a violation of, matters covered by this code, unless expressly authorized by this code.

This doctrine, known as preemption, means that cities may not enact ordinances on any subject covered by the Vehicle Code--regardless of whether they do or do not conflict with that code, supplement it, or even substantially or fully duplicate its language--unless expressly authorized. This principle has been repeatedly and firmly upheld by the courts, e.g., Rumford v. City of Berkeley (1982) 31 Cal.3d 545, 550, and is strictly construed. "[A] city's police powers do not extend to control of vehicular traffic on its streets; that field has been preempted." (At p. 553.)
I understand that you may find this situation surprising and frustrating, but I would hope that, just as the City rightly expects road users to follow applicable law, the City Council itself would set a good example by following applicable law.

Among the matters covered by the Vehicle Code are operation on the highway of bicycles, electric bicycles (e-bikes), e-scooters (motorized scooters), electric personal assistive mobility 8 devices (EPAMDs, often referred to by the brand name Segway), electrically motorized boards (i.e., electric skateboards), low-speed vehicles (also known as neighborhood electric vehicles), and potentially other unspecified similar regulated mobility devices, as defined in the proposed ordinance. Confusingly, state laws governing these various devices were adopted at different times and for different purposes, and may therefore be incomplete or inconsistent with each other (or scattered in various parts of the Vehicle Code). Local authority to regulate these devices also varies, so no single ordinance may be able to regulate them all in a uniform way.

The Vehicle Code and Powers of Local Authorities
How does the Vehicle Code regulate these devices, and what powers, exactly, do local authorities have with respect to each? (The staff report and previous presentations have already summarized a portion of this information.)
Bicycles: Under §21200, operators of bicycles have all the rights and are subject, with a few exceptions, to all the provisions applicable to the driver of a vehicle by Division 11 of the Vehicle Code, Rules of the Road. Chapter 1, Article 4 of that division contains other special rules applicable to bicycles.

The staff analysis asserts that "CVC 21100(3) and 21207 permit local agencies to restrict the operation of bicycles and e-bicycles," and the ordinance's preamble states that "California Vehicle Code Sections 21100 and 21206 authorize the City of Los Altos to regulate the use of bicycles, electric bicycles, and other regulated mobility devices." There is no §21100(3), but §21100(h) allows local regulation of bicycling on sidewalks. §21206 permits local registration of bicycles and the parking and operation of bicycles on pedestrian or bicycle facilities (i.e., sidewalks and paths; legislative history makes it clear that this authority does not extend to bicycle lanes on the roadway, but in the interest of brevity I'll pass over those details for now). §21207 deals with establishing bicycle lanes on the roadway. These provisions do not provide the broad regulatory power that the City appears to be asserting, by either location or type of device. (There are several other local powers that aren't relevant to this discussion.) Electric bicycles: E-bikes are considered a type of bicycle (§§231, 312.5), and all the considerations cited above apply. In particular, §21207.5 allows local authorities to permit or prohibit electric bicycles on off-road paths.

Motorized scooters: Chapter 1, Article 5 covers operation of motorized scooters (the term includes both electric and gas-powered scooters (§407.5)). Their operators, like bicyclists, have the rights and are subject to the provisions applicable to vehicle operators, and there are additional operating and equipment requirements.

The City does have some latitude to regulate motorized scooters. §21225 permits local authorities to regulate motorized scooter registration and their parking and operation on pedestrian or bicycle facilities and local streets and highways, if that regulation is not in conflict with the Vehicle Code. §21230 permits local prohibition of motorized scooters on bicycle paths or trails or bikeways; the term "bicycle trail" is undefined, but "bikeway" is sufficient to cover all classes of bicycle facilities (Streets and Highways Code §890.4). As a rule, motorized scooters may not operate on roads with a speed limit above 25 mph, except in a Class II or Class IV bikeway, or on sidewalks; §21235 lets cities relax the roadway restriction to 35 mph (though I don't think that's what Los Altos wants to do). Motorized scooters are subject at all times to a speed limit of 15 mph (§22411). 9 EPAMDs: Operators are considered pedestrians (§467). These devices are regulated in Chapter 1, Article 6. §21281.5 requires operating at a safe speed that does not endanger the safety of persons or property. §21282 permits local authorities to regulate the time, place, and manner of their operation, including limiting, prohibiting entirely in the local jurisdiction, or prohibiting use in specified areas as determined to be appropriate by local entities.

Electrically motorized boards: Continuing in the same sequence, electrically motorized boards are regulated in Chapter 1, Article 7. The rules of the road for electrically motorized boards are unclear; they appear to fall under the definition of "vehicle" in §670 and would therefore be subject to vehicular regulations, though their own definition in §313.5 does not use that word. Article 7 also refers to operating upon a highway. In any case, operators must be 16 or older and must wear helmets. They are restricted to roads with a speed limit of 35 mph or less, unless operated within a Class II or Class IV bikeway, and must themselves not exceed 15 mph. §21967 permits local authorities to prohibit or restrict electrically motorized boards on highways, sidewalks, or roadways.

Low-speed vehicles: See Chapter 1, Article 5.5. Low-speed vehicles are subject to the provisions applicable to motor vehicles. With certain exceptions, they're limited to roads with a speed limit of 35 mph or less. §21266 lets local authorities restrict or prohibit their use.

Validity of the Ordinance
As I've said, the ordinance attempts to regulate disparate classes of devices in a uniform way, whereas its authority to do so varies. At this point, untangling these distinctions in detail would be excessive, and it's not my intent to rewrite the ordinance. All that's necessary for now is to understand that it calls for further study and should not be adopted prematurely. To that end, let me point out a few problematic provisions insofar as they deal with bicycles:

8.32.020 (Applicability of State law; violations generally), including admonitions to exercise due care: preempted by state law.

8.32.040 (Riding in groups), 832.050 (Helmet Required), 8.32.060 (Trick riding), 8.32.080 (Number of riders per bicycle): preempted by state law. There is no authority for local regulation.

8.32.090 (Penalties for violations and enforcement): Preempted, since §40000.1 of the Vehicle Code establishes that it constitutes an infraction for any person to violate any local ordinance adopted pursuant to this code. §42001 specifies maximum fines for infractions (to which may be added penalty assessments and surcharges; for details, see the Santa Clara County Superior Court Traffic Bail Schedule). But note this important provision of §42001(d):
[A] local public entity that employs peace officers . . . may, by ordinance or resolution, establish a schedule of fines applicable to infractions committed by bicyclists within its jurisdiction. . . . If a bicycle fine schedule is adopted, it shall be used by the courts having jurisdiction over the area within which the ordinance or resolution is applicable instead of the fines, including penalty assessments and court costs, otherwise applicable under this code.

8.32.030 (Riding on sidewalks and pedestrian paths prohibited): This provision of the ordinance merits special attention. It appears to be valid for all the classes of device the City wants to regulate, but the exemptions in 8.32.110(d) give me pause:
10 "Any individual may operate a bicycle on the sidewalk if riding the bicycle on the street or designated bicycle lane would place that individual in an unsafe situation." This is highly subjective and will complicate enforcement. Furthermore, it seems to imply that sidewalks are safer than streets. While that may be true in specific situations, the bike-car collision rate on sidewalks has generally been found to be greater than on the adjacent roadway. Even leaving aside issues with pedestrians and street furniture, sidewalks expose bicyclists to unexpected conflicts with turning and crossing traffic at driveways and intersections, frequently with obstructed sight lines.
"The bicycle can be utilized on the sidewalk under the following condition.

1. The road is less than eleven (11) feet in width without a designated bicycle lane." Surely you mean the right-hand lane, or half the roadway on an unlaned roadway. And how is the presence of parked cars (and the need to leave clearance for potentially opening doors) to be accounted for?
"2. Debris blocks a dedicated bicycle lane, and it is the only means of getting around the hazard."
Debris would also have to block the roadway, which would be the normal alternative. "3. Vehicles are parked in the bicycle lane or utilizing it for turning movements at an intersection."
The second part raises particular concerns. Merging into the bike lane on the approach to a turning movement at an intersection is exactly what motorists are required to do by Vehicle Code §§21209 and 21717 (after yielding to bicyclists within the lane, according to §22107).

Note also the DMV Driver's Handbook: "Remember to . . . [e]nter a bike lane no more than 200 feet before starting a turn." Far from a hazard, this is a routine situation. This provision would encourage bicyclists to hop onto the sidewalk as they approach an intersection where a car is turning, unsafely placing them on the blind side of right-turning drivers who may be looking to their left for approaching traffic.
"4. The condition of the road has deteriorated to the point where it is unsafe for a bicycle to traverse through the area."
This sounds reasonable enough.
"5. Include traffic as a cause—traffic congestion or circulation, or other similar elements." This seems to be a placeholder, which, like language in other places in the ordinance, needs to be cleaned up before it can be properly enacted.

What the City Can Do
There are a number of actions the City can take to deal with perceived problems:

Bikes, e-bikes, e-scooters, and low-speed vehicles are subject, with a few exceptions, to the vehicular rules of the road, as apparently are electrically motorized boards.

Operators of EPAMDs are subject to pedestrian laws. The City already has full authority to enforce these laws, though I hope that would be done reasonably and judiciously, against flagrant or unsafe behaviors, and not hypercritically. Laws for bikes, e-bikes, and e-scooters about staying as far right as practicable or within Class II bike lanes, in particular, contain a number of relevant and common exceptions and should not be applied indiscriminately.
11 The City is also free to enforce the special rules for each type of device that I've cited above.

Meanwhile, the proposed ordinance language can be revised to take account of the issues I've raised.

Again, I want to emphasize that the ordinance in its current form is not suitable for adoption.

Please feel free to follow up with questions and comments. I'll be glad to respond to the best of my ability.

Sincerely,
Alan Wachtel

Subject: Council 07/08/2025 Meeting Future Agenda Item Request Date: Thursday, July 3, 2025 7:16:48 AM
Los Altos Mayor Dailey and Distinguished Council Members, Council 07/08/2025 Meeting Public Comment Item not on Agenda.

I request two future Consent Agenda Items:

Revise Los Altos Code Chapter 11.20 to include Residential Home Corner Lot Side Yard “Standard Shoulder Specifications SU3 to SU11&SU20ABC” and requirements for when they are to be used.

