AGENDA REPORT
(AR)
Item Title: Adopt a Resolution to Approve Project Plans and Specifications, Award Construction Contract to McKim Corporation for Street Resurfacing 2024 Project No. 4283, 4304, 4305; and Approve Budget Change Form (Staff Contact: Matt Cano, Assistant City Manager 408-586-3012, Roberto Alonzo, PW Division Manager - Engineering, 408-586-3316)
Category: Consent Calendar-Community Services and Sustainable Infrastructure Meeting Date: 4/2/2024
Recommendation: Adopt a resolution to approve project plans & specifications; Award the construction contract to the lowest responsible, and responsive bidder, McKim Corporation, in the amount of $3,328,125.94 for the Street Resurfacing 2024 Project No. 4283, 4304, 4305; Authorize the City Manager to execute the construction contract with McKim Corporation; Authorize the City Engineer to negotiate and execute Contract Change Order(s) in an aggregate amount not to exceed $499,218.90 for the project; and Approve the Budget Change Form to appropriate funding for CIP 4304 and CP 4305.
BACKGROUND:
Project No. 4283, 4304, 4305, Street Resurfacing Project 2024 is in the City Council approved 2024-2028 Capital Improvement Program. The Project provides for the design and construction of localized repair of asphalt concrete pavement, resurface asphalt concrete pavement, install Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) compliant curb ramps, repair damaged concrete sidewalk, curb & gutter, minor improvements at signalized intersections, install class II bike lanes, and reinstall pavement delineation.
Project No’s. 4283, 4304, 4305 provide funding for the design of the 2024 Street Resurfacing Project, and the Plans and Specifications for construction are complete and now ready for City Council approval. The following streets were approved by the City Council for the Street Resurfacing Project 2024 as part of the June 2023 adoption of the 2024-2028 Capital Improvement Program budget and will receive pavement and concrete repairs during the Spring/Summer 2024 construction season:
▪Great Mall Parkway from I880 to McCandless Drive; and
▪Entire lengths of Thompson Street and Thompson Court
The Engineer’s Construction Estimate for the project was approximately $4,322,948.00, and the Project Plan title sheet (Attachment 1) is included in the Council’s agenda packet. The complete full-size set of plans and specifications are available for review in the office of the Acting City Engineer.
ANALYSIS:
The City has a Pavement Condition Index (PCI) rating of 71, “Good Condition”. The project streets are selected based on the recommendations from the Metropolitan Transportation Commission (MTC) Pavement Management Program to maintain and improve the overall city pavement condition. The resurfacing will address failed roadways with PCI’s ranging as low as 32 and 33 from I880 to South Abel and South Main Street to McCandless Drive respectively, up to 45 and 46 in Thompson Court and Thompson Street, respectively.
The project was advertised on February 9, 2024, and February 16, 2024, in the Milpitas Post and on digital construction trade publications. Bid opening was on March 6, 2024, and 7 sealed bid proposals were received.
The basis for awarding a contract is on the Total Base Bid.
The lowest responsible and responsive bidder based on Total Base Bid is MCKIM CORPORATION, in the amount of $3,328,125.94. No bid protests were filed with the City regarding this project.
The Engineer’s Estimate for the Project was approximately $4,322,948.00 and the following is a tabulation of bidders and bids received. The bid result tabulation is included as (Attachment 3).
Bidder Base Bid
MCKIM CORPORATION $3,328,125.94
RADIUS EARTHWORK, INC. $3,379,063.60
DESILVA GATES CONSTRUCTION LLC $3,532,532.00
TIECHERT CONSTRUCTION $3,708,698.85
JOSEPH J. ALBANESE, INC. $3,878,163.00
BAY CITIES PAVING & GRADING, INC. $4,233,575.00
O’GRADY PAVING, INC. $4,607,368.90
The total bid pricing received varied considerably when compared to the Engineer’s Estimate. The range of variation in bid pricing from the Engineer’s Estimate is likely due to the current construction market where contractors are hungry for work due to recovery from the pandemic.
The MCKIM CORPORATION, is deemed the lowest responsible and responsive bidder. Staff recommends City Council adopt a Resolution (Attachment 2) to award a construction contract for a total contract amount of $3,328,125.94. Staff recommends a construction contingency amount of $499,218.90 (15%) of the awarded amount. The construction contingency will allow for a timely completion of the Project, while addressing the need to respond swiftly to construction conditions and approve necessary change orders in order to limit potential claims or risks to the City. Staff also recommends authorizing the Acting City Engineer to negotiate and execute any contract change orders in an aggregate amount not to exceed $499,218.90. The change order authority will not exceed this amount, and the Project would not require additional appropriation.
Budget Change
California State Bill 1 Road Maintenance and Rehabilitation Account (SB1 RMRA) Funding SB1 RMRA was signed into law in April 2017 to address statewide transportation infrastructure maintenance funding shortfalls. The distribution of SB1 RMRA funds to local jurisdictions for road maintenance is based on a population formula. The City received an increase in the allocated amount for California State Bill 1 Road Maintenance and Rehabilitation Account (SB1 RMRA) funds, and staff requests budget appropriation of these funds for projects.
The currently adopted fiscal year 2022-2023 SB1 funding for CIP 4304 is $1,778,739.00. The actual SB1 funding received for fiscal year 2022-2023 was $1,855,314.29 with interest accrued of $24,965.98. Staff is requesting a budget appropriation of $76,575.29 in SB1 funding of CIP 4304 to account for the $51,609.31 difference in projected allocation compared to the actual allocation received, and the $24,965.98 interest accrued to CIP 4304 to capture all available funding for project expenditures. The current SB1 funding estimate for fiscal year 2023-2024 is $1,963,551.00 while the adopted budget is $1,500,000. Staff is requesting a budget appropriation of $463,551.00 to CIP 4305 to capture all eligible expenditures that may be used towards these funds.
The current VRF funding estimate for fiscal year 2023-2024 is $2,017,862.27 while the adopted budget is $1,700,000.00. Staff is requesting a budget appropriation of $317,862.27 to CIP 4305 to capture all eligible expenditures that may be used towards these funds.
