PERFORMANCE MEASURES
Performance Measures are metrics that collect information about operational activities, achievement of goals, community conditions, or other environmental factors to better understand present conditions and inform operational, managerial, policy, and community decisions. Performance Measures are composed of Service Output Measures, which describe a specific service measurement and the numerical value of that service on an annualized basis; and Equitable Service Delivery Success Standards, which describe the “gold standard” target service level for every customer/area of the City, including those who have been historically underserved, and is sometimes expressed as a percentage of the service delivery meeting a specific threshold. Service Levels are designated parameters of City operations, such as weekly facility hours, standard response times for emergency services, and standard response times for requests through OAK311.
Performance measures should identify, track, and improve access to City services for Oakland residents with a goal of continuous improvement in equitable outcomes over time through data collection and analysis. The annualized measurement provided against the Equitable Service Delivery Success Standard will be used to analyze and address areas needing improvement, including racial disparities, for equity purposes. The initial metrics chosen have a particular focus on assuring equitable service delivery to Oakland’s Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) residents, and selected for their potential to advance systemic change and close racial disparities in policy outcomes.

SERVICE IMPACTS & EQUITY CONSIDERATIONS
Restorations
This proposal restores support, service and impact of Library branch services by adding the following: 1.0 FTE Librarian II, 0.60 FTE Librarian II, PPT, 0.60 FTE Library Aide, PPT, and unfreeze 1.0 FTE Project Manager. Additionally, this proposal restores $150,000 to the materials (O&M) budget. These restorations support the continued growth of the branch services department to 17 locations with the addition of a new Hoover Branch Library. Restoring funding for materials addresses increased demand for e- materials, supports development of the Hoover Branch collection, and ensures staffing capacity to facilitate expanded selections and services.
Equity Consideration: The Hoover Foster neighborhood once had a library established in 1887. Throughout its history, the library was repeatedly targeted for closure due to racially motivated systemic disinvestment and institutional redlining. Following the construction of Interstate 980 in the 1970s, which condemned homes, businesses, churches and trees for demolition, the North Oakland Branch permanently closed in 1981. Restoring library services after forty-five years will rectify some harm caused to this historically redlined neighborhood and be a source of empowerment, pride and connection to the community while providing equitable access to technology and information, as well as a beautiful and safe place to gather.
1. Add $721,313 to support a one-year Library Safety Pilot at the Main Library and Martin Luther King Jr. Branch. The proposed restoration would provide safety practitioners to support restroom monitoring, de-escalation, and roving engagement in public areas. This pilot is intended to help restore safe, welcoming, and accessible library environments in response to increased behavioral and safety incidents across OPL facilities.
Equity Consideration: This restoration supports equitable access to public library spaces by helping restore safer and more stable environments for patrons, staff, youth, seniors, and vulnerable community members who rely on library services.

PERFORMANCE MEASURES
Performance Measures are metrics that collect information about operational activities, achievement of goals, community conditions, or other environmental factors to better understand present conditions and inform operational, managerial, policy, and community decisions. Performance Measures are composed of Service Output Measures, which describe a specific service measurement and the numerical value of that service on an annualized basis; and Equitable Service Delivery Success Standards, which describe the “gold standard” target service level for every customer/area of the City, including those who have been historically underserved, and is sometimes expressed as a percentage of the service delivery meeting a specific threshold. Service Levels are designated parameters of City operations, such as weekly facility hours, standard response times for emergency services, and standard response times for requests through OAK311.
Performance measures should identify, track, and improve access to City services for Oakland residents with a goal of continuous improvement in equitable outcomes over time through data collection and analysis. The annualized measurement provided against the Equitable Service Delivery Success Standard will be used to analyze and address areas needing improvement, including racial disparities, for equity purposes. The initial metrics chosen have a particular focus on assuring equitable service delivery to Oakland’s Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) residents, and selected for their potential to advance systemic change and close racial disparities in policy outcomes.

SERVICE IMPACTS & EQUITY CONSIDERATIONS
Restorations
Reductions
Restore 1.0 FTE Management Assistant position to support annual part-time hiring and contracts.
Equity Consideration: Restoring the Management Assistant position will strengthen administrative capacity to support timely hiring, onboarding, and contract management, which are critical to sustaining consistent recreation services across Oakland. Restoring this position will help reduce delays in staffing and program implementation and support more stable service delivery in high-priority equity index neighborhoods where communities are most reliant on City programs. This restoration advances equity by improving workforce efficiency, reducing service disruptions, and restoring more reliable access to youth, wellness, and community- based services for historically underserved populations.
1. Restores alignment of staffing levels by deleting 0.6 FTE vacant Stagehand, PT position. This action reflects current operational needs and existing programming levels that no longer require dedicated stagehand support.
Equity Consideration: This reduction is expected to have a minimal equity impact as the position has remained vacant and current service delivery models have continued through adjustments and existing staff capacity. This action restores staffing alignment with current program demand while maintaining continuity of existing services.
1. Restores staffing alignment by deleting 0.8 FTE vacant Student Trainee, PT position.
Equity Consideration: The proposed reduction is expected to have a low equity impact because the position has remained vacant and unused in previous budget cycles, resulting in no immediate reduction to current service levels.
2. Restores operational efficiencies through the deletion of $206,646 in periodical subscription funding within Operations and Maintenance for services that are no longer operationally necessary.
Equity Consideration: The proposed reduction is expected to have a low to moderate equity impact. The subscription service is no longer operationally necessary.

PERFORMANCE MEASURES
Performance Measures are metrics that collect information about operational activities, achievement of goals, community conditions, or other environmental factors to better understand present conditions and inform operational, managerial, policy, and community decisions. Performance Measures are composed of Service Output Measures, which describe a specific service measurement and the numerical value of that service on an annualized basis; and Equitable Service Delivery Success Standards, which describe the “gold standard” target service level for every customer/area of the City, including those who have been historically underserved, and is sometimes expressed as a percentage of the service delivery meeting a specific threshold. Service Levels are designated parameters of City operations, such as weekly facility hours, standard response times for emergency services, and standard response times for requests through OAK311.
Performance measures should identify, track, and improve access to City services for Oakland residents with a goal of continuous improvement in equitable outcomes over time through data collection and analysis. The annualized measurement provided against the Equitable Service Delivery Success Standard will be used to analyze and address areas needing improvement, including racial disparities, for equity purposes. The initial metrics chosen have a particular focus on assuring equitable service delivery to Oakland’s Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) residents, and selected for their potential to advance systemic change and close racial disparities in policy outcomes.

SERVICE IMPACTS & EQUITY CONSIDERATIONS
Restorations
Reductions
Restores full-time operating hours, four days a week, for the City’s senior centers and reopens the West Oakland Senior Center through the restoration of 1.0 FTE Administrative Assistant IIs and 1.51 FTE Custodians.
Equity Consideration: There are an estimated 60,000 Oakland residents who are over the age of 65. The programs and services provided by the City focus on ensuring fair and equal access to resources and opportunities for older individuals, particularly within the context of housing, healthcare, financial security, and independence.
1. Restores positions and services provided by the Aging & Adult Services division by the addition of 1.0 FTE Administrative Assistant II, 1.0 FTE Office Assistant II, and 1.0 FTE Supervising Case Manager, offset by the deletion of 5.0 FTE Senior Aides (PT), 2.0 FTE Recreation Specialists, and 1.0 FTE Administrative Analyst II positions.
Equity Consideration: There are an estimated 60,000 Oakland residents who are over the age of 65. The programs and services provided by the City focus on ensuring fair and equal access to resources and opportunities for older individuals, particularly within the context of housing, healthcare, financial security, and independence.
2. Reduces $1.4 Million in FY2026-27 in O&M funding for the Kids First allocation based on a decrease in General Purpose Fund unrestricted revenues per the City Charter.
The Kids First program contracts with community organizations to provide services to children.
Equity Consideration: This decrease impacts vulnerable children in Oakland's BIPOC low-income communities. Oakland Kids First works with 125 core youth leaders and 3,400 additional high school students each year across programs. Kids First programs advance safe and caring school cultures, support youth to advocate for their needs and priorities, and improve educational equity, racial justice, and academic outcomes for low-income students of color.

