CITY OF SAN BRUNO
DATE: January 14, 2025
TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
FROM: Alex D. McIntyre, City Manager
PREPARED BY: Peter Gilli, Community Development Director SUBJECT: Consider Endorsing the Five-Year Long Range Planning Strategy Prioritization
BACKGROUND:
On November 19, 2024, the City Council and Planning Commission held a joint meeting on the Five-Year Long Range Planning Strategy. This link is to the agenda packet for November 19, 2024, and the staff report for the agenda topic begins on page 13 of the file.
At the conclusion of the meeting, the topic of prioritization was discussed. Due to the lateness of the hour, staff proposed scheduling this agenda item for the Planning Commission to make a recommendation on the prioritization to the City Council.
DISCUSSION:
On December 17, 2024, the Planning Commission unanimously recommended the following prioritization of the long-range planning initiatives:
Initiative Staff Recommended

C/CAG Community Based Transportation Plan 6 6
General Plan Safety Element Update 7 7
As noted at the joint meeting, the intent is that each initiative will be completed based on the timeline listed in Attachment 1. The purpose of the prioritization is to acknowledge that circumstances will occur where one initiative needs more attention than anticipated for a period of time, and that staff intends to shift resources from the lower priority initiatives to ensure higher priority initiatives stay on schedule.

CITY OF SAN BRUNO
DATE: January 14, 2025
TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
FROM: Alex D. McIntyre, City Manager
PREPARED BY: Nick Pegueros, Administrative Services Director & CFO SUBJECT: Consider Adoption of a Resolution Approving Publicly Available Pay Schedule Effective January 13, 2025 Pursuant to the Public Employees’ Retirement Law (PERL), Public Employees’ Pension Reform Act of 2013 (PEPRA), and Title 2 of the California Code of Regulations (CCR) BACKGROUND:
The City of San Bruno is a California Public Employees’ Retirement System (CalPERS) contracted agency.
CalPERS requires contract agencies to provide CalPERS with a Publicly Available Pay Schedule in compliance with the Public Employees’ Retirement Law (PERL), Public Employees’ Pension Reform Act of 2013 (PEPRA), and Title 2 of the California Code of Regulations (CCR).
The City has met this requirement historically. The current compliant salary schedule is posted on the City’s website and is available for public viewing in the Human Resources Department.
There are eight (8) requirements that must be met by a publicly available pay schedule in order for it to be used to determine pay rates by CalPERS:
1) Be duly approved and adopted by the employer's governing body in accordance with requirements of applicable public meetings laws
2) Identify the position title for every employee position 3) Show the pay rate as a single amount or multiple amounts within a range for each identified position
4) Indicate the time base, including, but not limited to, whether the time base is hourly, daily, bi- weekly, monthly, bi-monthly, or annually
5) Be posted at the office of the employer or immediately accessible and available for public review from the employer during normal business hours or posted on the employer's website 6) Indicate an effective date and date of any revisions 7) Is retained by the employer and available for public inspection for not less than five years 8) Does not reference another document in lieu of disclosing the pay rate DISCUSSION:
Staff proposes to update the Pay Schedule to reflect the following changes:
1) Incorporate the cost-of-living and equity adjustments for the six represented labor 26 of 163
Item 6e.
Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
January 14, 2025
agreements as previously approved by the City Council.
2) Incorporate new minimum wage rate law.
3) Add two new salary ranges for proposed positions of Community Development Planning Manager and Assistant Director.
4) Remove salary range for Community Development Planning and Housing Manager. 5) Amend salary range for the Principal Special Projects Manager classification. 6) Consolidate the pay schedules to include Full-time and Part-time/Temporary/ Seasonal.
Cost-of-living and equity adjustments
During negotiations with the City’s re.,,,, labor agreements, the City Council authorized cost-of- living adjustments (COLA) effective the first pay period in January of 2025 as well as various equity adjustments. Approvals for the rate changes were made at public meetings, and in summary include:
Group COLA
Mid-Management 3.0%
Miscellaneous 4.5%
Management (excludes City Manager and Unrepresented) 3.0% Police 3.0%
Public Safety Mid-Management 3.0%
Fire 3.0%
The unrepresented compensation plan, adopted in July 2024 redefined the compensation package for the unrepresented positions. There are no scheduled changes to that Plan.
New minimum wage rate
While there are no previously approved rate increases for the Part-time/Temporary/ Seasonal rates, the State of California minimum wage is $16.50 per hour for employers that have 26 or more employees effective January 1, 2025. The City of San Bruno is subject to local State of California minimum wage laws.
Staff reviewed the Part-time/Temporary/Seasonal employee positions to meet the new minimum wage requirement.
Add/Remove salary ranges for three Community Development Department positions The Community Development Department has proposed changes within the Department to utilize vacancies within the Department to support the administrative needs of the Department. These needs are required to support the five-year long-range planning strategy presented to the City Council and Planning Commission in November 2024. This includes repurposing of the current budget for the Planning and Housing Manager to Planning Manager and establishing an Assistant Director range. This proposed change further aligns the Building and Planning Divisions of the Community Development Department and is consistent with other City Department organizational and reporting structures.
27 of 163
Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
January 14, 2025
Amend range salary range for one unrepresented position The Principal Special Projects Manager classification was established in July 2024 to create a pathway for in-house management of complex, multi-departmental, and highly visible projects, including the City Council's annual priorities. Current projects underway that are ideal for the Principal Special Projects Manager include managing the construction of the Recreation and Aquatic Center project, overseeing the implementation and cross-departmental collaboration of the paid parking program, and leading the replacement of the Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) system. These initiatives significantly impact both the community and the organization.
Currently, the City fulfills its project management needs using a mix of contract project managers, City department heads, and senior management. For example, the Recreation and Aquatic Center (RAC) is managed by a project team that includes a contract project manager, the Public Works Director, and the Deputy Public Works Director - Administration and Engineering. Similarly, the Police Chief and a Captain oversee the paid parking program, while a contract project manager and the Administrative Services Director & CFO manage the ERP project. Relying on department heads for special project management detracts from their capacity to provide strategic direction to their departments and collaborate across the organization. Contract project managers have provided invaluable support in many cases.
However, their support ranges in cost and quality from $150 per hour for the ERP project, $215 per hour for the RAC project, and up to $338 per hour for specialized engineering project managers.
The Principal Special Projects Manager classification aims to provide the City with dedicated in- house resources to replace contract staff where feasible, promoting internal ownership of project timelines and quality. Staff recommends a salary range for the classification to offer flexibility in hiring at the appropriate level of expertise, which is crucial for projects authorized by the Measure Q bond measure. This classification falls under the Unrepresented Compensation Plan, and an individual hired into the classification will be either a temporary (non-benefited) or a provisional (benefited) employee appointed to a date-certain expiration of employment based on the estimated timeline of their assignments. The proposed salary range is $87.22 to $149.90 per hour, based on a 36-hour workweek or 1,872 hours per year. The fully burdened hourly rate is projected to be between $122 and $210.
The City Manager’s Office intends to hire a temporary Principal Special Projects Manager to backfill the Assistant City Manager (ACM) while the ACM is temporarily backfilling for the vacant Community Services Director pending recruitment for the permanent Director.
Consolidate pay schedules
Currently, the City has two separate pay schedules, one for Full-time represented positions and one for Part-time/Temporary/Seasonal positions. The proposed pay schedule includes the consolidation of the two schedules for ease of use and reference.
FISCAL IMPACT:
There are no new anticipated budget impacts based on the proposed changes. Previously negotiated wage changes were incorporated in the approved operating budget for both Full-time and Part-time/Temporary/Seasonal positions.
28 of 163
Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
January 14, 2025
There are no new FTE requests associated with the proposed changes.
By adopting the proposed Pay Schedule dated January 13, 2025, the action rescinds and nullifies all previously approved schedules
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT:
There is no 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:
Consider Adoption of a Resolution Approving Publicly Available Pay Schedule Effective January 13, 2025 Pursuant to the Public Employees’ Retirement Law (PERL), Public Employees’ Pension Reform Act of 2013 (PEPRA), and Title 2 of the California Code of Regulations (CCR) ALTERNATIVES:
Do not adopt a publicly available pay schedule pursuant to the Public Employees’ Retirement Law and risk potential penalties.

