Agenda Number: 17 Section Name: CONSENT CALENDAR Account Number: 10-4661 File ID: 22-6214 TO: City Council
FROM: Drew Corbett, City Manager
PREPARED BY: Public Works Department
MEETING DATE: July 18, 2022
SUBJECT:
Local Roadway Safety Plan – Agreement
RECOMMENDATION:
Approve an agreement with Kittelson & Associates, Inc. for preparation of the San Mateo Local Roadway Safety Plan in the amount of $120,938; approve a contingency in the amount of $12,000; and authorize the Public Works Director to execute the agreement and amendments within the contingency in substantially the form presented.
BACKGROUND:
The California Transportation Commission allocated $18 million of State funds in 2019 and 2020 for the purpose of assisting local agencies in developing Local Roadway Safety Plans (LRSPs) based on a new statewide requirement for cities to have an LRSP or equivalent plan to be eligible to apply for federal Highway Safety Improvement Program (HSIP) funds.
LRSPs identify roadway safety emphasis areas, determine safety goals for reducing fatal and severe injury crashes, and identify, analyze, and prioritize safety improvements with the help of stakeholders representing the engineering, law enforcement, education, and emergency response personnel. The City was awarded a grant to develop an LRSP in the amount of $72,000 in grant funds that requires $8,000 in City matching funds for a total of $80,000.
Staff first brought the concept of utilizing collision data for project prioritization to City Council during fall 2020. After several presentations on the subject, City Council concurred with staff’s recommendation of preparing an LRSP as the formalized method to identify traffic safety issues and recommend roadway improvements. Staff anticipates that the improvements recommended in the LRSP will be implemented throughout the City in conjunction with previously completed Traffic Action Plans. As such, and due to its citywide scale, staff desires to include a robust public outreach component during the LRSP preparation. The additional budget needed for public outreach support is estimated at approximately $41,000, which will be funded from the Neighborhood Traffic Management project, which was created to fund Traffic Action Plan implementation.
On January 28, 2022, the Public Works Department issued a request for proposals (RFP) to select a qualified firm(s) to develop the LRSP. The City received proposals from five firms and evaluated the proposals based on each firm's understanding of the work involved, experience with similar work, quality of project team, and technical ability of key staff. Of the five firms, staff interviewed two firms for the project: Fehr & Peers and Kittelson & Associates, Inc. Following interviews with each proposed project team, staff found Kittelson & Associates, Inc. to be most qualified to complete the scope of work identified in the RFP. Staff recommends entering into an agreement with Kittelson & Associates, Inc.
BUDGET IMPACT:
There are sufficient funds for this agreement between the Caltrans LRSP grant and Neighborhood Traffic Management project, which will fund the additional outreach and local match to complete the Local Roadway Safety Plan. 314 of 615

ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION:
This Local Roadway Safety Plan is not a project subject to CEQA, because it is a government fiscal activity which does not involve any commitment to any specific project which may result in a potentially significant physical impact on the environment. (CEQA Guidelines Section 15378(b)(4).)

Scope of Services
TASK 1. DETAILED WORK PLAN AND STRATEGY
TASK 1 PURPOSE
Facilitate regular communication with the City of San Mateo project manager and staff so that the LRSP development remains on schedule and meets the needs and interests of the City.
Project Management
As project manager, Anusha Musunuru will use the following approaches to ensure project success:
Proactive Communication
Routine communication between Anusha and San Mateo’s project manager will confirm that we are meeting or exceeding needs in our approach and performance of the work.
Management of Team Members
Anusha will define a detailed work plan for the consultant team at the time the contractual scope of work with City of San Mateo is established. The detailed work plan will identify internal team milestones related to quality control milestones as well as individuals responsible for conducting the work, reviewing the work, and confirming comments are adequately addressed.
Managing Schedule
Actively managing the schedule is critical. Anusha, Matt, and Damian will work with task leads to identify and provide the resources necessary to adhere to the established schedule.
Controlling Allocation of Resources
Anusha will help ensure that the appropriate allocation of resources is spent on each task by first establishing clear expectations with the San Mateo project manager and the task leads about desired outcomes. Furthermore, Kittelson’s internal budget tracking tools enable project managers to identify budget status of any project or task at any time during the week or day and will be applied to help control allocation of resources.
Quality Deliverables
We deeply care about the services we provide. Damian Stefanakis (Principal -in-charge) will assist with quality control and assurance, as will our team’s dedicated senior advisor, Matt Braughton.

Task 1.1 Kick-off Meeting
Kittelson will prepare for and conduct a project kick-off meeting with City of San Mateo project manager and staff to confirm schedule, scope, project objectives, goals, and key interests, and identify near-term data or other information needed. Kittelson will also request and obtain relevant City safety policies, programs, partners, and additional documentation from the City to document existing safety efforts and progress. This information will be included in the LR SP as required.
Task 1.2 Monthly Progress Meetings, Progress Reports, and Invoices Kittelson’s project manager will conduct 30-minute monthly conference calls with the City.
Based on the agenda and any topics for resolution, specific invites for local agency participation or other partners will be extended prior to the call. The focus of these calls will be to provide an update regarding ongoing work, identify any potential issues that require resolutio n, and provide a recurring opportunity for the City project manager to provide our team with feedback to be sure we are meeting or exceeding expectations.
Based on the current conditions under the COVID-19 pandemic, we anticipate the kick-off meeting and all monthly progress meetings would be held virtually. If desired by the City and appropriate given the current local public health conditions, Kittelson may conduct the kickoff meeting in person at City offices.
Task 1 Deliverables
▪ Virtual kick-off meeting with City
▪ Final work plan
▪ Monthly virtual progress meetings, including meeting agendas and notes TASK 2. STAKEHOLDER AND COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT
TASK 2 PURPOSE
Establish a Project Development Team/Steering Committee comprised of multidisciplinary agency stakeholders and organizations and engage them throughout the process of developing the LRSP. Support City staff with preparing and presenting project -related materials for outreach and at public meetings.
Task 2.1 Project Development Team Meetings
Kittelson will work with City of San Mateo project manager and staff to identify potential safety partners to serve as part of the Project Development Team. We anticipate the roster for the PDT to include multidisciplinary partners which may include neighboring jurisdictions, Safe Routes to School program, disabled community, traffic safety advocacy groups, California Highway Patrol (CHP), Caltrans, San Mateo Police Department, and/or emergency services representatives. We also recommend including San Mateo school districts and representatives from San Mateo County Health to allow for a broader discussion of roadway safety. Ultimately, the invited participants of the PDT could become a regular steering committee to address roadway safety from a variety of perspectives for the City.
Based on our prior experience with LRSPs and similar roadway safety plans, we propose two (2) Progress Meetings with the PDT at the following critical points in the LRSP development to provide the greatest benefit for the plan:
DocuSign Envelope ID: 09487D47-CA60-4581-A592-4AB64F1F522B 325 of 615
Signing In Process
▪ Progress Meeting #1: Introduction to the LRSP and safety management process, discussion of PDT member roles, discussion of crash analysis results, and priority locations. ▪ Progress Meeting #2: Review the Draft LRSP and priority projects, identify changes for the Final City of San Mateo LRSP.
Based on the current conditions under the COVID-19 pandemic, we anticipate that the initial meeting will be held virtually. If those conditions change and an in-person meeting is feasible, we will conduct these meetings in-person. Kittelson would coordinate the meeting dates and times. If it is feasible to hold either of these meetings as in-person meetings, we would work with City of San Mateo to identify an appropriate meeting space for the size of the group and accessible for all partners. Kittelson is well-versed at holding and facilitating stakeholder meetings virtually including coordinating and conducting breakout sessions as part of the meeting format. We bring a wide range of tools for virtual meetings including a variety of videoconference platforms (Zoom, Microsoft Team, etc.). We also regularly use visual tools including Concept Boards and Mural.Co that enable stakeholders to view and comment directly on content as others are also viewing and commenting. Those tools help simulate a workshop type of environment.
For each meeting, Kittelson will prepare an agenda, meeting materials, facilitate the discussion and activities, take meeting notes, and disseminate the notes to attendees following the meeting.
Task 2.2 Community Engagement Support
Kittelson will work carefully with the City to tailor outreach activities to the unique characteristics of the city. We will integrate communication techniques, evaluation tools, technical expertise, and interactive mapping into the planning process to enhance safety analysis and evaluation.
Throughout this project, we will structure our outreach approach around the belief that low - income, minority status, or Limited English Proficiency (LEP) should never be a barrier to meaningful engagement.
Task 2.2.1 Project Website
Kittelson will develop and maintain a separate LRSP project website for the City of San Mateo.
The City will have a unique URL (San Mateo name in the website address) that can be provided on the City’s website and social media platforms. The project website will have a landing page that will explain the LRSP process and reason the City is developing an LRSP. This website will house an interactive map that allows comments to be placed at specific locations, i.e., roadways or intersections throughout the City by the public. This website will remain live throughout the LRSP process and public comments will be summarized and addressed through the plan development.
Task 2.2.2 Public Workshop
Kittelson will prepare presentation exhibits and conduct one in-person public workshop, if desired by the City and appropriate given the current local public health conditions . This engagement phase is an opportunity to engage with public to present safety analysis results, gather public feedback on the LRSP and associated goals and strategies.

Task 2.2.3 Selected Communities Public Engagement
Not all roadway segments/intersections in the City have the same safety performance, crash history, or warrant similar treatments. Similarly, not all community groups within the City will require the same material, approach, or level of engagement. Kittelson has built this phase into the process because some places and community groups like downtown area and north central neighborhood will require an additional level of care and coordination.
We will work with the City staff to identify “selected communities/groups” that are expected to be most challenging to gather input through the project website and public workshop. After identifying the selected communities, we will meet with public in these areas by organizing pop - up events/presentation exhibits as part of any other event that’s happening in the neighborhood or in coordination with an existing community group meeting for use during targeted outreach. Kittelson will plan to host one (1) pop-up event/presentation exhibits and up to three (3) smaller scale pop-in/pop-up events in the City. These smaller scale pop-in/pop-up events could be at the farmers market, Hillsdale Mall, or at any non-profit organization events.
This engagement phase is an opportunity to go and engage with public where they are to gather their feedback.
Kittelson team will be prepared to schedule, coordinate, and lead all these meetings, however, we recognize that these meetings may be sensitive, and we will rely on the City staff to advise on which meetings should be scheduled and coordinated to pay special attention to these selected communities. Translation and interpretation services will be provided as necessary at the pop-up event/presentation exhibits.
Task 2.2.4 Public Meetings
Kittelson will assist City staff with preparing and presenting materials, answering questions, and providing notes for up to four (4) public meetings. It is anticipated that the first meeting would focus on presenting safety analysis results, second one on plan vision, goals, objectives, and emphasis areas, third one on priority locations, countermeasures, and non-engineering treatments, and the final one would be for LRSP approval at City Council. This scope assumes Kittelson staff virtual attendance at both public hearings. If desired by the City and appropriate given the current local public health conditions, Kittelson may attend the public meetings in person.
Task 2 Deliverables
▪ Attendance, facilitation, agendas, notes, and materials for up to two (2) PDT meetings ▪ Project website and interactive map
▪ Lead one (1) public workshop
▪ Lead one (1) selected community engagement event
▪ Lead up to three (3) smaller scale pop-in/pop-up events ▪ Public comments summary and participation statistics
▪ Attendance at up to four (4) public meetings
▪ Presentation materials and meeting notes

