Item #2

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
May 20, 2025
City Manager
TITLE: REVIEW AND CONSIDER THE CITY'S LEGISLATIVE FRAMEWORK WITH THE 2025-2026 FOCUS AREAS, ESTABLISH THE CITY'S LEGISLATIVE POSITIONS

ON SELECTED BILLS, AND REQUEST CITY STAFF MONITOR LEGISLATION THROUGHOUT THE 2025-2026 LEGISLATIVE SESSION

SUMMARY
The Legislative Framework (Attachment 1) guides the City's response to pending state and federal legislation. The framework includes guiding principles, goals, and strategies that guide advocacy efforts on behalf of the City's interests. This framework establishes biennial focus areas to guide the City's legislative positions.

The City Council Legislative Subcommittee (Councilmember Testa and Councilmember Gaidos) met on April 29, 2025, to review and discuss the City's Legislative Framework with the proposed 2025-2026 Focus Areas, and discuss and recommend positions on selected bills.

RECOMMENDATION
Review and consider the City's legislative framework with the 2025-2026 focus areas, establish the City's legislative positions on selected bills, and request City staff monitor legislation throughout the 2025-2026 legislative session

BACKGROUND
In 2016, the City Council adopted an inaugural Legislative Platform that outlined guiding principles, goals, and strategies, with a recommendation for federal, state, and local priorities as a foundation for recommendations on positions on pending legislation. In 2018, to better position the City's advocacy efforts, the 2016 Legislative Platform was updated into a Legislative Framework with recommended annual legislative focus areas. Each year since then, the City Council Legislative Subcommittee has reviewed and discussed state and federal legislation and determined policy positions for recommendation to the City Council.

DISCUSSION
On April 29, 2025, the City Council Legislative Subcommittee met and reviewed the City's Legislative Framework and proposed 2025-2026 Focus Areas, which together will serve as a policy document to guide the City's advocacy efforts and assist staff in evaluating legislation and policy issues. The Legislative Framework includes guiding principles that represent the City's overall legislative interests.

Transition to a Two-Year Legislative Framework
Staff recommended, and the subcommittee endorsed, transitioning to a two-year Legislative Framework cycle aligned with the State's two-year legislative session, for the calendar years

Page 13 of 682 ends
Page 2 of 4 ends

2025 and 2026. This approach mirrors the recent change adopted by the Tri-Valley Cities (TVC) Coalition and provides several benefits:

1. Better alignment with the State's legislative calendar

2. Improved efficiency in tracking bills across the full legislative cycle

3. Reduced administrative overhead in framework updates

4. Consistency with the City's regional partners' approach.

The 2025-2026 Legislative Focus Areas were developed by considering the current political landscape at the federal and state level in addition to current regional and local issues; this does not preclude the City from responding to any legislation outside these focus areas. Staff will prepare position letters for the Mayor's signature as needed throughout the legislative session to respond to any bills of concern if in alignment with the City's adopted Legislative Framework.

Legislative Advocacy Discussion Update
At the April 29, 2025, City Council Legislative Subcommittee meeting, subcommittee members discussed the tracking of Pleasanton-specific legislative priorities that may not align with the broader Tri-Valley Cities Coalition focus. The subcommittee expressed interest in evaluating options for Pleasanton-specific legislative advocacy and discussed the possibility of reconsidering the allocation of resources between regional and city-specific advocacy efforts.

Staff will provide additional information on legislative advocacy options within the current budgeted resources as a topic of future City Council consideration.

The subcommittee and staff recommend the following focus areas for 2025-2026. An overarching theme for each focus area is the City's ability to retain local control and decisionmaking.

Housing
• Support, promote, and protect affordability in the housing stock • Support a balanced approach to housing solutions that consider housing, jobs and transportation together
• Support protection of development impact fees
• Support the preservation of California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) provisions that protect the environment and local control.

Fiscal Sustainability
• Oppose local, regional, state or federal mandates that are unfunded or partially funded • Oppose measures that seek to limit the City's ability to adopt revenue measures • Support effective options for cities to address unfunded pension liabilities that will ensure that cities remain financially stable and are able to provide services for their residents
• Support an update to the local government tax structure to respond to the new ecommerce that ensures equity of sales tax allocations to cities

Page 14 of 682 ends
Page 3 of 4 ends

• Support state funding to implement SB 1383: The Short-Lived Climate Pollutants bill.

Pleasanton's Infrastructure and the Environment
• Support efforts to address PFAS in drinking water and secure funding for treatment • Support efforts to secure funding for a regional recycled water project • Support efforts to secure funding to address water supply, sewer, storm water, flood control, and development of new infrastructure
• Support efforts to secure funding for programs that help meet the City's Climate Action Plan (CAP 2.0) and other sustainability goals.

Wildfire and Emergency Preparedness (New Focus Area)
• Support efforts that provide funding to local agencies for disaster preparedness, evacuation planning, fire suppression and prevention, and rescue emergency medical services
• Support measures that provide resources and incentives for the development of defensible space and home-hardening efforts
• Support legislation and regulatory activities that increase the availability and affordability of homeowners and renters insurance for properties located within areas of increased risk of wildfire
• Support legislation that streamlines regulatory requirements, such as the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), for wildfire prevention and other emergency preparedness projects; any such streamlining should be narrowly tailored and clarified in the CEQA Guidelines.

The subcommittee reviewed numerous bills and is recommending adoption of positions on the 18 bills as shown in Attachment 2 and in the summary overview provided in Table 1 below.

Staff will actively work on key bills from each focus area through regional partnerships and organizational memberships during this legislative session, including providing comments and suggested amendments to bill authors and various legislative committees as appropriate.

Infrastructure, Public Facilities, and Sustainability, and Building a Community Where Everyone Belongs: Livability and Community Development.

TRI-VALLEY CITIES
Legislative Framework
2025-26

Page 25 of 682 ends

TRI-VALLEY CITIES VALUES STATEMENT
The Tri-Valley Cities of Dublin, Livermore, Pleasanton, San Ramon, and the Town of Danville value regional leadership, innovation, collaboration, and problem solving to maintain and improve the quality of life for Tri-Valley residents, provide a vibrant climate for businesses, and enable continued opportunities for public and private investment within the region.

Each City and Town provides a unique perspective on how to meet the needs of their residents and businesses. The Cities and Town agree to respect the individuality of each community and are committed to open and honest communication with a goal of building consensus and a united approach to advocacy for solutions that will serve the residents and businesses of the Tri-Valley.

TRI-VALLEY CITIES LEGISLATIVE FRAMEWORK
The Tri-Valley Cities Legislative Framework seeks to inform all levels of governmental interaction (e.g., federal, state, regional, local) regarding legislation, policies, and programs that have a direct impact on the region. The TVC has defined Legislative Focus Areas which have an overarching objective to retain and promote local control and decisionmaking as it relates to the implementation of laws and regulations and to have the ability to integrate them in a manner that meets the unique needs of each community. The TVC will advocate together to achieve outcomes benefiting the region in each of these Focus Areas.

Transportation and Infrastructure
Residents of the Tri-Valley region are subject to some of the heaviest commutes in the Bay Area and are impacted by the heavy flow of traffic along the region’s freeways, which often spills over onto the local surface streets as commuters pursue alternatives to their commute through the Tri-Valley. A key objective of the region is to reduce congestion on the region’s freeways, and to increase mobility of goods and people through the Tri-Valley with continued financial investment in transportation infrastructure: developing alternative modes of transportation, modernization of transportation corridors, and creation, modernization, and expansion of rail systems. The TVC also seeks to partner on other significant nontransportation infrastructure projects, especially those with regional and multi-regional benefits.

Climate, Environment, and Health
The TVC seeks to work collaboratively with federal, state, and regional partners to address the new landscape of year-round wildfires, air quality, public safety power shutoffs, water quality (including PFAS/PFOS contaminants) and supply issues, as well as waste and recycling mandates. The TVC will advocate for increasing financial and technical support in these areas, as well as for investment in key infrastructure at all levels of government.

Page 26 of 682 ends

2 | Page
Public Safety
The TVC prides itself on providing the highest quality of life for its residents, businesses, workers, and visitors alike – a critical part of which is ensuring the basic right to safety, without fear of harm to oneself or one’s property. As such, the coalition will advocate for reasonable public safety reforms, especially with regard to retail theft, burglary, assault, insurance availability, and emergency preparedness all while maintaining a lens of equity.

Economic Development
The Tri-Valley region is an innovation hub that spurs job growth, sustains a healthy economy, and provides a high quality of life for residents and business. Key objectives are developing a healthy workforce; and supporting innovation, capacity building, economic stimulus, and growth in the region.

Affordable Housing and Homelessness
The TVC supports balanced solutions which consider housing, jobs, and transportation together and seeks to support, promote, protect, and increase affordability in the region’s housing stock. Key objectives are to work with federal, state, and regional partners to provide funding for affordable housing through a variety of programs and options and to work to address barriers to building housing at Very Low, Low, and Moderate income levels. TVC also remains committed to mitigating and eliminating homelessness, including working with partners at all levels of government to address the root causes of housing insecurity and homelessness.

Mental Health
The TVC recognizes that social services are vital to supporting residents and providing crucial safety net services in our region. While the TVC cities do not provide direct delivery of social services, the Cities seek to work together to support local non-profits and organizations that do provide these services, and advocate together for these vital resources and services from all levels of government. Mental health support is a growing need in our region, and the TVC seeks to advocate for the resources to meet the needs of all our residents.