Approve Public Works “Standard Shoulder Specifications SU3, SU4, SU5, SU6, SU7, SU8, SU9, SU10, SU11, and SU20ABC” for improvements to residential home street shoulder. Council approval is a requirement of Los Altos Code Chapter 11:20.

Each specification needs to be listed to ensure any future changes require Council approval. That will also provide public and architect notice.

Los Altos has many residential homes on streets without curb and gutter. When a new or major increase in living space home is built on these lots, most times street shoulder must be upgraded to meet “Standard Shoulder Specifications SU3 to SU11&SU20ABC”. Application of these specifications will improve consistent neighborhood appearance, yard and driveway interface with street pavement, control stormwater runoff, pedestrian safety, tree root damage to street pavement, and environmental protection for stormwater runoff.

To best of my knowledge, only a few Standard Shoulder Specifications have been approved individually by Council, but never the 10 [SU3 to SU11&SU20ABC] current Standard Shoulder Specifications as a group. A very high percentage of residents and architects do not know they exist or where to find them on Los Altos Web Site. Many have a surprise when they apply for drawing approval. Even the new Los Altos Web site that lists several specifications, has errors like obsolete Standard Shoulder Specification drawings. Also, web site could be improved by listing “Standard Shoulder Specifications [SU3 to SU11&SU20ABC]” as a group and make it easier for home owner / architect to find.

Make this change and “orphan” SU20ABC would have a home and visibility.

Thank you for your consideration! Jim Wing, Milverton Road, Los Altos 13 From: Eric Muller

Subject: Public comment - 07/08/2025 City Council Meeting - Item 5 agreement with CivicPlus LLC Date: Monday, July 7, 2025 6:01:32 PM
Dear Concil members,
I find the current website for Parks & Recreation department registration unacceptable, and I object to the adoption of the resolution. Here are the reasons for my objection:

Clicking on the Class registration link on the city website pops an alert before redirecting to a commercial website:

Links to external, or third-party websites, are provided solely for visitors’ convenience. Following links to other sites is done so at your own risk and the owners of this website accept no liability for any linked sites or their content.

Any link from our site to an external website does not imply that we endorse or accept any responsibility for its use. It is important for users to take necessary precautions, especially to ensure appropriate safety from viruses, worms, trojans, and other potentially destructive items. Users should review the privacy policies of external websites and other terms of use to learn more about what, why, and how they collect and use any personally identifiable information.

Thank you for visiting and please come again.

Please wait to be directed to the selected URL in 2 seconds...

That pop up stay up for all of five seconds, with no obvious possibility of retaining it longer.

Clearly, it is not possible to read this popup in five seconds. It seems that the intent is more to make the city look responsible and virtuous, rather than inform and help users of the site.

Then it is rather comical that the city denies any responsibility for using a web site that displays the city seal, and is presumaby somewhat under the control of the city.

Then the registration website automatically and silently calls on a number of other websites, that one may or may not wish to interact with (I certainly don't):
audioeye dot com
bootstrapcdn dot com
cloudflare dot com
facebook dot net
google dot com
googleapi dot com
gstatic dot com
zdassets dot com
Without interacting with those sites, the registration site is completely unusable. In fact, one cannot even see the list of classes.

Then if one want to register for a class, one needs to create an account, and in doing so accept 14 the 19 + 13 + 39 + 20 = 91 pages of terms of use and privacy policies.

Finally, there is no indication that registration for classes is possible by other means, e.g. in person at the city hall.

Overall, I consider the current site unacceptable.

Subject: Adopt a Resolution to Amend the Noll & Tam Architects Agreement in the amount of $27,650 for Construction Administrative Services related to the Emergency Operations Center Project (CF-01021)

COUNCIL PRIORITY AREA
☐Business Communities
☐Circulation Safety and Efficiency

☐General Government

RECOMMENDATION
Adopt a Resolution authorizing the City Manager to amend the existing design contract with Noll & Tam Architects in the amount not-to-exceed $27,650, to provide expanded construction administrative services related to the Emergency Operations Center project.

POLICY QUESTION(S) FOR COUNCIL CONSIDERATION
None.

FISCAL IMPACT
The proposed $27,650 amendment would be funded from the available construction contingency budget. No additional budget is requested for this item.

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
This resolution is exempt from environmental review pursuant to Section 15061(b)(3) of the State Guidelines implementing the California Environmental Quality Act of 1970.

PREVIOUS COUNCIL CONSIDERATION
July 11, 2023 and March 26, 2024

DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS
Noll & Tam Architects was hired in May 2022 to design, prepare construction documents, garner permits, and provide limited construction administrative support for the Emergency Operations Center project. Their current total contract amount is $423,943. 31 Agenda Item # 4.

The construction of the Emergency Operations Center project commenced in Spring 2024. Since then, the Contractor, Architectural Design Team, and City have worked collaboratively to move the project close to completion. The Architectural Design Team allowed a limited number of hours in their original agreement for construction administrative services. That initial allowance has nearly been expended, working through unanticipated complexities in the generator and fuel system designs, additional regulatory permitting, existing utility conditions, and structural detailing for the generator enclosure. This contract amendment will provide the Architectural Design Team with enough hours to complete the final observations and inspections required.

The construction project is approximately 80% complete with an estimated completion in Fall of 2025. The generator enclosure has been constructed. The wiring between the generator and the Community Center building has been installed. The upgrades within the Community Center have been completed. The generator has been fabricated and scheduled to arrive in August 2025. The generator fuel system has been installed. And to date, the project has expended 13% of the approved $405,000 contingency budget.

City Council Agenda Report
Meeting Date: July 8, 2025
Prepared By: Jaime Chew
Approved By: Gabriel Engeland
Subject: Adopt a Resolution – Professional Services Agreement for Recreation Management Software

COUNCIL PRIORITY AREA
☐Public Safety
☐Business Communities
☐Circulation Safety and Efficiency
☐Environmental Sustainability
☐Housing
☒General Government

RECOMMENDATION
Adopt a resolution authorizing the City Manager to execute an agreement with CivicPlus LLC to provide CivicRec, a recreation management software, for the Parks & Recreation department registration and facility reservations.

FISCAL IMPACT
The following action will cost a total not to exceed $138,896 which will provide recreation management software services for three (3) fiscal years – FY 25/26, FY 26/27, and FY 27/28. The amount for this agreement is included in the annual Parks & Recreation department operating budget.

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
Not Applicable.

PREVIOUS COUNCIL CONSIDERATION
None

BACKGROUND
After an RFP process, in June 2020 the city of Los Altos executed a two (2) year agreement with CivicPlus LLC to provide the recreation management software CivicRec. Implementation and the system build occurred between August 2020 through March 2021, and the software launched publicly on March 22, 2021 for spring registration. At the October 25, 2022, regular meeting, City Council approved the three (3) year agreement extension, as staff had recommended continued use of the software based upon satisfaction with the platform’s performance, and the positive feedback from staff and the community.
35 Agenda Item # 5.

ANALYSIS
The CivicRec recreation management software continues to have great functionality, and be easy to use for staff and the community. Due to the time-consuming and costly nature of changing software systems, city staff recommends continued use of the CivicRec platform as the Parks & Recreation department has successfully used the software for the last five (5) fiscal years.

Additionally, city staff has surveyed both our comparable and surrounding Santa Clara County cities and have found that six (6) other agencies (Campbell, East Palo Altos, Gilroy, Los Altos Hills, Morgan Hill and Palo Alto) also utilize the CivicRec software.

DISCUSSION
The CivicRec recreation management software continues to effectively support class and activity registration both in person and online, facility reservations, expanded reporting, and a variety of communication options. The platform also has additional elements like AudioEye, which provides online accessibility tools, and modules like document management that make the software useful to both staff and the community. The CivicRec recreation management software is not only currently utilized by many of our comparable and neighboring Santa Clara County cities, but it continues to be a reasonably market-priced platform. Staff recommends City Council to adopt a resolution authorizing the City Manager to execute an agreement with CivicPlus LLC to provide CivicRec – a recreation management software in the amount not to exceed $138,896 for fiscal years 2025/26, 2026/27, and 2027/28 (3-year agreement) on behalf of the city. 36 Agenda Item # 5.

FINANCIAL POLICY

OVERVIEW
This document establishes policies of overall financial management, budget development, and fiscal administration for the City of Los Altos. Included herein are statements and principles designed to guide the City in maintaining its financial stability.

Formal adopted financial policies assist elected officials and staff in the development of fiscal management practices, save time and energy in making financial decisions, promote public confidence, and provide continuity over time. While these policies will be updated periodically, they provide the basic framework for many of the financial decisions that the City will address. They support long-term planning and enhance the City's effectiveness.

This document discusses the most important elements of financial management in one comprehensive centralized format and is organized into the following areas of discussion:
• General Financial Principles
• Operating Budget
• Capital Improvements Program
• Revenues
• Expenditures
• Cash and Investment Management
• Debt Management
• Fund Balances and Reserves
• Financial Reporting and Audit
• Internal Control of the Financial Enterprise System
• Annual Review and Update
• Exhibits

GENERAL FINANCIAL PRINCIPLES
It is the overall policy of the City of Los Altos to:
• Provide financial information in a relevant, thorough, timely fashion, and in a format that effectively communicates financial status to Council, citizens, and City employees. • Manage its financial resources in a responsible and planned manner. • Establish and maintain prudent fund balance levels.
• Maintain financial reporting in compliance with current governmental accounting standards. • Promote and implement a relevant and strong system of internal financial controls to manage significant risks and monitor the reliability and integrity of financial and operating reporting. • Promote constructive and proactive financial decision making. • Integrate long-term operating and capital resources planning. • Allow for uncertainties and maintain a posture of financial flexibility. • Develop programs in a manner that supports the City’s long-term ability to cover costs and provide the level and quality of service required by its citizens. • Manage debt responsibly.

FINANCIAL POLICY
• Establish and maintain investment policies in accordance with State law. •

OPERATING BUDGET
An annual operating The budget will be adopted by the City Council no later than June 30th of each year. The City Manager may develop and present a biennial budgetshall be adopted by the City Council no later than June 30 of each fiscal year. The City should strive to develop a multi-year financial plan (a five-year forecast) that is updated as part of the periodic budget process.

