PREVIOUS COUNCIL CONSIDERATION
June 12, 2018; May 28, 2019; May 12, 2020; May 11, 2021; May 10, 2022; May 9, 2023; May 14, 2024; May 13, 2025

BACKGROUND
The City of Los Altos signed a Collection Service Agreement with Mission Trail Waste Systems, Inc. (MTWS) in April of 2010. At its October 22, 2019, meeting, the City Council approved an extension of the Collection Service Agreement that concluded in 2020, which resulted in an amended and restated Collection Service Agreement (Agreement). The amended and restated Collection Service Agreement was executed on April 23, 2020. The Agreement provides for periodic rate adjustments based on the Water-Sewer-Trash Consumer Price Index (CPI).

ANALYSIS
The City of Los Altos Municipal Code Section 6.12.020 (Charge for solid waste collection service) states that “Any and all charges for solid waste collection service shall be set forth in the

franchise agreement, contract or the collection service agreement between the city and its franchised hauler.”
The Agreement with MTWS provides for periodic rate adjustments based on the Water-SewerTrash CPI and establishes that the next adjustment would apply to service beginning July 1, 2026.

The Agreement provides that MTWS shall charge service recipients an amount not to exceed the Maximum Service Rates (Attachment 1) approved by City Resolution as may be adjusted under the terms of the Agreement.

DISCUSSION
Per the Agreement, 2026 rate adjustments are calculated based on CPI. This year’s rate adjustment does not include any adjustment for changes in organic processing costs. The Agreement commits the City to the 4.9041% increase, effective July 1, 2026.

Under Sections 4.01 and 4.02.2.6 of the Agreement, the City Council is required to take action by resolution to effectuate rate increases.

The City’s solid waste consultant, R3 Consulting Group, Inc., reviewed the hauler’s rate adjustment request, with the following results:
• Validated the mathematical accuracy and the correct use of the Water-Sewer-Trash CPI. • Validated the calculated indexed increase.
• Confirmed that the indexed increase was applied correctly to last year’s rates.

RECOMMENDATION
Adopt a resolution to approve the purchase of two Parks Maintenance vehicles. One E-Transit Van for the irrigation crew and one dump-bed truck for general park material transport

FISCAL IMPACT
Purchase Total = $168,179.45
Parks Division irrigation van (2026 Ford E-Transit Cargo Van) = $68,961.45 Parks dump truck (2026 Ford Super Duty F-450 DRW) = $98,538

PREVIOUS COUNCIL CONSIDERATION
None

BACKGROUND
During the FY2025-2026 budget cycle, the city authorized the purchase of a Parks Division irrigation van and a Parks Division dump truck that has exceeded their useful operational lives, as identified in the vehicle replacement schedule.

To ensure competitive pricing and regulatory compliance, Staff utilized Sourcewell, a national cooperative procurement organization. Following a nationwide solicitation process, the lowest qualified quote for the two replacement vehicles is $168,179.45.

ANALYSIS
The Parks Division irrigation van (2026 Ford E-Transit Cargo Van (W9C) T-350 148” Med Rf GVWR RWD) is used by the Parks Division for irrigation repair and maintenance in both Parks and on the boulevards. The van allows crews to have immediate access to parts and tools relating to irrigation systems in city parks.

The Parks Division dump truck (2026 Ford Super Duty F-450 DRW (F4G) XL 2WD Reg Cab 169” WB 84” CA) is used by the Parks Division for areas of Parks maintenance and repair including emergency work during storm events. Debris, trash and other large loads are transported with this truck that has a dump/lift built into the large bed. This size vehicle is not available as an EV.

DISCUSSION
The Parks Division needs an irrigation van to provide a more efficient and organized mobile workshop. Replacing the current gas-powered vehicle with an electric powertrain will contribute to lowering the city’s carbon footprint and fuel expenditures.