After several multi-family apartment fatality fires in 2016 and 2017, including the December 2, 2016, “Ghost Ship Warehouse” fire that killed 36 people, a bay area news group collected eight years of data from 12 bay area fire departments and found that many schools and apartments were not being inspected annually as required by law. In 2018, State Senator Jerry Hill (San Mateo) introduced SB1205, a bill that would require every city or county fire department, city and county fire department, or district required to perform the State Mandated inspections, to report inspection results annually. Senate Bill 1205 (Hill) was signed into law on September 27, 2018, adding Section 13146.4 to the Health and Safety Code.
DISCUSSION:
San Bruno Fire Department conducts a fire and life safety inspection program, which includes inspecting all state-mandated occupancies annually. The fire inspection cycle runs from January 1 through December 31. The purpose of annual fire and life safety inspections is to mitigate known hazards, reduce risk to the community and ensure reasonable compliance with the California Fire Code. The San Bruno Fire Department utilizes an inspection records management system (RMS), to track the annual inspections and document observed code enforcement violations. These annual inspections are conducted on iPAD’s eliminating problems associated with paper files and allowing violations to be documented in an electronic database.
Section 13146.2 of the California Health and Safety Code mandates that the local fire department inspect all hotels, motels, lodging houses, and apartments consisting of three or more attached units annually. In 2024 The San Bruno Fire Department inspected 100% of the 380 hotels, motels, lodging houses, and apartments consisting of three or more attached 36 of 163

units identified in our records management system.
Section 13146.3 of the California Health and Safety Code also mandates that the local fire department inspect all public and private schools once annually. In 2023 The San Bruno Fire Department inspected 100% of the 20 public and private school locations identified in our records management system.
Section 13146.4 of the California Health and Safety Code requires the City Council to acknowledge receipt of the report in a resolution or a similar formal document.
FISCAL IMPACT:
There is no fiscal impact.
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:
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt the attached resolution acknowledging this report on the status of all 2024 state-mandated annual fire inspections in the City of San Bruno as required by California Health and Safety Code Section 13146.4.

SB 1205, Hill. Fire protection services: inspections: compliance reporting.
Existing law requires the chief of any city or county fire department or district providing fire protection services and his or her authorized representatives to inspect every building used as a public or private school within his or her jurisdiction, for the purpose of enforcing specified building standards, not less than once each year, as provided. Existing law requires every city or county fire department or district providing fire protection services that is required to enforce specified building standards to annually inspect certain structures, including hotels, motels, lodging houses, and apartment houses, for compliance with building standards, as provided.
This bill would require every city or county fire department, city and county fire department, or district required to perform the above-described inspections to report annually to its administering authority, as defined, on the department’s or district’s compliance with the above-described inspection requirements, as provided. The bill would require the administering authority to acknowledge receipt of the report in a resolution or a similar formal document. To the extent this bill would expand the responsibility of a local agency, the bill would create a state- mandated local program.
The California Constitution requires the state to reimburse local agencies and school districts for certain costs mandated by the state. Statutory provisions establish procedures for making that reimbursement.
This bill would provide that, if the Commission on State Mandates determines that the bill contains costs mandated by the state, reimbursement for those costs shall be made pursuant to the statutory provisions noted above.

Calvin Iwan, Assistant Engineer
SUBJECT: Consider Adoption of a Resolution:
• Accepting the Winter Storm Hazard Mitigation Project within City-owned Property within Crestmoor Canyon, Located near the 1400-block of Claremont Drive as Complete;
• Authorizing the Filing of Notice of Completion with the San Mateo County Recorder’s Office; and
• Authorizing the Release of the Construction Contract Retention in the Amount of $10,215
BACKGROUND:
During the winter storms of 2022-23, severe stormwater runoffs triggered landslides in the City of San Bruno. A geotechnical engineer was retained to provide reconnaissance at six locations.
Of those six locations, three of those landslides located on City property near the 400 block of Cunningham Way, San Bruno Ave east of the access road to the Water Tank #4, and the 1400- block of Claremont Drive was determined to require engineering design and construction to install improvements.
A project was included in the FY 2023-24 Capital Improvement Program (CIP) budget to design and construct improvements at the landslide locations. To expedite the completion of the needed construction, the project is being performed in phases as designs were completed and ready to be constructed. The landslide in City-owned open space within Crestmoor Canyon behind the 1400 block of Claremont Drive on a relatively steep, graded grassy slope that is 50 to 60 feet in length. A concrete v-ditch is at the top of the slope and an access road within Crestmoor Canyon lies at the bottom of the slope. The landslide is roughly 25 feet wide and two to three feet in depth. A tension crack was observed adjacent to the northern side of the slide.
DISCUSSION:
On June 25, 2024, the City Council approved a construction contract with C2R Engineering, Inc. in the amount of $177,800 with a construction contingency of $27,000. The scope of the work included installing a mid-slope v-ditch and retaining wall, regrading portions of the hillside slope, hydroseeding disturbed and/or denuded areas on the hillside slope, and installing storm drain inlets and piping.
Change orders were issued to C2R Engineering, Inc. during the construction due to unforeseen conditions and work scope changes. The change orders included an increase in bid quantities. 42 of 163

0 The final change order amount was $26,500. The total contract amount is $204,300.
All construction work as part of this contract has been completed to the satisfaction of the City’s project management team. There are no unresolved stop notices or outstanding construction claims for this project. The construction contract required a 5% retention, which totals $10,215, be withheld by the City. Staff recommends that the City Council accept the project as complete, authorize filing a Notice of Completion with the San Mateo County Record’s Office, and approve release of the contract retention.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The Winter Storm Hazard Mitigation Project is a project within the approved FY 2023-24 CIP budget. The Winter Storm Hazard Mitigation Project within City-owned Property within Crestmoor Canyon, located near the 1400-block of Claremont Drive has an approved budget of $450,704 to complete design, bid and construction phases.

CITY OF SAN BRUNO
DATE: January 14, 2025
TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
FROM: Alex D. McIntyre, City Manager
PREPARED BY: Ari Delay, Fire Chief
SUBJECT: Consider Adoption of a Resolution Authorizing the City Manager to Execute a Second Revised and Restated Joint Exercise of Power Agreement with the San Mateo County Operational Area Emergency Services Organization
BACKGROUND:
In 1997, the County of San Mateo in cooperation with Jurisdictions within the County of San Mateo, created the Emergency Services Council (ESC) with the mission to provide planning, preparedness, public information, training, and Federal/State intergovernmental emergency services coordination for the twenty cities/towns within San Mateo County, as well as for County government to enable them to respond to, minimize the impact of and recover from a major emergency, disaster, or homeland security incident with the least possible loss of life or property.
Jurisdictions within the County of San Mateo comprise the San Mateo County Operational Area (SMCOA) and manage emergency operations through a Joint Powers Agreement (JPA) originally created in 1997. The agreement established the San Mateo Operational Area Emergency Services organization and outlined the operational structure of and funding formula for the SMCOA.
DISCUSSION:
The ESC last revised and restated the Joint Exercise of the Powers Agreement (“Agreement”) on October 17, 2014. Since the Agreement is updated as needed, it has become outdated following significant changes within the Department of Emergency Management (DEM), which now operates as a standalone agency separate from the Sheriff’s Office.
To accurately reflect the current responsibilities of the Department of Emergency Management and the Emergency Services Council, the ESC unanimously approved the changes to the JPA.
The City of San Bruno partners with ESC and DEM to receive services such as Hazmat Responses, Emergency Alert and Warning, and Training and Exercises for the Operational Area.

