Operating Budget Wastewater Collections
Sewer Fund Utilities
With ongoing system impacts associated with climate change, and as ratepayers continue to reduce water consumption, lower wastewater collection system flows and increased root intrusion into system sewer laterals present challenges such as blockages and potential sewer overflows. Staff has implemented a novel artificial intelligence-based software pilot designed to review inspection and maintenance records to provide refined maintenance and capital improvement project recommendations. Staff is also pursuing research partnerships to explore decentralized wastewater treatment solutions that may help reduce operating expenses at the WRRF, and reduce blockages, odors, and corrosion in the collection system.
During the January 2023 storms, the Calle Joaquin Lift Station flooded, and experience a power outage.
While the damage was minimized to redundant equipment, staff were strained from the event which required traffic control, temporary bypass and power provisions.

Opportunities and Challenges
Future challenges include the implementation of the State’s revised Municipal Stormwater General permit anticipated to include significant additional requirements and changes. The new permit is expected to be released in 2023. Additional administration, permitting, and inspections will be required to meet the current and future requirements of the stormwater program for construction and municipal activities along with industrial and commercial facilities. The City will modify documentation and workflowsto meet the current requirements and future changes.
Environmental Programs has implemented a facility management software program to transition from its paper-based tracking system to better track permitted industries and required inspections in its Pretreatment program. For the Stormwater program, the implementation of software modules for commercial/industrial inspections, post-construction, structural BMPs, and illicit discharge is ongoing.
The program will be increasing outreach relating to an expanded fats oils and grease (FOG) municipal code, which aims to reduce blockages in the wastewater collection system resulting from improperly sized or maintained FOG collection equipment in commercial kitchens. This FOG, which should be collected and not deposited into the City maintained sewer system, can result in blockages and sewer overflows.

Opportunities and Challenges
The Water Resource Recovery Facility (WRRF) is nearing the completion of facility-wide construction. In the years to come, the facility will be primarily focused on meeting new regulatory requirements and capitalizing on new opportunities provided by the upgrade. To achieve this, the WRRF staff will be dedicated to developing various software platforms that will be essential for the efficient and effective operation of the facility. Regulatory compliance will involve working closely with organizations such as the Air Pollution Control District, the State Water Resources Control Board, and the Division of Drinking Water.
The WRRF is committed to addressing climate change and fiscal responsibility by leveraging new treatment processes that produce additional biogas which can be converted into electricity to offset operating costs and plans to build a second cogeneration system in 2023-24. Staff will also continue to research emerging technologies that can recover additional resources such as commercial-grade fertilizers from biosolids.
Diversity, equity, and inclusion are also top priorities for the WRRF program. As part of its efforts to promote diversity, the facility will maintain its internship program, which offers interested individuals the opportunity to gain the requisite 1800 hours of Operator-in-Training hours before obtaining Operator Certification.
To support the City’s housing goals, staff will maintain the increased treatment capacity of the facility to meet and be prepared for additional flows and loading projected in the City’s General Plan. By increasing efficiencies, the facility will be better able to allocate resources to support its long-term goals and meet the needs of the community.
Due to the January 2023 storms, the WRRF experienced increased significant increases in flows into the plant. This was a result of the heavy rainfall which indirectly entered an aging private and public wastewater collection system, and through manholes in flooded streets.

Reservoir Operations
Program Description
The Whale Rock Commission is a joint powers authority with five voting members that represent two state agencies and the City of San Luis Obispo. This commission was formed to build the Whale Rock Reservoir and sets policy for its operation. The City of San Luis Obispo (City), California Men’s Colony (CMC), and California Polytechnic State University (Cal Poly) are the actual water users, sharing the costs and benefits of the reservoir in proportion to their original investment, with the City at 55%, Cal Poly at 34%, and CMC at 11%. The reservoir operations program provides for raw water storage in a 38,967-acre-foot reservoir and raw water delivery through 18 miles of pipeline and two pump stations. The program goal is safe dam operation and maintenance, and a reliable, easily treatable supply of raw water for the participating agencies. The Reservoir Operations budget is inclusive of all costs related to operation of Whale Rock, not just the City’s proportional share. The City’s proportional share of Whale Rock expenditures is collected through the Source of Supply budget.
Core Services & Objectives
Collect, store, and pump raw water to member agencies in a reliable, cost-effective manner. Protect the dam from vandalism and contamination through effective surveillance. Increase awareness of Whale Rock Reservoir as a community asset. Promote public use of fishing, biking, and hiking trails. Identify additional recreational activities that do not negatively impact water quality.

Opportunities and Challenges
During the next budget cycle, staff at Whale Rock Reservoir have several capital projects that will occupy their time. During this time, the team will go out to bid for construction on the spillway drain repairs project that was required by the Division of Safety of Dams (DSOD). This project will ensure that the spillway underdrain system is fully operational, protecting the structural integrity of the earthen dam and spillway. Additionally, the team will conduct another capital project to repave the existing road that travels from the Whale Rock office up to the face of the dam. This paving project will ensure that staff and contractors have safe and continuous access to the face of the dam, intake structure, and spillway.
Much like what has been experienced in the Water and Sewer funds, challenges for the Whale Rock fund include escalating capital improvement delivery costs and rapidly increasing electricity costs for operation of the Whale Rock pump stations. Additionally, winter rainfall has resulted in minor landslides within public access areas around the lake and one slide which exposed a small section of the Whale Rock transmission pipeline. Repair work for these slide areas will largely be conducted by staff and is expected to be accommodated utilizing existing available operating budget.

MOBILITY SERVICES DIVISION
In 2019, the City embarked on a multi-phased reorganization to achieve an organizational structure to best position the City to efficiently meet the needs of its community in the future; and allow for both effective and efficient governance and operational innovation. The Community Services Group (CSG) continues to focus on the coordination of four departments – Community Development, Parks and Recreation, Public Works, and Utilities - under one working umbrella for continued efficiencies and innovation.
In an effort to continue focusing on staffing structures that provide opportunities for efficiency and effectiveness, the Public Works Department has combined programs into a new Mobility Services Division comprised of Bicycle and Pedestrian services (Active Transportation), Parking Services, and Transit Services. Transit and Parking Services are supported by rates and fees and function as enterprise funds while Active Transportation as a program consists of a general fund position of the Active Transportation Manager.
In establishing a Mobility Services Division, the new organizational structure will address urgent needs by enhancing internal services and collaboration, leverage available resources, address current workload needs, and enhance customer service experiences. To achieve these improvements, a reorganization of the programs of Parking, Transit, and Active Transportation allows the Public Works Department (specifically the Department Head) to have a more focused level of direct reports while providing program managers a Deputy Director to oversee their programs.
A Mobility Services Division will further the organizational effectiveness of the Transit, Parking, and Active Transpiration functions under one unified umbrella. The focus of the Mobility Services Division would be on how community members choose to get from place to place, whether that be work, school, leisure activities, visiting downtown, or weekly tasks such as grocery shopping.

