SECTION I

Declaration of Findings
. The Board of Supervisors of Alameda County Flood Control and Water Conservation District has determined the necessity to make improvements to the Zone No. 7 water supply system. The District is empowered, pursuant to Section 12.1 of the Alameda County Flood Control and Water Conservation District Act, to prescribe and collect charges for water delivery and treatment facilities furnished or to be furnished within a zone of the District.

This Board does hereby find that continual improvement to the Zone No. 7 water supply system would be for the benefit of Zone No. 7 residents and property owners to meet increasing demands on the water supply system, to enhance the quality of water, to minimize harm from water shortages, to improve operational flexibility of the system, and to improve the reliability of water service, and that the public interest, necessity, convenience and general welfare of the residents and property owners of Zone No. 7 require the institution, construction and maintenance of said improvements. Revenues now available to the Zone will not be fully adequate to construct and maintain additional required facilities without substantial water or tax rate increases. In order to apportion more fairly the costs of new facilities on the basis of benefits conferred upon the property within the area, the charges hereinbelow indicated are hereby established on all new connections to any water system which is directly connected to the Zone No. 7 water supply system, to be utilized to accomplish proposed improvement in the water treatment and delivery system.

The facts constituting such necessity are that failure of a recent bond election and resultant shortage of funds for improvement or expansion of necessary water treatment and delivery facilities has resulted in a projected need for water rationing in the Livermore-Amador Valley Area due to an increasingly heavy burden on existing facilities following a steady increase in population and residential construction in that Area. The proposed charges to be imposed pursuant to this Ordinance will be applied toward the construction of the needed facilities.

Before the expiration of fifteen (15) days after the passage of this Ordinance it shall be published once with the names of members voting for and against the same in The Inter-City Express, a newspaper published in the said County of Alameda.

Adopted by the Board of Supervisors of the Alameda County Flood Control and Water Conservation District on this 18th day of January, 1972, by the following called vote:

AYES: Supervisors Bort, Cooper, Murphy, Razeto and Chairman Hannon - 5

NOES: Supervisors None

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT

April 21, 2026
Community and Economic Development

TITLE: ADOPT A RESOLUTION TO APPROVE THE ALTAMONT SETTLEMENT AGREEMENT EDUCATION ADVISORY BOARD'S $617,625 EXPENDITURE PLAN FOR FISCAL YEAR 2026/2027

SUMMARY
The Altamont Settlement Agreement Education Advisory Board (EAB) annually prepares an Expenditure Plan for consideration by the authorizing entities. In accordance with the Altamont Settlement Agreement, concurrence by the Northern California Recycling Association (NCRA), the Cities of Pleasanton and Livermore, and the Alameda County Board of Supervisors is necessary to fund any proposed allocation from the Education Account. The Expenditure Plan outlines the Board’s proposed funding allocations for recycling and education program grants.

The EAB is requesting that the Pleasanton City Council approve the Expenditure Plan for the upcoming fiscal year (2026/2027).

RECOMMENDATION
Adopt a resolution approving the Altamont Settlement Agreement Education Advisory Board’s $617,625 Expenditure Plan for Fiscal Year 2026/2027.

BACKGROUND
As part of the settlement of litigation over the expansion of the Altamont Landfill, the parties to the litigation agreement (Alameda County, Waste Management of Alameda County, the Cities of Livermore and Pleasanton, and various environmental groups) agreed that the County would impose a surcharge on incoming waste at the Altamont Landfill and Resource Recovery Facility and Vasco Road Landfill. Each January, the fee is reviewed in relation to the Consumer Price Index (CPI) for the most recent 12-month period and may be increased as appropriate. A portion of the fee funds an Education Account, equal to $0.47 per ton from the Altamont Landfill and $0.46 per ton from the Vasco Road Landfill, generating approximately $600,000 annually.

The Altamont Settlement Agreement Education Advisory Board (EAB) meets approximately monthly. The EAB consists of five voting members, including two members from the Northern California Recycling Association (NCRA), one member from the City of Pleasanton, one member from the City of Livermore, and one member from the Alameda County Recycling Board. The Pleasanton representative Board seat is currently vacant, and a board member is being sought.

The EAB can propose allocating funds from the Education Account to support diversion education programs, job training in waste diversion and recycling, and to mitigate the impacts of the Altamont Landfill on the affected neighboring community.

DISCUSSION
The Altamont Settlement Agreement requires the EAB to submit a proposed allocation of funds on an annual basis by April 1. In accordance with the Altamont Settlement Agreement, concurrence by the NCRA, the Cities of Pleasanton and Livermore, and Alameda County is necessary to fund any proposed allocation from the Education Account.

On December 16, 2025, the EAB unanimously approved the proposed 2026/2027 Expenditure Plan (see Exhibit A of Attachment 1). The Expenditure Plan outlines a process for funding mini-grants, annual competitive grants, multi-year grants, Alameda Landowners Against Mismanagement (ALARM) mitigation grants, and Board-initiated projects, setting funding goals for each grant category. For Fiscal Year 2026/2027, the EAB is proposing the following schedule for disbursement of funds, totaling $617,625:

• $300,000 in project grants
• $150,000 in mini-grants
• $70,000 in multi-year grants
• $50,000 in EAB Board-initiated projects
• $12,625 for financial management and administrative support (City of Livermore) • $30,000 for staff support
• $5,000 for EAB communications, website
• $0 for landfill mitigation projects (ALARM – fund has reached the maximum amount of $100,000)

Additional grants may be awarded from unexpended funds allocated for previous fiscal years held in stewardship by the City of Livermore. The current unexpended fund balance is approximately $25,000.

Each year, the EAB provides an Annual Report to the authorizing entities detailing the programs funded the previous year and the success rates for each program. The 2025 Annual Report is available in Attachment 2. Pleasanton has encouraged the EAB to expand outreach and education about this grant program, to increase community knowledge and opportunities for distributing grant funds within the County. City staff involved in efforts related to waste reduction and recycling have been made aware of the EAB grant program so they may review opportunities and potentially seek grant funds for City-related efforts in the future, as well as share information on the availability of the grant program to interested community groups, nonprofits, educational institutions, and other parties within the city that may benefit from this available funding. The annual grant application period typically runs from January to March.

Information on the EAB and its grant program is available at http://www.altamonteab.org/.

EQUITY AND SUSTAINABILITY
This item aligns with the City's equity and sustainability goals by supporting environmentally beneficial efforts throughout the county to improve waste diversion and recycling, with a substantial portion of the funds allocated to school districts and non-profits in disadvantaged communities throughout Alameda County.

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

STRATEGIC PLAN ALIGNMENT
This action is aligned with the City's ONE Pleasanton Strategic Plan goal of Investing in Our Environment, which includes a focus on environmental stewardship.

FISCAL IMPACT
There is no financial impact to the City associated with this action. The funding source for the EAB grant recipients is the Altamont Settlement Agreement Education Account. Alameda County will release the funds following approval from NCRA, the Cities of Pleasanton and Livermore, and the Alameda County Board of Supervisors. The 2026/2027 Expenditure Plan proposes allocating $617,625 for EAB grants and administration.

Altamont Settlement Agreement
Education Advisory Board
2026/2027 Expenditure Plan
December 5, 2025

Plan Summary
The Altamont Landfill Settlement Agreement created the
Altamont Education Advisory Board to propose allocation of funds in the Education Account for diversion education
programs, job training in the field of waste diversion and recycling and mitigating the impacts of the landfill operations on the affected neighboring community. Funds generated from the approximate $0.47 per ton surcharge originating from the Altamont Landfill and approximate $0.46 originating from the Vasco Road Landfill, which are expected to amount to
approximately $600,000 annually. This per ton surcharge fee will be increased based on the consumer price index effective January 1, 2026.

The Need
The Altamont Landfill and Vasco Road Landfill accept
material for disposal from Alameda County jurisdictions, and from the city of San Ramon. Funding programs in diversion education and job training in waste diversion and recycling throughout the landfill service area will preserve the life of the landfill and save resources.

Target Sectors
• Environmental education programs that serve schools
• Non-formal environmental education programs,
serving students K-12
• Community-based environmental education programs
• Job training programs in the field of waste diversion and recycling
• Support to institutions and communities required to
conform to new state laws, such as SB 1383
Funding Goals
• Allocate $500,000 per year for education and job
training programs in waste prevention, source
reduction, reuse, recycling, composting, and
procurement of recycled content products.
• Report measurable results to the Northern California
Recycling Association (NCRA), Alameda County
Board of Supervisors and cities of Livermore and
Pleasanton on an annual basis.
• Provide up to two cents ($0.02) of every forty-five
cents ($0.45) of the Education Account to Alameda
Landowners Against Mismanagement (ALARM) for
landfill mitigation projects (pursuant to Settlement
Agreement sec. 7.3.3)
• The EAB would like to recognize the City of
Livermore for its efforts to share in the cost in support of the mission of the EAB by agreeing to provide
fiscal and administrative support consistent with
Section 7.6.2 of the Settlement Agreement, which is in
the public interest and allows for up to 2% of the
annual receipts to be spent on administrative costs.

