City Council Agenda Item
Staff Report
CITY OF SAN BRUNO
DATE:April 12, 2022
TO:Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
FROM:Jovan Grogan, City Manager
PREPARED BY:Qianyu Sun, Director
SUBJECT: Adopt Resolution Authorizing the City Manager to Execute an Agreement with Badawi & Associates for Professional Auditing Services for Fiscal Years Ending June 30, 2022 through 2024 for an All Inclusive Fee of $139,005
BACKGROUND: The City of San Bruno follows a standard practice to retain independent auditing services to examine and evaluate the adequacy and effectiveness of internal control and quality of financial performance, when preparing the annual comprehensive financial reports (ACFR) to the City Council. The scope of the annual audits includes:
Comprehensive financial statements
Federal grants
Transportation Development Act Program
Measure A and W Funds
GANN limit
The independent auditors’ report is instrumental in providing City Council and the public insight into the City’s financial management. It is also critical in the City’s effort to apply for the Certificate of Achievement for Excellence in Financial Reporting with the Government Financial Officers Association (GFOA).
Maze & Associates (Maze) has been our auditor since FY 2015-16 and developed strong collaborative relationships with the City staff. We cannot be more pleased with Maze’s services and assistance. The current contract with Maze ends with FY 2020-21.
It is a best practice for the City to solicit competitive auditing service proposals periodically to ensure auditors’ independence and competitiveness.
DISCUSSION: The Finance Department issued a request for proposals (RFP) for professional auditing services on February 11, 2022. These audits are to be performed in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards, the standards set forth for financial audits in the U.S. Government Accountability Office’s (GAO) Government Auditing Standards (GAS), the provisions of the Federal Single Audit Act and the U.S. 29 of 206
Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
April 12, 2022
Office of Management and Budget (OMB) Circular A-133, and Governmental Accounting Standards Board (GASB) Pronouncements. The proposals were evaluated on the following criteria:
A. Auditing firm’s qualification and experience in conducting audits of cities of similar nature, size, and complexity.
B. Technical experience and professional qualifications of the audit team C. Audit approach and work plan
D. Cost
Three qualified accounting firms responded to the RFP. The technical aspects of all three proposals are competitive. In the end, cost is the determining factor in staff’s recommendation for selecting Badawi and Associates. The following table illustrates the all inclusive prices of the three proposals.
Firm All Inclusive Prices
Badawi & Associates $139,005
Maze & Associates $168,292
Eide Bailly LLP $348,330
Badawi & Associates (Badawi) is founded by Mr. Ahmed Badawi, a certified public accountant with over 20 years of experience working with state and local government.
The firm is located in Berkeley and serves a variety of cities and towns throughout California, including Berkeley, Petaluma, Antioch, Lafayette, Millbrae, etc. Staff reached out the some of the cities for references and received positive reviews and feedbacks.
FISCAL IMPACT: The current auditing service contract with Maze carries an annual price of $52,708, total of $158,124 for three years. The selection of Badawi and Associates will lower the City’s budget on auditing services for the next three years and create a saving of $19,119 for three years.
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT: There is no environmental impact.
RECOMMENDATION: Adopt resolution authorizing the city manager to execute an agreement with Badawi & Associates for professional auditing services for fiscal years ending June 30, 2022 through 2024 for an all-inclusive fee of $139,005.

City Council Agenda Item
Staff Report
CITY OF SAN BRUNO
DATE:April 12, 2022
TO:Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
FROM:Jovan Grogan, City Manager
PREPARED BY:Melissa Thurman, City Clerk
SUBJECT: Adopt Resolution Declaring the Continued State of Local Emergency and Need for the City Council and Other Legislative Bodies Subject to the Ralph M. Brown Act to Continue to Teleconference in Order to Ensure the Health and Safety of the Public Pursuant to AB 361
BACKGROUND: On March 4, 2020, Governor Gavin Newsom declared a State of Emergency to make additional resources available, formalize emergency actions already underway across multiple state agencies and departments, and help the State prepare for a broader spread of COVID-19.
On March 17, 2020, in response to the COVID-19 pandemic, Governor Newsom issued Executive Order N-29-20, which suspended certain provisions of the Ralph M. Brown Act to allow local legislative bodies to conduct meetings telephonically or by other means. Additionally, the State implemented a shelter-in-place order, requiring all non- essential personnel to work from home.
In response to the Executive Order, City staff created Zoom accounts for various departments and underwent training to ensure that City Council meetings could continue safely for the members, staff, and the public. The City Council has been conducting virtual meetings since April 2020 and the City’s Commissions, Boards and Committees began meeting virtually in June 2020. The usage for Zoom for public meetings has allowed the City to ensure the public’s continued access to government meetings while also ensuring the public’s safety.
On June 11, 2021, Governor Newsom issued Executive Order N-08-21, which rescinded his prior Executive Order N-29-20 and set a date of October 1, 2021 for agencies to transition back to public meetings held in full compliance with the Ralph M. Brown Act. Since Executive Order N-08-21 was enacted, the Delta and Omicron Variants of the COVID-19 virus have emerged, which has resulted in ten times the number of confirmed COVID-19 cases throughout the county since June 2021. Taking these factors into account, San Bruno has continued its public meetings in the virtual setting and wishes to maintain this format to preserve the health and safety of its staff, elected officials and constituents. 33 of 206
Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
April 12, 2022
DISCUSSION: AB 361 was signed into law by the Governor on September 16, 2021, went into effect immediately as urgency legislation (codified under Government Code § 54953), and allows local legislative bodies to continue to meet remotely beyond the current executive order’s expiration of September 30, 2021, in any of the following circumstances:
The legislative body holds a meeting during a proclaimed state of emergency, and state or local officials have imposed or recommended measures to promote social distancing. The legislative body holds a meeting during a proclaimed state of emergency for the purpose of determining, by majority vote, whether as a result of the emergency, meeting in person would present imminent risks to the health or safety of attendees. The legislative body holds a meeting during a proclaimed state of emergency and has determined, by majority vote, pursuant to subparagraph (B), that, as a result of the emergency, meeting in person would present imminent risks to the health or safety of attendees. (Government Code § 54953(e)(1)(A)-(C).)
Staff has determined the following findings can be made to meet the above provisions of AB 361:
The state of California remains under the COVID-19 state of emergency proclaimed by the Governor pursuant to the California Emergency Services Act. The emergency continues to directly impact the ability of members to meet safely in person.
On February 17, 2022, Governor Gavin Newsom lifted several states of emergencies that were in place in California but kept the state of emergency for COVID-19 intact.
On October 26, 2021, during a regular meeting, the City Council adopted a resolution making necessary findings so that the City may continue to teleconference public meetings without adhering to all of the Brown Act’s teleconferencing requirements, in order to ensure the health and safety of the public. The public has the ability to attend public meetings by teleconference accessibility via call-in option or an internet-based service option (via the Zoom Webinars platform). Meeting details including the Zoom link and accessible phone numbers are listed on the published agenda for each meeting. The City monitors attendance via teleconference as well as email correspondence received throughout each public meeting and provides access for public comment opportunities in real time both verbally and in writing.
The City Council may continue to teleconference public meetings under AB 361 if the City Council makes findings every 30 days during the proclaimed state of emergency. AB 361 will sunset on January 1, 2024, or whenever the City Council returns to in-person meetings, whichever occurs first.
FISCAL IMPACT: There is no fiscal impact.

Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
April 12, 2022
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT: The action is not a project subject to CEQA. City Council’s action is not considered a “Project” per CEQA Guidelines and therefore no further environmental analysis is required.
RECOMMENDATION: Adopt Resolution Declaring the Continued State of Local Emergency and Need for the City Council and Other Legislative Bodies Subject to the Ralph M. Brown Act to Continue to Teleconference in Order to Ensure the Health and Safety of the Public Pursuant to AB 361
ALTERNATIVES: The City Council may choose to not adopt the resolution or adjust staff’s findings; however, if a resolution is not adopted, the City may not be subject to the Brown Act exemptions that would be allowed under AB 361.

AB 361, as amended, Robert Rivas. Open meetings: state and local agencies: teleconferences.
Existing
(1) Existing law, the Ralph M.

The act contains specified provisions regarding the timelines for posting an agenda and pro viding for the ability of the public to directly address the legislative body on any item of interest to the public. The act generally requires all regular and special
94 56 of 206
meetings of the le gislative body be held within the boundaries of the territory over which the local agency exercises jurisdiction, subject to certain e xceptions. The act allo ws for meetings to occur via teleconferencing subject to certain requirements, particularly that the legislative body notice each teleconference location of each member that will be participating in the public meeting, that each teleconference location be accessible to the public, that members of the public be allowed to address the legislative body at each teleconference location, that the legislative body post an agenda at each teleconference location, and that at least a quorum of the le gislative body participate from locations within the boundaries of the local agency’s jurisdiction. The act provides an exemption to the jurisdictional requirement for health authorities, as defined. The act authorizes the district attorne y or any interested person, subject to certain provisions, to commence an action by mandamus or injunction for the purpose of obtaining a judicial determination that specified actions taken by a legislative body are null and void.
Existing law, the California Emergency Services Act, authorizes the Governor, or the Director of Emer gency Services when the go vernor is inaccessible, to proclaim a state of emer gency under specified circumstances.
Executive Order No. N-29-20 suspends the Ralph M. Bro wn Act’s requirements for teleconferencing during the CO VID-19 pandemic provided that notice and accessibility requirements are met, the public members are allowed to observe and address the legislative body at the meeting, and that a legislative body of a local agency has a procedure for recei ving and swiftly resolving requests for reasonable accommodation for individuals with disabilities, as specified.
This bill, until January 1, 2024, w ould authorize a local agenc y to use teleconferencing without complying with the teleconferencing requirements imposed by the Ralph M. Bro wn Act when a legislative body of a local agenc y holds a meeting during a declared state of emergency, as that term is defined, when state or local health officials have imposed or recommended measures to promote social distancing, during a proclaimed state of emer gency held for the purpose of determining, by majority vote, whether meeting in person would present imminent risks to the health or safety of attendees, and during a proclaimed state of emergency when the legislative body has determined that meeting in person w ould present imminent risks to the health or safety of attendees, as provided.

teleconferencing during the COVID-19 pandemic, provided that notice and accessibility requirements are met, the public members are allowed to observe and address the state body at the meeting , and that a state body has a procedure for receiving and swiftly resolving requests for reasonable accommodation for individuals with disabilities, as specified.

The bill would r equire that eac h state body that holds a meeting through teleconferencing provide notice of the meeting , and post the agenda, as provided. The bill would urge state bodies utilizing these teleconferencing procedures in the bill to use sound discr etion and to mak e r easonable ef forts to adher e as closely as r easonably possible to existing law, as provided.
(3) Existing law establishes the various campuses of the California State Univer sity under the administr ation of the Trustees of the California State University, and authorizes the establishment of student body organizations in connection with the oper ations of California State University campuses.
The Gloria Romero Open Meetings Act of 2000 generally requires a legislative body, as defined, of a student body organization to conduct its business in a meeting that is open and public. The act authorizes the legislative body to use teleconfer encing, as defined, for the benefit of the public and the legislative body in connection with any meeting or proceeding authorized by law.

CITY OF SAN BRUNO
DATE:April 12, 2022
TO:Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
FROM:Jovan D. Grogan, City Manager
PREPARED BY:Matthew Lee, Director
SUBJECT: Adopt Resolution Related to the Emergency Replacement of the San Bruno Senior Center Chiller Unit: • Ratifying the Emergency Replacement Declaration of the Chiller Unit at the San Bruno Senior Center Authorized by the City Manager on March 30, 2022; • Waiving Competitive Bidding Requirements Pursuant to State Law and the San Bruno Municipal Code Due to the Existence of an Emergency; • Authorizing the City Manager to Execute Necessary Contracts to Mitigate the Emergency and to Appropriate Such Funds from the Building and Facility Fund Balance BACKGROUND: On March 28, 2022, the Public Works Department was contacted regarding an error message from the chiller unit used to cool the San Bruno Senior Center. Staff contacted a repair vendor to diagnose the alert by selecting a vendor from the Department’s Pre-Qualified Vendor List. It was discovered that one of 4 compressors had failed within the chiller unit and a third compressor was faulting. When attempting to repair the compressors, the other compressors also failed. The cost to replace one compressor was not prudent as the unit exceeded its useful life cycle and the cost outweighed the benefit. The chiller unit is currently 35 years old and has an average life cycle of approximately 20 years.
Due to the Senior Centers importance within the community, with programs like the active lunch program and its potential use as a cooling center, staff determined the need for replacement was urgent for such a critical facility to the community. Failure to act quickly would result in the lack of cooling for the entire building during peak summer months. Given the chiller unit procurement timelines and potential global supply chain issues, it would be prudent to engage in ordering the unit and initiating the repairs immediately to meet the peak demands of the chiller unit this summer. The Public Works Department requested authorization to move forward with immediate replacement of the chiller unit.
Under municipal code section 2.44.120.A, the City Manager authorized the replacement. A memo was issued to the City Council on March 30, 2022 (Attachment 2).
DISCUSSION: Under normal non-emergency conditions, a project of this size (between $60,000 and $200,000) would require an informal bidding process per the California Public Contract Code Section 22032 - California Uniform Public Construction Cost Accounting Act. Due to the failure at a facility that runs critical programs for seniors, the potential use of the facility as a cooling center, the timelines needed to ensure the chiller unit is replaced in time for the summer months, the chiller unit procurement timelines, and potential global supply chain issues; staff determined that it would be prudent to waive informal bidding process for this emergency repair. 88 of 206