TASK 3. BACKGROUND REVIEW, PLAN VISION, GOALS, AND
OBJECTIVES
TASK 3 PURPOSE
Establish safety goals, priorities, and objectives for the roadway safety management process in the City. Develop measurable actions that align with the City’s goals and priorities.
Kittelson will work with San Mateo project manager, city staff, and the PDT to create a vision, mission statement, and goals that guide the LRSP and align with City Council priorities, City’s existing plans, California’s Strategic Highway Safety Plan (SHSP), the National Road Safety Strategy, and current best practices in safety including the Safe System Approach. The team will confirm a vision statement and goals that go beyond engineering to encompass the four (4) E’s of Safety. The vision statement will guide the City’s approach to improving roadway safety.
This task will happen in conjunction with Task 4 and Task 5 to allow for the crash and roadway data analysis to inform the development of goals and objectives that directly speak to crash patterns, trends, and risk factors within the City. The goals and objectives are created to supplement the vision and mission statements of the City and are aimed at measurable actions the City can take to improve roadway safety performance. The LRSP goals and objectives will include identifying emphasis crash types and patterns to be addressed, crash risk factors, identifying high-priority locations for crash risk, and implementing the low-cost countermeasures systemically during regular maintenance or capital improvement projects to reduce fatal and severe injury crashes. This will be virtually presented to the Sustainability and Infrastructure Commission to request feedback and recommendations for the goal-setting process.
Kittelson will work with the City to collect and synthesize recent relevant City safety-related plans, engineering studies, and safety improvements. This information will be referenced in subsequent tasks and documented in the final LRSP. Comments will be collected and incorporated into the final LRSP as a part of Task 7.
Task 3 Deliverables
▪ Memorandum summarizing vision statement, mission statement, goals, and priorities ▪ Virtual presentation, materials, and notes to the Sustainability and Infrastructure Commission
TASK 4. COLLISION AND ROADWAY ANALYSIS
TASK 4 PURPOSE
Through a systemic approach, Kittelson will identify roadway characteristics and user behaviors associated with crash risk based on crash history (“risk factors”) to prioritize locations based on the presence of risk factors rather than solely focusing on where crashes have occurred.
Task 4.1 Comprehensive Database Establishment
Kittelson will obtain SWITRS and TIMS crash data for the latest five years of available data.
Kittelson will work with the City to determine any additional crash data available and confirm DocuSign Envelope ID: 09487D47-CA60-4581-A592-4AB64F1F522B 328 of 615
Signing In Process
the desired data period. A consolidated, uniform set of reported crashes will be mapped in a GIS-based platform. Kittelson will also obtain available land use and roadway data to help identify any contributing factors related to crashes in subsequent tasks.
Task 4.2 Crash Trends and Patterns Safety Analysis
With the roadway data and crash databases established in Task 4.1, Kittelson will conduct a network screening to identify high crash frequency and/or severity locations for both intersections and roadway segments. Kittelson will prepare a highly graphical memorandum of analysis findings, which will include a list of priority locations, identified risk factors, and common contributing factors for the crashes. The memorandum will include charts and exhibits illustrating key findings related to factors like personal attributes/human factors (e.g., driver impairment, behavior), vehicular and equipment factors (e.g., braking, occupant restraints), and roa dway and environmental factors (e.g., speed limits, roadway geometric design).
As an example, we have constructed a crash tree diagram presented in Figure 1 indicating the breakdown of crashes by party type (i.e., vehicles, pedestrians, bicyclists, motorc yclists) and location (e.g., intersections vs. roadways). Within the project, such findings could be further disaggregated by crash type, for example, to focus desired emphasis areas. The tree demonstrates, for example, the elevated risk for pedestrians along roadways – they are involved in 7% of reported crashes but 45% of fatal and severe injury crashes.

TASK 5. EMPHASIS AREAS AND COUNTERMEASURES
TASK 5 PURPOSE
Establish emphasis areas for the City. These will be informed by findings from prior tasks and input from the City, stakeholders, and public to ensure sufficient buy-in for future improvements.
Identify countermeasures to address emphasis areas.
Task 5.1 Identify Emphasis Areas
Kittelson will identify emphasis areas using results from the safety analysis in Task 4. Each emphasis area will include goals and strategies that will support the LRSP vision and reduction in crashes consistent with the emphasis area. Kittelson will also help identify safety partners that will be instrumental in supporting the goals of each emphasis area and the vision of the LRSP as a whole. Kittelson will prepare a memorandum that includes the emphasis areas and their goals and strategies and supporting safety partners.
Task 5.2 Identify Countermeasures
Kittelson will work with City of San Mateo staff to identify strategies to help achieve the safety vision established as part of Task 3 and address findings of Task 4. Engineering and non - engineering countermeasures will be considered when identifying potential solutions. Kittelson will develop a memorandum that provides a countermeasures toolbox appli cable to their safety crash trends. The toolbox will include:
Engineering Countermeasures most relevant to the roadway safety vision and goals, high-priority locations, and crash risk factors using the latest version of the Caltrans Local Roadway Safety Manual, the FHWA’s Crash Modification (CMF) Clearinghouse website, HSIP set -aside categories, and other recent countermeasures used or encouraged by the City.
Non-Engineering Countermeasures including education, equitable enforcement, and emergency services strategies that can be implemented to modify user behavior or reduce the likelihood of severe crash outcomes. Partnership with the stakeholder team, review of NHTSA’s Countermeasures that work, the Caltrans SHSP Implementation Plan, and Safe Systems approach and its five elements will help identify feasible solutions that can be utilized to target behavior-related crash factors identified in Task 4.
The emphasis areas, strategies and the countermeasure toolbox will be virtually presented to the Sustainability and Infrastructure Commission to request feedback and recommendations on the emphasis areas and countermeasures. Kittelson will produce a draft memorandum and will revise based on a consolidated set of comments from City staff and additional stakehol ders identified by the City.
Task 5 Deliverables
▪ Memorandum summarizing emphasis areas and strategies to increase safety performance pertinent to each of the emphasis areas
▪ Countermeasures toolbox memorandum
▪ Virtual presentation, materials, and notes to the Sustainability and Infrastructure Commission

TASK 6. PROJECT IDENTIFICATION, EVALUATION, AND
PRIORITIZATION
TASK 6 PURPOSE
Identify high priority locations which will be used as the basis for assessing safety improvement opportunities and for future safety evaluations by the City. Prepare an actionable implementation plan for the City LRSP.
Task 6.1 Identify Priority Locations
Kittelson will identify up to 20 priority locations based on results from Tasks 4 and 5. Kittelson will start with the top high crash frequency and/or severity locations identified in Task 4 and will consult with the City to identify any changes to the top 20, based on recently completed or planned improvements. Kittelson will summarize the priority locations and include comparative attributes with the City, which could include, for example:
• Location type (intersection, roadway, or all)
• Crash history (number of crashes, crash severity score, targeted crashes) • Top reported crash types and primary crash factors
• Alignment with emphasis areas
Task 6.2 Identify Potential Improvements
Kittelson will identify potential improvements using the list of priority locations from Task 6.1.
Kittelson will develop systemic and location-specific project concepts for up to ten (10) locations based on the analysis in Task 4 and the countermeasure toolbox developed in Task 5.2. Project development will consist of countermeasures matched to locations based on crash history and systemic location characteristics.
Task 6.3 Prepare Implementation Plan
Kittelson will work with City of San Mateo and key stakeholders to develop an actionable LRSP implementation plan to prioritize projects, identify funding opportunities to implement projects, and what actions are needed to achieve the goals, objectives, and vision set forth in the LRSP.
The implementation will also serve as a resource to identify and engage key stakeholders and partner agencies to maintain momentum and commitment to the LRSP mission statement and help address cross-jurisdictional roadway safety performance.
A first component of the implementation plan will be developing the communication approach to keep City staff, key stakeholders (i.e., PDT members), and multidisciplinary partners engaged with the LRSP implementation. This could take a variety of forms from developing an approach for annual reporting on safety performance to forming a City safety steering committee to meet, discuss, and move forward safety strategies for implementation. We will outline the best approaches and strategies for the City to keep everyone informed and actively involved as part of LRSP implementation. As part of this plan, Kittelson will also help the city to develop approaches and practices for integrating safety management into existing work practices.
Our team will prepare a draft LRSP implementation plan providing guidance and actions for City staff to implement the LRSP vision. Based on a consolidated set of comments provided by San Mateo staff and the PDT, Kittelson will finalize the LRSP implementation plan for inclusion in the overall LRSP.

Kittelson will work with City staff to identify and prepare up to two (2) HSIP grant applications for the HSIP Cycle 12. Kittelson will prepare materials necessary for the applications, including project concepts, cost estimates, and maps, and provide all supporting documentation and materials.
Task 6 Deliverables
▪ Priority Locations List (up to 20 locations)
▪ Up to ten (10) project concepts
▪ Draft/Final LRSP implementation plan
▪ Two HSIP grant applications, including preliminary concept designs, cost estimates, and supporting information necessary for the applications.
TASK 7. DRAFT AND FINAL LOCAL ROAD SAFETY PLAN
TASK 7 PURPOSE
Prepare an LRSP including goals, emphasis areas, high-priority locations, improvements, and strategies to implement roadway safety management process, and to improve roadway safety in the City of San Mateo.
Kittelson will prepare a draft and final City of San Mateo Local Roadway Safety Plan following the Local Roadway Safety Plan guidance and requirements. The LRSP will include:
• Executive Summary
• Previous efforts to address roadway safety
• Partners and process to develop the LRSP
• Vision and mission statement, goals, and objectives of the LRSP • Current roadway safety performance including the high-injury network and recurring crash trends and patterns, crash data modeling and risk analysis results • Emphasis areas

TASK 8. ENVIRONMENTAL DOCUMENT
TASK 8 PURPOSE
Prepare a guidance document that identifies potential safety impacts and issues for new projects which will trigger a detailed environmental analysis.
Kittelson will prepare a guidance document that outlines the process to identify issues which will trigger a detailed environmental analysis for priority projects. Kittelson will review and follow th e process outlined in Caltrans Interim Land Development and Intergovernmental Review (LDIGR) Safety Review Practitioners Guide, published in 2020, to develop guidance for safety impacts review. The guidance document will include the following, but not limited to:
▪ Safety plans and programs relevant to specific areas/throughout the City ▪ Map that includes high-injury network, and/or network-screening results from Task 4 that refer to the underlying crash risk presence on City’s roadways The LRSP can help the City of San Mateo obtain resources and funding to improve safety performance on roadways and will also be an input to assessing the potential safety impacts of new land use projects and plans. This environmental guidance document will help the City conduct its own safety review in the future to determine whether potential projects’ contribution to the adverse safety impacts identified through the process and maps above constitutes a significant impact under California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA).
We will revise the draft based on one round of consolidated comments provided by City staff, City Council, and partners. We will provide all textual work products in both PDF and Microsoft Word formats, as desired.
OPTIONAL Task 8.1 Scope and Scale of CEQA Analysis
Given that the scope and scale of the safety projects are unknown at this time, Kittelson will work with City staff to determine the scope and scale of CEQA analysis required to environmentally clear the priority projects identified in the LRSP. Following that determination, Kittelson will work with the City to prepare a detailed scope and budget for this optional task to conduct the work.
No budget has been assumed for this task.