A balanced provisional operating budget will be presented to City Council for review and adoption.

A “balanced budget” means that recurring expenditures do not exceed recurring revenues. Total expenditures should not exceed total revenue plus available funds. Available funds may include the use of fund balances on hand. The city adheres to a structurally balanced budget in that ongoing revenues are matched to ongoing expenses and one-time or cyclical revenues cover one-time expenses to manage to a net zero or positive bottom line.

Funds may not be expended for a new fiscal year until the budget for that fiscal year has been adopted by City Council.

One-time revenue sources are not to be relied upon to fund ongoing operations.

Budgetary control is maintained at the fund level:
• The City Manager may make budget transfers between departments or programs as long as those changes do not increase overall appropriations within any one given fund. Transfers between funds, overall increases in fund appropriations, and overall increases in project budgets can only be made through City Council action. Transfers between departments should be reported to the City Council as part of the budget update process, either at mid-year or at the proposal of a new budget term
• Department heads are held directly responsible and accountable for developing and managing their operational budgets. Their level of control is held at the department level. Departments that operate programs among different funds are limited to the appropriation levels within any one fund.

Operating expenditure appropriations not spent during the fiscal year lapse at year- end, except for:
• Encumbrances or commitments, as in the form of finalized Purchase Orders, made during the fiscal year that have not been completed at year- end.
• Appropriations for capital improvement projects and ongoing grants with a life-cycle beyond one year.

Governmental funds use the modified accrual basis of accounting while proprietary and fiduciary fund types are budgeted on a full accrual basis of accounting. The Annual Comprehensive Financial Report (ACFR) presents City’s finances on a generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) basis and the City’s budget is prepared in conformance with these standards.

The City budget must comply with the annual determination of the City’s appropriations limit calculated in accordance with Article XIIIB of the Constitution of the State of California and adopt an annual resolution to this effect.

47 Agenda Item # 7.

FINANCIAL POLICY

CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT AND MAJOR MAINTENANCE PROGRAM
The City will develop and maintain a five-year capital improvement and major maintenance plan (CIMMP) to be updated annually in conjunction with the operating budget. The CIMMP should reflect the current and changing needs of the community as well as enhance the quality of the community’s quality of life.

All projects within the CIMMP are to be tracked systematically and reported to management quarterly.

CIMMP tracking reports should clearly display budget-to-actual performance by project, fund category and project status.

A capital program typically involves the purchase or construction of major fixed assets such as land, buildings and any permanent improvement including additions, replacements and major alterations having a long-life expectancy. Additionally, capital projects may apply to 1) expenditures that take place over two or more years and require continuing appropriations beyond a single fiscal year; 2) systematic acquisitions over an extended period of time or 3) scheduled replacement of specific elements of physical assets. Generally, only those items costing $10,000 or more are considered as capital projects. Vehicle s purchases will also be included in this program when a fleet replacement plan is established.

The City also identifies projects in the Major Maintenance Program each year. Those projects mainly apply to 1) up-grade and maintain all buildings at current, competitive standards; 2) address code and safety issues, mechanical, electrical and plumbing systems, exterior and structural shortcomings, cosmetics, and immediate landscape issues; 3) the dollars are not to be spent to alter buildings or to renovate; 4) dollars should extend the life of whatever is being corrected for cycle of life designated for the building (typically ten years).

Capital improvements that specifically benefit a select group of users and/or are fee- for-service based are to be financed through user fees, service charges, special assessments and taxes, or development impact fees.

Capital improvements that specifically benefit a fee-for-service enterprise operation (such as Sewer) are to be financed through the service fees generated within that operation and fund. Such fees should be supported by periodic updates to the related utility master plan.

Transfers of resources into the CIP fund will be evaluated on an annual basis dependent upon the existence of available surplus dollars.

The City should strive to maximize the use of capital grants and state subventions in funding capital improvements before tapping general revenue sources.

REVENUES
The City will strive to maintain a diversified and stable revenue base to minimize the impact of economic fluctuation.

The City will seek out, apply for, and effectively administer federal, state, and other grants that address the City’s current operating and capital priorities.

48 Agenda Item # 7.

FINANCIAL POLICY
Independent user-fee studies should be performed and updated periodically (three to five years) to ensure the proper balance of costs and service charges. The City should strive to cover the full cost of providing non-tax and discretionary fee-based service operations except to the extent that City Council approves defined subsidy levels by program area.

Operating departments are to review public services to identify and determine those appropriate for fee collection. Recommendations for new fees are to be presented to the City Council as fees are periodically updated.

Operating departments are to review existing fees periodically and recommend adjustments, if necessary, to ensure they reflect all direct and reasonable indirect costs of providing such services.

Enterprise operations will be self-supporting and shall reimburse the General Fund for any and all material and services provided on their behalf.
49 Agenda Item # 7.

FINANCIAL POLICY

EXPENDITURES
Expenditures are to be budgeted and controlled so as to not exceed estimated revenues plus the approved and planned use of fund balances accumulated in prior years.

The City will conduct a mid-year financial status review to determine if projected revenues and expenditures meet target levels. If an operating deficit is projected at year-end, the City should evaluate the need for immediate corrective and/or mitigating actions, including operating or capital expenditure reductions and/or activate the use of established contingency balances. The deferral of essential and scheduled operational expenditures into the following fiscal year or the use of shortterm loans and transfers to balance the budget should be avoided.

The City should implement a formal purchasing system, principles, and guidelines to ensure that expenditure levels are kept in check in the course of any fiscal year.

CASH AND INVESTMENT MANAGEMENT
The Financial Commission will review the City’s investment policy annually and make recommendations to the City Council when appropriate.

The responsibility of investing City funds rests with the Finance Director who is to exercise due diligence to adhere to the investment policy. The Finance Director will present to the City Council quarterly investment reports presenting a summary of the portfolio status and compliance with the conditions set forth in the investment policy.

DEBT MANAGEMENT
The City should plan the use of debt in a manner that sustains financing payments at manageable levels.

The City will seek to maintain a high credit rating through sound financial practices as a basis for minimizingto minimize borrowing costs.

The City will make every effort to use pay-as-you-go financing for capital improvement projects. Debt financing for a project can be used if the overall project cost exceeds anticipated available resources and/or if the cost of financing is favorable as compared to the use of City investment holdings over the financing term.

The City will monitor all forms of debt annually in conjunction with the budget preparation process and report concerns and remedies, if necessary, to City Council.

The City will diligently monitor its compliance with bond covenants.

The City will not issue long-term debt to finance current operations. Debt financing should only be used for long-term capital improvement projects with a useful life exceeding the term of the financing and for which the project revenues or specific identified revenue sources are sufficient to service the long-term debt.

FINANCIAL POLICY
The City will use a lease-purchase method of financing for equipment if the lease rates are more favorable than the City’s expected overall investment rate of return.

The City will not incur general obligation indebtedness for public improvements which exceed, in aggregate, 15% of the assessed value of all real and personal property of the City as specified in the California Government Code Section 43605.

FUND BALANCE

GOVERNMENT FUND TYPE DEFINITIONS
The City’s governmental fund types include the general fund, special revenue funds, capital projects funds, and debt service funds. GASB has clarified the definitions of these funds as follows:

GENERAL FUND
The General Fund should be used to account for and report all financial resources not accounted for and reported in another fund.

SPECIAL REVENUE FUNDS
Special revenue funds are used to account for and report the proceeds of specific revenue sources that are restricted or committed to expenditure for specified purposes other than debt service or capital projects. The restricted or committed proceeds of specific revenue sources should be expected to continue to comprise a substantial portion of the inflows reported in the fund. Other resources (investment earnings and transfers from other funds, for example) also may be reported in the fund if those resources are restricted, committed, or assigned to the specified purpose of the fund.

Governments should discontinue reporting a special revenue fund, and instead report the fund's remaining resources in the general fund, if the government no longer expects that a substantial portion of the inflows will derive from restricted or committed revenue sources

CAPITAL PROJECTS FUNDS
Capital projects funds are used to account for and report financial resources that are restricted, committed or assigned to expenditure for capital outlays, including the acquisition or construction of capital facilities and other capital assets. Capital projects funds exclude those types of capital-related outflows financed by proprietary funds or for assets that will be held in trust for individuals, private organizations or other governments.

DEBT SERVICE FUNDS
Debt service funds are used to account for and report financial resources that are restricted, committed or assigned to expenditure for principal and interest, even if it is being accumulated for future years' payments. Debt service funds should be used to report resources if legally mandated.

51 Agenda Item # 7.

FINANCIAL POLICY

FUND BALANCE CLASSIFICATIONS
Fund balance is defined as the difference between assets and liabilities. Beginning in FY2010-2011, the City is required to reclassify fund balances into the following five categories to comply with the Governmental Accounting Standards Board Statement (GASB) No. 54, Fund Balance and Governmental Fund Types.

NONSPENDABLE
This is a portion of fund balance not available for appropriations by its nature or external restriction. Examples are inventories and donations that require intact principal values.

SPENDABLE: RESTRICTED
The restricted portion of fund balance is subject to externally enforceable legal restrictions.

Examples are Gas Tax revenues and grant proceeds.

COMMITTED
The committed portion of fund balance is constrained by the limitations imposed through formal City Council action. Only formal City Council action can remove or modify a previously committed amount.

ASSIGNED
The Assigned portion of fund balance is established for intended use by either the City Council or its designee, such as the City Manager. No formal City Council action is needed to remove the intended use. GAAP required reserves, such as the Other Post-Employment Benefits (OPEB) reserve, belong to this category. The Fiscal Policy and State Revenue Stabilization policy balances belong to this category.

UNASSIGNED
The Unassigned portion of fund balance is that remaining after the non- spendable, the restricted, the committed, and the assigned fund balances are identified and recorded. 52 Agenda Item # 7.

FINANCIAL POLICY

GOVERNING BODY ORDER OF FUND UTILIZATION
The City of Los Altos will use GASB's definitions of fund balance for the annual financial reports (audits) and for all other financial reporting. For all financial planning purposes, the term Budgetary Fund Balance will be used and will include any portion of the fund balance that is available for appropriation. Portions of the fund balance not available for appropriation will be identified as follows.

