A Transportation Demand Management (TDM) Plan is a long-term management strategy for an organization or site that seeks to deliver sustainable transportation objectives. It is articulated in a document that is regularly reviewed by the implementing organization. It involves identifying an appropriate package of measures aimed at promoting sustainable travel, with an emphasis on reducing reliance on single occupancy car journeys and vehicle miles traveled (VMT). It can also assist in meeting other objectives such as increasing accessibility as well as reducing congestion, greenhouse gas and noise pollution.
This TDM Plan was produced on behalf of the City of San Mateo for the 222 E. 4th Ave. project site, which is a planned mixed-used property owned by Lane Partners and developed by KSH Architects.
Project Description
The project site is a city block bounded by E. 4th Avenue to the northwest, S. B Street to the northeast, E. 5th Avenue to the southeast, and S. Ellsworth Avenue to the southwest. The project site is currently a grocery store spanning a whole city block. The project proposes demolishing the existing building at 222 E. 4th Avenue to construct a new 5-story mixed use building. The project includes:
1. 8 one-bedroom and 2 studio units (total of 10 units)
2. 104,554 sq. ft of office space
3. 17,658 sq. ft of retail space
4. 221 physical parking spaces, in a 2-level subterranean garage and 12,392 sq. ft of covered parking area.
5. 1,455 sq. ft. open space
6. 1,515 sq. ft. common usable open space.
The project site is zoned as CBD/R – Central Business District with Residential Mixed-Use Overlay.
As shown in Figure 1, the lots to the north and south are also zoned as CBD/R. The lots towards the northwest are zoned as CBD – Central Business. The lot to the southwest is zoned as R5 – Multiple Family Dwellings (High Density). There is a large area zoned as Open Space to the southwest of the project site.

Commute Outlook
Census Reporter data from 2019 indicates that majority (72%) of people that live within Census Tract 6063 drive alone to work. The data also reports that 21% of the population use sustainable modes of transportation such as public transit, carpooling and walking to commute to work, while 5% of the population work from home. Of those that commute to work, the mean travel time is
27.6 minutes. Of note, commuting patterns have been impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic and may be in flux for some time as businesses gradually adjust their travel patterns. The postpandemic reality might result in new commuting patterns as more organizations implement hybrid and flexible working patterns.

A site assessment was conducted as part of the TDM Plan development process. The site assessment included a description of the site’s geography and road network, pedestrian and bicycle infrastructure, transit services, nearby attractions, and existing TDM services. For the complete assessment, please refer to the 222 E 4th Avenue Background Assessment memo in Exhibit B. Key findings from the site assessment are as follows:
Site Geography and Road Network
The project site is located on a city block which currently consists of Draeger’s Market, a grocery store. The current structure will be demolished. The block is situated between E. 5th Ave. to the south, E. 4th Ave. to the north, S. Ellsworth Avenue to the West, and S. B Street to the east.
The site is adjacent to E. 4th Avenue, a city-maintained street that feeds directly into two highways: U.S. Highway 101 to the east and the California State Route 82 (El Camino Real) to the west.
• U.S. Highway 101 is a major federal highway that runs north-south along the entire west coast. It connects several major cities including San Francisco, Los Angeles, and San Jose • Route 82 connects to Interstate-880 (I-880) in San Jose and Interstate-280 (I-280) in San Francisco
Both the U.S. Highway 101 and Route 82 provide easy access to California State Route 92, which runs east-west and runs over the San Mateo Bridge. This bridge bypasses the San Francisco Bay to connect San Mateo to the East Bay.

For nearby bicycle amenities, BikeLink operates multiple on-demand bike lockers located at the nearby San Mateo Caltrain Station. BikeLink allows cyclists to securely store their bike in secure lockers using a stored-value card that can be purchased online or at nearby vendors. There are 24 lockers at the San Mateo Caltrain Station. Additionally, there are two free-to-use public bike repair stations are located less than 0.5-mile of the project site. These stations are located at the San Mateo Public Library and the San Mateo Caltrain Station.
Planned Bicycle Projects
The 2020 Bicycle Master Plan was adopted by the San Mateo City Council on April 6, 2020 and serves as a blueprint for expanding and improving the San Mateo bicycle and mobility network in the coming years. The Plan includes two project relevant to the project site:
• 3
rd Avenue has proposed improvements to build a separated bike lane. This is a high priority project.
• Bicycle facilities to continue along 5th Avenue, including a Class II bicycle lane from Virginia Avenue to El Camino Real. This is the 16th highest priority project in the 2020 Bicycle Master Plan.
Transit Services
The project site is 0.3 miles from the Caltrain station and is served by two San Mateo County Transit District (SamTrans) routes.

Commute.org Incentives
Commmute.org is the San Mateo County Transportation Demand Management Agency. Their resources are available to all residents and employees within San Mateo County. The residents and employees of the project site will have access to the TDM resources provide for commutes within the County and in the surrounding areas. They provide the following services:
• Try Transit Incentives: Commute.org provides a free “Try Transit” program that allows individuals to request free tickets for the transit option that works best for them. • Carpool Incentives: Commuters who use Waze carpool or Scoop are eligible to earn gift cards worth up to $100.
• Vanpool Incentives: Drivers of a new vanpool can earn a $500 reward, and vanpool riders can be reimbursed $100/month of their costs for up to three months. • Bike Education: Free bike safety workshops and marketing materials on biking are available to residents and commuters. These workshops are scheduled upon request and are available to employers and other development sites, including residential properties within San Mateo County.
• Bike Incentives: Commute.org currently provides commuters who live or work in San Mateo County with incentives worth between $25 to $200 for biking to work. To participate in the program, bike commuters must track their work commutes using the Strava app. The rides are then recorded in the STAR platform, Commute.org’s incentive delivery platform, where commuters can access their incentives.

This chapter outlines the TDM strategies identified for the 222 E. 4th Avenue site. The strategies in this section are effective and appropriate based on the project’s size, location, and land use. The narrative below provides guidelines for implementation, cost estimates, expected timelines, and indicates the anticipated responsible party for each recommended measure. It is understood that the property management team will be the ‘responsible party’ for most TDM measures outlined below.
Each strategy’s description also estimates the number of vehicle miles traveled and percentage of trips expected to be reduced through its implementation. It is important to note that many of the TDM strategies in this section are scalable and can easily be expanded by increasing the number of resources allocated.
The trip generation numbers from the traffic impact assessment consider visitor trips to the supermarket in addition to employees and residents at site. However, the project TDM measures are geared primarily to residents and employees as these audiences are more likely to utilize TDM measures to reduce trip. Given this, the percentage of daily vehicle trips reduced by each strategy has been calculated considering both potential audiences. • Scenario 1: Considering a total of 2,904 daily trips which includes visitor trips to the supermarket, in addition to employee and resident trips. • Scenario 2: Considering a total of 1,083 daily trips attributed to the office and housing uses only, which includes an estimation of 70 daily trips for 35 retail employees. ITE estimates about 2 employees per 1,000 sq.ft. for a supermarket (ITE 850). The project is expected to have 17,658 sq. ft. of retail space.

Transportation Management Association (TMA) Membership
The Sustainable Streets Plan recommends new developments within the Downtown Area Plan boundaries to be a part of a future Transportation Management Association (TMA). Membership with the TMA does not have a direct impact on the reduction of trips and VMT reduction. It is, however, a platform to show how developments will meet their TDM requirements and market TDM services and programs. The TMA would serve as a coordinating body to developments within the Rail Corridor and the Downtown Area Plan boundaries.
Once a TMA is formed, the development in the future will be required to be a TMA member.

