What motivated you to
apply to serve on the
Committee /
Commission?
What motivated me to apply is that I kept seeing the same pattern: decisions being made about students without students in the room. That is not something I felt right just watching. I have seen firsthand how much a local decision can shape what a student's day actually looks like, and I believe the people living those experiences have something real to contribute.
What drew me to this commission specifically is that it is one of the few places where young people can do more than voice concerns and hope someone listens. The fact that the
commission takes on one focused project each year stood out to me because it means there is a real chance to go deep on something that matters, see it through from start to finish, and make a tangible difference rather than just talking about one.
That kind of structure is where I think meaningful change actually happens, and it is what made me want to be part of it.
How many meetings
have you attended of
the Committee /
Commission for which
you are applying?
0 Please describe your
involvement in
community activities,
civic services, and
volunteer organizations.
I have spent over 100 hours tutoring children from low-income backgrounds in East Palo Alto, and that work taught me how much local decisions actually affect young people's lives.
Alongside that, I started my own project helping small
businesses in Los Altos with digital marketing. I am currently working with Growing Ivy, a local baby clothing store, helping the owner grow her customer base, and we are planning a free community event at my school that gives local kids something fun to do on the weekend while putting her business in front of more people. I am also updating the online presence for His and Hers Rock Gallery, as they have noted this is a key pain point for them. These projects have given me a real
understanding of what this community looks like from the
3 ground level, and that understanding is something I would carry directly into this role.
What skills and / or
attributes will you bring
to the Committee /
Commission you are
applying for?
I founded and run a financial literacy club at my school, which has taught me how to keep things organized and actually finish what I start. Our fundraiser raised close to $500 for
entrepreneurs who could not afford to get their ideas off the ground. Tutoring and mentoring have made me a better
listener, which matters when you are trying to represent students who do not all have the same experience. Right now I am coordinating a community event involving multiple
organizations, and that has taught me how to adjust when things change. These are the same skills that commission work requires, and I have already been putting them to use.
What particular area of
responsibility on this
Committee /
Commission interests
you?
Youth advocacy is where I want to direct my efforts because the gaps in support are real, and I have witnessed them firsthand. Santa Clara County data consistently identifies academic stress as the leading mental health concern among young people, yet there are almost no town-level programs in Los Altos Hills meaningfully addressing it. This is a serious oversight, particularly in a community where academic
pressure on students is exceptionally high. My experience tutoring younger students has demonstrated to me how
significantly a local decision, even a seemingly minor one, can shape what a student's daily experience looks like. Young people are uniquely positioned to identify these challenges because they are navigating them directly, and that perspective must be represented in the decision-making process. I want to be the person making sure students are part of shaping those decisions, not just affected by them.
Education Background
and Professional
Activities
Please state reasons
why you want to
become a member of
this Committee /
Commission, including
what specific objectives
you would be working
toward as a member.
I want to become a member of this commission because I
believe its work is only as effective as the voices informing it, and right now student voices are underrepresented. My specific objectives would be to elevate mental health as a priority issue, advocate for town programs that meaningfully address
academic stress, and ensure that student perspectives are consistently brought into deliberations. I would come prepared to each meeting, raise concerns the town may not already be considering, and follow through on commitments. I would also bring a perspective that few current commissioners can offer.
As a student, I can speak directly to what my peers
are experiencing, and those voices have largely been absent
4 from this commission. I want to help ensure this body reflects a fuller picture of Los Altos Hills youth.
Are you aware of any

Good Afternoon,
I received your application for Youth Commission that was completed early April. I know that to be appointed by the Council, you must volunteer for a Town event.
Did you volunteer for any station at the Town Picnic or the Pathway Run? If so, please let me know which one it was and your shift.
I will need to have this information as soon as possible so I can complete the staff report that is due to be published by early tomorrow.

TO: LAH City Council
SUBJECT: PUBLIC COMMENT. Item 2B City Council Meeting June 18, 2026 FROM: Sue Welch
DATE: June 18, 2026
___________________________________________________________________________ Honorable Mayor Bhateja and Council Members,
I respectfully request you to reappoint Planning Commissioners Alisa Bredo and Rajeev Patel to another term on the Planning Commission. State housing mandates are the most important issue the Town currently faces. During their tenure on the Commission, Bredo and Patel have developed in-depth working knowledge of the State housing bills as well as the LAH General Plan and zoning laws and standards.
They have worked with unflagging energy and creativity to adapt the one-size-fitsall State regulations to our unique Town. Their expertise is an invaluable resource that the Town should continue to utilize by reappointing them.
The current Commission works exceptionally well together. I have attended many PC meetings in person and have observed that Bredo and Patel are always wellprepared, listen to input from all (staff, consultants, applicants, residents), and work cooperatively and creatively to find solutions. Both also are making contributions beyond the meetings by serving on PC subcommittees.
During their time on the Commission, Bredo and Patel have always acted solely in the public interest, both in addressing the State mandates and reviewing individual development projects.
I understand the value of rotating Commissioners —in normal times. However, in our current circumstances, continuity of institutional knowledge is critical. Given the pressures and complexities of the State housing mandates, an exception must be made to retain these exceptionally skilled and knowledgeable Commissioners.
The state is not finished with us—new housing bills are still rolling out of Sacramento. Our Town needs a strong, experienced, highly knowledgeable Planning Commission. Please reappoint Alisa Bredo and Rajeev Patel.
Thank you for your consideration.

MEMORANDUM REPORT
Meeting Date: April 16, 2026
TO: Los Altos Hills City Council
FROM: J. Logan, General Manager Los Altos Hills County Fire District SUBJECT: Program Ideas for Los Altos Hills Priority Workplan Goals: Emergency Management Shared Services and Tree Hazard Assessment and Rebate Program
RECOMMENDATION:
Receive report to develop program ideas for Los altos Hills Priority Workplan Goals: Emergency Management Shared Services and Tree Hazard Assessment and Rebate Program. ______________________________________________________________________________
BACKGROUND
The Los Altos Hills (LAH) Acting City Manager and Los Altos Hills County Fire District (LAHCFD or Fire District) General Manager have been meeting to discuss topics and priorities to form partnerships for new programs that can provide community benefits to residents and fulfil the mission of the Fire District and address priority goals in the Los Altos Hills Town Workplan. Two identified priorities are, 1.) enhance the emergency management capacity of LAH Town to provide protection and resiliency for residents and, 2.) develop a program to address trees that can cause hazards.
These identified priorities need to be explored for development of an operational plan, budget and deliverables. A process also needs to be developed to analyze the goals, review options on how to proceed, form a clear understanding between the partners and keep the LAH Council and LAHCFD Board of Commissioners and Santa Clara County updated on a regular basis as to the progress made and steps underway. These objectives will be geared to the capacity of staff to dedicate hours and to manage the new programs along with the current and developing projects and activities already underway in each of the agencies.
DISCUSSION
LAHCFD General Manager is in conversation with the Santa Clara County Fire Department (SCCFD) To utilize personnel with over 10 years of emergency management experience to be assigned for a number of hours per week to the Fire District and provide shared services to the Town for various emergency management projects. The feasibility of this shared services resource is under consideration. Once a meeting occurs, more information will be forthcoming to share with the Council and Board of Commissioners.
The District understands that the Town wishes to provide services to residents related to trees and fire protection. This topic was introduced in April 2026 at the Collaboration Group that meets weekly.
The group has members from SCCFD, Town staff and LAHCFD staff. The goal for the collaboration is to develop a tree hazard assessment program to utilize principles of fire science and recent lessonslearned from communities who survived wildfire, along with adherence to the requirements for tree services provided by Santa Clara County Board of Supervisors. The District proposes working with

Fiscal impact to LAHCFD of the programs will need to be determine and funding arranged.

______________________________________________________________________________
BACKGROUND
On April 16, 2026, the Los Altos Hills County Fire District (LAHCFD) General Manager presented the Partnership for Two Programs (Programs) to the Los Altos Hills (LAH) City Council. The Partnership, which aims at enhancing emergency management services and addressing the tree hazard issues, was strongly encouraged by the Council. The General Manager presented the Partnership on April 21, 2026, at the Commission meeting for discussion and response to questions. The Commission, subsequently in the meeting, approved an adjustment to the FY26-27 Draft Budget as submitted on February 17, 2026, to increase Home Ignition Zone (HIZ) Program allocations by $109,000 to allow for the proposed Tree Hazard Assessment and Rebate Program, thereby increasing the HIZ line item to $600,000.
These actions have continued to progress, and the General Manager is now providing an update and is requesting direction from the Board of Commissioners to:
A. Determine a budget for Shared Services Personnel from Office of Emergency Management via Santa Clara County Fire District
B. Add a Tree Hazard Assessment and Rebate component to the District HIZ Assessment and Rebate Program
Updates on these Programs will be reported to the Board of Commissioners at future meetings. Once the details are finalized, recommendations to approve the two Programs will be presented for consideration and action by the Commission.
Agenda Item 8.A.
May 19, 2026 Partnership for Two Programs with Town of LAH, Report #2 2 | Page The Programs will then proceed to the County Board of Supervisors sitting as the Board of Directors for LAHCFD for final approval. The County Office of Budget and Analysis (OBA) is also being updated for the funding components for the Programs.
DISCUSSION
The Partnership
Program 1: Emergency Management Shared Services
On April 28, 2026, the LAHCFD General Manager, City Manager of Los Altos Hills, and personnel from County Office of Emergency Management (OEM) and Santa Clara County Fire Department (SCCFD) convened to discuss the overview of the shared services role.
Discussion included the background of staffing an emergency management function, current needs, compliance requirements, duties, time requirements, timelines for services, framework for an emergency management function and budget. The meeting included discussion with the OEM member who may provide the shared services to LAHCFD and Town of LAH.
The next steps in this process are to formulate the role and duties, time schedule for services and determine the LAHCFD budget allocations to fund the shared services resources. The General Manager and City Manager are convening to formalize these components for the position. Town of LAH emergency plans will be reviewed, and staff training will be included in the duties of the position. Hours for the shared position are being determined.
Program 2: Tree Hazard Assessment and Rebate
Funding for this program was established by the Commission at the April Commission meeting. The General Manager and HIZ staff convened to discuss the best practices for adding a Tree Hazard Assessment and Rebate Program to expand the HIZ program. The HIZ Advisory is under revision to include the definition and qualifications for the Tree hazard Assessment and Rebate Program.
The premise of identifying trees in the HIZ assessment is that trees can present hazards depending on various factors and circumstances. Healthy trees, regardless of species, have a place in the landscape and ecosystem. The Tree Hazard Assessment is not intended to advocate for tree removal; rather, it adds tree assessment into the mosaic of services so the HIZ can better address the unique situations encountered during the assessment with residents and educate residents as to the options available. The Advisory, once the revisions are concluded, will be presented to the Commission at a future meeting.
An additional premise of the Tree Hazard Assessment Program is to address concerns of residents about trees that can create hazards within Zone-0 and within the 100-foot Defensible Space surrounding structures, which may create wildfire risks to neighboring properties during a wildfire event. The Program will also recognize tree hazards along fence lines abutting neighbors’ homes and along driveways and private roadways of ingress and egress.
May 19, 2026 Partnership for Two Programs with Town of LAH, Report #2 3 | Page The Program is intended to engage residents and provide education for how to reduce wildfire risk on their property. The Program also intends to motivate residents to take action and to benefit from a partnership with LAHCFD. Through the partnership, the residents will receive HIZ assessment and education, and the ability to qualify for a rebate return on their cost once the resident completes the recommendations of the vegetation and tree hazard assessment. The benefits to LAHCFD are educating residents to take action, lowering risk of wildfire and protecting life and property safety. The metrics are growing to demonstrate the partnership of the dollars spent by residents and the rebates offered by LAHCFD encourage property wildfire risk reduction that affects the safety and resilience of neighborhoods and the community. This model of a tree hazard assessment program keenly distinguishes the community benefit features of tree hazard removal.
In summary, the two programs are ready to proceed and direction from the Commission to support these efforts is requested.
FISCAL IMPACT
Fiscal impact will be discussed and determined once a budget is recommended for approval and coordinated with the SCC County Office of Budget Analysis for adjustments as needed.
STRATEGIC PLAN IMPACT
The two partnership programs fulfill Strategic Plan Goal #1, Prevention, Protection, Resiliency to fund, develop and maintain programs to protect life, property and enhance safety to build a resilient community. Objective is to support reduction of hazardous fuels.
Strategies include the HIZ Program. The two partnership programs fulfill Strategic Plan Goal #4, Sustainability, Objective to expand and support regional collaboration & partnerships and to maximize best practices in programs and projects.

