2. Authorize the City Manager or designee to amend the professional services agreement with CSG Consultants, Inc., a California corporation (Entity No. 2249340), for Street Reconstruction (Miramonte Avenue), Project 25-28, to add $403,000 for additional services, for a total not- to-exceed amount of $550,000.
BACKGROUND
Prior Action and Status on Various Miramonte Avenue Capital Improvement Projects
On December 10, 2019, the City Council adopted a Vision Zero Policy which established the goal of reaching zero fatal traffic collisions by 2030. This multi -departmental policy, led by the Public Works Department, aims to address fatal and severe collisions by implementing proven safety measures, such as low -stress bikeways and improved pedestrian crossings, on the City’s high - injury network and suggested school routes.
On June 11, 2019, the City Council approved funding for Street Resurfacing and Slurry Seal Program, Project 20-01 (Project 20-01), including Miramonte Avenue, between Cuesta Drive and Castro Street/Marilyn Drive (“Segment B” in Figure 1). This roadway segment includes a segment adjacent to Graham Middle School.
On April 26, 2022 , Council approved a two -way Class IV protected bikeway within Segment B , between Castro Street/Marilyn Drive and Hans Avenue, and inclusion into the design curb extensions and enhanced crosswalks across Miramonte Avenue at Hans Avenue (Project 20-01).
On June 27, 2023 Council approved the road diet alternative and o n June 25, 2024 Council
Miramonte Avenue Complete Streets Study, Project 23-31 – Final Report Street Reconstruction (Miramonte Avenue), Project 25-28 – Professional Services Agreement January 27, 2026
approved the plans and specifications for the road diet for Segment B (Project 20 -01). The Segment B project, from Cuesta Drive to Castro Street/Marilyn Drive , includes the following elements (see Figure 2):
• Pavement resurfacing between Cuesta Drive and Castro Street;
• Removal and replacement of damaged concrete sidewalk, curb, and gutter;
• Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA)-compliant curb ramps;
• Infill of a sidewalk gap along Miramonte Avenue between Barbara Avenue and Starr Way;
• Class II buffered bike lanes on both sides of the street;
• Class IV bikeway (two -way separated bike lanes) on the east side of Miramonte Avenue between Hans Avenue and Castro Street in place of a Class II bike lane;
• Landscaped median adjacent to the Class IV bikeway, with irrigation and low water use shrubs;
• Curb extensions (bulb-outs) and storm drain modification at Hans Avenue;
• An overhead rectangular rapid flashing beacon (RRFB) at the Miramonte Avenue and Hans Avenue intersection; and
• Road diet lane reconfiguration from a four - to three -lane road that includes a two -way center left-turn lane.
On September 23, 2025, Council took the following actions:
1. Accepted the bid withdrawal and relieved the bid of the apparent low bidder, Interstate Grading and Paving, Inc., of San Francisco, for Miramonte Avenue Improvements, Project 20-01, without forfeiting its bid security on the basis that a clerical error was made in assembling the bid, as provided in Sections 5101 and 5103 of the California Public Contract Code.
2. Authorized the City Manager or designee to amend the professional services agreement with Bellecci & Associates, Inc., a California corporation (Entity No. 1665633), to provide additional design services for Miramonte Avenue Improvements, Project 20 -01, to add $60,000 for a total amount not-to-exceed $300,000.

Miramonte Avenue Improvement Elements – El Camino Real to Castro Street (Segment A)
On June 25, 2024, the City Council approved funding for Street Reconstruction (Miramonte Avenue), Project 25-28, as part of the adoption of the Fiscal Year 2024-25 Capital Improvement Program. Project 25-28 will resurface the roadway and implement improvements between El Camino Real and Castro Street as recommended by the Miramonte Avenue Complete Streets Study, Project 23 -31, (see Segment A on Figure 1). Subject to Council approval , the project elements may include one or more of the following in addition to the street pavement resurfacing:
• Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA)-compliant curb ramps; • Four-lane to two-lane road-diet;
• Class IV protected bikeways or Class II bike lanes;
• High-visibility crosswalks and advance stop bars;
• Median island reconstruction to accommodate new left-turn lanes; and • Rectangular Rapid Flashing Beacon (RRFB) signal crossings at Trophy Avenue and Park Drive.