TDM Coordinator
An on-site TDM coordinator would act as a liaison between the developer, City, employees, and the residents. The TDM coordinator would help develop, implement, and report on the various TDM strategies. This person would be responsible for coordinating and marketing the selected TDM strategies as well as maintaining working relationships with the City and nearby developments.
Implementation Guidelines:
Assign the role of TDM Coordinator to an individual on the property management team to plan and implement the TDM program. Allocate at least 5 hours per month for the TDM Coordinator to spend on the following activities:
• Annual Monitoring: Survey the residents and employees and compile a monitoring report for submission to the City of San Mateo annually.
• Commute Assistance: Provide route planning and transit itineraries for employees and residents who wish to explore their transportation options. • TDM Program Coordination and Outreach: Organize and promote sustainable travel options through building communications such as emails, bulletin boards, and social media. Specific tasks include:
- Organize and promote the trip reduction and air quality strategies detailed in the following sections.
- Organize and promote campaigns and challenges that encourage trip reduction - Promote the sustainable transportation options available to the residents and employees.

It is important that the TDM program be implemented as the site becomes occupied and when office, retail, and apartment units eventually begin to turn over. It must also be updated as needs change and transportation options and technology evolve. Therefore, the TDM Plan should become ‘institutionalized’ as part of the property’s leasing process to ensure the program remains in place and new residents and employees are aware of its existence.
Implementation Guidelines:
Describe the TDM infrastructure, amenities, and programs available to employers and residents and how they will be made available to the tenants in the lease documents.
Estimated timeframe During the drafting of lease language and ongoing Estimated cost $0 – it is likely that this cost will already be undertaken by the property management in order to establish the details of the lease agreement, so including TDM in this effort will likely come at no additional cost.

New Resident and Employee Packets
Individuals are most likely to make a change in their transportation behavior alongside other life changes. This means that providing new residents and employees with a packet that offers them information about all their transportation options can increase the likelihood for them to choose options other than driving alone.
New residents and employees would be provided with welcome packets that include a Clipper Card with stored value, customized transportation information about nearby transit routes, bus stops, bike maps, amenities, and routes, and other TDM initiatives undertaken by the property.
The welcome packets should also include the contact information of the property’s TDM 1137 of 1252
222 E 4th Avenue TDM Plan | TDM Plan

Coordinator. Figure 9 offers an example of a welcome packet distributed to new residents in Santa Monica, CA.
Implementation Guidelines:
Design a New Resident and Employee Packet for the property that provides information on all transportation modes available as well as services that may make choosing sustainable travel easier. The TDM Coordinator can work directly with Commute.org, who can assist the property in purchasing Clipper Cards and provide supportive materials, commuter incentives and advice. The packet should include:
• A Clipper Card with stored value ($10 to $20 would be ideal) • A map depicting a 10- and 20-minute walk and bicycle radius • Information about the transit options available (SamTrans, Caltrain, and BART) and how to connect to them, including Park and Ride options
• Information about all the transportation related amenities offered by the property • Information about Commute.org services and resources
• Information about Guaranteed Ride Home and how to register • Information about bike routes and amenities in the City of San Mateo Parking and Transportation Planning webpage (https://www.cityofsanmateo.org/2125/ParkingTransportation) Estimated timeframe Pre-occupancy, ongoing
Estimated cost $3,000 to develop packet, then up to $3 per packet to print and distribute

Multimodal Wayfinding Signage
The developer would provide multimodal
wayfinding signage at entry and exit points
of the property. Wayfinding can help
people visualize how close sustainable
travel options are and in which direction,
as well as familiarize them with nearby
modes. Examples of wayfinding window
decals used in the City of Santa Monica are
shown in Figure 10.
Implementation Guidelines:
Using consistent and legible design
guidelines, create and post a network of
pedestrian-scale signage at key entry and
exit points of the property. The signs
should point users to key destinations and give them estimates for how far away they are by walking and/or biking. For example -
• 6 min walk to Downtown San Mateo Caltrain Station
• 1 min walk to E. 4
th Avenue & S. Ellsworth Avenue
• 5 min walk to El Camino Real & E. 5th Ave
Be sure to evaluate the signage regularly to take into consideration any infrastructural or service changes that may impact options.

In order to encourage individuals to choose sustainable travel options, it is critical to provide them with the information needed to do so. Having a communications plan that outlines what information to share and how would set clear expectations for the TDM Coordinator.
Communicating Transportation Information:
• Website - Having all transportation-related information and resources available in one virtual location makes it easy and convenient for residents and employees to learn about their travel options. The webpage should provide information about relevant special offers and programs that are offered from outside agencies (such as the Peninsula Clean Energy e-bike subsidy while there is funding), nearby transit routes and schedules, bike and pedestrian paths, services offered by Commute.org and other amenities. This is especially helpful for residents new to the neighborhood or employees coming from outside of the City who are unaware of the transportation options available to them.
• Bulletin Boards – Bulletin boards should be set up in high-traffic areas and include TDM messaging to inform and update residents, visitors, and employees of sustainable travel options, upcoming events, and activities. Commute.org sends out regularly scheduled newsletters that are a good reference for up-to-date transportation information. Each newsletter would advertise different TDM measures and events such as commuter promotions and incentives and highlight resources such as 511 and Commute.org. • Building Social Media Channels (Facebook, Instagram, etc.) – The property manager could promote transportation options and updates via the tenant portal website and social media channels such as Facebook, Instagram and Nextdoor.
• Realtime Transportation Information- Transportation screens at the lobby and elevators that provide real-time transit departures and arrivals to visitors to 222 E 4th Avenue.
Figure 11 Example Transportation Screen
Transportation Options to Promote:
• All TDM incentives and services offered by the property to residents, visitors, and employees, such as bike parking.
• Resources for trip planning, including Transit app, Google Maps or Citymapper offer excellent smartphone-based trip planning options.
• A link to Commute.org with information about the resources available to residents and employees, especially information regarding the mode-specific resources and subsidies offered.
• Information about the Guaranteed Ride Home (GRH) or Emergency Ride Home (ERH) programs offered by the surrounding counties (e.g., Commute.org's GRH program for 1140 of 1252
222 E 4th Avenue TDM Plan | TDM Plan

commuters who work in San Mateo County, Alameda County's GRH program, Marin County’s ERH program, etc.). If an unforeseen emergency occurs, employees that use a sustainable transportation mode are eligible for reimbursement of the cost of their trip home. • Information about Safe Routes to School programs
• Locally accessible transit information
– Caltrain, including Information about bikes on board, secure bike parking, and Park and Ride lots and at the Hayward Park, Hillsdale, and Belmont stations • Information about biking, including links to local bike maps and cycling resources Implementation Guidelines
Create a webpage that lives on or is linked from the property’s tenant facing website and includes all the above listed information, at a minimum, in addition create a social media presence.
Commute.org offers a comprehensive transportation resources website free of charge that provides much of the above information.
Develop a regular schedule for newsletters and social media posts and promote relevant transportation information regularly through employee and resident bulletin boards. The social media posts can be utilized for a wider audience that includes not just residents and employees but also retail visitors.

Preferential Carpool and Vanpool Parking
Reserving space for carpools and vanpools encourages shared travel be ensuring those riders are able to find guaranteed parking easily. If signed in a manner that stands out, it may also generate interest in carpooling and vanpooling from solo drivers.
Implementation Guidelines
Designate at least ten on-site spaces for employees who carpool and vanpool to their worksites.
The spaces should be located close to an entrance, and demarcated spaces with signage and/or paint, in line with other signage within the parking facility. While it is not required that property management undertake strong enforcement efforts such as monitoring the spaces on a daily basis and ticketing or towing non-compliant vehicles, they should be prepared to remind single drivers that the spaces are reserved for higher occupancy vehicles.