The City of Los Altos policy establishes the order of use of unrestricted resources as follows:

The City shall strive to use the most restricted fund balances prior to utilizing those that are less restricted. The following order of use reflects this guideline:
• Nonspendable (if funds become spendable)
• Restricted
• Committed
• Assigned
• Unassigned

SPECIAL REVENUE CLASSIFICATIONS
Only the General Fund has an unassigned category since money remaining in any other fund is automatically designated or assigned to the purposes of that fund. Under the new GASB 54 rules, if the balance of a Special Revenue Fund if not formally restricted or committed by fiscal year end, then it must be reported as part of the General Fund for fiscal year end audited financial statement purposes.

For some of the City's special revenue funds, this necessitates the City Council to provide direction on the intended use of resources for the future. Staff recommends that the City Council adopt the following list of the City's Special Revenue Funds and their expected fund balance classifications:
• Vehicle Impound Fund – Restricted to Public Safety Use • Supplemental Law Enforcement Fund – Restricted by State Statute • Gas Tax Funds – – Restricted by State Statute
• Proposition 1B – Restricted by State Statute
• Storm Drain Deposits – Restricted to Storm Drain Use
• Community Development Block Grants – Restricted by Federal/State Statute • Downtown Parking Fund – Restricted by Council Action
• In-Lieu Park Fee – Restricted by State Statute
• Traffic Impact Fee – Restricted by State Statute
• Estate Donation Fund – Restricted by Council Intent
• Transportation Development Act (TDA) Funds – Restricted by State Statute • Measure B Fund – Restricted by State Statute
• Vehicle Registration Fund - Restricted by State Statute • PEG Fees Fund – Restricted by State Statue
• Public Art Fund – - Restricted by Council Intent
• AB- 1379 CASP Fee- – Restricted by State Statute
• SB1 Road Maintenance Rehab – Restricted by State Statute • Public Safety Impact Fee – Restricted by State Statute 53 Agenda Item # 7.

FINANCIAL POLICY
• General Gov’t Impact Fee – Restricted by State Statute In addition, GASB 54 allows the City Council authority to "assign" ending fund balances or bestow this authority to a City officer or designee. To provide the City with the most flexibility in financial reporting, the City Manager is given authority to assign resources and ending fund balances.

FUND BALANCE POLICY LEVELS

PURPOSE
The City of Los Altos (City) has enacted the Fund Balance policies in an effort to ensure financial security through the maintenance of a healthy fund contingency balance that guides the creation, maintenance, and use of resources for financial stabilization purposes. The City’s primary objective is to maintain a prudent level of financial resources to protect against reducing service levels or raising taxes and fees due to temporary revenue shortfalls or unpredicted one-time expenditures. The City also seeks to maintain the highest possible credit ratings which are dependent, in part, on the City’s maintenance of a healthy fund balance.

GENERAL FUND
The City’s fiscal goal is to maintain annual expenditure increases at a sustainable growth rate, and to limit expenditures to anticipated revenue in order to maintain a balanced budget. The Councildirected target is to maintain an unrestricted unassigned fund balance within the range of not less than 17% of annual operating expenditures for the fiscal year with a multi-year goalof no less than of achieving a 20% unrestricted of annual operating expendituresfund balance level for the reasons noted below. This level of coverage includes General Fund balance amounts specifically assigned for annual Emergency and Operating Reserve as discussed and defined further below:
• To provide funding to cover approximately two (2) months of operating expenses with the goal of achieving three months coverage in the long term.
• To provide the liquidity necessary to accommodate the City’s uneven cash flow, which is inherent in its periodic tax collection schedule.
• To provide the liquidity to respond to contingent liabilities. • To adhere to Government Finance Officers Association (GFOA) recommendation that a minimum General Fund unrestricted fund balance to be maintained of no less than either two (2) months of regular operating revenues or expenditures.

INTENDED USES FOR RESERVE
• • Interruptions in cash inflows
•
Examples include the State holding back on or altering tax disbursements, loss of sales tax receipts of a one time nature, or a significant economic slowdown. If the cash inflow Formatted: Justified

FINANCIAL POLICY
interruption is of an ongoing nature, reserve use is limited to a consecutive two-year period, not to exceed 40% of the beginning reserve balance. • • Emergencies
In the event of an emergency or disaster such as earthquakes, fires, floods or other such emergencies, the entire balance may be used to temporarily fund recovery costs. It is understood that all aide assistance options will be sought to fund recovery efforts or reimbursement of the Contingency Reserve for frontingthe fronting of recovery costs.

OTHER CRITERIA FOR USE
A majority vote from the City Council is required to determine that it is necessary to use the Contingency Reserve for any of the uses listed above. With the exception of the emergency scenario, the reserve contingency balance allocated for other intended uses shall not exceed 50% of the required balance in any given year.

REPLENISHMENT PLAN
Unless a repayment plan is pre-established at the time reserves are allocated, Staff shall bring for Council consideration a replenishment plan, within 60-days of allocation from the reserve. It would be Council’s expectation that every effort would be made to replenish the reserve as soon as it is financially feasible and practical to do so.

CALPERS UNFUNDED ACCRUAL LIABILITY (UAL) &OTHER POST -EMPLOYMENT

BENEFITS (OPEB) FUNDING
The City conducted actuarial studies to comply with GASB Statement No. 45, Accounting and Financial Reporting by Employers for Post-Employment Benefits and GASB Statement No. 68, Accounting and Financial Reporting for PensiontoPension to determine the City’s obligations). The studies concluded that the City should set aside annual funding for those obligations and the City has maintained internal funding of UAL and OPEB obligations for this purpose..

SEWER FUND BALANCES
The City should maintain the balances in the Sewer Fund at a level sufficient to accommodate operating and capital needs. The Sewer Master Plan has set this reserve at 25% of annual expenditures, including estimated capital improvements. This level of funding should be established pursuant to the performance of a utility fund rate-study and/or master plan and are to be used for unanticipated operating and capital needs, and to level future rate increases. Multi-year fee studies for this fund should be updated periodically as a basis for defining the revenue sources necessary to maintain system infrastructure and required services levels. As a result of the periodic fee or master plan studies, adjustments to user charges may be necessary to maintain recommended fund balance levels.

Additionally, the auditor will present the ACFR and discuss audit findings to the Financial Commission. The City encourages the rotation of audit service providers on a periodic basis.

The City is encouraged to submit the Annual ACFR and Popular Annual Financial Report (PAFR) to State and/or National Government Finance Professional organizations (Government Finance Officers’ Association’s Certification of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting - California Society of Municipal Finance Officers ACFR Award) for independent review and evaluation Internal financial status reports are to be issued on a period c and timely basis – no less than quarterly and be made readily available citywide.

CAPITAL ASSETS
At the time of Acquisition, capital assets are valued at historical cost or estimated historical cost if actual historical cost is not available.

The City is to record the depreciation equipment, buildings and facilities, and infrastructure as follows and in line with internally established capitalization guidelines:

CAPITALIZATION THRESHOLDS
• Land purchases Any value
• Equipment $10,000
• Buildings and facility improvements $25,000
Formatted: Justified
56 Agenda Item # 7.

FINANCIAL POLICY
• Infrastructure $100,000

DEPRECIATION
Depreciation will be recorded on a straight-line basis over the following estimated useful lives:
• Equipment 3 – 10 years
• Site Improvements other than buildings 30 – 50 years
• Buildings 50 years
• Infrastructure 30 – 100 years
In June 1999, the GASB issued Statement No. 34 which requires the inclusion of infrastructure capital assets in local governments’ basic financial statements. In accordance with GASB Statement No. 34, the City included all infrastructure into the Basic Financial Statements. The City defines infrastructure as the basic physical assets that allow the City to function. The assets include streets, sewer, and park lands. Each major infrastructure system can be divided into subsystems. For example, the street system can be subdivided into pavement, curb and gutters, sidewalks, medians, streetlights, landscaping and land. These subsystems were not delineated in the basic financial statements. The appropriate operating department maintains information regarding the subsystems.

Interest accrued during capital asset construction, if any, is capitalized for the business type and proprietary funds as part of the asset cost.

INTERNAL CONTROL FOR FINANCIAL ENTERPRISE SYSTEM
The City works with Bay Cities Joint Powers Insurance Authority to conduct periodic cybersecurity audits. All cybersecurity measures are in accordance with City and State laws and industry best practices.

Financial system access control is in place. Only authorized individuals can access critical financial systems and data.

The City holds regular training sessions to raise awareness among employees about the importance of cybersecurity and to educate on best practices. These training sessions include topics such as phishing attacks, social engineering, safe browsing habits and the proper handling of sensitive data.

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW

PREVIOUS COUNCIL CONSIDERATION
Not Applicable.
58 Agenda Item # 8.

BACKGROUND
The proposed Design Review ordinance merges together two (2) existing Chapters within the Los Altos Municipal Code, Chapter 14.76 and 14.78. The two (2) existing chapters both necessitate amendments for consistency in the Los Altos Zoning Code. The two (2) chapters are being proposed to be merged as the best practice for user experience and ease of application of the Code.

The merger of the two (2) chapters into a standalone chapter is common practice for the requirements of Design Review in most jurisdictions, as the process for permitting should be the same, and the district specific regulations are reflected elsewhere in the code. Specific provisions in the proposed ordinances are largely consistent with the existing two separate chapters, and existing practice within the City.

ANALYSIS
The Ordinance consolidates two (2) standalone ordinances for design review within the City of Los Altos, one for the Single-Family Districts, and one for all other Districts. The two (2) standalone ordinances necessitate updates for consistency with the Los Altos Municipal Code based on several recently completed code amendments. The merger of the two (2) chapters allows for best practice and what is commonly seen in other codes within the industry. Regulations contained within the newly proposed Chapter are largely the same as what exists today, and existing practices of the City of Los Altos.

DISCUSSION
The consolidated Design Review Ordinance ensures consistency and adherence to the City of Los Altos established rules and regulations for development. The existing two (2) standalone chapters do not speak to each other, and in some areas fall short of the prescriptive compliance that is necessary for a well-established regulatory framework. The amendments are proposed based on the existing practices of the City of Los Altos, and industry standards which are known for this municipal function in Planning and Zoning. Overarchingly the amendments streamline the review process for all parties, which is crucial as Design Review is the City’s single most application requested and reviewed by the Development Services Department.