Objectives
Grants and projects:
 Mini-grants – The mini-grant program awards up to $5,000 to all eligible projects that meet award criteria up to the funding allocation amount. In 2025-26, mini-grants
supported environmental science programs and school
recycling and composting infrastructure projects.
 Project grants – The annual grant program would award competitive grants up to $50,000 for projects that would make significant contributions to the development of
sustainable diversion education programs and job training in waste prevention and recycling. Types of projects could include: curriculum development, district-wide diversion education programs, job training programs, and
community-based programs.
 Multiple year grants – Allow applicants for the annual grant program, to propose multiple year grants for up to three years of on-going support.
 Board initiated projects – Board initiated projects include projects for which a separate solicitation will need to be performed or special projects to be developed by the Board that fulfill a special niche or program area not addressed by the grants program. Types of projects could include job training partnerships, outreach programs, video and
website development, and joint projects with other
agencies.

Waste Management Authority and Source Reduction and
Recycling Board may have differing priorities that
dominate the program offerings.
 The Education Account has limited funds that must be
stretched over a large service area.

Background
In 1999, the cities of Livermore and Pleasanton, the Sierra Club and the Northern California Recycling Association (NCRA) entered into a settlement agreement with Alameda County and Altamont Landfill. The Altamont Landfill Settlement Agreement created the Altamont Education Advisory Board to propose allocation of funds in the Education Account for recycling education programs, job training in the field of waste prevention and recycling and mitigating the impacts of the landfill operations in the affected community.

Item #4

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT

April 21, 2026
Community and Economic Development

TITLE: ADOPT A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING (1) CONTINUED PARTICIPATION OF

THE CITY OF PLEASANTON IN THE ALAMEDA COUNTY HOME CONSORTIUM AND (2) EXECUTION OF THE NECESSARY DOCUMENTS TO MAINTAIN

ELIGIBILITY OF THE CONSORTIUM FOR HOME PROGRAM FUNDS IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE NATIONAL AFFORDABLE HOUSING ACT OF 1990

SUMMARY
The City needs to renew the cooperative agreement with Alameda County to continue Pleasanton's participation in the Alameda County HOME Consortium for the next three fiscal years (2027, 2028, and 2029). The proposed action is necessary for the City to continue receiving an annual federal HOME grant for affordable housing projects and activities.

RECOMMENDATION
Adopt a resolution authorizing the renewal of a cooperative agreement with Alameda County to participate in the Alameda County HOME Consortium for the purpose of receiving federal HOME funds for affordable housing development for Fiscal Years 2027, 2028, and 2029.

BACKGROUND
The Home Investment Partnership Program (HOME) was established through the Cranston- Gonzalez National Affordable Housing Act of 1990 to provide funding for the new construction or substantial rehabilitation of affordable housing. The program is separate from other federal programs, such as the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) program.

When the HOME program was first established, the only cities in Alameda County that met the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) criteria for an independent HOME funding allocation were Oakland and Berkeley. To attain eligibility to receive a HOME funds allocation, the remaining smaller jurisdictions in Alameda County entered into an agreement in 1993 to form the Alameda County HOME Consortium. The Consortium provided the necessary mass to qualify as a "jurisdiction" for the purpose of receiving HOME funds.

Pleasanton has been a member of the Alameda County HOME Consortium since 1993, and has participated in the HOME program through an existing cooperative agreement with Alameda County, which was approved by the City Council in 1993 and renewed every three years. The last three-year cooperative agreement was approved in 2023. The agreement delegated to the City Manager the authority to perform the necessary administrative functions related to the HOME program during the terms of the past three-year cooperative agreements.

The current cooperative agreement expires on June 30, 2027.

Through this participation, the City has been eligible to receive approximately $130,000 of HOME funds each year. The use of these funds over the past 25 years is shown in Attachment 3, and has included contributions to affordable housing projects, and in more recent years,

ongoing funding of rental subsidies (Rapid Rehousing Program) and the City's Housing Rehabilitation Loan program.

DISCUSSION
With the start of a new three-year term in FY 2027-29 (beginning July 1, 2027), the County has requested that each participating jurisdiction renew its participation in the Consortium by renewing its cooperative agreement. HUD regulations require the agreements to be in place at least one year before the start of the fiscal year.

The updated agreement is included as Attachment 2. It is substantially the same as the current agreement and would confirm Pleasanton's continued participation as a member of the Alameda County HOME Consortium for the next three fiscal years (2027, 2028, and 2029).

Pleasanton would continue to receive a formula allocation of HOME funds, expected to be approximately $130,000 per year based on recent allocations, but which will vary each year with federal funding trends.

The cooperative agreement designates Alameda County as the lead agency and representative member of the Consortium, as required by HUD. The City Manager would continue to serve as the City's designated recipient for all communication regarding the HOME program. The City's Housing Manager would continue to attend bi-monthly meetings of the HOME Technical Advisory Committee (TAC), a committee composed of representatives from all jurisdictions in the Consortium that reviews funding proposals and provides recommendations on policies and spending priorities.

The term of the agreement would be three fiscal years (July 1, 2027, through June 30, 2030), the minimum period allowed by HUD. As with the prior agreement, the renewed agreement would authorize the City Manager to take all necessary administrative actions to carry out the City's participation in the HOME Consortium during the next three years. Specific decisions regarding the use of HOME funds would still be subject to review and approval by the City Council.

In addition to making the City eligible to receive HOME funds, one of the continued benefits of the City's participation in the HOME Consortium is the partial fulfillment of the City's obligation under HUD's Consolidated Plan strategy. Since the 1990s, the City has participated jointly with the Consortium to submit the five-year Consolidated Plan and annual Action Plan to HUD.

These detailed documents are required for both the HOME and CDBG programs. Participation in the Consortium promotes coordination of housing and community development efforts throughout the county and reduces the administrative burden on individual jurisdictions by allowing the submittal of consolidated planning and reporting documents to HUD.

EQUITY AND SUSTAINABILITY
The action directly implements the Housing Element that serves as the City’s strategy for addressing its housing needs for residents at all income levels. Housing Element Policy 3.3 preserves the affordability of restricted units affordable to extremely low-, very low-, and low- income households for the longest term feasible, including requiring units to be deed-restricted in perpetuity whenever allowable, to minimize the risk of affordable units being converted to market-rate housing over time.

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

STRATEGIC PLAN ALIGNMENT
This action advances the ONE Pleasanton Citywide Strategic Plan, Goal E: Building a Community Where Everyone Belongs:
• Strategy 6 – 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
• Strategy 12 – Implement the results of the Human Services Needs Assessment and streamline housing, human services, and community grant programs to increase program participation and access.

FISCAL IMPACT
Approval of the attached agreement with the County will enable the City to maintain its eligibility to receive an annual grant of HOME funds estimated at approximately $130,000 per year for the next three years. As per the current agreement, five percent of the City's annual HOME grant (approximately $6,500) would go to the County as the City's contribution toward central administration of the HOME program by the County.

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT

April 21, 2026
Community and Economic Development

TITLE: ADOPT A RESOLUTION APPROVING THE 10-YEAR ALAMEDA COUNTY

TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION MASTER PROGRAMS FUNDING

AGREEMENT FOR MEASURE BB AND VEHICLE REGISTRATION FEES AND

THE ONE-YEAR MASTER PROGRAMS FUNDING AGREEMENT FOR MEASURE

B, AND AUTHORIZE THE CITY MANAGER TO EXECUTE THE AGREEMENTS

SUMMARY
The Alameda County Transportation Commission (Alameda CTC) requires an update to the Master Programs Funding Agreements. These new agreements will replace the existing agreement between Alameda CTC and the City of Pleasanton and serve as the contracts for the distribution and receipt of Measure B and Measure BB transportation sales tax and Vehicle Registration Fee (VRF) revenues.

RECOMMENDATION
Adopt a resolution approving the 10-year Alameda CTC Master Programs Funding Agreement for Measure BB and VRF, and the 1-year Master Programs Funding Agreement for Measure B, and authorize the City Manager to execute the agreements.

