MEETING DATE: December 04, 2023
SUBJECT:
New Objective Design Standards for Multi-Family and Residential Mixed-Use Development – Ordinance Adoption RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt an Ordinance to amend the Zoning Code (Title 27) related to ODS and review processes for multi-family and residential mixed-use projects, and align the fence height standards to match building code standards.
BACKGROUND:
On November 20, 2023, the City Council introduced the attached proposed ordinance (Attachment 1) to amend the Zoning Code (Title 27) related to ODS and review processes for multi-family and residential mixed-use projects, and align the fence height standards to match building code standards. If adopted this ordinance will become effective 30 days after its adoption.
BUDGET IMPACT:
There is no budget impact associated with this ordinance adoption.
ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION:
In accordance with California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines, Section 15061(b)(3), adoption of this ordinance is covered by the "common sense exemption" in that CEQA applies only to projects which have the potential to cause a significant effect on the environment. Here, it can be seen with certainty that the proposed amendments create objective design standards and a streamlined review process for small projects up to twenty-five (25) residential dwelling units subject to objective design standards would not cause a physical change in the environment and therefore would not have a significant effect on the environment. Proposals for multi-family or residential mixed-use development will be considered as individual projects and will be evaluated pursuant to CEQA at the time of application submittal.

FROM: Alex Khojikian, City Manager
PREPARED BY: Public Works Department
MEETING DATE: December 04, 2023
SUBJECT:
Delaware Street Safe Routes to School Corridor Bicycle Improvements – Appropriation, Budget Transfer, and Agreement RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt a Resolution to appropriate $28,000 from the City’s Measure A funds to the Delaware Street Safe Routes to School Corridor Project in the Capital Project Fund; and transfer $92,400 from the Citywide Street Reconstruction Package 1 Project to the Delaware Street Safe Routes to School Corridor Project (Project) in the Capital Project Fund, for a total Project design budget of $380,080; approve a Design Professional Services Agreement with Sandis Civil Engineers Surveyors Planners for the Delaware Street Safe Routes to School Corridor Bicycle Improvements Project in the amount of $290,980; establish a contingency reserve in the amount of $29,100 for the agreement; and authorize the Public Works Director to execute the agreement in substantially the form presented and issue change orders within the contingency amount.
BACKGROUND:
In the City’s 2020 Bicycle Master Plan (Plan), Delaware Street is identified as a major north-south connector providing critical bicycle access to major connections and destinations, including Fiesta Gardens International School and George Hall Elementary School. The Plan recommends upgrading the existing Class II bike lanes to Class IV separated bike lanes on Delaware Street from 19th Avenue to 28th Avenue and upgrading the existing bicycle route to a bicycle boulevard on Delaware Street from 28th Avenue to Pacific Boulevard where they will connect with existing bicycle facilities southerly on Pacific Boulevard (Project). These new bicycle facilities on Delaware are necessary to create a low-stress corridor suitable for users of all ages serving, in particular, younger cyclists needing access to the nearby schools. A description of the various types of bicycle facilities described above is included in Attachment 3.
In April 2021, the California Transportation Commission awarded the City $1,661,000 in Regional Active Transportation Program (ATP) grant funding to Project 46R022 Delaware Street Safe Routes to School Corridor Bike Improvements for design and construction of the bicycle facility upgrades described above on Delaware Street. Community outreach is also included in the Project scope, which will solicit feedback from the community regarding the proposed bicycle facilities and their connection to current or future bicycle facilities and engage with residents directly adjacent to the project to identify any impacts (i.e. parking), concerns or challenges with the Project’s implementation and work toward addressing those issues. The feedback received will help inform the Project design.
Of the overall grant fund amount ($1,661,000), approximately $260,000 is allocated for design and $1.4M for construction.
As the same segment of roadway on Delaware Street was planned to be resurfaced by the City Street Reconstruction Program in 2028, staff is looking to streamline the two (2) projects and leverage a smooth roadway surface for the proposed Class IV bike facility on Delaware Street. Therefore, it is proposed to transfer $92,400 from project 467008 Citywide Street Reconstruction Package 1 to the 46R022 Delaware Street Safe Routes to School Corridor Bike
22 of 268
CITY OF SAN MATEO

Improvement project, in order to accelerate the design of the resurfacing of this roadway segment in advance of the Class IV separated bike lane improvements. As a result, the total design cost including design contingency and staff cost is approximately $380,080.
Sandis Civil Engineers Surveyors Planners (Sandis) was selected through a qualification process using a request for proposals (RFP) for professional engineering design services. The Project was advertised on September 7, 2023, and a total of five (5) proposals were received on October 12, 2023. Staff’s review of the proposals included an evaluation and scoring method based on each firm’s qualifications while taking into account the contract price proposed relative to the work to be performed. Staff reviewed the five proposals and selected Sandis based on their proposal. Sandis’s scope, schedule, and qualifications best align with the City’s needs. Therefore, staff recommends awarding an agreement to Sandis to perform the design services for this Project for an amount not to exceed $290,980. A contingency reserve of $29,100 (10% of the contract amount) is recommended to cover any unforeseen changes during the design process.
Because the Project is being completed with ATP grant funds, which have a “timely use of funds” requirement, the City is working toward completing the design for this Project by October 2024 to meet the construction fund allocation deadline requirement in early 2025. Grant funds for preliminary engineering (design) are limited to $260,000, with a total Project design cost of approximately $380,080. There is a Project deficit of $28,000, when including the Project 467008 transfer of $92,400. To cover this deficit, staff recommends an appropriation of $28,000 from the City‘s Measure A funds and a transfer of $92,400 from the Citywide Street Reconstruction Package 1 Project. Please see Table 1. Design Cost Breakdown below for additional detail.
Table 1. Design Cost Breakdown
* rounded to the nearest thousandth
BUDGET IMPACT:
There are sufficient funds in the City’s Measure A funds and the Citywide Street Reconstruction Package 1 (467008) Project for the recommended appropriation in the amount of $28,000 to cover increased design costs since the Project was initially estimated and budget transfer in the amount of $92,400 to cover pavement rehabilitation design costs. With the supplemental funding from the appropriation and budget transfer, the Delaware Street Safe Routes to School Corridor (46r022) Project will have sufficient available budget to fully fund the agreement, contingency reserve, staff costs, and locally funded Project components.
ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION:
This Project is categorically exempt from CEQA as an “existing facility,” because it consists of the operation, repair, maintenance, permitting, leasing, licensing, or minor alteration of existing public or private structures, facilities, mechanical equipment, or topographical features, involving negligible or no expansion of existing or former use. (CEQA Guidelines Section 15301.)

