Subject: Community Oversight Committee Annual Report on the Measure T - Disaster Preparedness, Public Safety, and Infrastructure General Obligation Bond Program Proceeds and Allocations for Fiscal Year 2024-2025
and specific recommendations regarding the level of spending of the Measure T authorized funds.
Acceptance of this report concludes the COC’s review of the expenditure of proceeds of Measure T bonds and the status of projects funded by the bond program in FY 2024- 2025.
BACKGROUND
On November 6, 2018, the voters of San José passed Measure T with over 70% of the electorate voting yes. The measure authorizes the City to issue up to $650 million in general obligation bonds for infrastructure projects.
As part of the Measure T bonds program, City Council was required to appoint a committee comprised of residents of San José to provide community oversight over the expenditure of the Measure T bonds. The measure also required that the size, composition, and specific responsibilities of the committee be determined by a City Council action prior to the issuance of any Measure T bonds. On June 18, 2019, the City Council approved the resolution establishing the size, composition, and specific responsibilities of the committee. The responsibilities of the Measure T COC include the following:
1) Review the expenditure of the proceeds of Measure T bonds to ascertain consistency with the voter-approved purposes for the funds; 2) In connection with the review of expenditures of Measure T bonds, review and forward to the City Council an audit of the Measure T bonds financial statements, as well as review the Director of Finance’s annual report on the amount of Measure T bonds issued, and review the amount of ad valorem tax collected for each prior FY ending June 30; and
3) Review the status of projects funded with the proceeds of Measure T bonds and forward a status report on the pending Measure T projects to the City Council.
The COC prepared and reviewed the annual report on the bond program proceeds and allocations through an ad hoc committee. The COC requested a motion to approve this report pending the format changes discussed during its meeting on January 15, 2026 and the motion was passed unanimously.
ANALYSIS
The attached annual report represents the COC report to City Council on the Measure T bonds program for City Council review and acceptance.
HONORABLE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL
February 9, 2026
Subject: Community Oversight Committee Annual Report on the Measure T - Disaster Preparedness, Public Safety, and Infrastructure General Obligation Bond Program Proceeds and Allocations for Fiscal Year 2024-2025
The COC provided general observations, recommendations, and comments regarding the authorized funds, status, and planning of Measure T projects. The major concerns highlighted in the report are the level of spending of Measure T authorized funds and the potential risk of public safety project overruns, given that, as of June 2025, most projects were still in various phases of design or construction. The COC report also discussed further analysis of the allocation, status, and results of the Measure T expenditures as reported in the audited financial statements of the San José Public Safety and Infrastructure Bond Projects Fund.
The annual report from the COC also provides the following recommendations for City Council to consider.
1) Prioritize the public safety projects slated to receive Measure T funds; 2) Continue communication with COC district representatives to facilitate communication of the results of the COC’s Measure T oversight; 3) Continue to work to appoint individuals to the open COC seats, recognizing the importance to have a full representation on the committee.
EVALUATION AND FOLLOW-UP
The bond program proceeds and allocations, and the status reports on the project expenditures and performance of the Measure T bond program are reported on a bi- annual basis to the COC and City Council. The next Measure T bond program update will be presented to City Council in March 2026.
COORDINATION
This memorandum and the COC’s annual report on the Measure T bond program proceeds and allocations have been coordinated with the City Attorney’s Office, the City Auditor’s Office, the City Manager’s Budget Office, and the Finance Department.
PUBLIC OUTREACH
On November 6, 2025, the COC conducted a public hearing to review the expenditures and the audited financial statements for the FY ending June 30, 2025. Staff from the City Auditor’s Office, the Finance Department, and a representative from Macias Gini & O’Connell, the City’s external financial auditor, attended the public hearing to answer questions from the COC. Department of Public Works staff also presented the bond expenditures and the progress of projects. The COC conducted a second public meeting on January 15, 2026, to review and approve the COC report.

1. COC FINDINGS AND CONCLUSIONS
This report provides Measure T COC general observations, comments and specific recommendations regarding the spending of Measure T authorized funds, the status and planning of Measure T projects, and the number of unfilled seats for the COC.
The bond issuance and related expenditures for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2025 have been reviewed by the COC to ensure that the proceeds have been used within the spending categories defined and authorized by Measure T and have been expended on a timely basis to ensure that the municipal bonds issued retained their tax-exempt status.
2. COC REQUEST FOR ACTION
Accept this Fiscal Year 2024-2025 Community Oversight Committee (COC) report on the Measure T Disaster Preparedness, Public Safety, and Infrastructure Bond Program proceeds and allocations and its findings and recommendations.
3. GENERAL OBSERVATIONS AND COMMENTS
$440.4 million of the three-tranche, $650 million bond measure have been issued ($239.9 million in 2019 and $200.5 million in 2021) as of the fiscal year ended June 30, 2025.
The remaining $209.6 million was issued in July 2025 and will be reported on in Fiscal Year’s 2025- 2026 annual report.
San José City’s 2018 Measure T: Disaster Preparedness, Public Safety, and Infrastructure Bond Program Audited Use of Funds for FY 2024-2025 was $107,154,634. The Total Measure T Audited Use of Funds for FY 2019 through FY 2025 was $455,312,727 or 70% of the total Measure T Proceeds.
Refer to Section 8, Table 8-1 for more information on category spending, expected expenditures and relevant percentages
a. A total of twenty-two Measure T projects are statused in the Independent Accountant’s report (attachment 1, FY 2024
-2025 Independent Accountant's Report Statement of Revenues.
Expenditures, and C hange in Fund Balance by Fiscal Year for the Period from July 25, 2019 through June 30, 2025). This COC report provides a further analysis of the allocations, status, and results of Measure T expenditures (refer to COC matrix, attachment 2, FY 2024 -2025 COC Oversight Project Item Comparison Matrix).
Measure T COC FY2024-FY2025 Report Final V3 Page 2 of 10 b. DPW issued a June 30th semi-annual Measure T status update in a report to council dated September 8, 2025 (refer to attachment 3, The Director of Public Works Status Report on the November 2018 Ballot Measure T – The Disaster Preparedness, Public Safety, and Infrastructure General Obligation Bond). COC observations and comments related thereto are summarized below:
c. With reference to table 3.1 which provides an analysis of the utilization of Measure T reserves, the data show that 83% of all available Measure T reserves have been devoted to funding project overages associated with the ten public safety projects. DPW’s September 8, 2025 Measure T update report to Council showed three public safety projects completed and the seven remaining public safety projects in various stages of completion. With only $14.5 million in reserves now available, there is little margin for error. The Public Safety projects at high risk are Fire Station 36, 911 Call Center upgrades, and Police Admin building upgrades that are still in design phase and subject to inflation. No priority has been established for these projects.
There is a real possibility that in-progress projects may have to be halted until other funding sources are located. Prior COC reports to Council have addressed various aspects of these continuing concerns – refer to Section 4, Status of Prior Year Recommendations. d. 420 miles of city streets were originally contemplated for repaving in the 2019 projected usage of $300 million of Measure T funds; according to DPW's most recent report to Council 516 miles have actually been repaved with another 105 miles slated for the current construction season and an additional 58 miles scheduled for the year after, for a total of 676 miles expected to be paved by the time Measure T's original $300 million allocation is exhausted in 2027.
DPW's report indicates that this outperformance was achieved through operational efficiencies (actual cost per paved mile below original expectations) and leveraging other funding sources. e. The Department of Transportation (DOT) Pavement Maintenance's other major funding source is the Santa Clara Valley Transportation Authority (VTA) Measure B 2016. This funds local street Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) ramp projects, remove-and-replace pavement projects, and sealing projects. This funding accounts for roughly 40% of the total funding used towards the local streets paving program annually. Table 3-2 provides the details for miles funded by Measure T, miles funded by VTA Measure B, and the total miles completed by both funding sources.

