EXHIBIT A

SCOPE OF SERVICES
CONSULTANT shall provide the Services detailed in this Exhibit A, entitled “SCOPE OF SERVICES”. Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, CONSULTANT’s duties and services described in this Scope of Services shall not include preparing or assisting CITY with any portion of CITY’s preparation of a request for proposals, request for qualifications, or any other solicitation regarding a subsequent or additional contract with CITY. CITY shall at all times retain responsibility for public contracting, including with respect to any subsequent phase of this project.

CONSULTANT’s participation in the planning, discussions, or drawing of project plans or specifications shall be limited to conceptual, preliminary, or initial plans or specifications.

CONSULTANT shall cooperate with CITY to ensure that all bidders for a subsequent contract on any subsequent phase of this project have access to the same information, including all conceptual, preliminary, or initial plans or specifications prepared by CONSULTANT pursuant to this Scope of Services.

Introduction
CONSULTANT shall conduct a waste characterization study (WCS) of the City’s municipal solid waste stream. All materials are collected by the City’s exclusive contractor, GreenWaste of Palo Alto (GWPA).

The current Zero Waste Plan (ZW Plan), last updated in 2018, establishes strategies and initiatives to help the City achieve its objective of diverting 95 percent of waste from landfill disposal by 2030. The city completed a comprehensive WCS in 2017 to support the ZW Plan. A new WCS is needed to support a future update of the ZW Plan, which will be conducted under a separate Agreement.

Under this Agreement, the consultant shall conduct a 2026 WCS, analyze the collected data, and develop clear visual representations of the findings suitable for use in reports, presentations, and public communications and to help guide an update to the future ZW Plan. The consultant shall also perform a comparative analysis between the 2026 results and the 2017 WCS to assess changes and trends. Based on the findings, the consultant shall provide recommendations on materials and strategies that could further reduce landfill disposal and support progress toward the City’s diversion goal.

The WCS shall include the following waste sectors:
• Residential single-family garbage, recyclables, and compost are materials GWPA collects from single-family residences (single-family homes and townhouses or buildings with up to four residential units). These materials typically arrive at the GreenWaste Recovery Materials Recovery Facility located in San Jose (GWR MRF) in packer trucks (e.g., side loaders). Compost is taken to the GreenWaste Renewable Energy Digestion Facility. During this study, CONSULTANT shall collect samples of these materials directly from carts at the curb in front of single-family homes on collection day and bring collected samples to the GWR MRF for sorting by CONSULTANT field team stationed there.

• Residential multifamily garbage, recyclables, and compost are collected by GWPA from multifamily residences (apartments or condominiums with more than four residential units). It typically arrives at GWR MRF in packer trucks (e.g., front loaders). GWPA collects multifamily materials in the same truck as commercial garbage, recyclables and compostable materials therefore some coordination with GWPA shall be necessary to ensure a select amount (or volume) of material is collected from multifamily locations for the WCS.
• Commercial garbage is garbage collected from the commercial sector in a front-load, or side-load compacting vehicle. The materials are delivered to the GWR MRF for processing.
• Commercial recyclables are recyclable materials collected from the commercial sector in a front-load, or side-load compacting vehicle. The materials are delivered to the GWR MRF for processing.
• Commercial compost is compostable material collected from the commercial sector in a front-load, or side-load self-contained compacting vehicle. It is typically delivered to GreenWaste Renewable Energy Digestion Facility. Selected loads shall be rerouted to the GWR MRF for sampling during this study.
• Hospital garbage is collected in compactors from the three local hospitals located in Palo Alto in a roll-off vehicle. The materials are delivered to the GWR MRF for processing. Hospitals in Palo Alto consist of the Stanford Hospital, the Veteran’s Affair Hospital, and the Palo Alto Medical Foundation.
• Loose roll-off garbage is garbage collected from the commercial sector in a noncompacted open-top roll-off container, commonly referred to as a “debris box” or “dropbox.” • Mixed construction and demolition materials (C&D) is recoverable material generated from construction activities and bulky materials delivered to the GreenWaste Zanker Resource Recovery Facility in loose roll-off boxes.
• Residuals are produced as byproducts from the two GreenWaste materials recovery facilities. Residuals do not include fines screened from the trommels.

The primary objectives of the 2026 WCS are:

A. Characterize Waste Composition
CONSULTANT shall determine the composition of the City’s recycling, compost, and landfill waste streams using a statistically representative sampling methodology and material categories relevant to the Palo Alto waste stream. To allow for the comparison of the 2017 WCS data with the new 2026 WCS data, CITY requests using the sampling methodology utilized in 2017 WCS Appendix B, Study Design or an alternative methodology to be approved by the City.

