CITY OF MILPITAS
AGENDA REPORT
(AR)
Item Title: Consider Opting into Nationwide Settlement Agreements with Additional Opioid Manufacturers (Staff Contact: Matt Cano, Assistant City Manager, 408-586-3050; and Christopher Creech, Acting City Attorney, 408-586-3040) Category: Consent Calendar-Leadership and Support Services Meeting Date: 10/21/2025
Recommendation: Opt into settlement agreements with certain opioids manufacturers, whereby the City will assign will receive the City’s designated share of settlement funds to the County of Santa Clara, and direct and authorize the City Manager to execute settlement agreement(s) and any other documents necessary to implement the action.
BACKGROUND:
In recent years, states, cities, and counties across the United States have sued opioid manufacturers and distributors for their role in the opioid addiction epidemic. Several of these high-profile lawsuits have resulted in nationwide settlements between these government entities and the defendants. Under the terms of these settlements, the opioid defendants have generally been required to pay billions of dollars to state and local governments, which the government entities must use to address the opioid addiction epidemic in their communities. The City has previously opted in to several of these settlements, including with Amerisource Bergen, Cardinal Health, and McKesson, and Janssen on December 7, 2021, with Teva, Allergan, CVS, Walgreens, and Walmart on April 18, 2023, and most recently with Purdue Pharma L.P. and the Sackler Family on September 2, 2025.The City has previously opted into several settlements, including with Amerisource Bergen, Cardinal Health, and McKesson, and Janssen on December 7, 2021 and with Teva, Allergan, CVS, Walgreens, and Walmart on April 18, 2023.
Now, certain governmental entities have reached a settlement in a similar litigation with eight secondary opioid manufacturers for their role in worsening the opioid crisis: Alvogen, Amneal, Apotex, Hikma, Indivior, Mylan, Sun, and Zydus (“Secondary Manufacturers”). These settlements will provide approximately $720 million in cash over a period of 10 years to participating states and subdivisions to remediate and abate the impacts of the opioid crisis. These settlements also include a non-monetary component prohibiting all of the eight manufacturers (with the exception of Indivior) from promoting or marketing opioid products; making or selling high dosage oxycodone pills; and implementing a monitoring and reporting system for suspicious orders.
Indivior has agreed not to manufacture or sell opioid products for the next ten years, however pursuant to the agreement may continue marketing and selling medication to treat opioid use disorder.
While the City did not participate in this litigation, it may opt into these settlements and thereby receive a share of the settlement proceeds in exchange for a release of its claims against the Secondary Manufacturers. ,executedThese funds would be restricted to certain opioid remediation uses. The City may either assign the funds to the County of Santa Clara for county-wide remediation efforts or elect to use the funds directly.
However, if the City elects to directly receive and manage the funds, the City would be subject to strict accounting and reporting requirements, and would likely have to create and partially subsidize additional programs not currently budgeted to operate.
As with the prior settlements, staff recommends the City opt into settlement agreements with these additional manufacturers as well as any future manufacturers that are part of a nationwide settlement agreement and that the City assign its share of the settlement proceeds to Santa Clara County for a coordinated, county-wide remediation effort that will maximize the impact of these funds in the region.
ANALYSIS:
Local governments not direct parties to the litigation – such as the City of Milpitas – must choose to opt into these additional manufacturer settlements by November 5, 2025 to receive a share of these settlement proceeds ($720 million dollars). In exchange, the City would give up any opioid-related claims they may have against the Secondary Manufacturers.
The City has not yet been allocated a percentage of the settlement amount, as that will be dependent upon whether other agencies participate in the settlement and other calculations the Settlement Administrator has yet to perform. However, the settlement does have an escalation clause such that if Milpitas and other Santa Clara County cities opt into the settlement agreement, additional funds will be directed toward Santa Clara County. Similarly, the total amount of settlement funds available for California increases when the state hits a higher percentage of city and county approval.
As with the prior settlements into which the City has opted, the settlement proceeds will be allocated by default to Santa Clara County for a coordinated, County-wide remediation effort.
Each county and city that receives payment of funds from the settlements must prepare written reports at least annually regarding the use of those funds until the funds are fully expended and for one year thereafter. These reports will also include a certification that all funds received have been used in compliance with the allocation agreements. Further, each county and city will need to track all deposits and expenditures. A county is not responsible for oversight, reporting, or monitoring of funds received by a city that receives direct payment within such county. As such, if the City elected to directly receive these funds, in addition to establishing and funding qualifying programs, it would be required to undertake these additional reporting and administration costs without additional compensation.
In deciding whether to allow a city’s funds to go directly to the county in which a city is located, a city should consider the following: (1) whether the amount of money is substantial enough for the city to handle it on its own; (2) whether the city offers the services and has the employees to spend the money in accordance with its prescribed uses; and (3) whether the city wants to engage in the reporting requirements over the course of the next fifteen years.
While the exact amount of money the City could receive annually cannot be calculated at this juncture, it is expected it would not be sufficient to fully fund meaningful programs in Milpitas. The City would likely have to subsidize personnel, administrative, and other costs related to any opioid remediation project. By way of example, in fiscal year 2022-2023, from a $5 billion dollar settlement with Janssen Pharmaceuticals, these Santa Clara County cities received the following distributions for opioid abatement efforts:
City Population (2022) Abatement Amt (2022-2023)
Los Gatos ~31,000 $8,186.76
Campbell ~42,200 $8,927.99
Gilroy ~56,800 $16,092.05
Sunnyvale ~152,700 $34,427.57
Santa Clara ~130,400 $43,600.54
In addition, the Janssen settlement, like the presently proposed settlement, contemplates the highest payout during the first settlement year, which was 2022. Staff therefore does not expect the City would receive sufficient additional settlement funds to justify the additional administrative, accounting, and reporting costs for receiving direct payment. These funds could be more immediately and efficiently used with greater local impact through coordinated regional programing through the County.
As with the prior settlements, staff therefore recommends the City opt into these settlements and allow its share to be assigned to the County. Additionally, staff recommends that if additional manufacturers enter into settlement agreements in the future that the City Council delegate authority to the City Manager to enter into those future settlement agreements.
PROJECT/PROGRAM SCHEDULE:
If the Mayor and City Council approve this action, staff will process the agreement prior to the November 5, 2025 deadline. The timing of receiving any funds following this action is not known at this time.
POLICY ALTERNATIVES:
Alternative 1: Do not opt into the settlements.
Pros: The City could pursue legal action against the additional manufacturers and seek to obtain a more favorable settlement or judgment.
Cons: The City and County would not receive the funds provided for in the proposed settlement agreements with the opioid distributors.
Reason not recommended: The City would have to hire outside legal counsel to independently bring a lawsuit against the opioid distributors with no certain legal outcome. It is unlikely that the City would obtain a sufficiently more favorable result than the present settlement that would justify this additional expense and uncertainty.
Alternative 2: Choose to receive settlement payment directly.
Pros: The City could directly choose to fund qualifying programs with settlement funds.
Cons: The City would be required to undertake additional accounting, reporting, and administration costs, which may not leave sufficient funds to meaningfully provide annual opioid remediation efforts.
Reason not recommended: The City can achieve the most immediate and best local results possible with the limited settlement funds available through a cooperative effort through the County.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Without an additional cost to the City, the City Council decision to opt into the settlement agreements will provide funding for Santa Clara County to run opioid abatement and remediation programs, the services of which are provided to Milpitas residents enrolled in those programs. If the City elected to directly receive these funds, it would incur additional administrative, accounting, and reporting costs in addition to whatever programmatic costs it may ultimately incur for whatever projects it may choose to fund.
CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT:
The action is a fiscal activity of the City government or an action to create a City government funding mechanism that does not involve any commitment to any specific project which may result in a potentially significant physical impact on the environment and is not a project pursuant to Cal. Code of Regs., tit. 14, § 15378. The action has no potential for resulting in either a direct physical change in the environment, or a reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment and is not a project pursuant to Pub.
Resources Code, § 21065 and Cal. Code Regs., tit. 14, § 15378. Even if a project, the action is exempt from further CEQA review pursuant to Cal. Code Regs., tit. 14, § 15061(b)(3) as it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment.

AGENDA REPORT
(AR)
Item Title: Authorize the City Manager, or Designee, to Negotiate and Execute an Agreement with Telemedicine Group DE for Cardio-Metabolic Testing Services (Staff Contact: Luz Cofresí-Howe, Finance Director, 408-586-3111; and Jared Hernandez, Chief of Police, 408-586-2406)
Category: Consent Calendar-Public Safety
Meeting Date: 10/21/2025
Recommendation: Authorize the City Manager, or designee, to negotiate and execute a Professional Services Agreement with Telemedicine Group DE for cardio-metabolic testing services in an amount not-to-exceed $206,640 for the full three-year term.