A new medium-duty dump truck is essential for the Parks Division to replace an obsolete model that has become cost-prohibitive to maintain. This vehicle provides the necessary payload capacity for hauling debris and soil as the current dump truck but with a more fuel-efficient modern model. Investing in this new unit ensures operational independence and eliminates the frequent scheduling bottlenecks caused by vehicle repairs.

Both vehicles being replaced will be removed from the City’s fleet inventory and sent to auction.

Description of organizational impact on Los Altos community:

Arts Los Altos’ twenty public art installations help to keep our downtown vibrant and contribute to building and sustaining a lively cultural destination that attracts residents, visitors and tourism to its downtown. Increased economic activity benefits restaurants, shops, property owners, artists and local residents alike.

Arts Los Altos, Page 1 of 7

Arts Los Altos has thoughtfully selected talented and diverse artists to reflect its multicultural community and create a sense of place. These artists have transformed blank walls and drab spaces into public art that beautifies spaces, delights, educates, informs, evokes emotion and starts conversation.

Arts Los Altos participates in many community events. For the past several years, we have hosted artists to implement a public participation artwork at the annual Los Altos Arts & Wine Festival and Live Paint Battles by six artists at State Street Market. We have successfully sited the resulting artworks at Chase Bank and State Street Market.

Arts Los Altos leads Public Art Walking Tours every First Friday which brings people downtown and provides art education and appreciation opportunities. We created a Downtown Public Art Map that includes all public art on private and City-owned properties for those who want to do self-guided tours. Each artwork site includes these maps as well as QR codes and printed material about the artist and the artwork.

Appendix A: Detailed explanation of the use of requested funds After being introduced to the project manager at the ground-breaking ceremony for the first all-affordable housing complex in Los Altos at 330 Distel Circle, EAH Housing expressed an interest in collaborating with Arts Los Altos on a public art sculpture. Arts Los Altos presented a preliminary concept of the sculpture, Totemic, which EAH Housing has approved. This sculpture is the single piece of public art for this building. The total cost of the project is estimated at $80,000. EAH Housing has agreed to provide the structural base and concrete footings, secure any required installation permits, structural narrative/engineering documentation, as well as all electrical work connecting the sculpture to the power source. The estimated cost is $35,000. Arts Los Altos is requesting the remaining $45,000 which will be paid directly to the artist, Charles Gadeken, The Box Shop Team.

Arts Los Altos can provide gap funding if necessary.

Totemic is a light and space sculptural field designed by Charles Gadeken, a San Francisco-based industrial artist and sculptor. Skilled in the manipulation of metals, Charles makes copper, bronze, and steel pieces of varying dimensions and functionalities. Totemic will be an immersive steel sculpture with lighting and technology, including colored glass active both day and night. Totemic is more than a static sculpture; it will be a living, breathing experience. It invites visitors to slow down, to observe, and to engage with the fundamental forces of light and time. This sculpture fosters a deep appreciation for color, form, and the unseen rhythms that shape our world.

Arts Los Altos, Page 4 of 7

Totemic by Charles Gadeken
Arts Los Altos, Page 5 of 7

Totemic’s Interactivity & Lighting
● Handprint impressions cast into the bronze layer on the top of the benches contain touch sensors that detect your heartbeat. ● Lights within the sculpture will illuminate the towers from within and be visible through the slumped glass. These lumens will meet the lighting performance standards set forth by the City of Los Altos. ● When detected, the sculpture will dim and brighten in rhythm with your heartbeat.

The glass components in Totemic are custom
pieces of hand-made slumped glass of green
and orange. This allows sunlight to pass
through the sculpture, casting colored shadows
during the day, and elegantly illuminates with
internally placed lights at night. Totemic is a
dialogue between permanence and
impermanence, structure and fluidity, and is a
minimalist representation of the Apricot
Orchards, a part of Los Altos history.

Arts Los Altos, Page 6 of 7

Whether seen as a contemporary monument, a gathering space, or a quiet retreat, Totemic fosters a deep appreciation for color and form.