Transit Fund
The Service of Public Transit
SLO Transit is the local fixed-route public
transit operation for the City of San Luis
Obispo. SLO Transit operates 14 vehicles at
peak period, along eight routes within the 23
square miles of the City limits of San Luis
Obispo and California Polytechnic State
University campus. Services operate 363 days
a year. On average, one million rides were
provided annually, pre pandemic. Ridership
demographics reflect a broad cross section of
the community, seniors, persons with
disabilities, Indigent, K-12 and University
Students, Commuters and Visitors. Trips are
routinely taken to access educational, medical, employment, commercial and social opportunities throughout the service area. Transit services play a vital role, not only as a “safety net” for the public transportation dependent population, but also addresses climate change issues associated with greenhouse gases.
2023-25 Financial Plan
Key Assumptions
The Transit Enterprise fund closes out the 2023-25 Financial Plan with a balanced budget. At the end of the budget cycle, the undesignated fund balance is projected to be approximately $10.8 Million. These funds are necessary as part of a fiscally prudent operating reserve equivalent to 20% of its operating budget to help weather any volatility in revenues. Amounts in excess of the 20% reserve will be used as local “matching” funds or used for transit capital improvement plan projects that do not yet have an identified federal or state assistance grant.
When preparing the budget, the Transit Program analyzes past funding sources (federal, state, and contractual agreement with Cal Poly) and ridership trends to forecast revenues. Transit service based on costs arethen matched to revenue forecasts. Generally, bus replacement schedules are based on federally approved “useful-life” criteria and best-case scenarios for aging vehicles. In addition, the California Air Resource Board is mandating that all public transportation fleets transition to zero emission buses by 2040. Vehicle replacement depends on the availability of capital funds from discretionary grants from the state or federal government. With the award from the Federal Transit Administration of American Rescue Plan-Addition Assistance (ARPA-AA), the City can use ARPA-AA fund for operations and use its federal formula funds for bus replacements and compliance with the State’s zero emission bus mandate. The budget prepared for this two-year financial plan follows a “zero based budgeting” approach, considering each line item and its future needs anew.
As transit agencies are experiencing around the nation in the current post pandemic environment, the Financial Plan Page 310
Transit Fund
City’s transit program is in the process of restoring service to pre-pandemic level and addressing bus operator shortages. The preparation of the Short-Range Transit Plan and the Transit Innovation Plan are document that will assist the City to restore transit services. The City’s use of ARPA-AA funds will address bus operator shortages by providing sign-on bonuses and other incentives to attract new bus operators.
Historical methodologies used to determine the immediate and forecasted health of the Transit Enterprise fund have significantly changed. The Transit Program has evaluated the possible long-term impacts of the pandemic, compiled available data and performed an analysis of past trends to create a conservative and balanced budget forecast.
At this time, revenues are projected to sufficiently keep pace with escalating costs including some enhancement of service delivery. However, any significant changes, such as the expansion of the transit program, will require additional funding sources. During the second year of this Financial Plan, the Transit program will issue a Request for Proposals to obtain a vendor for Transit Operations & Maintenance.
These costs are assumed to be similar to the existing contract’s cost.
Fund Revenues
Federal funding assistance is provided to SLO Transit in the form of Federal Transit Administration (FTA) 5307 grant funds that can be used for transit service operating and capital expenses. These Federal resources are available to urbanized areas, with a population of 50,000 or more. The SLO Urbanized area includes populations of Cal Poly and adjacent county areas to reach the 50,000 population criteria. The federal share for the funding of any one of these activities is not to exceed 50 percent of operating expenses or 80 percent of capital expenses of the net project cost. Federal funds account for approximately 40% of the total operating budget and are projected to continue to grow proportionately during the next two-year Financial Plan period and five-year outlook. However, unforeseen changes in federal policy can significantly affect transit funding projections.
The Federal Government recently passed the American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) which will provide an additional funding to the City of San Luis Obispo transit program. ARPA has formula and discretionary components. The City received $898K of formula funds which will be used for the City’s Electric Vehicle Charging Infrastructure project at the bus yard. The City received $12.3M of discretionary funds for operating assistance. The discretionary ARPA will fund 100% of net operating cost and incentives that will attract new bus drivers to the City bus service.
State funding assistance is provided to SLO Transit in the form of the State’s Transportation Development Act (TDA) funding. TDA is comprised of two sources of funding for transportation programs. The first is the Local Transportation Fund (LTF) which is derived from ¼ cent retail sales taxes, the second is State Transportation Assistance (STA) which is derived from the statewide sales tax on diesel fuel. Both funds are distributed to the regions by the State. San Luis Obispo Council of Governments (SLOCOG) then allocates this amount regionally to each of the seven cities, the County of San Luis Obispo, and the Consolidated Transportation Services Agency for the San Luis Obispo region (i.e., RTA). LTF funds are apportioned according to population for: public transit, street/road improvements and bikeway/pedestrian facilities. STA funds are formula-based and used for public transit purposes.
Financial Plan Page 311
Transit Fund
TDA funds account for 26% of the total revenue budget for SLO Transit. Based on the 2023 TDA apportionment, the City will realize an increase of 27% in TDA distribution from the prior year. This additional TDA funding will help offset the cost of services provided.
State policy requires that annual farebox revenue equal no less than 20% of the total operating budget.
Historically, the Transit Fund has had year-end operating savings that move the ratio above the 20% minimum. However, the pandemic has caused significant disruption to ridership, causing a noticeable decrease in farebox revenue. While the State has enacted legislature to forgo the 20% farebox recovery requirements for the time being, due to the pandemic, the Short-Range Transit Plan and the Transit Innovation Plan will address strategies to restore service to pre-pandemic levels.
Local revenue, from cash paid fares, pass sales and Cal Poly uses (an agreement with Cal Poly providing a Transit pass for students), amounts to 20% of the total Transit Fund operating budget. Local revenue from cash fares will likely continue to be impacted from the long-term effects of the pandemic and subsequent lower ridership. Provided the unknowns of when ridership will return to its previously numbers, there remains a need to consider the possibility of a fare increases. Staff will continue to monitor the situation and make recommendations accordingly.

Cal Poly plays a considerable role in the generation of local farebox and the overall health of the Transit Fund. The last four-year agreement expired June 30th, 2016. Staff has secured a two year amendment to develop a new long-term agreement that will expire on June 30, 2024. For this budget cycle, staff has used contract amounts from the amendment.