Fiscal Sustainability and General Governance
Fiscal sustainability is fundamental to the long-term stability and effectiveness of all levels of government. TVC is committed to advocating for policies that safeguard local government revenues, prevent the imposition of unfunded mandates, and uphold financial sustainability. TVC also champions reforms that enhance fiscal transparency, operational efficiency, and regulatory accountability. This includes advocating for accessible funding mechanisms, responsible labor and employee relations policies, and streamlined regulatory frameworks that reduce unnecessary burdens on local governments. Additionally, TVC prioritizes strengthening intergovernmental collaboration and governance structures to promote efficiency, equity, and resilience in public administration PAGE

Mitigation Fee Act:
mitigating vehicular
traffic impacts
Current law requires a local agency that imposes a fee on a housing development for the purpose of mitigating vehicular traffic impacts to set the rate for that fee to reflect a lower rate of automobile trip generation associated with such housing developments in comparison with housing developments
without prescribed characteristics, unless the local agency adopts findings after a public hearing establishing that the housing development, even with those characteristics, would not generate fewer automobile trips than a housing
development without those specified characteristics. For purposes of these provisions, current law specifies one of those characteristics is that the housing development provides either the minimum number of parking spaces required by the local ordinance, or no more than one onsite parking space for zero- to 2-bedroom units, and 2 onsite parking spaces for 3 or more bedroom units, whichever is less. For purposes of a local agency setting the rate for a mitigating vehicular traffic impacts fee, this bill would delete the provision about adopting findings after a public hearing and would, instead, require the rate for housing developments that satisfy those specified characteristics be at least 50% less than the rate for housing developments without all of those characteristics. With regard to the above-described characteristic, the bill would, instead, specify that the housing development provides no more than one onsite parking space for zero- to 2-bedroom units, and 2 onsite parking spaces for 3 or more bedroom units.

City Manager
TITLE: ADOPT A RESOLUTION ACCEPTING $85,000 IN TRANSPORTATION FUND

FOR CLEAN AIR GRANT FUNDS FOR THE PLEASANTON CITYWIDE TRIP

REDUCTION PROGRAM FROM ALAMEDA COUNTY TRANSPORTATION
COMMISSION FOR FY 2024/25 AND FY 2025/26

SUMMARY
The Transportation Fund for Clean Air (TFCA) County Program Manager (CPM) Fund is a local funding source of the Bay Area Air Quality Management District (Air District). As the TFCA County Program Manager for Alameda County, the Alameda County Transportation Commission (CTC) is responsible for programming 40 percent of the $4.00 vehicle registration fee collected in Alameda County for this program. Through Alameda CTC’s TFCA distribution formula, further detailed in Alameda CTC’s TFCA Program Guidelines, 70 percent of annual funding is available to the cities and county, and 30 percent is available for transit-related projects.

TFCA-eligible projects are to result in the reduction of motor vehicle emissions. In general, eligible projects are those that conform to the provisions of the Alameda CTC Comprehensive Investment Plan (CIP) and the TFCA Program Guidelines. Acceptance of this grant would support the City’s ongoing citywide trip reduction program for FY 2024/25 and 2025/26. The program aims to reduce school, commuter, and residential car trips by offering alternative travel mode education, information and incentives.

RECOMMENDATION
Adopt a Resolution accepting $85,000 in Transportation Fund for Clean Air Grant Funds for the Pleasanton Citywide Trip Reduction Program from Alameda County Transportation Commission for FY 2024/25 and FY 2025/26.

The City has provided a citywide trip reduction program since the early 1990s under the Air District’s Regulation 13, Rule 1. When the regulation was rescinded in the 2000s, the City continued its efforts on a voluntary basis and applied for and received TFCA funding, administered by the Alameda CTC. The program consists of employer and residential programs, including Bike to Wherever Days and bike safety education programs. Schoolbased programs include Rides to School promotions such as Try Transit, Walk & Bike to School Days, bike helmet exchange programs, and other events, incentives, and safety education.

In FYs 2022/23 and 2023/24, the City was awarded $58,000 in TFCA funding. City in-kind support primarily consists of staff time to implement the programming. The City has applied for and received these grant funds for many years.

DISCUSSION
If approved, a resolution to accept the FY 2024/25 and FY 2025/26 TFCA grant funding (Attachment 1), would support Pleasanton’s trip reduction program goal to increase awareness and use of commute modes including walking, biking, carpooling and public transit, thus reducing vehicular traffic and motor vehicle emissions. Similarly for schools, the program promotes walking, biking, carpooling, and public transit use as feasible school travel modes.

EQUITY AND SUSTAINABILITY
By providing programs, events, and incentives, employers and residents can be better informed about citywide initiatives. This program goal addresses the City's Climate Action Plan

2.0 action Items E4 – Regional transit support, P10 – Increase transit ridership, and S4 – VMT reduction for K-12 activities.

OUTREACH
No outreach was conducted for this item, as acceptance of this grant is a routine matter of City business.

STRATEGIC PLAN ALIGNMENT
Approval of this action advances ONE Pleasanton's citywide strategic goal of Investing in Our Environment - Strategy 6 to continue to implement priority items from the Climate Action Plan

2.0 (CAP) to lead by example in environmental sustainability.

FISCAL IMPACT
The amount awarded is higher than the annual amount of $30,000 budgeted in the Transportation Demand Management program account (00132300) for FY 2024/25 and FY 2025/26 as it includes $50,500 in City in-kind general fund support (i.e., staff time) for Pleasanton’s citywide trip reduction program. The FY 2025/26 budget will be updated as part of the mid-year budget review.

A. The voters of Alameda County, pursuant to the provisions of the Bay Area County Traffic and Transportation Funding Act, Public Utilities Code Section 131000, et seq., approved Measure B at the General Election held in November 1986, authorizing the collection of a one-half cent transaction and use tax over a fifteen (15)-year period to address major transportation needs and congestion in Alameda County and giving Alameda County Transportation Authority (“ACTA”) the responsibility for the administration of the proceeds of the tax. The proceeds from the 1986 Measure B tax have been and continue to be used to pay for investments as outlined in the 1986 Alameda County Transportation Expenditure Plan (“1986 TEP”), as it may be amended. Although collection of the 1986 Measure B tax ceased in 2002, capital projects funded wholly or in part by 1986 Measure B funds are still being delivered using these funds.

B. The voters of Alameda County, pursuant to the provisions of the Local Transportation Authority and Improvement Act, Public Utilities Code Section 180000, et seq., approved the reauthorization of Measure B at the General Election held on November 7, 2000, authorizing the collection of a one-half cent transaction and use tax to be collected for twenty (20) years beginning April 1, 2002 and giving Alameda County Transportation Improvement Authority (“ACTIA”) responsibility for the administration of the proceeds of the tax.. The proceeds from the 2000 Measure B tax have been and continue to be used to pay for investments as outlined in the 2000 Alameda County Transportation Expenditure Plan (“2000 TEP”), as it may be amended.

Vehicles subject to the VRF include all motorized vehicles, including passenger cars, light-duty trucks, medium-duty trucks, heavy-duty trucks, buses of all sizes, motorcycles, and motorized camper homes, unless vehicles are expressly exempted from the payment of the VRF.

D. By resolutions adopted by the ACTA and ACTIA Boards on June 24, 2010, all of ACTA’s functions and responsibilities were assigned to, and accepted by, ACTIA. On that same date, the ACTIA and ACCMA Boards took the final actions to create ALAMEDA CTC, a joint powers authority with all responsibilities of ACTIA and ACCMA. Pursuant to resolutions adopted by the ACTIA and ACCMA Boards and the Commission of ALAMEDA CTC, ACCMA and ACTIA were terminated as of the close of business on February 29, 2012, with ALAMEDA CTC designated as the successor entity. All of its predecessors’ functions and responsibilities have been assigned to, and accepted by, ALAMEDA CTC.

The proceeds from the 2014 Measure BB will be used to pay for investments as outlined in the 2014 Alameda County Transportation Expenditure Plan (“2014 TEP”), as it may be amended.

F. As the Transportation Fund for Clean Air (“TFCA”) Program Manager in Alameda County, ALAMEDA CTC annually programs 40 percent of the TFCA funds collected in Alameda County. ALAMEDA CTC receives these funds from the Bay Area Air Quality Management District (“BAAQMD”), and then distributes these funds on a reimbursement basis to eligible project sponsors.

G. ALAMEDA CTC is continuing the implementation of the CMA Exchange Program, originally established by the ACCMA, for the purpose of providing local or otherwise unrestricted funds to ALAMEDA CTC for use in projects and programs adopted into the CMA Transportation Improvement Program (“CMA TIP”) by ALAMEDA CTC.

9. All correspondence and communications will contain ALAMEDA CTC project number and name for PROJECT in a clearly identifiable location. For projects with TFCA funds obligated by this AGREEMENT, all correspondence and communications will also contain the TFCA project number as identified in Appendix G: Transportation Fund for Clean Air Policies and Requirements.

10. ALAMEDA CTC reserves the right to conduct technical and financial audits of PROJECT work and records when determined to be necessary or appropriate and PROJECT SPONSOR agrees, and shall require its contractors and subcontractors to agree, to cooperate with ALAMEDA CTC by making all appropriate and relevant PROJECT records promptly available for audit and copying.

11. PROJECT costs incurred by PROJECT SPONSOR are only eligible for reimbursement on a prorated basis unless specifically provided for in Appendix A: Project Control Information, and PROJECT SPONSOR is expected to concurrently seek reimbursement from the other sources shown in Project A: Project Control Information. Pro-rated basis, as used herein, equals the amount of ALAMEDA CTC ADMINISTERED FUNDS obligated by this AGREEMENT to a phase, divided by the total funding for the phase, as shown in Appendix A: Project Control Information. For any Request for Reimbursement which includes such expenditures, PROJECT SPONSOR shall (i) report the total expenditures during the reimbursement period, (ii) indicate the percentage of the total expenditures for the phase expected to be funded by ALAMEDA CTC ADMINISTERED FUNDS obligated by this AGREEMENT, and (iii) request reimbursement for the dollar amount which equals the product of such total expenditures and such percentage.