BACKGROUND:
Law enforcement personnel experience a range of daily stressors during the course of performing their work, which requires direct and continuous support for their mental and physical wellbeing. The number one killer of active and retired law enforcement officers is heart disease, and the risk of heart attack in this population is much higher than their civilian counterparts. Studies have shown law enforcement officers are 25 times more likely to die from a heart attack or stroke than in the line of duty. In fact, law enforcement officers have a life expectancy of 57 (current retirement age) while the civilian population has a life expectancy of 79. Additionally, 45% of law enforcement officers have a heart attack before the age of 45 compared to only 7% in the civilian population. Based on this data, a significant number of officers are expected to suffer a cardiac event during the last five years of their career if proper mitigation efforts are not undertaken.
Telemedicine Group DE, formerly JS MD Sigma dba SIGMA Tactical Wellness, created a customized cardio- metabolic testing program for the early identification and treatment of heart disease in law enforcement personnel, a testing protocol otherwise not available through standard medical insurance. In 2022, the Police Department contracted with JS MD Sigma dba SIGMA Tactical Wellness to conduct a pilot program to provide preventative cardiovascular screening to City law enforcement personnel, and over 80% of the Milpitas Police Department staff, both sworn and non-sworn, voluntarily participated and provided overwhelmingly positive feedback. Following the successful pilot period, staff executed new annual contracts in 2023 and 2024 to continue these services in accordance with City Municipal Code Section I-2-3.13. Use of consultants whose services are valued over $100,000 must be approved by the City Council pursuant to Municipal Code section
3.13-2.
ANALYSIS:
The current agreement with JS MD Sigma, PLLC dba SIGMA Tactical Wellness expired September 30, 2025.
To continue these services and be more resource efficient, staff would like to enter into a three-year agreement with the vendor, now known as Telemedicine Group DE, to continue these services. Since the three-year not- to-exceed amount will be $206,640, City Council approval is required.
The City has a vested interest in prioritizing the health and wellbeing of their employees. Offering these preventative cardio-metabolic testing to Police Department personnel on an ongoing basis will contribute to their long-term health and wellbeing, which can directly impact public safety. Investing in the health and wellbeing of law enforcement employees will not only help participating employees be more productive but will also help retain and attract future employees. Through this program, the City will help support career longevity and reduce worker’s compensation liability to the City.
PROJECT/PROGRAM SCHEDULE:
If the City Council approves this action, staff would continue the implementation of this program immediately and services will continue annually throughout the contract period.
POLICY ALTERNATIVE(S):
Alternative 1: Do not authorize the City Manager, or designee, to negotiate and execute a Professional Services Agreement with Telemedicine Group DE.
Pros: The City would not incur the costs for services.
Cons: The City would not be able to offer these services to support the health and wellbeing of law enforcement personnel.
Reason for Not Recommending: These services support law enforcement personnel wellness, enhance recruitment and retention efforts, and assist in maintaining public safety service levels in Milpitas by retaining healthy and productive law enforcement staff.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Funding for this service is included in the FY 2025-26 Adopted Operating Budget. Funding in future fiscal years will be evaluated and amended as part of the annual budget process and is subject to the annual appropriation of funds.
CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT (CEQA):
The action has no potential for resulting in either a direct physical change in the environment, or a reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment and is not a project pursuant to Pub. Resources Code, § 21065 and Cal. Code Regs., tit. 14, § 15378. Even if a project, the action is exempt from further CEQA review pursuant to Cal. Code Regs., tit. 14, § 15061(b)(3) as it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have significant effect on the environment. The action is continuing administrative activity related to staffing of certain services and therefore is not a project pursuant to Cal. Code Regs., tit. 14, § 15378.

CITY OF MILPITAS
AGENDA REPORT
(AR)
Item Title: Authorize the City Manager to Execute a Grant Agreement with the Office of Traffic Safety to Accept the Fiscal Year 2026 Office of Traffic Safety Selective Traffic Enforcement Program Grant and Approve the Related Budget Appropriation (Staff Contact: Jared Hernandez, Chief of Police, 408-586-2406) Category: Consent Calendar-Public Safety
Meeting Date: 10/21/2025
Recommendation: Authorize the City Manager, or designee, to execute a grant agreement with the Office of Traffic Safety and take such other actions as necessary to accept and implement the Fiscal Year 2026 Office of Traffic Safety Selective Traffic Enforcement Program Grant and approve the related budget appropriation in the amount of $110,000.
BACKGROUND:
The California Office of Traffic Safety (OTS) administers the Selective Traffic Enforcement Program (STEP) that offers grant funds from OTS to reimburse law enforcement agencies for overtime expenditures specifically directed toward traffic safety operations.
The grant funding is directed at conducting best practice strategies to reduce the number of persons killed and injured in traffic related collisions involving impaired driving and other primary collision factors. The funded strategies may include enforcement operations focusing on impaired driving, distracted driving, nighttime seatbelt use, motorcycle safety, and pedestrian and bicycle safety. Operations are conducted in areas with a disproportionate number of traffic collisions. Other funded strategies may include public education and police department staff training.
The City of Milpitas has been approved for a reimbursement grant of $110,000.00 to conduct driving under the influence (DUI) saturation patrols, DUI checkpoints, traffic enforcement operations, distracted driving enforcement, motorcycle safety, pedestrian and bicycle safety, public education, equipment purchases, and training on an overtime basis in conjunction with STEP between October 1, 2025, and September 30, 2026.
ANALYSIS:
The City of Milpitas is not required to accept the OTS STEP grant funding; however, traffic safety is a paramount concern in the City and this funding will help address traffic safety issues throughout the City. If accepted, the City must agree to utilize the funding for enforcement events, public education, and/or training related to specific traffic safety issues. The grant, which will be appropriated to the Police Department’s FY2025-26 operating budget, will fund the following during the grant period:
1. Personnel: Overtime for Enforcement Events……………………….$ 86,800
2. Travel: In-state Travel for Related training and Events………………...3,100
3. Equipment and Supplies: Light Tower & DUI Checkpoint Supplies…20,100 Total…………………$ 110,000
Examples of specific traffic safety issues to be addressed with the grant funding include but are not limited to:
DUI, distracted driving, seat belt violation, and pedestrian/bicycle safety. Enforcement and public education are important components to reducing collisions and saving lives. The light tower to be purchased with grant funds uses LED bulb technology and will replace an existing light tower that uses clandestine bulbs. The replacement light tower offers improved energy efficiency, increased bulb life, and decreased maintenance costs. It will primarily be used for scene lighting during DUI checkpoints to ensure proper lighting for officer and community safety. Additionally, the tower can be used for other purposes such as crime scene investigations requiring
additional lighting, community events like 4th of July, and other department needs for mobile lighting. The old tower will be retained as a backup light tower that can still be used for similar purposes. The funding for DUI checkpoint supplies will be used to purchase 28” traffic cones, Manual on Uniform Traffic Control Devices (MUTCD) compliant traffic signs, MUTCD compliant high-visibility traffic vests, a gas generator, reflective banners, electronic flares, heaters, anti-fatigue standing mats, handheld Preliminary Alcohol Screening devices (PAS), PAS supplies, and rain canopies. This grant will fund three (3) DUI checkpoints as well as other targeted enforcement activities to be conducted on a reimbursed overtime basis.
POLICY ALTERNATIVE(S):
Alternative 1: Refuse the fiscal year 2026 Office of Traffic Safety Selective Traffic Enforcement Program grant of $110,000.
Pros: There are no identified benefits to this alternative.
Cons: The Police Department would not be able to increase overtime enforcement, public education, or training towards traffic safety.
Reason for Not Recommending: The FY 2026 OTS STEP grant award does not require matching funds nor are there any requirements that result in a negative impact. The City will be reimbursed for the expenses incurred.

1. PROBLEM STATEMENT
Describe the city, county, or jurisdiction this grant will impact.
The City of Milpitas is located in northern Santa Clara County and is often referred to as the "Crossroads of Silicon Valley." It has become a vital commuter link between Silicon Valley and communities in the Central Valley. Major roadways, including Highways I-680, I-880, State Route 237, and Montague Expressway, facilitate significant vehicular traffic through the city. The Santa Clara Valley Transportation Authority (VTA) operates a central hub at the Great Mall of Milpitas, and the city also features a Bay Area Rapid Transit (BART) station with a six-story parking garage, which attracts visitors from across the Bay Area; daily ridership is projected to be around 10,000.