SUBJECT: Partnership for Two Programs with Town of Los Altos Hills RECOMMENDATION:
Receive report on a partnership for two programs with the Town of Los Altos Hills for Emergency Management Shared Services and Tree Hazard Assessment and Rebate. ______________________________________________________________________________
BACKGROUND
The Los Altos Hills (LAH) Acting City Manager and Los Altos Hills County Fire District (LAHCFD or Fire District) General Manager have been meeting to discuss topics and priorities to form a partnership for new programs that can provide community benefits to residents, fulfill the mission of the Fire District and address priority goals in the Los Altos Hills Town Workplan. Two identified priorities are: (1) enhance the emergency management capacity of LAH to provide protection and resiliency for residents; and (2) develop a program to address trees that can cause hazards.
These two identified priorities need to be explored for development of an operational plan, budget and deliverables. A process also needs to be developed to analyze the goals, review options on how to proceed, form a clear understanding between the partners and keep the LAH Council, LAHCFD Board of Commissioners and Santa Clara County updated on a regular basis as to the progress made and steps underway. These objectives will be geared to the capacity of staff to dedicate hours and to manage the new programs along with the current and developing projects and activities already underway in each of the agencies.
The LAHCFD General Manager presented the partnership for two programs to the LAH City Council on April 16, 2026. The partnership aimed at enhancing emergency management services and addressing the tree hazard issues were strongly encouraged by the Council. The General Manager immediately added the partnership to the April 21st Commission Meeting agenda packet. The Service Area teams discussed the items, and a request was made to the Finance Service Area for a budget modification to allocate funds to the FY2026-2027 Draft Budget that was submitted to the Office of Business Analysis on February 17, 2026.

DISCUSSION
The Partnership
Program 1: Emergency Management Shared Services
The LAHCFD General Manager continues conversations with the Santa Clara County Fire Department (SCCFD) and County Office of Emergency Management (OEM) to utilize their staff member with over ten years of emergency management experience to be assigned for a number of hours per week to the LAHCFD and thereby provide shared services to the Town for various emergency management projects. A meeting is scheduled with the Town Acting City Manager and the Fire Chief. LAHCFD will coordinate the shared services staff with OEM and the parties will collaborate to develop the program.
Program 2: Tree Hazard Assessment and Rebate
The District understands that the Town wishes to provide services to residents related to tree hazards and fire protection. This topic was introduced in April 2026 at the weekly Collaboration Group meeting. The group has members from the Santa Clara Fire Department, Town staff and LAHCFD staff. The goal for the collaboration is to develop a tree hazard assessment and rebate program which will utilize principles of fire science, recent lessons learned from communities who survived wildfire, and adherence to the requirements provided by the Santa Clara County Board of Supervisors for a tree program. The District proposes working with the Collaboration Group to develop a tree hazard assessment and rebate program and report back at future Council and LAHCFD Commission meetings.
A Tree Hazard Assessment and Rebate program will nicely fit into the current LAHCFD Home Ignition Zone (HIZ) and Rebate Program. It is also a timely enhancement to the HIZ program based on current trends and regulations related to the Zone 0 CA regulations and Department of Insurance guidelines for mitigation of fire hazards in the 100 foot Zone of structures.
Members of the HIZ Service Area team are also members of the Collaboration Group thereby convening an on-going forum of collaboration for discussion and development to expand the HIZ Program to now include tree hazard assessments and rebates. The Collaboration Group members include the Office of the Fire Marshal, Fire Operations, Town Community Development staff and a LAHCFD team. The Collaboration team was formed to develop comprehensive and collaborative partnership programs that address fire risk problems and propose solutions promulgated from various expert perspectives.
Fiscal Impact and Authority
The Fiscal impact to LAHCFD to allocate funds for the two partnership programs will be discussed in the meeting tonight under Agenda Item 11.A. Both partnership programs will require transparency and completing administrative procedures at the County level and for approval of the County Board of Supervisors.
It is anticipated that the emergency management shared services position will require a MOA (Memorandum of Agreement) to the 10-year Fire and Emergency Medical Services Agreement between LAHCFD and SCCFD, review by the County and approval by the County Board of Supervisors.
April 21, 2026 Partnership for Two Programs with Town of LAH 3 | Page The Tree Hazard Assessment and Rebate Program will require additional LAHCFD fund allocation and a draft budget modification that will require County review and approval by the County Board of Supervisors.
The administrative path to implementing the two programs will require solid organization, participation of the partners, stated goals and deliverables and demonstration of community benefits that are based on fire science and supported by subject matter experts within SCCFD and OEM.
The LAHCFD General Manager is in the process of developing these administrative procedures to ensure transparency and accountability for the use of public funds for these two partnership programs that will be recommended for approval to the County Board of Supervisors.
FISCAL IMPACT
Fiscal impact will be discussed and determined in Agenda Item 11.A. to follow this agenda item.

Meeting Date: April 16, 2026
TO: Los Altos Hills City Council
FROM: J. Logan, General Manager Los Altos Hills County Fire District SUBJECT: Program Ideas for Los Altos Hills Priority Workplan Goals: Emergency Management Shared Services and Tree Hazard Assessment and Rebate Program
RECOMMENDATION:
Receive report to develop program ideas for Los altos Hills Priority Workplan Goals: Emergency Management Shared Services and Tree Hazard Assessment and Rebate Program. ______________________________________________________________________________
BACKGROUND
The Los Altos Hills (LAH) Acting City Manager and Los Altos Hills County Fire District (LAHCFD or Fire District) General Manager have been meeting to discuss topics and priorities to form partnerships for new programs that can provide community benefits to residents and fulfil the mission of the Fire District and address priority goals in the Los Altos Hills Town Workplan. Two identified priorities are, 1.) enhance the emergency management capacity of LAH Town to provide protection and resiliency for residents and, 2.) develop a program to address trees that can cause hazards.
These identified priorities need to be explored for development of an operational plan, budget and deliverables. A process also needs to be developed to analyze the goals, review options on how to proceed, form a clear understanding between the partners and keep the LAH Council and LAHCFD Board of Commissioners and Santa Clara County updated on a regular basis as to the progress made and steps underway. These objectives will be geared to the capacity of staff to dedicate hours and to manage the new programs along with the current and developing projects and activities already underway in each of the agencies.
DISCUSSION
LAHCFD General Manager is in conversation with the Santa Clara County Fire Department (SCCFD) To utilize personnel with over 10 years of emergency management experience to be assigned for a number of hours per week to the Fire District and provide shared services to the Town for various emergency management projects. The feasibility of this shared services resource is under consideration. Once a meeting occurs, more information will be forthcoming to share with the Council and Board of Commissioners.
The District understands that the Town wishes to provide services to residents related to trees and fire protection. This topic was introduced in April 2026 at the Collaboration Group that meets weekly.
The group has members from SCCFD, Town staff and LAHCFD staff. The goal for the collaboration is to develop a tree hazard assessment program to utilize principles of fire science and recent lessonsATTACHMENT 1