Meeting Date: September 28, 2026
Report #:2607-6560
TITLE
Approval of Contract Amendment Number 2 to Contract C21181846 with CAD Masters, Inc. in the Amount of $420,000 for a total not to exceed $2,370,000 for Continued Support of Utility Engineering Systems and Applications through August 2, 2029 (a total of 8 years); CEQA Status:

Not a Project Under CEQA Guidelines Section 15378

RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the City Council authorize the City Manager to execute Amendment No. 2 to Contract No. C21181846 with CAD Masters, Inc., extending the term of the contract through August 2, 2029, and increasing the contract authority by an additional $420,000, for a revised not-to-exceed amount of $2,370,000.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The Utilities Department requests approval of Amendment No. 2 to extend the existing professional services agreement with CAD Masters, Inc. through August 2, 2029, under a reduced scope of work. CAD Masters developed several of the City's custom utility applications and engineering workflows, including Service Order Generation (SOGEN), DWG Generation (DWGGEN), and Electrical Equipment Maintenance (EEM), and possesses extensive institutional knowledge of the City's utility engineering systems, software architecture, and business processes. Transitioning these services to another consultant would require significant time, cost, and operational risk.

Due to the ongoing transition from Autodesk AutoCAD Map 3D Enterprise (AME) to Esri ArcGIS Pro, the scope of services has significantly decreased. However, continued support remains critical for AutoCAD Civil 3D design work and for maintaining the SOGEN system, which is essential for daily utility operations and development services.

Extending the existing relationship avoids operational risk, ensures continuity during a major system transition, and reflects prudent fiscal management by reducing the scope of work and annual contract authority from $390,000 to $140,000.

Item 10: Staff Report Pg. 1 Packet Pg. 173 of 342

BACKGROUND
Since 2009, CAD Masters, Inc. has provided professional services to the Utilities Department to support CAD systems, custom applications, and engineering workflows. Since the original 2009 agreement, the City Council approved a five-year extension in 2011, followed by new five-year agreements in 2016 and 2021.1 The 2021 agreement was originally scheduled to expire on June 30, 2026. Amendment No. 1 subsequently extended the agreement by six months, through December 31, 2026, without increasing the contract amount.

The annual authorization has varied under the successive agreements: $300,000 annually under the 2011 extension, $500,000 annually under the 2016 agreement, and $390,000 annually under the current 2021 agreement. Actual expenditures under the current agreement have averaged approximately $120,000 annually over the past five years, with expenditures reaching approximately $148,000 in one year, reflecting the City’s use of these services on an as-needed basis.

The City’s technology environment has evolved significantly, particularly with the migration to Esri ArcGIS Pro that is currently underway. As a result, Utilities reevaluated its long-term consulting needs and determined that a significantly reduced scope of services is sufficient to support ongoing operations during the transition. Based on anticipated migration and workflow-replacement activities, Utilities determined that an annual authorization of $140,000 over the proposed extension period would provide sufficient capacity while remaining substantially below the $390,000 annual authorization under the current agreement.

ANALYSIS
Technology Transition and Reduced Scope
The City is currently transitioning from Autodesk AutoCAD Map 3D Enterprise (AME) to Esri ArcGIS Pro as the primary platform for utility mapping and asset management. The migration is expected to be substantially completed by the end of February 2027. Following the migration, staff will begin using ArcGIS Pro for day-to-day operations, while Utilities and IT continue supporting user adoption, workflow refinement, and post-implementation support.

During the extension period, staff plans to actively pursue a replacement for SOGEN and transition the custom workflows currently supported by CAD Masters to more standard applications. Staff will reassess its reliance on CAD Masters each year. By the end of the second year, staff expects to issue an RFP for qualified consultants to provide ongoing support for these applications and other systems, such as AutoCAD Civil 3D. The extension period will provide continuity during the transition and allow time to complete a competitive procurement before the amendment expires.
1 City Council, May 17, 2021, Agenda Item No. 5, Staff Report No. 12082:

Item 10 Staff Report
Item 10: Staff Report Pg. 2 Packet Pg. 174 of 342
As a result, a substantial portion of CAD Masters’ previous scope, particularly AME-related support, is no longer required. Future service needs are expected to be significantly reduced.

While the scope has been substantially reduced from previous contract terms, CAD Masters will continue providing support for critical utility engineering applications, including SOGEN, AutoCAD Civil 3D, ArcGIS Pro, Oracle databases, data integration, and related engineering workflows. IT Department will support Utilities in identifying and implementing a long-term replacement for SOGEN within the Esri ecosystem.