f. Bridge Project Funding. The Measure T program allocated $20 million for City-owned bridges that are designated as structurally deficient and could be vulnerable in an earthquake or other disaster. DPW is prioritizing bridges that are vulnerable to earthquakes to be completed first and then bridges that are in fair condition and/or non-vehicular bridges. In addition to the Measure T funding, DPW has identified Highway Bridge Program Federal-aid Funding, Caltrans, and Bridge Investment Credits as other potential funding sources for bridge project completion.
The COC recommends that the Bridge project funding and expenditures be tracked and reported in a manner similar to that used for the pavement program Measure T funding and VTA Measure B funding in order to distinguish between funding sources to determine what was accomplished with Measure T funding. g. The Storm Sewer Clean Water and Clean Stormwater Infrastructure Projects were originally allocated $25 million of Measure T funds and earmarked to address the River Oaks Regional Stormwater Capture Project, the Kelley Regional Stormwater Capture Project, and the Venetian Terrace Regional Stormwater Capture Project. The River Oaks Regional Stormwater Capture Project has been completed with an expenditure of $13,653,157. The COC recommends that the two remaining projects’ funding and expenditures be tracked and reported separately.
h. Measure T Completed Projects. A total of six of the twenty-two Measure T projects that are statused in the Independent Accountant’s report have been completed. Three of the completed projects are public safety projects. Table 3-3 provides a list of the projects and each project’s Initial project estimate, final project cost, and the results of expenditures Measure T COC FY2024-FY2025 Report Final V3 Page 5 of 10 Table 3-3.

4. STATUS OF PRIOR YEAR RECOMMENDATIONS
a. Measure T COC has previously recommended that Council prioritize the remaining in-progress public safety projects. COC suggests rank-ordering them for receipt of Measure T’s dwindling reserves. Moreover, should the $14.5 million reserve balance be exhausted before all projects are completed, COC recommends Council develop a “cut” list to re-direct available Measure T resources from the least important remaining project(s) to those that are deemed more important. This will help ensure that the biggest number of higher priority projects actually get completed before Measure T funds are exhausted.
b. There were three vacancies (out of a total of fifteen appointed positions) – District 8, Public Safety, and Environmental Issues. Once again, we emphasize the importance of having a fully- seated COC and are hereby encouraging the City Council to appoint individuals to fill the remaining seats as soon as possible.
c. DPW needs to ensure continued timely spending of bond proceeds to comply with IRS regulations regarding the three-year spending requirement to maintain the issuance’s tax- exempt status.
5. CONTINUING RECOMMENDATIONS
To ensure continued communication and liaison with their respective constituencies, District representatives to the COC will again be required to reach out to their respective Councilmembers to offer any support deemed necessary within their given Districts to facilitate communication of the results of the COC’s Measure T oversight to that District’s constituency. This also serves to reinforce the importance of restated prior recommendation in Section 4, item b, immediately above.
6. BACKGROUND/DETAILS ON MEASURE T
This report to the Mayor and Council provides the COC findings and recommendations for the Measure T Disaster Preparedness, Public Safety, and Infrastructure Bond Program for the period from July 1, 2024, through June 30, 2025.
On November 6, 2018, registered voters of the City of San José approved Measure T, the San José Public Safety, and Infrastructure Bonds, authorizing the issuance and sale of general obligation bonds (PSI Bonds) not to exceed $650,000,000 to be used to fund the cost of land or improvement of land of, without limitation, the following categories of projects: Traffic, Public Safety, Storm Sewer, Municipal Improvements, and Parks & Community Facilities.
The COC was authorized because of the approved San José City’s Measure T bond measure that provided for Community Oversight of the expenditure of the bonds.
On June 18, 2019, the City Council approved the resolution establishing the size, composition, and specific responsibilities of the COC.
The Measure T Community Oversight Committee serves as an advisory committee to the City Council, with responsibilities to include the following: (1) Review the expenditure of Measure T funds to ascertain consistency with the voter approved purposes for the funds; (2) In connection with the review of Measure T expenditures, review and forward to the City Council an audit of the Measure T Bonds Financial Statements for the fiscal year ending June 30th as well as the Director of Finance’s annual report on the amount of Bonds issued and the amount of ad valorem tax collected for each prior fiscal year ending June 30th; and (3) Review the status of projects funded with Measure T funds and forward a status report on the pending Measure T projects to the City Council.
Measure T COC FY2024-FY2025 Report Final V3 Page 7 of 10
7. BOND PROCEEDS AND TAX EXEMPTION REQUIREMENTS
IRS rules require 85% of the bond proceeds for the Measure T projects must be expended within the three years of bond-issuance to remain tax exempt. The three-year window was reached for the first bond-issuance in July 2022; the three-year window was reached for the second bond-issuance in July 2024. DPW staff has been closely tracking Measure T expenditures to ensure the bond proceeds are spent in accordance with the IRS tax-exempt guidelines for municipal bonds. Table 7-1 provides the Measure T yearly bond history from 2018 through 2025.
The remaining $209.6 million was issued in July 2025 and will be reported on in Fiscal Year’s 2025- 2026 annual report.