PERFORMANCE MEASURES
Performance Measures are metrics that collect information about operational activities, achievement of goals, community conditions, or other environmental factors to better understand present conditions and inform operational, managerial, policy, and community decisions. Performance Measures are composed of Service Output Measures, which describe a specific service measurement and the numerical value of that service on an annualized basis; and Equitable Service Delivery Success Standards, which describe the “gold standard” target service level for every customer/area of the City, including those who have been historically underserved, and is sometimes expressed as a percentage of the service delivery meeting a specific threshold. Service Levels are designated parameters of City operations, such as weekly facility hours, standard response times for emergency services, and standard response times for requests through OAK311.
Performance measures should identify, track, and improve access to City services for Oakland residents with a goal of continuous improvement in equitable outcomes over time through data collection and analysis. The annualized measurement provided against the Equitable Service Delivery Success Standard will be used to analyze and address areas needing improvement, including racial disparities, for equity purposes. The initial metrics chosen have a particular focus on assuring equitable service delivery to Oakland’s Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) residents, and selected for their potential to advance systemic change and close racial disparities in policy outcomes.

BUREAUS/DIVISIONS
Administration
Administration provides overall management and administration and fiscal support to all Human Services Department (HSD) Divisions. Administration includes liaison with elected official, legislative advocacy, fund development, intergovernmental relations, supporting multi-agency initiatives, policy development, and departmental communications, human resources and payroll support. Fiscal management includes budgeting, audits, grants monitoring and accounting. Administration also manages a Substance Abuse and Mental Health five-year initiative to create community resilience, support the department’s transformation into a trauma informed system of care, and program policy and services that are trauma informed and crafted to speak to and address racial equity.
Aging & Adult Services
Provide a comprehensive and coordinated network of support services, information and referrals, and activities for seniors and persons with disabilities. Programs include: The Multi-Purpose Senior Services Program (MSSP) which supports frail seniors and persons with disabilities to remain independent; Senior Companion and Foster
Grandparent (SC/FG) Programs which offer volunteer opportunities for seniors to work with frail-elderly and at-risk children; and the ASSETS program which provides low-
income seniors with employment training services and job placement.
Oakland Paratransit for the Elderly and Disabled (OPED) provides paratransit services which augment the County’s paratransit program. OPED is funded by Alameda County Measure B Transportation Initiative and is augmented by Measure BB. Additionally, City-sponsored Senior Centers offer culturally appropriate and accessible social, nutrition, education and wellness programming for seniors throughout the City. Senior Centers have extended their reach to members by offering online and televised classes to create Senior Centers Without Walls. Technology education, equipment lending, and a contactless registration system are addressing evolving senior needs for communication and other resources. Rental of City-owned senior facilities generate revenue to support senior activities. The Mayor’s Commission on Aging provides advocacy and policy direction on senior issues and promotes Oakland as an Age Friendly City under the World Health Organization’s international initiative.
Alameda County-Oakland Community Action Partnership
Alameda County-Oakland Community Action Partnership (AC-OCAP) manages the City’s and Alameda County’s Community Services Block Grant funds which are dedicated to ending poverty within the City of Oakland and throughout Alameda County. AC-OCAP’s mission is to improve the community by creating pathways that lead to economic empowerment and prosperity. Initiatives include hunger relief, employment strategies, housing advocacy, low-income banking efforts, and free tax preparation and promotion of the Earned Income Tax Credit.
Children & Youth Services
The Oakland Fund for Children & Youth (OFCY) fosters the development of young people ages 0 to 20 by providing grant funds for services and programs that improve outcomes for children and youth. The Planning and Oversight Committee provides policy recommendations to the City Council and oversees strategic planning, evaluation and grant- making through a competitive proposal process. A City Charter amendment (1996 Measure K – Kids First! voter initiative) established OFCY as a mandated set aside of funds, later amended by Measures OO and D, resulting in a 3% set aside of the City’s unrestricted general fund revenues for children's programs. Legislation requires completion of an OFCY Strategic Plan every four years and a comprehensive evaluation of OFCY annually. Programs strategies include comprehensive afterschool, youth transitions, and early childhood development. The Division also manages the Oakland Youth Commission which gives youth the opportunity to build leadership skills and participate in civic activities. The Summer Food Service program delivers free, healthy nutritious lunches to low-income school-aged children in Oakland neighborhoods and community sites including libraries and recreation centers during the summer months. The Sugar Sweetened Beverage (SSB) Distribution Tax program and its Advisory Board is also supported by this Division. SSB includes public health messaging, community grants, and investments in healthy living and community nutrition to prevent or reduce the adverse health outcomes of the consumption of sugar sweetened beverages.
Community Housing Services
Providing critical services for Oakland’s most vulnerable individuals and families including those who are very low income, experiencing homelessness, are HIV/ AIDS positive and/or food insecure. Community Housing Services provides a range of housing support including shelter, transitional housing, service enriched interim housing models, rapid re-housing, and permanent supportive housing. Services also include interventions for individuals living on the streets through emergency health and hygiene interventions, interim shelter solutions, outreach, case management and housing navigation. The updated Permanent Access To Housing (PATH) Plan provides guiding principles to support the balanced investments in the full spectrum of homeless services, from basic harm reduction to permanent supportive housing.
This work includes recent emergency allocations from the State of California (Homeless Emergency Aid Program or HEAP) to address the crisis of unsheltered neighbors. The Division is also the lead for Oakland in the County’s Coordinated Entry System of Housing Resource Centers for those who are unhoused. Through its brown bag food program, low-income individuals in all parts of Oakland are provided with essential supplemental meals. The Division also supports the Mayor’s Annual Thanksgiving Dinner.
Early Childhood & Family Services
The
City of Oakland Head Start Program provides care and education, comprehensive support, and family services to over 1,006 low-income families. Children who are 0-5 years of age can attend the program either at centers or in their own home. Head Start also serves pregnant mothers and prioritizes young, first time mothers and Black, Indigenous, and people of color (BIPOC) women. We partner with parents to develop learning and growth plans for each child to ensure healthy development and to prepare 506
them for success in Pre-K and Kindergarten. The comprehensive services we provide support the growth and development of children and pregnant mothers by addressing developmental learning, mental health and disabilities, physical health, nutrition and family needs.
The program provides directs services to families at thirteen centers located in the most underserved areas of Oakland. We also offer virtual learning and homebased programs.
In addition to direct services, we manage grants to three partner organizations: Brighter Beginnings, St Vincent’s Day Home, and Laney Community College and one delegate agency, The Unity Council, to serve additional families across Oakland. We ensure that our partners and delegate agency meet quality standards for service delivery and the federal requirements of Head Start and City of Oakland priorities.
Head Start is a US Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) program. The HHS Poverty Guidelines determine income eligibility for participation in Head Start and Early Head Start programs. Unhoused foster children and families who receive TANF (temporary assistance to needy families) funds are automatically eligible.
The City of Oakland program is governed by a Policy Council, comprised of parents as well as an Advisory Board, made up of Oakland leaders focused on Early Childhood Development, with decision making authority that contributes to policy and program guidelines and ensures the implementation and achievement of federal requirements.

Oakland’s Human Services Department provides services to promote equity and resilience for Oakland residents, many of whom are low income and/or experiencing a life crisis such as homelessness.
Some of the work we accomplished In FY 21-22 included:
4 Senior Centers provided case management services, social activities, and food distribution to over 3,200 Seniors.
Information and Assistance programs for seniors provided information, referral and follow up services to support more than 4,000 vulnerable Oakland seniors during the pandemic.
AC-OCAP funding allowed for 17,680 individuals to receive food assistance. 4,560 Oakland low-wage earners received free tax preparation services through AC-OCAP’s signature.
Earned Income Tax Credit (EITC) Campaign resulting in $8,523,000 being returned into the pockets of Oakland’s low-income households.
OFCY Request for Proposal for the FY2022-2025 grant cycle was released in January 2021 and resulted in 149 programs being funded for approximately $19M for FY22-23.
The Head Start program is funded to serve 674 children 0-5 years of age and expectant parents.
MSSP supported more than 500 seniors that assisted with health and daily living activities that enabled them to continue living independent and dignified lives. 2,339 clients were served in homeless & housing programs; 589 in Permanent Housing. 258 AC-OCAP Families Received Transitional Housing/Emergency Shelter and 50 Families Obtained/Maintained Permanent Housing.