• Submit baseline and monthly progress schedules, highlighting key permits and approvals needed for design and construction facilitation.
• Participate in virtual and in-person meetings with the City, including kick-off, bi-weekly progress reviews, design submittal presentations, and other meetings as outlined in the scope of services.
Deliverables:
• Scope of work
• Schedule
• Budget/Invoices
Task 2 - Community Outreach and Engagement
Leshner Planning & Transportation (LPT) will lead Task 2 in close coordination with City Staff as well as support from the larger Sandis team, with the goals of raising awareness about the project, gathering information on existing conditions, evaluating potential improvements, and overall, developing a community-supported project.
Task 2.1 Community Engagement Plan
As a first step, LPT will review relevant recent community engagement activities and summaries from other planning efforts such as the 2020 Bicycle Master Plan. LPT will then work collaboratively with City Staff and Sandis to develop an engagement plan that meaningfully engages key stakeholders (e.g., local businesses, schools) and community members and sets the project up to be responsive to community needs. The public engagement plan will identify specific engagement tools, events, approaches to advertising events/tools, etc., to support the project.
We anticipate planning 2-3 engagement phases to collect feedback on:
1. Existing conditions, gaps, opportunities
2. Potential proposed improvements
3. The draft project
(Note: tasks 1 & 2 may be combined based on feedback from City staff.) We assume that the final engagement plan will be based on one round of consolidated comments on a draft engagement plan.
Task 2.2 Community Engagement Activities
For scoping purposes, we have assumed the following activities, which will be refined and finalized as part of developing the Community Engagement Plan in Task 2.1:
• Stakeholder meetings – LPT will plan and lead two (2) meetings with relevant stakeholder groups such as local schools (i.e., Fiesta Gardens International School and George Hall Elementary School) and/or businesses (e.g., SurveyMonkey). We assume one meeting would occur virtually and one would occur in person. • Workshops (2) – LPT will plan for and lead one (1) virtual and one (1) in-person 2-hour workshop (or public meeting), with day of support from City staff and Sandis staff.
34 of 268
S C O P E O F W O R K
• Outreach materials – LPT will develop outreach materials (e.g., graphics, flyers) based on Sandis’s drawings, with input/review from City Staff.
• Project webpage content – LPT will work with Sandis to develop website copy and images/documents to post to the City’s website to inform the community about the overall project and provide project updates. We assume preparing up to 2 website copy/materials updates.
Task 2.3 Documentation
LPT will summarize and analyze feedback from participants at the conclusion of the community engagement process and document outreach activities, findings, and results in summary memorandum. The final outreach memo will be based on one round of consolidated comments on the draft memo.
Optional Task 2A – Demonstration project
If selected by the City, the Sandis team can develop a detailed scope and fee estimate for planning and implementing a demonstration project, e.g., temporary Class IV separated bikeway. This type of event would help show the community what a potential proposed project would look like and how it would operate and could help educate the public about a newer bikeway facility type.
Optional Task 2B – Standalone project website
If selected by the City, our team can develop a specific scope and fee to create a standalone project website with additional functionality such as a map survey tools, comment collection, text message surveys, and more. The project website would serve as a virtual open house, and offer interactive features to engagement the community and solicit feedback. In our experience, this type of website may be beneficial for the project but not an outright requirement. Our team recommends discussing and refining the needs/goals of the website upon selection or at the project kick off.
Optional Task 2C – Pop-up events
If selected by the City, LPT will plan and lead two (2) in-person pop-up events with support from Sandis staff. Pop-up events or tabling at local events could occur at the Hillsdale Caltrain Station, Bay Meadows Park, the County Event Center or other local gathering places in the study area.
Optional Task 2D – Online survey
If selected by the City, LPT will develop an online survey to collect feedback on existing conditions and/or proposed improvements. Once the survey is closed, LPT will summarize survey results.
Task 3 – Caltrans Approval (ROW Authorization)
Sandis will prepare complete Plans, Specifications, and Estimates for work within Caltrans right of way so that the improvements at S Delaware St and 19th Ave can be reviewed, approved, and permitted by Caltrans for construction, if needed. It is assumed that these improvements would be limited to striping only, and would provide a transition from the Class IV facility on Delaware, to the intersection, as part of an interim condition We assume that only 1-2 plan sheets would be required for this.
Task 4 – Site Investigations including Geotechnical, Survey, and Utility Potholing Our team will conduct preliminary site investigations that support the design and construction of project improvements, related to the sidewalks, intersections, and roadway.
This includes the following:
Task 4.1 Geotechnical Investigations and Recommendations Ninyo & Moore will provide subsurface exploration consisting of four borings up to 5 feet deep and preparation of a geotechnical report with recommendations for replacement pavement/sections for a determined traffic index. It is assumed that boring permits will not be needed due to the depth of exploration and encroachment permits for the exploration will be provided at no cost to Ninyo & Moore. Costs for analytical testing, exploration traffic control, and drilling subcontractor have
35 of 268
S C O P E O F W O R K
been added as reimbursable expenses. Recommendations will include specific locations and treatment types and are assumed to be the following:
• 19th to Pacific (PCI 38) – 2” Grind and Overlay with 6” Deep Base Repairs • Pacific to 450’ south of 25th Ave (PCI 61) – 2” Grind and Overlay • 450’ south of 25th Ave to 28th Ave (PCI 69) – Slurry
Work related to this task will be tracked and invoiced under a unique task, Task 4.1
Task 4.2– Topographical Survey and Base Mapping
Sandis will perform a topographic field survey to gather the necessary information and detail for the design of the Project along S Delaware St, between 19th Ave and Pacific Blvd. The boundary shall establish City right-of-way and be used to confirm that all improvements are within the City’s right-of-way. Sandis will use an aerial drone to collect information for the overall corridor; a topographic field survey will occur at the signalized intersections or at locations where new curb ramps will be provided. It is assumed that detailed elevations and underground information are not needed outside of the intersection/curb ramp improvement locations.
Existing right of way will be based upon available maps and deeds on file in the County public records and Caltrans maps. We will include and show plottable easements, if any, and right-of-way lines with length and bearing (including reference on basis) on each boundary course. A Preliminary Title Report with referenced documents will be ordered if needed.
Sandis will conduct fieldwork, office calculations, and drafting to produce a topographic survey of the project area at a 1” = 20’ Scale. This survey will show the location and sizes of existing trees (Driplines will be assumed), grade breaks, high points, low points signs, fences, walls, buildings, striping, driveways, walkways, drainages, structures, lights, poles, bollards, vegetated or landscaped areas (including bushes, etc), USA markings, vaults, valves, meters, boxes, pedestals, cleanouts, manholes, drain inlets, catch basins, culverts, outfalls, and standpipes within the project area(s). Field measurements of inverts of accessible and unobstructed visible catch basins, area drains, storm drain manholes, and sanitary sewer manholes will be shown.
Elevation spot grades and/or the combination of contours will be shown at one (1) foot intervals or as appropriate to clearly define the slopes. Elevations collected by ground surveys will be shown to an accuracy of 0.01’ (one hundredth) of a foot.
Heavily brushed areas will be defined at the perimeter. Brush clearing will be the responsibility of the client if ground elevations need to be collected in those areas. Existing elevations shall be shown at a maximum of 100-foot cross sections.
Spot elevations shall be shown at all points of vertical or horizontal change (grade break). Elevations will be based on available NGS or locally published benchmarks.
Utility information will be based on surface evidence located in the field and the solicitation of the records of the various utility providers. Sandis will coordinate directly with the utility providers to achieve this. Sandis will issue an underground service alert to field-verify the data provided by various utilities, particularly where there may be conflicts with proposed pole and conduit locations.
Mechanical detection of existing high-risk utilities will also be provided. Potholing can be provided at an additional expense.
We recommend utilizing non-invasive utility locating methods first, utilizing potholing at critical and congested locations.
Deliverables:
• Geotechnical report
• Topographic base map including utility information
• Utility report
Task 5 – Preliminary Engineering
30% Design Plans
Task 5 will include preparing 30% design plans (PDF) which will encompass plan layouts, typical sections, details, and budget- level construction cost estimates. The outcomes of Task 2 (Community Outreach and Engagement) and the selected design and operations alternative will be integrated into the preliminary engineering phase. Additionally, our team will explore connections to existing or potential future bicycle facilities within the city, including but not limited to 28th Avenue (between El Camino Real and Delaware Street) and 19th Avenue (between Pacific Boulevard and Fashion Island Boulevard).
36 of 268
S C O P E O F W O R K
Sandis will prepare a Basis of Design to support and document design decisions used to prepare the 30% Design Plans. Our process will consist of the following:
• Identify site constraints, including necessary curb ramp replacements, areas of ponding, impacts to private driveways, and other improvements to support successful reconstruction. • Identify existing utility conflicts and suggest utility relocation as needed, coordinating with third-party utilities in accordance with franchise agreements and addressing potential schedule impacts. • Create 30% design drawings outlining proposed improvements and work limits. • Determine the scope of traffic signal modifications required for the preferred alternative and provide preliminary layouts. Preliminary signal layouts will be based on utility research and locating to mitigate or identify utility conflicts. • Design bicycle facilities and connections, specifying materials (or parking separation) for separating vehicles and bicyclists.
• Incorporate the above into a Basis of Design (BOD) and conduct a workshop attended by Public Works management for acceptance before proceeding with detailed design work.
Deliverables:
• 30% design submittal including plans, specifications outline, and cost estimate • Basis of Design (BOD) report
• Technical review workshop agenda and minutes
Task 6 – Preparation of Detailed Plans, Specifications, and Cost Estimates (PS&E) for Construction Sandis will advance the 30% design plan layout, as developed in Task 5, to the final construction documents. This process will involve creating 90% and final construction contract documents. Each submittal will include plans, specifications, and estimates. Sandis will utilize City of San Mateo bidding documents (bid list) throughout the process.
The design documents will encompass all necessary traffic signal modifications essential for the existing traffic signals to function properly, as identified in the preferred design alternative selected during Task 5.
This includes an array of critical components, such as upgrades to signal poles and mast arms, the implementation of multi- modal detection systems, emergency vehicle preemption, and potentially closed-circuit television (CCTV). The plan set will include information on existing traffic signal cabinets and their contents, conduits, conductors, and phase diagrams.
Furthermore, the consultant will address the civil engineering aspects required to implement the signal operations and other corridor improvements outlined in the preferred scenario.
This may include improvements such as:
• Median cutback
• Pedestrian refuges
• Pavement restoration/rehabilitation
• New or reconstructed ADA curb ramps,
• Class IV Separation
We assume that following plans (but not limited to) will be needed:
• Demolition Plans
• Layout Plans (Pavement Improvements Extents)
• Grading Plans
• Electrical and Signal Plans
• Signing and Striping Plans
• Construction Details
37 of 268
S C O P E O F W O R K
We assumed that the City’s Traffic Consultant will prepare signal timing cards for any changes to the corridor signal phasing and timing. Sandis will coordinate with the Traffic Consultant to ensure that the design and operations are congruent.
Depending on the selected layout and improvements, stormwater management and treatment may be needed. Sandis is experienced with treatment requirements and practices and can provide this, if identified, as an additional service.
Our work approach for Task 6 is the following:
• Communicate with various agencies and utility companies as necessary to obtain information, and coordinate other activities required to complete the scope of services. • Present in-progress plans at the biweekly progress meetings with the City, if requested. • Prepare and submit plans, specifications, and cost estimates for the 90% design development milestones. • Prepare for and facilitate a design review with City staff. • Prepare and submit final construction contract documents incorporating all comments from previous reviews. • Prepare plans using AutoCAD and plot at appropriate scales on 22-inch x 34-inch sheets. • Write specifications in the format of Caltrans standard specifications 2018 version. The City will provide standard City general conditions for consultant’s use. Prepare all special provisions and technical specifications required for construction in a manner that integrates clearly with City and Caltrans specifications. Review general conditions and coordinate any proposed changes with City. This project may utilize federal funds for construction; write specifications accordingly.
• Develop a schedule of bid items to address all required contract work and prepare clear specifications for measurement and payment. Provisions for alternate items may be considered as an approach to keep the project within budget.
• Identify any physical work required for project implementation outside of the construction contract and provide recommendations for procurement methods.
• We assume that consolidated comments will be issued after each City review. Sandis will provide responses to these comments as part of the subsequent submittal.
Deliverables:
• 90% PS&E submittals in electronic format (MS Word, Excel, and PDF) • Technical review workshop/meeting
• Final bid documents: submit original stamped drawings and complete contract book including bid documents, general conditions and special provisions in electronic format (MS Word and PDF, plans in AutoCAD and PDF) • Final quantity estimates, quantity calculation sheets, final construction cost estimate submitted in the format of the schedule of bid items in electronic format (MS Word and PDF), including detailed construction cost estimate documentation
• Other documentation as needed to clarify design and contract approach Task 7 – Bidding Support