BACKGROUND
Alameda CTC is responsible for the distribution of revenues generated through the Measure B, Measure BB, and the Vehicle Registration Fee (VRF) Programs. Over half of these revenues are distributed by formula directly to twenty local jurisdictions to support locally managed transportation, bicycle and pedestrian, transit, and paratransit programs.

In order to receive Measure BB/VRF “Direct Local Distribution” (DLD) funds, all recipients are required to maintain a Master Programs Funding Agreement (MPFA) with the Alameda CTC.

The City of Pleasanton approved the current MPFA in 2016, and the ten-year agreement expires on June 30, 2026. To ensure consistent implementation across all DLD funds and to continue uninterrupted distribution of Measure BB and VRF funds to recipients, Alameda CTC has provided two MPFA’s. There is a 10-year MPFA for Measure BB and VRF and a 1-year MPFA for Measure B to allow for the final expenditure of the existing balance of $238,720. (This remaining amount was identified in the City's Audited Financial Statement for Fiscal Year Ending June 30, 2025).

DISCUSSION
New Master Programs Funding Agreements have been developed for adoption by all local jurisdictions, the County, and transit operators that are current recipients of Measure B, Measure BB, and VRF Programmatic Pass-through funds.

These agreements are nearly identical to the 2016 MPFA, with the main exception of removing

Measure B from the 10-year agreement and including it as a separate 1-year agreement to ensure all Measure B funds are expended prior to July 1, 2027.

The only other significant change is the integration of performance measures in the annual reporting. This effort aims to improve efficiency in the recipient agencies’ reporting requirements under the agreements and in Alameda CTC’s oversight of expenditure of funds.

EQUITY AND SUSTAINABILITY
These two Master Programs Funding Agreements (Measure B and Measure BB/VRF) support equity and sustainability outcomes by requiring documented, reportable investments in active transportation, safety, and state-of-good-repair; tracking investments in equity communities; and ensuring transparent, public-facing communications and oversight of how funds are used.

OUTREACH
No public outreach was conducted specifically for this administrative item. However, both agreements include clear public information and engagement requirements, including:
• Participation in a Public Awareness Program in partnership with Alameda CTC and/or its community advisory committees, to ensure the public can identify which projects/programs are funded by these transportation tax and fee revenues. • Project/vehicle signage (where practical) noting Measure B / Measure BB / VRF funding, improving transparency and public trust.
• Website posting requirements to provide current information on how the City is using the funds.
• Responsiveness to oversight bodies and inquiries, including making staff available to report/answer questions before the Commission, Independent Watchdog Committee, and/or community advisory committees as applicable.
• Annual compliance reporting and performance reporting processes that also function as a formal accountability and communications channel.

STRATEGIC PLAN ALIGNMENT
Approval of the Measure B and Measure BB/VRF Master Programs Funding Agreements supports implementation of the City’s ONE Pleasanton Strategic Plan by enabling continued investment in street maintenance, multimodal safety and connectivity, and accessible mobility programs while requiring strong fiscal controls and public transparency. The agreements require annual independently-audited financial statements, annual compliance/performance reporting, website updates, and participation in Alameda CTC’s public awareness efforts. The agreements also embed equity and sustainability accountability through required reporting on investments in defined equity communities, performance reporting on safety investments on priority networks, and (for Measure BB Local Streets and Roads funds) a required minimum 15 percent annual investment benefiting bicyclists and pedestrians.

FISCAL IMPACT
There is no immediate fiscal impact as part of this action; however, execution of the Master Programs Funding Agreement prior to July 1, 2026, will allow an uninterrupted flow of transportation funds to the City from Measure BB and VRF revenues and continued expenditure of Measure B, Measure BB, and VRF funds.

EXHIBIT A
Alameda CTC Agreement No. A26-00XX

2026 MPFA

MEASURE BB / VEHICLE REGISTRATION FEE

MASTER PROGRAMS FUNDING AGREEMENT
between the

ALAMEDA COUNTY TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION
and the

CITY OF PLEASANTON

This Measure BB / Vehicle Registration Fee Master Programs Funding Agreement (“AGREEMENT”), effective the 1st of July 1, 2026, is entered into by and between the Alameda County Transportation Commission (“ALAMEDA CTC”) and the City of Pleasanton (“RECIPIENT”).

RECITALS

A. On November 2, 2010, the voters of Alameda County approved Measure F, the Vehicle Registration Fee (“VRF”) Program, pursuant to Section 65089.20 of the Government Code, thereby authorizing the Alameda County Congestion Management Agency (“ACCMA”) to administer the proceeds from a $10 per year vehicle registration fee on each annual motor-vehicle registration or renewal of registration in Alameda County, starting in May 2011, six months following approval of Measure F. 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.

B. Funds raised by the VRF will be used exclusively for local transportation purposes in Alameda County that have a relationship or benefit to the owners of motor vehicles paying the VRF, including projects and programs identified in the expenditure plan approved by the voters as part of Measure F (the “VRF Expenditure Plan”).

C. On June 24, 2010, the Alameda County Transportation Improvement Authority (“ACTIA”) and ACCMA took the final actions to create ALAMEDA CTC, a joint powers authority, with all of ACTIA and ACCMA’s functions and responsibilities. Pursuant to resolutions adopted by the ACCMA and ACTIA Boards and the governing body of the ALAMEDA CTC (COMMISSION”), 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, including duties related to the VRF Program.

D. On November 4, 2014, the voters of Alameda County, pursuant to the Local Transportation Authority and Improvement Act, California Public Utilities Code Section 180000 et seq., approved Measure BB, thereby authorizing ALAMEDA CTC to administer the proceeds from a one-half of one percent transaction and use tax applicable from April 1, 2015 through March 31, 2022, and a full one percent tax applicable from April 1, 2022 through March 31, 2045. The tax proceeds will be used to pay for the investments outlined in Alameda County’s 30-Year Transportation Expenditure Plan (“Measure BB Expenditure Plan”), as it may be amended.

E. This AGREEMENT delineates the requirements of the Measure BB and VRF Direct Local Distribution (“DLD”) funds that are directly allocated to local jurisdictions and transit operators, as

Alameda CTC Agreement No. A26-00XX

2026 MPFA

authorized by the VRF Expenditure Plan, and the Measure BB Expenditure Plan. Discretionary funds identified in these expenditure plans are not the subject of this AGREEMENT, and RECIPIENT will be required to enter into a separate agreement for those funds.

F. The parties to this AGREEMENT previously entered into a Master Programs Funding Agreement applicable to DLD funds distributed by ALAMEDA CTC, which expires as of June 30, 2026 (“ORIGINAL AGREEMENT”). This AGREEMENT is generally consistent with the ORIGINAL AGREEMENT, but the parties have determined that it is appropriate to enter into a new agreement rather than extending the ORIGINAL AGREEMENT.

MEASURE B

MASTER PROGRAMS FUNDING AGREEMENT
between the

ALAMEDA COUNTY TRANSPORTATION COMMISSION
and the

CITY OF PLEASANTON

This Measure B Master Programs Funding Agreement (“AGREEMENT”), effective the 1st of July 1, 2026, is entered into by and between the Alameda County Transportation Commission (“ALAMEDA CTC”) and the City of Pleasanton (“RECIPIENT”).

RECITALS

A. On November 7, 2000, the voters of Alameda County, pursuant to the provisions of the Local Transportation Authority and Improvement Act, California Public Utilities Code Section 180000 et seq., approved the reauthorization of Measure B, thereby authorizing Alameda County Transportation Improvement Authority (“ACTIA”) to administer the proceeds from a continued one-half cent transaction and use tax (“Measure B”).

B. The Measure B sales tax was collected for a period of 20 years from April 1, 2002, through March 31, 2022. The tax proceeds must be used to pay for the programs and projects outlined in Alameda County’s 20-Year Transportation Expenditure Plan (the “Measure B Expenditure Plan”), as it may be amended.

C. On June 24, 2010, ACTIA and ACCMA took the final actions to create ALAMEDA CTC, a joint powers authority, with all of ACTIA and ACCMA’s functions and responsibilities. Pursuant to resolutions adopted by the ACCMA and ACTIA Boards and the governing body of the ALAMEDA CTC (“COMMISSION”), 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, including duties related to the Measure B Program.

D. This AGREEMENT delineates the requirements of the Measure B Direct Local Distribution (“DLD”) funds that have been directly allocated to local jurisdictions and transit operators, as authorized by the Measure B Expenditure Plan. Discretionary funds identified in this expenditure plan are not the subject of this AGREEMENT, and RECIPIENT will be required to enter into a separate agreement for those funds.