Ongoing Critical Support Needs

1. AutoCAD Civil 3D Design Support
Utilities Engineering continues to use AutoCAD Civil 3D for Capital Improvement Program (CIP) projects, including pipeline replacement and rehabilitation. CAD Masters’ familiarity with City standards enables efficient support without additional onboarding or training.

2. Service Order Generation (SOGEN) System
CAD Masters developed the custom SOGEN system to support the City's utility operations.

SOGEN is a tool used to generate and track service orders, support maintenance and repairs, and coordinate work between Engineering and Operations.

SOGEN also supports the WGW Development Services program by tracking utility-related work tied to private development permits and coordinating field operations. Disruption to SOGEN would impact operations, development coordination, customer service, and revenue.

Rationale for Amendment of Current Contract
Staff recommends amending the current contract rather than issuing a new RFP because the remaining services involve support of custom utility applications, specialized engineering workflows, and systems that are to be reviewed for standardization and scalability with current day best practices during this extension period. Conducting a competitive procurement at this time would provide limited value while increasing operational risk while system transition for GIS is ongoing and review of long term replacement of legacy systems is active.

FISCAL/RESOURCE IMPACT
The proposed amendment increases the contract authority by $420,000. Funding for the first year is available through Water Fund Capital Improvement Program Project WS-02014 (WGW Utility GIS Data), resulting in a revised not-to-exceed contract amount of $2,370,000 through August 2, 2029. Funding for any future years is subject to City Council approval through the annual budget process.

TITLE
Approval of Amendment No. 4 to Contract No. C20176877 with Schaaf & Wheeler Consulting Civil Engineers to Extend the Contract Term Through June 30, 2027 for the Corporation Way System Upgrades and Pump Station (SD-21000), West Bayshore Road Pump Station (SD-20000), and West Bayshore Trunk Line Improvements (SD-23000) Projects; CEQA Status - Exempt Under CEQA Guidelines Section 15301

RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the City Council approve and authorize the City Manager or their designee to execute Amendment No. 4 to Contract No. C20176877 with Schaaf & Wheeler Consulting Civil Engineers. This amendment extends the Contract term through June 30, 2027, with no changes to the contract scope or not-to-exceed amount for the Corporation Way System Upgrades and Pump Station (SD-21000), West Bayshore Road Pump Station (SD-20000), and West Bayshore Road Trunk Line Improvements (SD-23000) projects.

BACKGROUND
The Corporation Way System Upgrades and Pump Station, West Bayshore Road Pump Station, and West Bayshore Road Trunk Line Improvements projects are three of the highest-priority storm drain projects identified in the City's 2015 Storm Drain Master Plan. Design contract C20176877 was awarded to Schaaf & Wheeler Consulting Civil Engineers (Schaaf & Wheeler) on June 15, 2020.1 The original contract had a four-year term that extended to May 30, 2024. Due to the time required to secure easements within private properties and obtain project entitlement and building permit approvals, the contract was extended to November 30, 2024 by Amendment No. 1.2 Amendment No. 2 updated the contract rate schedule and extended the 1 City Council, June 15, 2020; Agenda Item #2; SR # 100992 https://recordsportal.paloalto.gov/WebLink/DocView.aspx?id=80673&dbid=0&repo=PaloAlto 2 Schaaf & Wheeler Consulting Civil Engineers for Professional Services C20176877 Amendment No.1 https://www.paloalto.gov/files/assets/public/v/1/public-works/staff-reports-all/2027/c20176877-schaaf-wheeleramend-1_final-contract-signed-03-08-2024-2607-6599.pdf Item 11

term to February 28, 2026.5
Due to delays in bidding, Amendment No. 3 extended the contract term to August 28, 2026.6

ANALYSIS
Amendment No. 4 (Attachment A) extends the contract term through June 30, 2027. The project is currently under construction and requires the expertise of Schaaf & Wheeler to provide construction administration support. Construction administration includes responding to requests for information, field visits, and project close-out and documentation including the preparation of as-built drawings. The construction of the project was scheduled to be completed by August 19, 2026. Due to risks associated with ground water dewatering and its impact to existing utilities including a PG&E gas transmission line, the project’s completion has been delayed. Staff and Schaaf & Wheeler Consulting Civil Engineers agreed to amend the contract to extend the term through June 30, 2027, with no changes to scope or fee.

FISCAL/RESOURCE IMPACT
This contract amendment is for a time extension only and has no direct funding impact. Funding for this contract is appropriated in projects SD-21000, SD-20000, and SD-23000.

STAKEHOLDER ENGAGEMENT
Staff have presented to and will continue to notify and update the Storm Water Management Oversight Committee on the progress of the three projects. Extensive public outreach has been conducted as part of the construction phase to keep the community informed throughout the process, including flyers sent to adjacent residences and businesses, notices posted online on Nextdoor and the City's website and changeable electronic message boards placed in the field and later replaced by project signs.