Planning Commission June 5th Recommendation
On June 5, 2025, the Los Altos Planning Commission held a public hearing to consider the draft ordinances. During that meeting public testimony was received; the commission considered all testimony.

In approving applications for design review approval under this chapter, the approving authority shall make the following findings:

A. The proposal meets the goals, policies and objectives of the general plan and any specific plan, objective design guidelines and ordinance design criteria adopted for the specific district or area.

B. The proposal has architectural integrity and has an appropriate relationship with other structures in the immediate area in terms of height, bulk and design.

C. Building mass is articulated to relate to the human scale, both horizontally and vertically. Building elevations have variation and depth and avoid large blank wall surfaces. Residential or mixed-use residential projects incorporate elements that signal habitation, such as identifiable entrances, stairs, porches, bays and balconies.

D. Exterior materials and finishes convey high quality, integrity, permanence and durability, and materials are used effectively to define building elements such as base, body, parapets, bays, arcades and structural elements. Materials, finishes, and colors have been used in a manner that serves to reduce the perceived appearance of height, bulk and mass, and are harmonious with other structures in the immediate area.

E. Landscaping is generous and inviting, and landscape and hardscape features are designed to complement the building and parking areas, and to be integrated with the building architecture and the surrounding streetscape. Landscaping includes substantial street tree canopy, either in the public right-of-way or within the project frontage.

F. Signage is designed to complement the building architecture in terms of style, materials, colors and proportions.

G. Mechanical equipment is screened from public view and the screening is designed to be consistent with the building architecture in form, material and detailing.

H. Service, trash and utility areas are screened from public view, or are enclosed in structures that are consistent with the building architecture in materials and detailing. 78 Agenda Item # 8.

14.78.070 Variances.

A. Purpose. In order to avoid such practical difficulties, unnecessary physical hardships and results inconsistent with the objectives of the zoning plans stated in Article 1 of Chapter 14.02, as would result from a strict or literal application of the provisions of this chapter, the planning commission may approve or recommend variances to the regulations controlling site area, width, depth and coverage, yards, and other open spaces, parking spaces, loading spaces, height of structures, allowable building floor area and fences for a property located in any district, except for those located in an R1 or R3-4.5 district.

1. The planning commission shall be the approving authority for all variance applications pursuant to Section 14.78.020.C.

b. That the granting of the variance will not be detrimental to the health, safety, or welfare of persons living or working in the vicinity or injurious to property or improvements in the vicinity; and
c. That variances from the provisions of this chapter shall be granted only when, because of special circumstances applicable to the property, including size, shape, topography, location, or surroundings, the strict application of the provisions of this chapter deprives such property of privileges enjoyed by other property in the vicinity and under identical zoning classifications.

C. Any variance granted shall be subject to such conditions as will assure that the adjustment thereby authorized shall not constitute a grant of special privileges inconsistent with the limitations upon other properties in the vicinity and district in which such property is situated.

No. 2012-382, § 1, 5-22-2012; Ord. No. 2016-423, §§ 6, 8, 9-27-2016) Editor's note(s)—See editor's note, § 14.78.060.

City Council Agenda Report
Meeting Date: July 8, 2025
Prepared By: Saskia Lagergren
Approved By: Gabriel Engeland
Subject: Adoption of Resolution—Agreement with Axon Enterprise, Inc

COUNCIL PRIORITY AREA
☒Public Safety
☐Business Communities
☐Circulation Safety and Efficiency
☐Environmental Sustainability
☐Housing
☒General Government

RECOMMENDATION
Adopt a resolution authorizing the City Manager to execute a contract with Axon Enterprise, Inc. ("Axon") for the purchase and deployment of public safety technology and equipment, in an amount not to exceed $453,600 over a 5-year contract.

FISCAL IMPACT
The $93,366 annual cost is included in the adopted FY25/26 Operating Budget under the Public Safety Department to support this contract with Axon Enterprise, Inc. No additional appropriation is required at this time.

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
Not Applicable.

PREVIOUS COUNCIL CONSIDERATION
None

ANALYSIS
The current contract with Axon is $69,482 annually and will exceed the City Manager’s signing authority when the next payment comes due in October 2025. Staff are requesting the City Council to authorize the City Manager to execute an agreement with Axon for a total of $453,600 over 5 years. We have already completed Year 1 of the contract.

DISCUSSION
The Los Altos Police Department has contracted with Axon for many years and has obtained bodyworn cameras and “Tasers” from Axon, along with software to store the body-worn camera footage (Evidence.com). In October 2024, the contract was renewed for $69,482 annually and was set for 86 Agenda Item # 9.
a 5-year term. Axon is a sole source vendor for this equipment and software. All of the Los Altos Police Department’s digital evidence, including body worn camera footage, is stored in Axon’s Evidence.com system.

Staff would like to continue our contract with Axon, but need Council approval to surpass the City Manager’s signing authority. We need to add an additional three (3) tasers and five (5) body worn cameras to use as spares when equipment goes down and to assign to staff that will be hired within the next year. A transcription feature and more storage that is needed is also being added, which is increasing the annual cost for Years 2-5 to $93,366 per year. There will also be a one-time prorated payment in July 2025 for $10,615 to add the new equipment and services until our annual bill comes due in October. There is no additional fiscal impact to the City as all these expenses were budgeted in the FY25/26 Budget.

City Council Agenda Report
Meeting Date: July 8, 2025
Prepared By: Manny A. Hernandez
Approved By: Gabriel Engeland
Subject: Adoption of Resolution – Janitorial Services for City Facilities

COUNCIL PRIORITY AREA
☒Public Safety
☐Business Communities
☐Circulation Safety and Efficiency
☒Environmental Sustainability
☐Housing
☒General Government

RECOMMENDATION
Adopt a resolution authorizing the City Manager to execute an amendment to the agreement with IMPEC Group for janitorial services in the amount not to exceed $885,276 for a two-year term on behalf of the City.

FISCAL IMPACT
This action will cost $885,276 over two years from the general fund.

Fiscal Year 2025/26 - $438,252
Fiscal Year 2026/27 - $447,024
This is budgeted annually in the Facilities operating budget.

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
Categorically Exempt pursuant to CEQA section 15301 – Existing Facilities

PREVIOUS COUNCIL CONSIDERATION
Not Applicable.

BACKGROUND
Janitorial services are an important aspect of a healthy work environment and inviting public spaces. The City contracts janitorial services for the cleaning of the buildings, facilities, parks and litter control within parks. Work is performed at the following locations, with scopes of services tailored to each unique location on daily, weekly, monthly and quarterly timeframes.  Grant Park Community Buildings
 Municipal Services Center
 Los Altos Community Center

 Police Department
 PD Annex
 IT Annex
 City Hall – Administration Building
 City Hall – Development Center
 Garden House
 San Antonio Club
 999 Fremont
 Gymnasiums (Blach, & Egan)
 City Parks

ANALYSIS
The City has been in a contract for janitorial cleaning services with IMPEC Group for three years under the current agreement. The four years prior IMPEC provided services under a previous agreement.

Amendment 2 is requesting a two-year contract extension that reflects a base contract amount slightly higher than the most recent contract year amount. IMPEC Group increased costs by 3% each year to reflect CPI and supply cost increases. Also a factor in the increase is the expanded services required for the maintenance of the new City Hall Administration Building (Formerly LAYC). With it functioning as an office building rather than an open room facility prior to the recently completed remodel.

IMPEC Group has provided satisfactory janitorial services to the City of Los Altos during their time under the current agreement. They have worked well with staff in making schedule adjustments as well as providing special services whenever needed. Complaints about the custodial services the IMPEC Group provides have been minimal during this their time as the City’s janitorial contractor.

DISCUSSION
The original one-year agreement with IMPEC Group in 2022/23 was renewable for four additional years. Amendment 2 would extend them for the final two years of that agreement.

Staff feels IMPEC Group provides above satisfactory custodial services for the City. Their proposal for the upcoming two-year term is reasonable and competitive in today’s market. At the conclusion of this two-year amendment the City will again go out for proposals for city-wide janitorial service.

Payments for janitorial services will not exceed $885,276 over the two-year term (FY26 - $438,252, FY27 - $447,024)

Subject: Adoption of the E-Bicycle and E-Scooter Ordinance

COUNCIL PRIORITY AREA
☒Business Communities

RECOMMENDATION
Waive Second Reading and Adopt the new Chapter 8.32 entitled “Bicycle and Electric Mobility Devices” to Title 8 (Vehicles and Traffic) of the Los Altos Municipal Code

FISCAL IMPACT
Not Applicable.

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
Not a Project Under CEQA.

PREVIOUS COUNCIL CONSIDERATION
The City Council conducted the first reading of the ordinance on June 24, 2025.

BACKGROUND
The recommended ordinance was first brought before the City Council on June 8, 2025, for consideration and discussion. At this Council meeting, the Council was asked to adopt the following recommendations:

1. Operators of e-bikes and e-scooters are required to wear a helmet if they are under 18 years of age in accordance with the State law.

2. E-bikes and e-scooters shall be restricted from operating on sidewalks throughout the City, except by juveniles 12 years of age and younger.

3. The number of riders on an e-bike and e-scooter shall not exceed one (1), unless the e-bike or scooter is specifically designed for multiple riders. 117
Agenda Item # 12.

4. Any individual may operate a bicycle on a sidewalk if riding the bicycle on the street or designated bicycle lane places the individual in an unsafe situation, given the current road conditions.

Based on the staff's recommendation, the Council requested modifications to the proposed ordinance as written. The Council directed staff to remove the age exemption and the restriction of riding on playgrounds or school grounds. The Council further directed staff to broaden the exemption for sidewalk riding to include roadway conditions or other considerations that may make a rider feel unsafe operating in the roadway.

On June 24, 2025, staff presented a modified ordinance based on comments provided by the Council at their regular meeting on June 8, 2025. After some discussion, the Council voted to pass the modified ordinance as written with minor modifications and conducted the first reading of the ordinance.