Community Feedback Regarding Miramonte Traffic Concerns (December 16, 2025 Council Meeting)
On December 16, 2025, Council took several actions in relation to the Housing Element, including introducing an ordinance and adopting several resolutions for amendments to the General Plan, Zoning and Precise Plans for various property locations. One of the locations was at 1702 Miramonte Avenue. At the December 16 Council meeting there was community feedback regarding traffic concerns at and near the Cuesta/Miramonte and Sladky/Miramonte intersections. Concerns included the que ue backup created from left turn movements into and out of Sladky Avenue from and to Miramonte Avenue, as well as overflow parking from businesses spilling into the residential neighborhood west of Miramonte Avenue. In response to this feedback, Public Works staff identified both near-term solutions that staff will undertake and long-term strategies that Council may evaluate this spring.
The near-term solutions include:
• Evaluating the restriction of left-turn movements into and out of Sladky Avenue from/to Miramonte Avenue, which will include data collection. After review of the data, staff will determine if any turn restrictions would be substantiated, and engage the neighborhood accordingly. Implementation of restrictions could be incorporated with the Miramonte Paving project (Cuesta to Castro) starting construction this spring, or independently.
Miramonte Avenue Complete Streets Study, Project 23-31 – Final Report Street Reconstruction (Miramonte Avenue), Project 25-28 – Professional Services Agreement January 27, 2026
• Observing the signal timing of the Cuesta/Miramonte intersection and if signal adjustments are recommended, incorporating those adjustments.
• Evaluating requests submitted by the public for site specific parking concerns. Staff will review these locations for sight visibility concerns and should staff find it warranted, red curb will be installed where appropriate.
The left turn restriction evaluation and signal timing observations will occur by this spring. The evaluation of specific parking concerns will begin as soon as staff receives public submissions and will be ongoing.
For long-term strategies, as part of Council’s review of the next Capital Improvement Program in spring 2026, staff will identify a possible traffic study as a future new project. This will allow staff and Council to consider the study in context with the workload of other transportation project requests. The study could review the configuration of the Cuesta/Miramonte and Sladky/Miramonte intersections and determine the feasibility of improvements that may be implemented to improve intersection operations.
ANALYSIS
Public Outreach and Feedback
For Miramonte Avenue Complete Streets Study, staff conducted two rounds of public outreach - in the Fall of 2024 and in the Summer of 2025. For both outreach rounds, public engagement notifications included yard and pole signs, social mediaposting, as well as email blasts to schools and subscribers of active transportation projects (Figure 3). The outreach notifications also included 2,567 postcards to all addresses within 750’ on both sides of Miramonte Avenue in Segments A, B, and C (Figure 4). Staff went door -to-door on two occasions to all businesses on the corridor and placed flyers on cars parked on Miramonte Avenue.

Outreach Round 1
During the first round of outreach, staff gathered feedback on existing conditions and potential improvement ideas for Segments A and C of Miramonte Avenue. Engagement methods included an online survey, a community bike
ride (Figure 5), a neighborhood
walk, staff -level meetings with
Valley Water, a hybrid community
meeting, and pop- up events at
Graham Middle School and Bubb
Elementary School.
Feedback from this round of
outreach highlighted concerns
about high vehicle speeds, the wide
roadway along Miramonte Avenue,
and gaps in bike facilities near El
Camino Real and Sonia Way. Survey
respondents also suggested
potential improvements, such as a
Class IV protected bikeway, high -
visibility crosswalks, and additional
greenery along Segments A and C.
Outreach Round 2
During the second round of outreach, staff solicited feedback on proposed alternatives for Miramonte Avenue Segment A, including the typical cross -sections, bicycle facilities, proposed travel lane reduction, and parking removal proposal. Staff gathered feedback through an online survey and by hosting pop -up events at McKelvy Park, Graham Middle School, and Bubb Elementary School.
Survey
The survey received over 500 responses . S taff engaged with approximately 60 parents and students during the pop -up events to gather their feedback and answer questions about the project. The feedback from the survey includes:
• Preferred Plan:
o 60% of respondents support the proposed plan.
Figure 5: Miramonte Avenue Community Bike Ride
Miramonte Avenue Complete Streets Study, Project 23-31 – Final Report Street Reconstruction (Miramonte Avenue), Project 25-28 – Professional Services Agreement January 27, 2026
o Of those who did not support the plan, 35% preferred preserving a travel lane and 17% preferred retaining all existing on-street parking. • Parking Proposal:
o 65% supported the removal of the proposed amount or more on-street parking. o 29% of the overall survey ed, including 25% of resident respondents, did not support any on-street parking removal.
o 6% supported some on-street parking removal.
• Additional Treatments Suggested:
o New and improved pedestrian crossings.
o Traffic calming measures to reduce vehicle speeds (e.g., curb extensions). o Increased street trees and landscaping.
o Improved street lighting.