The current adopted fiscal year 2022-2023 Vehicle Registration Fee (VRF) funding for CIP 4304 is $500,000.00. The actual VRF funding received for fiscal year 2022-2023 was $466,150.00 with a decreased of ($33,850.00). Staff is requesting a budget amendment of ($33,850.00) in VRF funding of CIP 4304 to account
for the (33,850.00) difference in projected allocation compared to the actual allocation received. The current VRF funding estimate for fiscal year 2023-2024 is $600,705.00 while the adopted budget is $500,000.00. Staff is requesting a budget appropriation of $100,705.00 to CIP 4305 to capture all eligible expenditures that may be used towards these funds.
The approval of a Budget Change (Attachment 4) amending the budgets for Project No.’s 4304 and 4305 to match the SB1 allocations received is recommended. The alignment of Project budgets showing the actual grant funding received is required for use of the funding and in order to qualify all Project expenditures for reimbursement.
The following is a summary of the requested Budget Appropriations for the Project:

POLICY ALTERNATIVE(S):
Alternative 1:
Deny approval of project plans and specifications, award of the construction contract, of the requested budget change
Pros: None.
Cons: A denial would cause delay in awarding this Project and in completing the needed annual repairs and rehabilitation of the City’s roadways.
Reason for Not Recommending: A delay in the award this construction contract will delay project completion, prolong construction activities into rainy season and may potentially results in higher total construction cost, and loss of grant funding.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Adequate funds are available in each funding source (listed on the summary table above) to construct Project No.’s 4283, 4304, and 4305. The approval of a Budget Change (Attachment 4) amending the budgets for Project No.’s 4304 and 4305 to match the SB1 allocations received is recommended. The alignment of Project budgets showing the actual grant funding received is required for use of the funding and in order to qualify all Project expenditures for reimbursement.
As of 03/20/24, the available funding balance for the Project upon approval of attached budget change and resolution:
Project No. 4283 $400,375.74
Project No. 4304 $2,328,721.78
Project No. 4305 $3,995,188.04
Total Balance Available $6,724,285.56
Summary of Estimated Construction Cost:
Total Base Bid Amount $3,328,125.94
15% Contingency $499,218.90
City Administration and Inspection $200,000.00
Total $4,027,344.84
With the street resurfacing remaining balance, the City’s plan is to set it aside to fund the Dempsey Road resurfacing project scheduled for the summer of 2025 as part of the construction of the new Dempsey Road 12-inch Water Main replacement project.
We are also exploring the possibility of using funds for resurfacing work along two locations on East Calaveras Blvd. One between I680 and North Park Victoria and the other between Gadsden Drive and Evans Road, following the completion of the roadway improvement work by the MUSD Innovation Campus Project next summer.
California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA):
The project is exempt under Section 15301 (Existing Facilities) of the CEQA guidelines. A Notice of Exemption (NOE) was filed with the County of Santa Clara on January 09, 2024.

Recommendation: Adopt a resolution to approve project plans & specifications; Award the construction contract to the lowest responsible, and responsive bidder, McKim Corporation, in the amount of $3,328,125.94 for the Street Resurfacing 2024 Project No. 4283, 4304, 4305; Authorize the City Manager to execute the construction contract with McKim Corporation; Authorize the City Engineer to negotiate and execute Contract Change Order(s) in an aggregate amount not to exceed $499,218.90 for the project; and Approve the Budget Change Form to appropriate funding for CIP 4304 and CP 4305.
BACKGROUND:
Project No. 4283, 4304, 4305, Street Resurfacing Project 2024 is in the City Council approved 2024-2028 Capital Improvement Program. The Project provides for the design and construction of localized repair of asphalt concrete pavement, resurface asphalt concrete pavement, install Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) compliant curb ramps, repair damaged concrete sidewalk, curb & gutter, minor improvements at signalized intersections, install class II bike lanes, and reinstall pavement delineation.
Project No’s. 4283, 4304, 4305 provide funding for the design of the 2024 Street Resurfacing Project, and the Plans and Specifications for construction are complete and now ready for City Council approval. The following streets were approved by the City Council for the Street Resurfacing Project 2024 as part of the June 2023 adoption of the 2024- 2028 Capital Improvement Program budget and will receive pavement and concrete repairs during the Spring/Summer 2024 construction season:
▪Great Mall Parkway from I880 to McCandless Drive; and
▪Entire lengths of Thompson Street and Thompson Court
The Engineer’s Construction Estimate for the project was approximately $4,322,948.00, and the Project Plan title sheet (Attachment 1) is included in the Council’s agenda packet. The complete full-size set of plans and specifications are available for review in the office of the Acting City Engineer.
ANALYSIS:
The City has a Pavement Condition Index (PCI) rating of 71, “Good Condition”. The project streets are selected based on the recommendations from the Metropolitan Transportation Commission (MTC) Pavement Management Program to maintain and improve the overall city pavement condition. The resurfacing will address failed roadways with PCI’s ranging as low as 32 and 33 from I880 to South Abel and South Main Street to McCandless Drive respectively, up to 45 and 46 in Thompson Court and Thompson Street, respectively.
The project was advertised on February 9, 2024, and February 16, 2024, in the Milpitas Post and on digital construction trade publications. Bid opening was on March 6, 2024, and 7 sealed bid proposals were received. The basis for awarding a contract is on the Total Base Bid.
The lowest responsible and responsive bidder based on Total Base Bid is MCKIM CORPORATION, in the amount of $3,328,125.94. No bid protests were filed with the City regarding this project.
The Engineer’s Estimate for the Project was approximately $4,322,948.00 and the following is a tabulation of bidders and bids received. The bid result tabulation is included as (Attachment 3).
Bidder Base Bid
MCKIM CORPORATION $3,328,125.94
RADIUS EARTHWORK, INC. $3,379,063.60
DESILVA GATES CONSTRUCTION LLC $3,532,532.00
TIECHERT CONSTRUCTION $3,708,698.85
JOSEPH J. ALBANESE, INC. $3,878,163.00
BAY CITIES PAVING & GRADING, INC. $4,233,575.00
O’GRADY PAVING, INC. $4,607,368.90
The total bid pricing received varied considerably when compared to the Engineer’s Estimate. The range of variation in bid pricing from the Engineer’s Estimate is likely due to the current construction market where contractors are hungry for work due to recovery from the pandemic.