Report on the Audit of the Financial Statements
Opinion
We have audited the financial statements of the Public Safety and Infrastructure Bond Projects Fund (Fund), a fund of the City of San José (City), as of and for the year ended June 30, 2025, and the related notes to the financial statements, as listed in the table of contents.
In our opinion, the accompanying financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Fund of the City of San José, as of June 30, 2025, and the changes in its financial position for the year then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
Basis for Opinion
We conducted our audit in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAS) and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States (Government Auditing Standards). Our responsibilities under those standards are further described in the Auditor9s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements section of our report. We are required to be independent of the City and to meet our other ethical responsibilities, in accordance with the relevant ethical requirements relating to our audit. We believe that the audit evidence we have obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a basis for our audit opinion.
Emphasis of a Matter
As discussed in Note 2, the financial statements present only the Fund and do not purport to, and do not, present fairly the financial position of the City, as of June 30, 2025, the changes in its financial position, or where applicable, its cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Our opinion is not modified with respect to this matter.
Management9s Responsibilities for the Financial Statements Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of the financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and for the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Macias Gini & O9Connell LLP
2121 N. California Boulevard, Suite 750 www.mgocpa.com
Walnut Creek, CA 94596
Auditor9s Responsibilities for the Audit of the Financial Statements Our objectives are to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements as a whole are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error, and to issue an auditor9s report that includes our opinion. Reasonable assurance is a high level of assurance but is not absolute assurance and therefore is not a guarantee that an audit conducted in accordance with GAAS and Government Auditing Standards will always detect a material misstatement when it exists. The risk of not detecting a material misstatement resulting from fraud is higher than for one resulting from error, as fraud may involve collusion, forgery, intentional omissions, misrepresentations, or the override of internal control.
Misstatements are considered material if there is a substantial likelihood that, individually or in the aggregate, they would influence the judgment made by a reasonable user based on the financial statements.
In performing an audit in accordance with GAAS and Government Auditing Standards, we:
¢ Exercise professional judgment and maintain professional skepticism throughout the audit. ¢ Identify and assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to fraud or error, and design and perform audit procedures responsive to those risks. Such procedures include examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements.
e Obtain an understanding of internal control relevant to the audit in order to design audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the City9s internal control. Accordingly, no such opinion is expressed. ¢ Evaluate the appropriateness of accounting policies used and the reasonableness of significant accounting estimates made by management, as well as evaluate the overall presentation of the financial statements.
We are required to communicate with those charged with governance regarding, among other matters, the planned scope and timing of the audit, significant audit findings, and certain internal control4related matters that we identified during the audit.
Supplementary Information
Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming an opinion on the financial statements. The accompanying statement of revenues, expenditures, and change in fund balance by fiscal year for the period from July 25, 2019 through June 30, 2025, is presented for purposes of additional analysis and is not a required part of the financial statements. Such information is the responsibility of management and was derived from and relates directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the financial statements. The information for the year ended June 30, 2025 has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the financial statements and certain additional procedures, including comparing and reconciling such information directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the financial statements or to the financial statements themselves, and other additional procedures in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. In our opinion, the supplementary information for the year ended June 30, 2025 is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the financial statements as a whole.
We also have previously audited, in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America, the Fund9s financial statements as of and for the period from July 25, 2019 through June 30, 2024, which are not presented with the accompanying financial statements. In our reports dated November 17, 2020, November 3, 2021, October 18, 2022, October 13, 2023, October 17, 2024, we expressed unmodified opinions on the Fund9s financial statements. The audits were conducted for the purpose of forming opinions on the financial statements as a whole. The information for the period from July 25, 2019 through June 30, 2024 has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audits of those financial statements and certain additional procedures, including comparing and reconciling such information directly to the underlying accounting and other records used to prepare the financial statements or to the financial statements themselves, and other additional procedures in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. In our opinion, the information for the period from July 25, 2019 through June 30, 2024 is fairly stated, in all material respects, in relation to the financial statements from which they have been derived.
Other Reporting Required by Government Auditing Standards In accordance with Government Auditing Standards, we have also issued our report dated October 3, 2025 on our consideration of the City9s internal control over the Fund9s financial reporting and on our tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, and grant agreements and other matters. The purpose of that report is solely to describe the scope of our testing of internal control over financial reporting and compliance and the results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on the effectiveness of the City9s internal control over the Fund9s financial reporting or on compliance. That report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards in considering the City9s internal control over the Fund9s financial reporting and compliance.

NOTE 2 4-SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying financial statements present only the financial position and the changes in financial position of the Public Safety and Infrastructure Bond Projects Fund (Fund) and do not purport to, and do not, present fairly the financial position of the City, as of June 30, 2025, and the changes in its financial position, or where applicable, its cash flows for the year then ended in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
A capital projects fund (governmental fund) is used to account for the City9s Public Safety and Infrastructure Bond Projects activities. Capital projects funds are used to account for financial resources (e.g., bond proceeds and investment income) that are restricted, committed, or assigned to expenditures for capital outlays, including the acquisition of land or acquisition and construction of major governmental facilities.

(A Fund of the City of San José)
Notes to the Financial Statements (Continued)
For the Year Ended June 30, 2025
NOTE 2 4-SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued) Basis of Accounting
The Fund9s activity is reported using the current financial resources measurement focus and the modified accrual basis of accounting. Revenues are recognized as soon as they are both measurable and available.
Revenues are considered to be available when they are collectible within the current period or soon enough thereafter to pay liabilities of the current period. The Fund considers revenues to be available if collected within 60 days of the end of the current fiscal period. Expenditures are generally recorded when a liability is incurred, as under accrual accounting. However, expenditures related to vacation, sick leave, claims and judgments are recorded only when payment is due.
Restricted Cash and Investments
Cash and investments that are restricted for specified uses by bond covenants or other requirements are classified as restricted. The Fund9s restricted cash and investments are held in the City Treasury and in fiscal agent accounts to be spent only on authorized capital projects. The Fund9s restricted cash and investments are subject to the requirements of the City9s adopted investment policy and bond indentures.
The fair value of investments is based on quoted market information obtained from fiscal agents or other sources.
Fund Balance
Under Governmental Accounting Standards Board Statement No. 54, Fund Balance Reporting and Governmental Fund Type Definitions, the balance sheets of governmental funds classify fund balances based primarily on the extent to which the Fund is bound to honor constraints on the specific purposes for which those funds can be spent. The Fund only has restricted fund balance at June 30, 2025. Restricted fund balance represents amounts when constraints placed on use of resources are either (1) externally imposed by creditors (such as through debt covenants), grantors, contributors, or laws or regulations of other governments; or (2) imposed by law through constitutional provisions or enabling legislation.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make certain estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts and disclosures. Accordingly, actual results may differ from those estimates.

Notes to the Financial Statements (Continued)
For the Year Ended June 30, 2025
NOTE 3 4 RESTRICTED INVESTMENTS
A summary of the Fund9s restricted investments at June 30, 2025 are as follows:
Moody9s Credit Weighted Average
Type of investment Fair Value Risk Rating Maturity
State of California Local Agency Investment Fund $ 37,150,194 Unrated 248 days Wilmington Trust Money Market Mutual Fund 7,702,394 Aaa-mf 36 days Total investments $ 44,852,588
The Fund has investments subject to provisions of the bond indentures of its various bond issues.
According to the bond indentures, the Fund is permitted to invest in the City9s cash and investment pool, the State of California Local Agency Investment Fund (LAIF), obligations of the U.S. Treasury or U.S. government agencies, time deposits, money market mutual funds invested in U.S. government securities, along with various other investments.
The Fund maintains part of its investments in the City9s cash and investment pool. The amounts held in the City9s investment pool can be withdrawn upon demand. Income and losses arising from the investment activity of pooled cash are allocated to the participating funds on a monthly basis, based on their proportionate shares of the average daily cash balance. As of June 30, 2025, the Fund has a negative unrestricted pooled balance of $15,049,068 in the City9s cash and investment pool, which is included as a payable to the City of San José on the accompanying financial statements.
Information regarding the characteristics of the entire City9s cash and investment pool can be found in the City9s basic financial statements for the year ended June 30, 2025. A copy of that report may be obtained by contacting the City9s Finance Department, 200 East Santa Clara Street, 13"Floor, San José, CA, 95113 or can be found at the City9s Finance Department Website at http://www.sanjoseca.gov.
Government Code Section 16429.1 authorizes each local government agency to invest funds in the LAIF administered by the California State Treasurer. The total amount recorded by all public agencies in LAIF at June 30, 2025 was approximately $24.5 billion. LAIF is part of the State9s Pooled Money Investment Account (PMIA). The total amount recorded by all public agencies in PMIA at June 30, 2025 was approximately $178.1 billion and of that amount, 96.2% was invested in non-derivative financial products and 3.8% in structured notes and asset backed securities. The Local Investment Advisory Board (Board) has oversight responsibility for LAIF. The Board consists of five members as designated by State statute.
The value of the pool shares in LAIF, which may be withdrawn, is determined on an amortized cost basis, which is different than the fair value of the Fund9s position in the pool.
Credit Risk
Credit risk is the risk that an issuer of an investment will not fulfill its obligation to the holder of the investment. This risk is measured by the assignment of a rating by nationally recognized statistical rating organizations. The City9s investment policy has mitigated credit risk by limiting investments to the safest types of securities, by prequalifying financial institutions, by diversifying the portfolio, and by establishing monitoring procedures.