FROM: Alex Khojikian, City Manager
PREPARED BY: Police Department
MEETING DATE: December 04, 2023
SUBJECT:
Police Vehicle Computer Replacement – Purchase
RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt a Resolution to approve the use of an alternative purchasing procedure and Master Purchasing Agreement and Participating Addendum with CDWG for the purchase of 56 Panasonic laptops per the City’s computer replacement schedule in the amount of $252,996.21and 40 Havis laptop docking stations in the amount of $27,582.65 for a total amount of $280,578.86; and authorize the Chief of Police to execute the agreement in substantially the form presented.
BACKGROUND:
Each of the Police Department’s patrol vehicles have an in-car computer, which are Panasonic CF-33 ‘Toughbook’ style laptops. Our City’s replacement strategy for computers is to replace after five years in service to mitigate potential maintenance issues, support problems, and to keep the equipment current with industry standards. The CF-33s were purchased in April, 2018, and are past due for replacement. The Police Department has identified the Panasonic FZ-55 laptop as the optimal device, aligning with policing industry best practices for in-car computers. In addition to the new laptops, new docking stations, that hold the laptop and enable their usage in the patrol vehicles, are also needed. Havis docking stations have been identified by staff as the optimal hardware to meet this need.
Staff obtained the quotation for the proposed purchase through a purchasing cooperative known as the National Intergovernmental Purchasing Alliance (NIPA) with the City of Mesa, Arizona as the lead agency. NIPA contracts allow participants to pay less through competitively solicited, evaluated, and awarded contracts that leverage the cooperative buying power of local government agencies, avoiding costs normally associated with the development of highly technical bid specifications, while assuring that competitive prices were received. CDWG is a participating vendor under NIPA contract #2018011-01 and is recommended because the quality of its customer support and services, its efficient warranty and replacement policy, and because its products have proven to be of high quality and are stable and reliable.
Municipal Code section 3.60.070(h)(3) provides that the City may use any purchasing procedures approved by the City Council, if the City Council makes a finding concurrent with the award of the contract that the procedures are in the best interest of the City. Utilizing NIPA’s procurement service is in the best interest of the City because it offers competitively priced contracts for goods and services, allows the City to avoid costs normally associated with the development of highly technical bid specifications, and assures that competitive prices are received. Based on the above, staff recommends approving the purchase of 56 laptop computers pursuant to the Master Purchasing Agreement and Participating Addendum with CDWG for an amount not to exceed $252,996.21; and 40 docking stations in an amount not to exceed $27,581.65.
BUDGET IMPACT:
Funds have been accrued and are available for the laptop computers and docking stations through the City’s Computer