The MCKIM CORPORATION, is deemed the lowest responsible and responsive bidder. Staff recommends City Council adopt a Resolution (Attachment 2) to award a construction contract for a total contract amount of $3,328,125.94. Staff recommends a construction contingency amount of $499,218.90 (15%) of the awarded amount. The construction contingency will allow for a timely completion of the Project, while addressing the need to respond swiftly to construction conditions and approve necessary change orders in order to limit potential claims or risks to the City. Staff also recommends authorizing the Acting City Engineer to negotiate and execute any contract change orders in an aggregate amount not to exceed $499,218.90. The change order authority will not exceed this amount, and the Project would not require additional appropriation.
Budget Change
California State Bill 1 Road Maintenance and Rehabilitation Account (SB1 RMRA) Funding SB1 RMRA was signed into law in April 2017 to address statewide transportation infrastructure maintenance funding shortfalls. The distribution of SB1 RMRA funds to local jurisdictions for road maintenance is based on a population formula. The City received an increase in the allocated amount for California State Bill 1 Road Maintenance and Rehabilitation Account (SB1 RMRA) funds, and staff requests budget appropriation of these funds for projects.
The currently adopted fiscal year 2022-2023 SB1 funding for CIP 4304 is $1,778,739.00. The actual SB1 funding received for fiscal year 2022-2023 was $1,855,314.29 with interest accrued of $24,965.98. Staff is requesting a budget appropriation of $76,575.29 in SB1 funding of CIP 4304 to account for the $51,609.31 difference in projected allocation compared to the actual allocation received, and the $24,965.98 interest accrued to CIP 4304 to capture all available funding for project expenditures. The current SB1 funding estimate for fiscal year 2023-2024 is $1,963,551.00 while the adopted budget is $1,500,000. Staff is requesting a budget appropriation of $463,551.00 to CIP 4305 to capture all eligible expenditures that may be used towards these funds.
The current VRF funding estimate for fiscal year 2023-2024 is $2,017,862.27 while the adopted budget is $1,700,000.00. Staff is requesting a budget appropriation of $317,862.27 to CIP 4305 to capture all eligible expenditures that may be used towards these funds.
The current adopted fiscal year 2022-2023 Vehicle Registration Fee (VRF) funding for CIP 4304 is $500,000.00. The actual VRF funding received for fiscal year 2022-2023 was $466,150.00 with a decreased of ($33,850.00). Staff is requesting a budget amendment of ($33,850.00) in VRF funding of CIP 4304 to account for the (33,850.00) difference in projected allocation compared to the actual allocation received. The current VRF funding estimate for fiscal year 2023-
2024 is $600,705.00 while the adopted budget is $500,000.00. Staff is requesting a budget appropriation of $100,705.00 to CIP 4305 to capture all eligible expenditures that may be used towards these funds.
The approval of a Budget Change (Attachment 4) amending the budgets for Project No.’s 4304 and 4305 to match the SB1 allocations received is recommended. The alignment of Project budgets showing the actual grant funding received is required for use of the funding and in order to qualify all Project expenditures for reimbursement.
The following is a summary of the requested Budget Appropriations for the Project:

POLICY ALTERNATIVE(S):
Alternative 1:
Deny approval of project plans and specifications, award of the construction contract, of the requested budget change Pros: None.
Cons: A denial would cause delay in awarding this Project and in completing the needed annual repairs and rehabilitation of the City’s roadways.
Reason for Not Recommending: A delay in the award this construction contract will delay project completion, prolong construction activities into rainy season and may potentially results in higher total construction cost, and loss of grant funding.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Adequate funds are available in each funding source (listed on the summary table above) to construct Project No.’s 4283, 4304, and 4305. The approval of a Budget Change (Attachment 4) amending the budgets for Project No.’s 4304 and 4305 to match the SB1 allocations received is recommended. The alignment of Project budgets showing the actual grant funding received is required for use of the funding and in order to qualify all Project expenditures for reimbursement.
As of 03/20/24, the available funding balance for the Project upon approval of attached budget change and resolution:
Project No. 4283 $400,375.74
Project No. 4304 $2,328,721.78
Project No. 4305 $3,995,188.04
Total Balance Available $6,724,285.56
Summary of Estimated Construction Cost:
Total Base Bid Amount $3,328,125.94
15% Contingency $499,218.90
City Administration and Inspection $200,000.00
Total $4,027,344.84
With the street resurfacing remaining balance, the City’s plan is to set it aside to fund the Dempsey Road resurfacing project scheduled for the summer of 2025 as part of the construction of the new Dempsey Road 12-inch Water Main replacement project.
We are also exploring the possibility of using funds for resurfacing work along two locations on East Calaveras Blvd.
One between I680 and North Park Victoria and the other between Gadsden Drive and Evans Road, following the completion of the roadway improvement work by the MUSD Innovation Campus Project next summer.
California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA):

Item Title: Adopt a Resolution Granting Acceptance of the Street Resurfacing 2023 Project, Project No. 4283, 4303, & 4304, Authorizing the City Engineer to file a Notice of Completion and Issue a Notice of Final Acceptance after the One-Year Warranty (Staff Contact: Michael Silveira, Public Works Engineer Division Manager 408- 586-3303; and Matt Cano, Assistant City Manager 408-586-3012) Category: Consent Calendar-Community Services and Sustainable Infrastructure Meeting Date: 4/2/2024
Recommendation: Adopt a resolution granting acceptance of the Street Resurfacing 2023 Project, Project No. 4283, 4303, & 4304, authorizing the City Engineer to file a Notice of Completion and issue a Notice of Final Acceptance after the one-year warranty BACKGROUND:
On June 6, 2023, the City Council awarded a construction contract to Joseph J. Albanese Inc. for the Street Resurfacing 2023 Project, Project No. 4283, 4303, & 4304 (“Project”) in the amount of $2,899,299.75. The Project provided for the construction of localized repair of asphalt concrete pavement, resurfacing asphalt concrete pavement, installation of Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) compliant curb ramps, repair of damaged concrete sidewalk, driveways, or curb & gutter, installation of Class II bike lanes, and reinstallation of pavement delineation. The following street segments were repaired under this Project:
▪North Park Victoria Drive from Bolton Drive to Jacklin Road ▪Kennedy Drive from North Park Victoria Drive to Fanyon Street ▪Mt Shasta Avenue from Dempsey Road to S Park Victoria Drive ▪Edsel Drive from Dempsey Road to South Park Victoria Drive ▪Entire lengths of: Bolton Drive, Churchill Drive, Wellington Drive, Stratford Drive, Devon Place, Sussex Place, Kirkwall Place, Stirling Drive, London Drive, Hastings Drive, Inverness Drive, Berkshire Place, Baron Place, Wessex Place, Canterbury Place, Cardiff Place, Ann Place, Princess Place, Hampton Court, Carson Way, El Camion Higuera, Zamora Court, Nicklaus Avenue, Berg Court, Ranklin Drive, Creed Street, Selwyn Drive, and Shirley Drive.