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The project is categorically exempt from the provisions of the California Environmental Quality ACT (CEQA) under Section 15301(d) of the CEQA Guidelines.

TITLE
706 Cowper Street [26PLN-00144]. Council Preliminary Review for Comprehensive Plan Land Use Plan Map Amendment to Allow an Approximately 400 Square Foot Commercial Addition to a Category 1 Historic Resource in the Multiple-Family Residential Land Use Designation. CEQA Status: Not a Project.

RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends Council acknowledge and accept staff response to the Preliminary Review application for a Comprehensive Plan Map Amendment to allow a minor expansion of commercial floor area in a residential land use designation.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
The applicant requests a Preliminary Review application to change the Comprehensive Plan land use designation for the site from Multiple-Family Residential to a designation that permits office use. This, in turn, would facilitate an approximately 400 square foot expansion to an existing office use permitted under a 1970s Planned Community (PC) ordinance (Attachment D). The project includes a new two-story addition, seismic and historic rehabilitation of an existing Category 1 historic structure. A project of this minor nature would normally be approved at a staff level pursuant to Palo Alto Municipal Code (PAMC) Section

18.76.020(b)(3)(E). This prescreening is required, however, in accordance with PAMC Section

18.79.030(A), because staff identified the need to amend the City’s Comprehensive Plan.

Due to the minor nature of the subject application, this item is placed on the consent calendar as an efficient approach authorized pursuant to PAMC 18.79.050(a), which gives the City Council broad discretion in the manner in which to conduct the review. Receipt and review of the Preliminary Review application on the consent calendar paves the way for the applicant to file a formal application. If desired, individual Councilmembers could provide feedback under Councilmember comments or when approving the consent calendar. If three or more Item 12
Item 12 Staff Report
Item 12: Staff Report Pg. 1 Packet Pg. 193 of 342
Councilmembers are interested in pulling the item from the consent calendar for discussion, staff will be prepared to support that discussion on the same evening.

After this Preliminary Review has been received, the applicant may file a formal application to amend the Comprehensive Plan Land Use Plan Map. Such amendments require Planning and Transportation Commission review and recommendation, followed by Council’s action by ordinance decision as set forth in PAMC Chapter 18.80.

BACKGROUND
Known as the T.B. Downing House, the subject property at 706 Cowper Street is currently listed as a Category 1 (“Exceptional Building”) on Palo Alto’s Historic Inventory. The building is also listed on the California Register of Historical Resources and the National Register of Historic Places under Criterion C3 (Architecture). The three-story-over-basement building was originally constructed in 1894 as a single-family residence and designed in the Queen Anne style by architect and builder W. Matlock Campbell.

Since its construction, the property has undergone a series of alterations over the years, though these modifications have not affected the integrity of the historic structure’s eligibility for any of the registers on which it is listed. In 1901, a detached residential structure was added to the property, followed by a detached garage in 1924. Both structures were later demolished.

Between 1949 and 1975, portions of the original front porch were enclosed, and minor additions were made to the east façade. A 1973 fire heavily damaged the third floor, prompting substantial repairs and interior reconstruction in 1977, along with roof reframing. At that time the property was rezoned to PC-3007 (Attachment D) to allow for the conversion from residential to office use. In 1978, major alterations included additions to the rear, enclosure of the southeast wraparound porch, construction of new upper-story volumes and decks, exterior stairs, basement excavation, and landscaping changes. The building was subsequently reroofed in 1978 and 2001. Other alterations of unknown dates include demolition of a detached rear dwelling, filling of the entrance transom, and installation of skylights.

Project Description
The project includes an approximately 400-square-foot, two-story L-shaped rear and side addition that would provide additional workspace for the existing office use. The addition is located within areas of the rear and side elevations that were substantially altered in 1978, minimizing impacts to the historic street-facing facades. The project also includes interior reconfiguration that would likely trigger required seismic rehabilitation due to structural modifications; two ADA-accessible parking spaces with EV charging infrastructure; an ADAaccessible rear entrance; two ADA-compliant bathrooms; and a publicly accessible front-yard open space featuring a garden with native plant species and interpretive signage. Routine maintenance and repair of historic wood and window components would occur, including paint removal and repainting, sash repair and reglazing, repairs to frames and operating hardware, Item 12
Item 12 Staff Report
Item 12: Staff Report Pg. 2 Packet Pg. 194 of 342
and repair of exterior wood elements such as porch railings, columns, decking, ceilings, siding, cornices, and window and door casings and surrounds.