FROM: Drew Corbett, City Manager
PREPARED BY: Public Works Department
MEETING DATE: July 18, 2022
SUBJECT:
Rail Shuttle Bus Service Administration – Agreements
RECOMMENDATION:
Approve the Amended and Restated Rail Shuttle Bus Service Administration Agreements for the Campus Drive and Norfolk Shuttles with Commute.org for extension of shuttle operations for a total of $73,375 and authorize the Public Works Director to execute the agreement in substantially the form presented.
BACKGROUND:
On August 18, 2014, City Council approved agreements with the Peninsula Corridor Joint Powers Board (PCJPB) for shuttle bus service on two routes (Campus Drive and Norfolk Area) that connect the City’s Caltrain Stations with the major business parks. The agreements have been extended by amendment, with the most recent Amendment 7 extending the term of service through June 30, 2022. Beginning in July 2022, the shuttle program administration will be managed by Commute.org, requiring an amended agreement outlining the new management structure. For both the initial agreement with the PCJPB and the new management under Commute.org, the City has agreed to fund 25 percent of costs.
The most recent amendment was approved by City Council on June 21, 2021, extending the contract from July 1, 2021 until June 30, 2022. The proposed amended and restated agreements will extend the contract through June 30, 2023, update the management and operations structure for the shuttle program, and update the mutual funding responsibilities for Commute.org and the City. Under the new agreement, the City will continue to contribute 25 percent of the program costs, or approximately $73,375 annually.
Due to service disruptions as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic and related local health orders and the reduced number of commuters utilizing shuttle service in favor of telecommuting, the Norfolk shuttle route is currently on hold. The route and schedule for the Norfolk route will be provided by Commute.org when the service resumes.
BUDGET IMPACT:
The total cost for shuttle operations is $293,500. Commute.org’s maximum contribution is 75 percent of the total cost, or $220,125. The City is responsible for the remaining portion of the total cost, including any amounts over the estimates shown in the table below. This equates to approximately 25 percent of the total cost, or $73,375. This amount is $3,675 more than the prior fiscal year. The City’s portions will be funded from the Citywide Parking and Transportation budget.
The table on the following page summarizes the estimated costs and funding sources for the shuttles. 338 of 615

MARKETING PROGRAM
(As of July 1, 2022)
Commute.org has developed a countywide shuttle marketing plan that serves as the basis for promoting the shuttle program throughout San Mateo County. Commute.org and its partners use a variety of tools to create and execute focused marketing for the shuttle program.
The Commute.org and SamTrans websites serve as a primary source of information about the shuttle program. Riders, and potential riders, use the sites to get information about routes and schedules as well as real-time vehicle location tracking. The mobile version of the Commute.org site is optimized to provide shuttle riders with streamlined access to the information they need during their commute.
Commute.org maintains and publishes route specific GTFS data that is used by transit planning apps including those managed by Google, Apple, 511 and app developers. Passengers can plan trips that include shuttles anywhere Commute.org shuttles operate. Route and schedule information is also available in hard-copy format.
Commute.org works with the cities and property owners where shuttles operate to install and maintain signage indicating where the shuttles stop. New signage is being installed at stop locations throughout San Mateo County.
Commute.org shuttle and employer outreach staff provide presentations about the shuttle program directly to employers and their employees as well as at community events. Rider appreciation events are conducted throughout the year and allow the Commute.org team to thank shuttle riders for their commitment to using shuttles for first/last mile transportation. 352 of 615

MARKETING PROGRAM
(As of July 1, 2022)
Commute.org has developed a countywide shuttle marketing plan that serves as the basis for promoting the shuttle program throughout San Mateo County. Commute.org and its partners use a variety of tools to create and execute focused marketing for the shuttle program.
The Commute.org and SamTrans websites serve as a primary source of information about the shuttle program. Riders, and potential riders, use the sites to get information about routes and schedules as well as real-time vehicle location tracking. The mobile version of the Commute.org site is optimized to provide shuttle riders with streamlined access to the information they need during their commute.
Commute.org maintains and publishes route specific GTFS data that is used by transit planning apps including those managed by Google, Apple, 511 and app developers. Passengers can plan trips that include shuttles anywhere Commute.org shuttles operate. Route and schedule information is also available in hard-copy format.
Commute.org works with the cities and property owners where shuttles operate to install and maintain signage indicating where the shuttles stop. New signage is being installed at stop locations throughout San Mateo County.
Commute.org shuttle and employer outreach staff provide presentations about the shuttle program directly to employers and their employees as well as at community events. Rider appreciation events are conducted throughout the year and allow the Commute.org team to thank shuttle riders for their commitment to using shuttles for first/last mile transportation. 369 of 615

FROM: Drew Corbett, City Manager
PREPARED BY: Public Works Department
MEETING DATE: July 18, 2022
SUBJECT:
SF-Peninsula Regional Purewater Project – Memorandum of Agreement RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt a Resolution to approve a Memorandum of Agreement between the Bay Area Water Supply and Conservation Agency, California Water Service Company, City and County of San Francisco through its Public Utilities Commission, Mid- Peninsula Water District, and Silicon Valley Clean Water for the development of a basis of design report for the SF- Peninsula Regional Purewater project, which will incorporate the City as a party to the agreement and commit to a cost share not to exceed $100,000; and authorize the City Manager to execute the agreement in substantially the form presented.
BACKGROUND:
With on-going drought conditions in the area and a growing population, there is a regional need to explore alternative water supply sources for improved resiliency. Since 2016, the City has been working with the Bay Area Water Supply and Conservation Agency, California Water Service Company, City and County of San Francisco through its Public Utilities Commission (SFPUC), and Silicon Valley Clean Water (SVCW) to study potable water reuse opportunities in the Mid- Peninsula region. The City entered into a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with these agencies and a number of assessments were developed as part of the Potable Reuse Exploratory Plan (PREP) effort. PREP Phase 1 Study: Finalized in 2017, this effort evaluated groundwater reuse replenishment in the San Mateo Plain Basin and reservoir water augmentation at the Crystal Springs Reservoir and Bear Gulch Reservoir, potential water supply options from wastewater treated by SVCW and the City’s wastewater treatment plant, and alternative locations for advanced water purification treatment facilities. PREP Phase 2 Study: This study evaluated options and determined construction costs for an advanced treatment water purification facility and pipelines. This work was finalized in 2019 and highlighted the need for additional analyses to evaluate the impacts of reservoir water augmentation to Crystal Springs Reservoir. Further, the participating agencies identified an opportunity to explore direct potable reuse options in addition to the development of an indirect approach.
PREP Phase 3 Feasibility Study: Mixing, retention times, and operations at the Crystal Springs Reservoir were assessed and alternatives for direct potable reuse on the San Francisco Mid-Peninsula region were evaluated.
Alternatives, costs, benefits, and risks were developed for several options.
Through Phase 3 of the PREP, all parties have supported the recommendation to proceed with the SF-Peninsula Regional Purewater (SPRP) effort, which would involve the development of preliminary engineering design drawings for an advanced water purification facility that would treat wastewater generated from the City and SVCW. This facility would produce water suitable for indirect potable reuse and reservoir water augmentation and supply SFPUC’s Crystal Springs Reservoir. The facility would also be designed to allow for a future expansion for direct potable reuse / treated drinking 375 of 615

water augmentation for Redwood City, Cal Water, and possibly the Mid-Peninsula Water District. The project would produce up to 12 million gallons per day of potable water and is estimated to cost $700 million. The development of the SPRP project preliminary design documents and CEQA checklist costs approximately $1 million and the requested contribution from the City for this phase is $92,700. However, staff recommends for the City Council to approve a contribution in an amount up to $100,000 to account for any unforeseen costs.
While the City is not a water purveyor, the effluent from the wastewater treatment plant could be a valuable resource to the region in addressing extended years of drought. Through a regional approach and collaboration with partnering agencies, the City would continue to support an integrated water management strategy. Staff recommends approval of a Memorandum of Agreement for the SPRP project.
BUDGET IMPACT:
The City's contribution to the total cost of SPRP project of $1,030,000 will be capped at $100,000 and will be funded from the Sewer Fund operating budget - Sewer Fund Engineering Services/Clean Water Program.
ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION:
This is not a project subject to CEQA, because it is an organizational or administrative activity that will not result in direct or indirect physical changes in the environment. (CEQA Guidelines Section 15378(b)(5).)
NOTICE PROVIDED
All meeting noticing requirements were met.

Potable Reuse Exploratory Plan (PREP)
Basis of Design Report (BODR)
The Potable Reuse Exploratory Plan (PREP) is a regional effort to resolve multiple water supply and wastewater issues, while realizing the benefits of shared infrastructure, asset recovery, economies of scale and a more competitive strategy to pursue funding. PREP Parties include the Bay Area Water Supply and Conservation Agency, Cal Water, San Francisco Public Utilities Commission, Silicon Valley Clean Water, and other wastewater providers and recycled water users in the area.
Kennedy Jenks Consultants (KJ) has led the technical work and facilitated a series of interactive webinars and workshops with the PREP Parties over three phases, which have focused on identifying and evaluating concepts for potable reuse on a local and regional scale. Through the PREP studies, the Parties have utilized an integrated approach to identifying projects that enhance local water supply resiliency and reduce discharge to the San Francisco Bay, with the goal of developing a regional project with multiple economic, environmental, and social benefits. The three phases include:
• The PREP Phase 1 Initial Study considered potable reuse alternative concepts, including groundwater replenishment reuse and Reservoir Water Augmentation (RWA) at Crystal Springs Reservoir (CSR) and Bear Gulch Reservoir.
• The PREP Phase 2 Concept Study further defined the concept of a RWA project at CSR. Phase 2 also included a parallel study of PREP Institutional Considerations, which provided a preliminary evaluation of institutional considerations related to the implementation of a potable reuse project that augments CSR with purified water.
• The PREP Phase 3 Feasibility Study was initiated in 2020 to further simulate the impact of reservoir augmentation on the regional water system and explore direct potable reuse opportunities through raw water augmentation and treated drinking water augmentation.
The outcomes of Phase 3 have identified a short-list of projects to move forward for further analysis. The completion of this study is good timing for the SFPUC Regional Water System’s overall water supply planning efforts, for which SFPUC has projected a shortfall of dry year supply by 2025. A PREP Project is one of multiple projects that can address dry year supplies in a short year. SFPUC has made a commitment to the SFPUC Commission to present project(s) that are ready for analysis under the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) by July 2023.
The next steps for the PREP is to develop a hybrid project, resulting from the short list of alternatives identified in Phase 3, to be “CEQA Ready”. “CEQA Ready” to SFPUC means preparation of a conceptual- level design at or near the 10-percent level, and completion of an abbreviated CEQA checklist document, 400 of 615
P age 2
which would allow the project to move forward with CEQA and to be compared with other projects. The PREP Parties identified the need for a Basis of Design Report (BODR) to satisfy these requirements.
At the most recent meeting with the PREP Parties on Jan 25th, 2022, the Parties aligned on developing the BODR for a phased potable reuse project, described as follows:
• Phase 1 – Indirect Potable Reuse (IPR) via Reservoir Water Augmentation (RWA) at Crystal Springs Reservoir (CSR)
• Phase 2 – Direct Potable Reuse (DRP) via Treated Drinking Water Augmentation (TDWA) for local use by the City of Redwood City, Cal Water and/or potentially the Mid-Peninsula Water District. • Construction of a new Advanced Water Purification Facility (AWPF) that meets regulatory requirements for IPR in Phase 1 and DPR for the Phase 2 expansion. • Conveyance infrastructure to deliver tertiary effluent to the new AWPF, purified water to the place of use and brine for discharge via the SVCW outfall. • Upgrades at SFPUC’s Pulgas Facility to treat and discharge purified water into CSR. • Source water derived from up to 8 mgd of tertiary effluent from SVCW and 8 mgd of tertiary effluent from the San Mateo Wastewater Treatment Plant (WWTF) • An operational strategy where the new AWPF would produce up to 12 mgd of purified water for potable reuse, with 6 mgd or more delivered to CSR.
The PREP Parties are also interested in preparing a US Bureau of Reclamation (USBR) Title XVI Feasibility Study (FS) / SWRCB Recycled Water Facilities Planning Study (RWFPS) to be able to get in line for funding through US Bureau of Reclamation (USBR) and for SRF funds. The report will aim to meet the requirements of both funding agencies in one document. Given the available funding remaining in Phase 3 budget, the PREP Phase 3 Feasibility Study will be submitted in a format to match the USBR Title XVI FS requirements, with a cross-walk to meet the SWRCB RWFPS requirements. The initial work completed as part of the BODR will be integrated into the Title XVI FS to define the recommended project and considerations for environmental, legal, financing and research needs, which are elements required by USBR. Due to limited USBR staffing resources, the timing for review and approval are uncertain at this time, however, the goal will be to submit a Draft Title XVI FS to USBR by end of June in hopes of having an approved Final Title XVI FS by the end of 2022.
This scope of work presented herein has been prepared to develop a Basis of Design Report (BODR) that meets SFPUC definition of “CEQA Ready” by July 2023. The following Attachments are included to support this Scope of work:
• Attachment A: Agreement between SVCW and Kennedy/Jenks Consultants, Inc. • Attachment B: Detailed Fee Breakdown and Rate Schedule • Attachment C: CEQA Checklist
• Attachment D: USBR/SWRCB Report Outlines and Cross-Walk 401 of 615
Scope of Work
The scope of work includes the following tasks to develop a BODR for a phased, hybrid potable reuse project that meets the requirements of SFPUC’s definition of CEQA Ready by July 1, 2023.