Expenditures for the Transit program fall into five main categories: Purchased Transportation, Fuel and Maintenance, Overhead/Administration, Cost Allocation and, Capital Improvements.
Purchased Transportation. On July 1, 2016, the City entered into a four-year agreement with First Transit Inc. for a Transit Operations and Maintenance contract. The contract does allow for up to three one-year extensions and service cost incrementally increases each year by approximately 3%. The cost projections in the fund forecast project this as well as changes in vehicle operating hours which is the basis for reimbursement of services provided.
On July 1, 2019, the City entered the fourth year of the contract. On March 3, 2020 the City Council exercised the first of three extensions. On May 12, 2021, the City Council exercised the second of three extensions. On May 3, 2022, the City Council extended the contract for another two years. Staff will seek another amendment, with Council Approval, to add an additional year to the contract to accommodate recruitment and on-boarding of the Mobility Services Business Manager (Transit Manager) position. All amendments to date and proposed, comply with FTA procurement guidelines. Thereafter, the Transit program will conduct a Request for Proposal to secure a new long-term contract.
Fuel and Maintenance costs historically had been volatile and difficult to predict. Fuel costs have also seen a recent return to high prices. While the program generally accounts for fluctuations in fuel prices, any excessively prolonged fuel costs may have negative impacts on the transit budget. While the introduction of two electric buses in 2023 are anticipated to help reduce the Transit program’s fuel costs, the offset of energy costs is still unknown. Therefore, staff has maintained the “fueling” line item consistent until the impacts of electrification of the fleet are known.
Many of the current diesel fleet are approaching the end of their FTA defined “useful-life.” The aging fleet therefore requires more maintenance and upkeep. The introduction of two electric buses in 2023 are anticipated to help reduce the Transit program’s maintenance budget only slightly. Six additional electric buses are starting the procurement process and once received are anticipated to further reduce maintenance costs.

Overhead and Administration is the program’s third biggest costs and accounts for the salary and benefits of the three fulltime transit employees, production and print of transit materials and guides, nonPurchased Transportation related contracts with various vendors, technology procurements and/or service agreements, auditing and accounting services, advertisement and public engagement programs, association fees, training and office supplies and other program related materials. These costs have been maintained relatively flat.
General Government expenses reimburse the General Fund for the support and expenses incurred in managing Transit related programs and projects by non-transit City Departments. The Cost Allocation Plan, which also affects the performance of farebox ratio, is considered a Central Service Cost Allocation plan by the Federal Transit Administration. This cost is approximately $400,000 in FY 2023-24 and FY 2024-25.

Capital Projects will be limited to those projects deemed essential and that can be funded largely from grants, keeping the local match required to a minimum.
Of those projects, the retirement and replacement of six 2008 diesel buses is essential as they have reached the end of their useful life and are starting to show their wear, resulting in service failures. Given the State’s enacted Innovated Clean Transit Fleet Rule and the City’s Climate Action Plan, these buses will be replaced with zero emission (electric) buses rather than with fossil fueled buses.
Given the considerable cost to purchase electric buses, the Transit program will greatly rely on the award of discretionary grants sources (i.e., ARPA-AA, VW Grant Funds, Low Carbon Fuel Standard Credits, etc.) 1 The cost to purchase transportation services or the cost of paying the City’s vendor to staff, operate and maintain the City’s transit services is expected to increase 40% from 2022-23 to 2023-24. This increased cost is assuming ridership demand in FY 2023-24 matches pre-pandemic levels and increased salary and benefits packages are successfully negotiated and implemented for SLO Transit drivers.

and no-cost infrastructure upgrade programs (i.e., PG&E E-fleet Ready Program) in order to complete this project.
The receipt of $12.3M of ARPA-AA funds will provide operating assistance for the next three years. As a result, the City’s apportionment of 5307 Federal funds can be used for bus replacement to comply the states zero emission mandate.

With the new Mobility Business Manager and completion of the Transit Innovation Plan and the regional Short Range Transit Plan, the City’s Transit Program can be reinvigorated. Both the plans together will evaluate new technologies and service models that will improve the overall mobility in the City. These new innovations may include micro-transit, limited express services, bus rapid transit, signal priority, and increase in bus frequencies. During the budget cycle, the two major challenges will be service restoration and ridership to pre-pandemic levels as well as acquiring zero emission buses to meet the State mandate.

Parking Fund
The Service of Parking
The Parking Services program implements the Access and Parking Management Plan and operates and maintains the City’s parking lots, on-street metered spaces, parking structures, residential permit parking districts and timed parking areas throughout the City with focus on the downtown area and residential neighborhoods. Parking, Active Transportation, Transit, Curb Management (access) and traffic circulation are interrelated, and the Parking Services program plays an important role in the successful operations of the City’s transportation systems. The Parking Services Program works with stakeholders including businesses, residents, other government agencies, and visitors to meet their diverse parking and access needs. The Program promotes services through direct education, community outreach, engineering, and enforcement efforts that strive to balance the high demands by providing a variety of transportation and parking options.
2023-25 Financial Plan
Key Assumptions
When preparing the budget, the Parking Services Program analyzed impacts from past financial standings, upcoming operational and capital needs, as well as projected future debt obligations to assess the financial position and overall health of the Parking Fund. The budget prepared for the two-year financial plan follows a “zero based budgeting” approach, considering each line item and its future needs anew.
Asset conditions, infrastructure age, and future parking capacity needs are driving factors in determining the Capital Improvement Plan projects and debt financing scenarios. The revenues needed to support future operations and projects is then evaluated based on current rates and fee structures, analysis of current parking asset usage, and effects on future revenue potential to provide recommendations.
Consistent with previously adopted policies the Parking Fund’s proposed revenue sources and fee structure assume a conservative annual growth rate over the entire projection period.
The Parking Fund continues to experience minor impacts from the pandemic while modernization efforts continue. End of year unreserved working capital is projected to be $2 million, in line with the FY 2021-22 Year End Report projections. The revenue enhancement strategies adopted by Council with the FY 2021- 22 Year End Report provide the Parking Fund the financial resources necessary to secure bond financing to the Cultural Arts District parking structure.
Financial Plan Page 319
Budget at a Glance
Parking Fund
Minimum working capital reserve should equal at least 20% of the total Operating Program expenditures according to the City's fiscal policy and fund specific risk assessments. Based upon this policy, the minimum reserve level should be approximately $921,000 for FY 2023-24 and will increase incrementally through the Fund’s outer year projections as both expenses and revenues increase.
As an Enterprise fund, Parking can build unreserved working capital in preparation for larger infrastructure maintenance and replacement needs and smooth rates to accomplish capital investments. Revenue from the past fiscal year is anticipated to match initial projections. The Fund plans to use remaining working capital to self-finance the approximately $6.9 million for the Phase 1 costs of the Cultural Arts District parking structure and may opt to contribute additional capital towards reducing the debt obligation for Phase 2 of construction costs.
Fund Revenues
As an enterprise fund, the Parking Services Program finances its operations through rates and fees charged for parking services, property lease income, and one-time incomes such as Parking In-Lieu fee payments.
According to City Fiscal Policies, rates must be sufficient to cover operations, capital asset improvements and maintenance, debt obligations, and to maintain appropriate reserve levels to keep the fund healthy and prepared for unforeseen and long-term funding needs.
The revenues needed to support future operations and projects of the Parking Fund has been evaluated based on current approved rates and fee structures, analysis of current parking asset uses, and effects on future revenue potential to provide rate adjustment recommendations. Consistent with previously adopted policies and considering impacts associated with the Cultural Arts District parking structure, the Parking Fund still assumes a conservative annual growth rate over the entire long-term forecast period.