In addition to the TDM measures identified in the previous Chapter, the following strategies would help to support further vehicle trip and VMT reduction for travel to and from the project site. They are offered as optional recommendations as they are measures that are not required to meet the VMT reduction requirement.
Bike Education / Workshops
Encouraging bike ridership is one of the most effective ways of reducing short range trips by car.
About 59.4% of vehicle trips in the United States were less than six miles in 2017.2The property could partner with local bike advocacy groups, bike shops or Commute.org to host bike safety workshops to educate residents and employees on the basics of biking and share educational resources such as maps of nearby bike amenities (such as BikeLink lockers at Caltrain stations).
Given the size of the project site, if demand for full workshops doesn’t exist, it may be more appropriate to support residents and employees in one-on-one support from bike shops.
Implementation Guidelines:
Partner with Commute.org or a local bike advocacy organization to organize a bicycle safety training webinar or workshop annually. Commute.org offers free bike training workshops to employers and residential properties within San Mateo County. • Promote the workshop or webinar along with additional resources on the property’s dedicated website, resident and employee bulletin board, and social media. Some additional resources to share with residents and employees include:
- Bike Safety and Rules of the Road
- Family Biking - How to Bike Safely with Adults and Kids of Any Age - Biking Maps and Trails
Estimated timeframe 75% occupancy, annually
Estimated cost $500

Contests, promotions, and prizes can be used as a strategy to provide awareness about transportation options available to employees, residents, and visitors. This can be in the form of short-term or long-term commute challenges and events that encourage the use of a new modes of commuting.
Implementation Guidelines
Promote monthly or quarterly commute challenges that encourage individuals to try new modes of transportation, promotion can be done via the TDM communication’s webpage, information boards and TDM coordinator. As incentives, include prizes in the form of gift cards, rewards points and transit subsidies.

Carshare
The developer could partner with an existing carshare company such as Zipcar, Envoy, or Car2Go to provide those who do not own a vehicle the ability to use a car when needed. Providing occasional access to a vehicle, coupled with incentives to reduce parking needs, can encourage households and employees to forgo vehicle ownership (studies show increased car access decreases use of other modes such as transit)3.
Implementation Guidelines:
Partner with a shared vehicle provider to provide residents and employees access to a car when needed. The carshare benefit can be made available to other external users. However, each participating household and employee at 222 E. 4th Avenue can be provided with annual credits or subscription discounts.

If implemented correctly and consistently, the TDM program outlined within chapters Project TDM Measures and Optional TDM Measures is forecasted to result in a daily VMT reduction of between 2,768 (low estimate) to 3.183 (high estimate) and a reduction of 1071 to 1234 kilograms of carbon dioxide every day.
VMT Reduction Calculations
Estimated VMT and vehicle trip reduction calculations were made using the TDM Return on Investment (ROI) Calculator, a tool owned by Mobility Lab and developed by university and governmental partners. The TDM ROI Calculator helps practitioners and policy makers understand the benefits of their investment in TDM strategies and programs by calculating estimated vehicle trips, VMT, hours of congestion delay, and emissions reduced. More information about the TDM ROI Calculator and assumptions made to calculate estimated impacts are included in Exhibit A.

Annual monitoring and reporting are required from the site by the City of San Mateo. Ongoing monitoring will help the project site track the impact of their TDM programs as well as provide a regular schedule for evaluating programming and identifying gaps and opportunities. The results will help the building adjust programs to better meet the needs of their residents and employees.
Annual Survey
The City of San Mateo requires an annual letter to the Public Works Director or designee that outlines the TDM measures implemented and information from a mode split survey.
To comply with City requirements, the TDM Coordinator will conduct an annual resident and employee survey to understand commute patterns and the modes by which they commute.
During the first year of occupancy, an initial survey should be conducted to establish a baseline to which future surveys will be compared.
The baseline survey and the subsequent annual surveys should ask questions to understand how residents and employees travel for different types of trips and understand barriers to sustainable travel. To gain insight into the resident’s and employee’s travel characteristics and attitudes, the survey should identify the following key topics:
• Mode of travel by trip purpose (work, school, leisure, etc.) • Work location
• Business travel requirements, if applicable
• Daycare or school pick-up/drop-off location, if applicable • Flexible working arrangements, if applicable
• Improvements to the main mode of travel
• Current barriers to walking/biking
• Ideas for how the property could encourage walking, biking, carpooling and transit • Car ownership
• Level of awareness of the property’s TDM amenities
• Feedback on amenities and services currently available to the residents and employees • Other services or amenities that are not currently offered that would encourage residents and employees to try a different mode of travel
The survey results allow the property to not only track program progress but also identify ways to adjust the program and further shift travel behavior towards more sustainable modes (transit, bike, walk and carpool) over time. The TDM Coordinator could use the data to understand which amenities are popular and should remain, which are not effective and should be adjusted, and identify additional measures to implement at their site. 6 Monitoring

A. TDM ROI Calculator
The Transportation Demand Management (TDM) Return on Investment-(ROI) Calculator is a tool owned by Mobility Lab, an Arlington County, Virginia funded transportation behavior and policy research center. It was developed in partnership with university and governmental partners, with funding from the Federal Highway Administration, to provide TDM program staff, transportation planners, and others involved in implementing TDM services a quantifiable way to estimate the ROI for TDM services.
According to the TDM ROI Calculator User Manual, the model calculates impacts for individual TDM services then combines the individual impacts, with discounts to account for overlap between services, to determine the cumulative impact of all services.4 The calculator performs the following functions:
• Estimates TDM travel impacts, defined as reductions in commute vehicle trips and vehicle miles travelled (VMT), from a user-defined package of TDM services • Converts vehicle trip and VMT reductions into societal benefits, such as reduction in hours of travel time delay and gallons of gasoline saved
• Calculates the societal cost savings from each benefit and the overall cost saving from all benefits combined
• Compares the societal cost saving to the TDM program "investment" cost to estimate ROI As most TDM programs do not have detailed VMT and trip reduction data, the ROI Calculator instead asks for user participation numbers and program costs as the inputs for its calculations.
The model then uses four calculation factors derived from TDM service user surveys along with pre-set regional inputs and national environmental data to estimate the number of participants who will shift behavior and the number of daily vehicle trips, VMT and hours of congestion that their behavior shift will reduce. If more detailed regional and national data are known, they can be input to override the preset data used for calculation.
The inputs used for calculating the VMT and vehicle trip reductions for the 222 E 4th Avenue TDM Plan are outlined below so that the results can be duplicated with ease. 4 Mobility Lab.(2019).TDM ROI Calculator User Manual Retrieved from https://mobilitylab.org/calculators/ 1151 of 1252

B. 222 E 4th Avenue Site Assessment
222 E. 4th Avenue Project Background Assessment Memorandum Introduction
The City of San Mateo has commissioned Steer to develop a Transportation Demand Management (TDM) Plan for the 222 E. 4th Avenue project site to reduce the ceiling of potential congestion and trips generated by the project. The project is a proposed redevelopment of Draeger’s Market at 222 E. 4th Avenue into a single building that would consist of approximately 104,722 sq. ft of office space, 17,658 sq. ft of retail space for a grocer, and 8,971 sq. ft of residential space developed by Lane Partners (referred to as “the developer”).
The TDM Plan development begins with a thorough assessment of the site, including existing and planned conditions. A combination of desktop-based research and analysis, review of available site plans and renderings, and study of planned developments was utilized in our understanding of the site conditions.
The document details the following aspects of the site and project:
• Project Description
• Physical Attributes
– Site Geography and Road Network
– Pedestrian and Bicycle Infrastructure
– Transit Services
• Nearby Attractions
• Available TDM Services
• Travel Trends
• TOD Requirements (if applicable)

Project Description
The project site is a city block bounded by E. 4th Avenue to the northwest, S. B Street to the northeast, E. 5th Avenue to the southeast, and S. Ellsworth Avenue to the southwest. The project site is currently a grocery store spanning a whole city block. The project proposes demolishing the existing building at 222 E. 4th Avenue to construct a new 5-story mixed used building. The project includes:
1. 8 one-bedroom and 2 studio units (total of 10 units)
2. 104,722 sq. ft of office space
3. 17,658 sq. ft of retail space
4. 239 physical parking spaces as well as 50-60 valet parking spaces, in a 2-level subterranean garage and 12,392 sq. ft of covered parking area.
5. 2,070 sq. ft community open space
6. 1,450 sq. ft outdoor dining space
The project site is zoned as CBD/R – Central Business Residential. As shown in Figure 1, the lots to the north and south are also zoned as CBD/R. The lots towards the northwest are zoned as CBD – Central Business. The lot to the southwest is zoned as R5 – Multiple Family Dwellings (High Density). There is a large area zoned as Open Space to the southwest of the project site.