12. ALAMEDA CTC approval of PROJECT SPONSOR submitted Requests for Reimbursement will be contingent on the submittal of progress reports and deliverables by PROJECT SPONSOR as required by this AGREEMENT. In the event that progress reports and deliverables are not complete and current, approval of Requests for Reimbursement shall be withheld until an acceptable remedy has been implemented and approved by ALAMEDA CTC. If PROJECT SPONSOR fails to submit the required deliverables or otherwise fails to meet the reporting and invoicing requirements of this AGREEMENT, ALAMEDA CTC may deobligate funds from the PROJECT and this AGREEMENT. Not less than thirty (30) days prior to the effective date of any such action, ALAMEDA CTC will endeavor to notify PROJECT SPONSOR in writing that the required deliverables, invoicing and reporting is overdue.

13. Request for Reimbursements submitted after the Agreement Expiration Date identified in Appendix B: Alameda CTC Administered Funds Obligated by this AGREEMENT will be ineligible for reimbursement by ALAMEDA CTC unless an exception is requested by the PROJECT SPONSOR no less than sixty (60) days before the Agreement Expiration Date, and the exception is approved by ALAMEDA CTC.

ALAMEDA CTC will deobligate any remaining ALAMEDA CTC ADMINISTERED FUNDS from PROJECT and this AGREEMENT.

14. Each Right-of-Way transaction which is funded either wholly or in part with ALAMEDA CTC ADMINISTERED FUNDS shall be subject to repayment or reimbursement to ALAMEDA CTC under ALAMEDA CTC Policies in effect as of the effective date of this AGREEMENT, irrespective of the party holding title to the real estate which is the subject of the Right-of-Way transaction in question. The parties agree that Section III.15(a) through Section III.15(f), the provisions of which are intended to provide further detail regarding the application of such Policies, shall govern the extent to which such repayment is required and the conditions applicable to any such repayment. If such Policies are amended after the effective date of this AGREEMENT by ALAMEDA CTC, the PROJECT SPONSOR and ALAMEDA CTC shall execute an amendment to this AGREEMENT which references the revised Policies.

15. For the purposes of the following provisions, “ALAMEDA CTC Share” shall mean the percentage share of the original property purchase price funded by ALAMEDA CTC ADMINISTERED FUNDS (i.e., if the purchase was fully funded by ALAMEDA CTC ADMINISTERED FUNDS, ALAMEDA CTC Share shall equal 100%); any appraisal required under Section III.15(a) and Section III.15(f) only, shall be conducted at no cost to ALAMEDA CTC; “Fair Market Value” of a given property shall mean the net proceeds from the sale of such property if such sale occurs in an open market transaction or by auction, or the value of the property determined by an independent third-party appraisal of the property if some or all of the property is retained by PROJECT SPONSOR or otherwise transferred to any other party without an auction or open market transaction; and “CPI” means the Consumer Price Index, All Items for All Urban Consumers, San FranciscoOakland, San Jose, CA. a. If any property is acquired for the PROJECT using ALAMEDA CTC ADMINISTERED FUNDS to finance some or all of the acquisition, and the PROJECT is cancelled or otherwise does not begin construction within five (5) years after the effective date of AGREEMENT (as such deadline may be extended by agreement between the parties hereto), then PROJECT SPONSOR shall, within one (1) year after such cancellation decision or the expiration of such five (5) year period, reimburse ALAMEDA CTC for the greater of the following:

ALAMEDA CTC Share of the property’s Fair Market Value or the full amount of ALAMEDA CTC ADMINISTERED FUNDS used to acquire the property, as escalated by the increase in the CPI during the most recent period for which CPI data is available which is equal in length to the period between the date ALAMEDA CTC ADMINISTERED FUNDS were paid to PROJECT SPONSOR and the date reimbursement is made to ALAMEDA CTC. b. If any property is acquired for the PROJECT using ALAMEDA CTC ADMINISTERED FUNDS to finance some or all of the acquisition and only a portion of the acquired property is required for the PROJECT, and if the PROJECT begins construction within five (5) years after the effective date of this AGREEMENT (as such deadline may be extended by agreement between the parties hereto), then PROJECT SPONSOR shall, within one (1) year Docusign Envelope ID: B0F13DA5-E6D2-420E-BD8C-048D0AAD0904

after PROJECT completion, reimburse ALAMEDA CTC for ALAMEDA CTC Share of the Fair Market Value of any property determined to be “excess property”. c. If the PROJECT begins construction within five (5) years after the effective date of this AGREEMENT (as such deadline may be extended by agreement between the parties hereto), then except as provided in subparagraph (d) below, no reimbursement is due with respect to any property interest acquired for the project using ALAMEDA CTC ADMINISTERED FUNDS if the entirety of the acquired property is required for the PROJECT. d. If PROJECT SPONSOR anticipates receiving net revenues (i.e., rental or other income generated by the property, less reasonable costs for insurance, maintenance and related items) from any property acquired using ALAMEDA CTC ADMINISTERED FUNDS, PROJECT SPONSOR shall notify ALAMEDA CTC on how PROJECT SPONSOR will use such revenue to offset other project costs, and document such revenue separately in project reimbursement requests.
e. If PROJECT is suspended, PROJECT SPONSOR shall pay all property management costs. f. Property that is required for the PROJECT and acquired wholly or in part with ALAMEDA CTC ADMINISTERED FUNDS shall be available for PROJECT construction within ten (10) years of ALAMEDA CTC reimbursement to the PROJECT SPONSOR. If, after ten (10) years, PROJECT has not been completed, PROJECT SPONSOR shall reimburse ALAMEDA CTC Share of the fair market value of the property, based on the net proceeds from the sale of the property or an appraisal of the property conducted at no cost to ALAMEDA CTC, within one (1) year after the expiration of this ten (10) year period.

16. If condemnation procedures are required to obtain possession to Right-of-Way, ALAMEDA CTC will consider the required deposit as an eligible cost and reimburse the PROJECT SPONSOR upon request.

PROJECT SPONSOR shall submit documentation of the final order of condemnation settlement within ninety (90) days after the date of the court recording of the final order of condemnation. If the amount of ALAMEDA CTC reimbursement to the PROJECT SPONSOR is higher than ALAMEDA CTC Share of the amount of settlement in the final order of condemnation, the PROJECT SPONSOR shall pay ALAMEDA CTC the difference between the amount reimbursed and ALAMEDA CTC Share of the amount settled plus ALAMEDA CTC Share of the interest accrued to the deposit account within one (1) year of the final order of condemnation.

17. PROJECT SPONSOR shall not initiate condemnation of any property until full funding for the construction of the PROJECT has been secured.

18. Reimbursement to PROJECT SPONSOR by ALAMEDA CTC for PROJECT Right-of-Way is limited to the following (and net of any relocation payments provided by other sources):

APPENDIX A-2

PROJECT SCOPE DETAIL BY PHASE
The ALAMEDA CTC ADMINISTERED FUNDS obligated by this AGREEMENT are to support the project phase(s) identified and described below:

OPERATIONS
• ALAMEDA CTC funds obligated in this AGREEMENT are for the operations of the Pleasanton Trip Reduction Program, as described in Appendix A-1, for two fiscal years, FYs 2024-25 & 2025-26.

Eligible activities include the purchase of incentives for program participants, including transit tickets, the design and production of program brochures and other promotional materials, and data collection/surveys.
• TFCA funds are to be used for trip reduction activities that exceed those required by any law, rule or ordinance. For employer-based programs, this means that TFCA funds may not be used to fund activities that provide and/or subsidize benefits that an employer is already required to provide through the Bay Area Commuter Benefits Program.
• TFCA funds in this AGREEMENT cannot be used to fund activities that are part of programs that already receive BAAQMD TFCA funds, such as Bike East Bay’s Bike to Wherever Day and Alameda CTC’s Countywide Transportation Demand Management (TDM) Program. For example, Alameda CTC’s Countywide TDM program contributes to a certain number of Bike Safety Education classes provided by Bike East Bay. Additionally, Bike East Bay receives funding directly from BAAQMD for Bike to Wherever Day promotion. Costs for activities that are separate from or in addition to the BAAQMD TFCA-funded scope of those programs would be eligible for reimbursement under this AGREEMENT.
 The annual targets for each program component include:

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
May 20, 2025
Community Development
TITLE: REVIEW PROPOSALS AND AWARD A MAINTENANCE SERVICES AGREEMENT TO ST. FRANCIS ELECTRIC FOR TRAFFIC SIGNAL
MAINTENANCE AND EMERGENCY REPAIR SERVICES FOR A NOT-TOEXCEED ANNUAL AMOUNT OF $1,000,000, FOR AN INITIAL TWO-YEAR TERM THROUGH JUNE 30, 2027, WITH A TOTAL NOT-TO-EXCEED AMOUNT OF $5,000,000 OVER THE ALLOWABLE FIVE-YEAR TERM OF THE AGREEMENT

SUMMARY
The City operates 124 traffic signals within Pleasanton. Routine maintenance of these signals is performed by an outside contractor, as is replacement of aging equipment and emergency repairs. Staff solicited proposals for a traffic signal maintenance, equipment replacement and emergency repair contract and received five submissions, with St. Francis Electric submitting the lowest qualified proposal with costs for component replacement and emergency repairs in line with industry standards.

RECOMMENDATION

1. Review the proposals and award the traffic signal maintenance agreement to St.

Francis Electric for an annual not-to-exceed contract amount of $1,000,000 through June 30, 2027.

2. Authorize the City Manager to enter into the maintenance services contract.

3. Authorize the Director of Community Development to review and approve future contract extensions per the provisions of the contract.