Capital Improvement Plan (CIP) Projects
The Five-Year Forecast continues reinvestments in the City’s parking assets with annual funding for the rehabilitation of the three parking structures to extend their useful lives as outlined in the Condition Assessment and Management Plan (CAMP). The proposed CIP budget, as part of the 2023-25 Financial Plan, has continued funding for the CAMP report implementation by earmarking $900,000 in FY 2023-24, $700,000 in FY 2024-25 and $1,000,000 in FY 2025-26 and beyond for structural repairs, waterproofing and deck sealing maintenances. This work is imperative to guaranteeing the Fund is properly maintaining its resources and is required to secure a loan for the Cultural Arts District parking structure. Project budget estimates in the capital plan forecast include inflationary adjustments assuming a moderate increase in material costs over time. The Fund continues to make infrastructure improvements with the continued addition of multi-space pay-stations which expands sidewalk mobility and the implementation of mobile application and gateless parking operations at the structures. 6 Increase due to one-time SOBC for a Parking Rate Study and because of a new security agreement. 7 Decrease due to one-time cost noted above.
8 Decrease due to one-time costs in FY 2022-23 associated with Cultural Arts District Parking Structure project. 9 Increase due to increased debt service for Cultural Arts District Parking Structure. 10 Major variance is due to the one-time anticipated costs to construct the Cultural Arts District Parking Structure estimated at $47 million.

Parking Fund
All operational improvement elements have been proposed to help ensure the Fund is able to meet the completion goal for the Cultural Arts District parking structure. Currently estimates for the structure are at $54.9 million with initial work currently underway. A $6.9 million contribution from working capital for phase 1 that will occur in FYs 2022-23 and FY 2023-24 and $47.5 million from bond financing for phase 2 of construction that will begin in FY 2023-24. The construction phase is estimated to take 18-24 months with the structure opening for operation during the FY 2025-26 period.

Table B-54: Parking Fund Detail and Debt Retirement
The Parking Fund currently has two debt service obligations; one for the construction of the Marsh Street parking structure expansion that was built in 2002 and one for the construction of the 919 Palm Street parking structure that was built in 2006. The loan for the Marsh Street parking structure expansion is set to retire in FY 2031-32 while the loan for the 919 Palm Street parking structure will not be retired until FY 2038-39. The Fund will begin construction on its fourth parking structure in FY 2022-2023. In order to finance the construction of the Cultural Arts District Parking Structure, the parking fund plans to issue debt currently estimated at $47 million to be financed over a 30-year period. Staff anticipate receiving project bids in late June of 2023, which will provide more accurate project and debt costs.

Opportunities and Challenges
With the adoption of the Access and Parking Management Plan (APMP), Parking Services is positioned to reimagine parking throughout our community. The Plan provides the framework and policy direction to align the Program with more recently adopted goals and strategies outlined in other City plans. There will be a substantial work effort to develop new programs and policies that are outlined in APMP during this financial period. While some of the identified efforts are already underway, much of staff resources are currently committed to modernization efforts, which will impact the ability to develop new programs.
Parking Services continues work efforts updating our parking structures to newer technology will be a challenge as the current gate system is outdated. These updates will be costly however this will create opportunities to increase revenue as it will make the fee collection more reliable as the current system often has failures which directly impact the revenue stream. Adding an additional parking structure will increase overall revenue which creates opportunities to better provide services to the community but faces challenges with finding funding sources to build said structure. Reducing the street parking to accommodate the Parklet project will impact revenues which is a challenge. There are opportunities to review fee structures for metered parking which can support the overall operability of the parking fund.
Employee Summary Parking
Within the parking operations and maintenance division there are currently 15 full time positions and 7.6 supplemental positions. The position breakdowns are as follows; 9.6 full time positions within parking administration, eight (8) full time positions within parking structure operations, and five (5) full time parking enforcement officers. Additionally, the Parking Services funds a portion of the salary associated with an engineering position. One (1) full time position will be added to parking structure operations once the Cultural Arts District parking structure is in operation, but Council action is not required at this time.

The Tourism Business Improvement District will support the implementation of the Economic Resiliency, Cultural Vitality & Fiscal Sustainability (ERCV&FS) Major City Goal through the work of the TBID in positioning San Luis Obispo as an ideal destination to visit. In addition, the TBID will indirectly support both the Climate Action and DEI Major City Goals through the programs like Key for Trees and DEI conscious marketing initiatives.
Opportunities and Challenges
While tourism in San Luis Obispo has rebounded incredibly since the pandemic, our market is beginning to experience a softening in the business primarily during the midweek and shoulder season periods. The City must remain aware of this adjustment to the market, and the TBID will continue to shift marketing campaigns, programs and promotions to combat the impacts.

Boysen Ranch Conservation Fund Boysen Ranch
Boysen Ranch
Boysen Ranch consists of approximately 116 acres bounded by Los Osos Valley Road, Foothill Boulevard, and O’Connor Way. In 2005, the City accepted and currently holds a series of conservation easements that protect approximately 25 acres at the Boysen Ranch to mitigate for impacts to wetlands and waters by the Home Depot, Costco, and other Irish Hills Plaza development projects on Los Osos Valley Road.
Boysen Ranch is part of the City’s designated greenbelt. The funding was set up as an endowment to fund monitoring and maintenance of the restored wetland area.
Objectives
Continue to monitor and maintain the approximately 25 acres of conservation easement area as part of the City’s greenbelt.
Continue to monitor and maintain the wetland restoration areas. Monitor the property to ensure adherence to conservation easement terms and successful recruitment of wetland functions and values.

The City Council accepted a series of conservation easements that encumber a portion of Boysen Ranch on Foothill Boulevard where the required wetland restoration and enhancement activities took place. The funds can only be used for long-term maintenance and monitoring of the wetland restoration projects, as well as for the long-term administration of the conservation easements.

Public Safety Equipment Fund
Public Safety Equipment Fund
The Public Safety Equipment Fund (PSEF) was created with the 2019-21 Financial Plan to help budget and forecast the replacement of Public Safety equipment that has expired or become damaged. The Fund had received an original seed amount with the 2019-20 budget and, going forward, an annual allocation is made from the Local Revenue Measure and the General Fund. Budgeting annual amortized amounts set aside in this project account allows for crucial safety equipment to be replaced at scheduled intervals, which smooths out the annual contribution, reducing the impact on the budget at time of replacement.