Physical Attributes
Site Geography and Road Network
The project site is located on a city block which currently consists of Draeger’s Market, a grocery store. The current structure will be demolished. The block is situated between E. 5th Ave. to the south, E. 4th Ave. to the north, S. Ellsworth Avenue to the West, and S. B Street to the east.
The site is adjacent to E. 4th Avenue, a county-maintained street that feeds directly into two highways: U.S. Highway 101 to the east and the California State Route 82 (El Camino Real) to the west.
• U.S. Highway 101 is a major federal highway that runs north-south along the entire west coast. It connects several major cities including San Francisco, Los Angeles, and San Jose • Route 82 connects to Interstate-880 (I-880) in San Jose and Interstate-280 (I-280) in San Francisco
Both the U.S. Highway 101 and Route 82 provide easy access to California State Route 92, which runs east west and runs over the San Mateo Bridge. This bridge bypasses the San Francisco Bay to connect San Mateo to the East Bay.

The site’s topography and road access, as well as proximity to other nearby services make this area an appealing pedestrian and cyclist environment. The walkability website Walkscore.com gives the site a 99 out of 100 for walking, “Walker’s Paradise – Daily errands do not require a car.” The walk shed for the project area is seen in Figure 4.
Currently B Street and 5th Avenue both serve as bike routes to the project site. Both bike routes are Class III. The bike route on 5th Avenue connects to the bicycle network to the north and south of the project site. As per recent San Mateo City Council direction, bike facilities along B Street from 5th Avenue to Baldwin Avenue have been removed from the 2020 Bicycle Master Plan.

Schools and Childcare
About seventeen percent (17%) of the population located in the census tract (residential area) are under the age of 18, with the median age and average household size being 39.2 and 2.2, respectively, according to the American Communities Survey (ACS) 2019. This suggests that this region is populated with young families that may add school or childcare trips into their daily schedule. Since school drop-offs and pickups can lead to significant traffic and congestion twice daily, the TDM Plan will explore synergies with existing Safe Routes to School (SRTS) programs and related trip reduction strategies.
Childcare Centers
There are several childcare and Preschool centers located within the vicinity (2 miles) of the project location. Table 6 lists the childcare centers located close to the project site.

San Mateo Safe Routes to School
San Mateo County Safe Routes to School (SRTS) is a
program of San Mateo County that encourages and
enables school-age children to walk and bike to
school. SRTS is intended to reduce school-travel
related congestion and emissions around schools, as
well as improve health and wellness through
physical activity. The program is led and
implemented by volunteers, often parents and PTA
members.
The project site is within the San Mateo-Foster
School district and has been zoned for Sunnybrae
Elementary School and Borel Middle School. These
schools are included in the SRTS program. Figure 7
shows the scope of the Safe Routes to School
program for Borel Middle School within a half-mile
radius, including suggested walking and biking
routes.

Commute Outlook
Census Reporter data from 2019 indicates that majority (72%) of people that live within Census Tract 6063 drive alone to work. The data also reports that 21% of the population use sustainable modes of transportation such as public transit, carpooling and walking to commute to work, while 5% of the population work from home. Of those that commute to work, the mean travel time is
27.6 minutes. Of note, commuting patterns have been impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic and may be in flux for some time as businesses gradually adjust their travel patterns. The postpandemic reality might result in new commuting patterns as more organizations implement hybrid and flexible working patterns.

TOD Requirements
Since the project site is not zoned as TOD, this policy does not apply.
Next Steps
Based on the information gleaned from the Background Assessment, our team will develop a Draft TDM Plan. The TDM Plan will include a list of recommended and optional TDM Strategies for the project site, and will touch on the following types of strategies:
• Site elements
• Education and incentives
• Service provision
• Monitoring and reporting
Based on comments from the City of San Mateo we will edit and submit a finalized TDM Plan and will work with the City to ensure it is approved.

Dear City council members,
I understand the need for more housing downtown but with all the people moving into the downtown area, where Do you think all these people will get their groceries if there is no large grocery store downtown?
Not everyone will eat out all the time and with the prices of restaurants these days who can afford to eat in them regularly. The cost of living is so high we need another affordable grocery store downtown to shop at. You want to promote shopping locally but the variety of stores downtown are dwindling and our town is becoming sad and un-interesting .
The traffic will be a nightmare All those living downtown have to drive to a grocery store in another town.
The logical solution is to place a grocery store back into the site where Draegers was! I’m loosing faith in this town

I would like to voice my concern that the space allocated for a grocery store is inadequate for a full service store. Downtown SM needs a grocery store that offers the full spectrum of food choices, not a quick shop like 7-11. If the developer has put together a plan that does not allow for that, send them back to the drawing board.

I am a supporter of Draegers Market and urge the city council to move to save it. It’s the only reason I go to downtown San Mateo. There’s nothing else there.
I’d rather go to Burlingame Avenue or Laurel in San Carlos. They offer more of a variety of shops and restaurants than San Mateo.

Dear Council Members and Planning Commissioners,
It was brought to my attention that a community member posted a false update on our Draeger’s project on the Nextdoor website yesterday. Here is a link to the post: Draeger's Project Post (also pasted below in case you can’t access nextdoor)
In the post he claims that the project will no longer be providing space for a future grocery store “due to city concerns about the loading dock required for such a store.” The purpose of my email here is to assure you all that this is not true. Our plan, which has remained consistent from the outset, is to design the ground floor retail space to accommodate a future grocery store tenant as we recognize how critical it is to the downtown community to have access to a walkable/bikeable grocery store, not to mention the community at large which will benefit from fewer cars on the road. In fact, the goal is to bring Draeger’s back into the new project and we are currently discussing this scenario with them now. I’m confident that if I can provide Richard Draeger with some predictability around project approvals/construction timing, etc. that we can come to an agreement on a new lease.
I’m meeting with the individual that posted the nextdoor update today and I will walk him through our plans for the project. In addition, our team continues to engage the community on this project including the Gramercy residents and other key stakeholders. In fact, if you are able to forward any emails or messages you’ve received on this issue I will reach out to each person individually and offer to meet for coffee to talk about the project.
Finally, I’d encourage folks to visit our project website here: https://courbanize.com/projects/222‐east‐4th‐ ave/information
Through this site we post project updates and provide a platform for community feedback. To date, we have over 380 comments from community members.
Should you have any questions about the project please don’t hesitate to reach out to me directly via email or on my cell (We are finally breaking ground on our 180 3rd Ave project [formerly Aaron Brothers] on the corner of 3rd and Ellsworth later this month and wanted to make you all aware as well) Regards,

The loss of the current Draegers market will be a tragedy for downtown San Mateo, its residents, and visitors if it is not replaced with a full size grocery store, preferably one as service oriented and unique as Draegers.
Draegers is a destination for my family and a reason we will go downtown and then go to other stores or businesses. But other families and individuals that live or will live (after more housing is added), having a 1184 of 1252

Please make sure that this project is not a loss of a community resource by keeping a full size grocery store required for its realization.