(A Fund of the City of San José)
Notes to the Financial Statements (Continued)
For the Year Ended June 30, 2025
NOTE 3 4 RESTRICTED INVESTMENTS (Continued)
Concentration Credit Risk
Concentration of credit risk is the risk that the failure of any one issuer would place an undue financial burden on the Fund. Investments issued by or explicitly guaranteed by the U.S. government and investments in mutual funds and other pooled investments are exempt from this requirement, as they are normally diversified themselves.
Interest Rate Risk
Interest rate risk is the risk that changes in market rates will adversely affect the fair value of an investment. Generally, the longer the maturity of an investment the greater the sensitivity of its fair value to changes in market rates. The City9s investment policy has mitigated interest rate risk by establishing policies over liquidity, including maturity limits by investment classification. These limits, for investments other than external investment pools and money market mutual funds, range from 10 days to 5 years depending on the investment classification.
Fair Value Measurement Categorization
The Fund categorizes its fair value measurements within the fair value hierarchy established by generally accepted accounting principles. Level 1 inputs are quoted prices in an active market for identical assets; Level 2 inputs are significant other observable inputs; and Level 3 inputs are significant unobservable inputs. The inputs and techniques used for valuing securities are not necessarily an indication of risk associated with investing in those securities. The City9s investment in Wilmington Trust Money Market Mutual Funds is measured at level 1 inputs, while investments in the City9s cash and investment pool and LAIF are not subject to fair value hierarchy.

NOTE 5 4 GENERAL OBLIGATION BONDS
On July 25, 2019, the City issued Series 2019 General Obligation Bonds (2019 Bonds) pursuant to the fiscal agent agreement with Wilmington Trust. The 2019 Bonds were the first tranche of bonds issued under Measure T, as disclosed in Note 1. Proceeds from the 2019 Bonds in the amount of $239,900,000 and a bond premium at issuance in the amount of $34,158,933 were issued for Measure T purposes. The premium was used to pay debt service on the Series 2019 A-2 taxable Measure T Bonds in the amount of $33,114,340, to pay cost of issuance, and to fund the debt service accounts. The proceeds related to the premium in excess of the amounts necessary to pay debt service on the 2019 A-2 Bonds, cost of issuance, and debt service fund deposits amounted to $95,698, and was deposited into the Public Safety and Infrastructure Bond Projects Fund for Measure T purposes. 11 CITY OF SAN JOSE

For the Year Ended June 30, 2025
NOTE 5 4 GENERAL OBLIGATION BONDS (Continued)
On July 29, 2021, the City issued $200,530,000 of General Obligation Bonds, consisting of Series 2021A (in the principal amount of $151,210,000), Series 2021B (federally taxable, in the principal amount of $8,450,000) and Series 2021C (federally taxable, in the principal amount of $40,870,000) (collectively, the <2021 GO Bonds=). The 2021 GO Bonds constitute the second round of general obligation bonds issued under the Measure T authorization of $650,000,000 for Disaster Preparedness, Public Safety, and Infrastructure, approved by the voters in November 2018. The 2021 GO Bonds are secured by a pledge of the City to levy ad valorem property taxes without limitation of rate or amount (except certain personal property which is taxable at limited rates). The ad valorem property tax levy is calculated for each fiscal year to generate sufficient revenue to pay 100% of annual debt service net of other available funding sources.
The 2019 and 2021 Bonds related to Measure T are reported in capital projects and debt service funds of the City, and further details can be located in the City9s annual comprehensive financial report.
NOTE 6 4- SUBSEQUENT EVENT
On July 23, 2025, the City issued $209,570,000 of General Obligation Bonds, consisting of Series 2025A (tax-exempt, in the principal amount of $181,740,000), Series 2025B (federally taxable, in the principal amount of $15,190,000) and Series 2025C (federally taxable, in the amount of $12,640,000) (collectively, the <2025 GO Bonds=). The 2025 GO Bonds constitute the third and final issuance of bonds under the Measure T authorization of $650,000,000 for Disaster Preparedness, Public Safety, and Infrastructure, approved by the voters in November 2018. The aggregated true interest cost is 4.432%. The 2025 GO Bonds were issued as long-term fixed-rate debt with level debt service with the final maturity of September 1, 2055. The 2025 GO Bonds are secured by a pledge of the City to levy ad valorem property taxes without limitation of rate or amount (except certain personal property which is taxable at limited rates). The ad valorem property tax levy is calculated for each fiscal year to generate sufficient revenue to pay 100% of annual debt service net of other available funding sources.

Independent Auditor9s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting and on Compliance and Other Matters Based on an Audit of Financial Statements Performed in Accordance With Government Auditing Standards City Council and
Members of the Measure T Community Oversight Commission City of San José, California
We have audited, in accordance with the auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and the standards applicable to financial audits contained in Government Auditing Standards, issued by the Comptroller General of the United States (Government Auditing Standards), the financial statements of the Public Safety and Infrastructure Bond Projects Fund (Fund), a fund of the City of San José (City), as of and for the year ended June 30, 2025, and the related notes to the financial statements, and have issued our report thereon dated October 3, 2025.
Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
In planning and performing our audit of the financial statements, we considered the City9s internal control over the Fund9s financial reporting (internal control) as a basis for designing audit procedures that are appropriate in the circumstances for the purpose of expressing our opinion on the financial statements, but not for the purpose of expressing an opinion on the effectiveness of the City9s internal control.
Accordingly, we do not express an opinion on the effectiveness of the City9s internal control.
A deficiency in internal control exists when the design or operation of a control does not allow management or employees, in the normal course of performing their assigned functions, to prevent, or detect and correct, misstatements on a timely basis. A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of the entity9s financial statements will not be prevented, or detected and corrected, on a timely basis. A significant deficiency is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control that is less severe than a material weakness, yet important enough to merit attention by those charged with governance.
Our consideration of internal control was for the limited purpose described in the first paragraph of this section and was not designed to identify all deficiencies in internal control that might be material weaknesses or significant deficiencies. Given these limitations, during our audit we did not identify any deficiencies in internal control that we consider to be material weaknesses. However, material weaknesses or significant deficiencies may exist that were not identified.
Report on Compliance and Other Matters
As part of obtaining reasonable assurance about whether the Fund9s financial statements are free from material misstatement, we performed tests of its compliance with certain provisions of laws, regulations, contracts, and grant agreements, noncompliance with which could have a direct and material effect on the financial statements. However, providing an opinion on compliance with those provisions was not an objective of our audit, and accordingly, we do not express such an opinion. The results of our tests disclosed no instances of noncompliance or other matters that are required to be reported under Government Auditing Standards.