Subject: Public Comment Item / Request for the annexation of the remaining sections of Mora Drive Dear Mayor and Members of the Los Altos Hills (LAH) Town Council, My name is Rosemarie Nahm. I live at Mora Drive. I have been living on Mora since 2011. In 2012, the upper section of Mora, including my house, was annexed to LAH. Since then, only five more houses on Mora were annexed to LAH and our street of less than 1/4 mile long, from the top of Mora Drive to Eastbrook, remains split between unincorporated County and LAH. This is really disappointing as the annexation of Mora Drive was discussed and anticipated since 2000 when the Town entered into the Sanitary Sewer Project Extension Agreement ("Sewer Extension Agreement") with 28 Mora Drive property owners ("Original Signatories"). This agreement is explained in greater detail below. I am writing to you to request that you take all necessary actions to allow for the annexation of the remaining sections of Mora to happen as soon as possible.
I am attaching a copy of the Mora Drive Sewer Service Area Map which I have color-coded for you to refer to as a visual guide:
Yellow line: Section of Mora Drive at issue, from Eastbrook to the top of Mora Drive, which appears at the bottom of the map
Red area: Properties contiguous to Mora Drive that remain in unincorporated County Blue areas: Properties on two adjacent streets, Terry Way and the private driveway of Mora, that remain in unincorporated County.
Background:
As mentioned above, the Town and 28 Mora Drive property owners, also referred to as the Original Signatories in this letter, entered into the Sewer Extension Agreement in 2000 under which, the Original Signatories agreed to pay for the installation of the Mora Drive sewer line, and the Town agreed to own, ITEM 3 Public Comment
2 maintain and repair the sewer line and to provide sewer service to the Signatories "as if the Property Owners were situated within the city limits of Town."
Under the Sewer Extension Agreement, the parties fully anticipated and expected that all 28 properties would be annexed to LAH eventually. This is made clear by Section 1.05 of the Sewer Extension Agreement where the 28 property owners expressly "waive their right to protest an annexation". The only reason why the annexation did not happen right away is because many properties were not contiguous to a Town property at the time. There is no longer a contiguity issue for annexing the remaining sections of Mora.
Of the 28 Original Signatories who signed the Sewer Extension Agreement, there are still 9 property owners (and possibly more as several lots have been further subdivided) whose properties remain in unincorporated County. It's been 26 years since that agreement was signed. It's long overdue for the Town to honor the intent and spirit of the Sewer Extension Agreement. I respectfully request that the Town annex all remaining properties on Mora Drive, identified by Red and Blue outline areas in the attached map.
What's most upsetting is that while our short stretch of Mora Drive remains split between two jurisdictions, other properties that are not contiguous to Mora Drive, nor owned by the Original Signatories, have connected to the Mora Drive sewer line and have been annexed to the Town, willy nilly. Based on LAFCO's record, since 2012, the following properties that are NOT contiguous to Mora Drive have been annexed to the Town:
Mora Glen Drive No. 1 (recorded 9/7/2016)
Mora Heights Way No. 1 (recorded 5/7/2018)
Mora Heights Way No. 2 (recorded 5/7/2018)
Mora Heights Way No. 3 (recorded 8/27/18)
Splitting Up of Mora Drive in Two Jurisdictions Poses Numerous Challenges for the Residents:
- Our short street is split between two different jurisdictions with very different building codes and regulations. For example, the County has no tree ordinance while LAH has a strict ordinance for heritage oak trees. The difference in the tree regulations has already allowed the recent buyer of a property at the bottom of Mora at 11185 Mora Drive to chop down numerous heritage trees, leaving a gaping hole at that corner. The vast differences between the two jurisdictions in other building codes and regulations are even more worrisome and threaten the uniform character of our short street. - We are serviced by two separate public works departments, which portend ridiculous outcomes. As you can see by the Red outline area in the lower section of Mora, one side of the street is in unincorporated County and the other side of the street is in LAH. If a storm drain gets clogged, will the County and the Town fight over whose half of the street is clogged? When the street is due for a repaving, will the Town pave just half of the bottom half of Mora Drive and the County do the other half? - We are serviced by two separate garbage companies. Every week, Mora Drive residents have to endure the noise and disruptions of two garbage days because the County and LAH contract with different garbage companies. Two days of curbside garbage bins strewn around the street also means more traffic hazards on our already hilly, narrow, windy street shared by hikers, bikers and cars. - Law enforcement relating to traffic accidents are split between CHP and the County Sheriff. I inadvertently found out about this unusual jurisdictional difference when there was a collision between a hiker and a biker down in lower Mora. The collision occurred in lower Mora, right near where a property in
3 LAH abuts a property in unincorporated County. Even the CHP officer who reported to the scene acknowledged the strangeness of this confusing jurisdictional division.
Recap:
The intent and spirit of the Sewer Extension Agreement was to annex all of Mora Drive and its two adjacent streets. It's been 26 years since the Town signed that Agreement and our short street of less than 1/4 mile long remains split between unincorporated County and the Town. In the meanwhile, at least four other properties that had no part in the Sewer Extension Agreement and are not contiguous to Mora Drive have connected to the Mora Drive sewer line and have been annexed to the Town. The Town must uphold the original intent and spirit of the Sewer Extension Agreement by completing the annexation of the remaining sections of Mora Drive as soon as possible.
At least nine of the original 28 properties (and possibly more once we do the math relating to those properties that have been subdivided since 2000) remain in unincorporated County.
If you break up the requested annexation sections on Mora into three parts, the math for the passage of the annexation is as follows:
- Red outline area: Total 8 properties. 5 are Original Signatories who waived their right to protest an annexation. Annexation WILL pass with a majority.
- Blue outline area for Terry Way: Total 7 properties. 2 are Original Signatories. One property owner is interested in connecting to the Mora Drive sewer line. Just one more property owner needs to approve the annexation to pass with a majority.
- Blue outline area for the private driveway of Mora: 3 Original Signatories were from this section. However, since 2000, additional lot splits and subdivisions have been created. Further study will need to be done to understand the current makeup of the property owners and how many qualify as Original Signatories. I am happy to meet with you and/or the Town staff to assist in this investigation.
Requested Actions:
1) Instruct Town staff to study the annexation of Mora Drive as soon as possible and recommend what actions are necessary to complete the annexation.
2) Upon completion of #1, take all necessary actions to proceed with the annexation of the remaining sections of Mora Drive as soon as possible.
I hope you will take this matter that has been overlooked for far too long and give it the attention that it deserves. I will be speaking during the public comment period at the June 18 meeting. Please feel free to address any comments or questions then. Or, I would be happy to meet with you individually to discuss this matter further.
In the interest of time, I am not attaching the underlying agreements except for the color-coded map of Mora Drive. To the extent that the Town staff does not have access to the other agreements, I am happy to provide them upon request.
Thank you!

TO: Mayor Rajiv Bhateja
FROM: Rosemarie Nahm (10869 Mora Dr, LAH) with help with historical background by Hal and MaryJo Feeney (11030 Mora Dr, LAH)
DATE: June 1, 2026 (UPDATED)
RE: Mora Drive Sewer Agreements / LAH Must Complete Annexing the Entire Mora Drive and Adjacent Cul-de-Sacs from Upper Mora to Eastbrook
Relevant Documents and Agreements
- Mora Drive Sewer Project Sanitary Sewer Extension Agreement from 2000-2001;
- Mora Drive Sewer Project Reimbursement Agreement dated November 20, 2003 and Exhibits C and D thereof;
- LAFCO and LAFCO Resolution #2007-04; and
All referenced documents are attached.
Issue: The sewer extension line on Mora Drive was installed and paid for by 28 property owners on or adjacent to Mora Drive in 2001. In connection to the sewer extension and installation, LAH entered into two agreements with the 28 property owners: the Sewer Extension Agreement in 2001 and Sewer Reimbursement Agreement in 2003. The Extension Agreement which sets out the terms of the installation and maintenance, explicitly and implicitly anticipated LAH to annex all 28 properties. It’s been 25 years since that sewer extension was installed but the 28 properties have not been fully annexed to LAH. Instead, our short stretch of Mora Drive (less than ¼ mile long) and the two cul-de-sacs branching from Mora Drive are splintered between LAH and unincorporated County, creating enormous practical issues. We are governed by two very different sets of building and code requirements, vastly different tree regulations, serviced by two different garbage companies on different days, and traffic violations and accidents are enforced by two different law enforcement agencies - CHP for the unincorporated area and County Sheriff’s office for properties in LAH.
Initially, the 28 properties could not be annexed because they were not contiguous to a LAH property. Over the years, about 18 of the 28 original properties have been annexed. The contiguity issue is no longer a barrier to the complete annexation of the entire Mora Drive and its adjacent cul-de-sacs. LAH needs to honor the original intent of the Extension Agreement and annex all of Mora Drive and the two adjacent cul-de-sacs as soon as possible.
Background:
The Extension Agreement explicitly and implicitly anticipated LAH to annex all 28 properties of the original installers.
Extension Agreement, Section 1.05, states:
“All parties to be served by the Mora Drive Sewer Project Sanitary Sewer Extension agree not to oppose annexation should the Town or the Property Owners or the County initiate annexation proceedings. Property Owners who sign this agreement hereby waive their protest rights when annexation is proposed for the area.” (Emphasis added).
In 2007, LAFCO, the County agency that has the power to approve municipal utility services and jurisdictional issues such as annexation, further resolved that “LAFCO will NOT accept any further out of agency contract for services applications from the Town of LAH until the Mora Drive area and the subject parcel [10700 Mora Dr.] are annexed to the Town.” Emphasis added. The term “Mora Drive area” refers to the initial 28 properties whose owners signed the Extension Agreement and the Reimbursement Agreement.
Furthermore, the Extension Agreement made it clear that property owners other than the original 28 property owners, could connect to the Mora Drive sewer line only upon applying to, and getting approval from, LAFCO AND getting annexed to LAH.
Extension Agreement Section 1.06, states:
“Other Property Owners (“Others”) on or adjacent to Mora Drive and its vicinity, who are not signatories of this Agreement, will only be entitled to connect to any portion of the sewer extension at a later date, as long as such Others apply to the County of Santa Clara Local Agency Formation Commission (“LAFCO”) and become the subject to the LAFCO review and approval process and abide by the applicable statutes of the Town, the City of Los Altos and the County of Santa Clara, prior to annexation of said properties to Town.” Emphasis added.
Despite Section 1.06 explicitly requiring LAFCO review and approval and the “annexation of properties to Town”, we are learning that property owners other than the original 28 have connected to the Mora Drive sewer line without applying to LAFCO for its review and approval and not getting annexed to LAH.
According to both Daniel Liang of LAH and Neelima Palarcherla, an executive with LAFCO, no property owner other than the original 28 have submitted applications to LAFCO for the OACS. Instead, the property owners have connected to the sewer line through the Urban Service Area (USA) process under which unincorporated County residents can connect to a nearby sewer line without applying for an OACS application with LAFCO.
We were not aware of, and are deeply concerned about, the USA process.
The USA process essentially bypasses the entire LAFCO approval and annexation procedure that was the foundation of the Extension Agreement.
Under the USA process, a property owner who is still in unincorporated County areas can connect to the Mora Drive sewer line without being required to get annexed to LAH as the Extension Agreement clearly requires. As a result, the original 28 properties are still not all annexed to LAH. This was NOT the result that was intended by the parties! We respectfully ask that LAH acknowledge and honor the intent of the Extension Agreement and annex all remaining properties on Mora Drive, namely, lower Mora Dr., private driveway Mora Drive in upper Mora, and
Terry Way, as soon as possible. Recall, the Extension Agreement prohibits the original 28 property owners from protesting an annexation proposal.
We believe each of the three annexation areas (lower Mora, private driveway Mora and Terry Way) has a sufficient number of the original 28 property owners such that annexation will pass.