RESOLUTION NO. ____ (2023)
APPROVING AN ALTERNATIVE PURCHASING PROCEDURE FOR ISSUANCE OF PURCHASE ORDERS TO CDWG FOR PURCHASE OF REPLACEMENT IN-CAR COMPUTERS ($252,996.21) AND DOCKING STATIONS ($27,582.65) FOR POLICE PATROL VEHICLES WHEREAS, the City replaces computer hardware on an ongoing basis once it has reached its operational lifespan of five (5) years; and
WHEREAS, the City has identified that the Panasonic laptop computers inside the Police Department’s patrol vehicles have reached the end of their operational life per the replacement schedule; and WHEREAS, Municipal Code Section 3.60.070(h)(3) provides that the City may use purchasing procedures approved by the City Council if the Council makes a finding that the procedures are in the best interest of the City; and
WHEREAS, as a public sector agency, the City may participate in the National Intergovernmental Purchasing Alliance (NIPA) which offers contracts that have been competitively bid and negotiated; and WHEREAS, CDWG is a participating vendor under the current NIPA contract; and WHEREAS, CDWG is the preferred vendor due to the quality of its customer support and services; and WHEREAS, the Department of Information Technology and Police Department have determined the Panasonic FZ-55 laptops and Havis docking stations purchased from CDWG best meets the City’s needs.
NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SAN MATEO, CALIFORNIA, HEREBY RESOLVES that:
1. This action is not a project subject to CEQA, because it can be seen with certainty that it will not cause a physical change in the environment (Public Resources Code Section 21065.)
2. Pursuant to Municipal Code Section 3.60.070(h)(3), the purchase of Panasonic FZ-55 laptops and Havis docking stations from CDWG through the National Intergovernmental Purchasing Alliance (NIPA) is in the best interest of the City because the NIPA procurement service officers competitively priced contracts for goods and services; and avoids costs normally associated with the development of highly technical bid specifications, while assuring the competitive prices were received.
3. The Chief of Police is authorized to issue purchase orders to CDWG in the amounts of $252,996.21 (laptops) and $27,582.65 (docking stations) and execute related documents for the replacement of computers and docking stations inside patrol vehicles.