Purpose of this Report
The purpose of this report is solely to describe the scope of our testing of internal control and compliance and the results of that testing, and not to provide an opinion on the effectiveness of the entity9s internal control or on compliance. This report is an integral part of an audit performed in accordance with Government Auditing Standards in considering the entity9s internal control and compliance. Accordingly, this communication is not suitable for any other purpose.

Independent Accountant9s Report on Compliance with Measure T City Council and
Members of the Measure T Committee Oversight Commission City of San José, California
We have examined the City of San José9s (City) compliance with certain provisions of Measure T for the year ended June 30, 2025 as follows:
e Bond proceeds were used to pay for the cost of land or improvement of land of, without limitation, the following categories of projects.
o The upgrade of 911 communications, police, fire and paramedic facilities to improve emergency and disaster response;
o Repair deteriorating bridges vulnerable to being damaged in an earthquake; o Repaving local and neighborhood streets and potholes in the worst condition; o Preventing flooding and water quality contamination; and o Repair or replace critical infrastructure that is likely to reduce long-term spending on operations or maintenance.
Management is responsible for the City9s compliance with those requirements. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the City9s compliance based on our examination.
Our examination was conducted in accordance with attestation standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. Those standards require that we plan and perform the examination to obtain reasonable assurance whether the City complied with the specified requirements, in all material respects, with the specified requirements referenced above. An examination involves performing procedures to obtain evidence about the City9s compliance with the specified requirements.
The nature, timing, and extent of the procedures selected depend on our judgment, including an assessment of the risks of material noncompliance, whether due to fraud or error. We believe the evidence we obtained is sufficient and appropriate to provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
We are required to be independent and to meet our other ethical responsibilities in accordance with relevant ethical requirements relating to the engagement.
Our examination does not provide a legal determination on the City9s compliance with the specified requirements.
In our opinion, the City complied, in all material respects, with the aforementioned requirements for the year ended June 30, 2025.

The Measure T program designated $300 million for the repair or rehabilitation of local and neighborhood streets in the worst condition. In 2019, this meant resurfacing a total of 420 miles of streets using Measure T funds. However, as pavement conditions deteriorated over time, more streets fell into the rehabilitation category for pavement treatment. To deliver the pavement program efficiently, staff divided stretches of roadways into zones and prioritized these zones based on overall conditions while also leveraging other funding sources to supplement and deliver projects efficiently and effectively. Approximately 516 miles have been resurfaced since 2020 utilizing Measure T funds. The City is currently projecting to complete paving about 92% of its local and neighborhood streets by 2028.

Subject: Status Report on the 2018 Ballot Measure T – The Disaster Preparedness, Public Safety, and Infrastructure General Obligation Bond
1) Measure T Community Oversight Committee – The committee met on June 26, 2025, to review the 2025-2026 Proposed Biennial Capital Budget and 2026- 2030 Capital Improvement Program, approve the creation of an ad hoc committee, approve the committee by-laws, and vote on a new chair and vice chair. The ad hoc committee is comprised of six members and one alternate that will review and make recommendations to the larger Measure T Community Oversight Committee based on the annual independent auditor’s report and annual expenditures of the Measure T Bond funds.
The next meeting will be held on November 6, 2025, to review the annual independent auditor’s report on the expenditures from fiscal year 2024-2025.
Currently, there are 13 committee seats filled and two vacant seats from District 8 and the Citywide – Public Safety.
2) Public Safety Projects – The Measure T program allocates $220.5 million to complete public safety projects. Site selection, land acquisition, and scoping for the majority of projects have been completed and many of the projects are either in design or construction. Since many projects have now moved into the construction phase, staff has a clear understanding of the spending and funding needs to complete all projects identified at the time the bond measure was passed. The updated schedules for all pending public safety projects are shown in Attachment B – Public Safety Project Estimated Schedules. Additionally, Attachment C – Completed Public Safety Projects reflects all public safety projects that have been completed. A summary of current activities in the public safety category is below.
(a) Relocated Fire Station 8 – The construction project was awarded on August 15, 2023, to the lowest responsive bidder, DL Falk Construction, Inc., in the amount of $10,526,000. The project began construction in October 2023 with final completion originally anticipated in spring 2025. Due to unforeseen conditions such as the switchgear arriving beyond the anticipated arrival date and the changes to the relocation of the Pacific Gas and Electric Company (PG&E) vault, the expected completion is now October 2025.
(b) New Fire Station 32 – The project was awarded to the lowest responsive bidder, Gonsalves & Stronck Construction Company, on June 18, 2024, in the amount of $12,867,777 which included the award of bid alternates for expansion of the facility to be a dual company fire station, as well as the installation of a rooftop solar photovoltaic system. The project required an additional $3 million from Fund 498 – Measure T Public Safety Program Reserve to cover the costs for the dual company area of the project. The project began construction in August 2024 with final completion anticipated for spring 2026. Although this facility is being constructed to house both an

engine and a truck company, the 2025-2026 Adopted Operating Budget deferred funding for the truck company to contribute towards addressing the General Fund shortfall. Staffing augmentations for the truck company will be evaluated annually with consideration towards the City’s General Fund position and other critical City Council priorities.
(c) Relocated Fire Station 23 (Land Acquisition Only) – This project includes a budget of $4.1 million, dedicated solely for the purchase of a property for the future relocation of the fire station. A suitable site for Fire Station 23 has been identified and staff have engaged the landowner in negotiations. To support property acquisition, the project first needs to complete an environmental review under the California Environmental Quality Act. The California Environmental Quality Act is currently under review. Staff anticipates returning to City Council with recommendations for the potential acquisition of the property once the project’s California Environmental Quality Act analysis is complete, which is anticipated at the end of this calendar year 2025.
The project is estimated to need an additional $18 million to complete both the design and construction. To proceed with the design of Fire Station 23, staff will need to prioritize the remaining public safety projects and identify program savings or other funding opportunities, such as grants or funding in the General Fund and Fire Construction and Conveyance Tax Fund. The relocation of Fire Station 23 will improve coverage within the city limits and accounts for planned developments in North San José. Fire Station 23 is the fourth priority fire station approved by City Council in the June 18, 2019 memorandum
Measure T – New Fire Station Placement Prioritization (Item
8.1), and is the last fire station in need of land acquisition.
(d) New Fire Station 36 – The City has acquired the land located at the intersection of Capitol Expressway and Tuers Road for the construction of Fire Station 36. The project is currently fully funded. Staff have started the design process and anticipates completing the design in fall of 2026 with construction completion anticipated in fall of 2028.
(e) Police Training and Academy Facility – The City acquired 300 Enzo as the site for the relocated Police Training and Academy in March 2021. The project was awarded on December 5, 2023, to the lowest responsive bidder, Midstate Construction, in the amount of $28,748,000. The project construction start date was March 11, 2024; final completion is anticipated for spring of 2026. Originally, the project was expected to be completed late 2025; however, the project schedule has been impacted due to unforeseen conditions within the existing building discovered during the course of construction.