E. Presentation from the Pathway Committee on the 2 options for the DeAnza Trail (Pathway Committee Chair: N. Erndt)
Nick Erndt, Chair of the Pathways Committee, presented recommendations for routing the Juan Bautista de Anza Historic Trail either through or around Los Altos Hills. The committee evaluated connections between Rhus Ridge Trailhead and the Pearson-Arastradero Preserve area.
One option would route the trail through the Town along existing major roads and pathways, including Moody Road, Purissima Road, and Arastradero Road, providing a relatively flat and accessible route that highlighted community features.
The second option would be to route the trail around the Town using existing regional trail systems through open space preserves west of town, creating a more scenic but steeper hiking
City Council Regular Meeting Minutes Page 3 of 37
May 14, 2026
experience. Erndt stated that both options were considered reasonable alternatives for the city’s consideration.
Councilmember Tankha expressed her support for the trail route through the open space preserves, stating that it reflected the character of Los Altos Hills. She asked about the pros and cons of each option.
Mr. Erndt responded that the primary tradeoff between the two options was accessibility. He explained that the preserve route provided a more strenuous, backpacking-style hiking experience similar in feel to the Pacific Coast Trail but offered less access to public transportation and support services. In contrast, the in-town route provided easier access and support along the way.
Councilmember Mok asked whether hikers on the Juan Bautista de Anza Historic Trail would camp in Los Altos Hills similarly to hikers on the Pacific Coast Trail.
Mr. Erndt responded that the trail is intended primarily as an additional recreational trail system rather than a long-distance camping route and noted that, while it intersects with the Pacific Coast Trail in some areas, it is a separate trail system without a defined camping framework.
Vice Mayor Tyson asked whether there had been any discussion or pushback regarding Juan Bautista de Anza’s historical role in colonization and treatment of Indigenous peoples.
Mr. Erndt acknowledged that the committee had discussed negative historical associations related to DeAnza and noted that there had been some pushback on those grounds. He stated that the Council could consider those concerns in determining whether and how to support the trail, while the committee had primarily focused on identifying the safest and most practical route options for potential trail users.
Councilmember Swan stated that most hikers would likely choose the shorter, flatter route through Los Altos Hills rather than a longer, more strenuous alternative. She noted that the intown route followed major roads and would have minimal impact on residents, and that historical interpretation (including plaques) could address the trail’s significance without determining its alignment. She expressed support for the flatter, more direct route through town, believing it would be the most practical option.
Mayor Bhateja asked whether there would be any cost to the Town for implementing the trail.
Councilmember Swan responded that the National Park Service would provide the signage, and the Town would be responsible only for installation, similar to existing trail signage such as the “no bikes” signs.
PUBLIC COMMENTS
1. Sue Welch, a Los Altos Hills resident, stated she could not access clear information on the route options and raised concerns about a National Park Service map showing a trail alignment through Byrne Preserve and private lands. She questioned how that route was included and requested it be removed, citing concerns about private property easements and lack of council approval. She expressed support for the on-road route through town, noting
City Council Regular Meeting Minutes Page 4 of 37
May 14, 2026
it would have less residential impact, and briefly commented on the historical context of the expedition.
Mr. Erndt noted that the committee had prior communications with the National Park Service regarding the mapped routes. He explained that the Pathways Committee’s goal over the past year and a half had been to identify reasonable and appropriate alignments for the City, and that both proposed options were intended to avoid routing through private property or backyard areas, including Byrne Preserve where possible. He stated that the committee aimed to provide a clear, direct, and appropriate route for submission to the National Park Service.
Councilmember Swan stated that the National Park Service would likely determine its own routing unless the Town clearly designates its preferred alignment. She emphasized that this process was an opportunity for the Town to establish its intended route rather than simply accept existing map representations.
Mayor Bhateja CLOSED PUBLIC COMMENTS and entertained a motion from the Council.
MOTION MADE AND SECONDED: Councilmember Swan motioned to APPROVE the flatter pathway, Option 1, for the National Park Service trail going through the Town for the DeAnza Trail.
The motion was seconded by Vice Mayor Tyson.

3. PRESENTATIONS FROM THE FLOOR
1. Malika Junaid, Planning Commissioner, thanked the Council for including the Planning Commission in the Housing Element Committee process. She noted that the Commission was awaiting clarification on meeting schedules and time commitments before assigning a liaison member to the committee.
2. Dave Kehlet, a Mora Drive resident, reported that he and his neighbor had resolved a longstanding nine-year dispute related to the Los Altos Hills View and Sunlight Obstruction from Trees Ordinance. He requested that the Council, Planning Commission, and EDPC ensure that both sides of neighbor disputes are considered when such issues are brought forward, noting that prior proceedings had largely proceeded without input from his side. He encouraged residents to maintain direct communication and resolve disagreements early to preserve goodwill. Kehlet stated that the View Ordinance functioned as intended by preventing litigation and avoiding enforcement difficulties, and he expressed support for keeping the ordinance unchanged.
3. Laura Birdsall, Director of Medical and Behavior Services at Pets in Need, introduced the organization as the Town’s municipal animal shelter partner through the Palo Alto Animal Shelter Partnership. She described Pets in Need as a nonprofit serving the Peninsula and Bay Area for over 60 years, providing sheltering, adoption, foster care, veterinary and behavioral services, vaccine clinics, and pet food support. She noted the organization serves nearly 9,800 animals annually and invited Council and residents to visit and tour their facilities. Birdsall emphasized their role as a broader community resource for animal care and support and mentioned an upcoming event on June 13, 2026.
4. Chelsea Denton, Director of Development and Marketing for Pets in Need, announced an upcoming Pet Care Assistance Day on June 13 offering vaccines, microchips, deworming treatments, and preventative care services. She invited Councilmembers, residents, and community members to visit the shelter and learn more about its programs and volunteer opportunities. Denton also announced the organization’s annual fundraising event, “Party Like an Animal,” scheduled for September 13 at the Ameswell Hotel.
City Manager Einfalt confirmed with Mayor Bhateja that the Pets in Need information will be shared in the upcoming weekly newsletter.
Councilmember Swan asked what types of animals they microchipped and asked if they did horses. Ms. Denton responded that they microchipped dogs, cats, and rabbits, but not horses.
Mayor Bhateja noted that there was a Kiwanis Pet Parade occurring this Saturday.
Councilmember Mok noted that their shelter was categorized as a “no-kill” shelter and asked what that meant. Ms. Denton responded that Pets in Need’s “no-kill” status was measured by its live release rate, which reflects the percentage of animals leaving the shelter alive through adoption, return to owner, or transfer. She stated that the organization currently has a 96% live release rate, exceeding the 90% benchmark for no-kill shelters, and noted that Pets in Need serves as the municipal shelter for Palo Alto, Los Altos, and Los Altos Hills.
Mayor Bhateja CLOSED PRESENTATIONS FROM THE FLOOR.

4. INFORMATIONAL REPORTS (ITEMS ARE FOR INFORMATIONAL PURPOSES ONLY) A. Treasurer’s Report (Staff: T. Leung)
B. Disbursement Report (Staff: T. Leung)
C. Quarterly Investment Report (Staff: T. Leung)
Finance Director Leung noted that ITEM 4 contained reports that were for informational purposes only and did not require a staff report.
Mayor Bhateja then introduced ITEM 11A from the agenda for discussion.
5. CONSENT CALENDAR
Mayor Bhateja asked councilmembers if there were any items they wished to pull from the CONSENT CALENDAR. He identified ITEM K regarding the Magdalena Road Pathway Project and ITEM Q regarding the Selectron contract for removal from the consent calendar for separate discussion.
The City Attorney stated that, pursuant to Government Code Section 54953, the Town was required to publicly report the proposed compensation for the City Manager employment agreement included in Consent Calendar, ITEM P. The reported annual salary for Mr. Einfalt was $282,000.
Mayor Bhateja OPENED PUBLIC COMMENT on the Consent Calendar.
PUBLIC COMMENT
1. Allan Epstein commented on Consent Calendar Items J and N. Regarding Item J, he opposed implementing an automatic cost-of-living adjustment policy, stating that such policies reduced flexibility, rewarded non-performance, and limited funds available for merit-based increases.
Regarding Item N, he expressed concern that the engineer’s estimate for the sanitary sewer repair project had been significantly underestimated and noted that some proposed line segments could not proceed due to pending permits from water agencies. He recommended revisiting the project scope, obtaining the necessary permits, and discussing with the contractor whether pricing could be held for a future phase of work.
Mayor Bhateja asked about concerns that the engineer’s estimate for the sanitary sewer repair project appeared to be approximately twice the awarded bid amount. Director Kim responded that the Town had hired a consultant to prepare the design and estimate, and that the consultant had used a very conservative approach due to the complexity of the project, including sewer segments requiring deep trench work. He explained that engineer’s estimates are generally based on average anticipated bids rather than the lowest possible bid and noted that the selected bid came in significantly lower than expected, which staff viewed positively.
2. Jill Grunwald asked whether residents who are not connected to the sewer system would receive any form of compensation related to the sewer capital projects. Director Kim responded that the sewer capital projects are funded through sewer rates, indicating that compensation would not apply to residents who are not part of the sewer system.
3. John O’Connell, commenting on ITEM I on the Consent Calendar, expressed concerns, which involved waiving the reading and adopting the ordinance related to zoning modifications. He noted that during the previous meeting, there were unresolved questions about whether the
City Council Regular Meeting Minutes Page 8 of 37
May 14, 2026
Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) would accept certain provisions.
Mr. O’Connell stated that adopting the ordinance without first receiving an updated report or informing the public of the final content was inappropriate. He recommended that the item be presented fully, the ordinance read before adoption, and ultimately suggested that the item be pulled from consideration.
Director Bradford explained that multiple attempts had been made to contact the Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) and the director responsible for reviewing housing elements. The city also worked through a consultant who had a strong relationship with HCD and had heard back regarding other projects, but responses related to this specific matter largely went unanswered.
Mayor Bhateja sought clarification on whether a response had officially been received regarding the issue, specifically concerning the proposed 0.5-acre versus 0.75-acre minimum standard.
Director Bradford stated that the only communication received was a text message relayed through the consultant advising the city to keep the minimum lot size requirement at 0.5 acres rather than increasing it to 0.75 acres.
Mayor Bhateja CLOSED PUBLIC COMMENTS.
Mayor Bhateja asked if any of the councilmembers wished to pull ITEM I from the Consent Calendar. There was some discussion about the timing of this item and the city attorney clarified that they needed to take act tonight.
MOTION MADE AND SECONDED: Vice Mayor Tyson motioned to APPROVE Consent items, except for Items K and Q.
The motion was seconded by Councilmember Swan.