Task 1: AWPF Basis of Design and Drawings
This task will focus on developing a conceptual-basis of design for the AWPF, including defining treatment processes and design criteria to meet IPR and DPR regulatory requirements, siting considerations at up to three locations and preliminary drawings at a conceptual-level of design to support the cost analysis in Task 4 and fulfill the CEQA checklist requirements in Task 5.
1.1 AWPF Treatment Requirements and Design Criteria
Purpose: Identify conceptual-level AWPF treatment requirements.
Description: Furthering the design concepts established in the PREP Phase 3 Feasibility Study, KJ will establish the design requirements and criteria for the advanced water purification facility, which will include the following:
• Regulatory/permitting requirements for RWA/TDWA treatment processes • Summary of the tertiary effluent quality (influent to the AWPF) • Summary of treatment objectives and water quality objectives for RWA/TDWA • Preliminary design criteria for the AWPF, including but not limited to anticipated removal rates, equipment sizing, chemical dosing, etc.
• Code and standard reference requirements
• Phasing implementation plan and schedule
• Staffing requirements and operator certification requirements at potable reuse facilities • AWPF Process Flow Diagram
• AWPF Hydraulic Profile
• Preliminary operational strategies
The AWPF train is expected to consist of the following:
• Ozone and biologically activated carbon (BAC) filtration pretreatment, likely required for TDWA and potentially beneficial for a phased RWA/TDWA project • Low-pressure membrane microfiltration (MF) or ultrafiltration (UF) pretreatment • Reverse osmosis (RO) system
• Advanced oxidation process (AOP), which typically combines UV treatment with the addition of an oxidant, such as hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) or chlorine • Free chlorine or ozone addition (to provide additional log-removal credits for virus or giardia if the dilution credits are insufficient)
• Product Water Stabilization
• Process equalization and storage tanks
• Dechlorination prior to discharge into the reservoir (to meet surface water requirements), which may be achieved via breakpoint chlorination at the AWPF or at the Pulgas Facilities (Task 3) • Nutrient removal after the AWPF process (to reduce nutrients prior to discharge into the reservoir to meet surface water quality objectives), which may also be achieved via breakpoint chlorination at the AWPF or at the Pulgas Facilities.
404 of 615
Assumptions:
1. This Conceptual-Design scope and associated level of effort is based on a 12 mgd output capacity AWPF.
2. SVCW will provide the geotechnical, survey, utility or other site-specific information available for the site near SVCW and the Hwy 101 Site prior to start of this task.

The repurposing of abandoned pipelines identified in the Phase 2 Concept Study will further be explored including:
• Repurposing the SVCW Influent Line, a 54-inch RCP pipeline that will be deactivated in advance of repurposing or decommissioning in late 2022. This segment is approximately three miles in 408 of 615
length and traverses through the Redwood Shores area, a community that is particularly sensitive to new construction. One, or possibly two, pipelines could be slip-lined into the abandoned pipeline and supported inside to convey: 1) purified water to the place of use; 2) tertiary effluent to the AWPF at the Hwy 101 site; and/or 3) the RO concentrate or reject water back to the SVCW outfall.
• Repurposing the SVCW Abandoned Sewer Line, which includes 48-inch to 54-inch pipeline segments that are also planned to be abandoned in late 2022 after the SVCW Gravity Pipeline Project is complete. This segment is approximately 2.4 miles in length and passes through an environmentally sensitive area on Inner Bair Island (part of the Don Edwards San Francisco Bay National Wildlife Refuge managed by the US Fish and Wildlife Service), which would be a challenging and expensive stretch to lay new pipeline. A segment of the pipeline on Bair Island, now decommissioned and out of service, is subject to ground movement in poor soils and has had joint leaks while in service and operating under pressure. This 48-inch segment passes through (and under) the San Carlos Airport, which is owned and operated by the County of San Mateo. The alignment from the Hwy 101 APWF site to Inner Bair Island RCP either passes through airport and under Pulgas Creek that separates Airport from Inner Bair, or it goes down Skyway Road and has a trenchless crossing under Pulgas Creek (SVCW has paid for and recorded a permanent easement for this crossing, which was not used as part of the SVCW 48-inch force main project completed in 2015).
This task will identify a conceptual-level design criteria to repurpose these valuable assets by installing and/or suspending new pipeline(s) within the abandoned pipe.