Pop ups
McKelvey Ballpark Little League Game: On July 7, 2025, staff hosted a pop- up event during a Little League game at
McKelvey Park to gather feedback on the proposed removal of parking and the overall concept plan. Staff received feedback from 30 event attendees, who primarily expressed the need for safer street conditions for walkers, bikers, and drivers accessing Miramonte Avenue. The feedback also
included support for both parking removal and travel lane reduction to implement a Class IV protected bikeway.
In August, staff attended back -to-school events at Bubb Elementary School, Graham Middle School, and the
Mountain View Whisman School District Orientation (Figure 6). At the pop-ups, staff received positive feedback for the preferred alternative as well as requests for
additional curb extensions, additional crosswalks, and
mid-block crossings within the study area.
Most outreach feedback received by staff supports the proposed parking removal and overall concept plan. Staff incorporated public feedback into the preferred alternative. During outreach, community members also requested additional traffic calming measures and greening elements.
Bicycle and Pedestrian Advisory Committee (BPAC)
On December 12, 2024, BPAC received an update on Miramonte Avenue Complete Streets Study (23-31) for Segments A and C. The BPAC reviewed and provided feedback on existing conditions, Figure 6: Miramonte Pop-up at Mountain
View Whisman School District Orientation
Miramonte Avenue Complete Streets Study, Project 23-31 – Final Report Street Reconstruction (Miramonte Avenue), Project 25-28 – Professional Services Agreement January 27, 2026
findings, and outreach round 1 summary. At this meeting, BPAC supported the road diet, traffic calming through reduced vehicle speeds, protected bikeways, and repairs to broken sidewalks.
BPAC members recommended incorporating additional green elements, su ch as more trees to buffer sidewalks and maximizing green space in Segment C along Permanente Creek on Segment C.
On August 27, 2025, BPAC reviewed and recommended the draft preferred plan to the Council Transportation Committee. Along with the recommendation, BPAC also provided additional feedback:
1. Explore switching the on- street parking on Miramonte Avenue near McKelvy ballpark to loading zones and converting the McKelvey Park cul de sac area loading zone to parking.
2. Consider installing an additional midblock crossing at Miramonte Avenue and W. Park Drive.
3. Evaluate the potential for adding a driveway at the maintenance road directly below the ballpark.
4. Assess conditions for northbound cyclists on Miramonte Avenue turning left onto Park Drive.
5. Consider installing a bi -directional bike lane from Miramonte Avenue and the maintenance alleyway to Miramonte Avenue and E. Park Drive.
6. Review guidance for marked and unmarked crosswalks on southbound Miramonte Avenue.
7. Explore implementing No Turn on Red (NTOR) restrictions at Sonia Way/Miramonte Avenue for all approaches.
8. Explore opportunities to shorten turn radii where feasible to slow vehicles when crossing the bike lane.
9. Explore options to shorten and improve the merge/transition between Segments A and B.
Study staff met with the Public Works Capital Project and Traffic teams to discuss and identify next steps. Staff have included BPAC’s feedback (#3) and added the maintenance driveway in the plan. The design team will continue to evaluate BPAC’s feedback and incorporate it where feasible, based on the project scope, budget, and technical analysis.
Council Transportation Committee (CTC)
On September 2, 2025, CTC reviewed and recommended the preferred concept plan for Miramonte Avenue from El Camino Real to Castro Street/Marilyn Street (Segment A) to City Council with added feedback including:
1. Identify next steps to include BPAC feedback into the preferred plan and design
2. Assess areas to identify shade deserts and recommend tree locations
3. Provide high-level cost estimates for greening and tree implementation in the study area Miramonte Avenue Complete Streets Study, Project 23-31 – Final Report Street Reconstruction (Miramonte Avenue), Project 25-28 – Professional Services Agreement January 27, 2026
Staff incorporated CTC feedback for greenery and provided recommended greening locations in the preferred alternative which is included in the final report (Attachment 1). The planning-level cost estimate to implement and maintain trees within raised medians is $ 500,000. The design team will update this planning-level cost estimate during the project design phase.
Alternative Concept Plans
The study scope and final report include both long -term and resurfacing concept plans for Miramonte Avenue, from El Camino Real to Castro Street/Marilyn Street (Segment A). The long- term concept envisions a redesigned roadway that may include Class IV protected bikeways, green street elements, and pedestrian improvements. Based on Council priorities and upcoming Active Transportation Plan projects, staff will pursue future funding opportunities to further develop the long-term concept and identify next steps in the coming years.
The resurfacing concept plan option aligns with t he current repaving project scope, which is limited to maintenance activities (paving and striping) and does not include significant curb modifications. The resurfacing concept includes a new Class IV bikeway , enhanced pedestrian crossings, and other striping changes that can be implemented as part of the repaving project (Project 25-28) scheduled for 2026.