Dear Council Members,
Please, please, please make sure that San Mateo keeps a grocery store downtown. All the people who will be moving into the new housing units being constructed shouldn't have to drive to a grocery store. I now have 3 friends who are older and have bought condos around downtown. Many reasons were cited for their decision to move out of single‐family houses—proximity to stores, restaurants, bus stops, the train, Central Park, the library, and access to groceries. They all shop at Dean's, as do I when I need to go to the bank or do other shopping. We need to keep a full grocery store as well as other small stores. There are so many restaurants which is great but a variety of retailers would be good, too.
I have emailed, taken surveys, and asked questions before without anyone listening or so it seems. One issue I've talked about a lot is the need for parking at the new Trader Joe's that will be constructed by 92. The new location will also be less convenient because it will be on a busier road. I'm only hoping that shopping early in the morning on weekdays will make it easier for us retirees! Candidly yours,
MIchal Lim

Mr. Bustos,
As senior citizen residents in San Mateo we rely heavily on Draegers market so we strongly urge the Planning Commission to require that a full service grocery store remain at Draeger’s location.
We also urge you to require any structure to be a maximum of five stories and preferably less.
Since our previous objections to the proposal (see below) have had no impact please support the current design and not the Planning Commission design which calls for another story on top.
Thank you,
Robert & Sharron O’Pezio

We vehemently oppose the project and urge you to disapprove Lane’s proposal. The project will adversely affect our lives and the lives of all existing residents for the following reasons:
1. Environmental degradation caused by the demolition
2. Noise pollution and inconvenience to surrounding residents and businesses
3. Loss of Draegers a valued retail/grocery store that is within walking distance and critical to nearby residents.
4. Increased traffic congestion with the resulting pollution and inconvenience
5. Negative impact on local restaurants and retailers.

Please take this opportunity to establish design standards for our downtown that add to the historic look, rather than allowing developers to build utilitarian façades that clash with it. In the long run it’s good for business because people are drawn to neighborhoods that are attractive. You have already received several pictures of attractive buildings, of which the 101 Ellsworth project is one example.
With this many new proposals in the works, this is the time to choose to make our downtown beautiful.

Subject: Re: Closure of 17th Avenue Safeway
Addendum to my earlier letter:
One of the main reasons for my emotional response regarding the possibility of losing Safeway (along with the logical points I presented):
In October 2020, I woke up from a seizure having lost 30 plus years of memories. I had no idea who my husband of 30 years was. All I knew was that I went to bed at 27 years old in Pescadero and woke up in my grandmother’s house here in San Mateo at 61 years old. I lost my ability to drive, I was deeply confused, fatigued and distraught. I lost my ability to use my computer or phone. Caring for myself was like scaling Everest. But I could get to Safeway. I couldn’t get to downtown because I’d forgotten how to get there, plus it was too far, but I knew where Safeway was, and I could get there on foot. It became a lifeline for me.
I have since mostly healed. I’m on anti-seizure meds, I can drive, I’m obviously back on the computer, and I can write my humor columns once more, and my novels.
But that experience of losing my cognitive abilities, my through-line, experiencing that extreme disorientation of not recognizing my own husband, losing my past and present, gave me a window into my potential 90s. How hard it would be if I lost my ability to use a computer again, if I didn’t have a husband to care for me, if I faced that kind of confusion again. I’m childless and estranged from my family. I have to be able to depend on myself. I want to stay in San Mateo. I know if I lose my mind once more, I’ll probably still recognize my grandmother’s house. Part of my plan to stay here and care for myself in my later years was the ability to walk to that Safeway.
My adage has always been “Well, at least I’ll be able to walk to Safeway to get my food.” And now you people are going to take that anchor of safety from me.
So be it. Things change. I keep hearing Bruce Lee’s quote in my head: "Be like water, my friend, be like water.”
So maybe my river now needs to flow elsewhere. I just was never expecting to lose that Safeway.
However, I’m glad I’m finding out now rather than having Safeway taken away from me at ninety. Like my neighbors. Some of whom are autistic, disabled, in their mid-nineties, dependent on that grocery store for survival. I know how scared they’ll be when they find out. How will they care for themselves? they’ll ask. Answer? Who knows?
Thanks for listening. I know you’re trying your best. I wouldn’t want your job because no choice you make can possilbly satisfy everyone.
I’m just worried about losing precious resources, like the ability to walk to a reasonably-priced grocery store. We lost Lucky years back, but gained so many more people. 1196 of 1252
It’s just making it so challenging for your disabled and elderly residents to survive here.
Thanks again,

Why are you destroying downtown San Mateo? Isn’t it bad enough that you are getting rid of the ethnic mon and pop businesses and restaurants ‐ for what? More expensive housing. I loved our downtown because of all the eclectic stores and restaurants. Isn’t it bad enough that Traggs was replaced with housing — and now soon Draegers‐‐ our last local grocery store downtown. Having no full grocery store downtown in not acceptable!! How much more housing do we need downtown? You are turning downtown into nothing more than housing and restaurants. It was so nice to have a downtown that I could do all my shopping or just pick up a few needed groceries on my daily walk.
Please think this through beyond the $$$. No more housing in downtown San Mateo and please leave Dragers alone!!! Susie Reeves

Subject: downtown grocery store needed
To City council and city redevelopment planners,
I am writing with regard to redevelopment plans for downtown San Mateo, specifically the Draeger's site at 4th and B street, and downtown SM generally (eg former Trag's site).
I believe it is essential to retain a reasonable and usable site for a full-service grocery in the downtown area, and was under the impression that Draeger's would likely continue to operate in the new building. I am now hearing that this is unlikely and/or the size of proposed allocation will make it unlikely for other grocers as well.
The necessity of a full service grocer is consistent with the building of increased transit oriented development. If we want people to walk and not use cars, we need to have essential services within walking distance. I have been a consistent patron of Draeger's since it was built, more often than not accessing the store by foot from Sunnybrae rather than driving. As an able-bodied walker, I am fortunate to have 3 choices of walkable grocery stores, but many in the downtown and north of downtown area will specifically need a downtown grocer.
Please keep the original intention of creating a suitable and economically viable space for a full-service grocer in downtown San Mateo development.
Respectfully,

Greetings -
We are residents of San Mateo and one of the main the reasons we moved here is because of our walkable city.
Since my husband doesn’t drive, having Draeger’s nearby was extremely attractive, as well as other local businesses and beautiful Central Park. We are saddened that another new development is taking over the Draeger’s spot with talks of no full-line grocery taking its place because of loading dock issues. Now wouldn’t this have been determined as the project was approved? Why don’t you leave the perfectly good building there which has underground parking, loading abilities and other business space on top of the grocery store? I realize it’s too late to stop this project, but please understand you are not acting on behalf of your citizens to keep building large projects, which detract from city architecture and remove affordable places for small business owners to offer their services. Please, please stop and consider your resident tax payers who rely on local businesses and need to have a full line grocery store (and other services) within our downtown area.

Dear City Council and Planning Commission Members,
The purpose of this letter is to provide support for Lane Parners' proposed mixed-use project on our existing Draeger's Market site in the Downtown. We have been working on the design and operational details of the retail area alongside the project team for the past 2 years. The layout will be able to accommodate a full-service grocer and is similar in size to our Los Altos location.
It will be able to provide the quality offerings that the San Mateo community desires. In addition, we believe the community plaza area on the corner of 4th and Ellsworth will create an enjoyable experience and natural community gathering spot for customers, Downtown residents and visitors. While I recognize the concern expressed by some residents at the downsizing of the existing store, the size of the retail space within the proposed project is large enough to accommodate a practical grocery store and the design has been tailored specifically to achieve this outcome.
In conclusion, I fully support the proposed project and look forward to seeing it approved after all these years.

For the Draeger's development the location is already a prime location for a grocer with ample parking and foot traffic, so there should be minimal risk to the developer in adopting such a covenant.

To the San Mateo Planning Commission,
I am writing in regards to the proposed redevelopment of the Draeger's Market at 222 E. 4th Avenue.
This project will reduce retail square footage from 59k to 17k square feet for a site at the heart of the downtown retail core. In addition, the applicant is requesting a variance to reduce required retail frontage from 75% to 47% on B Street, 4th Avenue, and Ellsworth. As a result, the B Street frontage - San Mateo's signature shopping street - consists primarily of a blank wall fronting the parking garage. The continual elimination of retail space across downtown will only serve to drive up retail rents on balance, driving out the independent small businesses we cherish.
In exchange, the applicant offers a public plaza and 10 units of affordable housing. These 10 units are a drop in the bucket for a project that will likely employ 300-500 people in 100k square feet of office space. Directly across the street, the developers of 445 South B Street are proposing full retail frontage along B, alongside 60 units of affordable housing.
Overall, the benefits provided here do not match the impact on our jobs / housing imbalance, alongside the impacts of 3 years of construction during which downtown will have no full service grocery store.
While not every project can balance jobs and housing, this project should only be approved if the developer provides a meaningful contribution to the vibrancy of our downtown retail core. This could potentially include contributions towards the B Street pedestrian mall conversion, an enhanced retail environment on the B Street frontage, and/or a restrictive covenant to ensure the grocery space remains a full-service grocery in perpetuity.