According to the ESC, key changes to the Agreement, include:
•Standardizing nomenclature;
•Updating agreement language; and
•Clarifying and defining the roles of the ESC, the ESC Finance Committee, and the Department of Emergency Management.
San Bruno staff also identified the following additional notable changes:
•Section 1.05 is added to the agreement providing the power to enter into real property transactions; and
•Section 2.07 amends the voting requirements to provide that “The ESC may not take any substantive action without a majority of the Member Agencies voting to take that action. Action on non-substantive procedural matters may be taken by a majority of a quorum.”
The ESC brings together local governments, special districts, and other entities to coordinate emergency planning and response, including for hazardous materials. This council engages in planning with respect to all phases of the emergency management cycle: prevention, protection, response, recovery, and mitigation efforts, while also maintaining key public information systems like SMC Alert.
FISCAL IMPACT:
There is no proposed change to the funding formula for the Joint Powers Agreement, therefore there is no fiscal impact from adopting the Resolution.
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:
Adoption of the Resolution Authorizing the City Manager to Execute a Second Revised and Restated Joint Exercise of Power Agreement with the San Mateo County Operational Area Emergency Services Organization.
ALTERNATIVES:
1. Do not approve the Resolution.
2. Request staff to bring back additional information to the City Council for consideration.

ANNEX A – COMMON TERMINOLOGY
A.01 Terminology Defined
Not all vocabulary of technical terms listed in the Agreement is used in the Agreement. In part, the terms are included as a resource to further clarify terminology utilized in documentation, field operations and/or applicable subject matter.
A.02 All-Hazards: The consideration of the full spectrum of emergencies (natural, technological, or human-caused incidents) that calls for action to protect life, property, and environment. The advantages of adopting an all-hazards approach to prepare for and respond to disasters include comprehensive planning, resource flexibility, coordination among agencies, training, and community engagement to effectively control different types of disasters to reduce or eliminate duplication of effort and cost.
A.03 California Governor’s Office of Emergency Services (Cal OES): State-level organization that functions as the central command center during major emergencies and disasters in California.
Cal OES oversees the response, direction, and coordination of state and federal resources, as well as mutual aid assets, to support diverse communities in the state.
A.04 Catastrophe: Any incident, natural or human-caused, with consequences of high rates of mass casualties, damage, or disruption severely affecting the population, infrastructure, environment, economy, national morale, and/or government functions. A catastrophic event cou ld result in sustained impacts over a prolonged period, exceed resources normally available in the impacted area, and significantly interrupt governmental operations and emergency services to such an extent that national security could be threatened.
A.05 Community Emergency Response Team (CERT): Community-level organizations of volunteer emergency workers who can provide immediate assistance to supplement the efforts of professional responders in the event of a major disaster. CERT programs train volunteers in disaster preparedness and basic disaster response skills during disaster situations so professional responders can prioritize and allocate resources to more complex tasks. Local CERT programs are supported by the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), as well as the California Governor’s Office of Emergency Services (Cal OES).
A.06 Command: The act or directing and or controlling by virtue of explicit legal, agency or delegated authority. The term “Command” may also refer to the Incident Commander.
A.07 Emergency: Any incident, natural, technological, or human-caused, that requires responsive action to protect life, property, and environment. Under the Robert T. Stafford Disaster Relief and Emergency Assistance Act (Stafford Act), an emergency means any occasion or instance for which, in the determination of the President, federal assistance is needed to supplement state and local efforts and capabilities to save lives and to protect property and public health and safety or to lessen or avert the threat of a catastrophe in any part of the United States.
64 of 163
September 19, 2024 13
A.08 Emergency Management: A subset of incident management, the coordination and integration of all activities necessary to build, sustain and improve the capability to prepare for, protect against, respond to, recover from, or mitigate against threatened or actual natural disasters, acts of terrorism or other human-caused disasters.
A.09 Emergency Operations Center (EOC): The physical location at which the coordination of information and resources to support incident management activities normally takes place. An EOC may be a temporary facility or maybe in a more central or permanently established facility, such as at a higher level of organization within a jurisdiction.
A.10 Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA): Federal-level organization that coordinates the federal government's response to major disasters and emergencies, providing support and resources to state and local authorities. Its role includes managing disaster relief efforts, facilitating recovery operations, and helping communities prepare for future incidents.
A.11 Incident: An occurrence or event, natural or human-caused, which requires a response to protect life or property.

65 of 163
September 19, 2024 14
and/or property from natural and/or human-caused disasters by avoiding or lessening the impact of a disaster and providing value to the public by creating safer communities. Mitigation seeks to fix the cycle of disaster damage, reconstruction, and repeated damage. These activities or actions, in most cases, will have a long-term sustained effect.
A.16 National Incident Management System (NIMS): A system that provides a proactive approach guiding government agencies at all levels, the private sector and nongovernmental organizations to work seamlessly to prepare for, prevent, respond to, recover from, and mitigate the effects of incidents, regardless of cause, size, location or complexity, to reduce the loss of life or property and harm to the environment.
A.17 National Response Framework: Document that establishes a comprehensive, national, all- hazards approach to domestic incident response. It serves as a guide to enable responders at all levels of government and beyond to provide a unified national response to a disaster. It defines the key principles, roles, and structures that organize the way U.S. jurisdictions plan and respond.
A.18 Operational Area (OA): An intermediate level of the state emergency services organization, consisting of SMC and all political subdivisions within the county area. In a state of emergency, the OA shall serve as a link in the system of communications and coordination between the political subdivisions comprising the OA and the Regional Emergency Operations Center (REOC) or State Operations Center (SOC). The SMC OA mirrors the County’s geographic boundaries.
A.19 Preparedness: Actions that involve a combination of planning, resources, training, as well as exercising and organizing to build, sustain, and improve operational capabilities.

A.20 Recovery: The development, coordination, and execution of service- and site-restoration plans; the reconstitution of government operations and services; individual, private-sector, nongovernmental and public-assistance programs to provide housing and to promote restoration; long-term care and treatment of affected persons; additional measures for social, political, environmental and economic restoration; evaluation of the incident to identify lessons learned; and post-incident reporting and development of initiatives to mitigate the effects of future incident.
A.21 Resources: Personnel and major items of equipment, supplies, and facilities available or potentially available for assignment to incident operations and for which status is maintained. Under the NIMS, resources are described by kind and type and may be used in operational support or supervisory capacities at an incident or an EOC.
A.22 Response: Immediate actions to save and sustain lives, protect property and the environment, and meet basic human needs. Response also includes the execution of plans and actions to support short-term recovery.
66 of 163
September 19, 2024 15
A.23 Standardized Emergency Management System (SEMS): The cornerstone of California’s emergency response system and the fundamental structure for the response phase of emergency management. SEMS is required by the California Emergency Services Act (ESA) for managing multiagency and multijurisdictional responses to emergencies in California. The system unifies all elements of California’s emergency management community into a single integrated system and standardizes key elements. SEMS incorporates the use of the ICS, California Disaster and Civil Defense Master Mutual Aid Agreement (MMAA), the OA concept, and multiagency or inter-agency coordination. State agencies and local governments are required to use SEMS to be eligible for any reimbursement of response-related costs under the state’s disaster assistance program.