1 Police
(additional
amount)
Additional funding is being requested for FY 23/24 and 24/25 for the Police Department's equipment replacement cycle. The increase reflects current costs (inflation) and the addition of items added to the replacement cycle. Some of the items added to the replacement cycle include suppressors (15-year life span), rifle rated vests (10-year life span), and accessories to complete firearm purchases. In previous years the department was able to utilize equipment from the DRMO program (military excess equipment) at little or no cost; unfortunately, equipment from this program is no longer available to the department.
$68,512 $60,323
2 Fire
(additional
amount)
The Fire Department is requesting additional funds for the Equipment Replacement Fund for FY24, FY25 and ongoing. The fund has been an invaluable tool to ensure equipment needs are met at the Fire Department. Funding is planned long term for large purchases by helping smooth costs over an extended period eliminating the sudden need to obtain huge sums to cover a purchase. The funds contributed annually are based on prices from 2018 when the fund was established. Since then, inflation has drastically increased prices on most items necessitating an increase in annual contributions. The total cost of the Breathing Apparatus sets being purchased this year have increased by $100,000. Turnouts have increased by 30%, a $75,000 increase.
The department is consciously attempting to stagger purchases to spread costs out, however, it is not enough to sustain the fund and continue the slow, planned purchases of necessary, lifesaving equipment without increasing the annual contribution.

Avila Ranch CFD No. 2017-1
Program Description
A Mello-Roos Community Facilities District was established and approved by City Council on October 24, 2017 (Resolution No 10844) pursuant to section 5.02.1 of the Avila Ranch Development Agreement. The CFD boundaries are identical to that of the Avila Ranch Development project and located at the northeast corner of Buckley Road and Vachell Lane and includes up to 720 dwelling units, 15,000 square feet of office and retail, 18 acres of parks, 53 acres of open space, riparian corridors and farmed agricultural land.
Objectives
• To create a land-secured funding mechanism to fund authorized services of the CFD such as Maintenance and lighting of parks/ streets/ open space, flood and storm protection, Police Protection, Fire protection, maintenance, and operation of any real property. • To create a land-secured funding mechanism to fund authorized infrastructure/ facilities of the CFD such as parks/ open space, water transmission/ distribution, acquisition/ improvement/ rehabilitation, or maintenance of real property.
• Levy Special Tax through annual property tax roll.
• Fund annual costs of Services and Facilities of the CFD.
Activities
FY 2022-23 was the first year in which there were revenue and expenses associated with the CFD and only included Special Tax Revenue and a small amount of authorized services related to annual CFD administration. As development of the project progresses, it is expected that the CFD budget will grow in order to fund services provided within the CFD boundaries.
Revenue
The sole source of revenue to this Fund is a Special Tax authorized under the Mello-Roos Community Facilities Act of 1982. Revenue derived from the Special Tax funds 1. authorized services costs which include CFD administration, maintenance, trash service, water service, sewer service, electrical service, street sweeping, contingency services, misc. materials/supplies, fire protection and police protection, and
2. development of infrastructure and facilities. FY 2022-23 was the first year in which the special tax was levied against taxable parcels of the CFD. Revenue from Special Tax Services and Special Tax Infrastructure/ Facilities will continue to be levied each year per the Rate, Method of Apportionment and Manner of Collection of Special Tax (RMA). Services Special Tax will be collected indefinitely while Infrastructure/Facilities Special Tax will only be collected through FY 2035-36.

Any excess funds available will be held to fund pay-as-you-go costs or held by the City to offset FY 2024-25 costs. Similar expenses are expected for FY 2024-25. Should the need for maintenance expenses arise during FY 2024-25, the Special Tax Revenue will need to be adjusted accordingly to fully meet obligations of this fund.
Revenue
The sole source of revenue to this Fund is a Special Tax authorized under the Mello-Roos Community Facilities Act of 1982. The CFD was authorized to begin collecting the Special Tax in Fiscal Year 2018-19.
Fiscal Year 2021-22 was the first year in which the special tax was levied against taxable parcels of the CFD. Revenue from Special Tax to cover debt service and other administrative expenses will continue to be levied each year per the Rate, Method of Apportionment and Manner of Collection of Special Tax (RMA).

Financial Plan Overview Debt
Debt
The City of San Luis Obispo is guided by its budget and fiscal policies when managing its debt. In accordance with the policy section “Capital Financing and Debt Management”:
• The City’s debt capacity cannot exceed 15% of
General Fund revenues.
• Its direct debt will not exceed 2% of assessed
valuations.
• No more than 60% of capital improvement outlays
will be funded from long-term debt.
Debt should only be incurred for one-time capital expenditures and not for on-going operations.
Borrowing for one-time capital expenditures allows for the cost of the project to be spread over the useful life of the asset and results in the cost being paid by future beneficiaries as well as current taxpayers.
Debt Management
The City’s bond issues are periodically reviewed by rating agencies to provide insight to the City’s financial outlook and hence its creditworthiness. The 2018 refinancing of three different lease revenue bonds was rated by Standard & Poor’s that gave the City an AA rating. The City’s Water Revenue Bonds were also rated by Standard & Poor’s; in April 2023 the rating was raised from AA- to AA while affirming a stable outlook.
• The City’s strong operating performance, a moderate longterm liability burden, strong revenue growth and solid expenditure flexibility offsetting a constrained revenue raising environment.
• The City’s gap closing capacity being superior given ample reserves and moderate revenue volatility.
• Budget management at times of recovery being very strong, leaving the City well prepared to manage the current period of economic stress.
• The City’s engagement in thorough and conservative longterm financial planning with a focus on maintaining structural budget balance.
• The City maintaining its capital assets with minimal debt reliance and proactive efforts to pay down its unfunded retirement liabilities above actuarially determined levels.
AAA
• Extremely strong capacity to meet financial
commitments. Highest rating.
AA
• Very strong capacity to meet financial
committments.
A
• Strong cpacity to meet financial commitments,
but somewhat susceptible to adverse economic
conditions and changes in circumstance.
BBB
• Adequate capacity to met financial
commitments, but more subject to adverse
economic conditions.
BB
• Less vulnerable in the near-term, but faces
major ongoiong uncertainties to adverse
business, financial, and economic conditions.
CCC
• Currently vulnerable and dependent on
favorable business, financial, and economic
conditions to meet financial committments
CC
• Highly vulnerable; default has not yet occured,
but it is expected to be a virtual certainty.
C
• Currently highly vulnerable to non-payment,
and ultimate recovery is expected to be lower
than that of higher rates obliations.