Appendix B: How this expense will benefit the City
Artistic sculptures in affordable housing developments create value by enhancing the residents’ quality of life and fostering community identity; turning functional, cost-sensitive spaces into vibrant, culturally rich environments that promote social inclusion, often bridging gaps in access to the arts. Public art can foster social interaction among residents and create a welcoming atmosphere. It beautifies spaces and creates a sense of place and pride for residents, improving the overall living environment.

As in-lieu public art fees were waived for this all-affordable housing project, Arts Los Altos stepped in to create a cost-effective way to bring public art to the all-affordable housing complex. This collaboration with EAH Housing brings the experience and artistic expertise of Arts Los Altos to the project, ensuring the artwork aligns with the Los Altos community’s aesthetic.

This interactive sculpture serves as both a lens for exploration and a refuge for contemplation. Unlike the kinetic, high-intensity distractions of modern life, Totemic offers stillness. Visitors can rest in the shade of the towers, watching shadows slowly shift and evolve. The experience is both personal and collective, inviting viewers to reconnect with the natural rhythms of light, time and space with the rhythm of their heartbeat.

Description of organizational activities:

Counseling and Support Services for Youth (CASSY) partners with the Mountain View Los Altos High School District (MVLA) to provide professional, school-based mental health support to students and families free of charge. By delivering services directly on campus, CASSY removes common barriers to care for Los Altos students and families, including cost, insurance complications, transportation challenges, difficulty locating quality providers, long waitlists, and stigma associated with seeking help.

CASSY’s licensed and associate therapists provide culturally responsive individual and group counseling, proactive student check-ins, social-emotional education, risk assessments, safety planning, and crisis intervention. CASSY also offers confidential consultations and guidance for parents and caregivers, as well as support for and collaboration with school staff. These comprehensive, evidence-based services––grounded in decades of clinical and academic research––are designed to increase access to care, reduce stigma, and advance mental health equity.

By helping students build resilience, reduce anxiety and depression, regulate emotions, cope with stress, and strengthen healthy relationships, CASSY equips Los Altos High School students with the social-emotional skills they need to succeed in school and in life.

Description of organizational impact on Los Altos community:

Los Altos students continue to face significant mental health challenges. Four years after the American Academy of Pediatrics and others declared a national emergency in child and adolescent mental health, the Children’s Hospital Association reports that the emergency continues. Many local

students are still struggling with anxiety, depression, academic stress, and emotional distress. In a high-achieving environment, these pressures can undermine student well-being, school connectedness, and academic success. At the same time, families often face major barriers in obtaining timely mental health care for their children, even when they have insurance, making accessible, school-based support especially important.

CASSY helps address this need by providing a school-based mental health safety net for approximately 2,170 students at Los Altos High School, representing 49% of MVLA students. As MVLA’s nonprofit mental health partner, CASSY provides Los Altos High School students and their families with access to no-cost, on-campus mental health support. Beginning in the 2024–2025 school year, CASSY assumed responsibility for the comprehensive school-based mental health services previously provided by CHAC. MVLA staff report that the transition to CASSY has been smooth and positive.

At Los Altos High School, students frequently experience anxiety, academic stress, depression, relationship challenges, and other social-emotional needs that affect both learning and daily functioning. Using evidence-based practices, CASSY therapists help students build the skills needed to manage emotions, cope with stress, strengthen relationships, and navigate challenges successfully.

Early intervention and easy access to care help prevent concerns from escalating and support student well-being, school connectedness, and academic success.

During the 2024–2025 school year, CASSY provided 733 individual counseling and check-in sessions to 128 unique Los Altos High School students, while supporting families 240 times and school staff 245 times. Among students who worked directly with a CASSY therapist, 98% improved or stabilized their emotional or behavioral concerns, and 100% made progress toward their treatment goals.

CASSY’s impact in the Los Altos community also extends beyond Los Altos High School to include Los Altos resident students served through Alta Vista High School and St. Nicholas Catholic School in Los Altos Hills.