SERVICE IMPACTS & EQUITY CONSIDERATIONS
Restorations
Restores 1.0 FTE Registered Veterinary Technician to support the OAS Medical Team in providing needed medical care to the approximately 9,000 animals OAS cares for each year. It will allow OAS to have medical coverage 7 days per week.
Equity Consideration: Adding this position allows OAS to provide needed medical care 7 days per week and expand community clinic work that takes place in Oakland's High Priority Racial Equity Neighborhoods. This means delivering better care to the pets of our most vulnerable residents, including those located at homeless encampments. This will increase animal vaccination rates which reduces the spread of disease and increases access to spay/neuter services which will reduce unwanted litters that are a burden in these communities.
1. Restores 1.0 FTE Animal Control Officer (ACO) which will bring the total to 7.0 FTEs. A staffing study determined OAS should have between 10-12 ACOs and this proposal gets OAS closer to that goal. It will increase ACO field activity, reduce the response time to priority calls, and allow ACOs to perform follow-up investigations more completely to prevent animal cruelty and neglect from continuing.
Equity Consideration: The majority of the 3,886 field calls and 432 additional calls for service that ACOs respond to each year are in zip codes representing Oakland's high priority racial equity neighborhoods. By increasing staffing, these communities will be served more carefully and quickly which will improve public safety outcomes.
2. Restores 1.0 FTE Senior Public Service Representative to allow OAS to open to the public seven days a week (as opposed to the five it is open now). This will also create a promotional opportunity and better leadership structure for the Public Service Representative Staff. Animal Shelters need to be open seven days a week to allow residents access to reunite with lost pets, seek critical services, and reduce the length of stay in the shelter for animals that are impounded. This increases the likelihood that owners and pets will be reunited.
Equity Consideration: The majority of people seeking OAS services are in the 94601, 94605, and 94621 zip codes where Oakland's high priority equity neighborhoods are located. Working families in these communities need a shelter that is open when they are available to come in for help or to find a missing pet. This will make that possible.
3. Restores 1.0 FTE Animal Care Attendant (ACA) to allow OAS to provide the minimum amount of daily care required for the animals in its care and reopen 7 days per week.
ACAs clean the kennels, feed the animals, and perform intake on new arrivals every day at OAS. Best practices state that each animal in care should have a minimum of 15 minutes of attention per day and that is not possible with current staffing levels. Volunteers try to make up the difference but are not always available. Also, to perform intake 7 days per week, an additional ACA is needed, as that service is essential.
Equity Consideration: The majority of animals OAS serves come from Oakland's Equity Neighborhoods, with a significant number coming from homeless encampments. These animals deserve humane treatment.

PERFORMANCE MEASURES
Performance Measures are metrics that collect information about operational activities, achievement of goals, community conditions, or other environmental factors to better understand present conditions and inform operational, managerial, policy, and community decisions. Performance Measures are composed of Service Output Measures, which describe a specific service measurement and the numerical value of that service on an annualized basis; and Equitable Service Delivery Success Standards, which describe the “gold standard” target service level for every customer/area of the City, including those who have been historically underserved, and is sometimes expressed as a percentage of the service delivery meeting a specific threshold. Service Levels are designated parameters of City operations, such as weekly facility hours, standard response times for emergency services, and standard response times for requests through OAK311.
Performance measures should identify, track, and improve access to City services for Oakland residents with a goal of continuous improvement in equitable outcomes over time through data collection and analysis. The annualized measurement provided against the Equitable Service Delivery Success Standard will be used to analyze and address areas needing improvement, including racial disparities, for equity purposes. The initial metrics chosen have a particular focus on assuring equitable service delivery to Oakland’s Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) residents, and selected for their potential to advance systemic change and close racial disparities in policy outcomes.

SERVICE IMPACTS & EQUITY CONSIDERATIONS
Restorations
Other Impacts & Changes
Strengthens the City’s capacity to inspect, investigate, and enforce special activity permit regulations through the support of 3.0 FTE Special Activity Permit Inspector and $100,000 for vehicle equipment. These positions support oversight of regulated activities including, including cannabis businesses, mobile vending, cabarets, and special events.
Equity Consideration: This funding will allow for better distribution and coverage of inspectors across the City. Inspectors focus first on education about the rules, regulations, and the path to compliance. A disproportionate number of unpermitted mobile food vendors are non-white and do not speak English as their primary language, an additional inspector means more resources will be available to help entrepreneurs establish compliant business practices in the City of Oakland.
1. Supports continuity in the management and development of the Oakland Army Base and provides specialized right-of-way services for transportation infrastructure projects through personnel funding to retain temporary service contracted employees. The staffing supports senior-level right-of-way services on an as-needed basis for the delivery of bicycle, pedestrian, bridge and roadway projects.
Equity Consideration: This position would help to ensure that the West Oakland community's interests related to the former Army Base (e.g., with respect to air quality, economic opportunity, and community benefits), as expressed over multiple decades of community engagement, continue to inform the management and development of this area. The Right of Way TCSE will enable delivery of transportation infrastructure projects that are prioritized by the Department of Transportation's equity-based criteria.
2. Restores 1.0 FTE Real Property Asset Manager. This service enhancement provides day-to-day management of real estate transactional staff and oversight of the City's real property portfolio to reduce risk, increase transaction revenue, and increase the rate at which transactions are completed. This will also increase the City's capacity for initiating and delivering complex real estate projects.
Equity Consideration: Unfreezing a Real Property Asset Manager will accelerate the completion of real estate transactions, the majority of which enable community- based partnerships that activate and secure public lands in historically underinvested neighborhoods or provide direct service to marginalized communities (e.g., shelter programs).
3. Restores the Mayor’s Summer Youth Program by adding $200,000 to support the Oakland Workforce Development Board (OWDB), designed to provide free, enriching experiences for Oakland youth.
Equity Consideration: This program partners with local nonprofits to provide work-readiness training, career interest assessments, and paid work experiences for youth ages 16–21, with a focus on Black, Latinx, Native American, and Pacific Islander youth in East Oakland, Fruitvale, and West Oakland.
4. Restores the Film Rebate Program by providing $250,000 in the midcycle budget, this will allow the City of Oakland to provide film rebates to productions filming locally in Oakland.
Equity Consideration: Depending on eligible rebate amounts, a significant portion or all of the allocation could potentially be utilized by a single production. As a result, the limited funding pool may constrain broader access to the program.
5. Converting an Administrative Analyst II position and replacing it with a Program Analyst II position, this will allow the Special Activities team to have someone who can be more focused on the programmatic side of the cannabis grants and programs. There are cost savings in doing this, so while it may come across as a minimal reduction in costs, it should result in more dedicated attention to cannabis grant applications, administration, and reporting, which is something Special Activities has identified as a service gap.

Equity Consideration: By deleting an Administrative Analyst II position and replacing it with a Program Analyst II position, this will allow the Special Activities team to have someone who can be more focused on the programmatic side of the cannabis grants and programs, including the City's cannabis equity program.
Converting the Workforce Board Director classification from the vacant Project Manager III to Deputy Director of Economic Workforce Development, allows the City of Oakland to save at least $38K in WIOA budget and maintain current service levels. The savings may eventually allow for an Administrative Analyst position to be unfrozen, which will be able to provide more of the administrative support that the Division needs in processing payment requests, etc. There is minimal service impact beyond this.
Equity Consideration: There are no identified equity impacts.

PERFORMANCE MEASURES
Performance Measures are metrics that collect information about operational activities, achievement of goals, community conditions, or other environmental factors to better understand present conditions and inform operational, managerial, policy, and community decisions. Performance Measures are composed of Service Output Measures, which describe a specific service measurement and the numerical value of that service on an annualized basis; and Equitable Service Delivery Success Standards, which describe the “gold standard” target service level for every customer/area of the City, including those who have been historically underserved, and is sometimes expressed as a percentage of the service delivery meeting a specific threshold. Service Levels are designated parameters of City operations, such as weekly facility hours, standard response times for emergency services, and standard response times for requests through OAK311.
Performance measures should identify, track, and improve access to City services for Oakland residents with a goal of continuous improvement in equitable outcomes over time through data collection and analysis. The annualized measurement provided against the Equitable Service Delivery Success Standard will be used to analyze and address areas needing improvement, including racial disparities, for equity purposes. The initial metrics chosen have a particular focus on assuring equitable service delivery to Oakland’s Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) residents, and selected for their potential to advance systemic change and close racial disparities in policy outcomes.