Dear City Council and Manager,
RE: Item on upcoming City Agenda: Laptop purchase for SMPD
Is there any way to get this cost down for 56 laptops? What's going to happen to the old laptops? I went to the CDW-G website and found that the Panasonic toughbook is now on sale, so 56 laptops= $186,613.28. (Unless there is an upgrade not mentioned??)
Maybe renegotiate with the vendor to match this current price.

MEETING DATE: December 04, 2023
SUBJECT:
Bermuda Drive Utility Relocation Project – Agreement
RECOMMENDATION:
Approve an agreement with St. Francis Electric, LLC for the Bermuda Drive Utility Relocation Project in the amount of $167,105; establish a contingency reserve in the amount of $25,000; and authorize the Public Works Director to execute the agreement in substantially the form presented and issue change orders as allowed by the contract documents and within the amount of the contingency amount.
BACKGROUND:
In 2008, the City applied for preliminary engineering funds through the Highway Bridge Replacement and Rehabilitation Program (HBRRP) to evaluate the condition of the Bermuda Drive Bridge over Borel Creek and address the structural deficiencies identified in a bridge inspection report prepared by the California Department of Transportation (Caltrans). In 2010, Caltrans approved the HBRRP funds and City Council approved a professional services agreement with Biggs Cardosa Associates, Inc. (BCA) to perform the preliminary engineering to structurally retrofit the bridge.
Structural assessments and a detailed seismic analysis done in 2011 and 2012 by BCA recommended a full replacement of the bridge rather than a structural retrofit. In 2017, Caltrans provided official approval to proceed with a revised scope of work that includes full bridge replacement. On May 21, 2018, City Council approved the award of a professional services agreement with BCA for design and environmental documentation services for the Bermuda Drive Bridge Replacement Project. The design is currently anticipated to be completed during 2024.
The Bermuda Drive Utility Relocation Project (Project) is a subproject that is part of the larger Bermuda Drive Bridge Replacement Project. This Project involves undergrounding high-voltage electrical lines across Bermuda Drive to avoid conflict during pile installation during the Bermuda Drive Bridge Replacement Project. The Engineer’s Estimate for the Project is $250,000. The Project was advertised on October 2, 2023, and a total of five (5) bids were received and opened on October 24, 2023. The bids received are listed below in order of increasing bid amount.
Contractor Grand Total Bid Amount
St. Francis Electric, LLC $167,105.00
W.R. Forde Associates, Inc. $224,815.00
Corcus Construction, Inc. $260,475.00
MBS Engineering $284,406.32
PAR Western Line Contractors Nonresponsive
Staff reviewed the bids and determined that St. Francis Electric, LLC is the lowest responsive, responsible bidder and
104 of 268
CITY OF SAN MATEO
4 5
6 7
recommends it be awarded the construction contract. PAR Western Line Contractors’ bid was deemed nonresponsive as the bid amount was missing.
Based on staff’s prior experience, the Project presents a higher risk profile than other typical City construction contracts.
The Project includes trenching, utility relocation, and coordinated construction tasks with multiple utility companies. The requested contingency (15% of the construction contract) will allow staff to mitigate risk due to unanticipated conditions that may rise during construction.
BUDGET IMPACT:
Sufficient funds are available in the Bermuda Drive Bridge Replacement Project (#462250) to award this agreement.
ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION:
This Project is categorically exempt from CEQA as an “existing facility,” because it consists of the operation, repair, maintenance, permitting, leasing, licensing, or minor alteration of existing public or private structures, facilities, mechanical equipment, or topographical features, involving negligible or no expansion of existing or former use. (CEQA Guidelines Section 15301.)

All of the above-named documents are complementary and are intended to operate in harmony, so that any work called for in one, and not mentioned in the other, or vice versa, is to be executed the same as if mentioned in all said documents. In the event of any variation or discrepancy between any portion of this Agreement and any portion of the contract documents, this Agreement shall prevail. The precedence of the remaining contract documents will be as specified in the Contract Book.

6. Legal Work Day - Penalties for Violation. Eight hours of labor shall constitute a legal day's work.

FROM: Alex Khojikian, City Manager
PREPARED BY: Police Department
MEETING DATE: December 04, 2023
SUBJECT:
Staffing of Police Officers at College of San Mateo Football Games – Agreement RECOMMENDATION:
Approve an agreement with the San Mateo County Community College District to staff Police Officers at the College of San Mateo home football games and authorize the Chief of Police to execute the agreement in substantially the form presented.
BACKGROUND:
The College of San Mateo hosts numerous football games on their campus throughout their college football season, and it has been past practice for the San Mateo Police Department to staff officers at these games as part of the overall security component. The San Mateo Community College District and the City had previously adopted an agreement outlining this relationship from 2018-2023; however, the agreement recently expired. Both the SMCCD and the Police Department wish to adopt an updated service agreement to continue this partnership, and the proposed agreement outlines the service details. The agreement in no way commits the Police Department to having to staff an officer if unable to do so for a variety of reasons.
The terms of the agreement run through June 30, 2026, with an option for the agreement to be extended for two additional years. The District will reimburse the City for the cost of officers, and the cost will increase annually, commensurate with the rates charged by the City’s comprehensive annual fee schedule. It is the City’s policy that City Council approve inter-governmental agency agreements.
BUDGET IMPACT:
The annual revenue generated by this agreement is expected to be negligible, with no negative budgetary impact.
ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION:
This action is not a project subject to CEQA, because it can be seen with certainty that it will not cause a physical change in the environment. (Public Resources Code Section 21065.)
NOTICE PROVIDED
All meeting noticing requirements were met.