Capital Improvement Program 2023-25
Capital Improvement Plan (CIP)
Purpose of CIP
The CIP and its annual implementation of projects is one of the primary functions of local government.
The Capital Improvement Program (CIP) enables the City to plan, schedule, and finance capital projects to ensure cost effectiveness and conformance with established plans and policies. The City’s budget process guides the capital priorities through community input, Council goal setting, Local Revenue Measure priorities, and the biennially adopted Major City Goal work programs. The CIP and its annual implementation of projects is one of the primary functions of local government.
Through its adopted CIP, the City meets community needs by providing the infrastructure required for economic vitality, neighborhood wellness, housing, transportation, sustainability, active and passive recreation, public safety, cleanliness, and other basic amenities.
With each two-year Financial Plan, the City prepares five-year CIP program recommendations for Council consideration and approval. Even though only the first two years are funded within the Financial Plan, five-year planning is a best practice and is recommended to achieve objectives of the Capital Improvement Plan.
The City systematically plans, schedules, and finances capital projects to ensure cost-effectiveness and conformance with established policies. Comprehensive policies governing the development and management of the CIP are primarily set forth in the City’s fiscal policies. The City’s construction projects and equipment expenditures costing $25,000 or more are included in the Capital Improvement Plan.
Based on the Council determined goals, and balanced with the City’s financial circumstances, the recommended capital improvement projects total $183 million for the 2023-25 Financial Plan, and $465 million over the five-year plan. City staff will work to ensure that the community is well informed of various capital projects consistent with the Public Engagement and Noticing Manual with the framework of Inform, Consult, and Collaborate.
A Note on Unprecedented CIP Circumstances
As Council is aware, the City continues to navigate economic conditions which have proven challenging on resource availability for capital projects. Cost escalation and supply chain delays hasimpacted the City’s ability to deliver capital projects within budget and within estimated timelines. As such, staff, including those who support the CIP, continue to wear multiple hats. While the CIP budget has tripled due to the voters’ passage of Measure G20, the City’s local sales tax measure, the increased revenues have proven invaluable to support variable market conditions in recent years.
On top of that, the City is in the early stages of understanding the long-term impacts of the winter storms and rainfall which has had extreme impacts on the City’s infrastructure system. This includesstorm drains, creek protection, the water and wastewater systems, and roadways among other capital assets. What this means is that there is continued uncertainty, but alongside that is continued effort by staff to identify additional funds in the form of reimbursement to continue to meet the significant needs of our community in providing it vital and meaningful infrastructure projects.
Financial Plan Page 345
Capital Improvement Program 2023-25
Active and Ongoing Capital Projects
It is important to note that capital projects often span over multiple years and even across financial plans.
Staff continuously evaluate the CIP to determine which projects are best suited for activity depending on the resources available (people and funding) and in some instances the time of the year for construction activities. As the city adopts the 2023-25 Financial Plan, many active and ongoing capital projects remain which were identified and funded for activity during prior fiscal years.
In addition to cost estimates and project budgets, it is important to understand the on-going financial impacts the CIP has on the organization and city resources. While a capital project may be considered complete, there are often ongoing maintenance or operating costs associated with a given asset. This can be seen in the need for additional staff or resources to maintain a new park or enhanced street sweeping with a new roadway or greenway being added to the city’s transportation network. While many CIP’s create efficiencies, when preparing and implementing the capital plan, staff must be mindful of the longterm impacts and needs to maintain the City’s infrastructure.
Acknowledgements
A capital budget and planning document takes countless hours of teamwork, collaboration, and patience to produce. Special thanks to departments involved in developing the CIP as led by Public Works in partnership with Administration and IT, Community Development, Finance, Fire, Parks and Recreation, Police, and Utilities. Completing this budget could not have been accomplished without the skill, dedication, and professionalism of this team.
Special thanks are also due to the CIP Review Committee of Shelly Stanwyck, Greg Hermann, Matt Horn, Emily Jackson, Aaron Floyd, Greg Avakian, Michael Codron, Chief Scott, and Chief Tuggle. I am also grateful for the staff who worked on the material and analysis in preparing the CIP including Brian Nelson, Greg Cleary, Natalie Harnett, Miguel Barcenas, Luke Schwartz, Chris Read, and many others.

Capital Improvement Program 2023-25
Types of CIP Projects and Framework Used to Develop Recommendations To assist the City Manager in developing the recommended CIP for the 2023-25 Financial Plan, a designated CIP Review Committee comprised of the Assistant City Manager, Deputy City Manager, Finance Director, Police Chief, Utilities Director, Community Development Director, Parks and Recreation Director, and Public Works Director, among other staff, evaluated project requests across the City. Based on prior Council direction and public input regarding the importance of maintaining existing infrastructure, City staff positions all project requests in the following three categories. It is common in developing a CIP for a majority of the focus to be placed on Asset Replacement and Asset Maintenance, rather than on New Assets. It is critical for the City to continue to invest in repair or replacement of existing infrastructure that is attributed to the quality of life for residents.
Project Prioritization
Because the City’s infrastructure needs often exceed available funding, department staff must prioritize various projects taking into consideration timing, cost estimates, mandates, and useful life, among many other factors. With input from the CIP Review Committee and staff across the organization, the CIP addresses most urgent projects, while planning for future improvements.
The City Council adopted Resolution No. 11159 (2020 Series) which established a goal of community wide carbon neutrality by 2035, with municipal operations being carbon neutral by 2030. The CIP is a major factor in reaching these ambitious goals. As a result, staff consider project selection and timing through the lens of carbon neutrality when possible. This includes projects aimed at reducing energy consumption, reducing vehicle miles traveled (active transportation), incorporating bikes or electric vehicles into the city fleet, tree planting, and solid waste management.
Financial Plan Page 347
Capital Improvement Program 2023-25
Key Questions the CIP Committee Asks About Projects
In categorizing projects and recommending them for funding consideration, the CIP Review Committee engaged in a rigorous ranking and review framework to develop the proposed projects for both the General Fund, Enterprise Funds, and various special funds. In general, projects that maintain existing infrastructure are ranked ahead of asset replacement projects, and asset replacement projects are ranked ahead of building new assets. It is important to note that generally new assets are related to Major City Goals, community enhancements, or are critical infrastructure associated with development areas. This “ranking” however is a general guideline and is complemented by the following questions which were asked and applied equally to all projects as well.
In addition, staff identify needed projects based on factors including, but not limited to:
1. Public input through committees, community groups, community forums and/or budget hearings
2. Legal requirements or mandates
3. Policy direction from the City Council and Major City Goals
4. Best practices, asset useful life, or replacement schedules
5. Studies and assessments, and professional expertise
6. Citywide planning documents or studies; including the Active Transportation Plan, Pavement Management Plan, General Plan, Climate Action Plan, among many others.

Capital Project Delivery
As mentioned previously, the City’s capital budget has grown significantly because of the local sales tax measure and the potential for leveraging precious capital budget dollars further with historic federal government grants. While revenues have grown, city staff have also experienced major increases in project costs and budgets in recent years.
* Includes first full year of G-20 revenue and one-time ARPA allocation With this increase in available funds comes a significant growth in proposed General Fund projects, as well as significant Enterprise Fund capital projects as noted in the summaries below. To “deliver” these projects, and given the added burden of storm recovery activities, staff continue to analyze the resources required to deliver the projects over the two-year and the five-year time horizon. Staff will continue to work on opportunitiesto implement the Management Partners Report Recommendations and fine tuning of Public Works CIP Engineering’s organizational structure, job types, functions, and tools, training, and methods to align the City’s Capital Improvement Plan with resources available.
The flow chart below outlines the various phases of a given CIP project. While not all projects enter and exit each phase, this provides a general overview of the necessary efforts that lead from the identification of a project to completion.