Kim)
Mayor Bhateja noted that the City had received communications from residents regarding the Summerhill Pathway and invited Council members to share any comments or perspectives on the feedback received from the community thus far.
Councilmember Swan stated that, based on her understanding from the Pathways Committee, funding for the Summerhill Pathway project had already been allocated, but the project could not yet move forward because all necessary permits had not been secured. She explained that the proposal appeared to temporarily shift some of the allocated funds away from the project until it was ready to proceed, with the expectation that the funding would be restored once the Summerhill project was prepared to move forward. Swan emphasized that the project was long overdue.
Vice Mayor Tyson expressed support for shifting funds to advance pathway projects that are currently ready to proceed, stating that the report’s logic made sense. However, he echoed Councilmember Swan’s concerns about the long-delayed Summerhill Pathway project, noting that he understood residents’ frustrations after many years of discussion. Tyson emphasized the importance of not signaling that the project was being deprioritized and urged continued efforts to move it forward. He also offered to assist in working with the county to help navigate and accelerate the complex permitting process so the pathway project could proceed.
Councilmember Mok noted that the Summerhill Pathway has been under discussion for a very long time, recalling that it was first raised with him about seven years ago and is still not completed. He expressed support for moving the project forward and indicated he would be satisfied if progress could be made to advance it in a meaningful way.
City Council Regular Meeting Minutes Page 10 of 37
May 14, 2026
Mayor Bhateja raised concern about the cost of the Magdalena pathway project, noting that it worked out to over $1.7 million per mile, which was significantly higher than the $1 million per mile estimate from the Nexus study on pathways–about 70% above expectations.
Councilmember Swan asked for clarification on which pathway was being referenced, and the Mayor confirmed it was the Magdalena pathway proposal.
Mayor Bhateja then requested further insight from Mr. Kim regarding the reasons for the higherthan-expected cost.
Director Kim explained that the cost discrepancy related to the Magdalena pathway was tied to how the overall asset estimates were calculated in the Nexus study for pathway impact fees. He clarified that the system includes both roadside and off-road pathways, but the Magdalena project specifically involves a roadside pathway, which is typically more expensive. He noted that roadside pathways require additional construction elements such as imported materials like quarry fines and header boards, which increase costs. As a result, while the Nexus study reflects a blended cost of different pathway types, this project reflects only the higher-cost roadside component, explaining why its per-mile cost is greater than the earlier estimate.
Councilmember Tankha recused herself at this time in the discussion, citing she lives on Magdalena. She left the dais until the discussion of Item K was completed.
Mayor Bhateja asked whether the same consultant used for the sewer study had been used to estimate the cost of the pathway project. Director Kim responded that the estimate was prepared in-house and was based on bids received two years earlier for work similar to the Concepcion, La Paloma pathway projects. He explained that the site conditions for the current project would also require retaining walls and extensive clearing and grubbing, contributing to higher costs. The estimate was developed by averaging past bids, which had shown a wide range. He noted that the approach was intentionally conservative to avoid underestimating costs, though in the future they might consider using a lower percentile of bids for more refined estimates.
Mayor Bhateja OPENED PUBLIC COMMENT for Item K.
PUBLIC COMMENTS
1. Carol Gottlieb stated that she supported temporarily reallocating funds to the Magdalena pathway as long as the funding was returned for the Summerhill Pathway project. She described concerns about traffic and safety on her street, noting it functions as a connector road with frequent speeding and limited enforcement due to jurisdictional complexities between the Town and county areas. Ms. Gottlieb expressed hope that some progress would be made on Summerhill within the next year. She also pointed out what she saw as an inconsistency in how the projects were being handled, noting that Magdalena would proceed despite missing segments, while Summerhill would not, and concluded by expressing willingness to have a pathway built on her property.
2. Cheryl Evans shared a personal account of living at the corner of Mira Loma and Summerhill for 13 years, during which her two children had no safe route to school and were forced to walk in the street. She explained that she and her family had been waiting for the Summerhill pathway for a total of 26 years and had since moved away. Ms. Evans described the area as dangerous for pedestrians, citing repeated vehicle accidents on the hill, including cars losing
City Council Regular Meeting Minutes Page 11 of 37
May 14, 2026
control on the curve and crashing into a nearby lot. She emphasized the safety risks faced by children in the area and urged the council to complete the pathway without further delay.
3. John O’Connell questioned the pathway cost estimates, arguing that $1.7 million per mile seemed high compared to other public pathway projects and suggesting the city’s financial review process needed more scrutiny. He said the issue was not cost per mile but how many miles could actually be built and urged a more practical approach focused on maximizing construction within a set budget rather than spending more for less progress.
4. Allan Epstein said the proposed pathway seems overestimated in cost, noting much of the route is already usable with only a couple of challenging properties needing work. He criticized design standards as outdated or unnecessary, pointed to poor maintenance of existing Magdalena pathways, and argued the Town should only address the most difficult segments rather than build the full project at high cost. He also noted no new pathways had been built this fiscal year.
Councilmember Swan responded to comments about roughing up the pathways, stating that even if horses were not commonly seen on Magdalena, riders were still allowed and could use the area. She shared a personal experience in which her horse slipped on a seal-coated surface that had not been properly roughened, causing the horse to fall with her, and emphasized safety concerns as the reason for the requirement. She added that horses were permitted anywhere in town, so their presence could not be ruled out.
Allan Epstein replied that he had not seen a horse in the area for 30 years.
Mayor Bhateja CLOSED PUBLIC COMMENT.
MOTION MADE AND SECONDED: Councilmember Swan motioned to APPROVE the Capital Budget Reallocations of $42,567 of Pathways Fund from the Summerhill Pathway and $45,136 of Transportation Development Act Article 3 Fund from the Miscellaneous Pathways to the Magdalena Road Pathway Project; Approving the Plans and Specifications for the Magdalena Road Pathway Project; and Authorizing Staff to Advertise the Project for Formal Bid.

Mayor Bhateja stated that the cost of the pathways, particularly the $1.7 million per mile estimate, was in his view excessive and noted strong resident concerns about the Summerhill Pathway project.
He asked Director Kim to explain the city’s plans moving forward.
Director Kim responded that staff had been coordinating with the Pathway Committee and actively following up with the county regarding the status of a response letter related to ADA compliance concerns for the Summerhill Pathway. He said the county had not yet responded, as they were
City Council Regular Meeting Minutes Page 12 of 37

reportedly consulting with their county attorney, and he committed to continuing follow-up, noting potential support from Vice Mayor Tyson.
Mayor Bhateja requested a report at the next council meeting. Director Kim agreed to provide an update, and City Manager Einfalt added that the item could be placed on a future agenda and that he would also apply additional pressure through county contacts, including arranging a meeting with a supervisor.

Q. Resolution Authorizing the City Manager to Execute a Contract with Selectron Technologies, Inc. to Purchase an Automatic Notification and Online Inspection Scheduling Software for a Total Purchase Price of $100,000 (Staff: J. Bradford)
Mayor Bhateja discussed Item Q, the contract with Selectron Technologies, noting that staff had recommended Option 3, a five-year agreement. However, he expressed preference for Option 2, which would allow a three-year no-penalty exit clause for a slightly higher cost of about $3,000.
He explained that, given the rapid pace of technological change, the flexibility to exit earlier could be beneficial if better or less expensive solutions became available. He also noted that the Technology Committee had raised concerns about committing to a five-year contract. He then recommended proceeding with Option 2, which was for a 5-year contract with a 3-year no-penalty exit clause and asked whether staff had any objections or concerns.
Director Bradford explained that staff had originally recommended Option 3 due to fiscal constraints in the current fiscal year budget. However, given the Council’s direction toward Option 2, the contract would need to be revised and returned for approval at a future meeting, likely delaying implementation until the next fiscal year. He noted that, as a result of this timing change, the previous budget-related concerns would no longer be an issue.