BACKGROUND
Traffic signals are a critical safety component of the City's infrastructure; the City operates 124 traffic signals. On average, Pleasanton experiences less than two hours a month with a signal not in full operation (in flash). This equates to 90,000 hours per month when signals are fully operational, with fewer than two hours in flash (99.997% of the time signals are in full operation). This is due in large part to the preventative maintenance and replacement plan contract that allows signals to be maintained in good operating condition.

The Traffic Signal Maintenance contract contains three separate components: routine maintenance, replacement of aging components, and emergency repair. The City annually budgets for routine maintenance at approximately $275,000 per year, and replacement of aging components at $450,000 per year, for an annual total of $725,000. Emergency repair costs fluctuate based on the number of incidents (pole knockdowns, etc.) and are additive to this amount. In spring 2021, the City entered into a two-year contract with St. Francis Electric for maintenance of the City’s traffic signals. On completion of the initial two-year term, two oneyear extensions were allowed by the contract and were issued at the mutual agreement of the

Page 82 of 682 ends
Page 2 of 3 ends

City and St. Francis Electric; this extended the contract through June 30, 2025.

DISCUSSION
The City issued a Request for Proposals (RFP) for Traffic Signal Maintenance and Emergency Repair Services in April 2025. Five proposals were received from the following contractors: St.

Francis Electric, Bear Electrical Solutions, DC Electric, Yunex Traffic, and Econolite. St.

Francis Electric submitted the lowest responsive and responsible proposal; see Attachment 1 for a detailed proposal summary.

St. Francis Electric has maintained traffic signals for the City since 2021 and several Bay Area and Central Valley agencies since 2015. St. Francis has provided excellent signal maintenance services during the course of its current contract with the City.

The proposed contract establishes a two-year term, expiring on June 30, 2027, with the option of extending the contract for up to three additional one-year terms, through an administrative amendment. To support financial best practices, an annual “not-to-exceed” amount of $1,000,000 is identified which will apply to all work performed under the contract, including routine maintenance, replacement of aging equipment, and emergency repairs. The monthly preventative maintenance cost is $15,530 (125 signals x $116.00 and 17 flashing crosswalks x $50). In addition to the preventative cost, replacement of aging components (replacement of light bulbs, pedestrian push buttons, and internal circuitry) ranges between $5,000 - $10,000 per month. The combination of routine maintenance and replacement of aging equipment is budgeted at $725,000 per year, within the Traffic Division annual budget and replacement plan budget. The not-to-exceed amount is recommended at $1,000,000 as this additional contract capacity is included to account for any unforeseen events like pole knockdowns and additional work that may be needed through other capital improvement projects (such as signal detection cameras installed as part of street resurfacing projects), and gives the City the ability to quickly and flexibly implement repairs or incorporate complementary signal-related improvements when opportunities arise.

EQUITY AND SUSTAINABILITY
Not applicable, as this item is a routine matter of City business.

OUTREACH
No outreach was conducted, as this item is a routine matter of City business.

STRATEGIC PLAN ALIGNMENT
Approval of this action advances the ONE Pleasanton strategic plan goal of Investing in Our Infrastructure to develop an Asset Management Plan to address comprehensive long-term planning for maintenance, renovation, repair, and/or replacement of infrastructure and public facilities. This action will support maintaining the state of good repair and ensure proper operation of the traffic signal system citywide.

FISCAL IMPACT
Costs for preventative maintenance and replacement of aging infrastructure are funded through the Traffic Engineering signal operating budget ($275,000 in 00130402-420101) and supplemented by reimbursements from the Hacienda Owners Association and Caltrans. Both Hacienda and Caltrans have shared maintenance agreements with the City. Hacienda is

Page 83 of 682 ends
Page 3 of 3 ends

responsible for the maintenance of 29 signals (approximately $3,300 per month for ongoing regular maintenance, plus additional variable costs related to preventative maintenance and emergency repairs for the 29 signals), and Caltrans is responsible for half of the cost for intersection signals at freeway ramps (approximately $700 per month in ongoing regular maintenance costs, plus additional variable costs related to preventative maintenance and emergency repairs).

The Traffic Signal Repair and Replacement fund is used to replace larger components (traffic signal cabinets, service cabinets, traffic signal cameras, etc.) that have reached the end of their useful life. The Traffic Signal Repair and Replacement budget is $450,000 per year (comprised of $100,000 in 52030410-430107 for labor costs and $350,000 in 52030410- 440104 for equipment costs).

The costs for pole knockdowns are typically recovered from the party that caused the damage, and in the event no recoverable party is identified, the Traffic Engineering operating budget is used to pay for the repair. The annual not-to-exceed amount of $1,000,000 is in place to ensure that sufficient capacity in the contract is available to address any emergency needs. In addition, the signal maintenance services agreement is also utilized to assist in the City's resurfacing contracts (roadway resurfacing removes and replaces the traffic signal detection loops and a signal contractor is required for the repair and replacement of the signal detection system). As noted, $725,000 is budgeted annually in the Traffic Engineering and replacement plan budgets for these costs; if there are costs in excess of this amount due to pole knockdowns (which has happened extremely rarely), or from additional work from a Capital Improvement Project, it will be reflected as mid-year or midterm budget adjustments or through a CIP report to the City Council.

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
May 20, 2025
Community Development
TITLE: ADOPT A RESOLUTION APPROVING THE AFFORDABLE HOUSING AGREEMENT WITH SQUARE MILE PLEASANTON, LLC FOR THE MULTIFAMILY AFFORDABLE RENTAL HOUSING PROJECT AT 3300 BUSCH ROAD,

PART OF THE VILLAGES AT THE QUARRY RESIDENTIAL DEVELOPMENT

SUMMARY
Square Mile Pleasanton, LLC (Developer) received Planning Commission approval for Applications for Housing Site Compliance Review (Case No. P23-0480) and Vesting Tentative Map 8680 approval pursuant to SB 330 for the construction of: a) 310 detached two-story single-family residential homes with 62 junior accessory dwelling units (JADUs); b) 102 multiple-family rental units in four, three-story buildings plus an amenity building, which include 101 affordable housing units and one manager’s unit; c) an approximately 2-acre park owned/maintained by the development’s homeowners association (HOA) with access for the general public; and d) on- and off-site improvements. The residential development requires City Council approval of an Affordable Housing Agreement to comply with the City’s Inclusionary Zoning Ordinance (IZO), including approval of an alternative method of compliance regarding timing for construction of the units.

RECOMMENDATION
Adopt a resolution approving the Affordable Housing Agreement with Square Mile Pleasanton, LLC for the multi-family affordable rental housing project at 3300 Busch Road, part of the Villages at the Quarry residential development.

BACKGROUND
Site and Area Description
The approximately 51.37-acre, roughly triangular-shaped site is located at the southeast corner of Busch Road and Valley Avenue, known as 3300 Busch Road. The site is currently occupied by a construction equipment storage company operating under a short-term lease and through the approval of the City’s temporary use permit process. The neighboring Pleasanton Garbage Service (PGS) facility also leases space for parking/storage of trucks and vehicles on the site. The site is bounded to the north by Busch Road, with the Village at Ironwood senior residential community and City Public Works Department (formerly Operation Services Department) facility across Busch Road to the north. The east side of the site abuts the PGS transfer station facility and a large vacant lot. A self-storage facility and light industrial uses are located to the south and across Valley Avenue to the west. See Figure 1 for the project’s location. As described below, the proposed project includes two major elements – the development of 310 detached, market-rate units, and 102-unit multi-family units that would be located within a 3-acre area in the northeast quadrant of the site, adjacent to Busch Road.

Page 114 of 682 ends
Page 2 of 11 ends

Figure 1: Project Site and Surrounding Area
General Plan and Zoning
The project site has a General Plan Land Use designation of Housing Element Site Overlay (HESO) and a zoning designation of Housing Opportunity Zone District (HOZ) and Industrial General (IG-40,000). Residential uses are defined and identified as appropriate uses under the General Plan land use designations and the HOZ classification.

Senate Bill 330 and Objective Design Standards (ODS)
In March 2023, the Developer submitted a preliminary review application (P23-0188) for the project pursuant to Senate Bill 330 (SB 330). The law provides an optional vesting opportunity for housing development projects, which freezes the policies, standards and fees in effect when a complete Preliminary Application is submitted; as such, this project is vested to the policies, standards, and fees as of the time of the preliminary application submittal. Pursuant to State law, specifically the Housing Accountability Act (Cal. Government Code § 65589.5), the scope of the City’s review and basis for project approval or denial is based on conformance to the January 2023 ODS and the other City standards and regulations in place at time of the SB330 preliminary application. This includes conformance to the requirements of the Inclusionary Zoning Ordinance (IZO) as it was in place in March 2023; that is, prior to the IZO’s amendment/update in December 2024.

State Density Bonus Law (SDBL)
In addition, under State Density Bonus Law (SDBL), the City is required to provide for a number of “incentives,” “concessions” or “waivers or reductions of development standards” based on the percentage of affordable units and qualification for State housing density bonuses. A concession or incentive is defined in State law as a reduction in site development standards, a modification of zoning code or architectural design requirements or other regulatory incentives or concessions which result in identifiable cost reductions. The project qualifies for both incentives/concessions and waivers pursuant to SDBL, based on its

Page 115 of 682 ends
Page 3 of 11 ends

provision of 101 lower-income units, equivalent to 24.51 percent of the proposed market-rate units. The project’s proposed 24.51 percent lower-income units entitle it to up to two incentives or concessions, although the Developer is requesting only one incentive/concession.