My concern is that the Planning Commission will not have time to read and absorb all of the documents prior to making a decision to approve the subject documents. It is also an unreasonable burden on the public to have so little time to review and formulate comments on the documents.
I request that you postpone the meeting.
I am also concerned about Adam Nugent sitting on the Planning Commission when he has displayed such appalling bad judgment by removing Rob Newsom campaign signs, remaining silent about it for a week, and then making a series of excuses for his illegal behavior.

1 COMMENTS ON 222 E. 4TH AVENUE (DRAEGER’S MARKET)
Key comments on the proposed project:
1. Jobs/Housing Imbalance. The project adds to a jobs/housing imbalance and should include more housing.
2. Loss of Downtown Grocery. The loss of Draeger’s Market would be a substantial hardship to seniors and others who rely on the only downtown market. Even the loss of Draeger’s for the ~2 year construction period would be a hardship for downtown.
3. Too Much Office Space. There is over 132,000 square feet of available office space downtown, not counting the 260,000 square feet of approved office space for the Trag’s site, 180 E. 3
rd
, and 500 E. 3
rd
. There is another about 600,000 square feet
pending.
4. Inadequate Cumulative Impact Analysis. The CEQA Addendum and supporting documents do not adequately identify the cumulative impact scenarios and compare them to the General Plan and the Downtown Plan.
5. Design. The design of the project is not compatible.
6. The CEQA Addendum is Inadequate. The assumptions for population are overstated given the 10 units are studio and one bedroom. The estimate of employees per 1,000 square feet of office space is high. Most tech firms now use 150- 200 square feet, which means the number of employees, traffic trips and parking needs are undercounted. The Addendum does not provide assumptions for cumulative projects, which underestimates the impacts related to Air Quality, Noise, Traffic and Parking.
7. The Short Review Period is Inadequate. Three days to review the staff report of over 1,200 pages is inadequate for the public. Please provide the environmental document links on the “What’s Happening in Development” page.
OFFICE VS. HOUSING
This project has a substantial jobs/housing imbalance. The building should include additional housing.
In 2021, the planning commissioners were quoted in the Daily Journal (September 17, 2021):
“I don’t want to necessarily say no to office development per se, but again the jobs-housing imbalance is the elephant in the room when we are looking at this proposal,” Commissioner Adam Nugent said at a Sept. 14 meeting to discuss the proposed development. 1208 of 1252
Planning Commission
November 17, 2022
Hietter Comments on 222 E. 4th Avenue (Draeger’s Market) “We did not get into this housing crisis from one developer building 10 million square feet of office space. We got into this crisis by a thousand paper cuts. Repeated decisions to approve office projects without a plan for how we were going to provide the full amount of accompanied residential space that would be needed to serve those workers,” Patel said.
Commissioner John Ebneter suggested more units in the proposal to address growing housing needs in San Mateo and to meet the city’s downtown plan calling for higher density.
Vice Chair Margaret Williams appreciated Draeger’s filling the needs for San Mateo residents and wanted to see it stay. She also was concerned about the job to housing imbalance and wanted to see about another floor of housing.
What happened? Did the applicant revise the project to reflect the comments of the Planning Commission?
The addition of 10 below market rate housing units is a benefit to downtown San Mateo. The project would include 104,550 square feet of office space and 17,000 square feet of retail, with 9,000 square feet of housing. The proposed project, however, would add to the jobs/housing imbalance in downtown San Mateo. This project is one of nine downtown projects with a significant jobs/housing imbalance. There are 13 proposed and approved downtown projects with over 850,000 square feet of office space proposed and only 737 housing units. The parking imbalance is significant.
The project should provide more housing and less office space because there is substantial unleased office space downtown.

Hietter Comments on 222 E. 4th Avenue (Draeger’s Market) The project will greatly exacerbate the parking problem downtown. It is disappointing that Ellsworth and B Street will not have any retail.
LOSS OF DRAEGER’S
The loss of Draeger’s would be huge. Is this the right place for a project? The project means that the city will be without a full grocery store, after losing Trag’s, for the 20+ month construction period. Who knows how long the construction will last in this economic environment? This is a hardship for local residents and the entire community who rely on Draeger’s.
Draeger’s is also a tourist attraction with busloads of visitors. Has the city considered the loss of this attraction?
Please consider providing a temporary location for the aspects of Draeger's that are not available downtown, such as the meat and fish, bakery, hot food, wine department, cookware and gifts, etc.
NEED FOR CUMULATIVE IMPACT ANALYSIS OF DOWNTOWN PROJECTS The City has approved seven substantial projects downtown, with nine additional projects that are coming up. Please provide the community with an estimated timeline for the construction of all of these projects and prepare an accompanying cumulative impact analysis, especially related to traffic, air quality, noise, and parking.
Downtown will be a construction nightmare of noise, traffic, dust, and toxic air contaminants.
COMMENTS ON DESIGN
We agree with the comments of the Cannon Design Group and request that their recommendations be followed. The building style and articulation does not blend well with existing buildings. The box on box style is not compatible with downtown.
Did Cannon have access to and/or review the other approved and proposed downtown projects. We suggest that they review and comment on those projects as well.
COMMENTS ON EIR ADDENDUM
Project Description
p. 10, para. 1: What will the diesel generator supply? Is it for the retail, office or residential uses, or all of the uses? Will diesel be stored on site? Where and how much? How often will the unit be tested and have emissions? How will the emissions be vented from the garage? 1210 of 1252
Planning Commission
November 17, 2022
Hietter Comments on 222 E. 4th Avenue (Draeger’s Market) Site Access and Parking
p. 10, para. 3: The parking is inadequate and the removal of 22 on-street parking spaces further compounds the downtown parking problem. The office uses alone will bring 600 people to the site, not counting retail employees and residents, and provide only 226 parking spaces. There is no parking allocated for residents. The project should provide more parking. p. 10, para. 4: The 38 bicycle spaces are inadequate for the 700 office workers and 10 residential units, especially with the inadequate parking.
Construction
p. 20, last para.: The Addendum says construction will last 20 months but the ECORP greenhouse gas emissions analysis states that construction will take place over 3 years. Please clarify and resolve. Revised affected analyses if the construction would last more than 20 months.
p. 29, Impact AES-3: Please reference that the height of 75 feet allowed by AB1763 is not consistent with the community supported Measure Y, which limits mixed-use building height to 55 feet.
Air Quality
p. 47-49, Cumulative Community Health Risk Impacts: The cumulative health risk analysis should include the construction of the multiple other downtown buildings approved and proposed office and mixed-use projects, such as Block 21, Block 20, 435 E. 3rd Ave., 445 S. B Street, and 616 S. B Street.
The City has approved seven projects that are in or nearing construction downtown with nine more under review. This is unprecedented development occurring in a very small area downtown. The cumulative impacts must be thoroughly addressed for air quality, traffic, and noise. Only when there is a complete picture of what is construction is occurring downtown in the next few years can we really understand the cumulative impacts. Please conduct this analysis.
AIR QUALITY, bullet 1: All exposed surfaces (e.g., parking areas, staging areas, soil piles, graded areas, and unpaved access roads) shall be watered two times per day.
This measure is specified by the BAAQMD but may not be appropriate in this case. The measure is general and should be tied to the moisture conditions and wind speeds at the site. It may not be necessary to water two times per day if there has been a recent rain event. Please revise to be more instructive (e.g., water if the soil is dry and there is a visible dust plume).
Cultural Resources