The final report also includes Segment C of Miramonte Avenue, from Cuesta Drive to the southern City boundary with Los Altos. Since Segment C is not scheduled for repaving and does not have an active Capital Improvement Program (CIP) project or other identified funding sources, staff is prioritizing the design and construction of Segment A (Project 25-28) when street repaving is scheduled in 2026. As part of this Study, staff have developed a bicycle and pedestrian improvement toolbox that includes roundabouts, Class IV bikeways, and green street elements for Segment C. This toolbox will be refined and presented to BPAC and the community for feedback once staff have identified funding. For this Study, the preferred alternative concept plan includes only Segment A.
Preferred Concept Plan
Staff refined the Segment A resurfacing concept into a preferred alternative plan for Miramonte Avenue from El Camino Real to Castro Street/Marilyn Street (Segment A). The preferred concept plan is based on data collection, technical analysis, and BPAC, CTC and community feedback. For the Study, the consultant gathered data on traffic volumes, bicycle and pedestrian counts, vehicle speeds, traffic collisions, and parking utilization. The collected Study data is included in the final report (Attachment 1). In parallel, as previously described, staff conducted two rounds of robust public outreach to seek feedback on various aspects of the Study , including proposed parking removal, travel lane reduction and the overall concept plan. The findings from th e technical Miramonte Avenue Complete Streets Study, Project 23-31 – Final Report Street Reconstruction (Miramonte Avenue), Project 25-28 – Professional Services Agreement January 27, 2026
analysis and public input were incorporated into the development of the concept plan and the final report (Attachment 1).
Along with the stripping changes, all ADA curb ramps will be included within the project scope where required to meet State and local regulations and guidelines. The estimated project cost, including design and construction, is $4. 5 million. The preferred concept plan includes the reservation of future areas for additional green street elements that could be implemented at a later time.
Segment A: Preferred Concept Plan Overview
The concept plan for Segment A includes safety features such as Class IV bikeways, high-visibility crosswalks, a mid-block crossing, and dashed green (conflict zone) markings across intersections.
These safety features are implemented by removing one trave l lane in each direction on Miramonte Avenue and eliminating parking in areas with minimal parking demand.
Road-Diet Analysis
To improve safety and implement a consistent roadway design along Miramonte Avenue, staff recommend a road diet for Segment A, similar to what is to be constructed for Segment B.
Currently, Segment A consists of two vehicle travel lanes in each direction, with a curb -to-curb width ranging from 55 to 75 feet. The existing condition for this section includes “No Parking” signage and lacks bike lanes on the northbound side.
Based on data collection and technical analysis, staff determined that a road diet—reducing from two vehicle travel lanes in each direction to on e is feasible based on observed Average Daily Traffic volumes and turning counts. For more information on traffic analysis, see the final report (Attachment 1). The reclaimed roadway space would be repurposed to install Class IV protected bikeways along the entire segment for both northbound and southbound directions, as shown in Figure 7, which will improve safety and accessibility along the corridor.

Figure 7: Examples of Class IV Protected Bikeways
Parking Removal Analysis
Currently, on-street parking is available along Segment A as shown in Figure 8. As part of the concept plan analysis, staff collected parking utilization data and conducted a walk audit to
Miramonte Avenue Complete Streets Study, Project 23-31 – Final Report Street Reconstruction (Miramonte Avenue), Project 25-28 – Professional Services Agreement January 27, 2026
estimate parking utilization along Segment A. See Attachment 1 for more information.
Figure 8: Existing Parking Spaces
Based on the parking analysis, staff recommends removing the on-street parking shown in Figure
9. Staff distributed flyers on parked cars and sent postcards to residents along the corridor to notify them of the proposed parking removal. The parking data indicate consistent parking
Miramonte Avenue Complete Streets Study, Project 23-31 – Final Report Street Reconstruction (Miramonte Avenue), Project 25-28 – Professional Services Agreement January 27, 2026
demand near the commercial area north of the Miramonte Avenue and Castro Street/Marilyn Drive intersection, as well as near duplexes and multifamily housing south of the El Camino Real and Miramonte Avenue intersection. Therefore, staff recommends keeping parking spaces at these locations.
The roadway space made available by the road diet and parking removal will be used for a barrier- and parking-protected bikeway, providing separation between vehicles and bicyclists to reduce conflict points, including the risk of “dooring.” In 2017, the City implemented a similar design on Castro Street near Graham Middle School, and collisions decreased, as documented in the Council-adopted Vision Zero Action Plan. This reduction in collisions is consistent with the Federal Highway Administration’s proven countermeasure toolbox for protected bikeways. 1 The buffer
space may also be used in the future to implement green streets elements, such as landscaping or bioswales.