• RWA operational strategies to meet regulatory requirements for dilution and retention were developed as part of the Phase 3 Feasibility Study, utilizing a Reservoir Operations Model (ROM), utilizing data from SFPUC’s monthly timestep water balance model called the Hetch Hetchy Local Simulation Model (HHLSM). For the PREP Phase 3 Study, the HHLSM model was primarily used to understand the amount of available storage space for purified water in the RWS in dry years, the associated water supply benefits for the RWS, and conversely to evaluate the amount of water that would “spill” from the RWS to make room for purified water when the reservoir system is full (e.g. primarily in wet years). Three RWA operational scenarios (continuous, seasonal ramp down and seasonal shut down) were evaluated to assess the impact of continuous versus seasonal augmentation with purified water, to calculate how reduced production of purified water would reduce the amount of spill during wet years. • TDWA operational strategies do not have to adhere to retention requirements, however there is still a nexus with the blending of purified water with other water (e.g. potable water or raw water) to provide additional dilution, which may guide the need for additional treatment processes (e.g. ozone and biological activated carbon (BAC)). Additionally, augmenting a local drinking water system with purified water could theoretically result in a “spill” from the RWS when the reservoir system is full and those. The Phase 3 Feasibility Study did not assess TWDA operational scenarios.
Purpose: This task will summarize the preliminary operational strategies for both RWA and TDWA to support the development of AWPF design and operational criteria. For RWA, operational strategies to meet dilution and retention criteria will guide treatment process selection for meeting log-removal value (LRV) requirements set forth by the Division of Drinking Water (DDW). For TWDA, operational strategies will consider potable water demands and the percent of purified water augmenting each Agency’s drinking water distribution system. The potential for “spill” from the RWS will be addressed for both RWA and TDWA.
Description: This task will describe the following:
• Overall approach for introduction of purified water into CSR to meet RWA regulatory requirements for retention and dilution, based on the ROM outcomes. • Operational strategies that could be applied to maintain retention greater than or equal to 6 months and dilution greater than or equal to 100:1 to minimize LRV requirements • Operational strategies to minimize the amount of Hetch Hetchy water that would “spill” in the upcountry system as a result of purified water addition to CSR, based on the HHLSM model outcomes from the Phase 3 Feasibility Study. This could include ramping down or shutting down the AWPF during wet months of wet years, as evaluated in Phase 3. 420 of 615
• Estimation of the amount of purified water that would be blended with potable water in that portion of each water agency’s service area that is augmented by purified water, based on the outcomes of Task 4.4.
• The need for a three-dimensional (3-D) hydrodynamic numerical model of the Crystal Springs – San Andrews Reservoir System to simulate mixing, dilution and retention within the reservoir, and evaluate compliance with the key elements of the RWA regulations.
Assumptions:
1. The ROM will be run to identify emergency scenarios and operational constraints to avoid the calculated retention going below 6 months.
2. A three-dimensional (3-D) hydrodynamic numerical model will not be developed as part of this task.
3. Field data collection will not be performed as part of this task.
4. Drinking water distribution system considerations will be addressed in Task 4.4.
Deliverable: Prepare a Preliminary Operational Strategies TM to document items above. A Draft and Final Preliminary Operational Strategies TM will be included as an appendix to the BODR.
4.4 Drinking Water Distribution System Considerations
Purpose: Identify preferred points of connection to introduce purified water into the existing drinking water distribution systems owned and operated by the City of Redwood City, CalWater and/or the Mid- Peninsula Water District, and determine potential operational and hydraulic constraints and infrastructure requirements.
Description: For TDWA, purified water would be delivered to the drinking water distribution system for local distribution. Potential tie-in locations would consist of potable water storage tanks, distribution and/or transmission pipelines. The following potential points of connection will be considered:
• Redwood City’s existing Redwood Shores tanks, which have a combined storage capacity of 6.2 million gallons (MG). Additional points of connection to be identified by Redwood City and their modeling group.
• CalWater has various locations within its distribution system that could serve as potential tie-in locations in San Carlos and San Mateo. Cal Water is planning to add additional storage tanks that could potentially be an additional tie-in. Additional points of connection to be identified by CalWater and their modeling group.
• Mid-Peninsula Water District service area potential points of connection to be identified by their modeling group.
Understanding the boundary conditions for augmenting each drinking water system is important to defining flow restrictions and infrastructure requirements.
Assumptions:
1. Purified water would be delivered to the existing potable distribution systems via:
421 of 615
o Existing tanks via an air gap or an existing inlet manifold o Direct pipe-to-pipe connections within the distribution system. This option would require coordination regarding the hydraulic grade line (HGL)/operating pressure of the existing potable water pipeline at the tie-in location. Pressure reducing valves/systems will be identified as needed.
2. Redwood City, CalWater and the MPWD would provide information on their respective systems, hydraulic capacities, operating HGLs and pressures at each tie-in location, operational constraints, and preferred locations and infrastructure requirements to tie-in.
3. Redwood City, CalWater and the MPWD will share considerations for planned and future CIP projects that may be impacted by or benefit from the project.
4. This task includes up to six (6) meetings with Redwood City, CalWater and MPWD to discuss point of connection to their potable water system, coordinate with their modeling groups and walk through the Draft TM.
5. Redwood City, CalWater and the MPWD would run their respective drinking water distribution system models and provide operational and design criteria and limitations (e.g. pressure requirements, maintenance and operational requirements, etc.) as appropriate.
6. Development of a new distribution system hydraulic model is not included in this task.
Deliverable: Prepare a Drinking Water Distribution System TM to document items above, define infrastructure and system operational requirements and identify additional evaluations needed to support the next phase of design. A Draft and Final Drinking Water Distribution System TM will be included as an appendix to the BODR.
Task 5: SFPUC CEQA Checklist and NEPA Considerations
5.1 CEQA Checklist
Purpose: In order for the proposed project to be considered “CEQA Ready” by SFPUC, SFPUC’s CEQA Checklist for environmental review would need to be submitted to provide SFPUC’s Bureau of Environmental Management (BEM) with sufficient information about the project and alternatives to begin environmental review. The completed CEQA Checklist would allow the project to move forward with CEQA and to be compared with other projects.
Description: This task will address relevant elements of the SFPUC CEQA Checklist, provided in Attachment C, based on the conceptual-level design in Tasks 1 through 3, and additional efforts performed as part of Task 4 or the Phase 3 Title XVI Feasibility Study.
Assumptions:
1. This task is focused on providing information about the project to meet SFPUC’s BEM initial requirements to perform environmental review.
2. The Checklist will be developed using information developed as part of conceptual-level design , known site conditions, and anticipated permit requirements. 422 of 615
3. No additional site work or coordination with permitting or trustee agencies will take place as part of Task 5.
4. This task assumes three (3) meetings with SFPUC BEM staff to answer questions about CEQA Checklist items and discuss comments received on the Admin Draft and Draft CEQA Checklists.
Deliverable:
Admin Draft, Draft and Final CEQA Checklist Report, which will be included as an appendix to the BODR.
The schedule assumes that the PREP parties will review and return comments on submitted deliverables within two weeks. Each agency shall submit one set of consolidated comments, preferrable in a digital format (track changes/comments in word and pdfs)
5.2 NEPA Considerations
Purpose: Since the project will potentially pursue federal funding in the future, either through USBR Title XVI program or EPA loan programs (e.g. WIFIA), NEPA analysis may be required in the future. The purpose of this task will be to identify the additional analyses needed to comply with NEPA (e.g., “cross- cutters”) Cross-cutting federal authorities are the requirements of other federal laws and Executive Orders that apply in the case of federally funded projects. In the State Revolving Fund (SRF) programs, compliance with federal cross-cutting authorities is required by all recipients of these federal funds.
Typical federal cross-cutters that need to be addressed include: the Archaeological and Historic Preservation Act , the Clean Air Act, the Coastal Barriers Resources Act, the Coastal Zone Management Act, the Endangered Species Act, the Environmental Justice Executive Order, Flood Plain Management, the Migratory Bird Treaty Act, and the National Historic Preservation Act.
Description: The USBR Title XVI Feasibility Study report, completed as part of Phase 3, does not require National Environmental Policy Act (NEPA) compliance, however, USBR does require a discussion on whether, and to what extent, the proposed Title XVI project will have potentially significant impacts on endangered or threatened species, public health or safety, natural resources, regulated waters of the United States, or cultural resources. As well as identification of additional and/or unique environmental risks, environmental and cultural compliance measures or NEPA compliance measures (e.g. use of CEQA+ approach to satisfy NEPA Requirements) , which will be discussed with SFPUC BEM staff who will be responsible for leading future CEQA efforts.
SFPUC’s CEQA Checklist (Attachment C) notes that if projects are pursuing federal funding or require federal permits then NEPA analysis would be required and would need to analyze a range of alternatives with a co-equal level of detail. The approach for Task 1 to look at two alternative AWPF sites and Task 2 to look at multiple alignments would serve to support this requirement.
Assumptions: The description of NEPA considerations will be developed using information developed as part of conceptual-level design, known site conditions, and anticipated permit requirements. No additional site work or coordination with permitting or trustee agencies will take place as part of Task 5. 423 of 615
Deliverable: A list of additional analysis that would need to occur, above and beyond that typically performed to comply with CEQA, to meet the federal cross-cutters and make the project eligible for federal funding. This information will be incorporated into the appropriate section of the BODR in Task 7.
Task 6: Cost Analysis and Financial Planning
6.1 Engineers Estimate of Probable Costs for Conceptual-Level Design Purpose: The engineers estimate of probable cost will include a summary of cost assumptions, construction, operations and maintenance (O&M), unit life cycle costs and other cost considerations. The cost analysis will be at a Class IV level (AACE) sufficient to reflect the conceptual-level design.
Description: This task will identify capital and O&M costs for the proposed project and any sub- alternatives identified as part of the basis of design, reflecting annual costs to construct, operate and maintain the system. Unit life cycle cost will be developed to compare the project cost to projected wholesale water rates over time.
• Capital Costs: will be developed at a Class IV level, representing quantity take-offs from the preliminary design, capturing anticipated material and labor costs by discipline and appropriate markups. Unit costs will be based on equipment quotes, recent projects and professional experience for treatment, pipelines, pump stations, storage tanks and other facilities. Site development costs will be based on earthwork quantities developed as part of the conceptual-level civil design work.
Additional facility costs yard piping, electrical, and instrumentation and controls are assigned as a percent of facility costs. Sales taxes, mobilization costs, engineering and design, environmental permitting, contractor overhead and profit costs, and an estimate contingency are applied to all alternatives as a percent of facility direct costs. An annual inflation rate will be applied to represent anticipated escalation to the mid-point of construction, based on an estimated construction schedule.
• Annualized Construction Costs: Construction costs will be converted to annualized life cycle costs using basic assumptions about discount rates and life expectancy of project components. • O&M Cost: will be developed, representing O&M requirements from the preliminary design, capturing anticipated material and labor costs by discipline and appropriate markups. Annual O&M costs include energy, labor, chemicals, and maintenance costs with a contingency applied to all O&M costs. Operational considerations, such as ramping or shutting down the AWPF will be incorporated into the O&M costs.
• Life Cycle Unit Cost: Annualized construction costs will be added to O&M annual costs to get a total annualized costs for the project. Total annualized costs will be divided by the purified water delivered over the life of the project to obtain a uniformly derived unit cost of water in dollars per acre-foot ($/AF), which is also converted to dollars per gallon ($/gal) and dollars per hundred cubic feet ($/CCF).
424 of 615
• Cost of “Spill”: The amount of “spilled” water will be estimated based on the Reservoir Operations Modeling work done in Phase 3 and discussions with SFPUC. The cost of spilled water may be estimated based on the projected wholesale water rate over time or another rate schedule, to be determined by SFPUC. The intent is to reflect the lost opportunity to capture upcountry supplies if there is insufficient storage in the Regional Water System (RWS).
Assumptions: PREP Parties will provide feedback on proposed cost assumptions and provide recent relevant project bids, if available. Given current chain supply issues, an additional contingency will be included in the cost estimate to reflect increased bid prices received for pipeline projects in the area.
Opinions of probable construction cost will be at a preliminary level (+50%/-15%) accuracy with allowances and contingencies applicable to this level of estimate.
Deliverable: Prepare a Cost Analysis TM that defines the cost assumptions used to develop the Class IV costs and includes detailed and summary cost tables for construction, O&M and unit life cycle costs. A Draft and Final Cost Analysis TM will be included as an appendix to the BODR.
6.2 Project Implementation Schedule
Purpose: a proposed project implementation schedule will be developed to support the unit life cycle cost analysis, financial plan and CEQA checklist (Task 5). The schedule will reflect a phased project that begins with RWA and expands to include TDWA.
Description: the schedule will identify milestone dates for design, environmental documentation, permitting, contract bidding, equipment procurement, construction, testing and start-up.
Assumptions: Project delivery strategies can be discussed but a preferred method (e.g. design bid build, design build, progressive design build, or other) will not be identified as part of this effort. A discussion of how these different strategies will impact the schedule can be provided.
Deliverable: Proposed project implementation schedule and discussion of implementation considerations, to be incorporated into the appropriate section of the BODR in Task 7.
6.3 Financial Planning Considerations
Purpose: The purpose of this task is to identify potential approaches to fund the project as it moves into construction. This task will focus on funding considerations irrespective of institutional agreements, cost sharing and ownership framework, which will not be determined as part of this task.
Description: The financial plan will utilize the cost analysis (Task 4.1), identify typical funding sources (financing approaches, bonds, grants/loans) and discuss common pricing policies to identify key considerations for financial planning. Since the project sponsor will not be identified as part of this study, the financing plan will be at a conceptual level, documenting established vehicles used by the PREP Parties to fund capital projects and recovery annual costs. This task will identify the connectivity between design, environmental/permitting and construction activities on funding (e.g. eligibility for grants/loans to payback considerations).