ANALYSIS:
The Project has been successfully completed within budget. Staff recommends the City Council adopt a Resolution (Attachment 1) granting acceptance of the Project and authorize the City Engineer to file a Notice of Completion in accordance with the provisions of Section 9204 of the Civil Code. Staff also recommends the City Council authorize the City Engineer to issue a notice of final acceptance after the one-year warranty period without further City Council action, provided that all warranty work is completed to the satisfaction of the City Engineer.
POLICY ALTERNATIVE(S):
Alternative 1: Do not adopt Resolution and deny Project acceptance and deny filling the Notice of Completion and not begin the one-year warranty.
Pros: None.
Cons: A denial would result in the City being unable to accept the completed improvements in accordance with the City’s contract with the Contractor.
Reason not Recommended: The Contractor has completed the Project in accordance with the approved Contract Documents. A denial to accept the Project could be considered a breach of contract and risk claim by the Contractor.
FISCAL IMPACT:
None. The Project has been completed within the approved budget. Adequate funding remains in the Project Budget to complete close-out activities. As of March 26, 2024, the balances are $400,376 in CIP 4283, $76,534 in CIP 4303, and $2,328,000 in CIP 4304.
California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA):
The project is exempt under Section 15301 (Existing Facilities) of the CEQA guidelines. A Notice of Exemption (NOE) was filed with the County of Santa Clara on January 31, 2023.

Meeting Date: 4/2/2024
Recommendation: (1) Adopt a resolution to approve project plans & specifications; (2) award the construction contract to the lowest responsible bidder submitting a responsive bid, Mark Lee and Yong Kay Inc, Dba Bay Construction Co., in a total amount of $2,532,000; (3) authorize the City Manager to execute the construction contract with Mark Lee and Yong Kay Inc, Dba Bay Construction Co., (4) authorize the Public Works Director to negotiate and execute contract change order(s) in an aggregate amount not to exceed $380,000; and (5) approve and authorize the City Manager to execute Amendment No. 1 to the Design Services Agreement with Callander Associates Landscape Architecture, Inc. for Sinnott Park Playground design in the amount of $75,000 for ARPA Parks Rehabilitation Phase 2, Project Nos. 3500, 3501, 5110.
BACKGROUND:
On August 9, 2021, City Council approved an allocation of $4,386,815 of American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) funding to address immediate health and safety repairs and short-term improvements of parks in critical and poor condition at 20 parks as identified in the Parks and Recreation Master Plan adopted in December 2021.
On December 6, 2022, City Council awarded a construction contract to G&G Builders, Inc. to address immediate health and safety repairs at nine (9) parks for ARPA Park Rehabilitation Phase 1, Project No. 3500.
Phase 1 work was aimed at addressing failed pour-in-place play surfaces, replacing sand with engineered wood fiber, and replacing aging playground equipment components. The work was completed in December of 2023 at Cerano, John McDermott, O’Toole Elm, Parc Metro Central, Parc Metro East, Pinewood, Selwyn, Sunnyhills Albert Augustine Jr. Memorial and Tom Evatt parks in the approximate amount of $1,116,000.
ARPA Park Rehabilitation Phase 2, Project Nos. 3500, 350, 5110 (“Project”) is included in the adopted 2024- 2028 Capital Improvement Program. The Project provides for the design and construction to address health and safety repairs and short-term improvements of parks in critical and poor condition at 13 parks, namely Ben Rogers, Foothill, Hidden Lake, Murphy, Oliver Jones, Parc Metro West, Robert E. Browne, Sandalwood, Sinnott, Strickroth, Starlite, Sunnyhills Albert Augustine Jr. Memorial, and Tom Evatt. Phase 2 work will focus on ADA compliance, where feasible, replacing aging site furnishings, improving and repairing picnic areas and pathways, improving fitness station and playground areas, and upgrading restroom fixtures to comply with current 2022 Building Codes.
On October 12, 2022, staff issued an RFP seeking a landscape architect firm to provide design and construction support services for the Project and received proposals from Gates and Associates, and Callander Associate Landscape Architecture, Inc. (CALA). The proposals were reviewed and evaluated based on the project team, project understanding, management approach, similar past project experiences, and cost estimate of services. Staff deemed CALA to be the most qualified firm based on the overall evaluation criteria.
On December 6, 2022, the City entered into a Design Service Agreement with CALA in the amount not to exceed $386,814.
The Engineer’s Construction Estimate for the Project’s base bid was $1,995,000 with 6 bid alternates amounting to $456,000 for a total of $2,451,000. The Project Plan title sheet (Attachment 2) is included in the Council’s agenda packet and the complete full-size set of plans and specifications are available electronically upon request to the City Engineer.
ANALYSIS:
The Project was advertised on digital construction trade publications on January 12, 2024, and in the Milpitas Post on January 12 and 19, 2024, in accordance with the bidding requirements of the Uniform Public Construction Cost Accounting Act. A bid opening was held on February 29, 2024, and four sealed bids were received which ranged in base bid prices from $2,065,093.22 to $2,518,000.00. The apparent lowest bidder was Calico California Constructores, Inc. (Calico) submitting a base bid in the amount of $2,065,093.22 and bid alternatives in the amount of $280,118.00. The bid tabulation is listed below and included in the agenda (Attachment 3).

Engineer's Construction Estimate - $1,995,000.00 $456,000.00 $2,451,000.00 Calico California Constructores, Inc. San Pablo, CA $2,065,093.22 $280,118.00 $2,345,210.62 Bay Construction Co. Oakland, CA $2,280,000.00 $252,000.00 $2,532,000.00 Redwood Engineering Construction, Inc. Redwood City, CA $2,420,000.00 $320,000.00 $2,740,000.00 Suarez & Munoz Construction, Inc. Hayward, CA $2,518,000.00 $390,000.00 $2,908,000.00 The bid pricing submitted varies between 0% to 26% over the Engineer’s Construction Estimate. The range of variation in bid pricing is likely due to the current construction market which has been impacted by the economic inflation.