Milpitas has a residential population exceeding 80,273 people, and despite covering only 14.5 square miles, there are 139 miles of surface streets. This leads to tens of thousands of vehicles passing through the city each day, creating congestion and safety challenges for the local police department. In addition to being a thoroughfare for many drivers, Milpitas serves as a destination for workers and consumers from various Bay Area communities. The city is home to the corporate headquarters and satellite campuses of several international companies, contributing to a daytime population that exceeds 100,000.
Milpitas is also the location of the Great Mall of the Bay Area, the largest indoor outlet and shopping destination in Northern California, offering over 1.3 million square feet of retail space, more than 200 stores, and over 32 dining options. This expansive shopping mall attracts residents from Santa Clara County, neighboring Alameda County, and beyond. Combined with the presence of various Silicon Valley corporate headquarters in Milpitas, these factors significantly increase the volume of vehicular traffic during weekdays.
Additionally, both Levi's Stadium and Avaya Stadium are located in nearby cities, contributing to traffic congestion on game days.
Describe the problem(s) to be addressed, supported by current and relevant crash data. (most recent calendar year data/stats).
The Milpitas Police Department (PD) upholds a strict enforcement policy for traffic violations, which has resulted in a decrease in both traffic infractions and the number of injury and fatal crashes. However, like many law enforcement agencies, the Milpitas PD has faced staffing shortages even as calls for service have increased over time, putting a strain on resources. This has led to a reduction in the Traffic Safety Unit (TSU) from 13 positions to just 3. Currently, the unit consists of one Traffic Sergeant and two motorcycle officers responsible for handling crash investigations and traffic enforcement.
To effectively tackle traffic safety concerns despite officer shortages, the TSU collaborates with the Traffic Engineering department to conduct city-wide speed surveys. Additionally, grant-funded overtime allows for focused traffic violation enforcement, which helps to reduce the primary factors contributing to crashes. With funding provided by the Office of Traffic Safety (OTS), the department is able to assign additional officers for targeted enforcement of these primary crash factors. Furthermore, agencies throughout Santa Clara County have enhanced their collaborative enforcement efforts. Through partnerships with the city’s Traffic Engineering and neighboring agencies, the Milpitas PD continues to work on maintaining and reducing incidents of injury and fatal crashes.
Thanks to the support and partnership with OTS STEP grants, the department has been able to increase traffic enforcement despite staffing shortages. Grant funding has enabled the department to conduct additional traffic enforcement without impacting daily operations. Moreover, patrol officers interested in joining the TSU have volunteered to participate in various OTS campaigns, which has helped them gain a better understanding of vehicle code and traffic safety. Additionally, due to grant funding, the department has conducted at least two DUI/CDL checkpoints per grant year. Despite the depletion of department funds for staffing overtime, these enforcement efforts remain a priority.
Define the target population the grant intends to serve and how they are affected by the problem(s).
8/14/2025 1:17:29 PM Page 4 of 17
The city's crash data from the past three years indicates a steady increase in both the number of crashes and the number of injuries resulting from these crashes. The primary factors contributing to these incidents have remained consistent: Unsafe Speed, Red Light Violations, and Unsafe Turning Movements. Notably, the frequency of these factors has also risen (see the Traffic Data Summary below).
As Milpitas serves as a major crossroads for many commuters heading to the Bay Area, these primary crash factors often occur on the main thoroughfares throughout the city, affecting both commuters and residents.
With our continued partnership and funding from the OTS STEP grant, we can continue best practices and focused enforcement designed to allow the Department success in addressing the problems associated with DUI drivers, red light runners, speeding vehicles, aggressive driving, and distracted driving, pedestrian, and bicyclist safety programs. This coupled with education, we can continue our goal to further reduce the incidence of injuries and fatalities caused by the previously mentioned primary crash factors, to enhance traffic enforcement activities and address safety concerns in the City of Milpitas. Making our city a safer community for everyone.

CITY OF MILPITAS
AGENDA REPORT
(AR)
Item Title: Adopt a Resolution Accepting Completed Public Improvements and Authorizing Bond Reduction and Release for the Parkside Phase 2 Project at 1992 Tarob Court (Staff Contact: Christian Di Renzo, Public Works Director, 408-586-2602; and Michael Silveira, City Engineer, 408-586-3303) Category: Consent Calendar-Community Development
Meeting Date: 10/21/2025
Recommendation: Adopt a resolution to (1) accept the completed public improvements; (2) approve a reduction in the faithful performance bond to $115,250; and (3) authorize the City Engineer to release the performance bond after the one-year warranty period without further City Council action, provided all required warranty work has been completed to the satisfaction of the City Engineer for the Parkside Phase 2 Project at 1992 Tarob Court.
BACKGROUND:
On September 3, 2019, the City Council approved the Subdivision Improvement Agreement (Agreement) with Toll West Coast, LLC (Developer) for Parkside Phase 2 Project, Tract No. 10455 (Project) to construct 53 condominium units on a 2.3-acre site located at 1992 Tarob Court within the Metro Specific Plan area. The Project has been completed including public improvements constructed along Tarob Court and Lundy Place.
Public improvements included concrete improvements such as curb and gutter, driveway aprons and sidewalk; resurfacing of the asphalt pavement; utility improvements such as sewer, storm, and water main and services; and streetscape improvements such as landscaping, signage, and streetlights.
ANALYSIS:
The Developer has successfully completed all required public improvements for the Project in accordance with the Agreement and City-approved Public Improvement Plans, No. 2-1310. The completed public improvements are now ready for acceptance by the City Council thereby commencing the one-year warranty period.
In accordance with City Municipal Code XI-1-17.05 – Improvement Security: Release or Reduction, staff recommends the City Council adopt a Resolution (Attachment 1) granting acceptance of the public improvements; approve a reduction of the performance bond to $115,250, which is 25% of the security’s original value; and grant authorization to the City Engineer to release the performance bond after the one-year warranty period without further City Council action provided all required warranty work is completed to the satisfaction of the City Engineer.
PROJECT/PROGRAM SCHEDULE:
Following this action, the City Engineer will release the performance bond after the one-year warranty period provided all required warranty work is completed.
POLICY ALTERNATIVE(S):
Alternative: Not approve resolution granting acceptance of public improvements including the reduction of the faithful performance bond.
Pros: None
Cons: Not granting acceptance of public improvements would limit public use of the improvements and does not promote orderly completion and closeout of the Project. Also, not granting acceptance would conflict with the City obligation under the Subdivision Improvement Agreement.
Reason for Not Recommending: Granting acceptance of the completed public improvements would allow public use of the improvements and allows for the completion and closeout of the Project as required by the Subdivision Improvement Agreement.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Public improvements completed as part of the Project will be perpetually owned and maintained by the City following acceptance by the City Council and expiration of the one-year warranty period. The Public Works Department will be responsible for maintenance of the improvements and any additional funding required for ongoing maintenance will be requested through future budget appropriations as the Council adopts the annual operating budget for the Department.
CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT (CEQA):
The action has no potential for resulting in either a direct physical change in the environment, or a reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment and is not a project pursuant to Pub. Resources Code, § 21065 and Cal. Code Regs., tit. 14, § 15378. Even if a project, the action is exempt from further CEQA review pursuant to Cal. Code Regs., tit. 14, § 15061(b)(3) as it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment. At most, the action relates to construction and acceptance of a limited number of new, small facilities or structures or the installation of small new equipment and facilities – including a limited number of water main, sewage, electrical, gas, and other utility extensions, including street improvements, of reasonable length to serve approved construction – and therefore is exempt from CEQA pursuant to Cal. Code Regs., tit. 14, § 15303.
Environmental analysis of the construction of public improvements was analyzed at the time the overall project, including the Subdivision Improvement Agreement, was considered and approved by the City Council, and no further environmental analysis is required, including because none of the factors identified in Pub. Res. Code § 21166 and Cal. Code Regs., tit. 14, § 15162 are met.

CITY OF MILPITAS
AGENDA REPORT
(AR)
Item Title: Authorize the City Manager, or Designee, to Negotiate and Execute an Amendment to the Agreement with W.W. Grainger, Inc. for the Purchase of Maintenance Supplies, Equipment, Tools, and Parts for the Public Works Department (Staff Contact: Luz Cofresí-Howe, Finance Director, 408-586-3111; and Christian Di Renzo Public Works Director, 408-586-2602) Category: Public Safety
Meeting Date: 10/21/2025
Recommendation: Authorize the City Manager, or designee, to negotiate and execute an amendment to the agreement with W. W. Grainger, Inc., to continue purchasing high quality maintenance supplies, equipment, tools, and parts for a four-year term in an amount not-to-exceed $549,000 for the full term of the contract agreement.