State law separately defines “waivers or reductions of development standards” as a further form of assistance available to developers with eligible density bonus projects. Under SDBL, the City cannot apply a development standard that would physically preclude the construction of the project at its permitted density; accordingly, a developer may request such standards to be modified or “waived.” For most projects, there is no limit on the number of waivers or reductions of development standards that may be requested. Under these provisions, the Developer requested 19 waivers to deviate from the City’s standard requirements. Note that SDBL does not require a project to propose a density above the maximum allowed in order to apply for concessions or waivers.

The project applications, inclusive of an application for Housing Site Compliance Review (Case No. P23-0480) and Vesting Tentative Map 8680 approval pursuant to SB 330, and inclusive of the requested density bonus incentives and waivers was approved unanimously by the Planning Commission on April 23, 2025. No appeal was filed.

DISCUSSION
Project Description and Discussion
The approved project includes 310 single-family residential market-rate homes and 102 apartment rental units, all of which are deed-restricted affordable units except for one manager’s unit. The approved project also includes approximately 2.1-acre private park with public access.

Site Design
The project, referred to as “Villages at the Quarry,” provides two main vehicular access points:
from Busch Road on the Project’s north side and from Valley Avenue on the project’s southwest side. The project includes four residential “Villages”: Villages 1-3 are for detached single-family residential homes (with varying lot and home sizes within each village), and Village 4 which includes the multi-family rental units. The overall site plan and layout of the four villages is shown in Figure 2. See the April 23, 2025, Planning Commission Agenda Report or additional information and description of the overall project and Villages 1-3, including proposed circulation, parking, building design/architecture and other features.

Page 116 of 682 ends
Page 4 of 11 ends

Figure 2: Overall Project Layout
Village 4/Multi-Family Affordable Rental Development
Located in the northeast corner of the project site, Village 4 consists of four multi-family residential buildings (and one community amenity building) with a total of 101 affordable residential units and one on-site manager unit. It is anticipated that 45 of the units would be one-bedroom units, 26 would be two-bedroom, and 31 would be three-bedroom. Each of the buildings would range in size from approximately 14,269 square feet to 24,072 square feet, and the units would range in size from approximately 510 square feet to 1,060 square feet.

The maximum height of the multifamily buildings would be approximately 38 feet 10 inches.

Village 4 also includes a community center, picnic and play areas, and a pedestrian connection to the Iron Horse Trail along the project frontage on Busch Road.

Figure 3 shows the layout of the multi-family portion of the project in more detail. The closest residential building (Building B-2) in Village 4 is located approximately 200 feet from the PGS transfer station. The project plans show landscaping, parking spaces and drive aisle are proposed as a buffer separating commercial operations from residential uses.

Page 5 of 11 ends

Figure 3: Village 4 Layout
Building Designs
The multiple-family rental units would be provided within four, three-story buildings except for the one-story community center in Building C. The community center is intended to serve the needs of the apartment residents, and it includes a manager’s office, multi-purpose room, kitchen, laundry area, etc. In addition to the community center, Village 4 also provides an approximately 7,800 square foot outdoor open-space area with shade structures and a playground, located between Buildings A1 and A2. The design of the proposed multiple-family buildings would complement that of the single-family homes and shows California-style architecture characterized by composition shingle roof, cementitious board and batten siding, stone veneer wall with precast wall cap at the ground floor porch, vinyl window with cementitious trim, and trellis above the upper floor balconies, as shown in Figure 4 below.

Figure 4: Elevation Facing Busch Road
Inclusionary Zoning Ordinance (IZO) and Other Applicable Standards The governing standards with respect to the affordable housing component of the project are the Inclusionary Zoning Ordinance (PMC Chapter 17.44), and applicable standards of the December 2023 Objective Design Standards, and Housing Opportunity Zone District (PMC Chapter 18.38).

PMC Section 17.44.040(A) provides that for all new multi-family rental residential projects of 15 or more, at least 15 percent of the subject project’s dwelling units shall be affordable to Very Low-Income Households, and/or Low-Income Households, and that for all new for sale singlefamily home projects of 15 units or more, at least 20 percent of the subject project’s dwelling units shall be affordable to Very Low-Income Households, Low-Income Households, and/or Moderate-Income Households. Accordingly, for purposes of the 310 single-family detached market-rate units in Villages 1, 2, and 3, the 20 percent requirement triggers an obligation to provide a total of 62 inclusionary affordable units.

The requirements of the IZO are complemented by standards of the ODS with respect to specific required affordability levels and bedroom mix. A minimum of 25 percent of the inclusionary units are to be restricted at 50% of the Area Median Income (AMI) (Very LowIncome Units), 25 percent of the units at 60% AMI (Low-Income Units), and 50 percent of the units at 80% AMI (Low-Income Units). With respect to bedroom mix, 10 percent of total inclusionary units will be three-bedroom units, 45 percent of the units will be two-bedroom units, and the remaining units will be studio or one-bedroom units except no more than 10 percent of the units may be studios. The applicable zoning district (HOZ District) also includes other standards with respect to affordable housing, including location and design, generally mirroring the ODS. While the IZO generally requires the affordable units to be distributed among the market-rate units, a key provision of the HOZ is to permit clustering of the affordable units, where the inclusionary units are permitted to be in a rental apartment building or complex concentrated in an area of the project.

However, the IZO also includes provisions for alternative compliance in Section 17.44.080, as follows: “The primary emphasis of this inclusionary zoning ordinance is to achieve the inclusion of affordable housing units to be constructed in conjunction with market rate units within the same project in all new residential projects. However, the city acknowledges that it may not always be practical to require that every project satisfy its affordable housing requirement through the construction of affordable units within the project itself. Therefore, the requirements of this chapter may be satisfied by various methods other than the construction

Page 119 of 682 ends
Page 7 of 11 ends

of inclusionary units on the project site. Some examples of alternate methods of compliance appear below. As housing market conditions change, the city may need to allow alternatives to provide options to applicants to further the intent of providing affordable housing with new development projects.”
As permitted in PMC Section 17.44.080(D), the Developer is proposing an alternative method of compliance to the IZO. In particular, the Developer is proposing that the multi-family residential units would not be built concurrently with the single-family units, as typically required by the IZO, in order to ensure the tax-credit financing is secured for the construction of the multi-family units.

The total of 101 affordable units exceeds the applicable IZO requirement of 62 IZO units. The 101 affordable rental units represent an inclusionary percentage of approximately 24.51 percent, which exceeds the 20 percent IZO requirement. All the proposed 101 affordable units would be provided within Village 4, in a complex of four 3-story buildings with a community building and outdoor amenities. Except with respect to the timing for construction of the units, the proposed unit affordability, mix of unit sizes/bedroom counts, and distribution of the units complies with applicable provisions of the IZO and other City standards. In its review and approval of the overall project, the Planning Commission determined that the design of the project would comply with all applicable design and development standards, except as modified by the requested and approved waivers and concessions permitted under State Density Bonus Law.

The affordable housing component is proposed to be developed by a third-party specialized affordable housing developer, with the site deeded by the applicant to the affordable developer for that purpose. Staff notes that while not a provision of the Affordable Housing Agreement, since they represent private agreements/commitments between the applicant and affordable housing developer, in addition to conveying the site and improving it to be “shovel ready”, the applicant has indicated they would contribute $3 million to the Affordable Housing Developer to subsidize the construction of the multi-family affordable rental housing development.

Affordable Housing Agreement
To satisfy the requirements of the IZO and the related requirements of the ODS, as well as those under the SDBL, the City and Developer desire to enter into an agreement to further memorialize the Developer’s commitment to construct the affordable units, pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Project Approvals and in accordance with SDBL and the IZO. The Draft AHA is included as Exhibit A of the Resolution provided as Attachment 1. Some of the key terms in the proposed Affordable Housing Agreement (AHA) are listed below:
• The 102-unit multi-family project shall have the following bedroom mix:
1 Bedroom 2 Bedroom 3 Bedroom Total Units
Number of
Units
45 26 31 102
The affordability restrictions, as specified in the Pleasanton January 2023 Objective Design Standards (ODS) for Housing Site, shall be as follows:

Page 120 of 682 ends
Page 8 of 11 ends

• A minimum of 25 percent of the Affordable Units shall have rents set at no more than 30% of 50% of AMI (as defined below) for households with incomes up to 50% of AMI (Very Low-Income Units).
• A minimum of 25 percent of Affordable Units shall have rents set at no more than 30% of 60% of AMI for households with incomes of 51% to 60% of AMI (Low-Income Units). • A maximum of 50 percent of Affordable Units shall have rents set at no more than 30% of 80% of AMI for households with incomes of 61% to 80% of AMI (also Low-Income Units).
• The Developer may request to revise the affordability restrictions, subject to City Council approval.
• Affordable Unit rents shall be based on the following household sizes and shall not exceed one-twelfth of 30% of the applicable Area Median Income (AMI) adjusted for the household sizes listed below:

Unit Type Household Size
1-Bedroom Unit One and a half (1.5) person household
2-Bedroom Unit Three (3) person household
3-Bedroom Unit Four and a half (4.5) person household
• The Affordable Units shall be rented to qualified applicants in accordance with the City’s Preference System (provided as Attachment 2 to Exhibit A - Affordable Housing Agreement of the resolution).
• The affordability restrictions shall be in perpetuity.

Per the PMC, an Affordable Housing Agreement is required to document the proposed approach to meeting the IZO and related requirements of the ODS. In the case of this project, some aspects of the affordable housing approach deviate from the strict requirements of the IZO, particularly with respect to the phasing/timing of the provision of the units as the IZO requires that “all inclusionary units in a project shall be constructed ‘concurrently within or prior to construction of the market rate units’”. The Developer is proposing an alternative means of compliance with the IZO. The alternative phasing and timing are necessary to address the specific way these units will be constructed and built, which may include a third-party Affordable Housing Developer and use of the Lower Income Housing Tax Credit (LIHTC) program funding to support the financing and construction of the multi-family affordable rental units.