0 Although the informal bidding process was waived, staff selected a contractor from the City’s 2022 Prequalified Contractors List. This is allowed under emergency authority municipal code section 2.44.120.A and the California Public Contract Code Section 20168 which authorizes the City Manager to take such action in an emergency. The California State law and the San Bruno Municipal code requires that when the City Managers waives the bidding requirements due to an emergency council will need a 4/5th approval to ratify the action, which declares the emergency repair, waive the informal bidding process, and authorize the execution of the contract.
FISCAL IMPACT: The cost for this emergency replacement was $117,161 and staff utilized the Building and Facility Fund Balance to establish a Purchase Order for the work ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT: The action is not a project subject to CEQA. City Council’s action is not considered a “Project” per CEQA Guidelines and therefore no further environmental analysis is required.
RECOMMENDATION: Adopt Resolution Related to the Emergency Replacement of the San Bruno Senior Center Chiller Unit:
• Ratifying the Emergency Replacement Declaration of the Chiller Unit at the San Bruno Senior Center Authorized by the City Manager on March 30, 2022; • Waiving Competitive Bidding Requirements Pursuant to State Law and the San Bruno Municipal Code Due to the Existence of an Emergency;
• Authorizing the City Manager to Execute Necessary Contracts to Mitigate the Emergency and to Appropriate Such Funds from the Building and Facility Fund Balance ALTERNATIVES:
1.Reject staff’s recommendation to ratify the emergency declaration, waive informal bidding, and authorization of contract.
2.Direct changes at the Dias to the resolution to ratify only a portion of the staff recommendation.

CITY OF SAN BRUNO
DATE:April 12, 2022
TO:Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
FROM:Jovan D. Grogan, City Manager
PREPARED BY:Jovan D. Grogan, City Manager
SUBJECT: Adopt Resolution Approving Agreement between the City of San Bruno and the Police Bargaining Unit and Authorizing Execution by the City Manager
BACKGROUND: The existing Memorandum of Understanding between the City of San Bruno and the Police Bargaining Unit expired on December 31, 2021. Representatives from the City and the bargaining unit met and conferred in good faith and have reached a tentative agreement extending their existing Memorandum of Understanding an additional four years through December 31, 2025. The tentative agreement was signed by the bargaining unit on March 22, 2022.
DISCUSSION: The attached Tentative Agreement for the Police Bargaining Unit will extend their current Memorandum of Understanding through December 31, 2025 based on factors identified during negotiations over the last seven months.
The City retained an independent consultant to conduct a total compensation survey of comparison agencies that was completed and reviewed with the union in October 2021.
Total compensation for the group demonstrated that they were below the labor market median by 2.55%.
In addition to the total compensation survey of comparison agencies, the agreement’s economic package was based on a variety of factors including inflation as measured by the Consumers Price Index, All Urban Consumers (CPI-U), for the San Francisco – Oakland – San Jose region. CPI-U in October 2021 was 3.8% for the region. Also taken into consideration was the 0% cost of living adjustment (COLA) received for the group in 2021.
CPI-U in 2020 was 2%, the bargaining group received a 3% COLA. In 2019, CPI-U was
2.5% and the group received a 3% COLA. In 2018, the group received a 3% COLA and 2% equity adjustment, CPI-U was 4.5%.
The tentative agreements include cost of living adjustments each year as follows:
effective the first full pay period of January 2022, a 4% salary increase effective the first full pay period of January 2023, a 3% salary increase effective the first full pay period of January 2024, a 3% salary increase effective the first full pay period of January 2025, a 3% salary increase 94 of 206
Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
April 12, 2022
In addition to cost-of-living adjustments (COLAs) over the course of the four-year period, the contract identifies specific classification assessments (Police Record Clerks and Public Safety Dispatchers and Community Service Officer assigned to digital and physical evidence) and an addition of a Police Corporal classification, special assignments pay and night shift differential aligned with other local jurisdictions and an extension of compensatory leave bank from 80 to 120 hours. Additional modifications of the contract include clean-up language.
Per official request by the union, the classifications of Code Enforcement Officer I, Code Enforcement Officer II and Senior Code Enforcement Officer are to be transitioned from the Miscellaneous Bargaining Unit, represented by Teamsters, Local #856 to the Police Bargaining Unit, also represented by Teamsters, Local #856.
Bargaining unit members will share in the cost for medical premium increases. The City will continue to pay 75% of the health care premium increase beginning January 1, 2022 and December 31, 2025.
The parties agreed to add the Retiree Plus Health Coverage to commence for all current employees who participate in the employee health plan effective January 1, 2021.
Beginning January 1, 2022 through December 31, 2025 the City shall pay 75% and employee shall pay 25% of Retiree Plus Health Coverage premium.
FISCAL IMPACT: The FY 2021/2022 budget does not include funds for enhancements to employee salary and additional benefit costs over the fiscal year. The 4% wage adjustment, special assignment pays, classification changes and additional benefit costs for this bargaining unit is anticipated to cost $215,170 for the remainder of FY 2021/2022.
Excess general fund revenues will cover costs in the current FY 2021/22. Future costs will be included in subsequent annual budgets.
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT: The action is not a project subject to CEQA. City Council’s action is not considered a “Project” per CEQA Guidelines and therefore no further environmental analysis is required.
RECOMMENDATION: Adopt Resolution Approving Agreement between the City of San Bruno and the Police Bargaining Unit and Authorizing Execution by the City Manager.
ALTERNATIVES: Do not approve the agreement and direct the negotiating team to seek changes or to begin mediation discussions.