Mission Statement
The Housing and Community Development Department (HCD) is dedicated to improving Oakland's neighborhoods and to ensuring all Oaklanders have safe and affordable housing.

SERVICE IMPACTS & EQUITY CONSIDERATIONS
Restorations
Restores HCD’s hearing capacity by an estimated 20%, improve client response times, and support robust community education around tenant-landlord law in Oakland with unfreezing 4.0 FTE positions (1 Hearing Officer, 1 Administrative Analyst II, 2 Administrative Assistants). An Administrative Assistant II position will be frozen, but this will not have an adverse impact due to the broader capacity-building staffing improvements.
Equity Consideration: Unfreezing positions to speed up the Rent Adjustment Program hearing process, improve client engagement, and support proactive community engagement efforts will have positive equity benefits for tenants and landlords alike. Vulnerable tenants who qualify for a rent reduction will receive the reduction they deserve sooner than under the status quo. Conversely, small landlords who urgently need to petition for a rent increase to meet rising costs will access faster timelines to secure the necessary authorization.
1. Invests in affordable housing opportunities by unfreezing 3.0 FTE Housing Development Coordinator positions, who will review funding applications and review funding draw requests, and allocates $1.5 million to fund affordable housing construction and acquisition/rehabilitation projects.
Equity Consideration: Expanding affordable housing opportunities through the new construction of deed-restricted affordable housing will primarily benefit low- income Oaklanders at risk of displacement. This will reduce the impact of the disparate rates at which Black and Latino Oaklanders experience housing-cost burden.
2. Implements the Equitable Lead Hazard Abatement Program with 1.0 FTE Project Manager and 1.0 FTE Community Development Program Coordinator to support other efforts to remediate lead-based paint hazards. This will increase the number of Oakland households that benefit from City-funded lead paint remediation work and will ultimately reduce the number of Oakland youth who experience lead poisoning. This budget also includes $4.4 million in grant funds from the Lead Hazard Reduction Program, which will fund lead-based paint mitigation and healthy homes services for low-income Oakland residents.
3. F Y 2 0 2 6 - 2 7 P R O P O S E D P O L I C Y B U D G E TF Y 2 0 2 6 - 2 7 P R O P O S E D P O L I C Y B U D G E T 529
Other Impacts & Changes
Equity Consideration: The lead remediation efforts supported by these staffing and funding changes are highly targeted towards the census tracts at greatest risk of lead-based paint hazards. These census tracts are primarily occupied by Black and Latino households, who are at disproportionate risk of lead poisoning. These lead remediation efforts will help reduce that disparity by protecting low-income renters and owners from lead paint hazards.
Freezes 1.0 FTE Accountant II and 1.0 FTE Program Analyst III. This will have no service impact due a realignment of duties across several positions.
Equity Consideration: There is no discernible equity impact from this action.

PERFORMANCE MEASURES
Performance Measures are metrics that collect information about operational activities, achievement of goals, community conditions, or other environmental factors to better understand present conditions and inform operational, managerial, policy, and community decisions. Performance Measures are composed of Service Output Measures, which describe a specific service measurement and the numerical value of that service on an annualized basis; and Equitable Service Delivery Success Standards, which describe the “gold standard” target service level for every customer/area of the City, including those who have been historically underserved, and is sometimes expressed as a percentage of the service delivery meeting a specific threshold. Service Levels are designated parameters of City operations, such as weekly facility hours, standard response times for emergency services, and standard response times for requests through OAK311.
Performance measures should identify, track, and improve access to City services for Oakland residents with a goal of continuous improvement in equitable outcomes over time through data collection and analysis. The annualized measurement provided against the Equitable Service Delivery Success Standard will be used to analyze and address areas needing improvement, including racial disparities, for equity purposes. The initial metrics chosen have a particular focus on assuring equitable service delivery to Oakland’s Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) residents, and selected for their potential to advance systemic change and close racial disparities in policy outcomes.

BUREAUS/DIVISIONS
Housing Development Division
Housing Development Services (HDS)
The HDS unit produces affordable units by funding the new construction of housing with long-term affordability restrictions, as well as through the opportunity to move into homeownership. HDS services and activities predominantly benefit extremely low- to moderate income (LMI) residents and areas of Oakland. HDS administers funds through the New Construction
Notice of Funding Availability (NOFAs). These NOFA funds, comprised largely of local bond funds as well as impact fees, former redevelopment “boomerang” funds, the City’s HOME allocation, and various other repayments, are competitively issued and recommendations for new construction and rehabilitation are brought to Council for approval. HDS also runs the city’s first-time homeowner program via the Mortgage Assistance Program (MAP) and Cal HOME loan programs, operating jointly with participating lenders, to assist low and moderate-income first-time homebuyers with the purchase of homes in the City of Oakland.
Housing Preservation Services (HPS)
The HPS unit works to preserve affordable housing through and is a key component of HCD’s anti-displacement strategy. The Acquisition and Conversion to Affordable Housing (ACAH) program allows project sponsors to acquire market rate apartment buildings and convert them to deed restricted affordable housing using a loan from HCD. HPS also includes a Residential Lending Services (RLS) team focused on rehabilitation and improvements primarily for homeowner-occupied properties. RLS offers four programs targeted to income-qualified property owners: Access Improvement Program, Lead-Safe Homes Program, Home Maintenance and Improvement Program and Emergency Home Repair Program.
Homeless Housing Development
The HHD unit focuses on permanent supportive housing for homeless exits through the Homekey program (funded through State HCD) and Oakland’s analog version the Rapid Response Homeless Housing (R2H2) program. The housing funded by these programs must be “quick build” ready to house residents within 12 months of an award and fully operational within 15 months.
Asset Management Services (AMS)
The AMS is responsible for monitoring and enforcing the City’s Regulatory Agreements for the deed restricted affordable housing portfolio. This includes ensuring compliance with required rental restrictions, property condition, and payment of loans among other factors. AMS administers the Health and Safety Rehab Loan Program for multifamily buildings that have emergency repair needs as well as the Preservation Notice of Funding Availability (NOFA), a funding opportunity for existing affordable housing portfolio properties that require major capital improvements.

PERFORMANCE MEASURES
Performance Measures are metrics that collect information about operational activities, achievement of goals, community conditions, or other environmental factors to better understand present conditions and inform operational, managerial, policy, and community decisions. Performance Measures are composed of Service Output Measures, which describe a specific service measurement and the numerical value of that service on an annualized basis; and Equitable Service Delivery Success Standards, which describe the “gold standard” target service level for every customer/area of the City, including those who have been historically underserved, and is sometimes expressed as a percentage of the service delivery meeting a specific threshold. Service Levels are designated parameters of City operations, such as weekly facility hours, standard response times for emergency services, and standard response times for requests through OAK311.
Performance measures should identify, track, and improve access to City services for Oakland residents with a goal of continuous improvement in equitable outcomes over time through data collection and analysis. The annualized measurement provided against the Equitable Service Delivery Success Standard will be used to analyze and address areas needing improvement, including racial disparities, for equity purposes. The initial metrics chosen have a particular focus on assuring equitable service delivery to Oakland’s Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) residents, and selected for their potential to advance systemic change and close racial disparities in policy outcomes.