By embedding mental health services where students already are, CASSY increases access to care, strengthens student resilience, supports families, and helps Los Altos students overcome challenges so they can thrive in school and beyond.

Members of the City Council
Gabriel Engeland, City Manager
City of Los Altos

Los Altos, CA 94022
Dear Mayor Meadows, Members of the City Council, and Mr. Engeland:

Counseling and Support Services for Youth (CASSY) is pleased to submit the enclosed application for a one-year, $10,000 contribution from the City of Los Altos to support school-based mental health services at Los Altos High School. As the Mountain View Los Altos High School District’s nonprofit mental health partner, CASSY is honored to build on the City’s longstanding commitment to student well-being.

CASSY provides professional, school-based mental health support to students and families free of charge. By delivering services directly on campus, CASSY helps remove common barriers to care, including cost, insurance-related obstacles, transportation challenges, long waitlists, and stigma associated with seeking help.

Across Santa Clara and San Mateo counties, CASSY provides a mental health safety net for nearly 20,000 students on more than 30 school campuses, tailoring services to the needs of each school community. In Los Altos, that work includes direct support for students and families at Los Altos High School, as well as support for Los Altos resident students served through Alta Vista High School and St. Nicholas Catholic School in Los Altos Hills.

The need remains significant. Los Altos students continue to experience anxiety, depression, academic stress, and other social-emotional challenges, while many families still face difficulty obtaining timely mental health care for their children. School-based access reduces barriers to care by bringing support directly to students and families on campus.

CASSY’s impact is measurable. During the 2024–2025 school year, CASSY provided nearly 1,875 individual counseling and check-in sessions to 242 unique MVLA students, while also supporting families more than 615 times and school staff nearly 600 times. Among students 2010 El Camino Real #907, Santa Clara, CA 95050 ∙ 408-493-5289 ∙ www.cassybayarea.org Counseling and Support Services for Youth is a registered 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization

who worked directly with a CASSY therapist, 96% improved or stabilized their emotional or behavioral concerns, and 100% made progress toward their treatment goals.

City support will help sustain the clinical infrastructure necessary to provide high-quality, school-based mental health services at Los Altos High School, including licensed clinical supervision, program oversight, quality assurance, and outcomes tracking in support of two full-time therapists serving students and families.

Since our founding in 2009, partnership has been central to CASSY’s model. As our enclosed 2025 Impact Report reflects, school-based mental health services are strongest when schools, nonprofit providers, and local communities work together to meet student needs. We would be grateful for the opportunity to partner with the City and MVLA to help Los Altos students build resilience, overcome challenges, and thrive.

Sincerely,
Mary Cheryl B. Gloner

IMPACT
REPORT
2025

FROM OUR INTERIM

EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR
When in January, after five years at the
helm, Marico Sayoc accepted a role in
government, I was honored to step into the
role of Interim Executive Director. From my
days as CEO of Project Safety Net, I have
long been familiar with CASSY’s reputation
for providing excellent school-based
mental health care.

In the midst of transition, 2024–2025
brought meaningful growth. CASSY
provided a mental health safety net to
nearly 20,400 students across 37 school
campuses in 10 districts throughout
Santa Clara and San Mateo counties,
stretching from Gilroy to Redwood City.

We expanded our reach through new
partnerships with Mountain View Los
Altos High School District, Khan Lab
School, and Las Lomitas Elementary
School District, and we proudly celebrated
a decade of collaboration with Campbell
Union High School District, a milestone
featured in this year’s Impact Report.

This progress came during a time of
significant challenge. New federal
immigration policies have had a direct
impact on families in our communities,
particularly those with undocumented
status.

In response, we quickly adapted—offering
training to help our clinicians support all
students more effectively, and providing
young people with tools to manage
anxiety.

Looking ahead, I am confident in CASSY’s
direction. With strategic planning
underway and our values as our guide, we
are preparing to meet both the
opportunities and the challenges of the
future.