ANALYSIS
The adoption of the ordinance into the City’s municipal code will allow greater flexibility for the police officers when addressing e-bicycle and e-scooter violations. Depending on the severity of the violation, the police officers now have the option of citing under the city ordinance or State statute. Prior to the adoption of the ordinance, when a police officer cites a violation, the individual would be cited under the State code, so the matter would be addressed by the traffic courts, which has the potential to have a long-term impact on the individual, especially on a minor. With the adoption of State law into the City’s municipal code, the police office now has the option to issue an administrative citation, which is not as severe to the individual, especially to a minor. The fines that have been identified in the ordinance were intentional, so it is not punitive and provides an opportunity for the police officers to educate and hopefully modify their behavior when utilizing e-bicycles or e-scooters.

DISCUSSION
Under the ordinance, any individual may operate a bicycle on the sidewalk if riding the bicycle on the street or designated bicycle lane would place that individual in an unsafe situation. The types of hazards that would qualify a bicycle to utilize the sidewalk under the new ordinance are as follows:

1. The road is less than eleven (11) feet in width without a designated bicycle lane.

2. Debris is blocking a dedicated bicycle lane, and riding on the sidewalk is the only means of getting around the hazard.

3. Vehicles are parked in the bicycle lane or utilizing it for turning movements at an intersection.

4. The condition of the road has deteriorated to the point where it is unsafe for a bicycle to traverse through the area.

5. Include traffic as a cause, such as traffic congestion and/or circulation issues, or other similar road conditions creating a traffic safety concern.

Other conditions may exist that are not listed by the staff, nor can they be anticipated. This is where judgment must be exercised by the police officers who will enforce this ordinance. 118
Agenda Item # 12.

The low fines for violating this ordinance are not intended to penalize but to promote behavioral modification. The Council's adoption of state laws into the City’s municipal code would provide our police officers with the flexibility to issue administrative citations. If the violation is egregious, the police officer continues to have the option to cite the violator under the vehicle code, which typically carries higher penalties administered by the traffic courts.

Staff recommends waiving the second reading and adopting the new Chapter 8.32 entitled “Bicycle and Electric Mobility Devices” to Title 8 (Vehicles and Traffic) of the Los Altos Municipal Code.

With the Council's second reading of the ordinance, the new ordinance will go into effect in thirty (30) days.

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The project is Categorically Exempt pursuant to CEQA Section 15301(c). The project scope is considered maintenance of existing streets, which are exempt from review under the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”).

PREVIOUS COUNCIL CONSIDERATION
Not Applicable

BACKGROUND
The annual street resurfacing project is dedicated to repairing and maintaining existing asphalt concrete (AC) roadways in the city. The project will consist of either removing 2.5 to 3 inches of existing AC and placing 2.5 to 3 inches of new AC when warranted or micro-surface the road to extend its life.

The original scope of work consists of grinding and overlaying of AC of Springer Road from Foothill Expressway to 905 Springer Road; Laver Court from St. Joseph to the end of the cul-desac; Shelby Lane from Cuesta Drive to the end of the cul-de-sac; Stonehaven Drive from St.

Matthew Way to the end of the street; University Avenue from Edith Avenue to Burke Road; Loma Prieta Court from Miramonte Avenue to the end of the cul-de-sac; Alicia Way from Almond Avenue to Jardin Drive; Camellia Court from Camellia Way to the end of the cul-de-sac; Newcastle Drive from Grant Road to Fremont Avenue; and Jay Street from N. Clark Avenue to N. El Monte Avenue.

The project scope of work also includes micro-surfacing Main Street from Foothill Expressway to State Street; State Street from First Street to Main Street; University Avenue from Burke Road to Anita Avenue; S. El Monte Avenue from Cuesta Drive to S. Clark Avenue; and Grant Road from 127
Agenda Item # 13.

Foothill Expressway to Homestead Road. Micro-surfacing involves applying a mixture of water, asphalt emulsion (AC binder), crushed rock, and additives. This application is commonly used in sections where the road has aged, exhibits minimal cracking, and fine aggregates (small rock) have flaked off over the years. By applying micro-surfacing, the road will receive a new layer of road binder and aggregate, extending its life. At all locations, the project will include adjusting existing utility covers to grade, installing new signage, and applying thermoplastic striping as part of the project.

DISCUSSION/ANALYSIS
The Council’s priority goal is to enhance public safety, particularly on roads designated as safe routes to school (SRTS). Based on the Council’s priority goals, emphasis was placed on SRTS streets for the annual street resurfacing. The list of selected streets was presented to the Complete Streets Commission (CSC) for public comment. At the CSC meetings, staff presented a list of roads that require maintenance based on the following selection criteria.

1. The Council’s goal for safety improvements to SRTS.

2. The need for road maintenance based on road classification.

3. The pavement condition index (PCI) report.

4. The necessary repairs based on the condition of the road.

5. Budget constraints.

The comments received from the CSC and the public are to implement various elements of the Complete Streets Master Plan. Based on this request, when applicable, multiple aspects of the Complete Streets Master Plan were implemented in the design. As part of the design, the project will install high-visibility crosswalks to enhance pedestrian safety, complete bicycle lanes to provide connectivity, improve striping to increase visibility at night, install delineators to enhance pedestrian and bicycle safety, and install and update ramps.

The city posted the Annual Street Resurfacing Project on PlanetBids on June 10, 2025, and advertised the 2025 Annual Street Resurfacing Project on June 18 and June 25, 2025, in the Town Crier. On July 2, 2025, four (4) bids were received and opened on PlanetBids. The bid result summary is attached. The apparent low bidder submitted an application that was deemed nonresponsive. Therefore, staff determined that the lowest responsive and responsible bidder is O’Grady Paving, Inc. The contractor has an active contractor’s license and is registered with the DIR.

This project included a base bid and three add alternates. Based on the available budget, the City will only be able to award the base bid. However, the City Council would need to approve an appropriation of $168,896 from the General Fund to cover the total project cost. Staff is recommending that the Council award the base bid for the Annual Street Resurfacing Project (TS01001 & TS-01004) to O’Grady Paving, Inc. in the amount of $5,379,565 and authorize the City Manager to execute change orders not to exceed $537,957. The total project will be in the amount of $6,211,522. The project is funded by CIP, Gas Tax, Measure B, RMAA, and VRF. The streets listed in add alternates 1, 2, and 3, which include Alicia Way, Stonehaven Drive, and Laver Court, will be included in future street resurfacing projects. 128
Agenda Item # 13.

If approved by the Council, the pre-construction meeting will be scheduled, and the notice to proceed will be issued to the contractor as soon as possible. Advance public notices will be sent to residents, police, fire, and ambulance personnel, providing project details, schedule, and emergency contact information. The contractor will also be required to distribute notification letters to affected residents and post no-street parking signs at least 48 hours before the commencement of work.

SUMMARY
 The City posted the Annual Street Resurfacing Project in PlanetBids on June 10, 2025.  The City advertised the Annual Street Resurfacing Project on June 18, 2025, and June 25, 2025, in the Town Crier.

PREVIOUS COUNCIL CONSIDERATION

February 28, 2023—Discussion about potential Flock Pilot Program

BACKGROUND
The Los Altos Police Department utilizes an Automated License Plate Reader (ALPR) system to enhance public safety through the identification of stolen vehicles, wanted persons and vehicles of interest in ongoing investigations. As part of our transparency and accountability commitments, we conduct quarterly audits of our ALPR system usage to ensure all searches and data handling are in full compliance with applicable law and policy.
150
Agenda Item # 16.

ANALYSIS/DISCUSSION
At the January 28, 2025 City Council meeting, several changes were made to the ALPR policy.

One of the changes was to start conducting quarterly audits of system usage. The Los Altos Police Department has conducted two quarterly audits of its ALPR system since the meeting, once in March and once in June. We are pleased to report that all searches have been in compliance with department policy and applicable legal requirements.

We have not received any requests from federal or out-of-state law enforcement agencies for our ALPR data. As such, no data has been shared with any such entities.

The Department maintains strict policy safeguards to prevent unauthorized sharing of ALPR information, especially with federal agencies for immigration enforcement purposes. These safeguards are outlined in Lexipol Policy 462 and are in compliance with the California Values Act (Government Code §§ 7282.5, 7284.2 et seq.). Our policy clearly states that:
 Any Federal or non-California Law Enforcement agency makes a written request, via completion of a form supplied by the Los Altos Police Department, for the ALPR data that includes:
o The name of the agency
o The name of the person requesting
o The intended purpose of obtaining the information
o Acknowledgement that the ALPR data will only be used for the intended law enforcement purposes stated on the form
 The Police Chief or their authorized designee must review and approve the request before any data is released
 The search is conducted by the ALPR system administrator or designee and a record of the approved request is retained
 Importantly, ALPR data will not be shared with federal immigration enforcement agencies (e.g., Immigration and Customs Enforcement [ICE], Customs and Border Protection [CBP]), or for purposes involving individuals seeking reproductive or genderaffirming health care, or for any purpose that violates California law or department policy.

We have received no such requests and thus, no information has been disseminated to federal or out-of-state agencies.

The Los Altos Police Department’s approach to ALPR data usage is firmly rooted in safeguarding community trust and protecting civil liberties.

While recent media reports have raised concerns about other agencies in Southern California allegedly sharing ALPR data with immigration enforcement entities such as ICE or Homeland Security Investigations (HSI), we cannot speak to the policies or decision-making of those agencies. However, the Council can be assured that such sharing would not occur under the safeguards and protocols in place in Los Altos.
151
Agenda Item # 16.

The Los Altos Police Department is committed to the responsible use of ALPR technology. Our internal audits have shown full compliance with our strict policies, and we have effective controls in place to prevent misuse or unauthorized sharing of data. We will continue to monitor usage closely and provide regular updates to the City Council.

(b) If mandated by applicable law, the City will provide access to stored ALPR data in response to non-law enforcement requests
(c) Members approved to access ALPR data under these guidelines are permitted to access the data for legitimate law enforcement or public safety purposes only, as defined in this policy, such as when the data relate to a specific criminal investigation or department-related civil or administrative action.
(d) ALPR data may be released to other authorized and verified law enforcement officials and agencies for legitimate law enforcement purposes, as defined in this policy. (e) Every ALPR browsing inquiry must be documented by either the associated Los Altos Police Department case number or incident number, or the reason for the inquiry. (f) ALPR system audits shall be conducted on a quarterly basis by the Administrative Division Captain and violations of this policy shall be documented and steps should be taken to prevent such violations in the future.
(g) Annual ALPR audits will be conducted by an outside law enforcement agency as an added measure of transparency and to ensure policy compliance by members of the Los Altos Police Department. If a violation of this policy is identified, it shall be documented and steps should be taken to prevent such violations in the future. 153

Los Altos, California 94022-3087
(h) All requests for ALPR data by other law enforcement or governmental agencies that have been approved by the Los Altos Police Department shall be made public and posted on the transparency portal monthly for the prior month.