ATTACHMENT C | CEQA Checklist
CER CHECKLIST FOR ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW (PROJECT DESCRIPTION REQUIREMENTS) Project Name:
Project Number:
PM:
PE:
EPM:
This checklist is designed to provide the design team assistance in determining the type of information that must be provided to Bureau of Environmental Management (BEM) for environmental review. These Description Requirements should be provided at the Draft CER stage. Each team, at the project’s initial conception, should contact environmental staff for assistance in completing this form. The use of this form will be iterative as the project is developed, new environmental issues are identified, and additional detail is needed until CEQA certification and all permits are obtained.
Please note that although this form is titled “checklist”, it is not a form that simply requires check marks.
It is a set of required descriptions of the project components, to be supplied in text and graphics in sufficient detail, the adequacy of which will be determined by the Environmental Project Manager (EPMs). The checklist must be provided at the Draft CER stage, but no later than six (6) months prior to completion of the first administrative draft of the EIR or MND. In addition to filling out the checklist, the PM should provide a description of the project including all the project components covering construction, operation, and maintenance.
The checklist must be completed before a date can be set to present the CER to the Program Steering Committee. A project description outline is provided for your information only. Descriptions will vary depending on the project.
442 of 615
*** Only text in RED is required to meet SFPUC’s definition of CEQA Ready (Per SFPUC) *** *** Additional notes pertaining to this project, from discussion with SFPUC, are provided in GREEN *** Project Objectives
1. Describe the purpose and need for the project. What will this particular project accomplish?
2. List and describe specific project objectives (not Program objectives).
Site Plan
Provide a site plan on a topographic map. Everything should be labeled as either new or existing. Information on the site plan should include the following, including square footage, length, diameter, etc.:
1. Structural footprints (general areas) – existing and created by the project.
2. Roadways and parking areas – existing & created by the project (both permanent and temporary).
3. Utility lines, including construction utilities such as electrical or dewatering lines. Water crossings should be clearly marked. Estimated pole locations should be marked.
4. Emergency generators, SCADA equipment. *estimate as best as possible
5. Fencing (permanent and construction). *types of fencing is not necessary
6. Spoils areas.
7. All grading areas, such as cutting into a slope. *be clear about areas that will be disturbed, “absolute limits” disturbed is important to be broad enough b/c that will guide surveys
8. Laydown/staging areas.
9. Absolute limits on construction area (provide map, square feet/acreage of the project site). Nothing can occur outside of this area – no parking cars for the workmen, no ground disturbance, nothing. Give yourself enough room to work. However, don’t add areas you know you will not need, as it makes the environmental review much more difficult. For example, if you show that an area of trees is within the construction area, BEM will assume those trees will be taken down.
10. Estimated cut/fill information (cubic yards and acreages preferred, but LxWxD is OK).
This is necessary for various topical analyses, such as truck haul estimates in the traffic section, land disturbance, etc.
11. Maximum depth of excavation.
12. General information about elevation, and planned changes in topography. This includes spoils areas – provide a cross-section of the fill, or at least some type of quantified description.
13. Specific information about the types of construction equipment to be used. This is to determine noise and air quality impacts. *Specific information about types of construction equipment can be left out b/c it is very involved
14. Information on all structures affected by the project, including age of existing buildings if known. This is necessary for the historic analysis and needs to be coordinated with the 443 of 615
environmental team member early in the process to determine if further studies are needed. This is especially important if demolition or alteration of structures is planned.
15. Information on offsite spoils areas (and a list of potential landfills if possible). CEQA addresses environmental impacts on offsite spoils areas.
16. Official address of site (or mailing address if no “official” address), if known. Many PUC facilities do not have addresses. *not relevant for pipelines
17. Description of future and operations maintenance activities.
18. Information on parking/loading spaces (numbers of each, including handicapped spaces). *parking and loading spaces can be optional
19. Preliminary project schedule.
20. Construction durations by type of activity. While optional during preparation of this checklist, it will be eventually required for the environmental review.
21. Blowoff locations, and information on where discharges will drain. Also, shutdown information when it concerns discharges. This should be shown on a map. *not relevant, only provide if known
22. Landscaping plans. While optional during preparation of this checklist, it will be eventually required for the environmental review. (This is not a requirement for a plan but rather a general description of type of land cover.) *not needed if only grass, describe for mitigation areas
* 10% civil drawings will be sufficient define much of the site plan information. Pipeline alignments do not have to identify the centerline, as preferred side of the road may not be known, however it would be beneficial to estimate how many lanes will close during construction. Jacking and receiving pits should be identified where possible.
Land Use
1. Aerials of the project area (including staging areas, spoils areas, etc.).
2. Information on encroachment issues – will anything (structures, trees) need to be removed from our ROW?
3. Parcel maps of the area, showing adjacent properties.
4. Copy of USGS 7.5-minute quad maps for the project area.
5. A list of all property owners within 300 feet of the property line of the site if a GRE, NegDec or EIR is expected. Two sets of address labels are required.
6. San Francisco Master Plan designation and zoning of the project parcels. Sites outside City limits require local designation/zoning information.
7. Present and past use of the site, especially permitted uses, if available. *does not apply for roadways
8. Information on growth-inducing issues. This should be coordinated with the environmental manager.
9. Information on any historic preservation requirements.
10. Information on watershed requirements, including applicable policies of the Watershed Management Plans, if applicable.
11. Information on all other permits other than CEQA, NEPA, & resource agencies for project approval (e.g., NPDES, SPMP, etc.) required for the project. 444 of 615
Water, Operations, and Maintenance
1. Dewatering information (estimated location of Baker tanks, location of discharge, estimated quantity if known, etc.) *state if discharge going to the sewer
2. Information on groundwater levels, if known.
3. Flood zone maps, if available.
4. Information on ordinary high water mark for waterways, if applicable.
5. Salt water intrusion information, if necessary. Often occurs as a result of dewatering drawdown.
6. Information on operation water quality/quantity issues (such as any planned discharges, diversion rates, planned releases, etc.).
Hazardous Waste
1. UST information. Coordination with the environmental team member is necessary if USTs exist. A Phase I or II site assessment might be required.
2. Information on chemicals and fuels storage during construction and operation.
3. Site status on the State’s “Cortese List” (list of sites with known hazardous contamination).
4. Existing Phase I, Phase II, or geotechnical studies. Required if you already have them.
However, it is not required for you to perform these studies. * If Phase I/II survey is available for above ground facility site include as general info and soils samples would be useful. Not needed for pipeline alignments.
Noise
1. Information on pile driving, if needed. Indicate the locations and estimated duration of pile/sheet driving. * CEQA assumes impact driven unless otherwise noted. Similar or local work could be used as an example to justify methods/timing
2. Spec. sheets on any noise-generating operational equipment (such as pumps, compressors, or generators – we also need to know the types of actuators being used on valves). This is used with zoning information to determine if operational noise is within an acceptable range. If not, design changes may be required. This should be coordinated with the environmental team member. These spec. sheets do not need to be of the exact equipment that will be used (as that is probably not known). Spec. sheets of representative equipment can be used.
Aesthetics
1. Spec. sheets on proposed lighting elements. These spec. sheets do not need to be of the exact equipment that will be used (as that is probably not known). Spec. sheets of representative equipment can be used. While optional during preparation of this checklist, it will be eventually required for the environmental review.
2. Information on estimated size/height and detail of existing or proposed structures. This includes vaults and proposed access to vaults. *general description and/or block drawing of building would be sufficient (e.g. natural colors, consistent architecture, noted height restrictions, etc.), architectural rendering is not required. 445 of 615
3. Information on site lighting. * description to note that permanent lighting would follow guidance (e.g. shine downward and not spill into residential areas). Lighting plan is not required.
4. Planned color of structures, if known.
Geology and Soils
1. Information on faults. This includes if the project is located on an Alquist-Priolo Earthquake Fault zone, if known (See http://www.consrv.ca.gov/CGS/rghm/ap/ for more information on these fault zones).
2. Information on expansive soil (as per Building code), if known.
3. Geotechnical studies, if available (See hazardous waste above). Required by the Planning Dept. *no field work required
4. Information on geologic work near/adjacent to structures (estimates of vibration effects).
Traffic
1. Traffic information, such as proposed haul routes. *estimate as best as possible, assume shortest routes.
2. Estimated staffing levels of existing or proposed facility. Used to determine parking/traffic issues. *estimate as best as possible
Biological Description
If any trees greater than 4 inches in trunk diameter or taller than 20 feet will be removed, a plot plan is required showing the location, size, and common or botanic name(s) of each. *not needed, no plot plan but do indicate if trees will be taken down. Grading plan can provide some detail.
Air Quality
Information on any generators (including map and spec. sheets) for air requirements. Contact the EPM for the latest requirements and refer to
Sample CEQA Air Quality Information (eDOCS
DM #762889). *operational power requirements are not as important (either PG&E or Hetch Hetchy power) but construction power is important (e.g. temporary diesel generators for large power uses like tunnel boring machines). Note potential areas where there could be a concern to be further evaluated later.
Note on NEPA: If your project has federal funding attached, requires certain federal permits (primarily an “Individual” Corps wetland permit), or is located on federal land, NEPA analysis might be required (NEPA is the federal equivalent of CEQA). NEPA will require that you analyze a range of alternatives in equal level of detail, and also have other informational requirements that will need to be addressed in the CER. Your EPM will have more information on NEPA compliance.

Agenda Number: 20 Section Name: OLD BUSINESS Account Number: 25-3112 File ID: 22-6186 TO: City Council
FROM: Drew Corbett, City Manager
PREPARED BY: Community Development Department
MEETING DATE: July 18, 2022
SUBJECT:
General Plan Update – Land Use Map
RECOMMENDATION:
Confirm the draft land use map and the heights and densities associated with each land use category for the General Plan Update, and consider a land use designation request at 1501-1555 Hillsdale Blvd.
BACKGROUND:
The City’s General Plan Update (GPU) kicked off in the fall of 2018 and began with a series of visioning workshops and community meetings. From April 2019 through January 2022, the General Plan team held a series of meetings and events to establish the General Plan study areas, create the range of land use and circulation alternatives, confirm the draft alternatives, and receive feedback on the preferred land use and circulation scenario with the community. In April 2022, the City Council held a public hearing and selected the preferred land use and circulation scenario that would go into the GPU. This meeting to confirm the land use map is the final step in the alternatives phase of the GPU process. More information about the outreach process, including meeting materials and recordings and public comment letters, is available at www.StriveSanMateo.org.
Overview of the Alternatives Process
The land use alternatives explore different possible growth scenarios for how to accommodate future housing, jobs, commercial and retail establishments, and parks and open space. The City is proactively planning to meet the requirements of State housing law, identify solutions for transportation and housing affordability issues, be prepared for the projected population and job growth in the region and locally, and other issues such as improving community health, equity, access to services, sustainability and climate change. This work is guided by the General Plan Vision and Values, which were established at the outset of the project.
The process to create the land use and circulation alternatives, and to ultimately select a preferred land use and circulation scenario, has taken approximately two years and been shaped by community input at every significant step of the process.
In general, each step of the alternatives process includes a similar series of meetings: first, community workshop(s) and outreach events, then General Plan Subcommittee (GPS) meeting(s), followed by Planning Commission meeting(s), and culminating in City Council direction. For additional information about the steps to create the land use and circulation alternatives and selection of the preferred scenario, please refer to the April 18, 2022 City Council Agenda Report.
DISCUSSION:
Preferred Land Use Scenario
The three land use alternatives explored growth of approximately 12,000, 16,000, and 21,000 new residential units. All land use alternatives kept job growth constant despite varying residential growth, with the assumption that the City would not implement policies to either significantly stimulate, nor significantly dampen, job growth. The Alternatives Evaluation 460 of 615

City Council Meeting
On April 18, 2022, the City Council held a public meeting to review and provide direction on the draft circulation and land use alternatives. The City Council selected Circulation Alternative C as the preferred circulation scenario (4 -1 vote) and directed staff to address environmental justice issues through implementation of this scenario.
To select the land use alternative, the Council passed individual motions by Study Area to create the preferred land use scenario. The Council’s preferred land use scenario is a combination of Land Use Alternatives, A, B, and C, with an emphasis on Land Use Alternatives B and C. The City Council selected the Planning Commission’s recommendation for Study Areas 2, 3, and 5. Table 2 summarizes the Council’s motion for the preferred land use scenario for each study area.
The Council’s preferred land use scenario is illustrated Citywide in Attachment 1 and by Study Area in Attachment 2.

Suggested Refinements to Preferred Land Use Scenario
Following the April 18, 2022 Council meeting, staff reviewed the Council preferred land use scenario and identified suggested refinements to align with the overall direction Council provided. These refinements include:
Splitting the designation of the PS Business Park site in Study Area 8 so that Mixed-Use High fronts the eastern half of the parcel along South Amphlett Blvd and Hwy 101, and the western half of the parcel adjacent to existing residential neighborhoods is designated as Mixed-Use Medium. During the meeting, Council directed staff to ensure that the Preferred Scenario does not unintentionally reduce residential capacity (aka “downzoning”). Staff identified several small sites scattered around a couple of the study areas where development capacity could potentially be reduced under the Preferred Scenario. To address this, staff recommends adding two new designations to prevent a potential decrease of either the maximum density or the allowed height in the existing General Plan.
oResidential Low/Medium (3-5 stories, 36 to 50 du/ac). The existing High Density Multi-Family designation allows up to 50 units per acre. The Residential Low-Medium designation would be in addition to the Residential Low designation (1-4 stories, 9 to 35 du/ac) and Residential Medium designation (4-6 stories, 40 to 99 du/ac).
oMixed-Use Low/Medium (3-5 stories, 0.25 FAR retail and 3.0 FAR office) as a transition between Mixed-Use Low (1-3 stories, 0.25 FAR retail and 1.0 FAR office) and Mixed-Use Medium (4-6 stories, 0.25 FAR retail and
3.0 FAR office).
For parcels with an existing General Plan designation of High Density Multi-Family (36 – 50 du/ac) and a preferred scenario designation of either Residential Low or Mixed-Use Low, staff suggests changing the designation to Residential Low/Medium or Mixed-Use Low/Medium so that the maximum allowed residential density on these parcels would remain at 50 du/a. Similarly, for parcels with an existing allowed building height of 55 feet and a preferred scenario designation of either Residential Low or Mixed-Use Low, staff suggests a new designation of Residential Low/Medium or Mixed-Use Low/Medium so that the maximum allowed height on these parcels would remain at 55 feet.
General Plan Land Use Designations
Staff is also seeking Council direction on the land use designations for the citywide General Plan Land Use Map. Staff recommends that the 2040 General Plan utilize land use designations that align with the Place Type Menu designations employed throughout the alternatives process. The Place Types are similar to the existing General Plan Land Use designations but utilize a slightly different and simplified naming convention, and propose different density ranges. In addition, the Place Types Menu introduces three new land use categories (i.e. Residential High, Mixed-Use High, and Office High) that would accommodate higher density and taller residential and non-residential structures than currently allowed in the General Plan. Attachment 3 includes a matrix that shows how the proposed land use designations would correlate to the existing General Plan Land Use designations in terms of name, description, height, and density.
As part of the conversion from the Place Types Menu to land use designation, some detail related to the allowable height needs to be confirmed. Table 3 shows the height and density ranges for each level of land use intensity. Specifically, staff is seeking City Council confirmation on the height and density ranges for the Low, Low/Medium, Medium and High designations. These intensities are associated with Residential, Mixed-Use, and Office land use designations. Low – Density max has been reduced slightly, from 39 to 35, to align with the Low/Medium density range, and the height max has been raised from 3 to 4 stories. These changes are proposed to align with existing land uses intensities for areas outside of the 10 study areas.
Low/Medium – New land use designation to accommodate existing sites that have heights and/or densities that exceed those in the Low category. Height range is proposed at 3-5 stories and the density range is proposed at 36-50 units per acre.
Medium – Density range would be unchanged from the Place Types Menu, but staff is suggesting a height range of 4-6 stories for land uses at this intensity. This height limit would support projects with densities of up to 99 units per acre and could better align with transitions between low and high density areas of the City. 462 of 615

High – Density range would be unchanged from the Place Types Menu, but staff is suggesting a height range of 6- 10 stories for land uses at this intensity. Since a maximum height was not identified on the Place Types Menu, staff suggests considering setting that limit at 10 stories, which would be sufficient to accommodate projects with up to 200 units per acre.