CASSY has always drawn strength from
collaboration. We are deeply grateful to our
school partners, visionary leaders,
community foundations, and generous
donors. Thank you for standing with
us—and with the young people who rely
on our care. Together, we remain a vital
lifeline during uncertain times.

With gratitude,
Mary Cheryl B. Gloner
It’s been a year of transition,
challenges, and possibilities.

In 2024-2025,
CASSY provided
a mental health
safety net to
20,395 students
“Thank you for standing with us—and with
the young people who rely on our care.”

A DECADE
OF IMPACT Situated in the midst of
Silicon Valley, the
Campbell Union High
School District consists
of five comprehensive high schools and
one continuation high
school. At the crossroads
of three cities––serving
students from Campbell,
Los Gatos, Saratoga, and
San Jose––the district
reflects the rich cultural,
linguistic, and socioeconomic diversity of the
Bay Area.

Students face a wide
array of challenges. For
three years in a row,
anxiety has topped the
list of concerns––from
the academic stress
felt by many students
at top-performing high
schools, to the rising
stress undocumented
and mixed-status
families are experiencing
due to new immigration
policies.

Whatever stressors
students face, CASSY is
committed to serving
all enrolled students
without regard to financial resources, coming
alongside students at
their point of need to
help them build the
coping skills, knowledge,
and resilience to be successful in school and life.

A student-centered approach

PARTNERING FOR SUCCESS
Based on our fruitful partnership, CASSY was
asked to increase staffing in CUHSD next year:
expanding to Boynton High School, which serves
continuation high school students, and adding
another bilingual therapist to better serve
monolingual Spanish-speaking families.

The Power of Holistic
Student Support
Founded in 2009, CASSY is
proud to celebrate ten years
of impact in the Campbell
Union High School District.

In 2015-2016, CASSY and
CUHSD began partnering
to offer comprehensive
mental health services to
better support students
throughout the district.

For the past decade, CASSY
staff have worked
collaboratively with
administrators and district
Wellness Center staff to
help young people become
healthier, stronger, and
more resilient. Last year,
each of the five
comprehensive high schools
had a highly qualified,
full-time therapist dedicated
to their campus, providing a
mental health safety net for
over 8400 students.

Along with proactive
social-emotional education,
our therapists provided over
2,730 individual, group, and
check-in sessions to nearly
520 students, 685 parent
consultations, and nearly
750 consultations with staff.

Students in need received
crisis assessment and
interventions, including
referral for hospitalization for
risk of suicide or self-harm.

Over the years, we’ve found that
some emotional and behavioral
issues actually stem from stressful
circumstances that can be
remedied by partnering with the
school holistically.

In one case, a student was referred
for truancy, chronic tardiness, and
conflict with others. Through sheer
perseverance, establishing trust with
this student, our therapist
discovered what was really going on.

Tasked with taking a younger
sibling to school on the city bus each
morning––only to arrive late and feel
singled out as a problem––it became
easier for the teen to not go at all.

Working in partnership with the
school to secure transportation
services, our therapist helped lift the
crushing weight of responsibility this
young person was carrying, freeing
him up to be a student, address his
challenges––and graduate after all.

When a teacher asked our therapist to
check in on a quiet student, sensing that
something was not quite right, the simple
act of checking in led to a life-saving
intervention. Our therapist knew just
what to ask and what to do to create a
safe space for the student to open
up––and just in time.

Not long ago, a young person felt all alone
in the world, in a very dark place, looking
for a way out. Now they are surrounded by
a circle of care and support, with people
and resources in place to help them find a
way through.

By serving directly on school campuses,
partnering with school staff who know
students best, CASSY literally saves lives.

Description of organizational activities:

Compassion Week (CW) is a community-wide initiative that mobilizes residents of all ages and abilities to participate in meaningful service projects across Los Altos and surrounding areas. Held annually in October, CW offers hundreds of volunteer opportunities that directly benefit local nonprofits, schools, and underserved populations—many of which serve Los Altos residents.