E. RECIPIENT’s Measure B Audited Financial Statement for Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2025 reports a Measure B DLD fund balance of $238,720.

F. The parties to this AGREEMENT previously entered into a Master Programs Funding Agreement applicable to DLD funds distributed by ALAMEDA CTC, which expires as of June 30, 2026 (“ORIGINAL AGREEMENT”). The parties have determined that it is appropriate to enter into a new agreement rather than extending the ORIGINAL AGREEMENT, in part because the ORIGINAL AGREEMENT governed separate ALAMEDA CTC funds which will be distributed for many years after the deadline for

Alameda CTC Agreement No. A26-00XX

2026 MPFA

expenditure of the funds governed by this AGREEMENT, and those funds shall now be governed by a separate agreement between the parties.

G. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in the ORIGINAL AGREEMENT, RECIPIENT is granted until June 30, 2027 to expend its remaining Measure B DLD Balance, pursuant to action taken on February 26, 2026 by the COMMISSION to complete the closeout of the RECIPIENT’s Measure B DLD program.

This AGREEMENT was originally approved by the COMMISSION on February 26, 2026.

NOW, THEREFORE, it is mutually agreed by and between the parties as follows:

ARTICLE I: MEASURE B DLD PROGRAM FUND BALANCE

1. This AGREEMENT shall be effective as of July 1, 2026. The ORIGINAL AGREEMENT shall govern and control all expenditures of DLD distributions made on or before June 30, 2026. There will no further distributions of DLD funds from Measure B after such effective date.

2. This AGREEMENT authorizes RECIPIENT to expend its remaining Measure B DLD Program balance as stated in RECIPIENT’s Measure B Audited Financial Statement for Fiscal Year Ended June 30, 2025 as summarized in Table A: DLD Program Fund Balance Summary.

Table A: DLD Program Fund Balance Summary
DLD Program Fund Balance
Bicycle and Pedestrian Program $238,720
Total $238,720

3. The Measure B DLD Program Fund Balance must be expended fully by June 30, 2027. Any portion of such Fund Balance which is not expended by that date shall revert to ALAMEDA CTC.

4. The Measure B DLD Program funds must be used in accordance with the applicable Bicycle and Pedestrian Program Implementation Guidelines, Local Streets and Roads Program Implementation Guidelines, Mass Transit Program Implementation Guidelines, and Paratransit Program Implementation Guidelines, which define eligibility and fund usage guidelines, definitions, additional requirements, and guideline adoption details. Said guidelines are hereby incorporated into this AGREEMENT by reference.

ARTICLE II: PAYMENTS AND EXPENDITURES

A. ALAMEDA CTC’S DUTIES AND OBLIGATIONS

1. ALAMEDA CTC shall provide for an independent annual audit of its financial statements including revenues and expenditures and also of its calculation of the allocation formula for distributing Measure B revenues to various recipients and render an annual report to the COMMISSION within 180 days following the close of the fiscal year.

Alameda CTC Agreement No. A26-00XX

ALAMEDA CTC and its representatives, agents and nominees shall have the absolute right at any reasonable time to inspect and copy any accounting records related to such funds, except to the extent specifically prohibited by applicable law.

3. RECIPIENT shall expend Measure B funds in compliance with the Timely Use of Funds Policies for Direct Local Distributions, as approved by the COMMISSION, and as they may be adopted or amended by ALAMEDA CTC from time to time.

C. OTHER EXPENDITURE RESTRICTIONS

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT

April 21, 2026
Finance

TITLE: ACCEPT THE MONTHLY DISBURSEMENTS AND INVESTMENT REPORT FOR FEBRUARY 2026

SUMMARY
Attached is the City of Pleasanton monthly disbursements and investment report for February 2026.

RECOMMENDATION
Accept claim disbursements in the amount of $16,737,977 and the investment report for the month of February 2026.

BACKGROUND
The City's Investment Policy requires the Director of Finance to submit a monthly transaction report to the City Council within 60 days of the end of the reporting period in accordance with California Government Code Section 53607.

The Investment Policy also requires the Director of Finance to submit a quarterly report to the City Council on the status of the City's investment portfolio no later than 45 days after the end of each month. This report shall include the types of investments, the amount of money invested with various institutions, purchase and maturity dates, and yield on investments. The Director of Finance certifies that the investment portfolio is in compliance with the investment policy and that it will meet cash flow needs for the next six months.

This report also includes check and electronic payment information for February 2026.

DISCUSSION
The monthly disbursements and investment report provides transparency of the City’s financial transactions and payments for review by the City Council. Please note that certain federal agency securities that were purchased before the COVID-19 pandemic with lower interest rates were sold for a loss in the current fiscal year, with the intent of achieving higher yields over time. As a result, the investment return through February 2026 is only 2.21%, but the overall investment return for FY 2025/26 is expected to be higher at the end of the year.

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

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

STRATEGIC PLAN ALIGNMENT

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT

April 21, 2026
Fire

TITLE: PUBLIC HEARING: RECEIVE ANY PROTESTS AND ADOPT A RESOLUTION TO APPROVE THE 2026 WEED ABATEMENT PROGRAM AND AUTHORIZE THE

ABATEMENT OF WEEDS, RUBBISH, DIRT, OR REFUSE UPON OR IN FRONT

OF CERTAIN DESCRIBED PROPERTIES WITHIN THE CITY OF PLEASANTON

SUMMARY
On March 17, 2026, as part of the 2026 Livermore-Pleasanton Fire Department (LPFD) Weed Abatement Program, the City Council adopted Resolution No. 2026-008 declaring that weeds, dirt, rubbish and refuse on or in front of specified properties constituted a public nuisance, ordering the abatement thereof, and setting a public hearing to hear objections to the proposed abatement. The purpose of this public hearing is for the City Council to hear and consider objections and order that the weeds be abated by a contractor.

RECOMMENDATION
Public Hearing: Receive any protests and adopt a resolution to approve the 2026 Weed Abatement Program and authorize the abatement of weeds, rubbish, dirt, or refuse upon or in front of certain described properties within the city of Pleasanton.

BACKGROUND
The weed abatement program, provided in Government Code Sections 39560 - 39588, establishes a mechanism for ensuring the removal of weeds, dirt, rubbish and refuse on specified properties that constitute a public nuisance. All the owners of properties included in the attached Exhibit A have been mailed a notice to abate the nuisance on their parcels.

In cases where there was an insufficient mailing address, the notice was posted conspicuously on the property. The notice included the public hearing date of April 21, 2026, and the deadline of May 31, 2026. Applicable weed abatement standards were also included depending upon which type of parcel was identified. Parcels have been categorized into three areas:
agricultural, parcels within the Wildland-Urban interface, and all others falling outside these two categories.

DISCUSSION
At this hearing, the City Council will consider the proposed abatement on the enumerated properties. Staff recommends that the City Council overrule any objections or amend the list of properties to be abated and order the abatement. STaff further recommends that the City Council adopt the attached resolution, as amended (if at all), that orders a contractor to abate the weeds on the properties attached in Exhibit A.

After this hearing, fire inspectors will survey each parcel listed for compliance. A contractor will abate the weeds if abatement has not occurred by May 31, 2026. If related litigation (e.g., an abatement warrant) is required, the property owners will be responsible not only for the

abatement costs but also for all related attorneys' fees, expenses, and costs. At a public hearing this summer, staff will recommend that the City Council order that any unpaid abatement costs be a special assessment and a lien imposed on the properties requiring abatement.

EQUITY AND SUSTAINABILITY
The adoption of this resolution will enable LPFD to further its commitment to creating a safe and sustainable community by mitigating the risk of fire hazards arising from vegetation growth. This step will ensure the safety of our neighborhoods and will promote a healthier and more resilient environment for all residents.

OUTREACH
After the approval of Resolution 2026-008, staff sent a written notice to property owners regarding non-compliant parcels on their property. The notice declared these parcels as a nuisance. Along with this declaration, a notice about the public hearing scheduled for April 21, 2026, was sent to the property owners, which included information about the May 31, 2026, deadline to complete the abatement. The notice contained details about the weed abatement standards and a list of contractors for reference.

In mid-May, staff will send a reminder notice to the parcel owners to abate their parcels. During the first two weeks of June, staff will inspect the parcels for compliance. If a parcel does not comply with the standards, a violation notice will be sent through certified mail to the owner, and a notice of intent to abate hazardous vegetation on the parcel will also be posted. Staff will re-inspect the parcel, and if the parcel still fails to comply with the vegetation standard, a final notice will be sent through certified mail.