A. Consideration and Direction on a Draft Initiative Measure Regarding the “Green Sheets” Land Use Principles (Staff: S. Mattas)
City Attorney Mattas provided a staff report on the revised “Green Sheets Initiative” measure.
He explained that, following prior Council direction, the initiative had been narrowed to two main components: allowing certain animals on properties under defined conditions, and amending the land use element to prohibit new large-scale industrial, commercial, or retail uses, while exempting existing businesses and small home-based operations.
He outlined the ballot timeline, noting that if the Council wanted to place the measure on the November ballot, action would need to be taken by August 6, 2026, with practical deadlines requiring a decision in June due to the Council’s July recess schedule. Mr. Mattas added that the Council could refer the initiative to committees, including the Planning Commission due to the land use changes, with feedback due by June 8 to be included in the June meeting materials.
City Council Regular Meeting Minutes Page 14 of 37
May 14, 2026
He clarified that the current action was not for approval or denial, but for the Council to decide whether to send the initiative to committees and the Planning Commission for review before making a final decision on whether to proceed to the ballot.
Councilmember Tankha asked staff about possibly arranging a survey for this item to receive resident input and City Manager Einfalt stated it was possible.
Councilmember Mok expressed concern about the timeline for the Green Sheets Initiative, emphasizing that if the Council intended to move forward with the measure, it needed to ensure the process stayed on schedule to meet the required deadlines.
Councilmember Swan suggested that the City Manager include information about the Green Sheets Initiative in the city newsletter to invite public comments. She supported referring the measure to town committees for review, noting that those groups are actively involved in community issues. However, she stated that she would not support delaying the process for a broader town-wide survey, arguing that the topic had already been discussed extensively and that residents would ultimately have the opportunity to vote on the measure if it proceeded to the ballot.
Vice Mayor Tyson stated he had no questions.
The Council and staff engaged in a discussion about the estimate of cost incurred so far and the projected future cost, which was estimated to be about $20,000.00 or less.
Mayor Bhateja stated that while he supported the concept of limiting new commercial and industrial development without voter approval, he was concerned that requiring a public vote for every change could become cumbersome, particularly if the Council needed to act quickly in response to lawsuits or state law requirements. He asked whether there were alternative approaches, such as requiring a unanimous Council vote to approve such changes, which would create a high threshold for modifications without necessarily requiring the matter to return to voters each time.
City Attorney Mattas explained that the proposed land use element amendments were governed by state law, which required approval by a majority vote of the Council, meaning the Council could not impose a stricter voting threshold such as unanimity for those changes. He added that, for non–general plan policies such as certain animal-related regulations, the Council could adopt a policy encouraging a supermajority vote requirement, but future councils would not be legally bound by it and could choose to override it. Mattas also clarified that any land use element amendment already required at least three affirmative Council votes under state law, and in situations involving recusals or conflicts of interest, the remaining members would effectively have needed to vote unanimously.
Mayor Bhateja expressed concerns about how the proposed animal provisions would apply if multifamily housing developments such as townhouses, condominiums, or apartments were built in town in the future. He questioned how the code would function in those settings, noting that the prospect of residents keeping animals such as piglets in condominium units raised practical concerns for him.
City Council Regular Meeting Minutes Page 15 of 37
May 14, 2026
City Attorney Mattas explained that the proposed animal provisions were part of the land use element policy and that the Council could adopt separate rules for multifamily housing. He noted that the Council could distinguish between single-family and multifamily properties through zoning or future land use amendments, including restricting certain types of animals in multifamily developments due to space limitations or compatibility concerns. While the current initiative did not make that distinction, Mr. Mattas said the Council could add such provisions in the future, particularly for larger or non-traditional animals.
Councilmember Swan noted that the existing code required at least one acre of land to keep horses or other large animals, meaning small townhouse lots would not have qualified. Mayor Bhateja raised additional questions about how the rules would have applied to multifamily developments on larger parcels, including whether animals such as piglets could have been kept there. He also asked whether the town had limited the number of animals allowed on a property, questioning where boundaries would have been set for smaller animals like chickens. Director Bradford responded that staff would need to review the specific municipal code provisions, adding that the town’s multifamily zoning referenced “household pets and domestic animals,” though those terms were not specifically defined in that section and would have required further research.
Mayor Bhateja OPENED PUBLIC COMMENT.
PUBLIC COMMENTS
1. John O’Connell said he still saw unintended consequences in the proposed land use element changes and questioned what the town would gain from them. He noted that the policies could still be changed by a simple Council majority and argued this could reduce flexibility for future decisions. He also disagreed with applying different rules to certain parcels under state law constraints. He concluded that the proposal added cost and uncertainty without clear benefits and said decision-making should remain with the Council.
2. Eric Bredo said he respected John O’Connell’s comments but disagreed with his concerns.
He explained that the proposal was intended to make it more difficult for a small number of Council members, or a “rogue mayor,” to change key town values. While acknowledging that the measure would reduce flexibility, he said that was intentional to protect important policies.
He encouraged the Council to move forward with the proposal as planned.
3. Anand Raganathan said he was unclear about the motivation behind the proposal and emphasized that Council policymaking normally involves balancing competing interests through detailed, case-by-case discussion. He argued that putting policies on the ballot removes that nuance and reduces complex issues to simple yes-or-no decisions, which he said was not an effective way to make policy. He also criticized the idea of “locking in” specific policy preferences to limit future Council flexibility, questioning the legitimacy of doing so and arguing that elected Councils should retain the ability to make and update decisions over time as part of the democratic process.
4. Carol Gottlieb supported codifying the Green Sheets Initiative, citing long efforts to preserve the pathway system and warning it could be weakened without protections. She also opposed allowing commercial uses and emphasized preserving the town’s rural and equestrian
City Council Regular Meeting Minutes Page 16 of 37
May 14, 2026
character. She argued that major policy changes affecting these values should not be left to a small Council majority.
5. Teresa Baker said she supported moving forward with the proposal to make it harder to change the town’s Green Sheets policies, expressing concern that Council decisions can be easily influenced and may not always fully account for long-term implications. She said she wanted to preserve the rural character of the town and its pathway system, which she viewed as central to the community’s identity. Baker emphasized that she did not want those elements to be lost due to future policy changes.
6. Nick Erndt, a longtime resident and head of the Pathways Committee, said that the town’s pathways were an important shared system used by pedestrians, cyclists, horses, and wildlife.
He emphasized their value to the community and argued that decisions allowing a small number of Council members to remove or significantly alter existing pathways should not be permitted. He said major changes to foundational town features should go to a public vote rather than being decided by a small Council majority.
7. Mike Orlando, Vice Chair of the Pathways Committee, supported taking the proposal to the voters and emphasized the importance of the town’s pathway system to its rural character. He said the pathways were a unique regional feature and a key reason he moved to and remains in the town. Orlando referenced the town’s founding vision and expressed concern about preserving that legacy as surrounding communities change. He concluded that any changes to the town’s character should require a very high threshold.
8. Sue Welch supported keeping the initiative open for further review by committees and residents, saying there had not been enough time for full consideration. She expressed concern that future Councils might not share current community values and could make significant changes with only a small number of votes. Welch suggested that codifying principles in the Green Sheets could help protect the town’s existing policies and character, and she supported continued public and committee review of the initiative.
9. A resident (2:09 in video) stated that there appeared to be strong public support for adding pathways to the initiative, noting that they were not currently included in the proposal.
10. Kjell Karlsson stated that the initiative was not about restricting future councils but about allowing residents to help set long-term policy direction. He said he supported giving the community a role in shaping these decisions and did not see the proposal as improperly binding future councils. He also questioned concerns about multifamily housing and animal restrictions, suggesting that such issues would likely be handled by homeowners’ associations and arguing that the initiative was meant to prevent a small number of Council members from banning animals or major town features like horses or chickens without broader input.
Mayor Bhateja CLOSED PUBLIC COMMENT.
Councilmember Mok said the town lacked a formal mission statement and described the Green Sheets as the closest equivalent, reflecting long-standing community values. He emphasized principles such as large lot sizes, privacy, fiscal restraint, and reliance on contracted services. Mok expressed concern that a small number of future Council members could significantly alter those
City Council Regular Meeting Minutes Page 17 of 37
May 14, 2026
values and said he supported making it more difficult to change them going forward to better protect the town’s current direction.
Councilmember Tankha said she had shifted her position and now supported the two key elements of the initiative. While she had previously opposed expanding the ballot measure, she said allowing livestock and restricting commercial real estate aligned with the town’s identity and values, and she was now comfortable supporting those provisions.
Vice Mayor Tyson reiterated his earlier position, describing the proposal as aspirational but overly simplistic in trying to preserve the town’s current character. He argued that concerns about “rogue” Council members making drastic changes were mitigated by existing democratic safeguards and election mechanisms. Tyson emphasized a cost-benefit perspective, noting that the initiative would divert staff time and resources, including from projects like the Summerhill Pathway, while offering limited benefit. He concluded that pursuing the measure for the next election cycle would be a mistake and said he would not support further work on it.
Councilmember Swan said she had been advocating for the initiative since 2021 and asked how long it would take to recall a Council member. The City Attorney responded that a recall would likely take at least six months, including signature gathering, qualification, and an election process, which could be a special or general election. Ms. Swan noted that this timeframe would allow significant policy changes to occur in the interim without control, and she warned that once permits were issued and projects approved, they could not easily be reversed without legal and financial consequences, citing a case in Los Gatos where an attempted reversal led to significant costs after approvals had already been granted.
Councilmember Tankha noted that permitting timelines had already extended well beyond six months, citing her own two-year ADU permitting experience. Councilmember Swan responded that while permits could take time, zoning and policy decisions could have long-term consequences once approved and clarified that the proposal was about placing the issue before voters rather than the Council directly setting policy. Ms. Tankha raised concerns that additional costs beyond the estimated ~$20,000 would likely have been required and questioned how any campaign-related efforts would have been funded.
Councilmember Swan and City Attorney Mattas clarified that the City could not use public funds for campaigning, and that any support would have had to come from residents, though the Council could take a position on the measure.
Councilmember Tankha suggested a quick public poll to gauge community opinion, which Councilmember Swan said she could support if it did not delay the process. Staff noted that committee review would have been low-cost, though legal or additional staff analysis would have increased expenses, and that the measure had already been largely drafted.
Mayor Bhateja noted staff had identified relevant municipal code provisions on animals.
City Manager Einfalt explained that the code explicitly limited cats to three per household and set horse limits of two per acre for private stables, with additional allowances for partial acreage and discretionary permitting for commercial stables. He added that other general requirements related to animal enclosures and sanitation could also impose practical limits.
City Council Regular Meeting Minutes Page 18 of 37
May 14, 2026
Councilmember Swan clarified the horse rule, noting that properties slightly over an acre could allow additional horses based on acreage calculations.
Mayor Bhateja asked whether a privately run solar farm selling electricity would be allowed under the initiative. The City Attorney said it would likely be treated as a prohibited commercial use, while noting legal and definitional uncertainties.
Mr. Mattas clarified that a town-owned utility would be different, but private solar generation for sale would likely be prohibited. They also confirmed that, as written, even small retail uses in multifamily housing could be prohibited unless “large-scale” is more clearly defined.
Mayor Bhateja said residents generally wanted to preserve the rural character of Los Altos Hills and avoid commercial, industrial, and large-scale retail development. He supported the intent of the initiative but questioned how critical a ballot measure was compared to relying on the Council, noting concerns about delays and flexibility if urgent action was needed in the future. He acknowledged concerns about “rogue” Council actions but also warned that requiring voter approval could slow responses to legal or policy needs. He said he supported the general goals but remained concerned about situations where the town might need to act quickly, such as energy projects or other unforeseen requirements, without lengthy public processes.
MOTION MADE AND SECONDED: Mayor Bhateja motioned to…
• promptly conduct a public survey to gather resident input on this matter, noting he (Mayor Bhateja) was willing to assist with that process, including use of the email list that has been referenced.
• that this item that this item be referred to the appropriate committees, including the land use committees, for their review and feedback, as well as the Planning Commission, with all committee and commission responses to be completed and submitted by June 8th. • that staff return to the City Council at the June meeting with the results of the survey and the feedback from the committees and Planning Commission, so that the Council may then consider all input and decide how to proceed at that time.
The motion was seconded by Councilmember Tankha.