Staff has reviewed Calico’s bid package and determined it is non-responsive. Calico did not follow instructions to submit their bid proposal on the revised bid forms provided in Addendum #3, register for a Unique Entity Identifier (UEI) with the federal government prior to submitting the bid, and failed to provide proof of good faith effort to comply with Disadvantaged Business Entity specifications. Staff informed Calico in writing of their non- responsive bid and Calico issued a letter of acknowledging their bid was non-responsive (Attachment 6).
Also, a bid protest was filed by Mark Lee and Yong Kay Inc, Dba Bay Construction Co. (Bay Construction), on March 05, 2024, with the City in regards to this Project.
Staff reviewed the bid proposal submitted by Bay Construction, the apparent second lowest bidder, and found their bid proposal to be responsive. Staff recommends awarding a construction contract in the base bid amount of $2,280,000 plus alternate bid items 1-6 in the amount of $252,000 in the total amount of $2,532,000 to Bay Construction, the lowest responsible bidder submitting a responsive bid. There is sufficient funding available in the Project budget to award this contract and no additional funding appropriation is required.
The construction contingency established for this Project is $380,000 (15% of contract value) to address any unforeseen conditions that arise during construction. As previously approved for the successful completion of recent projects with tight completion schedules, staff is requesting the use of the same change order policy used for previous projects (Attachment 4). This policy allows for a timely completion of the Project, while addressing the need to respond swiftly to construction conditions and approve necessary change orders to limit potential claims or risks to the City. The change order authority will not be exceeded without prior City Council approval.
During the presentation of the proposed 2025-2029 Capital Improvement Program at the City Council Study Session on February 22, 2024, staff recommended adding a new project with a budget appropriation of $100,000 for conceptual design options to address the aging condition of the playground area at Sinnott Park.
Currently, there is $75,000 remaining in the project budget after award of construction contract for this Project that can be allocated towards the design of the playground at Sinnott Park. Combined with the $100,000 in the proposed 2025-2029 Capital Improvement Program presented at City Council Study Session on February 22, 2024, the design budget would increase to $175,000 which should be sufficient to complete the design of the improvements. Staff is recommending approving Amendment No. 1 to the Design Services Agreement with CALA (Attachment 5) to expedite the schedule of the planning and design phase to determine the project needs and budget, and program the construction into the next capital budget cycle. Staff has negotiated a scope and fee for Amendment No. 1 for a price not to exceed $75,000 which will increase the agreement from $386,814 to $461,814. No additional funding appropriation is required for Amendment No. 1. Upon approval of the conceptual design for the playground area at Sinnott Park, staff will amend the Design Services Agreement with CALA to complete the Contract Documents for construction through the new CIP project which will be available starting on July 1, 2024.
POLICY ALTERNATIVES:
Alternative 1: Deny approval of Project’s plans and specifications and not award the construction contract to Bay Construction.
Pros: None.
Cons: A denial would cause delay in awarding this Project and risk losing the allocated ARPA federal funding if not obligated by the end of the 2024 calendar year.
Reason not Recommended: Delaying the repairs and short-term improvements of parks in poor condition will continue to result in additional degradation of these facilities. Addressing these needed deficiencies should improve the overall condition of the City Park system.
Alternative 2: Deny approval of Amendment No. 1 to the Design Services Agreement with CALA.
Pros: None.
Cons: A denial would cause delay in starting the planning and design phase to address the aging condition of the playground area at Sinnott Park.
Reason not Recommended: The postponement will prolong the schedule and prevent staff from understanding the project needs and budget before the start of the next Capital Improvement Program budget cycle to program funding, if available, for construction.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Adequate funds are available in the Project budget and no additional funding appropriation is required.
As of 03/20/2024, the uncommitted balance of the Project is as follows:
CIP 3501 $ 2,770,957
CIP 3500 $ 120,913
CIP 5110 $ 235,653
Total $ 3,127,523
Summary of Estimated Construction Cost:
Base Bid + Alternate Bids 1-6 $ 2,532,000
15% Construction Contingency $ 380,000
Administration and Inspection $ 137,000
Design Service Agreement-Amendment No.1 $ 75,000
Total $ 3,125,000
CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT:
The project entails replacement or reconstruction of existing structures and facilities where the new structure will be located on the same site as the structure being replaced and will have substantially the same purpose and capacity as the structure replaced and therefore exempt from CEQA pursuant to Cal. Code Regs., tit. 14, § 15302.
RECOMMENDATION:
(1) Adopt a resolution to approve project plans & specifications; (2) award the construction contract to the lowest responsible bidder submitting a responsive bid, Mark Lee and Yong Kay Inc, Dba Bay Construction Co., in a total amount of $2,532,000; (3) authorize the City Manager to execute the construction contract with Mark Lee and Yong Kay Inc, Dba Bay Construction Co., (4) authorize the Public Works Director to negotiate and execute contract change order(s) in an aggregate amount not to exceed $380,000; and (5) approve and authorize the City Manager to execute Amendment No. 1 to the Design Services Agreement with Callander Associates Landscape Architecture, Inc. in the amount of $75,000 for ARPA Parks Rehabilitation Phase 2, Project No. 3500, 3501, 5110.

AGENDA REPORT
(AR)
Item Title: Conduct a Public Hearing to Adopt a Resolution for the Summary Vacation of a Portion of the Existing Public Right-of-Way on Houret Court for the Benefit of an Approved Multi-family Residential Project located at 1752 Houret Court (Staff Contact: Matt Cano, Assistant City Manager 408-586-3012, and Roberto Alonzo, PW Division Manager - Engineering, 408-586-3316)
Category: Public Hearings-Community Development
Meeting Date: 3/19/2024
Recommendation: Conduct a public hearing; and adopt a resolution for the summary vacation of a portion of the existing Public Right-of-Way on Houret Court.
BACKGROUND:
On May 17, 2022, the City Council approved Site Development Permit No. SD21-0012, Conditional Use Permit No. UP21-0006, Vesting Tentative Map No. MT21-0002, and Environmental Assessment No. EA21-0004 to allow development of a 56-unit townhome-style condominium subdivision with 24 ground-floor accessory dwelling units (ADUs) comprised of eight multi-family buildings, up to 48 feet in height (three to four stories), with 84 vehicle parking spaces and associated site improvements, located on a 1.95-acre site at 1752 Houret Court. This project is known as Pinnacle, and the developer is City Ventures Homebuilding, LLC (Developer).