CITY OF SAN BRUNO
DATE:April 12, 2022
TO:Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
FROM:Jovan Grogan, City Manager
PREPARED BY:Matthew Lee, Director
SUBJECT: Waive First Reading and Introduce an Ordinance Repealing Chapter
10.21 of the San Bruno Municipal Code and Adopting a new Chapter
10.21 Regulating the Use of Disposable Food Service Ware by Food Facilities
BACKGROUND: On August 12, 2008, the City Council adopted a Sustainable Food Packaging Ordinance calling on restaurants and other food service vendors in San Bruno to eliminate disposable food service composed of polystyrene (Styrofoam). Effective April 1, 2010, food vendors were prohibited from dispensing prepared food to customers in disposable food service ware made from polystyrene. Since the adoption of the Sustainable Food Packaging Ordinance, there has been increasing concern in the community over the impact of disposable food service ware, especially items made from plastic. Disposable food service ware, including containers, cups, lids, utensils and straws, is a major contributor to street litter, ocean pollution, marine and other wildlife endangerment, and climate change. The toxic, carcinogenic chemicals in polystyrene include benzene and styrene, and when heated, leaches into food and drinks.
The City was contacted by the San Mateo County Office of Sustainability (County) in August 2019 and received a summary report and request to consider joining a county wide effort to adopt a Disposable Food Service Ware Ordinance (Ordinance) for food facilities. For over a year, County staff conducted extensive research and worked closely with the County’s Environmental Health Services (EHS) to develop the proposed Ordinance, repealing its existing Polystyrene Ban Ordinance. The County engaged cities and stakeholders in the process to try and encourage all of the cities in the county to adopt its Ordinance. The County adopted the Ordinance on February 25, 2020, with thirteen cities following the adoption including the City adopting on September 14, 2021. The Ordinance aimed to regulate and reduce the amount of disposable food service ware, especially those made of plastic which include one-time use items such as straws, stirrers, blows, plates, cups, utensils, clamshells, etc.
In 2018, California adopted Assembly Bill (AB) 1884 requiring that full-service restaurants only provide single-use plastic straws upon consumer request versus distributing them automatically without a specific request from the consumer. The State expanded on this law by passing AB 1276 on October 5, 2021. Under AB 1276, food facilities must go beyond just plastic straws and require consumers to request additional foodware accessories such as utensils, stirrers, splash sticks, and condiment packets. The State also strengthened enforcement by directing local governments to authorize an enforcement agency to enforce these statutes by June 1, 2022.
The law, however, does not provide a specific implementation date. Furthermore, AB 1276 allows local governments to adopt more restrictive requirements at their discretion. Also, on 103 of 206
Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
April 12, 2022

3 October 5, 2021, Governor Newsom signed into law AB 1200, which prohibits the sale or distribution of single-use foodware comprised of paper or other plant-based natural fiber that contains intentionally added perfluoroalkyl and polyfluoroalkyl substances (PFAS), a class of hazardous chemicals. This law goes into effect on January 1, 2023. The new legislation does not direct a specific entity to be the enforcement agency.
The County’s Board of Supervisors adopted the amendment to the Disposable Food Service Ware Ordinance on February 8, 2022.
DISCUSSION: The previously adopted City Ordinance in September 2021 (2021 Ordinance) includes key provisions that are well aligned with many of the requirements on foodware in AB 1276 and AB 1200 including:
1. Requirement that food facilities only distribute foodware accessories upon request by the consumer;
2. Prohibition of food facilities from bundling/packaging single-use foodware accessories for distribution;
3. Requirement that third-party food delivery platforms (e.g., Uber Eats, DoorDash, etc.) provide options for consumers to affirmatively ask for single-use foodware accessories; and
4. PFAS restrictions on single-use fiber-based foodware. (While AB 1200 requires all single-use fiber-based foodware to be PFAS-free, the City’s 2021 Ordinance requires the following select items to be PFAS-free: plates, bowls, cups, food trays, clamshells, boxes, deli containers, and other containers.)
Some discrepancies, however, do exist. Below is a summary of the new state requirements and the recommendations for aligning the City’s 2021 Ordinance with the new state requirements.
Overview of Changes to City’s 2021 Ordinance to Align with AB 1276 To align the City’s 2021 Ordinance with the new state requirements of AB 1276, the following changes are recommended:
1. Current 2021 Ordinance requirement: All food facilities may offer single-use foodware accessories to consumers.
New AB 1276 requirement: Food facilities can offer single-use foodware accessories only at drive-throughs and public airports.
Recommended change to 2021 Ordinance: Amend the 2021 Ordinance so that only food facility drive-throughs and food facilities at public airports can offer accessories to consumers.
2. Current 2021 Ordinance requirement: Food facilities may distribute foodware accessories using dispensers and have them available at self-serve areas, including in open bins/containers for consumers to grab-and-go.
New AB 1276 requirement: Open bins/containers are not allowed for distribution of accessories.
Consumers must request them from the employee and/or food facilities may have them available at refillable dispensers that dispense accessories one item at a time.
Recommended change to 2021 Ordinance: Amend the 2021 Ordinance so that food facilities cannot have available accessories in open bins/containers at self-serve areas for consumers to 104 of 206
Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
April 12, 2022
2 0
3 grab-and-go, and explicitly state that dispensers can only dispense accessories one item at a time.
3. Current 2021 Ordinance requirement: Food facilities are not prohibited from using self-serve, refillable bulk condiment dispensers (there is no reference to bulk condiment dispensers in the 2021 Ordinance).
New AB 1276 requirement: Food facilities are explicitly allowed to use self-serve, refillable bulk condiment dispensers to distribute condiments.
Recommended change to 2021 Ordinance: Amend the 2021 Ordinance to explicitly allow for use of refillable bulk condiment dispensers.
Overview of Changes to City’s 2021 Ordinance to Align with AB 1200 The PFAS requirements for all single-use fiber-based foodware under AB 1200 go into effect on January 1, 2023. To align the City’s 2021 Ordinance with the new state requirements of AB 1200, the following changes are recommended:
1. The PFAS requirements in AB 1200 go into effect on January 1, 2023 and supersede those of the City’s 2021 Ordinance. Therefore, the recommendation is to sunset the City’s PFAS requirements currently in the 2021 Ordinance on December 31, 2022. The County will look to the State to assume responsibility for implementing and enforcing the new requirements starting on January 1, 2023.
The City entered into a Memorandum of Understanding with the County, who will take the lead in education and outreach, as well as enforcement of the ordinance.
This will promote consistency within jurisdictions throughout the County. The City will save staff time and resources by having the County provide these services.
The ordinance will not become operative and will not be enforced until October 1, 2022 to provide food facilities time to use up their existing non-conforming inventory and to give County staff time to develop an education and enforcement program.
FISCAL IMPACT: There is no fiscal impact anticipated as a result of this Ordinance. Limited costs are anticipated for existing food service facilities in the City considering that all have some type of sustainable food service ware in place. The County will manage the outreach, education, and enforcement of the Ordinance at no cost to the City.
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT: The action is not a project subject to CEQA. City Council’s action is not considered a “Project” per CEQA Guidelines and therefore no further environmental analysis is required.
RECOMMENDATION: Receive report regarding the San Mateo County Office of Sustainability’s proposed Food Service Ware Ordinance and provide direction to staff to return with a City Disposable Food Service Ware Ordinance for adoption.