City Council Agenda Item
Staff Report
CITY OF SAN BRUNO
DATE: January 14, 2025
TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
FROM: Alex D. McIntyre
PREPARED BY: Darcy Smith, Assistant City Manager
SUBJECT: Consider Adoption of a Resolution Accepting and Appropriating Grant Funding and Approving Funding Agreements with the San Bruno Community Foundation in an Amount Not to Exceed $3.4M for the Crestmoor Fields Project (CIP #51038); Authorizing the City Manager to Execute the Agreement and to Take Other Related Actions; and Determining the Project is Categorically Exempt Under the California Environmental Quality Act
BACKGROUND:
The San Mateo Union High School District (District) currently owns a 40-acre parcel located at 300 Piedmont Avenue in San Bruno, commonly known as the former Crestmoor High School (Property). The District operated the site as a high school from 1962 through 1980. The Property contained grass playing fields that were open to the public for use, including by the local AYSO and Lowen soccer clubs. The District has entered into a purchase and sale agreement with SummerHill Homes LLC (SummerHill) for the sale of the Property. Currently, the District still owns the Property. The closing date of the purchase and sale of the Property to the developer is scheduled to take place on February 6, 2025.
Residential Development Project Background
SummerHill obtained City entitlement approvals and received project environmental CEQA clearance in June 2024 to develop a new subdivision with 155 single-family homes. The project includes land dedication to the City totaling 6.9 acres of which 5.3 acres is for the primary public field use with the remainder of the dedicated land on the east side of the new Courtland Drive for recreation-supportive uses, such as walking paths and associated parking. This fall, plans for the site shifted, as the City was notified the project was being transferred from SummerHill Homes to Toll Brothers (the “Developer”) effective September 30, 2024. Toll Brothers is leading all aspects of the project going forward including the plan review and permit processing. Toll Brothers has expressed its intent to follow SummerHill’s plans and timeline for development of the site. It is anticipated that construction will start in 2025. Site work would likely commence in summer 2025, followed by vertical construction of the housing which would likely span until 2029.
Crestmoor Fields Master Plan Project Background
At the City Council meeting on October 24, 2023, the City Council reviewed and provided final direction on the Crestmoor Fields Multi Use Master Plan Project (Master Plan) for the 6.9-acre portion of the site that is proposed to be dedicated to the City as new parkland. The Master Plan 68 of 163
Item 6i.
Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
January 14, 2025
process started in January 2023 to finalize the conceptual plan for the park site with a community engagement process. The City Council adopted a Resolution on May 28, 2024, certifying a Final Environmental Impact Report and adopting a Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program, CEQA Findings, and a Statement of Overriding Considerations for the Master Plan project. Thus, the project has obtained the appropriate clearance under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). This CEQA document analyzed the establishment of multiuse sports fields with permanent lighting for soccer and other field sports.
Crestmoor Multi-Use Fields Master Plan Project Summary
The Master Plan provides for the continued use of the site for sports user groups with a large sports field facility. It includes striping for eight artificial turf soccer fields on the 5.3 acres available for field use. Not all eight soccer fields can be played at the same time since various fields overlay each other. The mix of field sizes includes a single U6 field, three U8 fields, and three U10 fields, while still providing a single 11 v 11 field. U6 is a field sized for 6-year-old players, and 11 v 11 is a full-sized high school/adult field. These field dimensions allow for inclusion of picnic areas and shelters along with a restroom/concession building that is located with greater space for gathering around it in mind. It provides an on-site parking lot and drop-off zone with access from both Courtland Drive and A Street.
With the finalization of the Master Plan in October 2023 and the preparation of the Fiscal Year 2024-25 Capital Improvement Program (CIP) Budget, City staff examined the total estimated project costs of the Master Plan which was estimated to cost approximately $9.2 million to $11.2 million in 2023 dollars, with construction inflation estimated at approximately 10% increase per year. As part of the Fiscal Year 2024-2025 Capital Improvement Program (CIP) Budget preparation, staff determined that there is not adequate funding available for the construction of the complete Crestmoor Fields Master Plan project, based on available fund balance in the City Community Facilities Impact Fee Fund or Transportation facilities Impact Fee Fund that could be utilized for this project. The Fiscal Year 2024-2025 CIP Budget included funding in the amount of $150,000 from the Community Facilities Impact Fee Fund to continue preliminary work on the project. The CIP project sheet is provided as Attachment #2.
Crestmoor Fields Master Plan Project-Proposed Initial Construction Phase 1 To move this project forward in a timely manner, City staff recommends construction of an initial phase of approximately $7 million that would include the essential components and infrastructure to allow fields to be utilized for multi-use sports, specifically AYSO and club soccer use as soon as possible. To do this successfully, staff examined a reduced phase 1 construction scope shown in Attachments #3 that would be constructed through a collaborative public-private partnership with the Developer.
The proposed project scope for this initial construction phase includes artificial turf fields consisting of eight striped overlapping soccer fields, a single-stall prefabricated restroom, a concrete pad for use by mobile concessions vendors, paved parking with parking lot security lighting, park security fencing, stormwater bioretention facility, and additional parking with a walking path along the east side of the new Courtland Drive. Additional improvements include concrete curbs, gutters, trash receptacles, regulatory signage, water and sanitary sewer utilities and meters, construction erosion control measures, storm drainage systems, irrigation systems, soil preparation and fine grading, and installation of mulch and planting of trees, shrubs and groundcover and electrical conduit for the future installation of permanent lighting for field use.
The current estimated cost for construction of phase 1 is approximately $7 million total including soft design costs, final design and plan preparation, City building permit plan check, interest
69 of 163

costs, permit and inspection costs, construction management costs, bonding, and contingency.
The cost estimates assume prevailing wages for labor.
A future construction phase 2, based on available funding, could include enhancements from the Master Plan not essential for soccer usage at this time. These could include fitness exercise stations, a concession stand, bleachers, perimeter walking track, backstop for baseball/softball use, spectator seating, storage containers, a plaza, and picnic tables. Installation of permanent lighting for the field use is also recommended to be part of a future phase, as this is estimated to cost at least $2 million. It is recommended that this be included as an optional construction bid alternative in Phase 1, which would allow for a more detailed cost estimate to be obtained and then the final decision deferred until construction starts.
In order to construct this initial phase, the City would enter into an Improvement Agreement with the Developer pursuant to the San Bruno Municipal Code. These code provisions stipulate that the Improvement Agreement can be utilized to provide for the Developer to construct, pursuant to city standards and requirements, specific public improvements for the Crestmoor Fields project that would otherwise be eligible for funding with the proceeds of the required Development Impact Fees. The Developer is required to pay the City approximately $4.9 million in total Development Impact Fees, including $3.2 million in Community Facilities Impact Fees and $700,000 in Transportation Facilities Impact Fee. The Developer would receive a credit for eligible fees upon completion of the public improvements to the satisfaction of the City, which essentially means the City would not collect these Development Impact Fees. Based on the current project components and cost estimates for the initial construction phase, staff estimates that the Developer would qualify for up to $3.2 million in Community Facilities Impact Fees credits and approximately $400,000 in Transportation Facilities Impact Fees credits. Actual amounts of the credits would be calculated later.
Developers and cities often enter into these types of agreements for construction of a variety of public improvements needed to serve new development, such as roads, sidewalks, wet utilities, parks, and other public utilities. The use of an improvement agreement for park development is very typical, especially for new parks where the land is being dedicated to a city. These are generally referred to as “turnkey parks” as the developer builds the park to the satisfaction of the city and then turns the “keys” over for City ownership and ongoing maintenance. This arrangement provides benefits to the City as the developer manages the construction, alleviating a significant amount of work for the City in an area that is generally outside the city’s expertise. Moving this forward expeditiously also meets the community’s expressed interest in having the fields available for use as soon as possible.
At a study session on August 27, 2024, the City Council expressed its interest in pursuing a public-private partnership via an improvement agreement with the Developer as the favored route to develop the fields. After this meeting, staff initiated further efforts to secure the estimated $3.4M in additional funding needed, as the cost of the construction of the improvements is estimated to exceed the Development Impact Fees credit. Staff explored various City and non-City funds, grants, other state and local grants, Development Impact Fees, Community Benefit Funds, and one-time funds.
DISCUSSION:
After analyzing various potential non-City funding options for the Project, the City determined the preferred option for funding would be a strategic grant through the San Bruno Community

Foundation. This is primarily because of the very tight timeline for the City to secure additional funding to ensure the project can be completed by the Developer during their construction of the residential project. The Developer expects to close on the purchase on the property in February 2025 and begin the construction process soon after. Thus, the City must confirm its willingness to proceed with the Crestmoor Fields Project and to enter into an improvement agreement with the Developer s in early 2025. This fast and compressed timeline, outside the City’s normal Capital Improvement Program schedule, limits the available funding sources that the City might seek out for the remaining balance and adds urgency to the City’s fiscal process.
The City submitted a Strategic Grant Proposal for the Crestmoor Fields Project on November 7, 2024, which is provided for reference as Attachment #3. On December 4, 2024, the San Bruno Community Foundation Board of Directors unanimously approved the City’s request for a strategic grant in an amount not to exceed $3.4M for construction of Phase 1 of the Crestmoor Fields Project. In their approval, the Foundation cited that supporting the City’s efforts to construct modern artificially turfed, multi-use athletic fields at the former Crestmoor High School site for the recreational use of youth sports organizations and other community members is consistent with the Foundation’s strategic grantmaking priorities of athletic field and park improvements, community health, safety, and wellness, youth and recreation activities, and community-building. The Board requested that the City and the developer include permanent lighting as an add alternate when drafting the construction bid documents in order to obtain a more accurate cost estimate, with the intent that the Foundation would consider funding the lighting separately.
With this grant, the City has finalized the proposed funding approach shown below.
Proposed Funding Approach
Funding Type Value
City Community Facilities Impact Fees - via
Impact Fee Credit for Development Project
$3.2M
City Transportation Facilities Impact Fee via
Impact Fee Credit for Development Project
$0.4M
SBCF Strategic Grant $3.4M
Total $7.0M
Next Steps
Staff and the Developer are working collaboratively to finalize an Improvement Agreement, which will return to the City Council for action, and continue to work as expeditiously as possible on the final design and construction drawings. The bidding, and all construction management, would be the responsibility of the Developer. Then, staff and the Developer will work collaboratively to finalize an Improvement Agreement for field construction and the impact fee credit, which will return to the City Council for action in late winter/early spring 2025. The City will continue to work as expeditiously as possible so the park construction can start in Summer 2025 concurrent with the construction of the residential project. Construction will take approximately 9 to 12 months, and the project is estimated to be completed in Summer/Fall 2026.

Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
January 14, 2025
FISCAL IMPACT:
The grant will provide $3.4M to the City to be utilized for construction of Phase 1 of the Crestmoor Fields Project (CIP #51038). Once completed, the Crestmoor fields will require ongoing funding from the City for their operation and maintenance, as well as for utilities and lighting costs. Staff consulted with nearby field operators and estimated that the annual cost to operate and maintain the fields will be around $35,000. If field lighting is installed, this would add an additional $50,000 per year for operation and maintenance. A separate budget should also be allocated for artificial turf replacement, estimated at $1.5 to $2 million every 8 to 10 years. These costs do not include staff time for field allocations or related tasks. Typically, field user fees are significantly subsidized by the City’s General Fund, as full cost recovery is not feasible. These costs are shown in 2025 dollars, and will increase annually.
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 a Resolution Accepting and Appropriating Grant Funding and Approving Funding Agreements with the San Bruno Community Foundation in an Amount Not to Exceed $3.4M for the Crestmoor Fields Project (CIP #51038); Authorizing the City Manager to Execute the Agreement and to Take Other Related Actions; and Determining the Project is Categorically Exempt Under the California Environmental Quality Act.
ALTERNATIVES:
1. Decline to adopt the resolution. Staff does not recommend this as the City would not be able to receive the grant funding.

1. P
rogram Description and Implementation Plan:
T
he San Mateo Union High School District (District) currently owns a 40-acre parcel located at 300 Piedmont Avenue in San Bruno, commonly known as the former Crestmoor High School (Property). The District operated the site as a high school from 1962 through 1980. Since then, the site has been used as a continuation school, alternative high school, and for private uses.
From 1987 to 2021, the grass playing fields on the site were open to the public for use and were maintained and managed by the City of San Bruno. Since 2021, the District currently has leased the playing fields on a short-term basis to AYSO and Lowen soccer clubs for youth soccer games and practices. Their leases are anticipated to expire in December 2024.
A
fter the closure of the school buildings, the soccer leagues have continued use of the fields. The District has entered into a purchase and sale agreement with SummerHill Homes LLC (SummerHill) for the sale of the Property. Currently, the District still owns the Property. Based on information from the District in the Sixth Amendment to the Purchase and Sale Agreement and Joint Escrow Instructions for the Sale of Crestmoor School Site to SummerHill Homes, LLC, the closing date of the purchase and sale of the Property is scheduled to take place on February 6, 2025.
Residential Development Project Background
SummerHill obtained City entitlement approvals and received project environmental CEQA clearance in June 2024 to develop a new subdivision with 155 single-family homes. The projec t
i
ncludes land dedication to the City totaling 6.9 acres of which 5.3 acres is for the primary public field use with the remainder of the dedicated land on the east side of the new Courtland Drive for recreation-supportive uses, such as walking paths and associated parking. This fall, plans for the site shifted, as the City was notified the project was being transferred from SummerHill Homes to Toll Brothers (the “Developer”) effective September 30, 2024. Toll Brothers is leading all aspects of the project going forward including the plan review and permit processing. Toll Brothers has expressed its intent to follow SummerHill’s plans and timeline for development of the site. It is anticipated that construction will start in 2025. Site work would likely commence in summer 2025, followed by vertical construction of the housing which would likely span until 2029.
Crestmoor Fields Master Plan Project Background
At the City Council meeting on October 24, 2023, the City Council reviewed and provided fin al
d
irection on the Crestmoor Fields Multi Use Master Plan Project (Master Plan) for the 6.9-acre portion of the site that is proposed to be dedicated to the City as new parkland. The Master Plan process started in January 2023 to finalize the conceptual plan for the park site with a community engagement process. The draft Master Plan alternatives were reviewed by the San Bruno Parks and Recreation Commission on April 19, 2023 and the San Bruno City Council on May 9, 2023.
T
he City Council adopted a Resolution on May 28, 2024 certifying a Final Environmental Impact Report and adopting a Mitigation Monitoring and Reporting Program, CEQA Findings, and a Statement of Overriding Considerations for the Master Plan project. Thus, the project has obtained the appropriate clearance under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA). This CEQA document analyzed the establishment of multiuse sports fields with permanent lighting for soccer, other field sports such as lacrosse and a practice field for baseball. 2 77 of 163
Crestmoor Multi-Use Fields Master Plan Project Summary
The Master Plan provides for the continued use of the site for sports user groups with a large sports field facility. It includes striping for eight artificial turf soccer fields on the 5.3 acres available for field use. Not all eight soccer fields can be played at the same time since various fields overlay each other. The mix of field sizes includes a single U6 field, three U8 fields, and three U10 fields, while still providing a single 11 v 11 field. U6 is a field sized for 6-year-old players, and 11 v 11 is a full-sized high school/adult field. These field dimensions allow for inclusion of picnic areas and shelters along with a restroom/concession building that is located with greater space for gathering around it in mind. It provides an on-site parking lot and drop-off zone with access from both Courtland Drive and A Street.
With the finalization of the Master Plan in October 2023 and the preparation of the Fiscal Year 2024-25 Capital Improvement Program (CIP) Budget, City staff examined the total estimated project costs of the Master Plan which was estimated to cost approximately $9.2M to $11.2M in 2023 dollars, with inflation estimated at approximately 10% increase per year. As part of the Fiscal Year 2024-2025 Capital Improvement Program (CIP) Budget preparation, staff determined that there is not adequate funding available for the construction of the complete Crestmoor Fields Master Plan project, based on available fund balance in the City Community Facilities Impact Fee Fund or Transportation facilities Impact Fee Fund that could be utilized for this project. The Fiscal Year 2024-2025 CIP Budget included funding in the amount of $150,000 from the Community Facilities Impact Fee Fund to continue preliminary work on the project.
Crestmoor Fields Master Plan Project- Proposed Initial Construction Phase 1 To move this project forward in a timely manner, City staff recommends construction of an initial phase of approximately $7M that would include the essential components and infrastructure to allow fields to be utilized for multi-use sports, specifically AYSO and club soccer use as soon as possible. To do this successfully, staff examined a reduced phase 1 construction scope shown in Attachments #1 and #2 and a public-private partnership with the Developer.
The proposed project scope for this initial construction phase in fiscal year 2025-2026 includes artificial turf fields consisting of eight striped overlapping soccer fields, a single-stall prefabricated restroom, a concrete pad for use by mobile concessions vendors, paved parking with parking lot security lighting, park security fencing, stormwater bioretention facility, and additional parking with a walking path along the east side of the new Courtland Drive. Additional improvements include concrete curbs, gutters, trash receptacles, regulatory signage, water and sanitary sewer utilities and meters, construction erosion control measures, storm drainage systems, irrigation systems, soil preparation and fine grading, and installation of mulch and planting of trees, shrubs and groundcover and electrical conduit for the future installation of permanent lighting for field use. The current estimated cost for construction of phase 1 is approximately $7 million total including soft design costs, final design and plan preparation, City building permit plan check, interest costs, permit and inspection costs, construction management costs, bonding, and contingency. The cost estimates assume prevailing wages for labor.
A future construction phase 2, based on available funding, could include enhancements from the Master Plan not essential for soccer usage at this time. These could include fitness exercise stations, a concession stand, bleachers, perimeter walking track, backstop for baseball/softball use, spectator seating, storage containers, a plaza, and picnic tables. Installation of permanent lighting for the field use is also recommended to be part of a future phase, as this is estimated to 3 78 of 163
cost at least $2 million. This could be included as an optional construction bid alternative in Phase 1, which would allow for a more detailed cost estimate to be obtained and then the final decision deferred until construction starts.
I
n order to construct this initial phase, the City would enter into an Improvement Agreement with the Developer pursuant to the San Bruno Municipal Code Section 12.260.070 “Improvement Agreement” and The Mitigation Fee Act (Government Code § 66000 et seq.). These code provisions stipulate that the Improvement Agreement can be utilized to provide for the Developer to construct, pursuant to city standards and requirements, specific public improvements for the Crestmoor Fields project that would otherwise be eligible for funding with the proceeds of the required Development Impact Fees. The Developer is required to pay the City approximately $4.9 million in total Development Impact Fees, including $3.2 million in Community Facilities Impact Fees and $700,000 in Transportation Facilities Impact Fee. The Developer would receive a credit for eligible fees upon completion of the public improvements to the satisfaction of the City, which essentially means the City would not collect these Development Impact Fees. Based on the current project components and cost estimates for the initial construction phase, staff estimates that the Developer would qualify for up to $3.2 million in Community Facilities Impact Fees credits and approximately $400,000 in Transportation Facilities Impact Fees credits. Actual amounts of the credits would be calculated later.
D
evelopers and cities often enter into these types of agreements for construction of a variety of public improvements needed to serve new development, such as roads, sidewalks, wet utilities, parks, and other public utilities. The use of an improvement agreement for park development is very typical, especially for new parks where the land is being dedicated to a city. These are generally referred to as “turnkey parks” as the developer builds the park to the satisfaction of the city and then turns the “keys” over for City ownership and ongoing maintenance. This arrangement provides benefits to the City as the developer manages the construction, alleviating a significant amount of work for the city in an area that is generally outside the city’s expertise.
Moving this forward expeditiously also meets the community’s expressed interest in having the fields available for use as soon as possible.
A
t a study session on August 27, 2024, the City Council expressed its interest in pursuing a public- private partnership via an improvement agreement with the Developer as the favored route to develop the fields.
2. Va
lue Proposition/Community Impact:
S
ince the 1980s, local youth soccer organizations have enjoyed use of the grass athletic fields for p
ractices and games on the site of the former Crestmoor High School in San Bruno. When the re
sidential project starts construction in 2025, the fields will be demolished to make way for the p
roject. The District intends to terminate the short-term leases with AYSO and Lowen soccer clubs for youth soccer games and practices. These community soccer organizations have not been able to secure comparable fields at this point.
T
he broader San Bruno community will benefit from rebuilding new state of the art synthetic turf fields at the Crestmoor site that would be owned and managed by the City of San Bruno. The proposed brand-new athletic field facility, rather than a fenced-in dirt lot, benefits the community and will enhance property values in the area. Without these fields, there would be a negative 4 79 of 163
impact on the children and active community members of San Bruno, who would not have adequate soccer fields to meet their needs. This would be another meaningful and lasting legacy for use of the restitution funds.
3. Timeline:
The Developer expects to close on the purchase on the property in February 2025 and begin the construction process soon after. Thus, the City must confirm its willingness to proceed with the Crestmoor Fields Project and to enter into an improvement agreement with Toll Brothers in early 2025. This fast and compressed timeline, outside the City’s normal Capital Improvement Program schedule, limits the available funding sources that the City might seek out for the remaining balance and adds urgency to the City’s request to the Foundation.
If t
he SBCF approves funding, City staff will present the grant award to the City Council for review and acceptance in early 2025. Then, staff and the Developer will work collaboratively to finalize an Improvement Agreement for field construction and the impact fee credit, which will return to the City Council for action in February/March 2025. The City will continue to work as expeditiously as possible so the park construction can start in Summer 2025 concurrent with the construction of the residential project. Construction will take approximately 9 to 12 months, and the project is estimated to be completed in Summer/Fall 2026.