SERVICE IMPACTS & EQUITY CONSIDERATIONS
Restorations
Strengthens the City’s capacity to support supporting proactive and rapid response illegal dumping removal efforts though $1.1 million in overtime funding focused on hotspot corridors, major arterials, and key thoroughfares throughout the City of Oakland.
Equity Consideration: Illegal Dumping crews are responsible for removing illegally dumped materials from public property, supporting special events, and cleaning homeless encampments on public property and within parks. Illegal dumping disproportionately impacts marginalized, underserved, and minority communities that historically have not received an equitable share of public works resources. These resources help target and expand cleanup efforts in the areas most severely affected by illegal dumping.
1. Restores 1.0 FTE Capital Improvement Project Coordinator. This position manages the planning, coordination, and execution of bond funded capital improvement projects citywide.
Equity Consideration: The duties of this position aid in providing capital improvements in underserved areas and follow the City's CIP Prioritization Model where equity is considered by identifying projects that address social and economic disparities.
2. Restores 1.0 FTE Pool Technician and freezes 0.50 FTE Pool Technician, PPT. These positions are responsible for maintenance at the City's pool facilities.
Equity Consideration: There is no discernible equity impact from this action.
3. Restores 2.0 FTE Heavy Equipment Mechanic in the Sewer Division. These positions will restore the capacity needed to repair trucks and equipment in a timely manner, ensuring that citywide services and emergency response operations remain reliable and uninterrupted.
Equity Consideration: The sanitary sewer system encompasses the entire City and most repairs needed are identified after failure. Underground infrastructure assets fail unexpectedly and unpredictably. However, the older an underground asset is, the greater the chance of failure. It would be reasonable to assume that more recently developed areas will be lesser served by this position.
4. Restores 1.0 FTE Environmental Enforcement Officer. This position is part of the Environmental Enforcement Officer (EEO) Program, which conducts patrols and surveillance to address illegal dumping, blight, and nuisance crimes. The program performs public outreach, issues citations, investigates violations, coordinates with appropriate authorities, and participates in City and community events focused on illegal dumping and blight reduction.
Equity Consideration: This position will support the City’s efforts to reduce illegal dumping in Oakland’s historically disadvantaged communities.
5. Restores 1.0 FTE Watershed Program Supervisor within the Watershed Division of the Bureau of Design & Construction. This position assists with the analysis of municipal stormwater programs and services, as well as stormwater capital improvement projects.
Equity Consideration: There is no discernible equity impact from this action.
6. Appropriates an additional $2.0 million necessary to support the existing security contract in the Facilities Services Division, where prior budget levels have not been sufficient to sustain current operations. The funding support security staffing hours and coverage at facilities citywide to improve safety, deter nuisance activity, and support safer City operations.

Reductions
Restores $730,000 in O&M for Keep Oakland Clean and Beautiful. These funds will restore equipment and service hours dedicated to city beautification efforts, including street sweeping, illegal dumping cleanup, and litter and graffiti removal.
Equity Consideration: Illegal Dumping crews are responsible for removing illegally dumped materials from public property, supporting special events, and cleaning homeless encampments on public property and within parks. Illegal dumping disproportionately impacts marginalized, underserved, and minority communities that historically have not received an equitable share of public works resources. These resources help target and expand cleanup efforts in the areas most severely affected by illegal dumping.
10. Supports a citywide public facilities maintenance assessment through a $500,000 investment to evaluate the condition of City facilities, identify needed repairs, estimate maintenance and capital costs, and prioritize future maintenance needs. The assessment improves planning for deferred maintenance needs and helps extend the useful life of City facilities.
Equity Consideration: Improved understanding of facility conditions may help the City identify disparities in infrastructure needs and support continued access to public facilities relied upon by Oakland residents, employees and community organizations.

PERFORMANCE MEASURES
Performance Measures are metrics that collect information about operational activities, achievement of goals, community conditions, or other environmental factors to better understand present conditions and inform operational, managerial, policy, and community decisions. Performance Measures are composed of Service Output Measures, which describe a specific service measurement and the numerical value of that service on an annualized basis; and Equitable Service Delivery Success Standards, which describe the “gold standard” target service level for every customer/area of the City, including those who have been historically underserved, and is sometimes expressed as a percentage of the service delivery meeting a specific threshold. Service Levels are designated parameters of City operations, such as weekly facility hours, standard response times for emergency services, and standard response times for requests through OAK311.
Performance measures should identify, track, and improve access to City services for Oakland residents with a goal of continuous improvement in equitable outcomes over time through data collection and analysis. The annualized measurement provided against the Equitable Service Delivery Success Standard will be used to analyze and address areas needing improvement, including racial disparities, for equity purposes. The initial metrics chosen have a particular focus on assuring equitable service delivery to Oakland’s Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) residents, and selected for their potential to advance systemic change and close racial disparities in policy outcomes.