BACKGROUND:
The Public Works Department (PW) has an active Cooperative Purchase Agreement Contract (#189) with W.W. Grainger Inc. (Grainger) for the term of August 28, 2024, through November 8, 2028. Ongoing purchases have been made both through in-store and third-party deliveries. Primary purchases include miscellaneous equipment, parts, tools, and supplies in support of the City’s maintenance operations. An initial purchase order was established for $99,000 in FY 2024-2025.
Grainger, located on the border of Milpitas and San Jose, has proven to be a trusted supplier with a robust inventory providing the City with the right products in the right quantities at the right times. Their proximity and wide range of supplies has significantly contributed to the City’s operational readiness, minimizing downtime and preventing operational delays. Grainger’s products are used throughout the various maintenance and repair disciplines within the Public Works Department ranging from power tools to ladders to pipe materials.
ANALYSIS:
Historically, Public Works has averaged approximately $96,000 in annual spending with Grainger over the past three fiscal years. In Fiscal Year 2024-2025, Public Works entered into a cooperative purchase agreement with Grainger to leverage an existing competitively-bid contract established through another agency’s Request for Proposal (RFP) process. This cooperative purchase approach streamlines administrative processes, enhances efficiencies, and provides economies of scale by combining the purchasing power of multiple agencies. The pricing under this cooperative agreement has already been negotiated and reviewed by the Purchasing Agent, who determined it to be the most advantageous option for the City.
The original contract value reflected only the anticipated spending for Fiscal Year 2024-2025, rather than the estimated total amount for the full contract term. Typically, multi-year agreements are funded and encumbered on a year-by-year basis. During FY 2024-2025, Public Works exceeded the authorized purchase agreement amount by $26,000. However, the additional funding was within Public Work’s authorized budget appropriations. Public Works is requesting an increase of $450,000 to the authorized cooperative purchase agreement amount, for a revised not-to-exceed amount of $549,000 for the full term of the contract agreement.
The agreement is set to expire on November 8, 2028.
It is critical the City has a reliable local source as Grainger to provide high quality maintenance, repair, and operating (MRO) supplies, equipment, tools, parts, janitorial, plumbing, electrical and other critical maintenance materials. Products are offered at competitive pricing through Sourcewell COOP 091422-WWG that supports cost control. Their products’ reliability also reduces the total cost of ownership by minimizing the need for frequent replacements or repairs.
On July 26, 2022, the Sourcewell Cooperative (Sourcewell), a Minnesota municipal contracting agency, solicited Request for Proposal (RFP) #091422 Facility MRO, Industrial, and Building Related Supplies and Equipment. On November 7, 2022, contract No. 091422 was awarded by Sourcewell to Grainger pursuant to the aforementioned RFP. Consistent with Section I-2-3.05 of the Municipal Code, which authorizes the Purchasing Agent to make purchases based upon an agreement or cooperative purchasing program entered into by another public agency, the Purchasing Agent has reviewed all the documentation from Sourcewell and has determined the underlying agreement or program was made utilizing competitive negotiation or procurement procedures at least as restrictive as the City’s, and the price quoted is the same as offered in the original contract.
PROJECT/PROGRAM SCHEDULE:
Upon City Council approval of this action, equipment, parts, tools and supplies would continue to be purchased from Grainger on an as-needed basis.
POLICY ALTERNATIVE(S):
Alternative 1: Do not amend the agreement to increase the purchase amount by $450,000, for a revised not- to-exceed amount of $549,000, for the continued procurement of equipment, parts, tools, and supplies for the City’s Public Works Department.
Pros: City can save funds by not purchasing required maintenance supplies, parts, tools, and equipment.
Thereby, contributing directly to reducing the City’s deficit.
Cons: Public Works will not be able to properly maintain the City’s vehicles, motorized equipment, facility related items that are critically needed to support the City’s operational mission.
Not having the required maintenance parts, supplies, tools, and miscellaneous equipment could directly impact safety of City staff.
FISCAL IMPACT:
There are sufficient funds available in the FY 2025-26 operating budget for the Public Works Department to cover the costs of maintenance supplies. Funding for the remaining years of this contract will be covered within the various existing ongoing appropriation amounts in the Public Works Department for maintenance, repair and capital replacement; subject to the annual appropriation of funds.
CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT (CEQA):
By the definition provided in the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines Section 15378, this action does not qualify as a “project” for the purpose of CEQA, as it has no direct, or reasonably foreseeable indirect, physical change to the environment.

Item Title: Adopt a Resolution to Approve Project Plans and Specifications; Award the Construction Contract to Innovative Construction Solutions; and Authorize the Design Services Agreement Amendment No. 2 with MNS Engineers, Inc. for the Gibraltar Pump Station Valves Replacement Project (Staff: Christian Di Renzo, Public Works Director, 408-586-2602; and Michael Silveira, City Engineer, 408- 586-3303)
Category: Consent Calendar-Community Services and Sustainable Infrastructure Meeting Date: 10/21/2025
Recommendation: Adopt a resolution to: (1) Approve the Project plans and specifications; (2) Award the construction contract to Innovative Construction Solutions in the amount of $1,310,000; (3) Authorize the City Manager, or designee, to execute the construction contract with Innovative Construction Solutions; (4) Authorize the Public Works Director to negotiate and execute contract change order(s) in an aggregate amount not to exceed $196,500; and (5) Approve and Authorize the City Manager, or designee, to execute Amendment No. 2 to the Professional Services Agreement with MNS Engineers, Inc. in the amount not to exceed of $32,198 for the Gibraltar Pump Valves Replacement Project, Project Nos. 7133 and 7141.
BACKGROUND:
The Gibraltar Pump Station Valves Replacement Project, CIP Nos. 7133 and 7141 (Project), is included in the adopted FY 2025-2029 Capital Improvement Program. Built in 1991, the Gibraltar Pump Station Facility (Facility) is a critical City facility that stores water supplied from San Fransico Public Utility Commission (SFPUC) and Santa Clara Valley Water District (VW) into two 4 million-gallon above-grade reservoirs which totals half of the City’s storage capacity. The Facility consists of seven pumps that convey water to service City water zone areas SF1, SF2, VW1 and VW2, directly or indirectly. Based on the preliminary condition assessment as part of the adopted 2020 Water Master Plan, the consequence and likelihood of failure rating for this Facility was deemed to be “Very Likely.” The Project provides for design and construction to replace twenty (20) valves that reached the end of their service life, repair corroded sections of piping, and complete minor electrical upgrades.
On November 1, 2023, the City entered into a Professional Services Agreement (PSA) with MNS Engineers, Inc. for the planning and design services of the Project for a not-to-exceed amount of $98,100. On July 28, 2024, the City authorized Amendment No.1 to the PSA to include design services for additional valve replacements in the amount of $31,680, which increased the total compensation to $129,780.
ANALYSIS:
The Project was advertised on the City eProcurement system, OpenGov Procurement, and digital construction trade publication on August 8, 2025, and in the Milpitas Post on August 8 and 15, 2025, in accordance with the bidding requirement of the Uniform Public Construction Cost Accounting Act. It was also posted at City Hall, Sports Center, and Senior Center per City Council direction and Government Code section 36933. The bid opening was held on September 10, 2025, and seven (7) sealed bids were received with the price ranging from $1,310,000 to $2,106,715 based on the Project Plans and Specifications (Attachment B). The apparent lowest bidder is Innovative Construction Solutions, submitting a bid in the amount of $1,310,000. The Summary of Bid Results is as follows and detailed information about the bid results (Attachment C) are included in the Council’s agenda packet.
Bidder Location Base Bid
Engineer’s Construction Estimate - $1,500,000
Innovative Construction Solutions Concord, CA $1,310,000 Corcus Construction, Inc. San Francisco, CA $1,390,500
Anderson Pacific Santa Clara, CA $1,404,000
GSW Construction Inc. San Francisco, CA $1,515,800
Turnkey HVAC Hayward, CA $1,760,000
ACCO Engineering Systems San Jose, CA $1,804,850
Preston Pipelines Milpitas, CA $2,106,715
The bid prices submitted ranged from 13% below to 40% over the Engineer’s Construction Estimate which is $1,500,000. The wide variation is likely due to the current construction market which has been affected by inflation and tariffs, instability of supply chains, bidder’s ability to self-perform work, workload schedule, bidder overhead cost and profit margins thresholds, and material and labor markup.
Staff reviewed the bid proposal submitted by Innovative Construction Solutions and found their bid proposal to be responsive. Staff recommends awarding a construction contract in the amount of $1,310,000 to Innovative Construction Solutions as the lowest responsible bidder submitting a responsive bid and approve the Project’s Plans and Specifications. No bid protests were filed with the City. There is sufficient funding available in the CIP Nos. 7133 & 7141 to award this contract and no additional funding appropriation is required.