Since its launch in 2012, CW has engaged more than 21,000 volunteers in acts of service supporting over 85 nonprofit organizations. CW is coordinated by a coalition of local partners, including faith communities in Los Altos, the Los Altos Mountain View Community Foundation, local volunteer groups, schools, non-profits and local government officials. These partnerships ensure the week’s activities are rooted in the specific needs of our community.

More than just a volunteer week, CW is a platform for civic engagement and intergenerational connection that strengthens the fabric of Los Altos. Participants regularly return year after year, reporting that CW deepens their connection to the community and inspires continued service.

CW provides a direct, measurable benefit to Los Altos residents and contributes to a more compassionate, resilient, and connected city.

Description of organizational impact on Los Altos community:

Compassion Week (CW) directly impacts the Los Altos community by engaging residents in meaningful service that supports local needs and strengthens community connections. In 2025, hundreds of Los Altos residents participated in CW projects, including students from Los Altos High School, families from local congregations, Los Altos service club members, and senior citizens living in and around the city.

CW projects address critical city priorities:

● Senior Well-Being and Engagement: CW volunteers assembled 120 Senior Activity Kits in partnership with community organizations. These kits provide engaging materials that support cognitive health, creativity, and social connection for older adults. They were distributed by the Community Services Agency.
● Senior Well-being: Volunteers assembled and delivered personalized activity kits to homebound seniors, combating isolation and promoting mental and emotional health among older adults.
● Teen Mental Health: CW volunteers assembled 70 teen wellness bags while learning about Allcove’s services supporting teen mental health. This activity both contributed directly to Allcove’s outreach efforts and increased awareness among participants. As a result, at least one volunteer later sought support from Allcove during a personal mental health crisis.

Last year, more than 600 students from local schools volunteered, developing lifelong habits of service and empathy. Seniors also played a vital role, contributing their time to support their peers.

Families participated side-by-side, deepening their connection to one another and their community.

CW’s impact is both immediate and lasting. Seniors contribute actively alongside younger generations, fostering intergenerational connections. Families deepen their ties to one another and their city. Participants frequently report a greater sense of belonging, purpose, and civic pride. By making service accessible and meaningful for all ages, CW strengthens the fabric of Los Altos and models a compassionate, united response to community needs.

Seniors
Providing Activity Kits for senior citizens
will significantly enhance quality of life
in Los Altos. This peer led effort creates
meaningful opportunities for seniors to
connect with one another while being of
service to other seniors, strengthening
social bonds and fostering a sense of
purpose. Seniors often benefit from
opportunities that support engagement,
creativity, and mental stimulation. By
equipping 120 seniors with thoughtfully
curated activity kits, this project
encourages cognitive health, reduces
social isolation, and promotes a sense of
purpose and enjoyment in daily life. It
supports independent living by offering
accessible, enriching activities that can be
done at home or in group settings.

Additionally, it provides peace of mind to
families knowing their loved ones have
meaningful resources to stay active and
connected. Overall, this project
contributes to a more inclusive and
supportive Los Altos by prioritizing the
well-being of older adults and fostering
community connection.

Los Altos Youth Volunteer
Night
$2,000 A variety of hands-on projects
developed by the Compassion
Week Youth Council to engage
teens in Los Altos. These
projects include creating
personalized care items,
assembling educational kits,
crafting practical accessories,
decorating meal bags, and
making comfort items such as
fleece blankets. These activities
provide opportunities for Los
Altos youth to collaborate, build
skills, and connect with peers
while contributing to meaningful
community focused efforts.

This project will engage young residents
of Los Altos in meaningful, hands-on
service projects that directly support
vulnerable populations in the broader
community. Through activities such as
creating care items, assembling
educational kits, and preparing resources
for local nonprofit partners, teens gain
practical experience in teamwork,
problem-solving, and leadership.