5. N
eed for SBCF Funding:
T
he City has completed a comprehensive review of potential City funding and grants for the construction of the Master Plan. At this time, no federal, state, or local grants are available for this project. This project was not identified by the City Council as a Fiscal Year 2024-25 Priority Initiative at the City Council’s Annual Strategic Initiatives & Prioritization Retreat on February 2, 2024. The City does not have adequate additional Development Impact Fees, Community Benefit Funds, and one-time funds to fund this project at this time.
F
urthermore, the Master Plan was not identified by local voters in the 2024 Community Priorities Survey conducted by Godbe Research as a project likely to gain voter support if it were to be included in the November 5, 2024 General Election General Obligation Bond Measure. Thus, it was not included as a potential project to be funded by the revenue measure (Measure Q).
T
he City would be contributing approximately in $3.6M in impact fee credits for the project.
T
here is a very small window to secure these additional funds by the end of 2024 to ensure the project can move forward now. If the city loses the opportunity to have the developer build out the fields, then the partnership opportunity will be lost forever. The community will lose out on the most cost-effective and efficient way to get the fields completed. If this opportunity is lost, then construction costs will go up and the project won't happen anytime soon, if ever, and the land will be a fenced-in dirt lot for the foreseeable future. This will tremendously negatively impact the youth soccer groups and also be an eyesore for the community.
6. C
ollaboration:
W
hile the City is not collaborating on this project with any parties other than the developer, the C
ity has received input on the fields project and support expressed from many sources including l
ocal community members, community groups, AYSO, and soccer clubs. 6 81 of 163
7. Sustainability:
Th
e City is seeking SBCF funding for the construction of the project. Once completed, the City would fund ongoing maintenance and future repairs/turf replacement from the City’s operational budget. The City will examine preparation of an updated User Fee Study for the field rental costs, as field user fees would be charged to users to cover operating costs.

City Council Agenda Item
Staff Report
CITY OF SAN BRUNO
DATE: January 14, 2025
TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
FROM: Alex D. McIntyre, City Manager
PREPARED BY: Peter Gilli, Community Development Director SUBJECT: Consider Introducing, Reading by Title Only and Waiving a Further Reading of an Ordinance Entitled “An Ordinance of the City Council of the City of San Bruno Amending Title 11 (Buildings, Construction and Fire Protection) of the Municipal Code to Strike All-Electric Requirements in Section 11.06.030 and Article III (Zoning) of Title 12 (Land Use) of the Municipal Code to Implement Programs 10b and 11a of the 2023-2031 Housing Element and Finding the Amendment Exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act”
BACKGROUND:
This agenda item updates Title 11 of the Municipal Code regarding the allowance of natural gas infrastructure in new construction in response to a recent Court decision, and Title 12 of the Municipal Code to implement the Housing Element and comply with State housing laws.
DISCUSSION:
Title 11
In 2023, the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals overturned Berkeley’s 2019 ban on natural gas infrastructure in new construction. When the decision was made, the City ceased enforcement of the City Council adopted 2022 code that required new construction be all-electric. This proposed ordinance would strike Section 11.06.030 in its entirety, removing the all-electric requirement for new construction to be compliant with the court ruling.
Title 12
This proposed ordinance also implements two programs of the 2023-2031 Housing Element:
• Program 10b requires the City to allow housing projects to defer payment of impact fees from permit issuance to the later date of occupancy. This will apply to housing projects that meet the projected density represented in the Housing Element. Section
12.260.050 of the Municipal Code already has a process for deferred impact fee payment, which this amendment expands to fulfill Program 10b. The Planning Commission reviewed this proposed amendment on December 17, 2024 and recommended City Council approval.