(f) Emergency Operations Center – The project, in conjunction with the Fire Department Training Center, was awarded on January 12, 2021 to Zovich Construction, Inc. in the amount of $54,105,000. The project received a temporary Certificate of Occupancy in April 2024 and was extended through November 2024, with minor punch list items remaining to be completed prior to final project acceptance. Building 1 includes the Fire Training Center, partial Fire Information Technology team, and the City Manager’s Office of Emergency Management. Building 2 includes the Emergency Operations Center, which has ongoing heating, ventilation and air conditioning system challenges in the computer network room. Staff have been actively monitoring and are seeking further actions with the general contractor to remedy the situation, with an estimated completion date of January 2026.
(g) 9-1-1 Call Center Renovation – This project improves working conditions and creates a more efficient space for additional dispatch personnel to handle increasing call volumes. This project will also allow the City of San José to keep pace with evolving methods and technologies the public utilizes when calling for a 9-1-1 service. The 9-1-1 Call Center renovation will expand into the space previously used for the Emergency Operations Center in the Police Administration Building. The 9-1-1 Call Center Renovation project was advertised in June; however, no responsive bids were received. Alternative approaches are being considered, and the project may be re-advertised in the near future. Pending a successful re-bid, construction is projected to commence late December 2025 and conclude late 2026.
(h) Police Air Support Unit Hangar – The location of this project is 1114 Coleman Avenue, on the corner of Coleman Avenue and Airport Boulevard, next to the recently completed Aircraft Rescue and Fire Fighting Facility (Fire Station 20). The project was awarded on November 7, 2023, to the lowest responsive bidder, DL Falk Construction, Inc., in the amount of $12,660,000, and included the bid alternate for the construction of the second aircraft hangar bay for a future fixed-wing aircraft. The project began construction in January 2024, with final completion anticipated in October 2025. Due to constructability issues with some of the critical items such as fire foam suppression system and switchgear installation, the project completion schedule has been impacted.
On June 17, 2025, City Council approved staff’s recommendation to increase the construction contingency from 10% to 14% for this project. An additional contingency amount was needed to install the required fire foam suppression system within the hangar and construct the associated building modifications.
Overall, the project’s budget increased by $1.1 million, with the funding coming from the Program Reserve for Public Safety.

(i) Police Administration Building Upgrades (originally reported as Police Headquarters Infrastructure Upgrades) – Staff completed preliminary scoping exercises, working closely with the Police Department to identify potential projects to be completed at the Police Administration Building. The highest priority projects identified include improvements to the plumbing throughout the facility, heating, ventilation, and air conditioning system upgrades in the existing range, and an upgrade of the existing gun range target system. As part of the March 14, 2023, update, City Council approved increasing the project budget to $6.3 million to address these high-priority projects.
The target system replacement for the existing gun range at the Police Administration Building has been completed. Staff is currently working on the preliminary design for the plumbing system with the intention to complete design in May 2026 and start construction by summer of 2026. Staff will be analyzing the existing heating, ventilation, and air conditioning system for appropriate improvements and determining the project need against the available budget for this project and other Public Safety projects.
(j) Program Reserve for Public Safety – Initially, $36.42 million of the Measure T Public Safety and Infrastructure Bond funds were set aside in the reserve for various projects, including: Police Administration Building Upgrades, 9-1-1 Call Center Upgrades, rehabilitation of various fire stations, as well as a contingency for public safety projects. Subsequently, funding has been allocated to various public safety projects once the scopes were defined or to offset higher costs of construction awards. As of July 1, 2025 the reserve balance currently stands at $18.6 million. The goal of the reserve is to have funds available to be allocated for the design and construction of Fire Station 23; however, these funds could potentially be used for other Measure T priority projects pending bid results.
(k) Arbitrage Rebate Reserve – This new reserve was created in FY 2025-2026 to set aside funding for payments to the Internal Revenue Service. Investment earnings in excess of the arbitrage yield on tax-exempt bond proceeds are to be rebated to the Internal Revenue Service at the end of every fifth bond year. For the bond year ending September 1, 2024, the cumulative interest earnings for the tax-exempt 2021A Bonds are estimated to exceed the arbitrage yield by $4.4 million, which will be subject to rebate to the Internal Revenue Service in 2026. The excess interest earnings are a result of rising interest rates and slower spending of the bond proceeds than anticipated. In the event that payback is not required or less than estimated, the remaining funding in the Reserve will be used for Measure T projects.