MEETING DATE: December 4, 2023
SUBJECT:
Child Care Facilities Fund Loan for Improvements at 2575 Flores Street – Agreement RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt a Resolution to approve a Child Care Facilities Fund loan of $430,000 to Mighty Tiger Preschool, LLC for tenant improvements at 2575 Flores Street, Suite 1, San Mateo to establish a new child care facility, and authorize the City Manager to execute the loan agreement, promissory note, short form deed of trust and agreement containing covenants affecting real property and all related documents in such a manner that does not substantially change the loan terms.
BACKGROUND:
The Child Care Facilities Fund was originally established in 2004 with the Child Care Development Fee to address the critical need for more childcare spaces in the City. It took several years to receive sufficient fee revenue to facilitate financial assistance for projects that result in an increase in new, licensed, and high-quality childcare spaces. In October 2018, the City Council approved the Interim Child Care Fund Guidelines and authorized the release of a Notice of Funding Available (NOFA) in 2019, making San Mateo the first jurisdiction in the County to offer funds for childcare construction.
That NOFA resulted in the completion of three childcare projects which created a total of 98 new, licensed childcare spaces; with six of those spaces dedicated for infants of low-income families, which helps address a critical childcare need.
Despite several challenges for each of the borrowers, the three projects completed construction and opened during the first two years of the Covid-19 pandemic with limited capacity. The three completed facilities continue to operate and have been increasing their attendance as conditions and staffing allow.
The 2019 NOFA experience provided lessons and new ideas. There has been a longtime need for greater amount of information and assistance for potential childcare providers who are interested in starting or expanding their businesses.
With feedback and advocacy from childcare professionals and the lessons learned from the first completed projects, the City developed a comprehensive program for creating child care facilities. The first and most important tool is the new Child Care Start Up Guide, which is available in both English and Spanish. This publication is available on the City’s website (www.cityofsanmateo.org/childcarefacilitiesfund ) and helps identify important definitions, key steps and information about local and state requirements, and to navigate the City's permit process.
The Site Assessment Report is a unique service offered by the City that was created in response to the common questions received by potential child care providers and offers the most important information needed when selecting a location for a child care facility. This is a service available for anyone who is prepared with some basic information of the location and plans for the facility and needs help in determining if a potential property or location is viable. The site assessment is conducted by a collaborative of several divisions of the Community Development Department including the childcare facilities loan program staff, a plan checker, a building inspector, and a planner; a fire inspector with the San Mateo Consolidated Fire Department; and a representative from the Public Works Engineering team. This is a free and valuable opportunity for a cross-department service from City staff, especially for those who may not be as familiar with the various

requirements specific to childcare facilities. It is intended to provide a broad summary of the conditions, requirements, and/or recommendations that can help inform the viability of a potential location. Loan applicants are required to complete this assessment to use for project planning and budgeting.
For those interested in obtaining financial assistance, the City has a variety of methods. To date, the primary method has been secured loans. The funds are legally restricted to capital expenditures only which is limited to construction and elements that are fixed in the property. The funds may not be used for operational or programmatic expenditures. These loans are available to childcare providers and/or developers to specifically develop, expand, or otherwise enhance childcare facilities resulting in new licensed child care spaces. The benefits to the loan option are that the terms include zero percent interest, deferred/no payments, and a loan forgiveness schedule based on the amount of money borrowed.
The loan forgiveness is contingent upon consistently meeting the annual performance requirements.
The City completed a comprehensive fee study in 2021 that included updates for applicability and increase of the Child Care Development Fee and adopted Municipal Code Chapter 23.65 Child Care Development Fee. The City Council revised the Interim Child Care Fund Guidelines in August 2022 to include the revised fee, new ordinance, additional information about the loan terms, and program processes. Upon approval of the interim guidelines, the Child Care Facility Fund (CCFF) program was initiated and was made available to applicants on a first-come first-serve basis with a priority for requests from projects that are the most “shovel ready”. The Child Care Development Fee that was adopted for FY 2023-2024 is $4,677.29 for a new single-family residential unit and $3,373.46 for a new multi-family unit. For new commercial development, which includes retail, office, industrial and hotels, the fee ranges from $0.14 to $0.67 per square-foot of new floor area.
DISCUSSION:
On April 12, 2023, Geoffrey Choy and Ruth H. Choy were the first applicants for the new CCFF program who inquired about obtaining a loan. Ms. Choy is an elementary teacher and operated a licensed small family childcare business in Belmont.
That business expanded to the current large family childcare business, which is currently running at full capacity. They have identified a new location at 2575 Flores Street in San Mateo to expand their business to create a new childcare center. They are in the process of obtaining a Child Care Center License and will transfer their existing Large Family Child Care Home license to the child care center license. Mr. Choy has a business background in small business lending and many years of project management with the federal government, the nonprofit sector, and the tech sector.
Prior to their inquiry, Mr. Choy had already reviewed the CCFF program materials and submitted his request for the Site Assessment Report with his inquiry. The assessment was completed onsite on May 4, 2023, including Mr. Choy, City staff, and Mr. Choy’s selected architect for his project. The report outcome supported the determination that the proposed location is viable, concurrent with the plans of the applicants. With a viable location confirmed, the next step was for the applicants to complete and submit the loan application, which was submitted on May 30, 2023.
Staff reviewed the initial application and provided follow up questions, along with recommended adjustments to the requested budget. Mr. Choy provided adequate responses that supported a complete application. Upon determination of a complete application, the staff committee of the Interim Department Director, Housing Manager, and Sr. Management Analyst assessed the application. The committee had some clarifying questions regarding the project completion timeline and received the subsequent satisfactory responses.
With the determination of the loan application as viable, the committee recommends City Council approval of the $430,000 loan to Mighty Tiger Preschool, LLC, resulting in 48 new licensed childcare spaces per the Resolution in Attachment 1. This loan and tenant improvements are comparable to one of the earlier project loans provided by the CCFF program, which was for $464,000. The borrowers will be required to enforce prevailing wage requirements in accordance with California law, and the loan forgiveness period will be 10 years. The documents to process the loan are included as Exhibit 1. Property owner CBR Flores LLC has reviewed the loan and understands that the agreement is effective upon the executing signature of the City. The termination of the loan agreement will occur on the earlier of: (1) the borrower satisfying the Program Requirements for ten (10) years during the Term, in which case the entire Loan amount shall be forgiven; (2) the full repayment of the loan; or (3) thirty (30) years after the effective date.

Borrower’s obligation to repay the Loan is evidenced by the Note.
Section 2.2 Interest.