The City is agreeable to the Developer being able to proceed with site development and construction of a proportion of the single-family units in advance/non-concurrently with building permits being issued for the affordable units – doing so is a practical consideration based on the LIHTC funding application process (which happens bi-annually), phased nature of the market rate-development (where site improvements for the market-rate units will support development of the affordable units), and nature of the affordable project, which includes multiple units in each of its buildings, the timing of construction of which may not precisely

Page 121 of 682 ends
Page 9 of 11 ends

match to the phasing of the single-family project.

The AHA includes the following provisions to provide adequate assurance that, should there be delay in construction of the affordable units or they not proceed at all, the IZO’s requirements would be guaranteed to be met subject to the following:
• Developer shall deposit a “Fee Security” equaling the applicable Affordable Housing Fee per single-family unit multiplied by the number of affordable units that have not yet been constructed multiplied by five. Sample calculations are provided in the AHA. • The Fee Security shall be forfeited if Developer fails to obtain the building permits for the required number of affordable units within 12 months of City’s issuance of building permit(s) for the Market Rate Units. The Fee Security shall be refunded when the building permits for the affordable units have been obtained.

It is important to note that the applicable requirement of the IZO in place in March 2023, permit the inclusionary requirement to be satisfied by payment of in-lieu fees. Although the project proposes to construct units, collecting in-lieu fees for the market-rate units that are only released with issuance of the proportionate number of affordable building permits, provides a “backstop” for compliance.

The AHA also stipulates how the Developer shall meet its obligations under SDBL. The City and Developer have agreed to the following:
• Developer shall complete all the necessary remediation, grading, site work, and utility connections for the Affordable Housing Site where the multi-family units shall be constructed prior to transferring the Affordable Housing Site to the Affordable Housing Developer. Upon transfer of the Affordable Housing Site, the City shall issue the building permits for the first 75 single-family units.
• The City shall not issue the building permits for the 76th and/or any remaining singlefamily units unless the Developer has obtained the building permits for the affordable units, in accordance with one of the following increments:
o Building permits for a minimum of 21 affordable units for very low-income households (between 30% and 50% AM); or
o Building permits for a minimum of 42 affordable units for low-income households (between 51% and 80% AMI)
Housing Element and Regional Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA) Compliance The City’s adopted 2023 Housing Element identifies the Project site as the Kiewit Site, Area

21. Per the Housing Element, Area 21 includes two separate subareas. As illustrated in the Housing Element Appendix B - Sites Inventory and Methodology, the site is shown as having an approximately 5-acre area designated for high-density housing at 30 dwelling units per acre (du/acre) and the remainder designated at a density of 8-13 du/acre.

This project would allow the City to construct the RHNA housing units in the City’s 2023-2031 Housing Element cycle. The 310 single-family market rate units would be reported in upcoming

Page 122 of 682 ends
Page 10 of 11 ends

Annual Planning Reports as satisfying a portion of the City’s 2,313 above-moderate income RHNA units. The 101 affordable rental housing units would be reported as satisfying a portion of the City’s 2,758 very low (1,750 units) and low-income (1,008 units) RHNA units. As noted, the project exceeds the requirements of the IZO with respect to the number of affordable housing units provided.

CALIFORNIA ENVIRONMENTAL QUALITY ACT (CEQA)
Pursuant to CEQA, the Planning Commission reviewed and adopted a Section 15183 Consistency Checklist prepared for the Project pursuant to the City of Pleasanton 2023-2031 (6th Cycle) Housing Element Update Environmental Impact Report (SCH# 2022040091) (Housing Element Update Final EIR or FEIR) and has considered the information contained therein, as part of its approval. The proposed affordable housing component would be within the scope of the project and the environmental analysis. Staff recommends the City Council find the CEQA Guidelines Section 15183 Consistency Checklist and Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program (MMRP) prepared for the Project pursuant to the City of Pleasanton Housing Element Update FEIR satisfies the requirements of CEQA and representing the independent judgment and analysis of the City of Pleasanton as lead agency for the Project.

PLANNING COMMISSION ACTION
On April 23, 2025, the Planning Commission unanimously approved the Applications for Housing Site Compliance Review (Case No. P23-0480) and Vesting Tentative Map 8680 approval pursuant to SB 330 for the construction of: a) 310 detached two-story single-family residential homes with 62 junior accessory dwelling units (JADUs); b) 102 multiple-family rental units in five, three-story buildings which include 101 affordable housing units and one manager unit; c) an approximately 2-acre park owned/maintained by the development’s Homeowners Association (HOA) with access to the general public; d) and on- and off-site improvements, and recommended the City Council approved the Affordable Housing Agreement. As noted, the Planning Commission also adopted the CEQA Section 15183 Conformance Analysis and made findings thereto.

EQUITY AND SUSTAINABILITY
The action directly implements the Housing Element, a key goal of which is to increase housing opportunities, including opportunities for housing affordable to very low- and lowincome residents – both through inclusionary requirements, and creating more opportunities for partnerships with housing developers. Approval of the proposed project would allow for the construction of 310 single-family market rate units and 101 multi-family affordable rental units which exceed the 62 IZO-required units. The site is identified as a housing opportunity site in the 6th Cycle Housing Element Update.

OUTREACH
Notice of the application was sent to the surrounding property owners and tenants within a 1,000-foot radius of the site prior to the April 23, 2025 Planning Commission meeting. The Developer also posted an on-site project notification sign pursuant to the City’s on-site project notification policy. No public comment was received at the Planning Commission meeting. The City did receive a written correspondence from the non-profit California Housing Defense Fund supporting the housing project.

Page 123 of 682 ends
Page 11 of 11 ends

STRATEGIC PLAN ALIGNMENT
Approval of this action advances the ONE Pleasanton Strategic Plan goal of Building a Community Where Everyone Belongs – Strategy 6, which aims to implement the Housing Element and develop a plan to end homelessness to meet state requirements and provide opportunities for additional housing and shelter in the community. This project would add a total of 412 (310 single-family units and 102 multi-family rental units) new residential units to Pleasanton’s housing stock, all of which would provide new housing opportunities for Pleasanton and Tri-Valley residents.

FISCAL IMPACT
Approval of the Affordable Housing Agreement will implement the approval of the Villages at the Quarry residential project, including 101 affordable housing units in compliance with the City's adopted Inclusionary Zoning Ordinance. While these new residential units will increase the demand for City services, it will be offset by new property tax from the new market-rate units and overall increase in assessed value of the site and new sales tax generated by spending by the new residents; the project will also be required to pay development impact fees to offset the needs for capital improvements created by the project’s new residents.

Page 125 of 682 ends

2 requirements of CEQA and represents the independent judgment and analysis of the City of Pleasanton as lead agency for the Project.

Accordingly, the City Council makes the following findings for adoption of the 15183 Consistency Checklist and MMRP prepared for the Project pursuant to the City of Pleasanton Housing Element Update FEIR:

1. There are no new significant effects peculiar to the Project or its site;

2. There are no new significant effects that were not previously evaluated in the Pleasanton General Plan 2005-2025 FEIR and Housing Element Update FEIR;

3. There are no new significant off-site or cumulative impacts that were not analyzed in the Pleasanton General Plan 2005-2025 FEIR and Housing Element Update FEIR, and

4. There are no adverse impacts that are more severe than those previously identified in the Pleasanton General Plan 2005-2025 FEIR and Housing Element Update FEIR.

This evaluation concludes the Project qualifies for an exemption from additional environmental review under Section 15183 because it is consistent with the development density and land use characteristics established by the City, as analyzed by the Pleasanton General Plan 2005-2025 FEIR and Housing Element Update FEIR.

AFFORDABLE HOUSING AGREEMENT
(Villages at the Quarry)
This AFFORDABLE HOUSING AGREEMENT ("Agreement") is made this day of , 2025, by the CITY OF PLEASANTON, a Municipal Corporation ("City"), and SQUARE MILE PLEASANTON, LLC, a California limited liability company (“Owner”).

RECITALS
A. Owner currently owns a legal or equitable interest in land consisting of approximately 51.37 acres located at 3300 Busch Road (APNs 946 125100704, 946 125100809 and 946 125103300) in Pleasanton, California (the "Property").

B. Owner has obtained City approval (PS 23-0480) to develop on the Property (i) a maximum of three hundred and ten (310) single-family residential units along with approximately fifty-seven (57) junior accessory dwelling units (collectively, the “Single-Family Component”) and a maximum of one hundred and one (101) affordable multi-family residential units together with one manager’s unit (collectively, the “Multi-Family Component”). The Single-Family Component and the Multi-Family Component are referred to collectively herein as the “Residential Units”.