570
Communications Division
The Communications Division within Oakland Public Works creates all internal and external communication. They craft the messages that are released to the public regarding upcoming engagement opportunities and project in their area that may require outreach due to disruptions. The division also develops and executes our internal communications strategies to keep OPW employees informed of important information within the department.
Regulatory Compliance
This unit provides planning, intra-departmental coordination, program development and implementation, and regulatory oversight to ensure the City’s compliance with applicable federal, state, and local regulatory requirements pertaining to the City’s sanitary sewer system. It also provides technical consultation and functional direction to Public Works divisions and departments engaged in planning, reporting, and compliance activities, and coordinates and performs internal auditing and compliance investigations of the City’s sewer system.Bureau of Design and Construction The Bureau provides project management, construction management, capital contracts, and design services for the City’s Capital Improvement Program (CIP). The CIP focuses on Capital Improvements to the City’s critical infrastructure in six asset categories, Buildings & Facilities, Parks & Open Space, Transportation, Sanitary Sewers & Wastewater, Storm Drains & Watershed and Technology. The Bureau also support other City Departments (Library, Parks and Recreation, Fire, Police, etc.) as liaisons for the Capital Improvement Program and project implementation. The Bureau also focuses on providing infrastructure engineering and infrastructure management support of stormwater and sewer facilities. The function also ensures regulatory compliance with Federal, State, and Local Agencies for Sewer, Stormwater, and Watershed through reporting and interactions with regulators.
Wastewater Engineering Management Division
The City of Oakland has 934 miles of City-owned and operated sanitary sewer pipes, seven pump stations, and over 28,554 manholes and structures. Most of Oakland’s sewer system is greater than 50 years old. During wet-weather events, sewer flows are significantly increased due to infiltration and inflow (I/I) of storm water into the sanitary sewer system. The Sewer Service Charge that is collected from all properties pays for the operating and capital expenses incurred to maintain the system. The sanitary sewer collection system is a network of pipes, manholes, clean-outs, pump stations, and other structures used to collect residential, commercial, and industrial wastewater, and transport it to the East Bay Municipal Utility (EBMUD) treatment facility. The City of Oakland’s sanitary sewer system is a collection system only. Sewage treatment and disposal occurs at the EBMUD Treatment Facility near the Bay Bridge and two other facilities; Oakport Wet-Weather Facility and San Antonio Creek Wet-Weather Facility.
Watershed & Stormwater Management Division
The City’s storm water infrastructure includes more than 402 miles of pipe that range from 6” to 98” in diameter, including trash collection devices such as Vortex Units, 15,000 structures, and over 80 miles of open creek. The majority of the City’s storm water infrastructure was constructed over 80 years ago. Since that time, very little to no upgrading of the system has taken place. Much of the system has long suffered from inadequate resources leading to increasing instances of flooding, erosion, and property damage.
Additionally, the City of Oakland is subject to storm water quality regulations (Municipal Regional Permit - MRP) that mandates the City implement numerous programs including : New development and redevelopment permitting and enforcement, Industrial and commercial site inspections, enforcement, and control, Illicit discharge detection and elimination, Construction site inspections, enforcement, and controls, Public information and outreach, Water quality monitoring, Trash load reduction, Mercury, PCBs, copper and legacy pesticide, PBDE, and selenium controls and Development of plans for implementation of green infrastructure. Watershed and Stormwater Management (WSM) implements components of the City of Oakland Creek Protection Ordinance (O.M.C. Chapter 13.16) such as responding to, including through enforcement actions, public inquiries regarding erosion, watershed health and resources, non-stormwater discharges to the storm drainage system, creeks, and/or waterways, and other stormwater- or watershed-related matters. WSM also implements and facilitates implementation of the City's Municipal Regional Stormwater NPDES Permit (MRP) (current Order No. is R2- 2022-0018) that regulates the discharge of stormwater to the City's storm drain system and includes prescriptive provisions regarding the prevention of non-stormwater discharges and discharge volume limitations. OPW WSM MRP compliance work includes implementing trash load reduction programs, public outreach and education efforts, green stormwater infrastructure planning and implementation, response to illegal discharges to storm drains, pollutants of concern load reduction programs, storm drainage asset management, MRP compliance cost reporting, MRP compliance training and support to other City departments and divisions, and Annual Report facilitation and completion.
Capital Contract Services Division
Capital Contracts administers the execution and solicitation of a variety of Capital Improvement Project Contracts (construction, consultant, and on-call) to support the delivery the Capital Improvement Program. In this current budget cycle, the division has processed approximately 275 unique contracts and task orders equating to $122M in contracting.
This division is responsible for implementing processes to ensure Federal, State, and Local requirements are being met for contracting. They also administer the development and solicitation of RFP/RFQs and bidding and awarding of construction contracts.
Construction Management Division
The division manages the construction of all the City’s major Capital Improvement Projects These construction projects are authorized, programed, and funded through the Capital Improvement Program. Construction management manages construction progress, payment for construction and/or professional services contracts to ensure compliance of prompt payment and contract compliance policies and oversees staffing and all functions in construction management.
Project and Grants Management Division
The staff implements and manages capital improvement projects in support of all City departments. Capital projects span across many types of improvements including buildings/facilities (i.e. libraries, police and fire facilities, recreation centers, pools, etc.), parks and open spaces, and sport fields. Capital projects are implemented in accordance with all applicable codes, ordinances, and policies such as the City’s planning policies, building codes, Green Building/LEED policy, Bay Friendly Landscape policy, ADA standards, and environmental and sustainability programs. Grant Management involves the identification of grant opportunities, preparation of grant applications, implementation of grant programs, fund reimbursement, and all other tasks necessary to meet the standards and conditions of various funding agencies. Capital project fund sources vary from State Park grant programs, local fund measures such as Measure WW East Bay Regional Park Bond, Measure DD City of Oakland bond, Measure KK City of Oakland Infrastructure Bond and partnerships with non-profit organizations.
571
Bureau of Maintenance & Internal Services
Facilities Services Division
Through the Facilities Services Division (FSD), Oakland Public Works provides custodial services, security, preventative and general maintenance to approximately 300 City- owned buildings (estimated 2.5 million square feet) ranging in size from the Police Administration Building (147,900 sq. ft.) to the FROG Park restroom (40 sq. ft.). FSD has also served as the lead in managing the City’s efforts to secure PPE and supplies, sanitize City vehicles and facilities, and otherwise ensure safe and healthy working environments in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. In Fiscal Year 2019-2020 Council allocated $1.25 million in Minor Capital Improvement Project (MCIP) funding for minor capital improvement repairs, which has recently been reduced to $1.0 million, This funding is used to perform proactive building maintenance, i.e., roofing replacement and repairs, facility painting, repair and replacement of building HVAC systems equipment, electrical upgrades and other required maintenance on all City-owned facilities that exceeds normal routine maintenance covered through O&M. The current backlog of unperformed MCIP projects and repair needs at City Facilities for each year is estimated at $2.5 - $3M and the reduction of MCIP funds is expected to escalate the backlog accumulation. This will result in further decline of facility conditions and likely result in more costly repairs in the future.
Equipment Services Division
The City of Oakland owns and operates over 1,800 vehicles and major pieces of equipment used to provide emergency, health and safety, and mission essential support to the citizens and businesses of Oakland. This equipment directly supports operations for the Fire, Police, Transportation, Public Works, and other city departments. Support staff performs the regulatory compliance reporting, preventative maintenance, mandated inspections, and repairs to ensure the equipment is in safe operating condition for the using Departments and keeping the City’s fleet at a 92% availability rate.
Sanitary Sewer & Drainage Maintenance Division
The City of Oakland operates and maintains a Sanitary Sewer System consisting of 934 miles of City-owned and operated sewer pipes, eleven pump stations, and over 28,554 manholes and other structures. The sanitary sewer collection system is the network of pipes, manholes, clean-outs, pump stations, and other structures used to collect residential, commercial, and industrial wastewater, and transport it to the East Bay Municipal Utility (EBMUD) treatment facility and is maintained and repaired by the Sewer Maintenance Division. Most of Oakland’s sewer system is greater than 50 years old. During wet-weather events, sewer flows are significantly increased due to infiltration and inflow (I/I) of storm water into the sanitary sewer system leading to sewer spills. Conditions such as ground movement, tree root intrusion, quality of material, and other factors can also cause sewer spills and significantly decrease the service-life of sewer pipes and manholes. The Sewer Maintenance Division responds to and remediates sewer spills, clears obstructions in the sewer system, and cleans, inspects, and performs preventive maintenance and minor repairs to the sanitary sewer system. In 2014, the City and the US EPA, along with other East Bay communities, agreed on a landmark 22-year sewer consent decree requiring at a minimum that the entire system is cleaned on a five year cycle (with annual progress check-ins and reporting) and the entire system is inspected with CCTV equipment on a 10 year cycle (with annual progress check-ins and reporting) with the stated goals of reducing sanitary sewer overflows and decreasing wet-weather flows into EBMUD facilities.
Bureau of Environment
Keep Oakland Clean & Beautiful
The Keep Oakland Clean and Beautiful program maintains and enhances the cleanliness, health, and appearance of City streets and neighborhoods. Activities include more than 31,000 annual requests for removal of illegal dumping; abatement of over 100 homeless encampments annually; removal of 800,000 sq. ft. of graffiti; support for volunteer cleanup and beautification events; special events support; and street sweeping of 614 routes monthly to improve the quality of life for Oakland residents and comply with Clean Water regulations.
Parks and Tree Services
Oakland Public Works provides landscape maintenance, litter removal for 134 parks and public spaces. This includes two region-serving parks, nine community parks, 53 neighborhood parks, 15 special use parks, 26 athletic fields, plus many mini-parks, linear parks, and public grounds. There are another 1,055 acres of Resource Conservation Area (open space) primarily in the Oakland hills. Approximately 100 landscaped medians and streetscapes are also included in the City's park maintenance responsibility along with grounds at City facilities. Oakland is known for its green tree canopy; the 100-year-old Jack London Oak tree symbolizes our commitment to being a Green City. The urban forest maintained by OPW consists of over 250,000 trees of which 65,000 are street trees (per the 2008 Sidewalk Survey) plus trees found in public parks, medians, streetscapes, and within the street right-of-way; the exact number has not been quantified.
Environmental Services Division
Environmental Services leads OPW efforts in the protection of Oakland’s natural resources and the improvement to health of our community, through programs that focus on energy efficiency and increased use of renewable energy sources, pollution prevention, environmental cleanup and restoration, waste reduction and recycling, and promotion of environmental sustainability.