3) Pavement and Bridge Maintenance
(a) Street Resurfacing Projects – The City’s 2,519-mile pavement network includes 967 miles of major streets (arterials and collectors) and 1,552 miles of local and neighborhood streets. The Measure T program designated $300 million for the repair or rehabilitation of local and neighborhood streets in the worst condition. In 2019, this meant resurfacing 420 miles of streets using Measure T funds. However, as pavement conditions deteriorated over time, more streets fell into the rehabilitation category for pavement treatment. To deliver the pavement program efficiently, staff divided stretches of roadways into zones and prioritized these zones based on overall conditions and ability to leverage other funding sources to supplement and deliver projects efficiently and effectively. This has proven to have significant benefits by reducing mobilization costs, shortening the project delivery timeline, and stretching the Measure T funds as streets deteriorate over time and fall under the rehabilitation category-enabling the Department of Transportation (DOT) to deliver many more miles of resurfaced roads than originally expected
DOT has resurfaced about 516 miles of roadway since 2020 utilizing Measure T funds. In the March 2025 report to City Council, an incorrect total miles resurfaced was reported, which included roadway resurfaced through other funding sources. This error has been corrected and is now appropriately reflected in this report.
For the 2025 construction season, DOT plans to complete maintenance using a resurfacing treatment on 105 miles of San José local and neighborhood streets, with about $50 million in Measure T funding. A map showing the locations can be found in Attachment D – City of San José 2020-2025 Local Streets Measure T Streets.
In the 2026 construction season, DOT plans to resurface 55 miles of local and neighborhood streets using Measure T funding. In 2026, DOT will strategically reduce the paved miles to prioritize efficiency and sustainability, ensuring that investments keep pace with rising construction and project preparation costs.
DOT continues to provide updated memoranda every spring to share tentative construction plans with the public.
(b) Bridge Repair and Rehabilitation Projects – The Measure T program allocated $20 million for City-owned bridges that are designated as structurally deficient and could be vulnerable in an earthquake or other disaster. To address as many bridge projects as possible, staff implemented a delivery strategy aimed at leveraging multiple funding opportunities, such as Measure T and the Highway Bridge Program federal-aid funding, which consists of Bridge Investment Credits.
HONORABLE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL
September 8, 2025
Subject: Status Report on the 2018 Ballot Measure T – The Disaster Preparedness, Public Safety, and Infrastructure General Obligation Bond
Caltrans has approved $3 million in Bridge Investment Credits for the City.
The City can use the credits as a matching fund for any future federal-aid bridge projects. Staff anticipates additional approval of approximately $1.7 million in 2025. Between 2018 and 2024, staff completed the rehabilitation work for 59 bridges and applied for Bridge Investment Credits upon completion of the projects. Currently, eight bridges under the Bridge Investment Credit program are in design and expected to begin construction in spring 2026.
Staff will be ready to apply for grant funds as soon as funding becomes available, as the bridge investment credits do not expire. Staff will continue to work with counterparts at Caltrans to maximize grant opportunities and advocate for the increased availability of program funds. New federal requirements on grants have recently been imposed, which may affect the acceptance and administration of Highway Bridge Program funds. Staff will coordinate with the City Attorney’s Office for further evaluation of future grant opportunities.
With the continuous uncertainty of the Highway Bridge Program, staff is shifting gears to focus on other bridge projects that pose a vulnerability to earthquakes. Staff has identified a specific criterion in spending the remaining Measure T funds. This includes prioritizing bridges that are vulnerable to earthquakes, projects that have quick turnaround to complete to ensure we meet the spend down requirement, and projects that are vehicular bridges.
Once those types of projects have been exhausted, staff will evaluate the next level of criteria in which bridges are in fair condition and/or non-vehicular bridges.
4) Light Emitting Diode (LED) Outdoor Lighting Projects
(a) City Facilities LED Lighting Projects –Table 1 below lists the city-owned facilities in conversion priority order, provides details about the total number of fixtures, as well as the number of fixtures that have been converted to date for each category utilizing Measure T funding. As staff evaluated the outdoor lighting inventory, the number of fixtures needing to be converted for City- owned facilities grew by over 1,000. In addition, the cost for the fixtures is higher than originally anticipated. Two alternative funding sources have been identified to ensure the remaining outdoor facility lights could proceed with being converted to LED. Staff was able to secure $500,000 from the Community Development Block Grant program through the Housing Department to address the exterior and interior lighting at the following 10 fire stations; 3, 5, 7, 16, 18, 20, 26, 30, 34, and 35. An additional $2.4 million was shifted from the LED Streetlights Conversion project to complete the conversion of all City facilities. This work is estimated to be completed by
HONORABLE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL
September 8, 2025
Subject: Status Report on the 2018 Ballot Measure T – The Disaster Preparedness, Public Safety, and Infrastructure General Obligation Bond
June 2026. Staff will continue to coordinate with project managers to ensure all new future developments are scoped to include the new LED lighting and controllers in the base design.

*Lighting conversion funded by the Community Development Block Grant. All other conversions will be funded by Measure T.
(b) Lighting Controls for City Facilities – To date, there have been 5,566 nodes installed. Staff is working to install the remaining 3,276 nodes, for a total of 8,842 nodes citywide, of which Measure T has funded a large portion of these controllers. These nodes are currently being installed at the existing retrofitted sites listed in Table 1 as well as new City facility projects as they come online. There are roughly 1,100 exterior fixtures at new City facilities (i.e., the Emergency Operation Center, Fire Training Center, Municipal Water office buildings, new parks, and fire stations), and staff anticipates purchasing the remaining controllers as sites are completed and as funding is included in project budgets.
(c) LED Streetlight Conversion Projects – The majority of the streetlights have been successfully converted either by City crews or PG&E’s “Turnkey Conversion” project. There are roughly 3,000 lights remaining to be converted, which are unique ornamental, or post-top lights, primarily in the downtown neighborhoods and business districts.
With the completion of the PG&E streetlight inventory audit in July 2021, there is also a billing records review underway of over 27,000 streetlight records.
The billing records are reviewed as a joint effort with PG&E and City staff.
These efforts are anticipated to be confirmed by PG&E in fall of 2025, and it is likely to result in a decrease in the City’s streetlight inventory.
HONORABLE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL
September 8, 2025
Subject: Status Report on the 2018 Ballot Measure T – The Disaster Preparedness, Public Safety, and Infrastructure General Obligation Bond
A total of $2.4 million of the funding from the LED Streetlight Conversion project was reallocated as part of the 2024-2025 Adopted Budget to fund the completion of the LED conversion of the City-owned facility lighting. The total funding remaining within the LED Streetlight Conversion project is $5.3 million and will be utilized to convert the ornamental lights as the bulbs burn out. In total approximately 1,000 ornamental lights have been previously converted and since the last Measure T status update memo, the City crews converting the LED lights have been redirected to address copper wire theft and vandalism that became a high priority issue in 2024 with over 2,000 streetlights impacted. In addition, staff will continue to perform investigations to determine how many streetlight poles require ground wire within the system. Once those locations are determined, the work will fall into the deferred maintenance infrastructure backlog and funding will need to be identified.
5) Clean Water and Green Stormwater Infrastructure Projects – The Measure T program has dedicated $25 million for this category of projects. Each of the projects is being developed in conjunction with the Green Stormwater Infrastructure Plan that was approved by the City Council on September 10, 2019. A summary of current activities is below.
(a) River Oaks Regional Stormwater Capture Project – This project was awarded on June 13, 2023, to Andrew M. Jordan Inc., dba A & B Construction, in the amount of $10,999,618. The project has been completed and the ribbon cutting ceremony occurred in April 2025.
(b) Kelley Regional Stormwater Capture Project – This project will construct a treatment basin on 5.64 acres located in Kelley Park along Coyote Creek and Roberts Avenue, collecting and treating stormwater runoff from approximately 80 acres of the surrounding neighborhood. The project offers a high degree of water quality benefit addressing pollutant reduction, and trash reduction, while also expanding usable green space for the public. Staff began design in May 2024 and anticipates completion in fall 2025.
(c) Venetian Terrace Regional Stormwater Capture Project – Staff developed a feasibility study that identified five new regional stormwater capture projects. From these five sites, the Venetian Terrace Regional Stormwater Capture Project was prioritized to move forward. This project is located on an approximately 0.4-acre site on Rinconada Drive near Almaden Expressway and Curtner Avenue in Council District 9. The project involves installing a stormwater bioretention to treat stormwater runoff from the surrounding area.
The project is currently planned to feature park amenities for residential use.
This project is currently in design and is anticipated to start construction summer of 2026.
HONORABLE MAYOR AND CITY COUNCIL
September 8, 2025
Subject: Status Report on the 2018 Ballot Measure T – The Disaster Preparedness, Public Safety, and Infrastructure General Obligation Bond
Staff anticipates prioritizing one or two additional projects to proceed forward with using Measure T funding. Staff utilized approximately $12 million of Measure T funds for the River Oaks Regional Stormwater Capture Project and anticipates utilizing approximately $5 million for the Kelley Regional Stormwater Capture Project location and approximately $3 million for Venetian Terrace Regional Stormwater Capture Project. The program is expected to have approximately $2.5 million remaining, which will be reserved for the projects outlined above.
Staff will report back to City Council at a later date to propose a smaller regional project if any additional funding remains.
6) Storm Drain Improvement Projects for the Charcot Area – The Storm Drain Improvement Projects for the Charcot area will provide flood protection in the area east of Zanker Road between East Trimble Road and East Brokaw Road.
Originally envisioned as a new storm pump station at Charcot Avenue and Hartog Drive, this project was re-scoped to construct a new and less costly storm drain system that connects to the existing Rincon Pump Station II, which outfalls to the Guadalupe River. This revised project approach provides similar levels of flood protection while saving the City significant costs for building, operating, and maintaining a new pump station. The project will be constructed under two packages, due to its size and complexity. Package one will install approximately 4,200 linear feet of a combination of 54-inch fiberglass-reinforced concrete pipe and 72-inch to 96-inch diameter storm pipe along Charcot Avenue and Bering Drive. Package two will be designed to install approximately 3,100 feet of 60-inch to 96-inch diameter storm pipe along East Brokaw Road and Rodgers Avenue.
Package one alleviates approximately 60% of flooding in the area and package two will increase that by 20% by redirecting flow to the Rincon II Pump Station.
Package one was awarded to JMB Construction, Inc on June 18, 2024, in the amount of $18,180,425. This project began construction January 2025 and is anticipated to be complete the end of calendar year 2025. The delayed start of construction was due to material lead times. This project will be approximately 75% complete for the 2025 wet season. City staff will monitor the need for a temporary pump station at Charcot Ave and Hartog Drive to alleviate any potential flooding until the project is complete.
Package one will use all the available Measure T budget for this project. There is not sufficient funding available for the construction of Package two. Staff will complete package two design in December 2025 and construction will be on hold until funding is identified.
7) Environmental and Flood Protection Projects – On November 6, 2019, City Council approved the purchase of approximately 672 acres of real property in Coyote Valley.