CIP Project Categories
The City categorizes CIP projects into broad functional areas that represent the support for fundamental local government activities. Projects in support of these categories extend the life of existing City assets such as streets, bike and pedestrian pathways, parks and play equipment, bridges, water and sewer infrastructure, trees, open spaces and much more. In addition to maintenance of existing assets, there are some aged assets, such as buildings or city facilities, that may need replacement or substantial improvements. Less frequent but more significant is design and construction of new projects or new assets based on community and Council priorities that enhance the overall quality of life in the City.
Financial Plan Page 351
Capital Improvement Program 2023-25
The project revenues for the City and related expenditures are organized by asset replacement, asset maintenance, and new assets. These revenues and expenditures are made up by a wide variety of funds.
As noted, the LRM is one the most significant contributors to the City’s CIP, but there are numerous other financial resources that are brought to bear in funding capital projects.
Funds and Funding Sources
The section below provides an overview of the various funding sources and structures that support the capital improvement plan, including special funds, enterprise funds and more traditional government funds. Each fund or funding sources serves different purposes, while at times comes with limitations and restrictions for eligible uses or expenses.

Grants and Debt
The City’s CIP program, while largely comprised of funds arising from local revenues, service fees, and impact fees, also includes funding from grants and for larger projects includes debt issuance (such as the Cultural Arts District Parking Structure). The City typically receives grant funds from State or Federal agencies that either offset a burdensome cost for infrastructure or service needs, advance a positive environmental or ecological improvement, or stimulate the economy. Some grants the City receives are based upon regulation or a methodology, such as the City’s population. Discretionary grants are those grants where the City competes for limited funds to advance a specific project or a new way of doing business. Some of these discretionary grants are programmed into the City’s 2023-25 Financial Plan which is often required by the granting agencies. Grant activity across the City is primarily seen in the Transit program, as well as the improvement of the City’s transportation network.
The City typically will use a pay-as-you go approach, however, debt issuance may occur with costly projects that have a long-term useful life. Projects where debt financing is a likely approach include the Cultural Arts District Parking Structure and the Prado Road Interchange, which are outlined below. Staff consistently evaluate resource and funding capacity, keeping in mind the ability to debt finance projects as needed.

CIP Expenditures by Major City Goal
Staff look to the established Major City Goals in preparing the CIP. Although a large part of the CIP does not directly align with a specific Major City Goal (see Other category below), in many ways the CIP supports the overall core functions of local government and work toward enhancing the quality of life of residents and community members. Over the next two years, staff will continue learning more about what capital projects are responsive to the MCG to advance Diversity, Equity, Inclusion (DEI).
Note: 2023-24 amount for the Economic Resiliency, Cultural Vitality, and Fiscal Sustainability MCG accounts for the Cultural Arts District Parking Strucure funding.

The community and Council have placed strong emphasis on the City’s effort to implement the programs, policies and infrastructure projects identified in the adopted Active Transportation Plan (ATP), which includes a priority list of transportation network enhancements focused on improving safety and mobility for people walking and bicycling. While the primary focus of this Plan is on walking and bicycling, “active transportation” refers to all human-powered modes of transportation, from walking and bicycling, to scootering, skateboarding, traveling by wheelchair and using other rolling mobility devices. Over the next two years, staff will continue to deliver on the goals and objectives outlined in the ATP, as well as the Climate Action, Open Space, and Active Transportation Major City Goal, utilizing a variety of funding sources to leverage local funds. The table below outlines various ATP projects and respective funding sources that are programmed in the coming fiscal years.

CIP Expenditure by Project and Task
The tables below outline a complete list of all capital projects across all programs, departments, and funding sources. The tables present project budgets and/or cost estimates for the next five fiscal years.
Although this Financial Plan only addresses budget allocations for Fiscal Year 2023-25, it is important to understand the larger picture and future capital project investments into and beyond the five-year period.
The table is organized with the largest project budgets beginning in FY 2023-24, from top to bottom where the blue rows represent a project, and the white rows represent a given task or subproject within that project (if applicable).

Purpose and Need
Due to historical encroachment into the San Luis Obispo creek channel between Marsh Street and Madonna Road, the creek channel is unable to provide sufficient capacity for flood events. This results in frequent flood damage as flood waters rise out of the creek channel and flow down Higuera Street. This project would reduce the frequency of this flooding by widening the creek at multiple pinch points along the project area, installing flood bypass channels within City open space and directing flood waters towards the creek channel at Matthews Open Space.

Purpose and Need
Pavement maintenance is an ongoing need and provides increased roadway life and a smooth pavement surface. The City’s Pavement Management Plan (PMP), adopted in 1998, established nine pavement maintenance zones within the City, and a plan in which each of these areas received maintenance on an eight-year rotation. In 2009, the City Council approved a modified PMP that provided priority for arterial streets while maintaining the eight-year rotation for maintenance work on local streets. The City maintains a total of 134 miles of roadways. Identified projects are as follows:
2023 - Santa Barbara Ave, Monterey Street, California Blvd, La Loma Court, Palm Street, Morro Street 2024 - Areas 8 & 1 Local and Collector Streets, Johnson Avenue 2025 - Tank Farm, Orcutt Road
2026 – Areas 2 & 3 Local and Collector Streets

Purpose and Need
The City’s Water Resource Recovery Facility (WRRF) and Wastewater Collection’s maintenance shops are located near the intersection of Prado Road and Elks Lane. In 2017 the need to design and construct an overcrossing on Highway 101 was presented to Caltrans with anticipation of developing a work plan to complete environmental clearances, design, and construction. Since 2017, iterations of the overcrossing objectives and design requirements have required the footprint of the overcrossing to encroach into the sewer fund’s property. The encroachment will require demolition of the existing wastewater collection’s shop and re-routing of the Prado Road entrance. This project will look for opportunities to re-purpose existing building areas or develop new objectives for the design of a new maintenance shop. The project will be broken up into a study, design and environmental clearance, and construction phase. Additionally, the WRRF demolished the existing maintenance welding shop and storage facility to make room for the new digester and pumping facilities. The WRRF will need a maintenance shop with adequate storage and amenities to service the new facility in the next three years and eliminate the steel storage bins currently being used. This project will evaluate opportunities to merge the two maintenance shops under one footprint and review the section’s objectives to create efficiencies with one construction project to promote section efficiencies, enhance security to the WRRF, and improve circulation based on the intersection realignments proposed by the Highway 101 overcrossing project.

Purpose and Need
The City’s wastewater collection system includes approximately 140 miles of sewer mains. Some pipes are over 100 years old, and are undersized to handle the current flow rates. Maintenance needs increase dramatically as pipelines reach their flow capacities, or when they approach the end of their useful life. Pipelines in the public wastewater collection system are inspected using specialized video equipment that will prioritize periodic cleaning frequencies or recommend a complete replacement. Based on the assessment, this project is needed for the replacement of sewer mains dating back to 1955 that make up potions of the backbone system crossing Highway 101 and have shown high infiltration flows rates during major storm events.