SERVICE IMPACTS & EQUITY CONSIDERATIONS
Restorations
Provides convenient and accessible payment options for visitors, residents, and businesses throughout the city by allocating $1.25 million to pay third-party contractors of parking meter mobile payment application services.
Equity Consideration: Mobile parking applications promote equitable access by offering flexible payment options beyond traditional parking meter kiosks. Mobile app payments also offer greater convenience for customers with mobility challenges and support economic activity and transportation throughout the city.
1. Restores inspection response and the capacity to protect the quality of City infrastructure by funding 2.0 FTE Construction Inspectors for half the year. Inspections of utility and real estate development projects help generate economic activity for Oakland.
Equity Consideration: When resources are scarce, retail (i.e., resident) requests tend to suffer. With a restored roster of Construction Inspectors (CI), the City will not have to prioritize which inspection requests will or will not be honored. CI restoration benefits residents, including those in highest priority communities, and small businesses (e.g., restaurants) as well.
2. Restores the capacity to respond to Underground Service Alert's tickets to mark City-owned underground utilities before a contractor, utility company, or private citizen excavates pavement with 1.0 FTE Electrician Helper. This change will provide the much-needed increase in technical support for the Electrician staff. We are required to comply with a State of California decree to respond to USA tickets. Currently, the work is being covered by an understaffed team of Electricians who are overqualified for this work.
Equity Consideration: The Electrician Helper will avail the existing Electrician staff to meet the increasing demand to replace stolen copper wire and repair vandalism which occur disproportionately in equity neighborhoods.
3. Restores outreach and community engagement capacity for capital projects, which is currently underfunded compared to the number of active capital projects, with 2.0 FTE Public Information Officer.
Equity Consideration: Increases near-term ability to provide thorough and equitable public engagement for capital projects.
4. Progresses the City's Sidewalk Notice to Repair Program, which will repair and replace sidewalks throughout the City and then charge back the expenses to property owners to better maintain sidewalks and maintain ADA compliance, by including over $2 million in O&M. Also, swaps a 1.0 FTE Concrete Finisher for a 1.0 FTE Accountant I to meet the administrative needs of the program.
Equity Consideration: These resources will help to enforce and increase access to ADA compliant pedestrian Rights-of-Way throughout the City through City- administered sidewalk repair. In addition to improving accessibility to pedestrian rights-of-way, which will enhance quality of life for all residents and visitors of Oakland, the program will have cost waivers for low-income individuals to ensure that this does not create further cost burdens for them.
5. Restores the ability to clean streets by allocating $1.6 million for street sweeping.
Equity Consideration: Parking Enforcement related to street sweeping is vital for environmental compliance and public health by keeping trash off the streets and from entering our waterways as well as making neighborhoods look better. Low-income, majority People of Color neighborhoods including Chinatown, West Oakland, and San Antonio and Fruitvale are subject to more frequent street sweeping schedules due to Chinatown being a downtown business district and West Oakland and Eastlake being closer to bay (to prevent waste going into the waterways).
6. Increases OakDOT’s overtime budget by $100,000 for parking enforcement to cover weekend and overnight enforcement.
Equity Consideration: Consistent enforcement requires resources to respond to diverse needs including weekends, holidays and after hours, supporting safe streets and vibrant neighborhoods. Flatland neighborhoods often have greater enforcement needs and stand to benefit from consistent enforcement.
7. F Y 2 0 2 6 - 2 7 P R O P O S E D P O L I C Y B U D G E TF Y 2 0 2 6 - 2 7 P R O P O S E D P O L I C Y B U D G E T 573
Reductions
Other Impacts & Changes
Reduces $447,000 for repair & maintenance contract, mainly used to fix parking meters and purchase parts and replacement meters. Maintenance and repair costs are growing due to increased vandalism. Reducing funding for this account will result in meters not being repaired and replaced, and therefore not being in service and collecting revenue.
Equity Consideration: Delays in repairing meters and purchasing necessary parts may negatively impact equitable access to parking, particularly in commercial areas and underserved communities that rely on parking accessibility and turnover.
1. Reduces appropriations to pay credit card fee expenditures by $300,000. The City is contractually obligated to pay these fees in order to receive revenue from credit card based parking meter and citation payments. Over the last 5 years, OakDOT has spent about $1.3 million annually in bank and credit card fees. With the reduction, enough budget remains sufficient to cover the average annual expense. Should this increase in FY26-27, staff will be constrained to reduce budget in other areas to pay these fees.
Equity Consideration: While the proposed reduction is not expected to affect equity immediately, continued monitoring is necessary to ensure payment processing services remain uninterrupted.
2. Freezes 1.0 FTE City Land Surveyor for 3 months. This position is required to supervise the survey section staff and collaborate with other city departments for preparing legal documents like descriptions and maps needed for property deals, public records, and legal cases. This position is required for ensuring compliance with federal, state, and local laws, regulations, and standards governing land surveying activities, accurately establishing and verifying property lines and boundaries within the city limits.
Equity Consideration: This position is essential for advancing mapping efforts and other legal documentation related to housing development in Oakland that helps to reduce homelessness and provide housing to low-income residents.
3. Freezes 1.0 FTE Supervising Transportation Planner, 1.0 FTE Senior Traffic Engineering Technician, and deletes 1.0 FTE Supervising Transportation Engineer. These positions develop, design, and deliver capital improvement projects, prepare construction plans and specifications, and provide transportation analysis and policy feedback. Currently, there will be limited service impact as most functions are being supported by existing staff. However, capacity to take on new projects with additional grant funds may be limited.
Equity Consideration: There is no discernible equity impact from this action at this time. Although it may decrease long-term project deliver capacity should additional grant funds become available.
4. Realigns staffing classifications by swapping vacant positions for improved administration to maintain the City’s transportation system and assure safe, equitable, and sustainable access and mobility for residents, businesses, and visitors. Adds 1.0 FTE Process Coordinator II and deletes 1.0 FTE Senior Engineering Technician for Right of Way Management. Adds 1.0 FTE Project Manager II and deletes 1.0 FTE Assistant to the Director for Abandoned Auto, Parking Enforcement, and Mobility Management Programs. Adds 1.0 FTE Civil Engineer and deletes 1.0 FTE Electrical Engineer III to design and monitor traffic signal and streetlight operations long overdue for updates.
Adds 1.0 FTE Electrical Supervisor and deletes 1.0 FTE Electrical Construction & Maintenance Planner to increase the needed supervisorial capacity of the unit. Adds 1.0 FTE Program Analyst II and deletes 1.0 FTE School Traffic Safety Supervisor for the 100+ year-old Student Safety Patrol Program. Adds 1.0 FTE Accountant III which is offset by the deletion of 0.5 FTE Accountant III and 0.5 FTE Budget & Grants Administrator, both housed in OPW. This add/delete separates the remaining shared accounting and reporting staff resulting from the separation of OakDOT from OPW.
Equity Consideration: Vacancies in the existing positions continue to put the community at risk. Traffic signal operations need to be designed, monitored, and updated to meet ADA standards. The Student Safety Patrol Program would be significantly reduced or suspended, which could affect elementary schools in underserved communities. An additional Electrical Supervisor will increase the units ability to meet the increasing demand to replace stolen copper wire and repair vandalism which occur disproportionately in equity neighborhoods. With these changes, staff will be able to widen the recruitment pool while still maintaining the capacity to serve Oakland residents.
1. Revenue collection activities related to Parking (e.g. citation payment, meter collection, parking garage operation) is proposed to be transferred from Transportation to Finance, a total of 17.0 FTE across multiple job classifications.
Equity Consideration: There is no discernible equity impact from this action.

SERVICES
Below is a comprehensive list of the services and activities provided by City departments to internal and external customers, which describes the City’s operations throughout the Oakland community, including collaborative efforts with other governments and community partners. Internal customers include other City departments and elected officials, while external customers are comprised of residents, businesses, visitors, and similar persons.
Automated Camera Enforcement
AB 645 is a California law that enables Departments of Transprotation to operate a five-year pilot of automated speed enforcement. SB 720 (The Safer Streets Act of 2025) is a California law enacted to modernize red-light camera programs by allowing cities to issue automated civil penalties based on license plates rather than driver photos. It shifts violations from criminal to civil, reduces fines, and redirects revenue to local traffic safety improvement.
Construction, Planning, And Project Development
Develops, designs, and delivers capital improvement projects (pedestrian, transit, beautification, access, etc). Prepare construction plans and specifications. Inspect and approve construction of pavement, sidewalks, curb ramps. Provides transportation analysis and policy feedback for proposed private development projects; plans, performs public engagement and outreach on transportation policies, programs, services, and projects; prepares preliminary concepts, designs, plans for public, staff, city council consideration before advancing to final plans.
Crossing Guards
Provide trained adult crossing guards at public elementary and middle schools to assist students and parents in crossing streets using criteria established through a multi- agency Safe Routes to Schools program comprised of representatives from OUSD, ACTC, OPD, OakDOT and non-profits.
Parking Enforcement
Enforce parking regulations to ensure parking turnover to support businesses, enforce pedestrian/traffic safety, provide equal access (e.g. disabled parking zones), street sweeping, elimination of blight (no overnight parking), issue citations, and generally promote quality of life on City streets. Operate, maintain, repair, and collect revenue from parking meters.
Parking Meter Collections
Parking Meter Collections is responsible for collecting parking meter revenue from the on and off-street parking meters. They also perform counting, sorting, bagging of the coins for different coin denominations and Brink’s pick up.
Right-of-Way Management
Provide Utilities, Developers, and Citizens the tools they need to work within Oakland’s Right of Way while securing City assets, protecting the public, and preserving Oakland’s infrastructure– and do it with an unparalleled quality of service.
Street and Sidewalk Maintenance
Provide high quality repair and construction of sidewalks, curbs, gutters, and curb ramps; installs fencing and guardrails, repair concrete streets, construct pedestrian safety islands. Perform construction services including full-scale paving, pothole repair, crack sealing and gutter cleaning, and emergency response during and after storms and landslides. Maintain and install street signs, pavement markings and stripes.
Street Lights and Signals Engineering and Maintenance
Manage utility undergrounding projects, lighting calculations, and review private development projects. Provide 24/7 service, installation and repair of street lights, and respond to downed poles. Install, operate, and maintain over 700 traffic signals to have safe and efficient arterial streets.
Structure & Emergency Response
Provide professional engineering services for streets projects in response to disaster and emergencies, during and after events (e.g.; storm damage, landslides, fire recovery, earthquakes, etc.), as well as bridge repair/seismic retrofits, and pedestrian paths and stairs repair projects to provide safe infrastructure for all users.