Despite the Consultant’s best effort to capture all relevant information in the Plans and Specifications, a challenge is the discovery of unforeseen existing conditions typically related to the connection of new valves to existing piping and repair of corrosion pipes that may create conflict with the proposed design. The construction contingency established for this Project to address any unforeseen conditions that arise during construction is $196,500 which is 15% of the total contract value. 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 D). This policy allows for 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.
Staff also recommends the approval of Amendment No. 2 to the PSA with MNS Engineers, Inc. (Attachment E) to provide construction support services. The services will include construction observation and meetings; reviewing and responding to change order requests, requests for information, and material submittals from the contractor; addressing minor design changes due to unforeseen conditions; and project closeout. Staff has negotiated a scope and fee for Amendment No. 2 in a not-to-exceed amount of $32,198, which will increase compensation of the agreement from $129,780 to $161,978. No additional funding appropriation is required for Amendment No. 2.
PROJECT/PROGRAM SCHEDULE:
The anticipated delivery of the valves is estimated between 6 to 9 months for 20 valves; therefore, the Project is anticipated to be completed by Fall 2026.
POLICY ALTERNATIVES:
Alternative 1: Do not approve the Project’s Plans and Specifications and not award the construction contract to Innovative Construction Solutions.
Pros: The Project will not move forward, and the designated funding would be returned to the Water Enterprise Utility fund balance.
Cons: A denial would cause a delay in completing the necessary replacement of the valves to resolve operational deficiencies and repairs to corroded sections of piping that will continue to deteriorate. Being proactive with maintenance and upgrades of the Facility will increase its reliability and safeguard against unanticipated emergencies and shutdowns that could result in an inability to delivery water throughout the community.
Reason not Recommended: The Project is essential to ensuring the City maintains the operational storage capacity mandated by the State’s Division of Drinking Water. Not addressing these necessary repairs and replacements will put the Facility at risk of a system shutdown, jeopardizing the supply of drinking water and fire flow to the City’s water zone areas SF1, SF2, VW1 and VW2.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Adequate funds are available in CIP Nos. 7133 and 7141 and no additional funding appropriation is required.
As of September 16, 2025, the uncommitted balance of the Project is as follows:
CP 7133 $1,357,000.00
CP 7141 $1,685,000.00
Total $3,042,000.00
Summary of Estimated Construction Expenditures
Construction Contract $ 1,310,000
15% Construction Contingency $ 196,500
Amendment No. 2 $32,198
TOTAL $ 1,538698
CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT (CEQA):
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 replaced and will have substantially the same purpose and capacity as the structure replaced and is exempt from CEQA pursuant to Cal. Code Regs., tit. 14, § 15302.

AGENDA REPORT
(AR)
Item Title: 2025 Legislative Season Update and 2025 State and Federal Earmark Requests Update (Staff Contact: Alex Andrade, Director of Economic Development and Strategic Initiatives, 408-586-3046)
Category: Community Development
Meeting Date: 10/21/2025
Recommendation: Review and accept the 2025 Legislative Season Agenda Report, including an update on 2025 State and Federal Earmark Requests.
BACKGROUND:
On May 18, 2021, the City Council approved the Legislative Advocacy Policy for the City of Milpitas (Attachment A). Its purpose is to establish clear guidelines for advancing City goals and positions through legislative review and advocacy at the regional, state, and federal levels of government and to provide guidance for City officials who serve on regional, state, and national boards, committees, and commissions when they are asked to review public policy matters and issues. The Legislative Advocacy Policy has governed the City’s legislative activity at the Federal and State levels since 2021.
This Agenda Report provides a high-level overview of the Federal Fiscal Year 2026 budget (H.R. 1, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act) and the State of California’s Fiscal Year 2026 budget. It also includes staff’s preliminary insights on the potential impacts of these legislative actions on the City of Milpitas and the community.
On October 1, 2025, an Information Memorandum (Attachment B) that summarized the City’s legislative activity during Fiscal Year 2025 was provided to the City Council. Attachment B has been revised to include the City’s most recent earmark applications, legislative positions, and reflects an overview of the City’s congressionally-directed funding requests, state funding requests, and formal positions taken on relevant legislation.
ANALYSIS:
The analysis section below provides an overview of actions under the recently approved One Big Beautiful Bill Act and the California State Fiscal Year 2025-2026 Budget that may have a direct impact on the City of Milpitas and the community.
Impact of the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (OBBBA) on the City of Milpitas H.R. 1 (OBBBA) reduces direct financial support for certain state and local priorities, specifically in climate initiatives and social safety net programs, and places a greater emphasis on tax incentives for private investment. This is likely to increase the burden on California’s State budget, which may result in reduced support to local governments. Consequently, local governments may be forced to prioritize revenue-generating developments over other community needs. It is essential to note that many of the downstream effects of H.R. 1 are unclear currently, as certain of its provisions do not take effect immediately. Please note: the federal government is shut down at the time of the development of this Agenda Report. The Affordable Care Act (ACA) is central to the negotiations between the majority and minority parties. As such, the information in this analysis on the ACA may be subject to change if an agreement is reached that includes concessions from the congressional majority.
• Funding for Medicaid
o Includes a $1 trillion reduction in federal Medicaid spending, which will have a significant and direct impact on low-income populations.
o California’s state budget will bear a larger share of Medicaid and Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) costs, potentially leading to reduced state funding for the local social safety net, in turn potentially leading to increased pressure on local governments to cover service gaps. If the State and County of Santa Clara reallocate their budgets to limit the negative impacts on populations that rely on these programs, there are likely to be cuts in other areas, like discretionary spending. This is already impacting Milpitas: none of the City’s funding requests to Assemblymember Lee and Senator Wahab were approved for the State FY26 Budget, with these cuts specifically being cited by elected officials as the reason. o On September 16, Santa Clara County Supervisor Otto Lee and Santa Clara Valley Healthcare CEO Paul Lorenz provided a presentation to the City Council to outline the substantial negative impacts that H.R. 1 will have on Santa Clara County’s resources. The presentation drew attention to the projected $1 trillion cut to Medicaid and the $186 billion cut to SNAP. As a result, Santa Clara County and Santa Clara Valley Healthcare predicted significant annual losses in revenue for Santa Clara Valley Healthcare of $1 billion starting in 2027. In response to these impending revenue gaps, Santa Clara County’s Board of Supervisors declared a fiscal emergency and has advanced Measure A to be considered in the November 2025 election.
Measure A proposes a 0.625% sales tax increase for five years and is expected to generate $330 million per year. However, this only partially fills the predicted gap in revenue. o In addition to cuts to Medicaid, states will be required to redetermine eligibility twice a year, including individuals between ages 19 and 64, to verify at least 80 hours of work or qualifying activities per month.
o According to Santa Clara County, approximately 1 in 5 Milpitas residents, around 16,000 people, rely on Medicaid. Recent changes are expected to significantly increase the number of uninsured individuals in the city. Without health insurance coverage, many health conditions may go undiagnosed or untreated, potentially leading to a rise in emergency medical calls to the City Fire Department and impacting its personnel resources and budget. Meanwhile, residents who choose to purchase insurance independently may face substantial financial strain and be forced to reduce their discretionary spending. This shift could negatively affect local sales tax revenues as consumer spending on non-essential goods and services may decline.
• Changes to Medicare and Funding for the Affordable Care Act (ACA) o Limits Medicare eligibility to U.S. citizens, green card holders, certain immigrants from Cuba, and people residing under the Compacts of Free Association (i.e., Micronesia, Marshall Islands, and Palau). It removes eligibility for all other groups, including refugees, asylees, and those with temporary protected status. Ineligible groups will be notified by July 4, 2026, and benefits will be terminated on January 4, 2027.
o Introduces multiple changes that increase administrative and financial burdens for enrollees receiving premium tax credits, including eliminating automatic enrollment and provisional eligibility, removing repayment caps, shortening open enrollment, ending income-based special enrollment periods, adding new income verification requirements, and funding cost-sharing reductions that are likely to raise premiums and functionally push many people towards being uninsured.
o Without health insurance coverage, untreated health issues may increase emergency calls and strain the City’s Fire Department personnel resources and budget, while residents buying insurance independently may reduce discretionary spending, potentially lowering local sales tax revenues.
• Funding for Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) o Includes a $186 billion reduction to SNAP through 2034. More stringent work-documentation filing requirements will be mandatory for SNAP recipients, including for working-age veterans, recipients experiencing homelessness, youth aging out of foster care, and married, stay-at- home parents. SNAP benefits will also be restricted for immigrants who are not legal permanent residents.
o These cuts are likely to result in an increased reliance on food pantries and other community- based organizations. Additionally, the financial strain on households may contribute to a decline in local sales tax revenue.