Table 4 shows the potential growth under the preferred land use scenario in 2040 within the Study Areas, based on the City Council’s direction on April 18, 2022. Although the City is largely “built out,” California law requires cities to plan for housing to accommodate a range of households and income levels. While the buildout projections are estimates, it can be reasonably assumed that the City will continue to grow, and that we will need to zone for that growth in order to meet our legal obligations to the State for the upcoming housing cycles within the General Plan’s 2040 growth horizon. The General Plan Update provides an opportunity to set the foundation for future growth that is logical, orderly, and achieves the community’s vision of San Mateo as a place that is “vibrant, livable, diverse, and healthy.” Although most of the future growth will occur within the 10 study areas, the General Plan applies to the whole City, and General Plan land use designations outside the 10 study areas will change if the designation density ranges change as proposed. Some growth outside the study areas is expected over the next 20 years, such as the San Mateo County Health Campus expansion project, underutilized sites with older buildings, and scattered residential infill sites throughout the city.
Table 4 – 2040 Preferred Scenario Buildout Within Study Areas (Potential Net New) Homes +21,960
Population +55,790
Jobs +15,255
It should also be noted that while the land use designations provide a height and density range, not all sites with that designation will be able to develop to the maximum height and density. The individual zoning designations for a site and neighborhood set specific heights and densities within the range set by the land use designation, but often set lower thresholds based on a variety of factors, including availability of infrastructure and environmental constraints.
Measure Y and the Preferred Land Use Scenario
Measure Y is a ballot measure that was passed by voters in November 2020. It retained existing height and density limits that were adopted under Measure P on new development and has a sunset date of 2030. Overall, the Measure Y height limit is set at up to 55 feet, with a density limit that allows up to 50 units per acre. The height limit allows for exceptions in certain locations and under certain circumstances, and State Density Bonus law allows projects to exceed both limits when certain percentages of affordable units are provided. Some of the land use designations in the Preferred Land Use Scenario include building heights and densities that exceed the limits set by Measure Y. Any GPU components that are inconsistent with Measure Y will require voter approval before they can take effect. Based on the Council’s confirmation of this approach, staff will move forward with incorporating this draft land use map into the GPU and schedule a future study session with the Council to discuss options for addressing elements of the GPU that go beyond the Measure Y height and density limits.

1501-1555 W. Hillsdale Blvd Land Use Request
The property owner of the site at 1501-1555 W. Hillsdale Blvd. submitted a letter requesting that the site’s land use designation be changed from Low Density Multi-Family to Residential Medium (Attachment 4). The site is located outside of the study areas, to the southwest of Study Area 6, and is shown on page 8 of Attachment 2. The site is approximately
4.4 acres in size and currently developed with 84 apartment units in two four-story apartment buildings – the Park View Terrace Apartments. Since this site is located outside of the study areas, the request could not be acted upon at the April City Council meeting. The site’s current land use designation of Low Density Multi-Family allows for a density of 9-17 units per acre, and the Residential Medium designation would allow for a density of 40-99 units per acre. The site is located within the Urban Wildland Interface (WUI) for wildfire risk and does have moderately sloping topography.
Does the Council support changing the land use designation to allow for increased density at this site per the owner’s request? Or should the current land use density be maintained? It should be noted that the full density in a land use category is not always the maximum density that can be developed on any specific site as a new development is still subject to compliance with Zoning Code site standards and density, as well as other development review requirements.
City Council Direction and Next Steps
This meeting is the final step in the Alternatives and Preferred Scenario phase of the General Plan Update. Staff is seeking Council confirmation of the Preferred Land Use Scenario, based on the actions from the April 18, 2022 meeting. In addition, Council confirmation of the draft land use categories is being requested. Confirmation of the draft land use map and land use designations will allow staff to proceed with the technical studies and evaluation that will form the basis of the Draft Environmental Impact Report (Draft EIR) analysis. However, it should be noted that both the land use map and the land use categories will still be in draft form, and will not be finalized until the City Council approves the final General Plan Update. For land use and circulation topics that are not directly related to the maps, such as allowed uses or circulation policies, Council can provide direction to staff and it will be addressed when the GPU goals, policies and actions are drafted as part of the next phase.
The next phase of the project includes preparation of the goals, policies and actions that go into each Element of the General Plan. The draft goals, policies and actions will be published this summer and presented to the public as part of the next round of community outreach and engagement. Community workshops and General Plan Subcommittee meetings will be held over the summer, with meetings before the Planning Commission and City Council in the fall. Preparation of the Draft EIR to analyze potential environmental impacts from the General Plan Update will be happening concurrently with this phase. Publication of the Draft General Plan is targeted for the first half of 2023.
BUDGET IMPACT:
There are no direct budgetary impacts to taking this action.
ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION:
Once the City Council confirms the preferred land use scenario, preparation of the Draft EIR for the GPU will commence.
Publication of the Draft EIR for public review is anticipated in the first half 2023 and will be finished prior to any formal decisions on the updated General Plan. The Draft EIR will have a 45-day public comment period once it is published.

RE: Housing Element Sites Inventory: Inclusion of Property located at 1501-1555 West Hillsdale Boulevard
Mr. Dahl,
I am writing on behalf of the landowners of the 4.4-acre parcel located at 1501-1555 West Hillsdale Boulevard (APN 041330070). The purpose of this letter is to formally request that the City of San Mateo identify in the site inventory as a site that has potential for redevelopment.
The property is currently developed with an 84-unit apartment complex. The landowners are not proposing to remove or alter the existing the apartment units; rather, the landowners are evaluating how best to use vacant and underutilized portions of the property to provide additional housing units.
The current land use designation of Low-Density Multi-Family. The landowners have requested a land use change to Medium -Density Residential land use designation as part of the City’s General Plan Update process. On April 18, 2022, the City Council expressed support for the requested change and directed staff to update the land use designation to Medium-Density Residential on the preferred land use map that will form the base of the General Plan Update.
The updated Medium -Density Residential land use designation allows for a density range of 40-99 units per acre. With this updated land use designation, the property could accommodate an additional 92 to 351 more housing units. With the existing topography and 4-story height limitation, it is most likely that the property could accommodate approximately 200 additional units.
We sincerely appreciate your time and consideration of this request. We hope that you agree with our assessment and that we can work together in the future to increase housing supply in San Mateo.

Under the preferred general plan, what are you going to do about the traffic that will be generated in and through the now planned “land locked” Hayward Park area?
Railroad tracks on the East and 4 plus story, high density buildings on the North, South and West with only two streets through Hayward Park: Palm Avenue and B Street.
Larry Pa erson promised that when Bay Meadows and the TOD overlay was approved, there would be no net increase in terms of traffic on Palm Ave and B St. He said that on the record.
But that is clearly not going to be the case when this GP update is implemented.
Did planning forget to look at these planning issues comprehensively? Or did they just look at various sec ons of the City, separately - Downtown, El Camino and 92/101, without looking at the cumula ve impacts that each of those 3 individual high density sec ons might have on one par cular neighborhood?
For the GP update, was there cumula ve traffic studies done on the impact of high density being built on the north, west and south sides of Hayward part or were they just done separately on the downtown, El Camino and Hayward Park TOD sec ons?
The problem is the cumula ve impact of each of those separate sec ons on Hayward Park itself. This issue happens nowhere else in the City under the preferred GP update.
I would appreciate your response as to the cumula ve traffic impact on Hayward Park, if the present preferred GP is passed.
A quick final note, it also seems that you’re giving up on solar access for a wide swath of Hayward Park residents along the El Camino Real.
Sincerely Yours,
Laurence Kinsella

Agenda Number: 21 Section Name: NEW BUSINESS Account Number: 10-1311 File ID: 22-6387 TO: City Council
FROM: Drew Corbett, City Manager
PREPARED BY: City Manager's Office
MEETING DATE: July 18, 2022
SUBJECT:
Ordinance Introduction – “Minimum Wage” Amendments
RECOMMENDATION:
Introduce an Ordinance to amend Municipal Code Chapter 5.92 “Minimum Wage” to add a Consumer Price Index percentage cap, a catch-up provision, and round the minimum wage to the nearest five cents.
BACKGROUND:
In effort to help close some of the income disparity within our community, in August 2016, the City Council adopted an ordinance to incrementally increase its local minimum wage from $10.00 per hour to $15.00 per hour by 2019. Every year after 2019, the local minimum wage has increased based on the regional Consumer Price Index (CPI). As of January 1, 2022, all employers within San Mateo must pay each employee who performs at least two hours of work per week, a minimum wage of $16.20 per hour.
Staff conducts a minimum wage informational update to City Council every few years and at the last informational meeting held on the June 20th City Council meeting, City Council directed staff to bring forward the following policy amendments to the minimum wage ordinance:
Set a CPI percentage cap of 3.5%.
Include a CPI catch-up provision to allow wages to realign with inflation in later years. Round the wage to the nearest five cents.
The CPI percentage cap of 3.5% per year helps strike a balance between increasing minimum wage but preventing small businesses from having to weather large increases in any given year. This year, the CPI is anticipated to be between 7% and 8% which would have resulted in a sizeable increase in the minimum wage for 2023.
The catch-up provision will ensure minimum wage is realigned with inflation overtime by applying any excess CPI percentage to subsequent years. The calculation will continue until the actual CPI and the cap-adjusted CPI are equivalent.
For example, if actual CPI were to be 7% in year 1, 2% in year 2, and 1.5% in year 3, the cap-adjusted CPI for the purpose of calculating the minimum wage would be 3.5% in year 1, 3.5% in year 2, and 3.5% in year 3. The following year the minimum wage would return to the actual CPI, provided it is below 3.5%.
Lastly, the City will follow the State of California and other neighboring jurisdictions’ policy to round the minimum wage once the CPI increase is applied. The City Council decided to round the minimum wage to the nearest five cents.
The ordinance requires two readings and will take effect and will be enforced at a minimum thirty (30) days after its adoption at the second reading. If approved, the second reading will take place at the City Council meeting on August 15, 518 of 615

2022, meaning the proposed ordinance would be effective by September 15, 2022. The existing ordinance requires staff to publish the new minimum wage for 2023 on October 1, 2023.
BUDGET IMPACT:
The proposed amendments to the minimum wage ordinance will not have any budget impact since the City hires above the minimum wage.
ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION:
This ordinance introduction is not a project subject to CEQA, because it is an organizational or administrative activity that will not result in direct or indirect physical changes in the environment. (CEQA Guidelines Section 15378(b)(5).)