It is the responsibility of the Administrative Division Captain, or her/his designee, to ensure that an audit is conducted of ALPR detection browsing inquiries quarterly during each calendar year. The Department will audit a sampling of the ALPR system utilization from the prior 3 month period to verify proper use in accordance with the above authorized uses.

The audit will randomly select, at minimum, 15 detection browsing inquiries conducted by department employees during the preceding 3 month period and determine if each inquiry meets the requirements established in this policy. The audit will be documented in the form of an internal department memorandum to the Chief of Police. The memorandum will include any data errors found so that such errors can be corrected. After review by the Chief of Police, the memorandum and any associated documentation will be filed and retained by the Custodian of Records.

In addition, a designated law enforcement agency will do an annual audit of ALPR data, as an added layer of accountability, to ensure members of the Los Altos Police Department are in compliance with this policy.

Previous Audits:

On October 9th, 2024, a random audit of “fifteen detection-browsing inquiries” was conducted by the Los Altos Police Department. The selection was made by collecting the search data from the time of the program inception, March 1st, 2024, until August 31st, 2024. The audit revealed 1240 searches that were made, including the officer that conducted the search, the date and time the search was conducted, the search criteria and the notes entered by the officer. During this audit, it was revealed that the searches failed to comply with Policy# 462.7(e). It was determined that the non-compliant entries were likely due to confusion over providing the case or incident number and the reason. On most other Law Enforcement databases that LAPD officers utilize, there is typically a requirement for a case/incident number or a reason. The recommendation for this audit was ongoing training and additional reminders from supervisors, to ensure compliance with Policy 462.7(e).

On December 17, 2024, I conducted a random audit of “fifteen detection-browsing inquiries”. The selection was made by collecting the search data from the time of implemented training on 10/17/2024 through present day, 12/17/2024. The data was collected and placed into randomizer software (random.org) and then the first fifteen randomized entries were checked against our policy.

The searches were conducted following the guidelines set forth by Policy 462.7(e) by including the reason/case number that was associated with the search. The randomized 15 searches complied with Policy 462.7(e). The highlighted sections of the searches indicates the adherence to Policy 462.7(e), which properly includes a reason and case number associated with the search. 154

Current Audit:

This audit was conducted to ensure the implemented additional training and supervisory reminders has yielded compliance with LAPD Policy 462.7
On March 1, 2025, a random audit of “fifteen detection-browsing inquiries” was conducted by the Los Altos Police Department. The selection was made by collecting the search data from the preceding three months, December 2024-March 2025. Although the data was captured for this time period, FLOCK does retain information for 30 days. Therefore, there may be duplicates of some searches, and there could be searches that preceding the December 1 2024 time frame.

This new audit revealed 1104 searches that were made, including the officer that conducted the search, the date and time the search was conducted, the search criteria and the notes entered by the officer. The data was collected and placed into randomizer software (random.org) and then the first fifteen randomized entries were checked against our policy.

It should be noted that sometime in January 2025, the FLOCK ALPR database implemented new searching criteria, which allowed for additional inputs such as case number and license plates. This new technology changed the formatting of the monthly downloaded data, creating a different format than the previous months. This presented challenges when placing the data into the randomizing software. To overcome this challenge, I inputted the monthly data separately, with the total number of searches for each month, and randomized those numbers. I requested 5 randomized numbers for each month, totaling 15 random searches. The random numbers were then matched to the database line corresponding with that number. The following were the randomized searches that were used for this audit.

MEMORANDUM
DATE: June 1, 2025
TO: Chief Saskia Lagergren
FROM: Sgt. Aimee Major
SUBJECT: FLOCK ALPR QUARTERLY AUDIT JUNE 2025
History:

Per LAPD Policy #462.7, which reads:
462.7 ACCOUNTABILITY AND SAFEGUARDS All data will be closely safeguarded and protected by both procedural and technological means. The Los Altos Police Department will observe the following safeguards regarding access to and use of stored data (Civil Code § 1798.90.51; Civil Code § 1798.90.53):

(h) All requests for ALPR data by other law enforcement or governmental agencies that have been approved by the Los Altos Police Department shall be made public and posted on the transparency portal monthly for the prior month.

It is the responsibility of the Administrative Division Captain, or her/his designee, to ensure that an audit is conducted of ALPR detection browsing inquiries quarterly during each calendar year.

In addition, a designated law enforcement agency will do an annual audit of ALPR data, as an added layer of accountability, to ensure members of the Los Altos Police Department are in compliance with this policy.

Current Audit:

This audit was conducted to ensure the implemented additional training and supervisory reminders has yielded compliance with LAPD Policy 462.7
On June 1, 2025, a random audit of “fifteen detection-browsing inquiries” was conducted by the Los Altos Police Department. The selection was made by collecting the search data from the preceding three months, March 2025-May 2025. Although the data was captured for this time period, FLOCK does retain information for 30 days. Therefore, there may be duplicates of some searches, and there could be searches that preceding the March 1, 2024 time frame.

This new audit revealed 1256 searches that were made, including the officer that conducted the search, the date and time the search was conducted, the search criteria and the notes entered by the officer. The data was collected and placed into randomizer software (random.org) and then the first fifteen randomized entries were checked against our policy.

It should be noted that sometime in the last few months, FLOCK has integrated a new BETA search module. The older module is still accessible, and either module can be utilized by the user, by preference. The older module allows for one entry for either a reason or case number for the search.

The new module delineates the search and case number into separate areas of the search. The total searches for this time period, as well as the randomized search results for this time period, will show both modules were used by different users.

BUDGET PROCESS & CALENDAR
The City of Los Altos operates on a fiscal year basis that begins on July 1 of each year and ends the following year on June 30. The City Manager’s Office and Finance Department manage the budget process with support from each operating department. The preparation of the budget takes place between March and June. The budget is presented to the City Council to allow for public hearings and the City Council adopts the annual budget before June 30 of each year. The budget is adopted through the passage of a resolution. The budget represents the maximum authorized expenditures for the year and cannot legally be exceeded except by subsequent amendments of the budget by the City Council. The City Manager is authorized to make any amendments or transfers of appropriations within the same department. Any amendments to the total level of appropriations for a fund or transfers between funds must be approved by the City Council. See the detailed budget preparation calendar for the City of Los Altos on the next page for details on this process.

Basis of Accounting and Budget
Developed on a program basis with fund level authority, the operating budget represents services and functions provided by the City in alignment with the resources allocated during the fiscal year. The Capital Budget is funded and defined by its’ approved projects, with ongoing or incomplete projects re-appropriated into the following fiscal year.

Basis of Accounting and Budget refers to the timing factor concept in recognizing transactions.

This basis is a key component of the overall financial system because the budget determines the accounting system. For example, if the budget anticipates revenues on a cash basis, the accounting system must record only cash revenues as receipts. If the budget uses an accrual basis, accounting must do likewise. This consistency is also reflected in the City’s Annual Comprehensive Financial Report (ACFR), the State Controller’s Annual Cities Report, and all other report documents.

Government budgets and accounting uses a mix of accounting methods. A hybrid cash and accrual accounting system known as ‘Modified Accrual Basis’ recognizes revenues when measurable and available.

The City considers all revenues reported in the governmental funds to be available if the revenues are collected within 45 days after the fiscal year-end.

Licenses, property taxes and taxpayer assessed tax revenues (e.g., franchise taxes, sales taxes, and transient occupancy tax) are all considered susceptible to accrual and so are recognized as revenues in the period earned/collected. Revenues from grants and donations are recognized in the fiscal year in which all eligibility requirements have been satisfied.

Expenditures are recorded when the liability is incurred. Claims, judgments, compensated absences, and principal and interest on general long-term debt are recognized as expenditures to the extent they have matured.

The Modified Accrual Basis is used for governmental types of funds, while the full accrual basis accounting method is used for proprietary funds. Governmental Funds consist of the General Fund, Special Revenue Funds, Debt Service Funds, and Capital Project Funds.

Under this basis, revenues are estimated for the period if they are susceptible to accrual, e.g. amounts can be determined and will be collected within the current period. Principal and interest on general long-term debt are budgeted as expenditures when due, whereas other expenditures are budgeted for liabilities expected to be incurred during the current period.

Proprietary fund budgets are adopted using the full accrual basis of accounting whereby revenue budget projections are developed recognizing revenues expected to be earned during the period, and expenditures are developed for expenses anticipated to be incurred in the fiscal year. 7 172

BUDGET MESSAGE
DATE: July 8, 2025
TO: Mayor, City Council, and Citizens of Los Altos
FROM: Gabriel Engeland, City Manager
SUBJECT: BUDGET MESSAGE FOR FY25-26 OPERATING BUDGET AND FIVE-YEAR FY25-30

CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT AND MAJOR MAINTENANCE PLAN (CIMMP)
Honorable Mayor and Members of the Los Altos City Council:

The Fiscal Year 2025-26 Operating Budget and the FY2026-30 Capital Improvement and Major Maintenance Program (CIMMP) reflect the City’s continued commitment to fiscal responsibility, transparent governance, and forward-looking investment, values that underpin Los Altos’ identity as a vibrant, inclusive, and sustainable community.

This year’s budget was developed in the context of increasing demands on local government and continued uncertainty at both the state and federal levels. With the sunset of pandemic-era federal funds and ongoing reductions in State support, the City is moving with determination toward long-term financial independence. Staff have responded by reprioritizing investments in public safety, infrastructure, and environmental resilience, ensuring essential services remain strong and responsive.

The FY2025-26 Operating Budget was built using zero-based budgeting, with each department starting from the ground up to justify expenditures. This method aligns resources with outcomes and reinforces our shared focus on service, equity, and strategic priorities. The City Council’s Strategic Goals, reviewed and reaffirmed annually, serve as the foundation for this budget.