City Council Agenda Item
Staff Report
CITY OF SAN BRUNO
DATE:April 12, 2022
TO:Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
FROM:Jovan D. Grogan, City Manager
PREPARED BY:Matthew Lee, Public Works Director
SUBJECT: Receive Report on 15 MPH Speed Limit Signs on School Zones BACKGROUND: At the City Council meeting on October 26, 2021, citing local safety concerns near schools and neighboring cities that have either reduced speed limits near K-12 schools or committed to study doing so, the City Council requested that staff investigate the City’s ability to reduce speed limits near San Bruno schools and the San Bruno Senior Center. The discussion and direction was prompted by an agendized Councilmember Comment from Mayor Rico Medina titled “Speed limits near schools and the San Bruno Senior Center.” During the discussion, information was requested on the Police Department’s ability and the cost to enforce the reduced speed limits. In addition to assumption that reduced posted speed limits will increase safety around school sites, Councilmembers citied a newly adopted state law (AB 43) and alignment to actions (or potential actions) by neighboring cities as the rationale for examining reduced speeds near school sites in San Bruno.
In addition to the above direction to examine reducing speeds to 15 mph, in FY 2020-2021, the City Council authorized work on a Safe Routes to School Plan and the City was awarded $248,929 from a Caltrans Sustainable Transportation Planning Grant to develop a Safe Routes to School Plan. The Plan will identify infrastructure improvements and propose program activities such as education and enforcement needed to improve safety conditions for children who walk and bicycle to schools. The Plan will be framed on the six Es of Safe Routes to School programs (Evaluation, Engineering, Education, Encouragement, Enforcement, and Equity), and the content will be based on input from school and community-based groups such as parent- teacher organizations, citizen advisory committees, three open community meetings, online parent and student surveys, in-depth analysis of collision data, and comprehensive walking audits at each school. Participating schools include Belle Air Elementary, Decima Allen Elementary, Rollingwood Elementary, John Muir Elementary, Portola Elementary, Parkside Intermediate, Capuchino High, St. Robert Catholic Elementary, and Palos Verdes and El Portal Schools. Members of the community are welcome to provide feedback for non-participating schools during the public engagement process. The Plan will include school specific summaries that describe existing conditions, proposed recommendations, and a list of prioritized projects per school and district-wide. Plan adoption by City Council is anticipated for Winter 2022-2023.
The California Vehicle Code (CVC) is the section of the California Codes which contains almost all statutes relating to the operation, ownership, and registration of vehicles including bicycles in the state of California.
118 of 206
Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
April 12, 2022