Purpose and Need
Storage capacity for treated potable water is an essential function of a water distribution system to provide adequate flows and pressures throughout the community. In addition to water storage tanks at the Water Treatment Plant, there are nine water storage tanks located within the City’s distribution system, and a few have been in operation since the early 1940s. Maintenance of water storage facilities is necessary to prolong the useful life of these assets and ensures staff’s ability to operate the water system to State and Federal standards. In 2012, a consultant was hired to inspect and produce a report regarding the interior and exterior of the City’s water storage tanks. The report included recommendations, and preliminary cost estimates for future maintenance projects. Following the inspection of the tanks, staff worked with the consultant to assign a priority ranking for each future maintenance project. The proposed projects for funding include:
1) Wash Water Tank No. 1 is experiencing excessive corrosion on the inner roof area. To prevent the tank structure from deteriorating and to prolong the tank’s lifespan, new interior and exterior coatings are required and reconstruction of the roof’s structural members is needed.
2) Reservoir 2, the City’s largest treated potable water storage tank, needs a new floating cover and associated equipment. The existing floating cover has reached the end of its service life. Reservoir 2 is a concrete water storage tank. 3) Edna Tank, the City’s largest steel potable water storage tank, is experiencing corrosion on the interior surfaces and requires new interior and exterior coatings to prevent the corrosion from spreading into the structural members. Coating projects are preventative maintenance and will prolong the life span of the tank and reduce the likelihood of future costly component failures. This project will be grouped with other coating projects to capitalize on potential savings from a larger construction project.

Purpose and Need
The City’s wastewater collection system includes approximately 140 miles of sewer mains. Some pipes are over 100 years old and are undersized to handle the current flow rates. Maintenance needs increase dramatically as pipelines reach their flow capacities, or when they approach the end of their useful life. Pipelines in the public wastewater collection system are inspected using specialized video equipment that will prioritize periodic cleaning frequencies or recommend a complete replacement. Based on the assessment, this project is needed for the replacement of sewer mains dating back to 1948 that require high cleaning frequencies, have experienced structural failures due to root intrusions, and have shown high infiltration flows rates during major storm events.

Purpose and Need
Replacement of water distribution pipes, mainlines, and related infrastructure is an ongoing program to provide a reliable water distribution network including fire protection. The point repair project will address existing deficiencies, and the potential for near-term failure according to priority. The objective of the project is to explore opportunities to consolidate water distribution service areas (pressure zones) and construct new pipe interconnections between pressure zones to simplify operations, improve water reuse operations, reduce pumping needs, and eliminate pump stations or tanks that would otherwise require replacement. The project efforts may include engineering reports, updates to the computer hydraulic model, construction plans for point repairs, construction management services, tank re-coatings, pump maintenance, updates to construction water filling stations, materials for point repairs, grant applications, and field testing of water distribution infrastructure.

Purpose and Need
The City’s Water Treatment Plant was originally constructed in 1961. In 1995, a significant upgrade to the plant was completed to meet changing water quality requirements. In April of 2008, another major upgrade project was completed that replaced older equipment, added additional storage capacity for treated water, and enhanced treatment processes. The ongoing maintenance of the facilities and equipment at the Water Treatment Plant is necessary to prolong the useful life of the facilities and ensure staff’s ability to operate the plant and treat water to State and Federal standards. The proposed maintenance projects include maintenance to ozone system, chemical storage system, air compressor, package thickener, aluminum bulk tank replacement, lab analyzer replacement, polymer mixing unit rehabilitation, rehabilitation of pump station pressure sustaining valves, facility roof repairs, and the development of a Facility Infrastructure Renewal Strategy. The renewal strategy will allow plant staff to prioritize Water Treatment Plant related capital improvement projects for the next decade. An asset management plan will also be developed to track infrastructure performance and maintenance cycles.

Purpose and Need
The water transmission pipeline extending from the Water Treatment Plant to Santa Rosa Road is not constructed of standard material types or sizes and if a leak occurs, it would be difficult to repair without putting many residents out of water service, triggering boil water notices across the eastern side of the City. Installed in 1964 using concrete cylinder pipe (CCP) materials, the pipeline does not meet current seismic standards and is need for replacement within the next 5 years. The existing 27-inch CCP will be replaced with a new 30-inch seismic restrained ductile iron pipe for the distribution of treated water into the Foothill and Downtown services areas. The new alignment will follow Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)-recommended design guidelines for “lifeline services” providing reliable water resources during catastrophic events.

Purpose and Need
Silt carried by storm water settles at points in the creek where the storm water's velocity decreases. This reduction in velocity allows solids suspended in the water to settle out. As these deposits build up, the capacity of the creek decreases and risk of flooding of the surrounding areas increases. The regular removal of silt restores channel capacity and reduces risk of flooding.

Purpose and Need
The water transmission pipeline along Chorro Street from Highland to Meinecke is scheduled for replacement by the Water Master Plan. Installed in 1953 using concrete cylinder pipe (CCP) and cast-iron materials, the pipeline does not meet current seismic standards and is need for replacement within the next 5 years. The existing 18-inch CCP will be replaced with a new 24-inch seismic restrained ductile iron pipe for the distribution of treated water into the Foothill and Downtown services areas. The new alignment will follow Environmental Protection Agency (EPA)-recommended design guidelines for “lifeline services” providing reliable water resources during catastrophic events. This project will allow bypass pumping opportunities for future pipeline replacement projects and future interconnections between the two major pressure zones; High Pressure and the Downtown/Foothill Zone.

Purpose and Need
The City’s Water Resource Recovery Facility (WRRF) was originally constructed in 1941. In 1993, a significant upgrade to portions of the plant were completed to meet changing water quality requirements. In September of 2019, another major upgrade project known as Water Plus was initiated that will replace older equipment, provide additional treatment capacity, enhance disinfection with ultraviolet light to produce recycled water and reduce the use of disinfection chemicals. During construction, ongoing maintenance of existing facilities and equipment at the WRRF are necessary to prolong the useful life of the facilities and ensure staff’s ability to operate the plant and treat water to State and Federal standards until the upgrade is completed. The proposed asset replacement projects include servicing: screening washer-auger, influent storm pumps, screw press, primary scum pit, grit pumps, grit blowers, laboratory fans, security lights, chain link fence, and digester cleaning. Construction of these asset replacements will be coordinated with facility’s infrastructure renewal strategy and will allow plant staff to prioritize capital improvement projects for the next decade.

Purpose and Need
Replacement of water distribution pipes, mainlines, and related infrastructure is an ongoing program for reliable water distribution and fire protection. The City operates a complex potable water distribution system that is comprised of 15 distribution zones, nine potable water storage tanks, two reservoirs, five hydro‐pneumatic tanks, seven pump stations, 21 pressure reducing valves (PRVs) and over 180 miles of pipe with diameters ranging in size from four inches to 30 inches. This project will replace critical infrastructure that has reached the end of its useful life, experienced water main breaks, and is ranked as a high priority for replacement by the water distribution’s infrastructure renewal strategy. The objective of the project is to replace cast-iron pipe or failing materials with pipe meeting new standards by the American Water Works Association (AWWA) to provide resiliency in the distribution network against variations in pressure and flows.