If the parcel is still non-compliant, staff will refer the parcel to the City Contractor and send a notice of the abatement action performed, the public hearing, and an invoice through certified mail to the parcel owner for a public hearing set on September 15, 2026.

STRATEGIC PLAN ALIGNMENT
This action advances the ONE Pleasanton Strategic Plan goals of Safeguarding Our City, Strategy 6 - Implement high-priority items from the 2022-2026 Livermore-Pleasanton Fire Department Strategic Plan.

FISCAL IMPACT
Property owners are invoiced for all work performed in addition to an administrative charge and, if related litigation is required, all attorneys’ fees, expenses, and costs. Unpaid amounts become a special assessment on the property owner’s tax bill. All costs of the Weed Abatement Program are budgeted in the professional services account.

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT

April 21, 2026
Library and Recreation

TITLE: PUBLIC HEARING: ADOPT A RESOLUTION UPDATING THE MASTER FEE SCHEDULE SECTION VIII. RECREATION, B. FIELD RENTAL FEES, AND F.

MISCELLANEOUS RECREATION FEES

SUMMARY
California cities impose fees for providing services and activities through provisions of the State Constitution. Agencies are allowed to set fees at rates providing fair and reasonable recovery of costs incurred in providing the services, thereby minimizing or eliminating the use of general tax revenues. City user fees and service charges are based on a variety of criteria, including changes in the Consumer Price Index, fee studies, and the full cost of providing the service. This ensures the fee levels are at or below the cost of providing the services.

Attachment 1 includes recommended fee updates based on these criteria.

RECOMMENDATION
Adopt a resolution updating the Master Fee Schedule Section VIII. Recreation, B. Field Rental Fees, and F. Miscellaneous Recreation Fees.

BACKGROUND
The City of Pleasanton periodically reviews and updates the Master Fee Schedule to ensure fees remain fair, reasonable, and aligned with the cost of providing services.

The existing Master Fee Schedule uses Maximum General Fund Subsidies for creating fees.

This methodology works well for Section VIII. Recreation. A. Recreational Program Fees, which govern the fees set in the Activities Guide for classes, programs, and events. However, in the other categories, including field rental fees, this methodology has caused confusion for some customers.

Section VIII. Recreation, B. Field Rental Fees
In December 2014, a memorandum of understanding (MOU) was created in collaboration with participating co-sponsored user groups in coordination with fundraising efforts for the Bernal Community Park sports fields. Section III.10 of this MOU states, “[i]n recognition of the Sports Groups' involvement in the fundraising campaign, the City agrees that during the term of ten years after the Park’s opening, it will not assess field use fees for the Sports Groups, or for visiting teams participating in a tournament sponsored by a participating Sports Group.” Eligible Sports Groups include Pleasanton Little League (PLL), Pleasanton Girls Softball League (PGSL), RAGE Girls Soccer Club (RAGE), Ballistic Boys Soccer Club (BUSC), Pride Girls Lacrosse (PGL), Pleasanton Lacrosse Club for Boys (PLC), and Pleasanton Junior Football League (PJFL). The agreement will end on November 1, 2026.

Financial consultant NBS analyzed and advised on field use fees in 2024. This study found the actual costs of athletic field maintenance, including supplies, staffing (at fiscal year (FY)

2025 rates), and replacement (synthetic turf), as follows:

Table 1. Actual Cost of Field Maintenance
Field Type Maintenance Cost/Hour
Grass $49.96
Synthetic $79.58

This analysis was reviewed by the Parks and Recreation Commission on November 14, 2024.

On February 4, 2025, the City Council adopted athletic field fees for co-sponsored user groups as part of the Master Fee Schedule to help offset rising field maintenance costs at a rate of $3.75 per hour for grass fields, with implementation beginning on July 1, 2025. Fees for synthetic turf use were not charged to the co-sponsored user groups covered by the Bernal Community Park MOU. The fee adopted in the MFS for FY 2024/25 for co-sponsored groups not covered by the MOU was $48 per hour. At this same meeting, City Council requested an update of assessed fees in the first year of implementation and a recommendation for future field fees.

Currently, the City has eight co-sponsored groups that utilize fields, including PLL, PGSL, RAGE, BUSC, PGL, PLC, PJFL, and Cricket for Cubs.

Since July 1, 2025, the Summer (July), Fall (Aug-Nov), and Winter (Dec-Feb) seasons’ field allocations, associated invoicing, and payments have been completed. The Spring (March- June) allocation process and invoicing will be finalized in March 2026.

From July 1 through December 31, 2025, co-sponsored field fees generated $30,540.

Projected co-sponsored revenue for the spring season, January 1 through June 30, 2026, is approximately $53,690, for a total of $84,230 in FY 2025/26. The co-sponsored user groups projected hours of use for field space in FY 2025/26 is 27,029. The total consisted of 21,155 hours for grass field usage and 5,874 hours for synthetic turf usage. At the maintenance rates listed above, the City's field maintenance costs were approximately $1.5M for co-sponsored use in 2025. The tables below show actual and projected revenue from each co-sponsored organization, renter category, and field type.

Table 2. July-December 31, 2025 Actuals - Revenue and Hours Used - All Renter Categories

Table 3. January 1 – June 30, 2026 Projected Revenue and Hours Used - All Renter Categories

*This first year of revenue total does not include synthetic turf fields usage at Bernal Community Park for eligible sports groups per the Bernal Community Park MOU.

**The first six months of grass field revenue were not collected from RAGE girls soccer and Ballistic boys soccer due to club registrations for the fall 2025 season occurring before the

implementation date of July 1, 2025.

***Cricket for Cubs is not a part of the Bernal Community Park MOU and the only co- sponsored group currently paying for synthetic field use.

Field Usage Efficiencies
During the first year of field fee implementation, City Staff and co-sponsored group representatives met regularly to provide guidance and increase communication. Co-sponsored groups have made outstanding efforts to improve scheduling accuracy, provide more field-use givebacks during the sports season, and reserve field space more efficiently. The new field- use allocation process has reduced the number of unused reserved hours and increased field accessibility for general community users and non-co-sponsored groups.

During the first six months of implementation, co-sponsored groups were allocated a total of 19,203 hours. The co-sponsored groups returned approximately 3,500 hours through give- backs. This increased field availability for the community and additional revenue opportunities for the City. Through continued collaboration and strong efforts from the co-sponsored groups, City staff is confident that further field use efficiencies will be realized during spring and beyond.

Section VIII. F. Miscellaneous Fees
The City does not currently list fees for facility rental add-ons or for cancellations made more than 30 days prior to the rental.

DISCUSSION
Section VIII. Recreation, B. Field Rental Fees
Given actual costs for field maintenance and replacement, City staff and the Parks and Recreation Commission recommend a three-year progressive fee schedule. The progressive schedule will reduce General Fund subsidy by approximately 5 percent each year, while enabling the co-sponsored groups to prepare for the increase. The proposed fee schedule was unanimously supported by the Co-Sponsored User Groups and the Parks and Recreation Commission and moves the City toward the benchmark field fees of neighboring cities with comparable co-sponsorship programs. It also converts Maximum General Fund Subsidies to dollar amounts for improved transparency and user experience.

2028/29 $18.00 77.5%* $280,989* $82,008

*The General Fund subsidy was calculated at the 2024/25 expenses and personnel rates. **The number of estimated hours for synthetic turf use was lowered from FY 2025/26 estimates due to the projected increase in usage efficiency that is projected once fees are charged for these fields. These estimates were calculated using an estimated 4,556 hours.

While still highly subsidized, this approach begins to reduce the General Fund subsidy and aligns more closely with the field fee rates of neighboring agencies. The intent is to increase the cost gradually without placing financial strain on the co-sponsor groups.

At full cost recovery rates, the City would generate approximately $1.4 million in revenue from co-sponsored user groups for their current field usage. At area average rates, the City would generate over $500,000 in revenue from co-sponsored user groups.

Section VIII. Recreation - F. Miscellaneous Fees
To align with current practices and increase transparency for the community, staff also recommends listing the hourly rates for add-on amenities for facility rentals. The current MFS simply states, "actual costs for equipment." Staff recommends the following additions to Section VIII. Recreation - F. Miscellaneous Fees:

OUTREACH
At the January 12, 2026 Co-Sponsored User Group Meeting, staff led a group discussion regarding the proposed three-year co-sponsored field rental fee schedule. Staff solicited feedback and ideas regarding the time frame and fees. Co-sponsored user group representatives in attendance supported the proposal. Following the meeting, staff emailed each co-sponsored user group individually to review the proposal again, solicit further feedback, and meet with interested groups to discuss. The conversations were very positive and collaborative, with each co-sponsored organization supporting the proposed three-year field fee schedule to aid their planning.