Upon the occurrence of an Event of a Default, interest on the outstanding principal balance of the Loan will begin to accrue, beginning on the date of such occurrence and continuing until the date the Loan is repaid in full or the Event of Default is cured, at which time the accrued interest shall be automatically forgiven at the Default Rate.
Section 2.3 Use of Loan Funds.
Borrower shall use the Loan for the construction of the Development consistent with the Approved Development Budget. Borrower may not use the Loan proceeds for any other purposes without the prior written consent of the City.
Section 2.4 Security.
In consideration of the Loan, Borrower shall: (a) secure its obligation to repay the Loan, as evidenced by the Note, by executing the Deed of Trust, and cause or permit it to be recorded as a lien against the Collateral Property, and (b) execute the Regulatory Agreement, and cause or permit it to be recorded against the Property.
Section 2.5 Subordination.
(a) Any agreement by the City to subordinate the Deed of Trust and/or Regulatory Agreement to an encumbrance securing and/or evidencing any loan obtained by Borrower to finance the Development (each, a “Senior Loan”) shall be subject to the satisfaction of each of the following conditions:
(1) All of the proceeds of the Senior Loan, less any transaction costs, are used to provide acquisition, construction and/or permanent financing for the Development. (2) The lender of the Senior Loan is a state or federally chartered financial institution, a nonprofit corporation or a public entity that is not affiliated with Borrower or any of Borrower’s affiliates, other than as a depositor or a lender.

135 of 268
10 660\01\2564992.4
the Loan Documents. To satisfy this requirement, Borrower must provide to the City, in addition to any other information reasonably required by the City, evidence demonstrating that the proposed amount of the Senior Loan is necessary to provide adequate acquisition, construction, and/or permanent financing to ensure the viability of the Development, and adequate financing for the Development would not be available without the proposed subordination. (4) The subordination agreement(s) is structured to minimize the risk that the Deed of Trust and the Regulatory Agreement will be extinguished as a result of a foreclosure by the holder of the Senior Loan. To satisfy this requirement, the subordination agreement must provide the City with adequate rights to cure any defaults by Borrower, including: (i) providing the City or its successor with copies of any notices of default at the same time and in the same manner as provided to Borrower; and (ii) providing the City with a cure period of at least sixty (60) days to cure any default. (5) The subordination(s) of the Loan is effective only during the original term of the Senior Loan and any extension of its term that is approved in writing by the City.
(6) The subordination does not limit the effect of the Deed of Trust and the Regulatory Agreement before a foreclosure, nor require the consent of the Bank prior to the City exercising any remedies available to the City under the Loan Documents. (b) Upon a determination by the City Manager that the conditions in this Section have been satisfied, the City Manager, or his/her designee, will be authorized to execute the approved subordination agreement without the necessity of any further action or approval.

The Borrower’s submission of, and the City’s approval of, the Annual Report is a condition precedent to the annual forgiveness of the Loan (if any). In the event the City disapproves of an Annual Report, then the City shall deliver, within sixty (60) days after receipt of the Annual Report, a written notice to the Borrower setting forth, in reasonable detail, the reasons for the City’s disapproval.