6 CVC identifies a prima facie speed limit of 25 mph on local streets and streets contiguous to schools when approaching or passing school grounds (up to 500’ of the school grounds before 2008), without the need for Engineering & Traffic Survey (E&TS). On streets with posted speed limits of 30 mph or higher, the 25 mph prima facie speed limit in school zones is only in effect when children are present, which is generally when children are going to, or leaving the school during morning, lunch period or afternoon. For schools that are located on local streets, the 25 mph prima facie speed limit in school zones is in effect all the times.
California Assembly Bill 321 (approved October 10, 2007), an act to amend CVC Section 22358.4, became effective in January 2008 allowing local agencies to extend the 25 mph prima facie speed limit up to 1,000 feet from the school grounds or to establish a 15 mph speed limit in school zones (up to 500’ from the school grounds) under certain conditions.
Specifically, the reduced or extended school zone speed limit is only applicable on streets in a residential district that have a maximum of two traffic lanes and a maximum posted speed limit of 30 mph. Such reduced or extended speed limits must be established for both directions of traffic and the reduced or extended school zone speed limit would only be in effect when children are present.
In addition to the above, CVC Section 22358.4 as well as the CA MUTCD also require (1) documenting all provisions of CVC section 627 (traffic collisions, unusual traffic conditions, residential density, pedestrian/bicycle safety) that support the need to lower or extend the school zone speed limit, in an engineering study and (2) a Council resolution or ordinance establishing reduced or extended school zone speed limits. While the 85th percentile speed forms the basis of determining radar enforceable speed limits, the 85th percentile speed is not required to be the basis for the reduced 15 mph or extended 25 mph school zone.
Recently, AB 43 was approved by Governor on October 8, 2021. Among other things, AB 43 authorizes local agencies to reduce speed in Residential and Business Districts to 20 or 15 mph based on an E&TS. Most of the AB 43 provisions will not be effective until Caltrans and the California Judicial Council have developed and formalized procedures related to the new provisions. Staff estimates these provisions may not be effective until 2023 or 2024 because of the time required for Caltrans and others to update their rules and regulations.
California Assembly Bill 321 does not apply to senior centers, however under AB 43 the speed limit can be reduced to 15 or 20 mph at any residential streets or business districts based on Engineering and Traffic Survey. Without further study, it is not possible to state if AB 43 can be used to reduce the speed limit near the San Bruno Senior Center to 15 or 20 mph, as it is unclear if the area would qualify as a residential or business district under AB
43. DISCUSSION: There are a total of 15 private and public schools in the City of San Bruno. A preliminary review of school locations indicates that all of the schools are located at qualifying locations meeting CVC criteria. Reducing school zone speed limits below 25 mph is not allowed by law on roads that exceed two travel lanes, or posted speed limit of higher than 30 mph or are not located within residential districts. In order to post 15 mph reduced or 25 mph extended school zone speed limit signs, the following major steps will be essential.
119 of 206
Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
April 12, 2022
2 0
6 1. Conduct an engineering study for each location. A cursory look indicates that most locations may qualify for posting 15 mph speed limits within school zones.
2. Council action and passage of resolution for implementation
3. Installation of signs
California MUTCD Figure 7B—103(CA) shows the typical school zone signs required to be posted at each school site (Attachment 1). A minimum of 6 (six) signs are required per school site or more depending on cross streets within the school zone and/or contiguous streets to the school grounds.
If the City decides to implement the reduced speed limit around schools, there will be fiscal impacts. It will require the City to budget a capital improvement project for about $300,000 to cover the cost of performing engineering study, preparing plans and bid documents, advertising the project for construction and the cost of construction and contract administration.
In addition, the City desires to actively enforce the reduced speed limits there will need to be additional annual costs incurred by the City for traffic enforcement. The Police Department’s Traffic Section is currently staffed with one Traffic Sergeant and one Traffic Officer. The Traffic Sergeant’s duties require them to remain primarily in the office as their duties include reviewing and approving traffic collision reports, reviewing parking citation appeals, conducting vehicle impound hearings and managing the Department’s Office of Traffic Safety grants. The Traffic Officer is assigned to respond to traffic collisions, investigate major traffic collisions and conduct traffic enforcement including speed enforcement. If the Traffic Officer were to be diverted from all their other duties to ensure that they are proactively enforcing the reduced speed limits around schools; the Traffic Officer would only be able to be at each school site, once each month. In addition, while the Traffic Officer is dedicated to a school each day; their normal workload will have to be handled by other Officers. The Police Department projects that the City will need to hire additional Traffic Officers depending on the level of proactive speed enforcement that is desired at the school sites. A Traffic Officer is estimated to cost $191,900 annually (at Step 5). For each Traffic Officer, a police motorcycle will need to be purchased at an approximate cost of $73,100.
An additional Traffic Officer would allow for speed enforcement at each school site once each month and allow the current Traffic Officer to maintain their current workload. Two new Traffic Officers would allow for speed enforcement at each school site twice each month.
The new state law (AB 43) requires that certain violations be subject to a warning citation for the first 30 days of implementation. In addition, the Police Department will have to conduct further research to determine the enforceability of these reduced speed limits in comparison to existing authorized speed limits. The Department may have to have consultations with other agencies and the Traffic Court. It is suggested that we wait to implement AB 43 (reducing speed on residential and business districts to 20 or 15 mph) until June 2024 as recommended in the AB 43 text).
It is noteworthy to mention that speeding issues are complex and street design and geometry of the road, street landscaping, number of lanes, lane width, etc., play a role. 120 of 206

6 Installing signs and enforcement while may reduce speeding in some instances, it is not a complete solution. Also, City has a traffic calming program where residents can submit a petition for their street to be considered for traffic calming measures to be installed if the speeding on the residential streets meet the speeding thresholds as defined in the City’s Traffic Calming Process.
FISCAL IMPACT: There is no fiscal impact to the City’s budget from providing this report.
However, as noted above, should the City Council wish to proceed with a project to lower speed limits at 15 private and public schools to 15 mph, staff estimates one-time project costs of $300,000. Additionally, depending on the desired level of enforcement, one or two Traffic Officers may be needed at an estimated annual cost of $191,000 per Traffic Officer and a one- time capital cost of $73,100 per police motorcycle.
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT: Receiving a report is not a project subject to CEQA. City Council’s action is not considered a “Project” per CEQA Guidelines and therefore no further environmental analysis is required. Should a project be approved to reduce speed limits around schools, the project is categorically exempt under CEQA Guidelines Section 15301(c) – Existing Facilities.
RECOMMENDATION: Receive information on reducing speed limits to 15 mph near schools and discuss next steps with guidance to staff of the following options:
1. Direct staff to immediately identify funds to implement 15 MPH school zones when the regulation allows and includes funds for enforcement by the San Bruno Police Department (SBPD) in the City Manager’s Proposed Budget for next fiscal year.
2. Request that staff bring this item back to the City Council for prioritization and identification of funding sources at an upcoming City Council budget study session for next fiscal year.
3. Take information into consideration and discuss next steps after the City Council receives the Safe Routes to School (SRTS) Plan in the Winter of 2022- 2023.
4. Request that the Traffic, Safety and Parking Committee (TSPC) look into this matter along with the Safe Routes to School (SRTS) Plan and provide a recommendation to the City Council.
ALTERNATIVES: Alternatives are identified above, under the Recommendation section.

TO:Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
FROM:Jovan D. Grogan, City Manager
PREPARED BY:Jennifer Dianos, Assistant to the City Manager SUBJECT: Appointment of Two City Councilmembers to an Ad Hoc Subcommittee for Public Opinion Poll Research Related to Potential November 2022 City-sponsored Ballot Measures
BACKGROUND: As directed by the City Council, staff is working to prepare analysis and ballot language for several potential City-sponsored ballot measures for the November 2022 general election. As a part of the ballot analysis effort, the City intends to conduct a poll of likely voters in the November 2022 election to gage interest and sentiments of several ballot measures and alternatives. The City has retained Godbe Research to conduct the poll. Godbe Research has 17+ years of experience conducting public opinion surveys for public and private agencies. The firm has conducted likely voter polls for the City of San Bruno in the past, most recently in 2020 for City measures on the November 2020 general election poll.
DISCUSSION: Prior to City Council consideration of a ballot measure(s) to be placed on the November 2022 general election, the City will work with polling experts to gage the interest and sentiment of San Bruno voters. To develop the poll, Godbe Research will review demographics and other information in order to design and refine a survey instrument which addresses the research objectives of the City. The City Council can choose to appoint two City Councilmembers to an ad-hoc subcommittee, which would also include staff, to help develop the survey instrument. This would include the development of the questions posed to the recipients of the survey / poll. Godbe Research would lead the process and conduct the survey and analysis.
The estimated time frame to conduct the public opinion poll is May, in order to receive and analyze the results prior to staff presenting proposed ballot measures for City Council consideration. That would require the subcommittee to meet during the month of April and May 2022.
Alternatively, should the Council choose to not appoint a subcommittee, staff would work directly with Godbe Research to develop the survey material.
FISCAL IMPACT: There is no budgetary impact associated with the establishment of a City Council Ad Hoc Subcommittee for public opinion poll research.
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT: There is no environmental impact. 123 of 206
Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
April 12, 2022
RECOMMENDATION: Appointment of Two City Councilmembers to an Ad Hoc Subcommittee for Public Opinion Poll Research Related to Potential November 2022 City-sponsored Ballot Measures
ALTERNATIVES: Do not appoint a subcommittee and request that staff work directly with the public opinion research firm.