By participating, Los Altos youth build
empathy, confidence, and a deeper
understanding of community needs while
forming connections with peers who
share a commitment to service. These

experiences foster a strong sense of civic
responsibility and belonging, encouraging
ongoing volunteerism and engagement.

These activities invest directly in the
well-being and growth of Los Altos
teens, helping cultivate a generation of
thoughtful, capable, and communityminded leaders who will continue to contribute to the city’s vitality. This
project not only addresses immediate
community needs but also fosters a
culture of volunteerism and leadership
among Los Altos youth, strengthening the
city’s future through engaged,
compassionate citizens.

Family Kick Off Concert $1,000 Musical Performance & Family Volunteer Day
This family friendly Compassion Week
Kick Off Concert and Family Volunteer
Day is a special event in Los Altos that
marks the beginning of a 10-day
community wide volunteer initiative,
bringing together residents of all ages for
an inspiring and engaging experience.

This event is more than just a concert; it’s
an opportunity to connect with a vibrant
network of volunteers and community
partners working on solutions across Los
Altos. Participants will meet like-minded
individuals and enjoy live music while
engaging in family friendly volunteer
activities.

Teen Wellness Bags for
Mental Health
$2,000 400 Teen wellness bags These kits provide teens in Los Altos with accessible tools, resources, and
support strategies to help manage stress,
anxiety, and everyday emotional
challenges. What makes this project
especially impactful is that the wellness
bags are assembled by an
intergenerational group of Los Altos
volunteers, creating meaningful
connections across age groups as they
work together in service.

This collaborative approach fosters
mutual understanding, mentorship, and a
shared sense of purpose, benefiting both
teens and older adults involved in the
process. While teens receive resources
that support their well-being, volunteers
experience increased social connection
and fulfillment through giving back to
younger generations. By proactively
investing in teen mental health and
strengthening intergenerational ties, the
project contributes to a healthier, more
resilient community. It reinforces Los
Altos’ commitment to supporting its
youth while cultivating a culture of
connection, care, and civic engagement
across generations.

Description of organizational activities:

Live Oak Adult Day Services (LOADS) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit providing structured, compassionate daytime care for frail seniors with cognitive or physical impairments, including Alzheimer's, dementia, Parkinson's, and stroke. Founded in 1983, LOADS now operates four centers across Santa Clara County — Cupertino, Los Gatos, Willow Glen, and Gilroy — serving 160+ clients with 2,900+ annual service visits. Socialization is not a single activity at LOADS — it is embedded in every aspect of our program. From the moment clients arrive and greet one another, through shared meals, adaptive exercise, music, and arts and crafts, to the connections that unfold throughout the day, meaningful human engagement is woven into everything we do. This intentional social fabric combats the isolation that accelerates cognitive decline, and it is what clients and families consistently say matters most. Fees are set on a sliding scale to ensure access for all income levels. LOADS also provides critical caregiver respite through support groups and educational classes, enabling families to keep their loved ones safely at home. LOADS is a recognized partner in Santa Clara County's senior care ecosystem, with existing funding contributions from the Cities of Cupertino, Campbell, and Gilroy — peer communities that have each recognized adult day care as a community essential.

Description of organizational impact on Los Altos community:

The need is urgent and growing. More than 6,300 Los Altos residents — approximately 21% of the city's population — are age 65 or older (U.S. Census), one of the highest senior concentrations in Santa Clara County, with a median age of 46 and rising. Yet Los Altos has no dedicated adult day care program of its own, leaving many frail seniors and their caregivers without the structured support they need to remain at home.

LOADS is the single best solution for aging in place for Los Altos seniors. Our Cupertino center on McClellan Rd is just minutes away, making LOADS immediately accessible today. Skilled nursing facility care in Santa Clara County costs approximately $15,000 per month; LOADS provides high-quality structured care at a fraction of that cost, reducing the frequency of 911 calls and ER visits and directly supporting the City's public safety and well-being goals. No Los Altos senior is ever turned away due to inability to pay.