Survey
Provide quality, accurate, and dependable land surveying and map review services for the entire City.
Traffic Engineering and Safety
Advance roadway safety and efficiency by applying engineering measures, establishing roadway rules and regulations, and making transportation safe, accessible, and equitable.
Includes sustainable transportation options, including bicycles and bikeshare, walking, public transit, carshare, scooters, etc.
Vehicle Enforcement Unit
Since 2023, OakDOT's Vehicle Enforcement Unit is organized, staffed and equipped to handle three basic service areas: Abandoned Auto; Scofflaw; and Vehicle Encampments.
Off-Street Parking Garages/Lots
Off-street parking offers parking in areas other than on the streets. The Off-Street Parking Program is overseen by professional parking operators who manage these facilities to maximize their value for the surrounding districts.
Parking Mobility Management
Actively managing the City’s parking system means managing both parking supply and parking demand. The Mobility Management Unit plays a leading role in both through policy research and development, piloting new programs and administering several dozen existing programs ranging from bus shelters and electric vehicle charging to blue zones and electric scooters.
PERFORMANCE MEASURES
Performance Measures are metrics that collect information about operational activities, achievement of goals, community conditions, or other environmental factors to better understand present conditions and inform operational, managerial, policy, and community decisions. Performance Measures are composed of Service Output Measures, which describe a specific service measurement and the numerical value of that service on an annualized basis; and Equitable Service Delivery Success Standards, which describe the “gold standard” target service level for every customer/area of the City, including those who have been historically underserved, and is sometimes expressed as a percentage of the service delivery meeting a specific threshold. Service Levels are designated parameters of City operations, such as weekly facility hours, standard response times for emergency services, and standard response times for requests through OAK311.
Performance measures should identify, track, and improve access to City services for Oakland residents with a goal of continuous improvement in equitable outcomes over time through data collection and analysis. The annualized measurement provided against the Equitable Service Delivery Success Standard will be used to analyze and address areas needing improvement, including racial disparities, for equity purposes. The initial metrics chosen have a particular focus on assuring equitable service delivery to Oakland’s Black, Indigenous, and People of Color (BIPOC) residents, and selected for their potential to advance systemic change and close racial disparities in policy outcomes.

DEBT OBLIGATIONS
The City of Oakland has undertaken responsibility for gathering information relating to debt issuances for which the City of Oakland, the Oakland Joint Powers Financing Authority, the Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum Authority, and the Redevelopment Successor Agency of the City of Oakland have Continuing Disclosure Obligations.
The City of Oakland's underlying ratings for its bonds as of July 1, 2025 were as follows:
GENERAL OBLIGATION BONDS. As of July 1, 2025, the City had outstanding a total of $706,815,000 aggregate principal amount of general obligation bonds. The bonds are general obligations of the City, approved by at least two-thirds of the voters. The City has the power and is obligated to levy ad valorem taxes upon all property within the City, subject to taxation without limitation, as to the rate or the amount (except certain property taxable at limited rates) for the payment of principal and interest on these bonds. 591
SEWER REVENUE DEBT. The City has also issued bonds secured by revenues of its sewer system. These bonds were issued to refund the outstanding Sewer Revenue Bonds, 2004 Series A.
LEASE OBLIGATIONS. The City has entered into various long-term lease arrangements that secure lease revenue bonds or certificates of participation, under which the City must make lease payments, payable by the City from its General Fund to occupy public buildings or use equipment. The table below summarizes the City’s outstanding long-term lease obligations.
The lease payments securing OACCA bonds are joint and several obligations of both the City and the County of Alameda. Each entity has covenanted to budget and appropriate one-half of the annual lease payments, and to take supplemental budget action if required to cure any deficiency. Principal amounts shown represent half of total original and outstanding par, representing the amount that is directly attributable to the City. 592
OTHER LONG-TERM BORROWINGS. The City has debt outstanding for one bond issues supported by assessment districts. Debt service on each of these assessment and reassessment bond issues is paid solely from assessments levied on real property within the respective districts. The City is not responsible for debt service on the bonds in the event that assessment collections are not sufficient. The table below summarizes the City’s outstanding assessment bonds.
PENSION OBLIGATION BONDS. The City has one series of pension obligation bonds outstanding to fund a portion of the current balance of the City’s Unfunded Actuarial Accrued Liability (“UAAL”) for retirement benefits to members of the Oakland Police and Fire Retirement System (“PFRS”). The table below summarizes the current outstanding pension obligation bond issues.
REDEVELOPMENT SUCCESSOR AGENCY OF THE CITY OF OAKLAND. The City’s Former Redevelopment Agency and Redevelopment Successor Agency have issued several series of tax allocation bonds to provide funding for blight alleviation and economic development in parts of the City or for the construction of low-income housing. The bonds are payable from the revenues deposited into the Redevelopment Property Tax Trust Fund which were formerly tax increment revenues received from the specific redevelopment project areas. Tax allocation bonds have been issued for the Central District Redevelopment Project Area, the Coliseum Area Redevelopment Project Area, the Central City East 593
Redevelopment Project Area, and the Broadway/MacArthur/San Pablo Redevelopment Project Area. In addition, bonds have been issued that are secured by dedicated housing set-aside revenues from all the City’s redevelopment project areas.
The tables below summarize the Redevelopment Successor Agency’s outstanding tax allocation debt, including the final maturity date, original par amounts and amounts outstanding. All information below is presented as of July 1, 2025. 594

UPDATED UNFUNDED LIST
Given the existing maintenance backlog and limited financial resources, the City has a growing list of capital needs. The current list of nearly 300 unfunded capital projects presented below, categorized by asset type, has an estimated construction cost well over $2 billion.
Unfunded projects are ranked by CIP prioritization score below, with information about the capital asset, corresponding City department, and cost estimates (when available). High ranking projects are kept as top priorities when new funding opportunities arrive. However, since grant programs have different requirements, City staff need to balance identifying the most competitive projects for grants while also advancing the CIP values.
Unfunded capital projects, especially prior community project requests, often need more evaluation, engagement, and planning by staff in order to be more competitive in the CIP prioritization process and rank more highly. All unfunded projects are assessed and evaluated each cycle by City CIP coordinators.
*Please note: Unfunded project budgets shown represent estimated project costs. Budget amounts with zero (0) indicates the budgets are still being developed.
Transportation
Each cycle, the CIP team updates the metrics used to score projects with the most up-to-date data available. In order to ensure consistency across the past four budget cycles, all CIP scores underwent a normalization process during the FY25-27 CIP development. This allows for CIP scores to be compared over time and comprehensively ranked.

Storm Drainage & Watershed*
*The City of Oakland’s Watershed and Stormwater Management Division has identified priority stormwater management, storm drainage repair and improvement, and water quality improvement projects to address hazards, and/or to comply with environmental regulations. Each project has been evaluated against the 9 principles of the City’s CIP Project Prioritization Process. The CIP’s unfunded project list includes general projects to show the that funding is needed for unexpected urgent storm drainage, creek bank, and creek channel repairs, and for future water quality improvement compliance projects that are under development. The City plans to seek external funding for the planning, design and implementation of some of these unfunded projects, including through Federal grants. These projects and project categories are listed here as Unfunded Projects, to establish their importance to the City, and to show estimated funding needed to implement them. These projects are not being added to the City Budget at this time, as funded projects received higher CIP prioritization scores. Therefore external funding sources would be needed for implementation of unfunded urgent infrastructure repair/improvement projects and water quality protection projects required by Federal Clean Water Act/municipal stormwater permit regulations.