8) Community Center/Emergency Shelters – The City Emergency Operations Plan includes the coordination of mass care and sheltering facilities. These facilities will be retrofitted to provide basic human needs, including food, water, shelter, and security. While the operation of an emergency shelter is considered an emergency protective measure under the Stafford Act, facilities identified for such a purpose are required to meet basic facility standards. These standards include per capita allowances for space, feeding, and personal hygiene.
The Priority 1 project, which includes the Roosevelt, Mayfair, Bascom and Seven Trees Community Centers, and the Priority 3 project, which includes the Berryessa, Almaden, and Evergreen Community Centers, are completed and the projects were accepted in March 2025. These facilities now meet the basic standards of an emergency shelter.
The Priority 2 project, which includes Camden Community Center, was awarded on June 18, 2024, to the lowest responsive bidder, City Building Inc., in the amount of $4,599,178. The project began construction in October 2024 and reached substantial completion and Beneficial Use at the end of August 2025.
Staff have allocated the remaining funding from this program to cover the additional electrical work at the Priority 1 and Priority 3 community center facilities. The scope of work consists of rewiring the fire alarm, telecom, and security systems to the emergency panels to ensure sites utilize a single temporary generator rather than multiple units. This project is currently in design and is anticipated to start construction summer of 2026 with final completion spring of 2027.
9) Public Art – The public art budget for each capital program is shown in Table 2 and included in the 2025-2027 Adopted Biennial Capital Budget and the 2026- 2030 Adopted Capital Improvement Program. The allocation for public art may be refined as the scopes for the projects are completed. The first public art project completed was an exterior ceramic mural and interior window treatment for Fire Station 37 by artist Sam Tubiolo. A major, flatscape sculptural artwork on the exterior of the Fire Department Training Center/Emergency Operations Center has also been completed by Bay Area artist Johanna Poethig, as well as the public art project for the interior of the building which is the permanent display of 31 original artworks created by local artists. Bay Area artist Gordon Huether’s site specific artwork for the Police Department’s Memorial to San Jose’s fallen Officers was completed in November of 2023. A memorial mural at the Mayfair Community Center has been completed by local artist Jessica Sabogal.
Additional public art projects are in the planning phase for Fire Stations 8, 32, and 36 as well as mural projects at parks and community center facilities.

Total $ 2,550,000
EVALUATION AND FOLLOW-UP
Staff will provide City Council with the next bi-annual program update in spring of 2026.
COST SUMMARY/IMPLICATIONS
As the Measure T program evolves, project budgets are recommended for modification, as appropriate, as they proceed through site selection, design, and construction.
Attachment E – 2026-2030 Adopted Capital Improvement Program (CIP) – The 2026- 2030 Adopted Capital Improvement Program provides funding of $190.0 million, of which $142.1 million is allocated in FY 2025-2026 and $42.1 million in FY 2026-2027.
The full amount of $650 million in Measure T bonds have been issued ($239.9 million in 2019, $200.5 million in 2021 and $209.6 million in 2025).
Attachment F – Measure T Expenditures shows the actual year-to-date Measure T expenditures through June 2025. As previously discussed, the Program Reserve for Public Safety may not be sufficient to complete the remaining public safety projects.
Staff will need to prioritize the remaining public safety projects and identify program savings or identify other funding opportunities such as grants.
As noted in the 2026-2030 Five-Year Forecast and Revenue Projections, several of the Measure T projects will incur significant operating and maintenance costs in the future, including the new fire stations, the Police Training Center and corresponding activation of the South San José Police Substation, and the 9-1-1 Call Center Renovation. This would also necessitate adding staff in the Fire, Police, and Public Works Departments to support the additional facilities and expansions. Preliminary estimates in the forecast for the operating and maintenance costs for the Measure T projects coming online during the next five years and the activation of the Substation range from approximately $13 million in 2026-2027 to $28 million in 2029-2030 when the majority of the Measure T projects will be completed. Note that in the 2025-2026 Adopted Operating Budget, the full activation of Fire Station 32 and the subsequent activation of the South San José Substation previously anticipated in 2026-2027 after the Police Training Center came

online were deferred to resolve the General Fund shortfall this fiscal year and to partially resolve the shortfall in 2026-2027. The full activation of these two facilities will be re- evaluated in future budget cycles.
Projects will be brought forward for City Council certification prior to awarding a contract for construction or recommended for certification as part of the Proposed Capital Improvement Program process. In March 2008, the City Council approved Budget Principle #8 that stated capital improvement projects “shall not proceed for projects with annual operating and maintenance costs exceeding $100,000 in the General Fund without City Council certification that funding will be made available in the applicable year of the cost impact.” Annual costs for other Measure T projects, such as the upgrades at the Police Headquarters, will be brought forward as part of future budget processes once their scopes have been refined.
Aside from the operating and maintenance costs, future funding is required to outfit the new facilities with the necessary furnishings, fixtures, and equipment – including new fire apparatus – that are not eligible to be paid with Measure T general obligation bonds.
Based on very preliminary information, the furnishings, fixtures, and equipment that remain unfunded at this time are close to $9.0 million at Fire Stations 32 and 36 and the Police Training Facility and Academy, and funding would need to be identified within the next five years. It is anticipated that refinements of these estimates, as well as determining funding for furnishings, fixtures, and equipment, will be completed prior to bringing them forward for consideration by the City Council in any given year.