This funding will produce measurable results. LOADS commits to enrolling a minimum of 5 additional Los Altos residents within 12 months through outreach to El Camino Hospital, Stanford Hospital, the Los Altos Senior Center, and any other channels the City deems possible. A recommendation letter from El Camino Health Chief Nursing Officer Cheryl Reinking, DNP, RN is attached. LOADS will also support working-age caregivers through support groups and workshops, and will deliver a full outcomes report to the City by August 31 of each funded year.

A proven model with a vision for deeper partnership. The Cities of Cupertino, Campbell, and Gilroy have each invested in LOADS — peer communities that recognize adult day care as a community essential. Los Altos has the opportunity to join them. As enrollment grows, LOADS is open to exploring a satellite presence within Los Altos itself, positioning the City as a regional leader in aging-in-place solutions.

Re: Letter of Support — Live Oak Adult Day Services Grant Application Dear Members of the Los Altos City Council,
I am writing in strong support of the funding application submitted by Live Oak Adult Day Services (LOADS) to the City of Los Altos Non-Profit and Civic Organization Contributions Program. As Chief Nursing Officer of El Camino Health System, a two- hospital, 21-site nonprofit health system serving Silicon Valley's communities for more than 60 years. I oversee the strategic direction of nursing and clinical care for thousands of patients annually, a substantial proportion of whom are older adults residing in Los Altos and the surrounding Bay Area communities.

From a health system perspective, one of the most significant and enduring gaps in the senior care continuum is the space between hospital discharge and safe, sustained independence at home. At El Camino Health, we discharge hundreds of older adults each month who are medically stable but not yet capable of managing their days without structured support. For these patients and for the caregiving families who are often at or near their limits community-based programs like Live Oak Adult Day Services are essential.

Live Oak Adult Day Services has earned the trust of our clinical and discharge planning teams as a reliable and responsive post-acute partner in our region. When our social workers identify a senior patient who requires structured daytime care and social engagement to remain safely at home but does not meet the threshold for skilled nursing facility placement LOADS is an important resource on our list of referrals. Their Cupertino center on McClellan Road is conveniently located for patients and families in Los Altos, and their staff consistently demonstrate the clinical competence, cultural sensitivity, and genuine warmth that defines excellent elder care.

What distinguishes LOADS from many programs is their philosophy that socialization is not a discrete activity, and it is embedded in every dimension of care. From shared meals to adaptive exercise, music, and creative programming, meaningful human connection runs through everything they offer. This matters enormously from a clinical standpoint: social isolation is now recognized as a significant driver of cognitive decline, depression, and avoidable hospitalization in older adults. Programs that structurally

e.......,._......-------- ---,
embed engagement into daily care reduce readmissions, support caregiver resilience, and delay the onset of institutionalization.

Los Altos is a community with one of the highest concentrations of older adults in Santa Clara County since more than 21% of residents are age 65 or older, and that proportion will continue to grow. El Camino Health is committed to strengthening the full continuum of care for this population, and we actively look to partner with community resources that extend ourclinical reach beyond our walls. The City of Los Altos has an opportunity to formalize that investment directly, through a contribution that keeps its residents healthy, connected, and at home.

I am also pleased to note that LOADS is actively expanding its outreach to Los Altos residents, whose work is well regarded in our clinical community. This kind of community-embedded approach reaching seniors through trusted, familiar ways is precisely how gaps in care are sustainably closed. With City support, I am confident that LOADS will grow its Los Altos enrollment meaningfully within the first year.

I offer my wholehearted endorsement of this application. Live Oak Adult Day Services represents exactly the kind of community-based, clinically informed, fiscally sound investment that strengthens a city's senior care infrastructure for the long term. I encourage the City Council to approve this funding and to welcome LOADS as a recognized community partner. Please feel free to contact me directly if I can provide further information in support of this application.

Sincerely,