Staff Report
CITY OF SAN BRUNO
DATE: April 12, 2022
TO:Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
FROM:Qianyu Sun, Finance Director
SUBJECT:Hold Public Hearing and Adopt Resolution Adjusting the Master Fee Schedule to be effective on July 1, 2022
BACKGROUND:
The City contracted with Willdan Financial Services and completed a citywide user fee update in the spring of 2021. After several rounds of discussions, the City Council approved the fully burdened hourly staff rates, user fees and the User Fee Cost Recovery Policy on June 22, 2021.
The User Fee Cost Recovery Policy establishes cost recovery levels from low to full on the basis of a number of factors and states that “in order to lessen the impact of significant increases to existing fees, fees proposed to increase between 50-100% will be increased over two years. Fees proposed to increase by more than 100% will be increased over four years.”
The Council Resolution on June 22, 2021 stipulates that new user fees “shall increase on July 1st of every year based upon the percentage increase for the twelve-month period of the previous calendar year of the Consumer Prices Index for all Urban Consumers for the San Francisco Area, as published by the United States Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics.”
DISCUSSION:
Per United Stated Department of Labor, Bureau of Labor Statistics, the CPI increased by
4.2% for all urban consumers in the San Francisco metropolitan area. Staff applied the CPI increase to applicable user fees. Other user fees are adjusted in accordance with the direction of the User Fee Cost Recovery Policy.
In addition to user fees, the Master Fee Schedule contains other fees that were not covered by the Willdan study and those fees are adjusted to their own requirements. For instance, Development Impact Fees, Affordable Housing Impact Fees and Parking in-lieu Fees are to be adjusted to the California Construction Cost Index, which increased by 125 of 206
Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
April 12, 2022
almost 17% from February 2020 to February 2021. The three types of fees are paid by developers for residential and non-residential development projects.
Proposed CED Fee Changes
While implementing Willdan’s user fee studies in FY 2021-22, Community and Economic Development (CED) staff recognized certain services rendered that were not included as part of the master fee study. Staff also recognized fees that did not meet the cost recovery standards based on the time spent on projects. Staff completed fee study and justification as included in Attachment 2. Consistent with City Council policy to maximize cost recovery for development related services, Staff recommends changes or addition to planning and building fees for:
Stop Work Notice
Code Compliance Investigation
Temporary Certificate Occupancy Review
Request for New/ Change in Address
Mitigated Negative Declaration
SB330 Preliminary Review
Condo Use Permit
Expanded Categorical Exemption
Variance – Residential (Multi-Family) and All Non-Residential Temporary Certificate Occupancy Deposit
Technology Cost
Administrative Fee for Plan Check (Plan Reviews) for 4th & subsequent submittal Newspaper Rack Permit
General Plan Maintenance
Work without a Permit- Investigation Fee
CED reviewed the fee schedules and made recommendations for updated fee amounts based on the time spent on the service and comparison of similarly structured neighboring Cities. Staff believes that adjusting fees to recover the direct costs involved is a responsible step in updating the City’s Master Fee Schedule. The more direct costs recovered, the less the General Fund has to subsidize each fee service. Attachment 2 includes fee description, current fee, proposed fee, and justification for change.
Proposed Public Works Fee Changes
The Willdan User Fee Study established the Public Works Building Permit Plan review fee at 12% of the associated Building Permit fee. This established fee, as shown in Chapter 8 Section X.B, has not provided adequate funds for cost recovery. Staff is proposing to set a minimum flat fee of $171.00 which is equal to one hour of Public Works Plan Review per Chapter 8 Section IX.B. The minimum flat fee will not be sufficient for full cost recovery, which is closer to 2.5 hours for the first review. 126 of 206
Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
April 12, 2022
The City’s ordinances and resolutions authorize adjustments to the fees as approved by the City Council by resolution, and shall take effect no earlier than sixty days following such approval. With the Council approval, staff recommends the updated Master Fee Schedule and proposed fee changes become effective July 1, 2022.
FISCAL IMPACT:
An accurate and complete forecast for the change in fee revenue in upcoming fiscal years is difficult. The updated Master Fee Schedule and proposed fee changes will bring the City one step closer to cover recovery.
With the Master Fee Schedule and fee changes approved by the City Council, staff can estimate the increase in fee revenue in the FY 2022-23 Proposed Budget, which will be submitted to the City Council in May 2022. These increases will reduce the burden on other General Fund revenue sources to support other critical projects and services.
Staff will track fee revenue during the quarterly City Council updates.
ALTERNATIVES:
1. Request additional information to be provided prior to returning with user fees for City Council consideration and approval.
2. Do not proceed with the recommendations related to the City’s Master Fee Schedule.
RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt a resolution adjusting the Master Fee Schedule to be effective on July 1, 2022.