The Residential Units, together with all related on-site and off-site improvements, including, without limitation, hardscape improvements, parking areas and landscaping improvements to the Property (all in accordance with the project approvals, the plans and specifications approved by City, and any conditions imposed by City in issuing the project approvals), constitute, collectively, the "Project."
C. Within the Property, the Multi-Family Component will be constructed by an experienced affordable housing developer (“Affordable Housing Owner”) on approximately 3.06 acres, as further described and depicted in Attachment 1 attached hereto and incorporated herein by reference (the “Affordable Housing Site”). Owner and City wish to make each Residential Unit within the Multi-Family Component (except for one manager’s unit) available to households with incomes generally at or below eighty percent (80%) (low income) of the Area Median Income (each, an “Affordable Unit” and collectively, the “Affordable Housing”) as detailed more fully herein. For the avoidance of doubt, any junior accessory dwelling units to be constructed within the Single-Family Component are intended to be “affordable by design” and are not intended to be “Affordable Housing” as such term is used in this Agreement, including for purposes of compliance with Chapter 17.44 of the City’s Municipal Code as in effect on March 1, 2023 (“Inclusionary Zoning Ordinance” or “IZO”). (;+,%,7$

2 158739848.5
D. Except as provided for in Gov’t Code Section 65589.5(o)(2), City and Owner acknowledge that Owner has vested into the provisions of the IZO in effect as of March 1, 2023 and that any subsequent changes to the IZO adopted by City shall not apply to the Project, including the amendments to the IZO adopted by City Council on December 3, 2024 pursuant to Ordinance No. 2287 Owner agrees that it is subject to the automatic annual adjustment to the Affordable Housing Fee as set forth in PMC Chapter 17.40.070, in existence on the above vesting date; for the avoidance of doubt, this means that the annual adjustment shall be based on the Consumer Price Index for San Francisco/Oakland region, and not the Engineering News Record Consumer Construction Cost Index for the San Francisco Bay Area.

E. City and Owner acknowledge and agree that it is anticipated that the Property (all or portion(s) thereof) will be conveyed to other individual(s) and/or entities for the purpose of constructing and operating the Project. This will include the conveyance of the Affordable Housing Site to an Affordable Housing Owner for purposes of constructing and operating the Affordable Units.

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants, agreements and conditions contained herein, City and Owner agree as follows:

1. Affordable Unit Provisions. The Multi-Family Component shall have one hundred and one (101) Affordable Units. Owner shall make all Affordable units available for rent to households at or below 80% of the Area Median Income as provided in Cal.

Government Code §65915 and Cal. Health & Safety Code §50053(b)(4). For the Affordable Units that receive a California Tax Credit Allocation Committee (“TCAC”) allocation for their construction, rent shall be consistent with the rent averaging requirements of TCAC. Owner will provide City with a Reservation Letter for all Affordable Units that receive a TCAC allocation. The Affordable Units shall be consistent with the following:

A. The Multi-Family Component shall have the following bedroom mix:
1-Bed 2-Bed 3-Bed Totals
# of Units 45 26 31 102
B. In addition to meeting any minimum affordability requirement specified in Sections 3(A)(2)(a) or 3(A)(2)(b) of this Agreement, pursuant to State Density Bonus Law, the Multi-Family Component shall meet the affordability restrictions specified in the City of Pleasanton’s January 2023 Objective Design Standards for Housing Site, as follows:

1. A minimum of 25 percent of the Affordable Units shall have rents set at no more than 30% of 50% of AMI (as defined below) for households with incomes up to 50% of AMI (Very Low-Income Units).

2. A minimum of 25 percent of Affordable Units shall have rents set at no more than 30% of 60% of AMI for households with incomes of 51% to 60% of AMI (Low-Income Units).

Page 129 of 682 ends

3 158739848.5

3. A maximum of 50 percent of Affordable Units shall have rents set at no more than 30% of 80% of AMI for households with incomes of 61% to 80% of AMI (also Low-Income Units).

Notwithstanding the foregoing, Owner may request to revise the foregoing mix for Affordable Units, subject to City Council approval.

C. Affordable Unit rents shall be based on the following household sizes:

Unit Type Household Size
1 Bedroom Unit One and a half (1.5)
person household
2 Bedroom Unit Three (3) person
household
3 Bedroom Unit Four and a half (4.5)
person household
D. The monthly rent for each of the Affordable Units shall not exceed: (1) for extremely low-income households, one-twelfth of 30% of the Area Median Income adjusted for the household sizes listed in Section B above multiplied by 30%; or (2) for very low-income households, one-twelfth of 50% of the Area Median Income adjusted for the household sizes listed in Section B multiplied by 30%; or (3) for low-income households, one-twelfth of 80% of the Area Median Income adjusted for the household sizes listed in Section B above multiplied by 30%. As used in this Agreement, Area Median Income or AMI shall mean the area median income for the San Francisco-Oakland-Fremont Metropolitan Statistical Area adjusted for household size in accordance with adjustment factors adopted and amended from time to time by the United States Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) pursuant to Section 8 of the United State Housing Act of 1937 or any successor statute.

E. Rent for Affordable Units shall be based on the AMI at the time City issues Certificates of Occupancy for the subject Affordable Units and shall adjust consistent with HUD’s adjustment in the AMI. If HUD fails to issue revised Area Median Income/household income statistics for the San Francisco-OaklandFremont Metropolitan Statistical Area within 15 months of the previous revision, rents for the Affordable Units may be adjusted based on the annual percentage increase in the San Francisco-Oakland Consumer Price Index for urban wage earners and clerical workers.

F. The rents described herein shall exclude utilities that are both paid by the resident and are listed on the local public housing authority utility allowance schedule.

G. The affordability levels shall not be fixed and may change within the apartment units depending on vacancies.

H. All Affordable Units shall be rented to qualified applicants in accordance with the City’s Preference System, as may be amended, with the most current version set forth in Attachment 3, except to the extent otherwise required by federal or state law (including, without limitation, laws and regulations governing fair housing and low-income tax credits), in which case City and Owner shall mutually agree to a different process as permitted by such laws and regulations.

Page 130 of 682 ends

4 158739848.5
I. Once each year, Owner (or Owner’s successor in interest) shall provide City with a report detailing the average annual income of tenants occupying the Affordable Units for each of the income categories described in Section 1(C) above, the number of persons for each household occupying an Affordable Unit, and the number of vacancies and new rentals during the year for the Affordable Units.

J. All Affordable Units shall be subject to this Agreement for perpetuity.

K. Owner, with City consultation, shall assume all responsibility to market the Affordable Units. Marketing shall be in accordance with City eligibility and income guidelines in conformance with the City’s Preference System, unless otherwise mandated by federal or state laws (including, without limitation, laws and regulations governing fair housing and low-income tax credits), in which case City and Owner shall mutually agree to a different process as permitted by such laws and regulations. Marketing material, the form of lease, rent-up schedules, and other publicly disseminated printed materials related to the Affordable Units shall be subject to City’s approval in its reasonable discretion.

L. Owner shall accept Section 8 vouchers as a means of assisting qualified applicants/residents with Affordable Units.

2. Alternative Compliance With IZO
A. The IZO requires that “all inclusionary units in a project shall be constructed ‘concurrently within or prior to construction of the market rate units’”.

B. The IZO also permits the payment of an Affordable Housing Fee (as defined below) in lieu of constructing the inclusionary units, with such fee payable at time of issuance of building permits for the development. As used herein, (i) “Affordable Housing Fee” means the IZO in-lieu fee (under City Municipal Code section 17.44.080 (E)) in effect at the time Owner submitted the Preliminary Application for the Project, subject to any annual fee adjustments permitted under PMC section 17.40.070 (for the avoidance of doubt, the Affordable Housing Fee (taking into account applicable annual fee adjustments) in effect as of January 1, 2025 is $52,203.00 per Market Rate Unit) which amount shall be adjusted (based on the $50,480 Affordable Housing Fee plus applicable annual fee adjustments) at the time of the issuance of the building permit; and (ii) Market Rate Unit means any single-family residence in the Single-Family Component.

C. Owner is proposing an alternative means of compliance for the IZO.

Notwithstanding any provisions of the IZO to the contrary, City and Owner agree that Owner shall have the right to commence and complete construction of Market Rate Units ahead of construction of Affordable Units, subject to the following:

1. If Owner seeks building permit(s) for Market Rate Unit(s) prior to City issuing building permit(s) for the number of Affordable Units required to satisfy the resulting Affordable Units Requirement (as defined below), Owner shall deposit with City as security, concurrent with the issuance of the building permit(s) being sought for the applicable Market Rate Unit(s), the amount (“Fee

Page 131 of 682 ends

5 158739848.5
Security”) determined by multiplying (i) the Affordable Housing Fee by (ii) the Unmet Affordable Units Requirement multiplied by five. As used herein, (A) “Affordable Units Requirement” means the number equal to 20% of the total number of Market Rate Units for which building permits have been issued by City as of a given time (with any decimal fraction less than or equal to 0.50 disregarded and any decimal fraction greater than 0.50 rounded up to 1.0) and (B) “Unmet Affordable Units Requirement” means (i) the Affordable Units Requirement as of a given time less (ii) the number of Affordable Units for which building permits have been issued by City as of the same time (for the avoidance of doubt, if the difference obtained from such calculation is negative, then the Unmet Affordable Units Requirement shall be zero for purposes hereof).

The following table describes how this calculation methodology would work in a range of possible sample payments of $52,203 per Market Rate Unit over the life of the Project:

2. City shall hold any Fee Security received from Owner in a segregated interest-bearing escrow account. Owner shall forfeit any Fee Security held by City if Owner fails to obtain building permits for the number of Affordable Units sufficient to satisfy the Unmet Affordable Units Requirement within 12 months of City’s issuance of building permit(s) for the Market Rate Units related thereto, unless an extension is granted by the City, with approval by the City Manager. Prior to the expiration of any such 12 months period, Owner may request an extension for an additional six months, which City shall have sole discretion to grant (provided, however, City shall not unreasonably deny any such extension request if Owner provides evidence that Owner (or Affordable Housing Owner) is actively and diligently working to secure the building permit(s) required to satisfy the applicable Unmet Affordable Units Requirement).

D. Owner has the following options, when the number of Affordable Units for which building permits have been issued exceeds the Affordable Units Requirement:

1. Owner may request a refund of any excess Fee Security being held by City; or

2. Owner may allow City to continue to hold the Fee Security, which may then be used by Owner as a credit against any Affordable Housing Fees that may be required for a future phase of the Project.