Surrounding Uses
The property is located on a rectangular parcel at the southeast corner of Cowper Street and Forest Avenue in Palo Alto’s University South neighborhood. Surrounding uses include the twostory boutique hotel Cowper Inn (Category 3 historic resource) to the north, a one-story medical office to the east, a one-story medical office across Downing Lane to the south, and a two-story, 12-unit residential building to the west.

ANALYSIS
Staff will prepare a thorough analysis of the Zoning Code and Comprehensive Plan compliance upon submittal of a formal application, if filed. The preliminary review below summarizes the conceptual plans and identifies key policy considerations.

Comprehensive Plan Compliance
The site has a Comprehensive Plan land use designation of Multiple-Family Residential, which allows residential densities of 8 to 40 units and 8 to 90 persons per acre, with lower densities encouraged adjacent to single-family residential areas. Although the PC zoning specifically allows the existing office land use that has operated since the 1970’s, this use is not consistent with the site’s land use designation. Due to the proposed expansion of the established office use, an amendment to the Comprehensive Plan Land Use Map is also required as part of a formal application. It is anticipated that any future Comprehensive Plan amendment would be narrowly focused on minor expansions of existing commercial uses with planned community ordinance approves thereby limiting the scope of the amendment’s applicability.

Aside from the land use designation, several Comprehensive Plan policies and goals support the project, including:
• Policy L-7.1 encourages the public and private upkeep and preservation of resources with historic merit.
• Policy L-7.9 specifically allows compatible nonconforming uses to continue for the life of historic buildings, recognizing that continued use can support the long-term preservation and maintenance of historic resources.
• Policy L-7.10 supports the preservation of significant historic resources while allowing them to be adapted to contemporary needs consistent with the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for Rehabilitation.
• Policy C-1.7 encourages public access to privately owned open spaces and facilities for community meetings and events.

The project would still retain the existing historic resource while allowing modifications to accommodate the existing use and meet contemporary needs. The proposed seismic and historic rehabilitation would improve the safety of the structure, bring it more into Item 12
Item 12 Staff Report
Item 12: Staff Report Pg. 3 Packet Pg. 195 of 342
conformance with ADA and green building code requirements for accessibility and efficiency, and restore some of the original historic features. The project would also provide a new privately owned public open space, consistent with the Comprehensive Plan’s encouragement for increased public access to open spaces.

While the project is largely consistent with the overall goals and intent of the Comprehensive Plan, a Comprehensive Plan Amendment would be required to formally align the existing land use and allow the expansion of office floor area on the property.

Zoning Compliance
The existing Planned Community (PC-3007) allows professional and general office uses and requires six on-site parking and eight secured bicycle spaces. Further, PC-3007 requires that “the building be restored, maintained, and preserved as much as possible to its original appearance insofar as architectural features are concerned.” Although no changes to the land use is proposed, the following items would need to be addressed as development standards under a new Planned Community.
• The existing 11 parking spaces would be reduced to 9 spaces, including two EV spaces. • The floor area for the site would increase by approximately 400 square feet. • A historic preservation covenant would be requested to ensure future development complies with the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for Rehabilitation.

PAMC Section 18.76.020 provides for Architectural Review of minor changes to previously approved Planned Community Districts. Based on an initial review of the conceptual plans, it appears the proposed changes are eligible for administrative approval. The conceptual design also appears generally consistent with the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for Rehabilitation by locating the addition on the secondary rear and side elevations and limiting changes to the building’s primary street facing facades. This approach minimizes the visual impact of the addition and helps preserve the building’s historic character. The formal project would still be required to demonstrate compliance with the Standards as part of the review process.

Under PAMC Section 18.76.020 a “minor” change must be of little visual significance, not materially alter the appearance of previously approved improvements, and not alter the character of the structure.1 Based on the conceptual plans, the proposed addition appears consistent with these criteria, subject to review of the formal project plans. 1 PAMC Section 18.76.020(b)(3)(E): the term "minor" means a change that is of little visual significance, does not materially alter the appearance of previously approved improvements, is not proposed for the use of the land in question, and does not alter the character of the structure involved. If the cumulative effect of multiple minor changes would result in a major change, a new application for Architectural Review approval of a major project, Site and Design approval, Planned Community District approval, or other applicable approval is required.

Historic Resource
706 Cowper Street is listed as a Category 1 (“Exceptional Building”) historic resource on the City’s Historic Inventory. Category 1 resources are buildings of preeminent national or state importance, meritorious works by notable architects, or outstanding examples of architectural development, and are subject to historic preservation project review. The property is also listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Despite the property being a listed historic resource, Item 12
Item 12 Staff Report
Item 12: Staff Report Pg. 5 Packet Pg. 197 of 342
it is not currently eligible to participate in the Transfer of Development Rights (TDR) program.