Hietter Comments on 222 E. 4th Avenue (Draeger’s Market) Energy
p. 70 and 71: It seem odd that Draeger’s uses 2.4 million kilowatt-hours (kWh) of electricity per year and 2.4 million kilo-Btu of natural gas per year. Are these numbers correct? p. 73, para 1: The project will increase electric use by 143 billion net new kilowatt-hours of electricity per year. That seems like a significant use of energy. Is it really billion? Will there be cooking facilities at the new grocery store or restaurant? Will natural gas stoves be allowed? If not, will this building then preclude a restaurant at the ground floor because natural gas is not available for cooking?
The ECORP greenhouse gas analysis state that there would be a net reduction in GHGs, yet says that the energy use will increase by143 billion new kilowatt hours. Please reconcile this apparent discrepancy.
Noise
Condition of Approval NOI-4.13.3-1 should adequately reduce the noise in the proposed units.
The cumulative noise during construction does not seem to be adequately addressed. Please provide assumptions for the cumulative noise analysis.
Population and Housing
p. 140, last para.: The estimate of 2.59 persons per household may not be appropriate for the 20 units that are studio and one bedroom. Similarly, 300 square feet per employee or job is high for technology jobs and therefore understate the number of people, traffic trips, and necessary parking.
Public Services
p. 143, City of San Mateo Parkland Dedication/Fees: Please provide the appropriate information from the cited Chapter 26.64. In Section 13.05.070 of the Municipal Code.
The City is once again “kicking the can down the road” by allowing the developer to pay a park impact fee (SMMC Section 13.05.070) or a fee in lieu of dedication of lands for park and recreation purposes (park in-lieu fee) (SMMC Chapter 26.64). This practice is now amounting to illegal deferred mitigation because the city is deficient in park and open space and has allowed multiple downtown buildings to pay the in-lieu fee.
What is the city’s plan for increasing the park land to meet the city goal? Traffic
Thank you for including LOS as a non-CEQA topic.
General Plan Policy C 2.1 says:

Planning Commission
November 17, 2022
Hietter Comments on 222 E. 4th Avenue (Draeger’s Market) Maintain a Level of Service no worse than mid LOS D, average delay of 45.0 seconds, as the acceptable Level of Service for all intersections within the City. p. 158:
“New developments within the boundaries of the Downtown Specific Planning Area are recommended to prepare a TDM plan that encourages a 25 percent trip reduction below project trip generation numbers for the site proposed for development. Additionally, proposed developments in the Downtown Area would be recommended to participate in the Transportation Management Association (TMA) for the Downtown Area if established in the future, as well as submitting a trip reduction and parking management plan, and preparing an annual monitoring plan.”
This discussion of the Traffic Demand Management Plan seems to be all hypothetical. This Plan should be included in the environmental document to understand the actual impacts of the project.
Did the General Plan and Downtown IS/MND actually consider nine projects under construction at once?
The Traffic section and the Transportation Impact Analysis do not provide the assumptions used for considering the traffic impacts. How many additional downtown projects were considered for the different scenarios. It is hard to believe that will an additional 5,000+ people downtown (assuming all projects are built and not including all new residents), the traffic analysis truly represents the cumulative scenario (see attached spreadsheet for downtown development, based on the city’s What’s Happening in Development webpage.
Please provide the assumptions for the number of people and the number of cars the new projects will generate, and then revise the traffic and parking analyses.
Mandatory Findings of Significance
2. Cumulative Impacts
The cumulative impacts analyses are not adequate because they do not include the proposed and approved projects that could occur at the same time as the proposed Draeger’s project.
Please provide an analysis of the projects likely to occur at the same time, the cumulative impacts related to air quality, traffic, public services, noise, and other appropriate sections.
Did the General Plan EIR and the Downtown Specific Plan consider the simultaneous construction of nine or more downtown projects? The impact is not the same as the approved project.

I was unable to make a comment at tonight’s meeting re Draeger’s. Please note my comment about the loading zone being planned for B Street. I believe this will have a negative impact to traffic flow especially considering the project taking shape across the street at Talbot’s site.
I also hope that the city will take a broad look at the amount of office space that is being planned.

Subject: Questions at Planning Commission for the Draeger's Project.
Hello Ms. Sandhir,
I asked 2 questions at the Planning Commission meeting for Draegers and would like to get a response before this goes to the City Council on Thursday, December 1, 2022. As stated by Laurie Hietter in her comments on the Draeger’s Market, there is inadequate cumulative impact analysis and underestimates the impacts related to air quality, noise, traffic, and parking.
1. We requested mitigation for 5th Avenue between Delaware and S Amphlett, a narrow local street with a class III bike route, and a new bike boulevard for the safety of residents and bicyclists. 5th Avenue is not an Arterial between Delaware and Amphlett as described on page 351. 5th Avenue is not designed to serve shorter through traffic needs for commercial traffic, truck traffic, or a construction route. On page 1161, 5th Avenue is classified as a local street and local streets qualify for traffic calming. We need physical devices for traffic calming on 5th Avenue between Delaware to Amphlett to reduce the cut-through traffic and this needs to be included in the Conditions of Approvals.
Addendum to the EIR:
5. The report states 5th Avenue is an east-west, two to three-lane arterial roadway extending from Virginia Avenue on the west and transitioning into Amphlett Boulevard to the east. Arterial roads link residential and commercial districts and serve shorter through traffic needs. In the vicinity of the project site, 5th Avenue has two lanes. The road is directly adjacent to the project site and is proposed to provide direct access.
6. This chart shows that 5th Avenue is a local street from Delaware to S Amphlett and mentions a Class III Bike Route in the report but leaves out it will be a bike boulevard from Delaware to S Amphlett. It should not be used as a cut-through route for commercial traffic, truck traffic, or used as a construction route for trucks. This has been a problem with the new Kiku Crossing construction.
2. We need a better understanding of what percent of traffic and trucks will be coming from 101 and what percent of traffic and trucks will come from El Camino Real. Grocery stores require many deliveries by large trucks through a commercial area and wider streets when they make their turns.
Thanks.

Why should residents bother to comment?
We are constantly told we need new housing due to the jobs/housing imbalance. This proposal provides 10 housing units while adding 400-500 jobs and bringing 200 cars to downtown. Such hypocrisy.

Subject: PA-2021-071 222 E. 4th Avenue(Draegers Market)-New Five Story Retail/Residental Mixed-Use Building Date: Wednesday, November 30, 2022 5:44:32 PM
The original Grocery Store building was erected for the purpose to celebrate owners' longevity of the grocery business in San Mateo since 1927, Frank and Mary Draeger and Family proprietors. It's address is 222 E. 4th Avenue, downtown San Mateo.
I worked in this grocery store from 2002 to 2009. In 2008, I bought my condo at Gateway Commons at 221 S. Fremont St in San Mateo. I am now retired from the grocery industry for 11 years. Many of the grocery clerks working at Dreagers' today have their retirements vested with United Commerical Food Works, Local 5.
As per this PA-2021-071, the building permit to be finalized and approved tonight, the hard working Employees at the Draegers' Supermarket would be out of work for 2+ years. These individuals whom many reside in the City of San Mateo would have to find other jobs.
Even though, there is a letter of intent to rebuild the building into another grocery store, will it be another unionized UFCW Local 5 shop?
Please remember that we lost Trags Grocery Store almost 2 years ago to another development on Baldwin and B streets. This building, almost completed will have Retail along the sidewalks and residental complexes. It is located across the interesction from the Cal Train Station on "B" Street.
PA-2021-017, 222 E. 4th Avenue will be a building with a grocery store, office space, and residental complexes.
The front of the store will be basically of a glass exterior, especially where the office complex 2nd level will be located.
At the property on 3rd Avenues and 4th Street,between S. Claremont and Railroad Avenues the property recently build and Occupied has an Office Complex on the second floor with residental on the top floors. This is known as the Windy Hill Building.
The Office Complex at night, has lighting "Glearing" through the glass being visible for 3 blocks away. Recently, at a Planning meeting to build "Block 21", residents complained about the "glaring" light and the developer had tenants of Office complex place drapes halfway over the glass windows. The drapes are not hung correctly.
The other half of this Office floor Complex has different light fixtures but still glares at night.
In fact, when the new residents of Kiku Crossing are living in their new apartments they will be effected by this lighting.
Now, we are tonight discussing the rebuilding of a new building at 222 East 4th Avenue with the Office Complex located on the middle floor of the building. Is this Office building be constantly "glaring" at night from the light fixtures?
Please be clear about the contractors' specifics about the buildings glass facade and the "glaring" to the buildings around.