• Funding for Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) o Provides substantial earmarks for ICE, including $45 billion to increase detention capacity and $30 billion to increase enforcement staff. Additionally, it provides $12.1 billion to be used flexibly by the Department of Homeland Security to support deportations and immigration enforcement.
This has already resulted in notable enforcement actions within California and in Santa Clara County. Immigrants make up 40.6 percent of Santa Clara County’s population, but account for
49.9 percent of its employed labor force (Source: County of Santa Clara), driven largely by technology companies. Highly visible immigration enforcement actions on undocumented populations have significant downstream effects of contributing to a more hostile environment towards legal immigrants and people of color. This may have a lasting impact on whether highly skilled foreign nationals choose to locate in Silicon Valley and in the United States, which may affect workforce development and talent searches.
o It is worthwhile to note that, while not because of H.R. 1 and because of an executive order on September 19, 2025, President Trump’s administration announced a new annual $100,000 fee for H-1B visas for high-skilled workers. Due to Silicon Valley technology companies' current reliance on H-1B visas, this policy may result in an acceleration of offshoring that reduces sales taxes and increases vacancies in office and multi-family properties. o A portion of the additional funding allocated to ICE will be directed toward immigration enforcement efforts during the 2026 Super Bowl and FIFA World Cup. Public statements made by senior officials in President Trump’s administration may discourage international visitors from attending these events, potentially reducing the positive economic impact that is anticipated by the Bay Area Host Committee.
• Changes to Community Development Block Grants (CDBG)
o Senate appropriations bill 2465 outlined $3.1 billion for CDBG for fiscal year 2026, which is a reduction from the $3.3 billion earmarked for fiscal year 2025. o The Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) has reduced its workforce by approximately 30% since the beginning of the year and has placed 75% of its remaining employees on furlough because of the ongoing shutdown of the federal government. o A recent executive order from the Trump administration mandated a new compliance standard to ensure that CDBG funds only benefit persons with documented immigration status. This policy may have a direct impact on some of the non-profits that the City of Milpitas assigns CDBG funds to, and creates a new reporting requirement for both recipient organizations and the City.
o On October 3, the City Manager’s Office released a letter to notify subrecipients that, due to new and unclear compliance requirements in HUD’s revised FY 2025-2026 CDBG grant agreement, there is a risk that anticipated funding may be delayed or unavailable, and any expenses incurred before a formal agreement is executed may not be reimbursed.
In addition to the restrictive mandates of H.R. 1 on social safety net programs and related budget items, H.R. 1 includes a variety of individual and business tax measures designed to encourage business activity. This includes individual and business tax cuts that may translate into some positive economic benefits for Milpitas, notwithstanding additional expenditures that result from the above cuts. However, as the impacts of H.R. 1 are not clear at this time, and many of its key measures do not take effect immediately. Any positive impacts that are hypothesized in the analysis section below should be qualified accordingly. • Notable Individual Tax Provisions
o Temporarily increases the federal State and Local Tax (SALT) deduction cap from $10,000 to $40,000 between the 2025 and 2029 tax years for taxpayers with income under $500,000. The deduction cap and the income phasedown threshold both increase by 1% each year from 2026 through 2029. Because California has a higher state income tax than most other states, the adjustment of the deduction cap will have a significant impact and provide Bay Area residents with additional spending capacity. This may translate into increased consumer spending and sales tax revenue. It is important to recognize the temporary nature of this adjustment. Although it may lead to increased sales tax revenue, staff recommends the City budget for a decrease in sales tax revenue in 2030 after the deduction cap sunsets in 2029.
o Makes the 2017 marginal tax rate cuts permanent.
o Establishes a policy that exempts tips from federal taxes, allowing employees to deduct up to $25,000. It also exempts overtime pay from federal taxes, permitting a deduction of up to $12,500. Both measures aim to provide financial relief to working-class Americans. Additionally, the bill eliminates federal tax on car loan interest for U.S.-assembled vehicles, up to $10,000 per year, and permanently increases the Child Tax Credit for over 40 million families. It also establishes an additional $6,000 for senior individuals (or $12,000 for joint filers) with income under $75,000 (or $150,000 for joint filers). The deduction phases out for taxpayers making over $75,000 annually.
o The Bill makes permanent an increased Child Tax Credit of $2,200 and indexes it to inflation. o Like the SALT deduction cap increase, these provisions may result in people retaining more money from their paycheck at the lower and middle ends of the pay scale, and may result in more spending/consumption and related sales tax revenue.
• Notable Business Tax Provisions
o Makes permanent and furthers several business tax incentives from the 2017 Tax Cuts and Jobs Act. These provisions offer substantial incentives for businesses to invest in new equipment, expand their operations, and create jobs within local jurisdictions. o Renews 100% bonus depreciation for qualifying equipment purchases. Establishes the Qualified Production Property deduction, which includes manufacturing and production facilities, allowing these properties to be 100% expensed.
o Makes permanent various tax code incentives, such as Section 174 Research Expensing for domestic research costs, Section 163(j) Interest Deduction Limit for excluding amortization, depreciation, and depletion from adjusted taxable income calculations, amongst others, that can help boost domestic research and production.
o Increases the Section 179 Small Business Expensing Cap from $1.25 million to $2.5 million. o Makes permanent the 199A Qualified Business Income deduction at 20% for qualified business income.
o These provisions are likely to have a positive impact on the technology and advanced manufacturing sector. Increased business activity and new construction can boost local government revenues through higher property taxes, sales taxes, and potentially more income from business license fees/taxes.
• Changes to Inflation Reduction Act Tax Credits and Elective Pay o Repeals or restricts numerous tax credits that previously qualified for elective pay for certain energy and climate resiliency projects through aggressive phase-out timelines for specific credits and eliminates others. Residential solar and energy-efficient home improvements are set to expire after December 31, 2025. Accelerates the phasing out of several key clean energy tax credits, including clean air vehicle purchases, which ended on September 30, 2025. o These measures are likely to undermine Milpitas’ 2019 Climate Action Plan, increase long-term climate-related risks and costs for communities, and potentially slow down the transition to a greener economy in California. Rivian purchases have not qualified for these credits since the beginning of the year due to the composition of its battery system, but leases have. This may have some impact on the anticipated sales tax revenue from the tax sharing agreement between Rivian and the City. However, the change is likely to have a greater impact on sales tax revenues from Envision Honda and Toyota dealerships because those brands have been beneficiaries of the credit.
• Low-Income Housing Tax Credit
o Permanently increases Housing Credit allocations by 12%, which helps states finance more affordable rental housing projects every year.
o Permanently reduces the “50% test” to 25%, which will make it much easier to finance affordable homes using tax-exempt bonds.
o These measures may incentivize the development of a greater number of affordable housing units, which, in aggregate, increases supply and brings down the rental cost burden on renters.
Additionally, these demographics are more likely to spend larger portions of their income on sales tax-generating purchases.
California 2025 Landscape
FY 2025-2026 Budget
California enacted the FY 2026 state budget with an approximately $11.8 billion budget deficit. The budget was balanced through a combination of program reductions, cuts, and the use of reserves. The changes at the federal level through the passage of H.R. 1, compounded by the January fires in Southern California, have resulted in reduced spending in several key areas and are directly evidenced by the City of Milpitas’ four proposals remaining unfunded in the recent budget. Additionally, the budget is informed by the State’s revised economic forecast. Tariffs, inflation, reduced growth rates, and rising unemployment have led to lower revenue forecasts, particularly in consumption and income sources. • Medi-Cal
o A sizable portion of the program cuts and reductions are Medi-Cal related. The state has enacted a Medi-Cal enrollment freeze for undocumented adults, eliminating dental benefits for undocumented adults, and reducing coverage for weight loss medication. Beginning on July 1, 2027, Medi-Cal members between the ages of 19 and 59 who are undocumented will be required to pay a $30 monthly premium to keep coverage. o The cuts to Medi-Cal, imposition of monthly premiums, and reinstatement of asset limits will directly impact the state’s most vulnerable populations. These reductions are likely to increase demand on local safety net services like Santa Clara County Healthcare, emergency rooms, and social service agencies.
• Homelessness Programs
o Funding for homelessness programs is also impacted: the Homeless Housing, Assistance, and Prevention (HHAP) Program will not receive any new funding in FY2026. Homeless Housing, Assistance and Prevention Program funds are contingent on a compliant Housing Element, a local encampment policy consistent with state guidance, a Pro-Housing Designation, a demonstration of progress on key housing performance metrics, amongst other requirements. o This is likely to result in increased visible homelessness and further strain on local resources; it is effectively a transfer of responsibility and will force cities and counties to find alternative funding sources or reduce services. The City of Milpitas does not receive any money from this funding source, but the City of San José and the County of Santa Clara do. If these agencies’ resources come under strain, it may increase reliance on Milpitas’ homeless resources and emergency services.