The property is located outside the boundaries of the Downtown Commercial (CD) District, and the ordinance establishing the Planned Community (PC) zoning district did not authorize the use of transferable development rights on the site.

The proposed adaptive reuse would involve interior alterations in addition to exterior work.

Although the City’s Historic Preservation Ordinance primarily addresses exterior alterations, both the interior and exterior work would be evaluated under the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for Rehabilitation to ensure the property’s character-defining features and historic significance are preserved. The 1973 National Register nomination noted that, “The interior was divided into five apartments many years ago, but the original elaborate woodwork and fixtures have remained,” indicating a history of interior alterations. Potential contributing features include the staircase, interior doors and trim, ceiling medallions, interior window frames, and possibly the front ground-floor room arrangements. These features would need to be evaluated as part of the formal application review.

Seismic Rehabilitation
The subject property is not listed on the City’s Seismic List. However, California Building Code Section 503.11 requires, in part, that where work exceeds 50 percent of the building area and involves substantial structural alterations, the lateral load-resisting system of the altered building must satisfy current building code requirements. As a listed historic resource, the property is also subject to the California Historical Building Code (CHBC), which provides alternative approaches to building code requirements associated with the preservation and rehabilitation of qualified historic buildings. The CHBC allows structural and seismic upgrades to be designed based on the actual properties of historic materials and sound engineering principles and professional judgment, rather than prescriptive code requirements. This flexibility can facilitate greater retention of historic fabric while addressing necessary structural improvements.

The applicant has not yet conducted a structural analysis of the building at this preliminary stage. A formal application would provide an opportunity for the required structural and seismic evaluation to be completed.

Public Benefit
Planned Community applications are typically associated with some form of public benefit.

While the proposed work is relatively minor and preservation of the Category 1 historic resource provides an intrinsic benefit to the city, the owner is also interested in creating a publicly accessible open space at the corner of Cowper Street and Homer Avenue. A city walking tour in June included 12 other privately owned public open spaces, termed POPOS by local artist Lisa Van Dusen.3 As part of a formal application, the owner has indicated an interest 3 The Walking Tour of Palo Alto’s Privately Owned Public Open Spaces was supported in part by the ArtLift Grants Program through the City of Palo Alto Public Art Program. More information about this event is available online:
https://www.paloalto.gov/Events-Directory/Community-Services/Walking-Tour-of-Palo-Alto%E2%80%99sPrivately-Owned-Public-Open-Spaces Item 12
Item 12 Staff Report
Item 12: Staff Report Pg. 6 Packet Pg. 198 of 342
in memorializing this benefit to include a management and maintenance plan that would address responsibilities related to access, maintenance, litter and other measures associated with the publicly accessible space. Public access to the property in the manner described by the applicant is not currently a planned community benefit associated with the current PC ordinance.

POLICY IMPLICATIONS
Preliminary Review are intended to solicit early feedback on proposed projects and, like all study sessions, cannot result in any formal action. If accepted on the consent calendar, the Council is acknowledging the applicant’s intent to file a Comprehensive Plan amendment to advance the conceptual project. If a formal application is submitted, additional analysis would be required to evaluate the proposed public space and potential impacts to historic resources.

Although the City’s historic preservation regulations primarily address exterior alterations, the proposed interior work is relevant to the property’s National Register listing. If sufficiently extensive, the alterations could affect the property’s ability to convey its historic significance and jeopardize its continued National Register status. The interior alterations would therefore be evaluated for consistency with the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for Rehabilitation and designed to retain significant historic spaces and features to the greatest extent feasible.

Should the Comprehensive Plan amendment ultimately not be adopted, the project may still proceed with rehabilitation and other improvements. However, the scope would need to change to remove floor area addition.

FISCAL/RESOURCE IMPACT
Processing of this prescreening and any future formal application are funded by applicant fees.

Any formal application would also be subject to impact fees to address impacts of the proposed development on public services and infrastructure. Any work related to a citywide POPOS initiative is currently unfunded and would advance only as available resources allow.

STAKEHOLDER ENGAGEMENT
The Palo Alto Municipal Code requires notice of this public hearing be published in a local paper and mailed to owners and occupants of property within 600 feet of the subject property at least ten days in advance. Notice of a public hearing for this project was published in the Daily Post and postcard mailing occurred on September 18, 2026, which is 10 days in advance of the meeting.

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The Preliminary Review process is not considered a project in accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act and therefore not subject to environmental review. . A review in accordance with CEQA would be initiated with the formal filing of a development application.

PROJECT ZONING/LOCATION
Project Location:

The project is located in the 'Downtown Commercial (CD) District with a PC overlay, and fronted by public strees on three sides: Cowper Street to the north, Forest Avenue to the west and Downing Lane to the south.