Item 7a.
Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
January 14, 2025
• Program 11a requires the City to update the Municipal Code to reflect numerous State housing laws. The program allows this work to be split into two phases, one to be completed by the end of 2024, the other by the end of 2025. The Planning Commission reviewed the first phase of amendments on October 15, 2024. This phase of changes include:
oNew definitions and updates to allowed uses;
oRevised ADU regulations that reduce local design control; oRevised Density bonus regulations; and
oOther references
Adjustments and improvements to the language reviewed by the Commission are included in the ordinance that improve the clarity or compliance with State law, but these changes do not affect the spirit or intent of the regulations that the Commission supported.
FISCAL IMPACT:
There is no fiscal impact.
ENVIRONMENTAL IMPACT:
Pursuant to Title 14 of the California Code of Regulations, Section 15061(b)(3) and 15378 (b)(5), that consideration of this Ordinance is exempt from the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) in that it is not a Project that has the potential for causing a significant effect on the environment.
RECOMMENDATION:
Consider Introducing, Reading by Title Only and Waiving a Further Reading of an Ordinance Entitled “An Ordinance of the City Council of the City of San Bruno Amending Title 11 (Buildings, Construction and Fire Protection) of the Municipal Code to Strike All-Electric Requirements in Section 11.06.030 and Article III (Zoning) of Title 12 (Land Use) of the Municipal Code to Implement Programs 10b and 11a of the 2023-2031 Housing Element and Finding the Amendment Exempt from the California Environmental Quality Act” ALTERNATIVES:

12.250.050 Density bonus.
A. In determining the total number of units to be granted, each component of any density calculation, including base density and bonus density, resulting in fractional units shall be separately rounded up to the next whole number.
B. When calculating the number of affordable units needed for a given density bonus, any fractions of affordable dwelling units shall be rounded up to the next whole number.
C. Each housing development is entitled to only one density bonus. If a housing development qualifies for a density bonus under more than one category listed in Government Code Section 65915(b)(1), the applicant shall select the category under which the density bonus is granted. Density bonuses from two or more categories may not be combined, except for land donations, and pursuant to the provisions in Government Code Section 65915(v), commonly referred to as “stacked density bonus,” as amended from time to time.
D. The density bonus units shall not be included in determining the number of affordable units required to qualify a housing development for a density bonus pursuant to State Density Bonus Law.
E. The applicant may elect to accept a lesser percentage of density bonus than the housing development is entitled to, or no density bonus, but no reduction will be permitted in the percentages of required affordable units contained in Government Code Section 65915(b), (c), and (f), and (v). Regardless of the number of affordable units, no housing development shall be entitled to a density bonus greater than that allowed under State Density Bonus Law. (Ord. 1898 § 3, 2021)
12.250.060 Incentives and waivers.
A. Incentives include “incentives and concessions” as defined in State Density Bonus Law. The number of incentives that may be requested shall be based upon the number the applicant is entitled to pursuant to State Density Bonus Law.
B. Nothing in this section requires the provision of direct financial incentives for the housing development, including, but not limited to, the provision of financial subsidies, publicly owned land, fee waivers, or waiver of dedication requirements. The city, at its sole discretion,
130 of 163
may choose to provide such direct financial incentives.
C. An affordable housing project that is not subject to any limitations on density under Government Code Section 65915(f)(3) shall not be eligible to receive any waivers. (Ord. 1898 § 3, 2021)
D. The City shall grant the applicant the number of incentives and concessions required by Government Code Section 65915. The City shall grant the specific concession(s) or incentive(s) requested by the applicant, unless it makes any of the relevant written findings stated in Government Code Section 65915(d) to support not granting the requested concession(s) or incentive(s). Senior citizen housing developments that qualify for a density bonus shall not receive any incentives or concessions, unless Government Code Section 65915 is amended to specifically require that local agencies grant incentives or concessions for senior citizen housing developments.
E. Except as restricted by Government Code Section 65915, the applicant for a density bonus may submit a proposal for the waiver or reduction of development standards that have the effect of physically precluding the construction of a housing development incorporating the density bonus and any incentives or concessions granted to the applicant. A request for a waiver or reduction of development standards shall be accompanied by adequate information to allow the City to make a determination as to whether requested waiver or reduction is physically necessary to construct the housing development with the additional density allowed pursuant to the density bonus and incorporating any incentives or concessions required to be granted. The City shall approve a waiver or reduction of a development standard, unless it makes a required finding under Government Code Section 65915 (e).
12.250.070 Review procedures.
All requests for density bonuses, incentives, parking reductions, waivers, or commercial development bonuses shall be considered and acted upon by the approval body with authority to approve the development within the timelines prescribed by Government Code Sections 65950 et seq., with right of appeal as set forth in Chapter 12.78.

1. The proposed incentive does not result in identifiable and actual cost reductions to provide for affordable housing costs, as defined in Section 50052.5 of the Health and Safety code, or for affordable rents, as defined in Section 50053 of the Health and Safety Code; or
2. The proposed incentive would be contrary to state or federal law; or
3. The proposed incentive would have a specific, adverse impact upon public health or safety or the physical environment or on any real property that is listed in the California Register of Historic Resources, and there is no feasible method to satisfactorily mitigate or avoid the specific adverse impact without rendering the housing development unaffordable to low and moderate income households. For the purpose of this subsection, “specific adverse impact” means a significant, quantifiable, direct, and unavoidable impact, based on objective, identified, written public health or safety standards, policies, or conditions as they existed on the date that the application for the housing development was deemed complete.

12.230, and Section 12.250.080. (Ord. 1898 § 3, 2021)
12.250.080 Affordable housing agreement and senior housing agreement.
Except where a density bonus, incentive, waiver, parking reduction, or commercial development bonus is provided for a market-rate senior housing development, tThe applicant shall enter into an affordable housing agreement, restrictive covenant, or combination thereof (hereafter “affordable housing agreement”), or, if applicable, a senior housing agreement with the city, in a form approved by the city attorney, to be executed by the city manager, to ensure that the requirements of this subsectionchapter and Density Bonus Law are satisfied.
Prior to the construction of a housing development pursuant to a density bonus permit, the developer shall ensure continued affordability of units designated for lower and very low income households to the satisfaction of the city attorney and as required by California Government Code section 65915 or its successor statute.
Also prior to the construction of a development project pursuant to a density bonus permit, with regard to dwelling units designated for qualifying senior residents, the developer shall ensure continued restriction of those units to qualifying senior residents and qualified permanent residents to the satisfaction of the city attorney and as provided in California Civil Code section
51.3 or its successor statute.
Additionally, prior to the issuance of a density bonus permit for a development in which the units will be sold to moderate income households, the developer shall ensure that the initial occupants of such units meet the applicable income limits to the satisfaction of the city attorney and as required by California Government Code section 65915 or its successor statute.

133 of 163
Where a density bonus, waiver, or parking reduction is provided for a market-rate senior housing development, the applicant shall enter into a restrictive covenant with the city, running with the land, in a form approved by the city attorney, to be executed by the city manager, to require that the housing development be operated as “housing for older persons” consistent with state and federal fair housing laws.
The executed affordable housing agreement or senior housing agreement shall be recorded against the housing development prior to final or parcel map approval, or, where a map is not being processed, prior to issuance of building permits for the housing development. The affordable housing agreement or senior housing agreement shall be binding on all future owners and successors in interest. (Ord. 1898 § 3, 2021)
12.250.090 Design and quality.
Affordable units qualifying a housing development for a density bonus, incentive(s), waiver(s), or parking reductions shall meet the affordable housing unit standards contained in Section
12.230.080. (Ord. 1898 § 3, 2021)