Professional Design Services Agreement
In November 2023, staff issued a Request for Qualifications to establish a list of on- call general civil engineering firms to provide design services for future roadway and transportation projects.
Eleven (11) proposals were received. A selection committee comprised of Public Works staff evaluated the proposals and reviewed their qualifications. The committee identified a prequalified list of 10 consulting firms. As the need arises, staff can solicit proposals from one or more of the prequalified consultants, rotating through firms for various projects.
On May 23, 2025, the City issued a Request for Proposal (RFP) to four firms from the prequalified list for professional design and construction support services and received two proposals. A selection committee evaluated the proposals and reviewed the firm s’ understanding of the project. The committee selected CSG Consultants, Inc. (CSG), as the most qualified firm based on the merits of their written proposal, experience in completing similar projects, and understanding of the project goals.
In October 2025, the City Manager authorized staff to execute a professional services agreement with CSG for a portion of CSG’s proposed services, including project management and preliminary design (surveying and soil investigation) in the amount of $122,868 for basic services, and a contingency of $24,132 for a total not-to-exceed amount of $147,000. This allowed CSG to advance preliminary work while staff awaited the Study to be finalized and approved by Council.
The amendment scope for Council’s approval in this agenda item includes:
• Perform design analysis;
• Prepare construction bid documents;
• Assist with Caltrans encroachment permit application; and • Provide bidding and construction support.
The recommended fee for these additional services is $403,000. This fee is consistent for such services, and staff considers the fee to be fair and reasonable for the scope of work required.
Should Council approve the Study, staff recommends Council authorize amending the professional services agreement with CSG to add $403,000, for a new agreement amount not to exceed $550,000, inclusive of basic and additional services.
NEXT STEPS
If the Council approves the Miramonte Avenue Complete Streets - Final Report, the design team will use the Council- approved recommendations to begin design work for the repaving project on Miramonte Avenue, from El Camino Real to Castro Street/Marilyn Street, Segment A (23-31).
Design is estimated to be completed in fall 2026 and construction would begin in early 2027.
Miramonte Avenue Complete Streets Study, Project 23-31 – Final Report Street Reconstruction (Miramonte Avenue), Project 25-28 – Professional Services Agreement January 27, 2026
Based on Council priorities and upcoming Active Transportation Plan projects, staff will pursue future funding opportunities to further develop the long-term concept for Segments A and C and identify next steps in the coming years.
FISCAL IMPACT
Miramonte Avenue Complete Streets Study, Project 23 -31, is funded with $900,000 from the 2016 Measure B Sales Tax Fund, $160,000 from the VTA 2016 Measure B Bicycle and Pedestrian Program, and $145,000 from the Transportation Reserve Fund, for a total project budget of $1,205,000. There is no fiscal impact associated with the adoption of the Miramonte Avenue Complete Streets - Final Report.
The design team will prepare a detailed cost estimate as part of the repaving project and will return to Council with the updated cost estimate for Project 25 -28. Street Reconstruction (Miramonte Avenue), Project 25-28, is funded with $250,000 from the Construction/Conveyance Tax Fund and $750,000 from the 2016 Measure B Sales Tax Fund, for a total project budget of $1,000,000. The professional services agreement fee, with the inclusion of the recommended amendment, is $489,553 for basic services and reimbursable expenses and a contingency of $60,447 for additional services, for a total not-to-exceed amount of $550,000. Project 25-28 has sufficient funds for the recommended action, and no additional appropriation is requested at this time for the design of the project.
Staff will return to Council at a future meeting with a recommendation to appropriate additional funding for the construction phase. The additions to the project scope received from BPAC and CTC, such as the addition of a new midblock crossing and green street elements in the medians, will necessitate additional funding beyond what is already projected.

The Miramonte Avenue Complete Streets – Final Report aligns with the Council’s Vision Zero Policy, which seeks to eliminate fatal traffic crashes in Mountain View by 2030 and enhance bicycle and pedestrian safety along Miramonte Avenue, from El Camino Real to Castro Street/Marilyn Street, Segment A ( Project 23-31). Staff developed the final report through technical analysis and incorporated feedback from the CTC, BPAC, stakeholders, and community members. The preferred plan features Class IV barrier- and pa rking-protected bikeways, additional crosswalks with a Rectangular Rapid Flashing Beacon (RRFB), and potential locations for new trees. Preliminary design has begun, and a design services amendment with CSG is recommended to proceed with the full design consistent with the Study. Design is estimated to be completed in fall 2026 and construction would begin in early 2027.