Ordinance:

Zoned CD-C(P).

Required Setbacks: per PC-3007

This project proposes a modest rear and side L-shaped addition to an existing Category 1 Queen Anne Victorian in Palo Alto (built in 1894), rehabilitating the property for continued office use while preserving its historic character as a designated local landmark. The new floor area provides code‑compliant, functional workspace that allows the building to remain viable in contemporary professional use, consistent with the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards for Rehabilitation.

PROJECT DESCRIPTION

HISTORICAL CONTEXT
Historic Context
The existing building is a late‑19th‑century wood‑frame Queen Anne Victorian, a style noted in Palo Alto materials for its complex roof forms, asymmetrical massing, and prominent corner elements. As a Category 1 resource, the property is recognized as having the highest level of historic significance locally, and exterior changes are subject to review by the Historic Resources Board.

DESIGN APPROACH
The addition is located on the rear and secondary side elevations, with limited visibility from the public way, to maintain the primacy of the historic street‑facing facades. Massing, ridge heights, and roof forms are calibrated to remain subordinate to the original Queen Anne volume while echoing its proportions and general vertical emphasis. The cladding, trim, and foundation treatment are drawn from the same family of painted wood materials as the landmark structure, but detailing, fenestration groupings, and glazing patterns are intentionally simplified to clearly differentiate the new work as a product of its own time, consistent with Standards 9 and 10.

Preservation of Historic Fabric
Work on the historic portion of the building is limited to repair and selective replacement in kind of deteriorated elements, following the hierarchy of preserving existing materials wherever feasible. Character‑defining features of the Queen Anne, including its primary roof forms, corner massing, and street‑facing ornament, are retained and remain visually dominant when viewed from the public realm.

COMMINUTY BENEFIT AND PUBLIC VALUE
In addition to preservation and adaptive reuse, the project provides a package of community benefits centered on public access, sustainability, and landscape education. These benefits include public access to a parklet area, installation of EV charging infrastructure, use of highefficiency building systems, and creation of a garden area planted with indigenous species and accompanied by interpretive signage. The parklet will provide a publicly accessible outdoor amenity associated with the site, while the EV charging and efficient building systems will support cleaner transportation and improved environmental performance. The indigenous garden, envisioned as a small educational landscape similar in spirit to Gambrel Gardens, will offer informational signage about the plantings and their ecological value, extending the project’s benefit beyond the property itself.

CONCLUSION
Overall, the addition is designed to be compatible yet clearly differentiated in accordance with the Secretary of the Interior’s Standards, maintaining the landmark Queen Anne as the primary historic artifact on the site. By pairing carefully calibrated new construction with community‑oriented benefits and long‑term stewardship, the project supports the continued viability of a significant historic resource while contributing to the broader community goals identified in local policy documents.

KEY PHOTO PLAN
The Downing House shares diverse architectural styles and uses at the Forest/Cowper intersection:
from a 13-story apartment complex, to a mixed-use 3-story building to a historic bed-andbreakfast built in 1896.

Public viewing corridors of the Downing House will remain virtually untouched as no additional square footage is being proposed on either of these elevations.

The Downing House shares diverse architectural styles and uses at the Forest/Cowper intersection: from a 13-story apartment complex, to a mixed-use 3-story building to a historic bread-and-breakfast inn built in 1896.

Public viewing corridors of the Downing House will remain virtually untouched as no additional square footage is being proposed on either of these elevations.

Staff Report
From: City Manager
Report Type: CONSENT CALENDAR
Lead Department: Planning and Development Services
Meeting Date: September 28, 2026
Report #:2609-6723
TITLE
QUASI-JUDICIAL. 3200 Park/340 Portage: Final Map and Street Naming [26PLN-00009]: Request for a Final Map to Subdivide One Existing 3.92-Acre Parcel for Condominium Purposes, Consistent with the Approved Development Agreement, and to Name the New Private Streets.

Zone District: PC 5597. CEQA Status: Council Adopted Resolution 10123 Certifying the EIR for the Project on September 12, 2023 (SCH # 2021120444).

RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that City Council:

1. Approve Phase 2 of the final subdivision map (Attachment B), consistent with the approved Vesting Tentative Map, for the previously approved project at 3200 Park Boulevard, pursuant to Palo Alto Municipal Code (PAMC) Section 21.16 and the Subdivision Map Act; and

2. Approve the private street names Gondolier Lane, Snow Peak Lane, Bohemian Court, and Calico Court recommended by the Palo Alto Historical Association (PAHA) for the four new private streets as shown on the Final Map.