The Recreation portion of the MFS update was heard by the Parks and Recreation Commission at their February 12, 2026 meeting.

The Civic Arts portion of the MFS update was heard by the Civic Arts Commission at their March 2, 2026 meeting.

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT

April 21, 2026
Library and Recreation

TITLE: ADOPT A RESOLUTION AUTHORIZING THE APPLICATION TO THE STATE OF

CALIFORNIA LIBRARY LITERACY SERVICES GRANT IN THE AMOUNT OF $42,856 FOR FISCAL YEAR 2026/27 AND AUTHORIZING THE CITY MANAGER

TO ACCEPT AND ALLOCATE THE FUNDS

SUMMARY
The State of California Library Literacy Services (CLLS) directs State and federal funds to support adult literacy in public libraries. Staff recommends that the City Council authorize the application for $42,856 in CLLS grant funding to support Pleasanton Library’s Adult Literacy Services for fiscal year (FY) 2026/27. If awarded, acceptance of funds will be authorized by the City Manager and available from July 1, 2026, through June 30, 2027.

RECOMMENDATION
Adopt a resolution authorizing the application to the State of California Library Literacy Services Grant in the amount of $42,856 for fiscal year 2026/27 and authorizing the City Manager to accept and allocate the funds.

BACKGROUND
Since 1985, the Pleasanton Public Library has offered adult literacy services. In 2006, the City began receiving annual State of California Library Literacy Services (CLLS) grant funds to support these efforts. For fiscal year (FY) 2025/26, the City received $45,722 for Adult Literacy Services and $61,071 for English as a Second Language (ESL) Services, two interrelated literacy programs collectively known as Pleasanton Reads. The State grant for ESL services was a limited-term grant opportunity and will end on June 30, 2026.

Community Need
Pleasanton has approximately 80,000 residents. Of these, approximately 44 percent speak a language other than English at home, reflecting the community’s linguistic diversity.

Approximately 5.6 percent of residents speak English less than very well, which can create barriers to accessing services, programs, and information. In addition, approximately 5.3 percent of the population lives below the poverty level. Residents experiencing economic challenges may also face barriers related to educational attainment and access to resources, highlighting the importance of inclusive and accessible community services.

(Sources: U.S. Census Bureau, American Community Survey 2018 to 2022 five-year estimates Table S1601 and Census QuickFacts for Pleasanton, California)

This combination of language, socioeconomic, and educational factors underscores the need to support residents in developing English language skills. Staff has identified the following critical literacy needs in the community:

• Strengthening reading, writing, grammar, comprehension, and vocabulary • Building community connections
• Addressing service gaps not met elsewhere, including access to individual and group tutoring, computers, Wi-Fi, mobile hotspots, printing, books and materials, and meeting space.

Program Impact
In FY 2024/25, 162 trained volunteer tutors provided 8,263 hours of language tutoring to 178 adult learners through Pleasanton Reads. The program is in high demand, with an average of 30 individuals on the waitlist this year, reflecting ongoing community demand for one-on-one language-learning support.

While the City operates the Pleasanton Reads program, CLLS grant funding enhances its reach by supporting intake, volunteer coordination, and instructional resources. Participation in the CLLS-funded program requires that learners:
• Be at least 16 years old and not enrolled in high school or another degree-granting program
• Seek literacy services for themselves in English
• Complete an intake interview and a skills assessment that includes reading and writing in English
• Establish one or more learning goals related to reading and/or writing • Spend most of their instructional time improving reading or writing skills • Attend at least two instructional sessions in the current program period.

To expand its impact, the City collaborates with Pleasanton Unified School District’s Adult School and Las Positas College’s ESL program. While schools offer excellent academic instruction, the Library complements this with one-on-one support focused on individual goals, reading and writing fluency, and conversation skills. Together, these services provide a holistic model that addresses the full range of learner needs.

DISCUSSION
If approved, a resolution for application for FY
2026/27 CLLS grant funding (Attachment 1), would advance the following Adult Literacy Services program goals:
• Provide support for waitlisted learners via resources (conversation groups and book clubs) and referrals to partner agencies for classroom instruction • Participate in CLLS-sponsored trainings and workshops for literacy staff, and promote such opportunities available to volunteers and learners • Collaborate with community partners to close service gaps for learners and provide quality referrals based on learner needs/goals
• Inform learners and volunteers of program, library, and community activities to encourage engagement, foster interpersonal connections, and inspire new language and life goals

• Provide program participants with appropriate materials, resources, meeting space, and technology to support instruction.

Continued CLLS funding will help the library sustain and strengthen this important service, ensuring that adult learners have the tools and support they need to succeed.

EQUITY AND SUSTAINABILITY
Literacy services further equity and belonging in the community by providing resources for community members to learn English language skills, apply for jobs, navigate local services, help their children with schoolwork, build social connections, and participate more fully in civic life.

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

STRATEGIC PLAN ALIGNMENT
This action advances the ONE Pleasanton citywide strategic goal Building a Community Where Everyone Belongs, Strategy 3 – Implement high-priority items from the Library and Recreation Strategic Plan to continue to deliver activities and programs that meet the needs and interests of the community.

FISCAL IMPACT
$42,856 in Adult Literacy Services grant funding revenue and expenditures for personnel and non-personnel expenses will be included in the City’s FY 2026/27 Proposed Mid-Term Budget for Library Services to be allocated in the Miscellaneous Grants account 11652102. Staffing and other program support are also included in the General Fund budget adopted by the Council in June 2025.

CITY COUNCIL AGENDA REPORT

April 21, 2026
Police

TITLE: (1) RECEIVE THE ANNUAL MILITARY EQUIPMENT USE REPORT FOR 2025; (2) INTRODUCE AN ORDINANCE AMENDING ORDINANCE NO. 2238 TO AMEND

THE PLEASANTON POLICE DEPARTMENT'S MILITARY EQUIPMENT USE

POLICY TO ADD EQUIPMENT TO THE POLICY'S MILITARY EQUIPMENT INVENTORY; AND (3) ADOPT A RESOLUTION ACCEPTING THE ANNUAL MILITARY EQUIPMENT USE REPORT FOR 2025 DETERMINING THAT THE CITY'S USE OF MILITARY EQUIPMENT IN 2025 COMPLIED WITH THE

STANDARDS OF APPROVAL AND RENEWING THE MILITARY EQUIPMENT

USE POLICY

SUMMARY
Assembly Bill 481, codified as Government Code sections 7070 through 7075, requires a law enforcement agency to obtain approval from the City Council, by adoption of a Military Equipment Use Policy by ordinance, prior to funding, acquiring, or using military equipment as defined in the law. The law further states that the governing body shall review the ordinance it has adopted pursuant to this section annually and vote to renew it at a regular meeting.

RECOMMENDATION
(1) Receive annual military equipment use report for 2025; (2) introduce and waive first reading of an ordinance amending Ordinance No. 2238 to amend the Pleasanton Police Department’s Military Equipment Use Policy to add equipment to the policy’s military equipment inventory; and (3) adopt a resolution accepting the Annual Military Use Report for 2025 determining that the Pleasanton Police Department’s use of military equipment in 2025 complied with the standards of approval and renewing the Military Equipment Use Policy.

BACKGROUND
Assembly bill (AB) 481 was enacted in 2021 to create consistency for the funding, acquisition, and use of military equipment by law enforcement agencies and to increase transparency, accountability, and oversight.

The bill requires a law enforcement agency to obtain approval of the applicable governing body (City Council) by adopting a Military Equipment Use Policy, as specified, by ordinance at a regular meeting held pursuant to specified open meeting laws, prior to taking certain actions relating to the funding, acquisition, or use of military equipment as defined. Approval was received and the ordinance was adopted by the City Council on July 19, 2022.

The bill also requires an annual review by the City Council to renew or disapprove the acquisition of this equipment, to create a Military Equipment Use Policy, and to publish that policy on the agency’s website.

The Annual Military Equipment Use Report for 2025, which includes the military equipment

inventory, is included with this report as Exhibit A to the Resolution (Attachment 2).

DISCUSSION
Several items deemed to be “military equipment” by AB 481 are currently used by the Pleasanton Police Department and are outlined in this report. Their use is consistent with overall best practices for law enforcement agencies throughout the state and country. These tools have proven effective in enhancing officer safety and reducing risk to community members.

