WHEREAS, in compliance with Section 3(C) of Measure U, Exhibit A reflects the results of the investigation conducted by the City Ad ministrator of the projects and programs proposed for funding with the Measure U Bonds (the “ Measure U Projects”), and identifies how the

2 Measure U Projects address improvements to the City’s existing core capital assets, maintain or decrease the City’s existing operations and maintenance costs, and address social and geographic equity and provide greater benefit to under-served populations and geographic areas of the greatest need; and

WHEREAS, in addition to the descriptions and results in Exhibit A, the City performed an extensive analysis of the manner in which th e Measure U Projects described in that exhibit address improvements to the City’s existing core cap ital assets, maintain or decrease the City’s existing operations and maintenance costs, and address social and geographic equity and provide greater benefit to under-served populations and geographic areas of the greatest need as part of the Capital Improvement Program Prioritization Pro cess adopted pursuant to Resolution No. 87376 C.M.S., and such analysis contributed and was critical to the previous approval of those projects and programs and for their proposed inclusion in this Resolution; and

FURTHER RESOLVED: That the City Council hereby identifies the Measure U Projects as set forth in Exhibit A as projects and programs to be included in the issuance of the Measure U Bonds and, as set forth in Exhibit A, how said Measure U Projects 1) address improvements to the City’s existing core capital assets, 2) maintain or decrease the City’s existing operations and maintenance costs, and 3) address social and ge ographic equity and provide greater benefit to under-served populations and geographic areas of the greatest need; and be it

FURTHER RESOLVED: If any Measure U Projects set forth in Exhibit A are unable to proceed or if surplus funds remain after the M easure U Projects set forth in Exhibit A are completed, the City Administrator is authorized to allocate funding to projects or programs eligible for Measure U funding as set forth in Exhibit B, a list of alternative projects and programs that received the highest scores a ccording to the City’s Capital Improvement Program Prioritization Process adopted pursuant to Resolution No. 87376 C.M.S. (the “Alternative Measure U Projects”), and may, upon complying with the requiremen ts of Section 3(C) of Measure U and any other applicable law, make such Alternative Measure U Projects eligible for funding from the issuance of the Measure U Bonds; and be it

FURTHER RESOLVED: That the City Administrator may adjust the Measure U funding allocations described within Exhibit A and Exhibit B as between each individual exhibit and may transfer funding allocations between exhibits, to meet demand, to meet community needs, to timely

3 expend funds, to cover the cost of issuance of the Measure U Bonds, and to allocate Measure U Bond proceeds to cover appropriate staff costs; and be it

Citywide Street Resurfacing 50,500,000 Transportation The City's Paving Plan dedicates the majority of
funding to local streets,
prioritizing paving
locations with equal
weight to equity and
street condition. Poor
pavement condition
disproportionately
impacts high priority
populations in regard to
mobility, safety, and
economic security. For
example, the costs of
damage to
vehicles/bicycles due to
potholes has a greater
impact on people with
low to no incomes.

Potholes also pose a
greater safety risk to
bicyclists and
pedestrians.

Pavement useful life is
tracked according to the
Pavement Condition
Index (PCI) standard.

Investing in paving
improves PCI and
prevents further
d
eterioration and
potential damage to
vehicles from potholes
Reduction. Repaving
streets reduces ongoing
costs for short-term
maintenance (i.e. filling
potholes).

Toolbox.

Complete Streets
Capital projects typically
upgrade and/or replace
existing city
infrastructure, including
traffic signals,
curb
ramps, sidewalks, and
roadway surfaces, thus
extending the useful life
of existing assets and
improving overall
mobility of the
transportation system
Complete Street
improvements include a
mixture of new
pedestrian, bicycle,
traffic safety
infrastruc
ture, and
greening or other street
amenities, as well as
upgrades to existing
facilities. While new
infrastructure may
increase maintenance
costs, extending the
useful life of existing
assets can decrease
maintenance costs.

Curb Ramps Program 9,500,000 Transportation Bringing City sidewalks/curb ramps
up to current ADA
standards increases
safety and accessibility,
especially for people
with disabilities.

Curb ramp
reconstruction and the
addition of new curb
ramps improves the
walking and roll
ing
environment for people
using the City's
transportation system.

Neutral. No additional
operating impacts
identified at this time.

This program brings City
curb ramps up to current
ADA standards.

Emergency Roadway
Reconstruction
3,000,000 Transportation Emergency roadway
reconstruction helps to
minimize severe
weather impacts for all
Oaklanders, especially
priority communities
which are more
vulnerable to the
negative impacts of
collapsed roadways,
sinkhole rehabilitation,
and landslides.

This program will extend
the useful life of
roadways by
reconstructing collapsed
roadways and
constructing retaining
walls.

Minimal impacts.

Emergency roadway
reconstruction may
reduce future
maintenance costs.

A-6

Traffic Signal Capital Program 1,500,000 Transportation Traffic signal management projects
can enhance safety and
mobility in priority
neighborhoods when
delivered according to
Oakland's CIP
prioritization process.

This program funds
various safety, access
and mobility projects
connected to traffic
signals, including signal
operations, upgrades
and modernization, as
well as planning and
development of traffic
capital projects and
intelligent transportation
systems. These projects
extend the useful life of
the city's transportation
assets and the overall
functioning of the city's
transportation system.

Minimal impacts
identified at this time.

Typical improvements
within this program
include traffic signal
upgrades and
modernization, which
may lead to a minimal
increase in
operations/maintenance
costs.