Councilmember Tankha directed staff not to spend additional time or money on the initiative before June 8th, including avoiding further town attorney or committee-related expenses. She instead supported conducting a public poll to gather resident input before moving forward. City Manager Einfalt responded that staff intended to minimize costs by reusing the existing staff report for Planning Commission review rather than preparing new materials.

8. NEW BUSINESS
A. Receive the Cost Allocation Plan and Development Services Fee Study and Approve a Resolution Adopting the Town of Los Altos Hills Master Fee Schedule and Local Building Valuation Multiplier (Staff: J. Bradford and T. Leung)
City Manager Einfalt explained that although the agenda item was written to allow the Council to adopt the proposed resolution that evening, staff did not expect final approval to occur yet because several questions remained unresolved following a recent FIC meeting. He said staff anticipated bringing the matter back for further discussion at the June meeting.
He noted that if the Council adopted the fees in June, a required 30-day implementation period would push the effective date to around July 18 rather than the originally planned July 1 timeline.
Mr. Einfalt stated that staff was not concerned about the delay and that the budget could absorb the later implementation date. He also explained that the proposed fees had already been incorporated into assumptions used for the upcoming budget discussion, but that Council feedback from both meetings could still be integrated moving forward.
Director Bradford introduced Nicole Kissam of NBS to present a high-level overview of the town’s cost allocation and fee study, after which staff would discuss the policy implications and proposed fee structure.
Nicole Kissam explained that NBS completed two analyses for the town: a cost allocation plan to determine administrative overhead costs, and a fee study focused on achieving full cost recovery for planning, building, and engineering services. She said the study followed standard governmental cost-allocation practices and legal requirements that fees not exceed the reasonable cost of providing services.
Ms. Kissam described how the study analyzed annual costs, hourly staff rates, and per-service fees using budget data, workload estimates, and staff time assumptions. She emphasized that the current phase involved Council policy decisions about how much of the full cost should actually be recovered through fees.
She concluded that the town currently recovers about 43% of the total cost of providing development-related services, and that adopting fees at full cost recovery levels could generate roughly $2 million in additional annual revenue.
Vice Mayor Tyson asked whether cost recovery limits applied by department or across the entire fee program. City Attorney Morrison responded that departments could not subsidize one another, and that exceeding 100% recovery within a department would have been unlawful and subject to challenge. Mr. Tyson also asked how recovery would be evaluated over time, and Ms.
Morrison explained that ongoing overcollection could have created legal risk if applicants or taxpayers believed fees were inequitable.
Councilmember Mok noted that the study showed the town recovered only 43% of developmentservice costs and questioned whether fees might need to more than double. City Manager Einfalt said periodic fee studies were standard practice and acknowledged the town was overdue for one.
City Council Regular Meeting Minutes Page 20 of 37
May 14, 2026
Director Bradford explained that the new figures reflected both rising costs and changes in how staff time was tracked, including separating engineering and planning work that had previously been bundled into building permit revenues.
Councilmember Tankha questioned the reported 43% cost recovery rate, saying she remembered the previous fee study showing significantly higher recovery levels and doubted rising costs alone explained the difference. She suggested Finance Committee Chair Allan Epstein could provide additional context. Mayor Bhateja responded that increasing costs were likely a major factor and said the issue could be discussed further during public comment.
Director Bradford explained that the new fee model used a blended hourly rate based on the town’s cost allocation plan to simplify implementation and improve transparency. Staff also cleaned up the fee schedule by removing unused fees and better aligning categories with departments. He said the updated system, including pass-through consultant costs, was expected to generate about $4 million annually and approach roughly 99% cost recovery, though actual recovery would likely be lower due to rising costs and ongoing general fund subsidies such as long-range planning. He also noted adjustments to how overhead was applied to capital projects so they would only be charged when work was actively occurring.
Mayor Bhateja paused the presentation to ask about the $1.1 million “City Manager” cost allocation line item. Staff explained it was not just the City Manager’s salary, but the full City Manager’s office, including administrative staff, contract costs, and overhead supporting all departments and Council functions. Finance Director Leung added that this figure was consistent with recent budgets for the entire office, and Director Bradford clarified it represented overhead costs without a direct revenue source, not a single position.
Director Bradford summarized that staff updated planning, building, and engineering fees to better align charges with actual service costs. Changes included adding new fee categories for state-mandated processes, restructuring building fees from a flat model to a tiered system, and separating administrative and technical review costs. He also noted adjustments to deposits based on community feedback and revised valuation methods to better distribute costs between small and large projects. Overall, he said the new structure ties fees more directly to staff time and workload to improve cost recovery and transparency.
Mayor Bhateja asked for clarification on the fee table, noting confusion between dollar figures and volume data. Director Bradford and NBS explained that the table shows project counts within valuation tiers and incremental $1,000 segments above thresholds, not direct dollar amounts. NBS gave a $70,000 example to show how a project is split across tiers for fee calculation, and the Mayor confirmed his understanding.
Continuing with his presentation, Director Bradford compared proposed permit fees to current fees and neighboring cities, noting the analysis was normalized by property valuation for consistency. He said smaller projects, including many under ~$1.5M valuation, would generally see higher costs, while some larger projects could see lower costs. He explained that total costs include both base fees and impact fees, though a full cross-city total comparison was not shown.
Staff also noted ADUs may increase in cost under full cost recovery, and suggested possibly subsidizing them at around 80% recovery, shifting roughly $100K–$200K to the general fund.
City Council Regular Meeting Minutes Page 21 of 37
May 14, 2026
Director Bradford explained that the town uses ICC-based valuation tables with regional multipliers and has refined its method to better align project valuations with local conditions. He reiterated that fees must be recovered at the individual service level and cannot be crosssubsidized between programs, and that the tiered structure better matches costs to project size.
He said Council could choose to subsidize certain permits—such as ADUs or electrificationrelated upgrades—at roughly 70–80% cost recovery, which the budget could absorb, and asked whether Council wished to apply such subsidies.
The Mayor questioned a major reduction in plan check consultant costs under the new fee model, noting that a ~$13,000 cost would drop to about $5,500 for a $2.25M project and asking what data supported that assumption. Mr. Bradford responded that consultant plan check costs are tied to the overall cost-of-service model and are expected to balance out across the full fee program, with higher recovery on smaller projects offsetting changes in larger ones, resulting in an overall more stable cost recovery across the system.
The Mayor noted that in the $2.25M home example, the cost-recovery fee appeared to decrease from about $40,000 to $30,000 (excluding impact and outside fees). He questioned how that could be consistent with rising costs over time and whether prior or current fees were misaligned. Mr.
Bradford responded that he would reference a different illustration from the packet to further explain how the cost changes and fee calculations were derived.
The Mayor questioned the proposed reduction in plan check costs from about $13,000 to roughly $5,500 for the same type of project, noting that the City Attorney had emphasized fairness in charging across projects. He said he had difficulty understanding how both figures could be considered fair for equivalent work.
NBS explained that the current system uses a flat percentage of construction value, which scales fees linearly with project cost. Under that model, larger projects often pay disproportionately more even though regulatory effort does not increase at the same rate. She said the new approach replaces this with a tiered structure tied more closely to actual regulatory effort, which is not linear. As a result, fees at the high end may decrease while lower-end projects may increase, reflecting a recalibration toward workload rather than project value.
Vice Mayor Tyson asked whether the previous system relied on applicant-reported construction values multiplied by a flat 0.9% fee, noting that such a method could be manipulated, and contrasted it with the proposed approach using standardized square-foot valuation tables, which he suggested would be more consistent and defensible for auditing purposes.
The Mayor asked how the new valuation method would handle applicant-submitted project values and whether those figures would simply be accepted. Director Bradford responded that higher-than-average declared values would be accepted, but lower-than-average values would be adjusted upward to the standardized valuation baseline.
Mayor Bhateja OPENED PUBLIC COMMENT.
PUBLIC COMMENT
1. John O’Connell said the presentation did not clearly distinguish between costs already covered by property taxes and incremental permit-related costs that should be recovered
City Council Regular Meeting Minutes Page 22 of 37
May 14, 2026
through fees. He also questioned whether residents and contractors were being treated too similarly under the fee structure and said the proposal needed further review before adoption.
2. Allan Epstein, a member of the Finance and Investment Committee, stated that he was available to answer questions from the Council regarding the committee’s review and discussions of the fee study.
Councilmember Tankha said she recalled the prior fee study targeting roughly 90% cost recovery, not 43%. Mr. Epstein confirmed that was correct, explaining that the current 43% figure reflected today’s costs compared against fee levels that had remained largely unchanged for six years. He said several factors drove the increase: overhead allocations rose from about $2 million to $3.7 million, hourly staff rates increased significantly, engineering costs rose faster than inflation, and estimated hours required for tasks also increased. He added that the new tiered fee structure shifted more cost burden onto smaller projects because the analysis showed those projects required proportionally more staff effort.
Mayor Bhateja questioned why fees for larger projects had decreased under the new model, despite rising costs over the past six years. Mr. Epstein explained that the revised fee structure assumed regulatory effort for larger projects did not increase linearly with project value, resulting in lower relative fees for high-value projects and higher fees for smaller projects. He noted that permit fees were now based on estimated staff hours multiplied by fully burdened hourly rates within a tiered structure, rather than a flat percentage of project value. Mayor Bhateja remained concerned that the relative costs still appeared disproportionately low for large homes compared to smaller projects, while Mr. Epstein acknowledged surprise at the outcome but said the consultant’s analysis concluded the fee structure reflected actual staff time and regulatory effort.
Councilmember Tankha questioned whether the estimated staff hours underlying the fee model were accurate or potentially double-counted. Nicole Kissam of NBS explained that the estimates were based on typical workflows provided by Town staff, including inspections, drive time, paperwork, and administrative processing. Ms. Tankha argued that smaller projects, such as bathroom remodels, appeared to receive disproportionately high charges relative to the actual inspection time involved. Director Bradford responded that even short inspections required additional administrative and processing work, and noted that multiple inspections for plumbing, electrical, drywall, and final approval could easily exceed the onehour estimate assigned to a small project.
Mayor Bhateja said the Council understood that project costs were not linear but remained concerned about the extent of the disparity between small and large projects. He requested that staff return the analysis to the Finance and Investment Committee for a closer review of the methodology and assumptions behind the estimated hours and tiered fee structure before bringing the proposal back to Council.
Vice Mayor Tyson said he was not surprised that project costs were not linear and agreed that larger projects would not necessarily require proportionally more staff time. He expressed concern about the Council getting too deep into questioning individual inspection durations and repeatedly revisiting the analysis after significant work had already been completed by staff, consultants, and the Finance and Investment Committee. Mr. Tyson noted that Mr.
City Council Regular Meeting Minutes Page 23 of 37
May 14, 2026
Epstein had defended the methodology and questioned whether the Council was struggling to make a decision despite the extensive review already conducted.
Allan Epstein said he was comfortable with the work that had been done and was not suggesting anything was incorrect. He said the Finance and Investment Committee simply wanted to review the arithmetic and methodology behind a few sample projects, such as a bathroom remodel, ADU, and $2.5 million home, to better understand how the calculations fit within the tiered fee structure. Mr. Epstein emphasized that he was not requesting additional analysis, only a closer review of the existing work, so the committee could explain it clearly to the Council and determine whether they were comfortable with the results.
Councilmember Swan said she agreed that staff and the consultant had already done significant work and that no additional study was needed. She supported only requesting clarification to better understand the methodology, rather than reopening the analysis, and favored moving the process forward.
Mr. Epstein said he believed staff and the consultant had done solid work collecting and structuring the data, but he could not confirm whether the resulting fees were fair or equitable without reviewing the underlying calculations in more detail. He noted that the Council had only seen part of the full picture so far, primarily building fees, and that planning and engineering fees also changed significantly due to updated hourly assumptions. As an example, he cited a site development planning fee increasing from $1,560 to $9,342, attributing the change to revised assumptions about staff hours. He emphasized that he was prepared to provide an opinion once he had reviewed the detailed work product.
3. John O’Connell said the plan check fee structure had raised concerns because it was still calculated as a percentage of permit fees, creating large disparities between large projects and small remodels. He argued that, if fees were intended to reflect actual costs, the methodology should have been reviewed more carefully rather than being tied to permit values. He also noted that despite prior efforts to reduce fees for smaller projects, the new structure appeared to have shifted costs onto them in a different way. He supported additional Finance and Investment Committee review to better understand the changes.
Mayor Bhateja CLOSED PUBLIC COMMENT.
Mayor Bhateja said he appreciated the work that had been done and was not questioning its integrity, but said the Council needed a clearer understanding of the methodology and results. He stated that the Finance and Investment Committee was the appropriate venue to review and clarify the details before final Council action.
Mayor Bhateja said he would send the item back to the Finance and Investment Committee for review at its June 1st meeting, with a follow-up report back to Council in June to help move the process forward. He also asked for Council direction on subsidies for ADU, heat pump HVAC, and heat pump water heater fees. Councilmembers generally supported a 20% subsidy for those categories, and staff confirmed that no formal motion was required at that stage.
No motion.