The term “military equipment,” as used in AB 481, does not necessarily indicate equipment used by the military. Items deemed by the bill to be “military equipment” include, but are not limited to, robotic vehicles, armored rescue vehicles, tear gas, less-than-lethal weapons such as beanbag shotguns, 40mm projectiles, and noise/flash diversionary devices. Each of these tools has proven effective in mitigating risk to both the public and officers.

This year, the department intends to purchase three (3) DJI Matrice 4T drones and one (1) DJI Avata 2 drone for real-time aerial video to enhance situational awareness and reduce risk to personnel during elevated-risk incidents, searches for missing or at-risk persons, disaster response, large outdoor incidents, and crime or collision scene documentation. This purchase is funded through the Citizens’ Option for Public Safety (COPS) fund. A proposed ordinance adding this item to the Military Equipment Use Policy’s military equipment inventory is included with this report as Attachment 1.

The Military Equipment Use Policy and Government Code section 7072 require the City to publish annually a military equipment report for the prior calendar year, which includes:
a. A summary of how the military equipment was used and the purpose of its use b. A summary of any complaints or concerns received concerning the military equipment
c. The results of any internal audits, any information about violations of the military equipment use policy, and any actions taken in response d. The total annual cost for each type of military equipment, including acquisition, personnel, training, transportation, maintenance storage, upgrade, and other ongoing costs, and from what source funds will be provided for the military equipment in the calendar year following submission of the annual military equipment report
e. The quantity possessed for each type of military equipment f. Whether the Police Department intends to acquire additional military equipment in the next year and the quantity sought for each type of military equipment.

The Military Equipment Use Policy and Government Code section 7072 also require that within 30 days of submitting and publicly releasing the annual military equipment report, the police department shall hold at least one well-publicized and conveniently located community engagement meeting, at which the public may discuss and ask questions regarding the annual military equipment report and the police department’s funding, acquisition, or use of military equipment.

AB 481 further requires that the governing body review the adopted ordinance approving the

funding, acquisition, and use of military equipment at least annually and vote on whether to renew the ordinance.

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

OUTREACH
The Annual Military Equipment Use Report for 2025 was made publicly available on the City's website on Friday, March 20, 2026. On Tuesday, March 3, 2026, a public meeting was noticed to occur on Thursday, April 2, 2026, and Tuesday, April 14, 2026, to seek community input regarding the Annual Military Equipment Use Report for 2025. The meeting included a presentation of the Annual Military Equipment Use Report for 2025 and an opportunity to discuss and ask questions about the funding, acquisition, or use of specified equipment.

STRATEGIC PLAN ALIGNMENT
This action advances the ONE Pleasanton strategic goal of Safeguarding our City Strategy 1 - Assess the City's overall emergency preparedness capabilities, resources, and tools and implement changes as needed to ensure the City is properly positioned to respond to disasters, and Strategy 5 - Implement high priority items from the 2023-2027 Pleasanton Police Department Strategic Plan.

FISCAL IMPACT
There are no anticipated fiscal impacts from receiving this report. The staff time to facilitate the requirements of AB 481 will be absorbed into the work of existing staff.

MILITARY EQUIPMENT USE REPORT 2025

3 Executive Summary

On September 30, 2021, California Governor Gavin Newsom signed Assembly Bill 481, which requires law enforcement agencies to obtain approval from their governing body (Mayor and City Council) through the adoption of a Military Equipment Use Policy. In compliance with this law, the Pleasanton Police Department must present its Military Equipment Use Policy to the City Council for approval at a regular public meeting before taking certain actions related to the funding, acquisition, or use of military equipment.

Assembly Bill 481 allows the governing body to approve the funding, acquisition, and use of military equipment only if it determines that the equipment meets the standards specified in the law. The City Council reviews the Military Equipment Use Policy and evaluates compliance based on the Annual Military Equipment Use Report.

Finally, AB 481 mandates transparency by requiring that both the Military Equipment Use Policy and the Annual Military Equipment Use Report be published on the Pleasanton Police Department’s website for public access.

Assembly Bill 481
California Government Code section 7072 states the following:

A. A law enforcement agency that receives approval for a military equipment use policy pursuant to Section 7071 shall submit to the governing body an annual military equipment report for each type of military equipment approved by the governing body within one year of approval, and annually thereafter for as long as the military equipment is available for use. The law enforcement agency shall also make each annual military equipment report required by this section publicly available on its internet website for as long as the military equipment is available for use. The annual military equipment report shall, at a minimum, include the following information for the immediately preceding calendar year for each type of military equipment:

a. A summary of how the military equipment was used and the purpose of its use.

b. A summary of any complaints or concerns received concerning the military equipment.

c. The results of any internal audits, any information about violations of the military equipment use policy, and any actions taken in response.

d. The total annual cost for each type of military equipment, including acquisition, personnel, training, transportation, maintenance, storage, upgrade, and other ongoing costs, and from what source funds will be provided for the military equipment in the calendar year following submission of the annual military

4 e. equipment report.

f. The quantity possessed for each type of military equipment.

g. If the law enforcement agency intends to acquire additional military equipment in the next year, the quantity sought for each type of military equipment.

B. Law enforcement agencies shall hold at least one well-publicized and conveniently located community engagement meeting, at which the public may discuss and ask questions regarding the annual military equipment report and the law enforcement agency’s funding, acquisition, or use of military equipment.

The Pleasanton Police Department remains committed to transparency, fostering public trust, building community partnerships, and upholding the law. In accordance with the annual reporting requirements set forth in California Government Code 7072, the Department has prepared this Annual Military Equipment Use Report.

MILITARY EQUIPMENT USE REPORT 2025

5 Introduction

The Pleasanton Police Department maintains and utilizes a variety of specialized equipment to safely and effectively fulfill its mission:

“As members of our diverse community, we selflessly serve as guardians with empathy, fairness, and respect to protect life, prevent crime, and enhance the quality of life.”

Under California Assembly Bill 481, certain items are categorized as “military equipment.” This designation does not necessarily mean the equipment is used exclusively by the military.

Rather, the term encompasses specific tools identified in the legislation, including robotic vehicles, armored rescue vehicles, chemical agents such as tear gas, less-lethal weapons (including beanbag shotguns and 40mm projectiles), and noise/flash diversionary devices.

These tools have proven effective in reducing risks to both community members and law enforcement personnel. Their inclusion in the department’s inventory reflects widely recognized best practices adopted by law enforcement agencies throughout California and across the nation.

While the department maintains an inventory of equipment defined under Assembly Bill 481, possession of such equipment does not imply its use in every situation. Critical incidents are inherently unpredictable and dynamic. Access to a range of specialized tools enables incident commanders, officers, and specialized units to respond appropriately and resolve incidents as safely and efficiently as possible.

The use of equipment classified as “military equipment” is restricted to specific circumstances and, in some cases, to specially trained units. Decisions regarding deployment are based on the totality of the circumstances, with careful consideration of public safety, officer safety, civil rights, applicable state law, and the information available at the time of the incident.

Department personnel are entrusted with recognizing when specialized equipment is necessary to protect the public, safeguard officers, and bring critical incidents to a safe resolution.

This Annual Military Equipment Use Report provides a summary of equipment usage, governing guidelines, inventory, fiscal impact, complaints, and reported concerns for the period of January 1, 2025, through December 31, 2025.

MILITARY EQUIPMENT USE REPORT 2025

6 Definitions

Under California Assembly Bill 481, the following definitions apply only to the Pleasanton Police Department’s current military equipment inventory and potential military equipment acquisitions for operational needs. For a more detailed list of “military equipment” definitions, refer to California Government Code sections 7070(c)(1) through (16).

MILITARY EQUIPMENT DEFINITIONS:

The following equipment is defined in AB 481 and an overview of it and how it is used by the Pleasanton Police Department:

“Unmanned, remotely piloted, powered aerial or ground vehicles”

The Pleasanton Police Department owns two remotely operated robots equipped with mounted cameras. These robots are deployed during authorized high-risk searches to assist in locating and identifying suspects without placing officers in potentially dangerous or confrontational situations. Their use enhances safety by reducing the risk of injury to officers, suspects, and members of the public. These robots are deployed only when circumstances meet established high-risk criteria.

For incidents involving suspicious or potentially explosive devices, the Department relies on the Alameda County Explosive Ordnance Disposal Team (EOD), commonly referred to as the “bomb squad.” The EOD Team utilizes specialized remotely operated robots designed specifically for explosive detection, investigation, and safe disposal.

In addition, the Department increasingly requests aerial drone support from partnering agencies such as the Alameda County Sheriff's Office and the Livermore Police Department.

These drones are used during search and rescue operations, warrant service operations, and searches for outstanding criminal suspects. The drones deployed are strictly for surveillance purposes and are not weaponized.