On February 6, 2024, the City Council approved the Subdivision Improvement Agreement (SIA) and Final Tract Map No. 10591 for the Project to guarantee completion of public improvements including installation of asphalt concrete pavement, signing and striping, curb and gutter, sidewalk, driveway approach, utility mains and services, extension of the 8” recycled water main along the project’s Montague Expressway frontage, street lights, landscaping, and other miscellaneous items of work identified on the improvement plans.
ANALYSIS:
The Planning Commission recommended approval of the Project Vesting Tentative Map (Attachment 1) and Conditions of Approval (COA) (Attachment 2) Commission on April 22, 2022, and the City Council approved both items on May 27, 2022. The COA includes Condition No. 38 requiring the Developer to dedicate a new Public Service and Utility Easement along Houret Court and Condition No. 40 to vacate a portion of the existing public right-of-way on Houret Court. These actions would occur once the Developer relocated or removed all existing public utilities within that portion of public right-of-way that will not be part of the new Public Service and Utility Easement. The Developer has dedicated the required right-of-way for public service purposes, including street, sidewalk, storm, sewer, water, gas, electric, telephone and television facilities.
In accordance with Condition No. 38, the approved Subdivison Improvement Agreement (SIA) and the approved Final Tract Map No. 10591, the Developer has dedicated a new Public Service and Utility Easement on Houret Court. The appropriate utility companies have confirmed that they do not have any existing dry utilities within the public right-of-way to be vacated or outside of the new Public Service and Utility Easement on Houret Court. Thus, the utility companies do not object to the proposed public right-of-way vacation.
The Project will result in a reduction in the portion of Houret Court used for street purposes. The City considers that portion of the public right-of-way to be vacated as excess right-of-way not required for street or highway purposes or public use and recommends approval of the proposed vacation. Staff supports the public right-of- way vacation because its location is not compatible with construction of the new development as previously approved by the City Council. The Plat Map and Legal Description (Attachment 3) show the details of the two portions of the public right-of-way, totaling 871 square feet, that is recommended for vacation.
Pursuant to California Streets and Highways Code Sections 8330 and 8334, the City Council may summarily vacate public rights-of-way that are considered excess and not required for street or highway purposes,
provided that an appropriate public service easement is provided and dedicated. Once the Resolution of Summary Vacation (Attachment 4) including Exhibits A and B is adopted by the City Council and recorded with the County of Santa Clara Recorder’s Office, the existing public right-of-way will be vacated.
POLICY ALTERNATIVE(S):
Alternative 1:
Not approve resolution for the summary vacation of a portion of the existing Public Right-of-Way on Houret Court.
Pros: None
Cons: City staff has determined that this portion of the existing public right-of-way is no longer required for public use. The approved project COA No. 40 requires the Developer to vacate this public right-of-way prior to the issuance of the encroachment permit for the construction of the Project’s offsite improvements. The location of the existing public right-of-way is not compatible with the proposed development as approved by the City Council. Not approving the vacation would require the project to be redesigned around the Public Right-of- Way and would require the project entitlement be amended, and the scope of the project would be reduced to work around the existing public right-of-way.
Reason for Not Recommending: To allow the development to be constructed as entitled by the City, staff recommends proceeding with the vacation process to allow the development to move forward.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The Developer reimbursed the city for costs associated with plan review, permitting and construction inspection for off-site public improvements constructed by the Developer. The Developer is funding the construction of the project, including private improvements within the to-be-vacated public right-of-way.
California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA):
On May 17, 2022, the Planning Commission approved Resolution No. 9157 stating that the City, acting as Lead Agency, conducted an initial environmental assessment (P-EA21-0004) of the project in accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). The assessment concluded that none of the circumstances necessitating preparation of a subsequent or supplemental EIR are associated with the Project. The assessment also concluded that an Addendum to the TASP EIR is the appropriate document to address these modifications rather than a subsequent EIR. The Addendum fully addressed all potential impacts associated with this project, and no material changes have been made to the project that would alter the conclusions of the Addendum.
As separate and independent bases, the project is exempt from further CEQA review pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Sections 15182 (Project Consistent with a Specific Plan), 15183 (Project Consistent with the General Plan), and 15168 (Projects Consistent with a Program EIR).
RECOMMENDATION:
Conduct a public hearing; and adopt a resolution for the summary vacation of a portion of the existing Public Right-of-Way on Houret Court.

CITY OF MILPITAS
AGENDA REPORT
(AR)
Item Title: Introduce Ordinance 314, Adding Chapter 15 (“Residential Trespass, Canvassing and Solicitation”) to Title V (“Public Health, Safety and Welfare”) of the Milpitas Municipal Code (Staff Contact: Michael Mutalipassi, City Attorney, 408-586-3040)
Category: Leadership and Support Services
Meeting Date: 4/2/2024
Recommendation: (1) Following the City Attorney reading aloud the title, move to waive the reading beyond the title and introduce Ordinance 314, which would add Chapter 15 to Title V of the Milpitas Municipal Code to prohibit the trespass of canvassers, solicitors and others on residential property; and (2) Make findings of exemption from environmental review pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Sections 15061(b)(3), 15183, 15305, and 15378.
BACKGROUND:
On October 3, 2023, Councilmember Barbadillo proposed that the City explore an ordinance to address unwanted solicitations on residential property to promote community safety. Councilmember Barbadillo pointed out the legitimacy of some home solicitations but also recent, troubling reports from members of the community who feared for their safety or felt intimidated or trespassed upon after being accosted in their homes by uninvited strangers. The City Council voted unanimously to bring this item back for prioritization.
On November 14, 2024, the City Council prioritized this ordinance as a Group 2 item requiring less than four hours of staff work and directed staff to review options and provide Councilmembers with briefings.
On February 20, 2024, the City Council accepted staff’s recommendation to prioritize this as a Group 2 item with the City Attorneys’ Office to bring forward an ordinance for the Council’s consideration in the spring.
Staff surveyed ordinances through the Bay Area and California to craft its recommendation. Courts have generally held that door-to-door solicitation and canvassing is protected speech or association under the First Amendment and have therefore struck down as unconstitutional many types of regulation in this area. In doing so, courts, including the United States Supreme Court, have consistently held that ordinances may enforce a resident’s choice to refuse entry to door-to-door solicitors or canvassers.