• Housing
o $120 million for the Multifamily Housing Program, which is one-third of last year’s allocation. o $500 million for the Low-Income Housing Tax Credit program, consistent with last year. o $300 million for the California Dream for All program. o No support for the Bay Area Housing Finance Authority (BAHFA). o Budget trailer bills AB 130 and SB 131 impose a six-year suspension on new residential building standards at both the state and local levels through 2031 to help stabilize construction costs and provide regulatory certainty. This is paired with CEQA streamlining tools that are likely to accelerate the delivery of infill housing and critical infrastructure projects, such as high-speed rail facilities, utilities, broadband, and community-serving facilities, amongst others. o These measures are expected to stimulate the development of both affordable and market-rate housing, potentially increasing property tax revenues and permit fees, while advancing the City of Milpitas' Housing Element goals and meeting its Regional Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA) targets.
• Public Safety
o The budget provides a one-time allocation of $100 million to support the implementation of Proposition 36’s (2024 Drug and Theft Crime Penalties and Treatment-Mandated Felonies
Initiative) “treatment-mandated felony” court process for some drug crimes. This may be insufficient to meaningfully advance the goal of the Proposition to reduce drug and theft crimes.
SB 79 Housing Development: Transit-Oriented Development • Governor Newsom signed SB 79 into law on October 11. The City of Milpitas submitted letters of opposition to this bill on May 1, August 22, and September 5, citing its marked infringement on local control. SB 79 functionally overrides the City of Milpitas’ Housing Element by exempting housing development projects near transit stops from the City zoning ordinance. Transit agencies now have the ability to determine all aspects of residential development, including height, density, and design, without regard to local zoning or planning, as the bill supersedes local zoning rules. • It establishes two tiers of Transit-Oriented Development (TOD):
o Tier 1: A Transit-Oriented Development Stop within an urban transit county (i.e., county with more than 15 passenger rail stations) served by heavy rail transit or very high frequency commuter rail.
o Tier 2: A Transit-Oriented Development Stop (excluding Tier 1) within an urban transit county served by light rail transit, high-frequency commuter rail, or by Bus Rapid Transit. • Projects that meet certain density thresholds may qualify for additional concessions under California’s Density Bonus Law, and an “adjacency intensifier” allows further increases in height, density, and floor area ratio (FAR) for projects near TOD stops. To qualify, SB 79 projects must include at least five housing units at a minimum density of 30 units per acre, include low-income housing, and cannot involve hotel development or demolition of rent-controlled units. Local zoning standards may apply only if they don’t prevent compliance with SB 79, and eligible projects may receive streamlined, ministerial approval under SB 35, potentially exempting them from CEQA. SB 79 will take effect on July 1, 2026. • SB 79 residential development projects may negatively affect the City’s plan for developing the Innovation District on the approximately 75 acres of land adjacent to the Milpitas Transit Center and may reduce opportunities for revenue generation and job creation through the Milpitas Metro Specific Plan. • SB 79 could allow residential development in commercially zoned areas near a transit-oriented development stop that currently do not allow for residential development, resulting in the loss of retail and office space within the City.
• SB 79 also appears to prohibit cities from imposing maximum residential densities, which could allow for more residential development than anticipated in the General Plan and analyzed in the associated Environmental Impact Report and various master plans, resulting in significant impacts to the City’s transportation, recreational, and utility infrastructure.
PROJECT/PROGRAM SCHEDULE:
Staff will continue to track and monitor the impact of H.R. 1 (OBBBA) on City of Milpitas projects and programs and update the Mayor and City Council as developments occur.
FISCAL IMPACT:
Any fiscal impact will be identified when, and if, the implementation of a particular legislation requires City Council approval or funding. This would typically occur during the City’s annual budget approval process.
CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT (CEQA):
The action is an organizational or administrative activity of the City government that will not result in direct or indirect physical changes in the environment and is not a project pursuant to Cal. Code of Regs., tit. 14, §15378.

DATE: October 2, 2025
TO: City Council
VIA: Deanna J. Santana, City Manager
FROM: Alex Andrade, Director of Economic Development & Strategic Initiatives
SUBJECT: 2025 Legislative Activity Update
BACKGROUND:
On May 18, 2021, the City Council approved the Legislative Advocacy Policy for the City of Milpitas. Its purpose is to establish clear guidelines for advancing City goals and positions through legislative review and advocacy at the regional, state, and federal levels of government and to provide guidance for City officials who serve on regional, state, and national boards, committees, and commissions when they are asked to review public policy matters and issues. The Legislative Advocacy Policy has governed the City’s legislative activity at the Federal and State levels since 2021.
In January 2023, the City contracted with Kiley & Associates for services that included tracking legislation and issues that were deemed important to the City, advocating or opposing legislation that significantly impacts the City, and engaging with State and Federal agencies to expedite reimbursement for expenditures, clarify administrative rulings, and advocate for funding requests. Kiley & Associates specializes in advocacy at the Federal level, and the ir subconsultant firm Gonsalves & Sons provide s advocacy services at the State level. On June 3, 2025, the City Council approved the Fiscal Year 2025 - 2026 Operating Budget, which included a budget reduction for the legislative support program . This resulted in the contract for Kiley & Associates and their subconsultant Gonsalves & Sons not being renewed. To continue advancing its legislative advocacy efforts, the City will leverage its existing resources and partnership with Santa Clara County’s legislative group, the League of California Cities, and the National League of Cities.
This Information Memorandum serves as an update on the City’s legislative activity during the 2025 calendar year. It i ncludes congressionally directed funding requests, state funding requests, legislative positions the City of Milpitas has taken, and new laws that affect the City of Milpitas.
ANALYSIS:
This Information Memorandum serves to provide the City Council with 2025 legislative season updates, which align with Legislative Advocacy Policy 4.4. The document covers the City of Milpitas’ advocacy of earmarked Federal and State funding and legislative positions, including preparation and issuance of letters of support and opposition to bills that are currently under consideration by the California Attachment B

legislature and Governor . The funding request status described below is current as of September 29, 2025. Staff will provide subsequent updates as they are made available.
Funding Requests
The City can request funding for specific projects as a part of the Federal and State budgets each fiscal year. Portions of discretionary spending in the Federal and State budgets can be designated to these projects through advocacy from elected officials. Staff submitted a list of proposals to federal and state- level elected officials. The list of projects submitted was informed based on the priorities of Federal and State elected officials and based on conversations with their respective staff. Staff have been informed of which federal earmarks are being supported by the elected officials to whom they were submitted.
The State of California adopted a balanced budget for Fiscal Year 2025 -2026 in July; however, none of the City’s requests were included. The checkmarks in the table below denote that the project was submitted to the respective elected official. The green checkmarks illustrate that the application is being moved forward by the elected official.

detention area when the pump station is at full capacity. To provide a level of design protection and eliminate the periodic flooding within the park, a new station is required with a capacity of at least 243 cubic feet per second, which is 1.6 times larger than the existing station’s capacity. An order of magnitude estimate for design and construction is $15 million, with design estimated at $3 million. This project is identified as the highest priority project in the City’s adopted 2021 Storm Water Master Plan. The City’s earmark application of $3 million is to support the design phase of the project.
Senator Padilla and Adam Schiff’s Offices confirmed that the Jurgens Pump Station funding request has been submitted to the Senate Appropriations Subcommittees on Energy and Water. Staff is currently working with both Senators’ offices to ensure that this project makes it into the Senate bill.
Representative Khanna’s Office confirmed that the Jurgens Pump Stations funding request was submitted to the House Appropriations Subcommittee on Energy and Water. However, the project was ultimately not included in the House of Representatives’ Energy and Water Development and Related Agencies Appropriations Act, 2026 bill.
Main Street Revitalization and Safety (Khanna)
The application requested funding to extend beautification upgrades from North Main Street to South Main Street’s historic core. This includes the installation of tree grates, historic wayfinding signage, new lighting (replacements of lights), and other fixtures that distinguish Main Street as a special district in Milpitas. The improvements will benefit the pedestrian experience in the area by furthering placemaking and advancing the economic development goals of the Gateway -Main Street Specific Plan. The City’s Community Project Funding request application was for all or a portion of $1.9 million to support Main Street Revitalization and Safety.
Representative Khanna’s Office confirmed that the Main Street Revitalization funding request was submitted to the House Appropriations Subcommittee on Transportation, Housing, and Urban Development. This funding request was reduced to $250,000 in the House of Representatives Appropriations Committee’s draft bill and is the result of both last year’s application and this year’s application.