E. Once Certificates of Occupancy have been issued for at least sixty-two (62) Affordable Units, City’s IZO requirement shall be deemed to have been fully satisfied, and any remaining Fee Security held by City shall be refunded to Owner and with ten (10) business days thereof.

F. City and Owner agree that in the event of a conflict between the terms of this Agreement and the IZO, the terms of this Agreement shall prevail.

3. Compliance With State Density Bonus Law (“SDBL”)
A. Owner and City agree that Owner’s compliance with the terms of this Section 3 of this Agreement (including the phasing of the Affordable Units described herein) shall constitute satisfaction of Owner’s obligation under SDBL. In furtherance thereof, City and Owner also agree as follows:

1. Owner shall achieve Substantial Completion (as defined below) of all necessary remediation, grading, site work, and utility connections for the Affordable Housing Site prior to transferring the Affordable Housing Site to the Affordable Housing Owner. As used herein, “Substantial Completion” means the required work has been completed and finally inspected by City.

Upon transfer of the Affordable Housing Site, City shall issue building permits for the first 75 Market Rate Units, as and when requested by Owner.

2. City shall not issue the 76th and/or any remaining Market Rate Units unless Owner (or Affordable Housing Owner) has obtained building permits for Affordable Units, in accordance with one of the following increments:
a. Building permits for a minimum of twenty-one (21) Affordable Units for very low-income households (between 30% and 50% AMI); or b. Building permits for a minimum of forty-two (42) Affordable Units for low-income households (between 51% and 80% AMI).

3. At such time as (i) Owner has transferred the Affordable Housing Site to the Affordable Housing Owner, and (ii) Owner has complied with the building permit obligations in either subsection (A)(2)(a) or subsection (A)(2)(b) above, then the Project’s SDBL requirements shall be deemed fully satisfied.

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT
May 20, 2025
Community Development
TITLE: ADOPT A RESOLUTION AFFIRMING THE CITY’S COMMITMENT TO TAKE

STEPS TOWARD ACHIEVING COMPLIANCE WITH THE METROPOLITAN TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION’S (MTC'S) TRANSIT-ORIENTED

COMMUNITIES (TOC) POLICY AS A CONDITION FOR MTC TO ALLOCATE

REGIONAL DISCRETIONARY FUNDING UNDER THE TOC PLANNING AND

IMPLEMENTATION GRANTS PROGRAM

SUMMARY
In September 2022, MTC-ABAG adopted a new Transit-Oriented Communities (TOC) policy, generally applicable to areas within one half-mile of transit stops and stations, and addressing areas such as development density, housing policies/programs, and station area mobility.

While conformance to the policy is voluntary, the program is tied to significant near- and longer-term planning and infrastructure grant funding administered by MTC-ABAG. Most significantly, the policy will inform future grant-funding allocations to Pleasanton through the One Bay Area Grant (OBAG) program, starting with the 4th cycle (OBAG 4) of funding in 2026.

In the more near-term, it is tied to forthcoming allocations of regional funds (specifically Regional Measure 3 (RM-3) funds) for projects involving new transit stations – this includes the future Valley Link intermodal station at the east Dublin/Pleasanton BART Station.

Related, the City’s Housing Element designates the east Dublin/Pleasanton BART Station as a Housing Element site, and the City has committed to taking concrete steps to advance redevelopment of the 14.9-acre station property. In 2024, the City applied for and was awarded a $250,000 planning grant under MTC-ABAG’s Priority Sites program, to fund development of a concept plan and other efforts toward site redevelopment, in partnership with BART.

Strategies to effectively address parking management and multi-modal access for the area around the BART station will be critical to the success of the project and dovetail with several of the TOC Policy’s objectives.

With the TOC policy as a cornerstone of MTC-ABAG’s regional planning and policy frameworks, the agency is supporting efforts by local jurisdictions toward TOC policy compliance, through a planning technical assistance grant program. The City applied for and has been awarded an additional $300,000 Technical Assistance grant to support the development of parking management and station access plans, which will both support progress toward implementation of the TOC Policy and augment planning for the BART property. Long-term, full or partial compliance with the TOC Policy will open opportunities for receipt of OBAG 4 funding, including grant funding to support infrastructure, planning and other beneficial investments around major transit stops, including the BART station.

As a condition of accepting the $300,000 Technical Assistance grant funds, the City is required to adopt a Resolution of Local Support, which affirms the City’s commitment to taking steps towards TOC Policy Compliance.

RECOMMENDATION
Adopt a resolution affirming the City’s commitment to take steps toward achieving compliance with the Metropolitan Transportation Commission’s (MTC's) Transit-Oriented Communities (TOC) Policy as a condition for MTC to allocate regional discretionary funding under the TOC Planning and Implementation Grants Program.

BACKGROUND
The requested resolution of local support (Attachment 1) is required for the City to receive a requested $300,000 in grant funds from MTC-ABAG, which will fund work to develop and implement strategies for parking management and station access around the east Dublin/Pleasanton BART Station. As outlined below, these strategies are supportive of efforts toward compliance with the MTC-ABAG’s Transit-Oriented Communities (TOC) Policy, which benefits eligibility for local and regional planning, infrastructure and transportation funding (OBAG 4 and Regional Measure 3), and to plan for and implement redevelopment of the BART station property, consistent with the 6th Cycle Housing Element.

TOC Policy and Relationship to Local Projects and Plans MTC-ABAG’s TOC policy, adopted in 2022, derives from its recent regional land use and transportation plan, known as Plan Bay Area 2050 (PBA 2050). The policy is intended to support the region’s transit investments and broader environmental, sustainable development, housing, and transportation objectives by increasing housing and employment opportunities near transit. As a regional agency, MTC-ABAG does not have local land use authority over its member jurisdictions, but can incentivize local jurisdictions to meet its regional policy objectives through the discretionary regional transportation and other funding it controls.

One Bay Area Grant (OBAG) Program
The most significant program to be tied to future TOC Policy compliance is the One Bay Area Grant (OBAG) program. The program, which has existed since 2012, supports the implementation of Plan Bay Area by directing funding to regional priority programs: prioritizing funding for transit adjacent areas, rewarding housing production, and providing a flexible funding program to support a broad range of transportation projects. As a practical matter, the OBAG program is administered by the various Bay Area counties’ transportation agencies, in Alameda County, Alameda CTC.

The OBAG program is currently in its third round of funding (OBAG 3). Starting in 2026, with OBAG 4, the program will be re-oriented to align with the TOC policy, with eligibility for discretionary funding and competitive grants relying on compliance with the adopted TOC Policy. OBAG 3 provided a total of $375 million over its four-year cycle, funding a range of projects throughout the region.

In the past, the City has not aggressively pursued competitive OBAG grant funding, but did receive both OBAG 1 ($832,000) and OBAG 2 ($1,095,000) funding for roadway resurfacing projects. The City did not have an allocation of OBAG 3 funds as part of Alameda CTC’s combined call for projects, and instead funded these projects through Measure BB, since they were better matched with that funding source.

Although local jurisdictions’ compliance with the TOC policy with respect to OBAG 4 funding

Page 142 of 682 ends
Page 3 of 5 ends

eligibility is voluntary, it will be beneficial for the City to have access to these funds to the extent possible, particularly as the City’s local funds are more constrained, and, with other jurisdictions also facing budget challenges, likely increased competition for County and regional funds.

Regional Measure 3/Funding for Valley Link
In addition to future OBAG 4 funding eligibility, MTC-ABAG has determined that, in the near term, allocation of regional funding, specifically funding under RM-3 for new/future major transit stations part of the regional transportation network, should also be tied to commitments around progressive compliance to the TOC Policy. The new Valley Link intermodal connection/station at the east Dublin/ Pleasanton BART station in Pleasanton is one such station. MTC-ABAG has provided notification that an indication of commitment toward TOC Policy Compliance will need to be made by Pleasanton, Dublin and Livermore to support the next requested round of Valley Link RM-3 funding in 2025. (Dublin and Pleasanton “share” the east Dublin/Pleasanton intermodal station, and Livermore will have Valley Link stations in the Isabel neighborhood and Southfront Road).

Dublin/Pleasanton BART Station Site Redevelopment
The east Dublin/Pleasanton BART station has been included as a potential housing site in the City’s Housing Element since 2012. AB 2923, signed into law in 2018, establishes certain minimum densities and other standards for BART-owned properties to encourage housing on these sites, and BART’s policies strongly support the re-development of these properties for housing and more intensive mixed-use development. The 6th Cycle Housing Element continues to designate the east Dublin/Pleasanton BART Station as a housing site, and the City has committed to taking concrete steps - as a Housing Element program - to advance redevelopment of the 14.9-acre station property.

Accordingly, in 2024, the City applied for and was awarded a $250,000 planning grant under MTC-ABAG’s Priority Sites program, to help fund development of a concept plan and other efforts toward this goal, in partnership with BART. Strategies and programs to effectively address parking management and multi-modal access for the half-mile radius around the BART station will be critical to the success of the project and also dovetails with several of the TOC Policy’s objectives.

Transit-Oriented Communities Planning and Implementation Grant Funds In light of the above-referenced programs and planning efforts, the City applied for two MTCABAG Technical Assistance planning grants, intended to support cities moving toward compliance with the TOC Policy. The grants, each for $150,000 will specifically support development of parking management and station access plans in the vicinity of the east Dublin-Pleasanton BART station. One of the stipulations of receiving the grants awarded by MTC-ABAG is to affirm intent to take steps toward compliance of the TOC Policy, through adoption of a resolution of local support. Attachment 1 includes the draft resolution, with its content following a template provided by MTC-ABAG.

DISCUSSION
TOC Policy Outline and Compliance
Within Pleasanton, the TOC policy conceptually applies to areas within one half-mile of the two BART stations and the ACE train station, with the stations classified into tiers based on transit