ANALYSIS:
The proposed ordinance utilizes a sign-based approach that protects a resident’s right to choose by allowing them to post three different signs depending on who they want to allow onto their property:
- A “No Solicitors” sign would prohibit solicitors offering a good or service or seeking contributions - A “No Canvassers” sign would prohibit canvassers distributing news, information, or views - A “No Trespassing” sign would prohibit any uninvited stranger, including both solicitors and canvassers Regardless of which sign is posted, residents may add exceptions or conditions to the sign to further specify exactly who they are willing to allow on their property. For instance, some residents may be willing to engage with candidates for public office going door-to-door while being unwilling to engage with salespersons. The proposed ordinance is therefore different from other jurisdictions that apply a one-size-fits-all approach where residents can prohibit all uninvited visitors or none. This ordinance is tailored to each resident’s choice.
Besides entering the property or knocking on a resident’s door, the ordinance also prohibits other acts in violation of a resident’s expressed wishes, such as hawking, depositing literature, or otherwise trespassing upon the property or causing or conveying an unwanted act of canvasing or solicitation.
The proposed ordinance clearly describes where signs should be posted – so canvassers or solicitors can look for them – and requires the signs to be conspicuous, visible, and unobstructed. If a sign is not visible from the sidewalk, then individuals are allowed to approach until the sign becomes visible, and then they must leave.
Even if a resident does not post a sign, the proposed ordinance would allow a resident to order uninvited visitors to leave their property. Similarly, even if residents post a sign, they can always give permission for anyone to come on their property. Residents can also withdraw this consent to enter at any time.
To prevent unintended results, the proposed ordinance sets a series of exemptions, including for other residents, neighbors, mail and shipping services, and government entities. These exemptions also apply to anyone entering the property under legal right, such as for service of legal process or a court order, or as part of a dispute where the parties have effective civil remedies, such as landlord-tenant or contractor disputes.
The ordinance treats all solicitors, canvassers, or other trespassers equally and does not discriminate based upon the nature or content of any message an uninvited stranger may wish to deliver at the property.
The ordinance also encourages sponsoring persons or organizations to make those going door-to-door on their behalf aware of the proposed law and – unless they are wholly ignorant that the door-to-door activity is occurring – holds them accountable for any violation if they fail to provide this information.
Ultimately, the proposed ordinance leaves to each resident the right to decide who they will allow on their property. Besides City enforcement, residents can also sue violators who refuse to abide by their posted signs or other expressions of their choice.
POLICY ALTERNATIVE(S):
Alternative 1: Permit-Based Approach
Pros: More effective for combating fraudulent activity, violence, or other misconduct.
Cons: Legal risk, significant cost and investment of staff and program resources.
Reason for Not Recommending: So far, the City has not received the kinds of widespread and consistent misconduct reports that would justify the cost of implementing a permit-based system. Courts have also repeatedly struck down solicitation permits as unlawful prior restrains of free speech and free association.
Alternative 2: Standards-Based Approach
Pros: Can address specific collateral community impacts from canvassing or solicitation.
Cons: Legal risk, redundant with other laws.
Reason for Not Recommending: To the extent the City has received specific reports of misconduct by canvassers and solicitors, which solicitation conduct standards could address, the City already has in place laws that prohibit fraud, disturbing the peace, and other unlawful activity. It is therefore not necessary to adopt regulations limited just to individuals going door-to-door, and courts have repeatedly struck down laws that single out solicitors and canvassers for such treatment.
Alternative 3: Categorical Approach
Pros: Effective for addressing acute, documented issues limited to specific types of solicitors or canvassers.
Cons: Legal risk, not broadly applicable, can undermine resident’s right to choose.
Reason for Not Recommending: Courts have repeatedly struck down categorical prohibitions because of the risk that these laws might be used to discriminate based on viewpoint. The better practice is to allow residents to choose who they will and will not allow onto their property.
FISCAL IMPACT:
There is no cost to adopt the ordinance beyond incidental publication costs and staff time. There will, however, be minor costs associated with the enforcement of the amended ordinance. That cost will be offset by the private right of enforcement, which will allow residents to control their property and vindicate their rights without the City having to unnecessarily expend limited enforcement resources.
CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT (CEQA):
This ordinance is not a project and is not subject to CEQA review because it does not have the potential for resulting in either a direct physical change in the environment or a reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change, particularly in that it does not alter the use of land or at most does not do so inconsistently with uses already authorized, prohibited, or regulated by law. (Cal. Code Regs., tit. 14, § 15378.) This ordinance also is not a project because it amounts to general policy and procedure making that does not relate to the enactment or amendment of zoning ordinances or the other activities identified as potential “projects.” (Cal. Code Regs., tit. 14, § 15378(b)(2).) Furthermore, even if considered a project, this amending ordinance is categorically exempt from CEQA review in that it comprises of non-land use regulations or at most minor alterations in land use limitations that do not result in any changes in land use or density (Cal. Code Regs., tit. 14, § 15305, 15378(a)(1)) and by common sense can be seen with certainly that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment particularly in consideration of the activities already permitted, prohibited, or regulated by law (Cal. Code Regs., tit. 14, § 15061(b)(3)). This amending ordinance is also exempt because it does not affect development density established by existing zoning and the City’s General Plan, for which an Environmental Impact Report was already certified, and does not have any project- specific significant environmental effects peculiar to the project or any site. (Cal. Code Regs., tit. 14, § 15183.) RECOMMENDATION:
Following the City Attorney reading aloud the title, move to waive the reading beyond the title and introduce Ordinance 314, which would add Chapter 15 to Title V of the Milpitas Municipal Code to prohibit the trespass of canvassers, solicitors and others on residential property.
Make findings of exemption from environmental review pursuant to CEQA Guidelines Sections 15061(b)(3), 15183, 15305, and 15378.