DRAFT ORDINANCE
Amend Section 5.92.020 of the Municipal Code to Add a Consumer Price Index Percentage Cap, a Catch-up Provision, and to Round the Minimum Wage to the Nearest Five Cents.
WHEREAS, Staff presented an informational update on the City’s local minimum wage to the City Council;
WHEREAS, Staff received direction from the City Council to amend the City’s ordinance to align with local jurisdictions’ ordinances;
WHEREAS, the policy direction was to include a Consumer Price Index (CPI) cap to steadily increase the minimum wage without negatively impacting small businesses from large increases in any given year. In addition to the CPI cap, the City Council directed staff to create a catch-up provision and to round the wage to the nearest five cents.
Now, therefore, the Council of the City of San Mateo ordains as follows:
Section 1. Section 5.92.020 of the San Mateo Municipal Code is amended as follows:
5.92.020 Minimum Wage.
(a) Employers shall pay employees no less than the minimum wage for each hour worked within the geographic boundaries of the City.
(1) For employers which are not non-profit corporations, the minimum wage paid shall be as follows:
(2) Beginning January 1, 2017, the minimum wage shall be an hourly rate of $12.00. (3) Beginning January 1, 2018, the minimum wage shall be an hourly rate of $13.50. (b) Beginning January 1, 2019, the minimum wage shall be an hourly rate of $15.00. (1) For employers which are non-profit corporations, the minimum wage rate shall be as follows:
(2) Beginning January 1, 2017, the minimum wage shall be an hourly rate of $10.50. (3) Beginning January 1, 2018, the minimum wage shall be an hourly rate of $12.00. (4) Beginning January 1, 2019, the minimum wage shall be an hourly rate of $13.50. (c) Beginning January 1, 2020, the minimum wage shall be equal to that of the employers which are not non-profit corporations, and shall be subject to the Consumer Price Index increase as described in subsection (d), with the amount of the Minimum Wage increase rounded to the nearest five cents ($.05). 520 of 615
6 8
6 3
(d) Beginning on January 1, 2020, and each January thereafter, the minimum wage shall increase by an amount equal to the prior year's increase, if any, in the Consumer Price Index (CPI) for San Francisco-Oakland- San Jose as determined by the United States Department of Labor. The change shall be calculated by using the August to August change in the CPI to calculate the annual increase, up to 3.5%, as described in subsection (e). A decrease in the CPI shall not result in a decrease in the minimum wage. (e) Cost of living increases to the Minimum Wage based on the CPI shall not exceed 3.5% annually.
When the actual CPI exceeds the 3.5% cap, the percentage amount in excess of the cap shall be applied to the following year’s CPI increase, up to the 3.5% cap. Excess amounts shall be carried over from year to year until the actual CPI and the cap-adjusted CPI are equivalent. (f) An employee who is a learner, as defined by California Industrial Welfare Commission Order No. 4- 2001, shall be paid no less than 85% of the applicable minimum wage for the first 160 hours of employment.
Thereafter, the employee shall be paid the applicable minimum wage rate. (g) An employer may not deduct an amount from wages due an employee on account of any tip or gratuity, or credit the amount or any part thereof, of a tip or gratuity, against, or as a part of, the wages due the employee from the employer.
(h) Environmental Determination. In accordance with California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines, this ordinance introduction is not a project subject to CEQA, because it is an organizational or administrative activity that will not result in direct or indirect physical changes in the environment. (CEQA Guidelines Section 15378(b)(5).).
(i) Severability. In the event any section, clause or provision of this Ordinance shall be determined invalid or unconstitutional, such section, clause or provision shall be deemed severable and all other sections or portions hereof shall remain in full force and effect.
(j) Publication. This Ordinance shall be published in summary in a newspaper of general circulation, posted in the City Clerk's Office, and posted on the City's website, all in accord with Section 2.15 of the City Charter.
(k) Legislative History and Effective Date. This Ordinance was introduced on Clerk to complete., and adopted on Clerk to complete., and shall be effective 30 days after its adoption. 521 of 615

Agenda Number: 22 Section Name: NEW BUSINESS Account Number: 10-2021 File ID: 22-6393 TO: City Council
FROM: Drew Corbett, City Manager
PREPARED BY: Finance Department
MEETING DATE: July 18, 2022
SUBJECT:
Bay Meadows Community Facilities District – Covenant and Special Tax Levy 2022-23 RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt a resolution covenanting not to issue special tax bonds for Community Facilities District No. 2008-1 (Bay Meadows), City of San Mateo, County of San Mateo, State of California except refunding bonds, approving the fiscal year 2022-23 Special Tax Levy, and approving and authorizing related actions and documents.
BACKGROUND:
In June 2008, the City Council established the Community Facilities District No. 2008-1 (Bay Meadows), City of San Mateo, County of San Mateo, State of California (CFD) to levy special taxes (CFD Special Taxes) and issue bonds to pay for infrastructure necessary for or incidental to the Bay Meadows Project and to levy CFD Special Taxes for public infrastructure maintenance expenses. The maximum authorized bond amount established for the CFD was $92 million.
The City Council levies special taxes in the CFD pursuant to Ordinance No. 2012-1, which was adopted by the City Council on January 3, 2012, and which requires City Council approval of each fiscal year’s levy of CFD Special Taxes.
The City sold bonds in three separate series from 2012 through 2014 (Prior Bonds) in an aggregate initial principal amount of $86,275,000 and used the proceeds to finance public infrastructure in the CFD. As a result of the issuance of the Prior Bonds, there is $5,725,000 principal amount of “new money” bonds that may be issued for the CFD.
On June 30, 2022, the City issued its $72,345,000 City of San Mateo Community Facilities District No. 2008-1 (Bay Meadows) Special Tax Refunding Bonds, Series 2022 (2022 Refunding Bonds) to refund the Prior Bonds in order to generate debt service savings for the benefit of the property owners in the CFD.
The Amended and Restated Rate and Method of Apportionment for the CFD (RMA) provides that the City may not levy less than 100% of the Assigned Special Tax on Developed Property (as those terms are defined in the RMA) unless the City Council has covenanted that it will not issue any additional bonds for the CFD except refunding bonds. In other words, the City cannot pass to property owners in the CFD the debt service savings realized from the refunding transaction unless the City Council covenants not to issue any additional bonds for the CFD except refunding bonds.
In connection with the issuance of the 2022 Refunding Bonds, City staff worked with the Bay Meadows master developer, Wilson Meany, to confirm that all infrastructure improvements to be financed by the CFD have been made and that no additional CFD bonds will need to be issued in the future, except to refinance the outstanding bonds for savings.
Consequently, staff recommends that the Council adopt a resolution covenanting not to issue additional bonds for the CFD 531 of 615

4 5
except refunding bonds. This will allow the City to pass to property owners in the CFD the economic benefit of the refunding of the Prior Bonds.
In addition, staff has prepared the proposed fiscal year 2022-23 levy of CFD Special Taxes and recommends that the Council approve the proposed levy. The proposed levy includes the amount required to pay debt service on the 2022 Refunding Bonds, to pay the costs of administering the CFD, and to pay for authorized maintenance services.
BUDGET IMPACT:
Adoption of the resolution will provide for the levy of CFD Special Taxes for fiscal year 2022-23 and allow the City to pass to property owners in the CFD the economic benefit of the refunding of the Prior Bonds. The total fiscal year 2022-23 Special Tax Levy for CFD No. 2008-1 is $4,848,413.38.
ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION:
This special tax levy is not a project subject to CEQA, because it is a government fiscal activity which does not involve any commitment to any specific project which may result in a potentially significant physical impact on the environment. (CEQA Guidelines Section 15378(b)(4).)

Dear Mayor Bonilla and City Council,
I write in support of the resolution covenanting not to issue special tax bonds for Bay Meadows Community Facilities District. This will allow the City to pass to property owners in the district the significant economic benefit of the refunding of the prior bonds.
This

Thanks to the City staff for their timely work on this to provide the much-needed tax reduction this year.

Dear Mayor Bonilla and City Council,
This is Yige Liu, and I am a resident at Bay Meadows San Mateo.

This will allow the City to pass to property owners in the district the significant economic benefit of the refunding of the prior bonds.This will save residents of the city's most heavily taxed neighborhood many hundreds of dollars per home per year.
Thanks to the City staff for their timely work on this to provide the much-needed tax reduction this year.
Best regards,
Yige

Dear Mayor Bonilla and City Council,
I write in support of the resolution covenanting not to issue special tax bonds for Bay Meadows Community Facilities District.
This will allow the City to pass to property owners in the district the significant economic benefit of the refunding of the prior bonds. This will save residents of the city’s most heavily taxed neighborhood many hundreds of dollars per home per year.
Thanks to the City staff for their timely work on this to provide the much-needed tax reduction this year.
Best regards,
Saibal Bhattacharya

Agenda Number: 23 Section Name: NEW BUSINESS Account Number: 10-2011 File ID: 22-6438 TO: City Council
FROM: Drew Corbett, City Manager
PREPARED BY: Finance Department
MEETING DATE: July 18, 2022
SUBJECT:
Public Employee Pension Reform Act 180 Day Waiting Period Waiver Request – Finance Department RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt a Resolution finding the nature of employment for retired annuitant Dr. Bhavna Chaudhary is necessary to fill a critically needed position before 180 days have passed pursuant to California Government Code section 7522.56.
BACKGROUND:
Assembly Bill 340, the Public Employee Pension Reform Act of 2013 also known as PEPRA, was signed into law on September 12, 2012 and went into effect on January 1, 2013. PEPRA created Government Code Section 7522.56, which requires public agency retirees to wait 180 days after retirement before returning to work for a public agency. This waiting period may be waived if the City Council determines the nature of employment is necessary to fill a critically needed position before 180 days have passed. Therefore, this request is before Council for approval at this time.
Dr. Bhavna Chaudhary retired as Finance Manager with the City of Livermore on April 22, 2022, capping off a long and dedicated career in municipal finance. Dr. Chaudhary possesses an inactive certified public accountant (CPA) license. Her experience includes many years of leading the year-end audit, preparation of the annual comprehensive financial report, and all other full-cycle accounting tasks and responsibilities.
Implementation of the enterprise resource planning (ERP) system began in March 2022. In order to ensure the successful and timely implementation of the ERP, the Finance Department has backfilled with additional staffing resources from a variety of sources, including other retired annuitants, a staffing firm, and a certified public accounting firm. The variety of staffing resources reflects the extremely high demand for and resultant limited availability of experienced and qualified municipal finance professionals in the current labor market.
The services needed from Dr. Chaudhary include monthly bank reconciliation and various tasks related to the year-end close of fiscal year 2021-22. It is anticipated that these tasks will be completed by November 30, 2022, and Dr. Chaudhary would work no more than 20 hours per week. Based on the foregoing, staff recommends a finding that the nature of Dr.
Chaudhary’s appointment is necessary to fill a critically needed position before 180 days have passed.
BUDGET IMPACT:
Similar to the other staff backfill services, the funding source for the cost of Dr. Chaudhary’s services will be from staff vacancy savings, so no additional budget appropriations are needed. 607 of 615

WHEREAS, Dr. Chaudhary possesses an inactive certified public accountant (CPA) license and has many years of experience in leading full-cycle accounting tasks for municipal governments; and WHEREAS, the Finance Department began implementation of the new enterprise resource planning (ERP) system in March 2022, and it is essential for the successful and timely implementation of the ERP system for Dr. Chaudhary to provide her accounting expertise to support the year-end audit process so that City staff can focus on the ERP implementation; and
WHEREAS, the maximum hourly rate for the Accounting Manager per diem position is $72.36 per hour, and the minimum hourly rate is $60.68; and
WHEREAS the hourly rate paid to Bhavna Chaudhary will be $72.36; and WHEREAS, Bhavna Chaudhary has not and will not receive any other benefit, incentive, compensation in lieu of benefit or other form of compensation in addition to this hourly pay rate.