Any ambiguities in this chapter shall be interpreted to be consistent with State Density Bonus Law. All code references in this chapter include all successor provisions. (Ord. 1898 § 3, 2021) Chapter 12.280 MIXED-USE ZONING DISTRICTS
12.280.010 Purpose of zoning district.
A. Central Business District (CBD). The CBD zoning district supports a vibrant downtown core that is an exciting destination for residents, workers, and visitors. The CBD zoning district preserves and enhances the main street urban fabric and character of San Mateo Avenue with targeted enhancement of existing commercial uses, additional residential units, and streetscape improvements that create an inviting pedestrian environment. The CBD zoning district implements the Central Business District land use designation in the General Plan and Transit Corridors Plan.
B. TOD-Station Office (TOD-S). The TOD-S zoning district accommodates high-intensity residential, office, and retail development within the vicinity of the new Caltrain station. New development within the TOD-S zoning district will be a focal point of new activity that is integrated with the Caltrain station, Downtown San Bruno, and surrounding areas. The TOD
134 of 163
zoning district supports a dynamic, active environment with a mixture of employment, residential, and retail uses that support a pedestrian-friendly environment. The TOD-S zoning district implements the transit-oriented development land use designation in the General Plan and the Station Area land use designation in the Transit Corridors Plan.
C. Medium Density Mixed-Use (TOD-1). The TOD-1 zoning district allows for a mixture of pedestrian-oriented land uses along San Bruno’s transit corridors. New development within the TOD-1 zoning district will support pedestrian activity, transportation alternatives, and a unique sense of place within San Bruno. High density housing will increase residents’ access to transit and support adjacent resident-serving retail and services. Streetscape improvements, upgraded storefront, and human-scaled building design will create a welcoming identity and inviting environment for pedestrians. The TOD-1 zoning district implements the Transit- Oriented Development land use designation in the General Plan and the San Bruno Avenue and Huntington Avenue designations in the Transit Corridors Plan.
D. High Density Mixed-Use (TOD-2). The TOD-2 zoning district allows for high intensity residential and commercial land uses along San Bruno’s primary transit corridors. New development within the TOD-2 zoning district will support a vibrant mixed-use corridor that supports increased transit use and supports nearby stores and services. Building in the TOD-2 zoning district will encourage increased pedestrian activity and a high quality design environment. The TOD-2 zoning district implements the Transit-Oriented Development land use designation in the General Plan and the El Camino Real designation in the Transit Corridors Plan.
E. Multi Use—Residential Focus (MX-R). The MX-R zoning district allows for multifamily housing and a variety of residentially focused uses along El Camino Real south of Crystal Springs Road. The MX-R zoning district supports a vibrant residential corridor with related, supportive residential and employment uses, but retail uses only conditionally allowed. This will allow for concentrating retail in existing retail areas. The MX-R zoning district implements the Multi-Use—Residential Focus land use designation in the General Plan.
F. Civic Center (CC). The CC zoning district allows for a high intensity integrated civic center along El Camino Real. The CC zoning district applies to the area occupied by the San Bruno City Hall, Public Library, and Fire and Police Stations. The CC zoning district allows development intensities that support transit use and increased pedestrian activity and promote a high-quality design environment. The P/QP-CC zoning district implements the Public/Quasi- Public land use designation in the General Plan and the Civic Center land use designation in the Transit Corridors Plan. (Ord. 1898 § 3, 2021)
12.280.020 Permitted uses.
Table 12.280-1 identifies land uses permitted in the mixed-use zoning districts. The regulations for each district are established by letter designations as follows:
“P” designates permitted land uses
“C” designates Use Permit required as set forth in Chapter 12.112 “-” designates land uses that are not allowed
135 of 163
A. Unlisted Uses. The land uses below are defined in Chapter 12.80, Definitions, of the San Bruno Zoning Ordinance. If a specific land use or activity is not defined, the director shall assign the land use or activity to a use type that is substantially similar in character. Use types not listed in the table or not substantially similar to the uses below are prohibited unless the community development director make a written determination that an unlisted proposed use is substantially equivalent to a permitted or conditionally listed use and is permitted if all of the following findings can be made.
1. The use is no greater in density or intensity than other permitted uses in the applicable zoning district;
2. The use is compatible with permitted or conditionally permitted uses in the applicable zoning district;
3. The use will be consistent with the purpose and intent of the applicable zoning district and any applicable adopted specific plan;
4. The use is consistent with applicable goals and policies of the General Plan and any applicable adopted specific plan;
5. The use will not be detrimental to the public health, safety, or welfare.
When the community development director determines that a proposed use is equivalent to a permitted or conditionally permitted listed use, the proposed use shall be treated in the same manner as the listed use with respect to development standards, permits required (including the need for a conditional use permit or any other planning entitlement), and all applicable requirements of the Zoning Ordinance.
B. Conditional Land Uses. Those land uses specified as conditionally permitted uses in this chapter may be permitted subject to approval of a use permit pursuant to Chapter 12.122.
C. Existing Nonconforming Uses.
1. Where a use is classified as a “conditional use” under this chapter and legally exists as a permitted use at the date of the adoption of this chapter, it shall be considered a legal nonconforming use subject to Chapter 12.92.
2. Exemptions. Permitted single-family residential uses made legal nonconforming by adoption of the ordinance codified in this title shall be exempt from the prohibition on expansion of the legal nonconforming use set forth in Section 12.92.020(B)(2).

WHEREAS, the 2023-2031 Housing Element includes Program 10b which calls for the City to adopt an ordinance to establish deferred payment of all City impact fees for housing projects on sites listed in the Sites Inventory; and WHEREAS, on December 17, 2024, the Planning Commission held a duly-noticed public hearing on a proposed amendment to the Municipal Code to implement Program 10b of the Housing Element, and on said date the public hearing was opened and held; and
WHEREAS, the Planning Commission finds that the Municipal Code amendments are consistent with the General Plan, as well as State Housing Law, Subdivision Map Act, and Planning and Zoning Laws; and; NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED by the Planning Commission of the City of San Bruno as follows:

3. The Planning Commission of the City of San Bruno hereby recommends that the City Council adopt the proposed amendments to Section
12.260.050 of the Municipal Code contained in the attached Exhibit A with any modifications to the language required to clarify language, address any clerical errors, or further the general intent of the amendments to streamline the permitting process, as approved by the City Attorney.

For phased projects, the amount due shall be paid on a pro rata basis based on the ratio of the square footage, or housing units, of the phase being constructed to the entire square footage, or housing units, of the approved development, and each portion shall be paid prior to the issuance of any building permit for each phase.
C. If applicable state law does not permit the city to require payment of the fees for a development project on the schedule set forth in subsection A of this section, then the fees for that development project shall be paid on a lump sum basis for the entire development project at the earliest date that the city is permitted to require such payment under state law. If payment is to be made pursuant to this section, the city shall not issue a building permit to the developer until: (1) the developer and the city enter into a contract for delayed payment as authorized by Section 66007(c) of the California Government Code; (2) such contract is recorded in the manner set forth in that section; and (3) unless the developer is specifically exempt from such requirement under state law, the developer posts a performance bond or a letter of credit from a federally insured, recognized depository institution to guarantee payment of the fees.
D. A housing project that meets the projected density represented in the City’s Regional Housing Needs Allocation table of the 2023-2031 Housing Element Sites Inventory may defer payment of all City impact fees to the Certificale of Occupancy or Final Inspection pursuant to Program 10b of the 2023-2031 Housing Element, subject to the developer and the city entering a recorded contract for deferred payment.

Staff Report
CITY OF SAN BRUNO
DATE: January 14, 2025
TO: Honorable Mayor and Members of the City Council
FROM: Alex D. McIntyre, City Manager
PREPARED BY: Lupita Huerta, City Clerk
SUBJECT: Receive Report and Confirm Appointment of City Councilmembers to Serve as Representatives and Alternates to San Mateo County Agencies and Other Regional Bodies
BACKGROUND:
Each calendar year, the San Bruno City Council confirms assignment of individual Councilmembers to serve as representatives to San Mateo County agencies and other regional bodies.
DISCUSSION:
As representatives on the governing board of San Mateo County public agencies and other regional boards, City Councilmembers actively participate in the formation of local policy and implementation of projects that have a region/county wide impact.
The attached matrix shows all of the county and regional agencies to which the City has an assigned representative. Some of the regional agency assignments are not made directly at the City’s discretion. These non-San Bruno appointed positions are listed separately in the attachment.
San Bruno Municipal Code section 2.04.120(A) calls for the Mayor to make all appointments to and removals from Commissions, Boards and Committees, subject to the approval of the City Council. As such, staff communicated with the Mayor, and potential appointees shown in the ”2025 Proposed Representative(s)” section of the matrix, were provided by the Mayor.
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 and Confirm Appointment of City Councilmembers to Serve as Representatives and Alternates to San Mateo County Agencies and Other Regional Bodies. 143 of 163