Description Current Rate Proposed Rate Justification
Stop Work Notice N/A- New Fee
0.5 FBHR increments (1
hour minimum)
Stop work notice generally operates in response to citizen complaints of alleged code violations or from referrals from other departments or inspector. At times, the stop work notices are initiated by Department staff such as for unpermitted construction underway, or situations of life-safety hazards or severe nuisance activities. The staff time may be associated with permits resulting from "Stop Work" and code compliance cases. These actions may be followed by additional legal sanctions, such as recordation, fines, or penalties. The overall objective of the code enforcement process is to motivate the property owner to discontinue the illegal use or activity and/or to obtain the required permits.
Code Compliance Investigation
N/A- New Fee
0.5 FBHR increments
Staff is recommending FBHR based on the staff time consumed by bringing the development in compliance. Cases are investigated and, if appropriate, administrative citations, warning and/or violation notices are issued.
Temporary Certificate Occupancy Review
N/A- New Fee
0.5 FBHR increments (1
hour minimum)
Staff is recommending FBHR fee based on the staff time spent to review and provide a temporary certificate of occupancy. Building Staff is authorized to issue a Temporary Certificate of Occupancy prior to completion of all work described in your permit, provided such portion (s) of the project are deemed safe to occupy.Staff will review the work plan that lists the work that needs to be completed on the project and the expected completion dates. Each additional hour of review, if any, will be assessed and required to be paid in full upon completion of the application process.
Request for New/ Change in Address
N/A- New Fee
1 hr minimum FBHR at 0.5
hour increments
Staff recommends to introduce a new fee for request for new or change in address. When a new building or unit is proposed, a request for new address application should be made to the Building Division so that the new address(es) can be established. The address must be approved by the Building Official and must correspond with existing addressing. The service would be charged based on the Staff's time to ensure 100% recovery of the City’s fully burdened cost.
Mitigated Negative Declaration 10,000.00$
Actual Cost - Deposit
Required
Staff recommends to replace with the $10,000 fee with the actual cost/ deposit. These projects require a deposit after a proposal is recieved from the environmental consultant, and an MND is upward of $50,000. If the $10,000 fee is kept, applicants would believe it is the total cost of the project.
SB330 Preliminary Review N/A- New Fee Actual Cost - Deposit Required
SB 330 allows eligible housing development projects to submit a preliminary application, a questionnaire and checklist of required materials which, when deemed submitted shall have the effect of vesting the development requirements and standards in place at the time of determination.
Condo Use Permit
3,220.00$
Actual Cost - Deposit
Required
Staff recommends to replace with the $3,220 fee with the actual cost/ deposit. These projects require a thorough review by the Planning & Building team and should be 100% cost recoverable based on the staff time spent, which could be more or less than the current fee.
Community & Economic Development Department Proposed Fee Changes Fees based on Staff/Consultant Time
Attachment 2
130 of 206
Expanded Categorical Exemption N/A- New Fee Actual Cost - Deposit Required
Staff recommends to introduce a new environmental fee of Expanded Categorical Exemption. For new development projects that are consistent with the Transit Corridor’s plan, there are several CEQA exemptions that can be used for the projects. One is an exemption for consistency with an existing specific plan. To prepare these, it requires the environmental consultant to still do an analysis of the project, do special studies and to prepare an initial study documenting the consistency with the current plan. The cost is typically lower than other CEQA documents, however it varies with projects. Staff recommends the fee calculation be based on actual staff/consultant time and cost.
Variance – Residential (Multi-Family) and
All Non-Residential 5,000.00$ Actual Cost - Deposit Required
Staff recommends to replace with the $5,000 fee with the actual cost/ deposit. These projects require a thorough review by the Planning & Building team and should be 100% cost recoverable based on the staff time spent, which could be more or less than the current fee.
Temporary Certificate Occupancy Deposit
N/A- New Fee 50% of the Remaining
Construction Value of
Project
Staff recommends an adoption of TCO Deposit based on the 50% of the remaning construction value of the project. The occupancy of a building or portion of a building may be permitted before the certificate of occupancy is issued provided a temporary occupancy permit is obtained from the Building Official.
Technology Cost
5% of the building,
mechanical,
electrical and
plumbing permit
5% of the building,
mechanical, electrical, fire
and plumbing permit
Staff recommends an addition of 5% of fire permit fee to be included in the technology cost. The additional of fire permit addresses upgrades to permitting systems and hardware. This surcharge will be prorated to building, planning, engineering, and fire fees.
Administrative Fee for Plan Check (Plan
Reviews) for 4th & subsequent submittal
N/A- New Fee
$223.50
Staff recomments an addition of Adiministrative Fee for Plan Review past 3rd submittal. The objective of the fee is to encourage applicants to thoroughly complete revisions within the first three plan reviews. Fourth and subsequent plan review services delays work on other developer projects.
Newspaper Rack Permit N/A- New Fee $87.50
Staff recommends to add Newspaper Rack Permit cost based on fully burdened hourly rate required to complete the process. Staff would meet with applicant about permit process and coordinate application submittal. Staff would also review proposed location, coordinate internally, and process permit and issue permit and coordinate posting and placement with applicant. The approximate time to complete the application process would be 30 minutes. The proposed fee is based on 30 minutes of staff time to complete the review process. The permitting of newspaper rack is aimed to reduce the amount of sidewalk clutter associated with free standing news racks.
Fixed pedestal news racks promote the safety and welfare and the aesthetic qualities of the City by controlling the placement, size, construction and appearance of news rack.
Fees based on Services, Resources, and Staff Time
131 of 206
General Plan Maintenance $ - 0.4% of Building Valuation The FY 21-22 adopted fee for the General Plan Maintenance was 9% of the building permit fee for new construction. The current proposed FY 22-23 General Plan Maintenance fee is 0%, which does not cover the cost of developing the General Plan Amendment. The General Plan Maintenance Fee was intended to directly reduce financial support needed from the City's General Fund for Long Range Planning efforts. Original projections underestimated actual costs of creating the General Plan Amendment. Several other jurisdictions collect a development-related fee to help fund the maintenance of their General Plan. This fee mechanism was put in place by the State Legislature in 2002 (Government Code 66014(b)). The fee will eliminate sole dependence on the City's General Fund for future updates of the City's General Plan and community plans. This fee will cover the staff needed to implement and prioritize the General Plan Amendment, including rezoning key sites and updating community plans. Staff reviewed fees adopted by other neighboring Cities and recomments the fee structure to be 0.4% of the building valuation. Daly City charges 0.5% of Building Valuation, South San Francisco charges0 .16% of Building Valuation, Belmont charges
0.75% of Building Valuation.
Work without a Permit- Investigation Fee N/A Up to 10 X Permit Fee Staff recommends an additional of a penalty for work without a permit. An investifation fee, in addition to the permit fee, shall be collected as a civil penalty, whether or not a permit is then or subsequently issued. The investigation fee shall be up to 10 times the building permit fee. The investigation fee shall be determined by the Building Official and shall be based on the staff time reasonably required to resolve all of the issues relegate to the work that has performed without a permit. No construction work shall be issued until the investigation fee has been paid in full. For reference, similar penalty adopted by Fire in Muni Code section 11.24.030 amended code section 106.1.2