Subject: Draeger's Project
Mayor and Council Members:
It was my intent to deliver my comments to the Planning Commission on November 17, however given the 1276-page package was only available 72 hours prior to the meeting and the City website was down on the 17th, I was unable to review the package. Following are my comments:
AFFORDABLE HOUSING
The project applicant states the project is providing “affordable workforce” housing, which is a broad definition, however detail of rental prices was lacking for the ten low-income (80%AMI) units. Based on San Mateo County AMI table below the 2022 Maximum Affordable Rent Payments and Incomes Limits for this project are:
(2) Studio 460sf $2,610/mo $104,400 (1-person)
(6) 1-bdrm
590sf $2,797/mo $111,850 (1.5-person)
(2) 1-bdrm 630sf $2,797/mo $111,850 (1.5-person)
Based on the above rent payments the project will generate approximately $330,000 of income annually for the developer (unless the developer forgoes the proceeds) whereas a revenue stream to an affordable housing entity can be reinvested in creating more housing opportunities.
The project applicant proposes two more units than the eight required by the commercial linkage fee however, this proposed unit mix also maximizes the rental income. A different mix of eight units shown below generates approximately $280,000 of annual income:
(6) 1-bdrm 590sf $2,797/mo $111,850 (1.5-person)
(2) 2-bdrm 1000sf $3,356/mo $134,200 (3-person)
1224 of 1252
The project applicant claims that the cost of providing ten housing units is $7 million. The total square footage of the ten units is 5,960 resulting in a cost of nearly $1,200/sf. Interesting.
TRAFFIC
The project claims that there will be a reduction in traffic trips with the addition of 104,554sf of office space and ten residential units to full-service grocery store. Draeger’s is currently about 60,000sf, the proposed grocery store is about 17,000sf; but does that equate to a 70% reduction in traffic trips? Common sense says a reduced grocery store footprint will not result in a meaningful reduction of traffic trips, especially since this will be the only full-service grocery store downtown.
The traffic generated by Trader Joe’s, roughly 10,000sf, is a better representation. Logically, the addition of the office space and residential units and to a full- service grocery store will increase traffic trips.
Under the assumption traffic trips will decrease, the downstream intersections analyses would show no improvements are needed. However, if more traffic trips are generated by this project and intersection improvements are needed, the City will be footing the bill.
OFF-STREET LOADING ZONE
The project applicant maintains they should not have to comply with the Zoning Code that requires off-street loading in part because they “do not believe that this standard has been imposed on any other recent projects in the City, and it is clear that imposing this requirement on this project would physically preclude the project as proposed”. Has there been other recent commercial developments in the CBD that have not required off-street loading zones? It appears that the offices of Snowflake along Delaware have off-street loading zones.
Accepting this provision could end up setting a costly precedent and leaving the City vulnerable to continuously relinquishing valuable public real estate. The applicant designed the project contrary to zoning codes that are put in place to protect the safety and health of the public. Appears more like the taking of public property for private purposes.
GENERAL
There appears to be a real imbalance of benefits, to the detriment of the City, when applying the density bonus law to this predominantly commercial project. The residential component is less than 5% of the project yet the concessions and waivers yield substantial developer benefits but do not result in additional housing units above that required by the commercial linkage fee. As stated above the developer is proposing ten smaller units rather than eight of a different mix. Although the 1225 of 1252
Government Code states, “When an applicant seeks a density bonus for a housing development” here the developer is realizing benefits for a commercial project.
Sincerely,
Lisa Maley

Subject: Redevelopment at Draeger's - PA21-071 / 222 E. 4th Avenue December 1, 2022
Dear Members of the City Council,
These are comments for the Draeger’s project this evening.
SAFETY
1. We need strong traffic calming measures for 5th Avenue a 2 lane narrow local street, class III Bike Route, and Bike Boulevard to reduce the commercial cut-through traffic. The current signage and street markings are inadequate and we have large 16 wheel trucks and the construction trucks cutting through.
We are not designed for commercial traffic, truck traffic, or as a construction route. We need safer streets for our Seniors, children, and bicyclists. There are 19 new projects in the Downtown and 2 have been completed. Many future projects will be developed concurrently and the list is included at the bottom.
Traffic calming measures for 5th Avenue needs to be included in the Conditions of Approvals for Draegers Market for protections from the construction impacts from all surrounding projects.*
2. Truck traffic route - we need the commercial traffic to take 101 to 92 to ECR the state highways to 4th Avenue and B Street to Draegers and back out via 9th Avenue (Truck Route in Downtown) to ECR through State Highways - ECR, 92 and 101 and not residential streets. *Draegers’ Traffic Impact Analysis - Local Transportation Analysis Page 12 - Class III (Bike Route/Bicycle Boulevard) – Bike route provide signage and permanent markings on low-stress roadways to increase driver awareness of people biking. No exclusive right of way is provided. Bicycle boulevards prioritize bicycle through-travel and use traffic calming to slow vehicle traffic and maintain low motor vehicle volumes. These routes are often applied on quiet streets and through residential neighborhoods DESIGN
1227 of 1252
3. This project will use the new contemporary Mass Timber materials in the structure with large glass windows and we want to insure the interior illumination of 3 stories of office at night will not impact the residents at the Gramercy, Stratford, Stradbally, and BeSpoke. The Mass Timber was not covered in the EIR.
4.Replace the clear glass guard railings with solid material on the 2nd and 4th levels. This was recommended by Margaret Williams Planning Chair. Otherwise, there will be too much glass in this structure and we want the building to blend in better with the historic downtown with more traditional elements versus more contemporary box on box with angular lines.
TOO MUCH OFFICE SPACE
5.We will have 13 new large office projects and not enough workforce housing in the Downtown. We will have empty office buildings at night, and the Downtown needs more vitality and pedestrian traffic in the evenings.
INADEQUATE CUMULATIVE IMPACT ANALYSIS
6.We need to know the cumulative construction impacts between Draegers and these other projects below.We do not know the list of projects used in these various reports by the different consultants. These are the Downtown Projects by completion, under construction, approved, under review, and in pre-app.
There are many under construction now and more under review. Many projects will be built concurrently.
This would add to the cumulative impacts of air quality, noise, traffic, parking, and vibrations. Emergency access may be a concern. All the projects on 3rd, 4th, 5th could cause delays along with the grade crossing back-ups. The analysis of construction traffic was not conducted, so we don’t know if it would cause a significant impact. The reports use - 1000 per square ft to count employees which is high. Tech uses 150- 200 employees sf of office space per person. The number of employees may be undercounted in the cumulative impact analysis. Therefore the impacts may be underestimated in the CEQA Addendum.

Jonathan,
I wish you luck tonight that the City of San Mateo will approve your project on the “Draeger’s” site. Please forward this email to the City, noting these particular reasons that I support the project, both as a land-for-development broker and as a San Mateo resident.
It is noteworthy that amongst your multiple projects in San Mateo you have done so many things to work with the citizens and bring fresh diversity to town. This certainly includes your response to the community to change this project to include housing.
The existing store has never done very well and yet Draegar’s is great, highquality downtown amenity. Perpetuating them forward in the same location in a smaller (more feasibly sized) store is fantastic for San Mateo. And they will have some new customers right there upstairs.
The building is nicely designed and like your project on the old Trag’s site, the site abuts multiple streets, greatly improving the separation of entrances for the different components within the project. It is fortunate when different uses do not have to share the street exposure, as it improves the quality of each and improves functionality such as loading and unloading.
Good luck, please let me know how it comes out.