The meeting recessed at 9:51PM and reconvened at 10:04PM B. Emergency Preparedness & Response Committee (EPRC) Request for Reconsideration of Support for AB2517 (Staff: J. Bradford)
City Manager Einfalt said the item returned to the agenda for two reasons: a request from the EPRC and the fact that the prior Council vote had been a 2–2 split due to one member’s absence, supporting reconsideration. He explained that the proposed legislation was viewed by the committee as beneficial because it would require CAL FIRE to conduct a public input process before releasing wildfire hazard maps. This would allow the community to provide feedback on potential inaccuracies or local topographic conditions that may not be fully reflected in the maps, creating a more participatory process before adoption.
Mayor Bhateja OPENED PUBLIC COMMENT.
PUBLIC COMMENT
1. Elizabeth Wilson said she believed the item raised concerns about transparency and local control. She argued that residents with knowledge of local terrain should have meaningful input, and expressed concern that the proposed process would shift decision-making to the state level in a way that was less visible and less accountable. She stated that once decisions were made by CAL FIRE, they would be difficult for local agencies to challenge and urged the Council not to support sending a letter in favor of the proposal.
Director Bradford clarified that the bill does not remove local authority to assign higher hazard classifications to properties under existing state law. He said it also supports local control in cases of mixed-use parcel designations, aligning with concerns previously raised by residents. He concluded that the bill generally reflects the points raised, including those mentioned by Elizabeth Wilson.
2. John O’Connell opposed the bill, stating he believed the existing CAL FIRE methodology for determining fire hazard severity zones was reasonable and well thought out. He expressed concern about transparency, questioning staff outreach to committees and the lack of clarity about which bodies were being consulted. He argued that changes under the bill could negatively affect local interests and urged the Council not to send a supporting letter, aligning his comments with prior public opposition.
City Council Regular Meeting Minutes Page 25 of 37
May 14, 2026
City Manager Einfalt clarified that staff did not initiate outreach to committees; instead, the discussion was independently initiated and agendized by the EPRC. Mayor Bhateja confirmed this account, noting the item returned to Council because the EPRC had strong interest in it. John O’Connell acknowledged his earlier interpretation was incorrect and thanked them for the clarification.
Mayor Bhateja CLOSED PUBLIC COMMENT.
City Manager Einfalt explained that the EPRC supported the bill because it would introduce a public input process before CAL FIRE releases fire hazard maps, allowing residents to comment on map accuracy and local topographic conditions. He noted that the bill does not remove local authority to adjust hazard designations after release, but adds an earlier stage of public participation in shaping the maps.
Councilmember Kavita Tankha stated that she believed the town’s existing process and the baseline CAL FIRE maps were already adequate and, in some respects, more restrictive than the proposal.
City Manager Einfalt responded that the concern raised by the EPRC was that CAL FIRE maps did not fully account for local topography and that the bill would allow broader public input on map formation before release. He emphasized that the proposal would not force state determinations on the town and would still allow local jurisdictions to adjust classifications afterward.
Councilmember Tankha questioned whether the discussion implied that the public had superior fire expertise, which Einfalt rejected, clarifying that the intent was to broaden input rather than replace technical judgment.
City Manager Einfalt clarified that the bill’s intent extended beyond a single jurisdiction and that similar support had been seen across multiple California cities, including backing from the League of California Cities. He noted that the proposal had received broad support from local governments who viewed it as improving transparency and public participation in the fire hazard mapping process.
Mayor Bhateja explained that the purpose of the bill was to allow additional public comment on CAL FIRE maps before finalization, while still leaving final authority with the state agency.
Councilmember Tankha raised concerns about how the public hearing process would function, asking whether it could allow concentrated neighborhood influence over individual properties.
City Manager Einfalt responded that the bill provides for a public input process, including hearings, rather than limiting participation to informal comments.
City Attorney Morrison explained that the bill would require a 30-day public comment period for draft fire severity maps, during which stakeholders could submit written feedback. She added that CAL FIRE would then be required to respond within 30 days to comments from local agencies regarding land use and zoning issues. She concluded that the bill would increase transparency in the state’s fire severity mapping process.

Councilmember Swan stated that the bill would increase transparency and local control, noting that Cal Cities had reviewed and supported it. She expressed support for the proposal, describing it as a positive step.
Vice Mayor Tyson said he had missed the prior discussion but reviewed the report and was supportive of the proposal. He noted he appreciated the increased transparency and the unanimous support referenced in the report and indicated he was inclined to vote in favor of the item.

C. Consideration of a Resolution of the City Council of the Town of Los Altos Hills Calling a Municipal Election to be held on Tuesday, November 3, 2026, and Requesting Consolidation and Performance of Services from the County of Santa Clara Registrar of Voters (Staff: A. Miller) City Clerk Birdsong-Miller provided a quick overview of her staff report. She explained the proposal to consolidate the upcoming election with Santa Clara County to fill two vacant 4-year City Council seats. Because there were no incumbents, the nomination period would close on August 7 at 5 p.m., and if the number of candidates did not exceed the number of seats, the Council could appoint candidates instead of holding a contested election. She noted the required deadline to submit the consolidation to the County was August 19.
Mayor Bhateja confirmed with staff that the nomination deadline was August 7, and that the County would need to be informed by August 19 if the election were to be canceled.
City Clerk Birdsong-Miller clarified that coordination with the County would continue after the deadline if only two candidates qualified, allowing time for Council action to formally approve cancellation of the election if appropriate.
MOTION MADE AND SECONDED: Councilmember Swan motioned to pass a resolution for the City Council to call a municipal election to be held on Tuesday, November 3rd, and request consolidation and performance services from the County of Santa Clara Registrar of Voters.

D. Resolution Approving a Three-Year Concessionaire Agreement with Victoria Dye Equestrian, LLC, for the Operation of Westwind Community Barn (Staff: J. Parcutilo) Management Analyst Parcutilo presented a 3-year concession agreement for Westwind Community Barn, operated by Victoria Day Equestrian. Key points included:
• Clarified maintenance responsibilities between the Town and operator • Established a formal maintenance and capital improvement plan for facilities • Updated safety, insurance, and operational requirements (including vaccination and reporting updates)
• Increased monthly management payment from $3,300 to $4,000 to reflect cost-of-living changes
• Maintained revenue split at 85% operator / 15% Town for services revenue • Noted collaboration with staff, FIC, and Council members during negotiation • Emphasized improved accountability, fiscal structure, and long-term stewardship of the barn Council was asked to approve the new agreement.
Mayor Bhateja OPENED PUBLIC COMMENT.
PUBLIC COMMENT
1. Ella Sakamoto expressed strong support for renewing the Westwind Community Barn agreement with Victoria Day Equestrian, describing the operator as integral to the barn community and its programs. She highlighted a positive culture among riders, boarders, and visitors, and praised staff for being proactive and community-minded, including examples of employees independently maintaining equipment and supporting barn operations.
2. Allan Epstein clarified that the Finance and Investment Committee did not formally review the contract, but instead provided ad hoc members to support the process. He stated his strong support for renewing the agreement with Victoria Day Equestrian, noting his long-standing familiarity with the operator and praising improved coordination between the Town and operator on capital improvement planning and facility condition assessments. He added that while the operator is experienced in equestrian operations, the Town must remain proactive in managing the aging infrastructure of the barn.
3. Jitze Couperus stated that he had initially intended to strongly support the item if there had been opposition, given his 50-year history with Westwind Barn. He contrasted earlier decades of operational difficulties with the improvements made since Victoria Day Equestrian began managing the facility about a decade ago. He praised the operator for significantly improving the barn and described it as one of the Town’s finest assets, urging approval of the renewal agreement.