RECITALS AND FINDINGS:
WHEREAS, persons and entities have been visiting and continue to visit private residential properties for various uninvited purposes, including peddling goods, wares, merchandise, or services, canvassing for support, polls, volunteers, or other purposes, soliciting for orders, donations, or alms, or preaching, proselytizing, or otherwise discussing or distributing news, information, or views; and WHEREAS, residents are concerned that some of these uninvited visitors are going door-to-door to gather information and scrutinize their homes for future burglaries or other crimes; and WHEREAS, residents complain that they have been harassed, intimidated, threatened, or scared while in their own homes by some canvassers and/or solicitors going door-to-door; and WHEREAS, uninvited door-to-door canvassing and solicitation of unwilling residents for any purpose jeopardizes the right of residents in the city to enjoy the privacy of their homes in tranquility and security; and
WHEREAS, property owners and occupants have the right to reasonably control and peacefully enjoy their residential property, including by preventing unlawful trespass upon that property; and WHEREAS, the interests of residents in the privacy and the quiet enjoyment of residential premises are protected by reasonable regulation of unwanted and uninvited door-to-door visitors; and WHEREAS, the City has the power and legitimate interest to secure to residents their ability to self-determine and control the ability of trespassers to intrude upon their residential property, including by prohibiting unwanted canvassers and solicitors; and
WHEREAS, the distribution of canvassing or solicitation materials upon residential property in the city creates a serious police problem and a threat to public safety and welfare including that residential property can become cluttered with an accumulation of such material or otherwise or in addition inadvertently advertise the absence of the owner or occupant and increase the likelihood of criminal activities on the property; and
WHEREAS, such practices, if not in compliance with the reasonable regulation thereof, are injurious and inimical to the public health, safety, and welfare of residents of the city, create a public nuisance, and should therefore be regulated by the city; and WHEREAS, the City has limited resources and staff with which to remedy violations of this Chapter, and that the enforcement of this Chapter will be enhanced—and the public peace, health and safety will be protected—if the owner, occupant, or other person in charge of or lawfully in possession of the property is given a civil remedy against parties violating this Chapter.
NOW, THEREFORE, the City Council of the City of Milpitas does ordain as follows:
SECTION 1. RECORD AND BASIS FOR ACTION
The City Council has duly considered the full record before it, which may include but is not limited to such things as the City staff report, testimony by staff and the public, and other materials and evidence submitted or provided to the City Council. Furthermore, the recitals set forth above are found to be true and correct and are incorporated herein by reference.
Ordinance No. 3143
SECTION 2. ENACTMENT OF MILPITAS MUNICIPAL CODE TITLE V (“PUBLIC HEALTH, SAFETY AND WELFARE”), CHAPTER 15 (“RESIDENTIAL
TRESPASS, CANVASSING AND SOLICITATION”)
Title V (“Public Health, Safety and Welfare”), Chapter 15 (“Residential Trespass, Canvassing and Solicitation”) of the Milpitas Municipal Code is hereby added to read as follows:
Chapter 15 – RESIDENTIAL TRESPASS, CANVASSING AND SOLICITATION Section 1 – Legislative Findings and Declaration of Intent V-15.1.01
The City finds and declares that persons and entities have been visiting and continue to visit private residential properties for various uninvited purposes, including peddling goods, wares, merchandise, or services, canvassing for support, polls, volunteers, or other purposes, soliciting for orders, donations, or alms, or preaching, proselytizing, or otherwise discussing or distributing news, information, or views. The City recognizes the traditional use of such door-to-door visitations for the purpose of communication and commercial pursuits, particularly among grassroot or community organizations and small or local businesses. The City also recognizes that property owners and occupants have the right to control and peacefully enjoy their residential property, and some residents find these activities to be intrusive upon their quiet and privacy. As such, the City enacts this Chapter for the purpose of securing to residents the power to self-determine and choose whether to allow such unsolicited visitors upon their property, including by posting appropriate signs. This Chapter is not intended to prevent or limit entry upon residential property for lawful and legitimate purposes as opposed to permissive entries that a resident may legally choose to limit or refuse.

In no event may a person so enter the property if he or she knows or reasonably should have known that the property is posted in substantial compliance with Sections V-15-3.02, V-15-3.03, or V-15-3.04. d. A sign posted in substantial compliance with this Section shall be sufficient to sustain a violation.
Where a sign does not strictly comply with this Section, however, there shall be no violation if a defendant can prove by a preponderance of the evidence they neither knew nor reasonable should have known that the property was posted in attempted compliance with Sections V-15-3.02, V-15-
3.03, or V-15-3.04.
V-15-3.06 – Authorization of Police Department to Act
By posting a sign stating “No Soliciting,” “No Canvassing,” “No Trespassing,” or other words to similar effect, the residents of the property shall have authorized any law enforcement officer authorized to enforce a violation of this Chapter to act as their agent for the purpose of enforcement, including warning and forbiting persons from trespassing upon the residential property.

SECTION 3. CALIFORNIA ENVIROMENTAL QUALITY ACT (CEQA)
The City Council finds and determines that the adoption of this ordinance is not a project and is not subject to CEQA review because it does not have the potential for resulting in either a direct physical change in the environment or a reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change, particularly in that it does not alter the use of land or does a most does not do so inconsistently with uses already authorized, prohibited, or regulated by law. (Cal. Code Regs., tit. 14, § 15378.) This ordinance also is not a project because it amounts to general policy and procedure making that does not relate to the enactment or amendment of zoning ordinances or the other activities identified as potential “projects.” (Cal. Code Regs., tit. 14, § 15378(b)(2).) Furthermore, even if considered a project, this amending ordinance is categorically exempt from CEQA review in that it comprises of non-land use regulations or at most minor alterations in land use limitations that do not result in any changes in land use or density (Cal. Code Regs., tit. 14, § 15305, 15378(a)(1)) and by common sense can be seen with certainly that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment particularly in consideration of the activities already permitted, prohibited, or regulated by law (Cal. Code Regs., tit. 14, § 15061(b)(3)). This amending ordinance is also exempt because it does not affect development density established by existing zoning and the City’s General Plan, for which an Environmental Impact Report was already certified, and does not have any project- specific significant environmental effects peculiar to the project or any site. (Cal. Code Regs., tit. 14, § 15183.)
SECTION 4. SEVERABILITY
The provisions of this Ordinance are separable, and the invalidity of any phrase, clause, provision or part shall not affect the validity of the remainder.
SECTION 5. EFFECTIVE DATE AND POSTING
Ordinance No. 3148
In accordance with Section 36937 of the Government Code of the State of California, this Ordinance shall take effect thirty (30) days from and after the date of its passage. The City Clerk of the City of Milpitas shall cause this Ordinance or a summary thereof to be published in accordance with Section 36933 of the Government Code of the State of California.