BACKGROUND
In September 2023, Council approved the Development Agreement between the City and Sobrato Organization, subsequently amending the site’s Comprehensive Plan land use designation; rezoning the site into five Planned Community Zone Districts based on the boundaries of the resulting parcels set forth in the Vesting Tentative Map; and approving the Vesting Tentative Map in accordance with Record of Land Use Action 2023-03 (Attachment A).

Final Map Application and Process
The Final Map is the second of a two-part subdivision mapping process; the first part is approval of a Tentative Map or Vesting Tentative Map. As detailed in the November 17, 2025, staff report to Council, and in the approved Development Agreement, the Final Map for this project is to be completed in two phases. On April 21, 2025, Sobrato Organization filed phase one of the Final Map application, which Council approved on November 17, 2025. The first phase included merging and subdividing 11 existing parcels (including one grant deed) totaling 14.65 Item 13
Item 13 Staff Report
Item 13: Staff Report Pg. 1 Packet Pg. 223 of 342
acres to create five resulting parcels, consistent with the approved Vesting Tentative Map and Development Agreement. This second phase of the Final Map includes the condominium subdivision of the recently created Townhome Parcel as well as delineation of the streets internal to the townhome parcel.

The Final Map is the official, legal document that is recorded with the County that establishes the property lines, streets, and easements within the subdivision. The Final Map must be prepared under the direction of a registered civil engineer or a licensed land surveyor and be based on a survey. Approval of a Final Map is ministerial if the Final Map is in substantial compliance with the approved Vesting Tentative Map and the subdivider has satisfied the conditions of approval attached to the tentative map. While many cities delegate approval of the Final Map to the City Engineer, under PAMC Section 21.16.240, the Palo Alto City Council is responsible for the approval.

ANALYSIS
The Final Map is the document containing the statements, acknowledgements, and agreements from the property owner, surveyor, City officials and beneficiaries that the Final Map is in conformance with all applicable regulations and the approved Vesting Tentative Map. The proposed subdivision includes private streets and related easements for vehicular access between parcels and utility easements.

In accordance with City’s Street Naming policy (Resolution 5739) and Condition of Approval 5 in Section 7 of the approved Record of Land Use Action for the project (Attachment A), the Palo Alto Street Naming Committee selected, and the Palo Alto Historical Association (PAHA) board voted on proposed street names for the new private streets. The Street Naming Committee recommended the names Gondolier, Snow Peak, Bohemian, and Calico as they are all brand names used by the Bayside Canning Company, the historic cannery that previously operated on the site. PAHA concurred with the proposed street name. The proposed street names for the project site are Gondolier Lane, Snow Peak Lane, Bohemian Court, and Calico Court. These recommended names are now forwarded to Council for approval, as reflected on the Final Map.

FISCAL/RESOURCE IMPACT
Fees for processing of the Final Map have been paid by Dividend Housing, the applicant, in accordance with the adopted municipal fee schedule. This month Dividend purchased the subject parcel for this condominium subdivision from Sobrato Organization. In accordance with the property purchase agreements, Dividend shall be responsible for payment of the associated development impact fees at final occupancy for each respective townhome. Impact fees associated with the townhome development are currently estimated at $883,115.71 in addition to the public art in-lieu fees that will be collected for the townhomes. This shall be assessed pro rata at the time of delivery of the individual townhomes if delivery for occupancy is phased. In addition, at the time of occupancy of the townhomes, payment of the $5 million public benefits fee shall be paid in accordance with the Development Agreement and may be used toward the Item 13
Item 13 Staff Report
Item 13: Staff Report Pg. 2 Packet Pg. 224 of 342
proposed improvement of the City dedication parcel. Similar to the impact fees, the $5 million shall be paid pro-rata if occupancy of the townhomes is phased. The impact fees do not include park fees, parkland dedication fees, housing impact fees, nor housing in-lieu fees. Those fees are addressed through the dedication of a 3.25-acre parcel to the City and the $5 million to be paid at the time of occupancy of the townhomes.

STAKEHOLDER ENGAGEMENT
The Palo Alto Municipal Code requires notice of this public hearing to be published in a local paper at least ten days in advance. Notice of a public hearing for this project was published in the Daily Post on June 4, 2026, which is 10 days in advance of the meeting. At the time of this staff report, staff has not received any public comments on the final map or street naming.

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The project was previously evaluated in accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act and Council certified the Environmental Impact Report for this project, making overriding considerations, on September 12, 2023, through adoption of Resolution 10123. The proposed action to record the Final Map is ministerial if the map is found to be in substantial conformance with the previously approved Vesting Tentative Map. That said, the recordation of the Final Map and authorization to complete the necessary documents for conveyance of the property is consistent with the approved Development Agreement and associated EIR.