Main Street Revitalization and Safety (Lee)
The City submitted a funding request for the same project at the Federal level, but requested a lower dollar amount from the State. State funding is for extending beautification upgrades from North Main Street to South Main Street’s historic core. This inc ludes the installation of tree grates, historic wayfinding signage, new lighting (replacements of lights), and other fixtures that distinguish Main Street as a special district in Milpitas. The improvements will benefit the pedestrian experience in the are a by furthering placemaking and advancing the economic development goals of the Gateway -Main Street Specific Plan. The City’s funding application amount equaled $1.5 million to support the implementation of the proposal. The funding request was not included in the State’s Fiscal Year 2026 Budget.

Public Safety Microgrid (Padilla, Schiff, Khanna)
The project consists of installing a solar-microgrid-battery system at the facility housing the City’s Police Station, 911 Call Center, Public Works, and IT Departments. This project ensures these critical facilities can operate during power outages and reduces daily greenhouse gas emissions. The system is expected to generate nearly 100% of the facility’s energy needs. This project will serve as a model for other public safety agencies and businesses. The City’s earmark application is for $4.5 million.
Senator Padilla and Senator Schiff’s O ffices have confirmed that the Public Safety Microgrid funding request has been submitted to the Senate Appropriations Subcommittee on Transportation, Housing, and Urban Development, and Related Agencies.
Representative Khanna’s Office communicated that this project would not advance for appropriations.
Urban Search and Rescue Vehicle (Padilla, Schiff)
In 2000, the Milpitas Fire Department acquired a heavy rescue apparatus (USAR-86). The primary mission of a heavy rescue is to provide the Fire Department with a multifunction apparatus that can carry and rapidly deploy the thousands of pounds of heavy rescue equipment required to manage the variety of Special Operations and Technical Rescue Incidents that an urban “all hazards” F ire Department can be expected to respond to. The current equipment is at the end of its useful life. The City has allocated nearly $400,000 for this equipment. The City’s application requested support for all or a portion of the remaining funding, $1.4 million, necessary to purchase the new equipment.
Senator Padilla’s Office has confirmed that this project was submitted to the Senate Appropriations Subcommittee on Transportation, Housing, and Urban Development, and Related Agencies.
Milpitas SMART (Wahab, Lee)
The City’s application requested continuation funding for the City of Milpitas SMART program. SMART is an ongoing program that provides micro -transit connection services throughout Milpitas. It operates similarly to other ride-hailing services and is a point-to-point service, offering rides from any virtual stop to another virtual stop within Milpi tas. This service carries an average of 213 riders per weekday, primarily catering to less mobile populations, including seniors, the disabled, low -income individuals, and students. These populations make up 70% of the program’s ridership. If approved, the funding would allow the service to continue for an additional 18 months. This City’s funding application amount is $3 million to support the implementation of the proposal. The funding request was not included in the State’s Fiscal Year 2026 Budget.
Rent Relief (Wahab, Lee)
MEMORANDUM
455 E. Calaveras Blvd., Milpitas, CA 95035 www.milpitas.gov Superior Customer Service Open Communication Integrity and Accountability Trust and Respect Recognition and Celebration Office of the City Manager
The City’s application requested c ontinuation funding for the City of Milpitas’ rent relief program (approximately $700,000 per year). Milpitas households at or below 120% of the Area Median Income (AMI) are eligible to receive up to $5,000 per calendar year for rental assistance. Two hundred eleven households accessed the program in FY2024. This City’s funding application amount is $2.1 million to support the Rent Relief program. The funding request was not included in the State’s Fiscal Year 2026 Budget.
Unhoused Services (Wahab, Lee)
The City’s application requested continuation of funding for homeless services , such as homeless outreach and case management (approximately $200,000) and weekly mobile shower and laundry services (approximately $50,000 per year). A discontinuation of this program would hinder the City’s ability to respond to reports of homeless encampments and assistance for basic human needs. This City’s funding application was $750,000 to support the Unhoused Services program. The funding request was not included in the State’s Fiscal Year 2026 Budget.
2025 Legislative Action Positions
Per the City legislative policy, the City Manager’s Office coordinates with the Mayor to identify state bills in their early stages that are likely to have an impact on Milpitas. Per Legislative Advocacy Policy on Procedures, 4.3 (1.1.2), the Mayor or City Manager may sign a letter supporting or opposing legislation on behalf of the City if the proposed legislation is generally consistent with the City’s Legislative Guiding Principles. The City has officially taken positions on twelve bills during the 2025 legislative season through support and opposition letters from Mayor Montano.

Subject: Important Update: Potential Non-Receipt of CDBG Funds This Fiscal Year
Dear Subrecipient,
We are writing to inform you of an important update regarding the City of Milpitas’ Fiscal Year 2025-2026 (FY 25-26) CDBG entitlement funding which was recommended for allocation to various programs and services as part of Item 16 at the June 3, 2025 meeting of the Milpitas City Council. The City recently received the new and revised United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) Federal Award Grant Agreement (Agreement) which must be signed before the City can receive, and distribute, the FY 25-26 entitlement funding. The Agreement introduces new policies with unclear compliance requirements. Without further guidance, the City is unable to confidently sign the agreement with these terms at this time. As a result, there is a possibility that you may not receive your expected FY 25-26 CDBG entitlement funds from the City of Milpitas as previously anticipated. We recognize that this uncertainty may affect your planning and operations, and we wanted to notify you as early as possible.
As a reminder, reimbursable activities can only occur after an agreement has been executed between the City and a subgrantee. Please be aware that if you choose to use funds for activities or projects in Milpitas prior to completion of an executed agreement, you do so at your own risk. These expenses may not be reimbursed, including if the City ultimately does not receive FY 25-26 entitlement funding from HUD.
We recommend that you exercise caution and carefully consider this risk in your financial decisions. We will keep you informed of any updates or confirmations regarding funding as soon as more information becomes available.

CITY OF MILPITAS
AGENDA REPORT
(AR)
Item Title: Report on Violations of the City’s Code of Conduct, Council Handbook, Open Government Ordinance, and Municipal Code (Staff Contact: Deanna J. Santana, City Manager, 408-586-3050)
Category: Leadership and Support Services
Meeting Date: 10/21/2025
Recommendation: Discuss violations and determine manner in which the Council will hold one another accountable consistent with the Council Code of Conduct and other applicable rules and policies.
The City of Milpitas has a Code of Conduct, Council Handbook, Municipal Code, and various laws that establish rules and regulations for a Councilmember’s conduct, authority and, overall, how to perform the work of an elected official. The Council Code of Conduct specifically states that the Council will “respect the line between policy and administration” and “hold one another accountable to comply with this Code of Conduct.”
In accordance with the above, the purpose of this memo is to formally report to the Council that there has been a series of violations by Councilmember Evelyn Chua and allow for the Council to discuss its Code of Conduct and determine next steps. I am delayed in sharing this information because I have been coordinating this public report with the Acting City Attorney who issued an attorney-client memorandum on October 8, 2025.
BACKGROUND:
During the week of August 24, 2025, Councilmember Chua took several actions in violation of the Code of Conduct, Council Handbook, and Municipal Code when an Office Specialist was directed to schedule a Special City Council Closed Session meeting to interview a city attorney candidate with the full Council in attendance.
In the process of trying to schedule this meeting, Councilmember Chua did not consult with the appropriate staff responsible for the City’s noticing requirements and directed an Office Specialist that the meeting needed to be confidential without any other staff involvement, to poll the Council for availability, and reserve a room for this Council meeting (Exhibit 1).
In California, when a Councilmember directs staff to schedule a meeting that is not legally noticed, it can lead to a violation of the Ralph M. Brown Act--the state's open meeting law. The Act prohibits secret meetings and requires that the public be given notice and an opportunity to participate in local government. A Councilmember who violates these rules can face both civil and criminal penalties. Please see below for more information about Brown Act Violations:
Intentional violation:
• A councilmember who intentionally acts in violation of the Brown Act to deprive the public of information is guilty of a misdemeanor.
• Illegal action: The Brown Act requires local agencies to hold meetings in public and post a proper agenda for special meetings at least 24 hours in advance. If a special meeting is called without this notice, any decision made during that meeting can be declared void by a court.
• Subverting the process: The Brown Act applies to any gathering of a majority of a legislative body to "hear, discuss or deliberate" on matters within its jurisdiction. Directing staff to subvert the public notice process to conduct a meeting in secret is a serious violation of the act's mandate for transparency.
Civil and administrative penalties:
• Voiding the action: Any action taken during a meeting that violates the Brown Act can be challenged in court and declared null and void.
• Legal fees: The city could be sued to invalidate the action, with the agency responsible for paying the legal costs and attorney's fees if the challenge is successful.