When a suspect is believed to be inside a structure, aerial drones can conduct preliminary interior assessments before officers enter. Compared to ground-based robots, drones are often better able to navigate confined or cluttered environments. This capability significantly enhances officer and public safety by reducing the likelihood of direct confrontation.

“Mine-resistant ambush-protected (MRAP) vehicles or armored personnel carriers. However, police versions of standard consumer vehicles are specifically excluded.”

A Mine-Resistant Ambush Protected (MRAP) vehicle is a military-designed vehicle. The Pleasanton Police Department does not own or operate an MRAP.

The Department does operate an Armored Rescue Vehicle (ARV), which is specifically manufactured and modified for use by first responders. The ARV provides ballistic protection

MILITARY EQUIPMENT USE REPORT 2025

7 during critical incidents where an armed encounter is reasonably anticipated. Its primary purpose is to enhance safety by allowing officers to rescue and evacuate civilians from areas where a threat from an armed suspect exists. The ARV has never been deployed for crowd control purposes, including protests or First Amendment assemblies. Such use is not consistent with its intended purpose.

Because the ARV is built on a commercially available vehicle platform that has been modified for public safety use, there has been discussion regarding whether it meets the statutory definition under this section. The vehicle has been further modified to allow the mounting of a breaching ram on the front, enabling officers to access structures during high-risk operations when necessary.

"High mobility multipurpose wheeled vehicles (HMMWV), commonly referred to as Humvees, two and one-half-ton trucks, five-ton trucks, or wheeled vehicles that have a breaching or entry apparatus attached. However, unarmored all-terrain vehicles (ATVs) and motorized dirt bikes are specifically excluded."

The Pleasanton Police Department does not own or operate Humvees or similar military-style vehicles, nor does it utilize large trucks as described in this section.

The Department’s Armored Rescue Vehicle (ARV) is capable of being equipped with a mounted breaching ram. This tool has proven effective in safely opening fortified entry doors while minimizing officer exposure. Approaching and breaching a doorway is often one of the most dangerous aspects of a high-risk entry operation. The use of a mounted breaching ram allows officers to create access to a structure while remaining protected, thereby reducing the likelihood of confrontation during entry. Additionally, this breaching method is one of the few effective options for penetrating reinforced doors commonly found in commercial or government buildings that cannot be opened with standard handheld ramming devices.

"Tracked armored vehicles that provide ballistic protection to their occupants and utilize a tracked system instead of wheels for forward motion."

The Pleasanton Police Department does not own, operate, or utilize tracked vehicles of any kind.

"Command and control vehicles that are either built or modified to facilitate the operational control and direction of public safety units."

On numerous occasions, the Pleasanton Police Department has utilized the Livermore Police Department command vehicle to support critical incidents and large-scale operations.

In December 2024, following approval from the City Council, the Pleasanton Police Department procured its own Mobile Command Vehicle. This vehicle serves as a forward command post during critical incidents, natural disasters, and search and rescue operations. It also functions as

MILITARY EQUIPMENT USE REPORT 2025

8 an emergency backup to the Department’s dispatch center, ensuring continuity of operations when needed. Many public safety agencies of comparable size maintain a mobile command vehicle to support these operational needs. The primary funding source for this equipment was grant funding.

"Battering rams, slugs, and breaching apparatuses that are explosive in nature. However, items designed to remove a lock, such as bolt cutters, or a handheld ram designed to be operated by one person, are specifically excluded from this subdivision."

The Pleasanton Police Department does not utilize explosive breaching techniques. Historically, the Department has employed shotgun breaching methods; however, the preferred breaching mechanism is the Kinetic Breaching Tool. This tool uses a single round of blank ammunition to drive a fixed bolt forward, transferring all energy directly through the bolt. No explosive energy or debris is projected into the door, enhancing safety for officers and occupants.

Many commercial, government, and school building doors are constructed in a manner that prevents entry using only manual breaching tools, such as single-person rams or pry bars. The Kinetic Breaching Tool allows officers to gain rapid access to these structures while maintaining the highest level of safety during high-risk operations.

“Firearms of .50 caliber or greater. However, standard issue shotguns are specifically excluded from this subdivision.”

The Pleasanton Police Department does not own, carry, or utilize any firearms chambered in .50 caliber or greater.

“Ammunition of .50 caliber or greater. However, standard issue shotgun ammunition is specifically excluded from this subdivision.”

The Pleasanton Police Department does not use ammunition of .50 caliber or greater, except for less-lethal ammunition described in a subsequent section.

“Specialized firearms and ammunition of less than .50 caliber, including assault weapons as defined in Sections 30510 and 30515 of the Penal Code, with the exception of standard issue service weapons and ammunition of less than .50 caliber that are issued to officers, agents, or employees of a law enforcement agency or a state agency.”

The Pleasanton Police Department maintains 89 rifles classified as assault weapons under the California Penal Code. These rifles are assigned only to sworn officers and supervisors who have completed the certified training required by the California Commission on Peace Officer Standards and Training (P.O.S.T.).

Rifles provide the capability to address lethal threats at a distance with precision and can penetrate most body armor. They utilize standard law enforcement ammunition, and their use

9 and deployment are governed by Policy 312 of the Pleasanton Police Department Policy Manual.

In addition, the Department maintains a limited supply of armor-piercing ammunition for .308 bolt-action rifles. This ammunition is restricted to the tactical team and is reserved for situations in which it is necessary to penetrate heavy armor, such as that used in armored vehicles.

“Specialized firearms and ammunition of less than .50 caliber, including assault weapons as defined in Sections 30510 and 30515 of the Penal Code, with the exception of standard issue service weapons and ammunition of less than .50 caliber that are issued to officers, agents, or employees of a law enforcement agency or a state agency.”

The Pleasanton Police Department does not utilize any firearms designed to launch explosive projectiles.

“Flashbang” grenades and explosive breaching tools, “tear gas,” and “pepper balls,” excluding standard, service-issued handheld pepper spray.”

The Pleasanton Police Department utilizes noise-flash diversionary devices, commonly known as “flashbangs,” as well as various chemical agents, including tear gas and paintball-like projectiles such as pepper balls.

Noise-flash diversionary devices are deployed to create a distraction during high-risk activities, such as entering a structure during warrant service. The Department follows best practices for their use, which include deploying these devices only on the exterior of structures and ensuring that officers have a clear line of sight to the deployment area.

The primary purpose of chemical agents, such as non-lethal CS gas, is to encourage a barricaded suspect to exit a structure safely. These agents cause temporary irritation to the eyes and throat, reducing the need for officers to enter potentially dangerous areas and thereby minimizing the risk of injury to both officers and suspects.

While chemical agents can be used for dispersing large, unlawful assemblies, the Pleasanton Police Department has never deployed them for this purpose. Their use is strictly limited to situations where the goal is the safe resolution of high-risk incidents.

“Taser Shockwave, microwave weapons, water cannons, and the Long Range Acoustic Device (LRAD).”

The Pleasanton Police Department does not utilize any of the devices described in this section. • The Taser Shockwave, manufactured by Axon Technologies, is designed to deny access to specific areas and has no law enforcement application.

MILITARY EQUIPMENT USE REPORT 2025

10 • Microwave weapons are not used by the Department or any law enforcement agency in the region.
• The Department, as well as regional agencies, do not operate water cannons. • Long Range Acoustic Devices (LRADs), which can deliver highly audible public address messages, are used by some law enforcement agencies; however, they are not employed by the Pleasanton Police Department.

“The following projectile launch platforms and their associated munitions: 40mm projectile launchers, “bean bag,” rubber bullet, and specialty impact munition (SIM) weapons.”

The Pleasanton Police Department possesses 40mm launch platforms, which have been previously approved by the City Council. In 2023, the Department purchased 24 launchers to equip the marked patrol fleet. In 2024, the Department acquired two multi-launchers, which were placed in patrol supervisor vehicles. These launchers may be deployed as less-lethal impact devices, providing an alternative to higher levels of force, or to deliver chemical agents when necessary.

The Department also utilizes 12-gauge shotguns firing bean bag rounds and the FN-303 launcher as less-lethal options. These tools provide officers with alternatives to more lethal force in situations where such alternatives are reasonable and appropriate. The FN-303 functions similarly to a paintball gun and can be loaded with a variety of ammunition types, including impact rounds, PAVA (pepper spray) rounds, and marking rounds. Marking rounds leave a paint stain on clothing to facilitate suspect identification later.

Currently, the standard less-lethal ammunition carried by patrol officers consists of bean bag rounds and FN-303 impact rounds.