Key priorities
 Public Safety: Expanded use of safety technology, enhancements to existing fire facilities, increased parking enforcement, and design work for a new Police building.  Business Communities: Continued implementation of the Downtown Vision Plan, EV 8 173

infrastructure, park and lighting upgrades, and beautification at Loyola Corners.  Circulation and Mobility: Over $6 million dedicated to street resurfacing, pedestrian and bicycle safety, and Safe Routes to Schools infrastructure.  Environmental Sustainability: Green infrastructure upgrades including solar, battery storage, backup generators, and EV readiness at the MSC site.  Housing and Community: Funding for Housing Element implementation, zoning and General Plan updates, and improvements to parks and play spaces citywide.

General Fund Revenue
The FY2025-26 General Fund anticipates total revenues of $65.1 million. Property Tax remains the City’s largest and most stable revenue source, projected at $38.2 million and accounting for 59% of General Fund revenue. Community Development Fees are estimated at $7.1 million, reflecting robust development activity. The Utility Users Tax and Sales Tax are projected at $4.1 million and $3.6 million respectively. These sources provide the fiscal backbone for continued delivery of services and implementation of Council priorities. 59%

General Fund Expenditures
General Fund operating expenditures are projected at $56.8 million. This reflects an 11% increase over the previous year, driven by rising personnel costs, pension contributions, insurance premiums, and key public service contracts. Public Safety remains the largest expenditure category, accounting for 47% of total General Fund spending. This includes contracted fire protection services, police operations, crossing guard services, and emergency response planning.

Parks and Recreation accounts for 17% of expenditures, reflecting investments in facility maintenance, recreational programming, and park improvements. Development Services represents 13%, supporting planning, permitting, code enforcement, and building inspection activities.

Other departments include the City Manager’s Office (7%), Public Works (6%), Finance (5%), Human Resources (4%), and Legislative operations (2%). These allocations reflect the City’s service delivery priorities, operational needs, and contractual commitments. $29.4 $31.1 $32.6 $34.4 $35.6

The City anticipates an operating surplus of $8.3 million, which enables responsible contributions to internal service funds and reserves. These include a $2.0 million allocation to the CalPERS Reserve, continued funding of the Facility Maintenance and Fleet Funds, and maintenance of the Emergency and Operating Reserve at 20% of expenditures. After all allocations, the projected Unassigned Fund Balance stands at $16.9 million.

Enterprise Funds
The Sewer Fund projects $12.5 million in revenue and $11.7 million in expenses, supporting both local wastewater upgrades and the City’s share of costs at the regional treatment plant. The Solid Waste Fund anticipates $1.2 million in revenue and $2.4 million in expenses. These investments maintain compliance with environmental regulations and ensure reliable delivery of critical services such as street sweeping, receptacle upgrades, and emergency clean-up programs.

FY26-30 Capital Improvement and Major Maintenance Program Each year, the City of Los Altos develops a Capital Improvement and Major Maintenance Program (CIMMP) to guide physical infrastructure investment and maintenance across the community.

Integrated with the annual Operating Budget, the CIMMP serves as both a financial plan and implementation tool for the City’s long-term asset stewardship.

Capital Improvement Projects involve new construction, upgrades, or replacement of facilities, streets, equipment, or utilities that exceed $10,000 in cost and extend the service life of assets.

These typically include road improvements, EV infrastructure, building renovations, and stormwater system upgrades.

Major Maintenance Projects consist of recurring investments that maintain existing assets in 2%

The FY2025-26 budget includes $25.3 million for the CIMMP, of which $8.0 million is carried over from the prior year. $12.4 million of the total is funded by the General Fund, with the remaining portion supported by the Sewer Fund, Park In-Lieu Fund, and transportation-related revenues.

Over the FY2026-30 planning period, projected investment in Capital Improvement and Major Maintenance program totals $65 million. Funding allocations are guided by operational needs, asset condition, regulatory requirements, and consistency with adopted plans.

Conclusion
The Fiscal Year 2025-26 Operating Budget is balanced with an estimated surplus. It incorporates planned reserve transfers, meets contractual and regulatory obligations, and allocates funding for both operational needs and capital improvements.

The budget provides appropriations for planned upgrades to the Emergency Operations Center, continued implementation of the Housing Element, and maintenance of existing fire station facilities. Design work for a future Police Department building is also included.

Funding is allocated for transportation-related infrastructure, including updates to pedestrian and bicycle routes and resurfacing projects outlined in the Complete Streets Master Plan. The budget includes EV charging infrastructure and related utility upgrades, as well as continued installation of energy-efficiency improvements at City facilities.

Parks and recreation projects include ADA improvements, playground renovations, and the buildout of the City’s first dedicated dog park. Resources are also included for accessibility assessments and preliminary site enhancements at selected community facilities.

The FY2025-26 Operating Budget and FY2026-30 Capital Improvement & Major Maintenance Program together support delivery of public services and planned infrastructure improvements, while ensuring compliance with reserve and fund balance policies.

COMMUNITY PROFILE
Location
Just 40 miles south of San Francisco, Los Altos is in Santa Clara County and bordered by Los Altos Hills, Palo Alto, Mountain View, Sunnyvale, and Cupertino.

The approximately seven-square mile community is developed with various businesses, schools, libraries, churches, and residences and has a population of approximately 30,000 people. There are seven distinct commercial districts and bustling neighborhood retail areas.

The City of Los Altos operates as a Council-Manager form of government. Council Members are elected at-large to four-year terms and are responsible for determining City policies and service standards. The City Council in turn appoints the City Manager to oversee daily operations.

The mission is to be a sustainable, vibrant, and inclusive community in which to live, work, visit, and play. This guides the regulations and policy that make it possible for residents and businesses to enjoy the charm of a small town near the innovation of Silicon Valley. Los Altos, with its beautiful neighborhoods, award-winning schools, 40+ acres of parks and open space and friendly commercial areas, is an exceptional place to call home and conduct business.

GUIDE TO CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT AND

MAJOR MAINTENANCE PROGRAM
The City of Los Altos develops a Capital Improvement and Major Maintenance Program (CIMMP) to plan for investments in critical infrastructure, such as streets, sewers, and public buildings. This guide outlines how the program is created, how projects are selected, and how the City allocates funding to keep Los Altos safe, functional, and future-ready.

Each year, City staff from Public Works, Finance, and the City Manager’s Office work together to evaluate and prioritize project needs. Some projects, such as those in the City’s Multi-Year Sewer Plan, are already planned. Others are submitted based on observed needs or improvement opportunities. The City Manager and Executive Team review the list of proposed projects, considering their urgency, community benefit, and available funding.

Some projects have designated funding sources like gas tax, grants, or developer fees and are more likely to move forward. Other projects compete for limited resources. After the team evaluates funding and staffing capacity, fundable projects are included in the proposed budget, and others are labeled “unfunded” for future consideration.

The proposed CIMMP is reviewed by the Finance Committee and the Complete Streets Commission to gather public feedback. It is then presented to the City Council at a public hearing, and once approved, becomes part of the City’s annual operating budget.

The City’s Capital Budget is reviewed and adopted each year. It appropriates funds for specific projects and allows the City Council to reassess priorities annually. Capital projects typically involve the purchase, construction, or improvement of major assets like roads, land, and facilities.

These projects usually cost $10,000 or more and have a long useful life. Examples include street repaving, building renovations, or sewer upgrades.

The City also sets aside funding for Major Maintenance Projects, which are recurring improvements aimed at keeping facilities safe, functional, and up to modern standards. These include building repairs, code compliance upgrades, and landscaping improvements. Major maintenance funding is intended to extend the life of existing assets, typically for a ten-year cycle.

In FY25-26, the City plans to invest $25.3 million in capital and maintenance projects. A total of 57 projects are proposed, many of which support Council priorities and core maintenance needs such as sidewalks, signs, and public right-of-way.

Looking ahead, the City expects to invest $65 million over the next five years in infrastructure improvements through a mix of funding sources including the General Fund, Sewer Fund, In-Lieu Park Fund, and Gas Tax revenues. These investments reflect the City’s commitment to maintaining reliable infrastructure and meeting the needs of the community. 70 235

General Plan
2025 COUNCIL PRIORITY AREA
The General Plan is the vision about how a community will grow, reflecting priorities and values while shaping the future. The City of Los Altos General Plan was last updated in 2002. Countless State laws have been established which necessitates a comprehensive overhaul of the exististing adopted plan. Most recently the City adopted its 6th Cycle Housing Element to comply with State Housing law. Upon adoption of a City's 6th Cycle Housing Element, the jurisdiction must update its Safety Element.

When a jurisdiction is required to update two or more required elements of the General Plan it necessitates the creation of an additional required element, the Environmental Justice Element. Additionally, the City in 2022 adopted both its Climate Acition & Adaptaton Plan (CAAP) and it Complete Streets Master Plan (CSMP) both of which provide direction on how the City should continue to grow and develop well into the future. However, it is important for the City of Los Altos to integrate policies and the overall vision of both documents into the General Plan as it is the highest level regulatory land use document within the City. 83 247

City Hall Emergency Back-up Power Generator
2025 COUNCIL PRIORITY AREA
The existing stand-by generators at City Hall, Police Department and the Municipal Services Center are beyond their useful life and in need of replacement. The City has been required by Bay Area Air Quality Management District (BAAQMD) and California Air Resources Board (CARB) to register the emergency generator under the Portable Equipment Registration Program. The generator is subject to unscheduled inspections by the State for compliance with emission requirements. While the existing generator is meeting the current emission requirements, it is aging and at risk of exceeding emission standards soon. A new more energyefficient generator will meet all BAAQMD requirements and will be more cost-effective to operate. 85 249

Sanitary Sewer Video Inspection
2025 COUNCIL PRIORITY AREA
As sewer system networks age, the risk of deterioration, blockages, and collapses become a major concern. Cleaning and inspecting sewer lines is essential to maintaining a properly functioning system. These activities further a community’s reinvestment into its wastewater infrastructure. Inspection programs are required to determine current sewer conditions and to aid in planning a maintenance or rehabilitation strategy. Closed-circuit television (CCTV) inspections are the most frequently used, most cost efficient, and most effective method to inspect the internal condition of a sewer.