In addition to such Annual Report, Borrower shall deliver such other information regarding the Development the City may reasonably request from time to time during the Term, including, but not limited to any litigation affecting the Borrower or the Property, or any notices from any licensing agency.
Section 3.2 Hazardous Materials.
(a) Borrower shall keep and maintain the Property (including but not limited to, soil and ground water conditions) in compliance with all Hazardous Materials Laws and may not cause or permit the Property to be in violation of any Hazardous Materials Law. Borrower may not cause or permit the use, generation, manufacture, storage or disposal of on, under, or about the Property or transportation to or from the Property of any Hazardous Materials, except such of the foregoing as may be customarily used in projects like the Development or kept and used in and about property of this type.
(b) Borrower shall immediately advise the City in writing if at any time it receives written notice of any Hazardous Materials Claims, and Borrower’s discovery of any occurrence or condition on any real property adjoining or in the vicinity of the Property that could cause the Property or any part thereof to be subject to California Health and Safety Code, Section 25220 et seq., or any regulation adopted in accordance therewith, or to be otherwise
143 of 268
18 660\01\2564992.4
subject to any restrictions on the ownership, occupancy, transferability or use of the Property under any Hazardous Materials Law.
(c) The City has the right to join and participate in, as a party if it so elects, and be represented by counsel acceptable to the City (or counsel of its own choice if a conflict exists with Borrower) in any legal proceedings or actions initiated in connection with any Hazardous Materials Claims and to have its reasonable attorneys’ fees in connection therewith paid by Borrower.
(d) Borrower shall indemnify and hold harmless the City and its board members, supervisors, directors, officers, employees, agents, successors and assigns from and against any loss, damage, cost, fine, penalty, judgment, award, settlement, expense or liability, directly or indirectly arising out of or attributable to: (1) any actual or alleged past or present violation of any Hazardous Materials Law; (2) any Hazardous Materials Claim; (3) any actual or alleged past or present use, generation, manufacture, storage, release, threatened release, discharge, disposal, transportation, or presence of Hazardous Materials on, under, or about the Property; (4) any investigation, cleanup, remediation, removal, or restoration work of site conditions of the Property relating to Hazardous Materials (whether on the Property or any other property); and (5) the breach of any representation of warranty by or covenant of Borrower in this Section 3.5, and Section 4.1(l). Such indemnity shall include, without limitation: (A) all consequential damages; (B) the costs of any required or necessary investigation, repair, cleanup or detoxification of the Property and the preparation and implementation of any closure, remedial or other required plans; and (z) all reasonable costs and expenses incurred by the City in connection with clauses (A) and (B), including but not limited to reasonable attorneys’ fees and consultant fees except to the extent caused by the City’s active negligence or willful misconduct.
This indemnification applies whether or not any government agency has issued a cleanup order.
Losses, claims, costs, suits, liability, and expenses covered by this indemnification provision include, but are not limited to: (1) losses attributable to diminution in the value of the Property, (2) loss or restriction of use of rentable space on the Property and/or the Collateral Property, (3) adverse effect on the marketing of any rental space on the Property, and (4) penalties and fines levied by, and remedial or enforcement actions of any kind issued by any regulatory agency (including but not limited to the costs of any required testing, remediation, repair, removal, cleanup or detoxification of the Property and/or the Collateral Property and surrounding properties). This obligation to indemnify will survive termination of this Agreement and will not be diminished or affected in any respect as a result of any notice, disclosure, knowledge, if any, to or by the City of Hazardous Materials.
(e) Without the City’s prior written consent, which will not be unreasonably withheld, Borrower may not take any remedial action in response to the presence of any Hazardous Materials on, under or about the Property, nor enter into any settlement agreement, consent decree, or other compromise in respect to any Hazardous Material Claims, which remedial action, settlement, consent decree or compromise might, in the City’s judgment, impair the value of the City's security hereunder; provided, however, that the City’s prior consent is not necessary in the event that the presence of Hazardous Materials on, under, or about the Property either poses an immediate threat to the health, safety or welfare of any individual or is of such a nature that an immediate remedial response is necessary and it is not reasonably possible to obtain the City’s consent before taking such action, provided that in such event Borrower shall
144 of 268
19 660\01\2564992.4
notify the City as soon as practicable of any action so taken. The City agrees not to withhold its consent, where such consent is required hereunder, if: (i) a particular remedial action is ordered by a court of competent jurisdiction; (ii) Borrower will or may be subjected to civil or criminal sanctions or penalties if it fails to take a required action; (iii) Borrower establishes to the reasonable satisfaction of the City that there is no reasonable alternative to such remedial action which would result in less impairment of the City’s security hereunder; or (iv) the action has been agreed to by the City.
(f) Borrower hereby acknowledges and agrees that: (1) this Section is intended as the City’s written request for information (and Borrower’s response) concerning the environmental condition of the Property as required by California Code of Civil Procedure Section 726.5; and (2) each representation and warranty in this Agreement (together with any indemnity obligation applicable to a breach of any such representation and warranty) with respect to the environmental condition of the Property is intended by the Parties to be an “environmental provision” for purposes of California Code of Civil Procedure Section 736. (g) In the event that any portion of the Property is determined to be “environmentally impaired” (as that term is defined in California Code of Civil Procedure Section 726.5(e)(3)) or to be an “affected parcel” (as that term is defined in California Code of Civil Procedure Section 726.5(e)(1)), then, without otherwise limiting or in any way affecting the City’s or the trustee’s rights and remedies under the Deed of Trust, the City may elect to exercise its rights under California Code of Civil Procedure Section 726.5(a) to: (1) waive its lien on such environmentally impaired or affected portion of the Property; and (2) exercise, (A) the rights and remedies of an unsecured creditor, including reduction of its claim against Borrower to judgment, and (B) any other rights and remedies permitted by law. For purposes of determining the City’s right to proceed as an unsecured creditor under California Code of Civil Procedure Section 726.5(a), Borrower will be deemed to have willfully permitted or acquiesced in a release or threatened release of Hazardous Materials, within the meaning of California Code of Civil Procedure Section 726.5(d)(1), if the release or threatened release of Hazardous Materials was knowingly or negligently caused or contributed to by any lessee, occupant, or user of any portion of the Property and Borrower knew or should have known of the activity by such lessee, occupant, or user which caused or contributed to the release or threatened release. All costs and expenses, including (but not limited to) attorneys’ fees, incurred by the City in connection with any action commenced under this paragraph, including any action required by California Code of Civil Procedure Section 726.5(b) to determine the degree to which the Property is environmentally impaired, plus interest thereon at the Default Rate, until paid, will be added to the indebtedness secured by the Deed of Trust and is due and payable to the City upon its demand made at any time following the conclusion of such action.
Section 3.3 Maintenance; Damage and Destruction.
(a) During the course of construction and operation of the Development Borrower shall maintain the Development and the Property in good repair and in a neat, clean and orderly condition. If there arises a condition in contravention of this requirement, and if Borrower has not cured such condition within thirty (30) days after receiving a City notice of such a condition, then in addition to any other rights available to the City, the City may perform all acts necessary to cure such condition, and to establish or enforce a lien or other encumbrance against the Property, subject to the provisions provided in subsection (b) below.
145 of 268
20 660\01\2564992.4
(b) Subject to the requirements of senior lenders, and if economically feasible in the City’s judgment after consultation with Borrower, if any improvement now or in the future on the Property is damaged or destroyed, then Borrower shall, at its cost and expense, diligently undertake to repair or restore such improvement consistent with the plans and specifications approved by the City with such changes as have been approved by the City. Such work or repair is to be commenced no later than the later of one hundred twenty (120) days, or such longer period approved by the City in writing, after the damage or loss occurs or thirty (30) days following receipt of the insurance proceeds, and is to be complete within one (1) year thereafter.
Any insurance proceeds collected for such damage or destruction are to be applied to the cost of such repairs or restoration and, if such insurance proceeds are insufficient for such purpose, then Borrower shall make up the deficiency. If Borrower does not promptly make such repairs then any insurance proceeds collected for such damage or destruction are to be promptly delivered by Borrower to the City as a special repayment of the Loan, subject to the rights of the senior lenders, if any.
Section 3.4 Fees and Taxes.
Borrower is solely responsible for payment of all fees, assessments, taxes, charges, and levies imposed by any public authority or utility company with respect to the Property or the Development, and shall pay such charges prior to delinquency. However, Borrower is not required to pay and discharge any such charge so long as: (a) the legality thereof is being contested diligently and in good faith and by appropriate proceedings; and (b) if requested by the City, Borrower deposits with the City any funds or other forms of assurance that the City in good faith from time to time determines appropriate to protect the City from the consequences of the contest being unsuccessful.
Section 3.5 Operation of Development as Childcare Facility.
Borrower shall operate the Development as a childcare facility consistent with: (a) the Regulatory Agreement; and (b) any other regulatory requirements imposed on the Borrower or the Property, including, but not limited to, obtaining and maintaining any required license(s).
Section 3.6 Nondiscrimination.
Borrower covenants by and for itself and its successors and assigns that there will be no discrimination against or segregation of a person or of a group of persons on account of race, color, religion, creed, age, familial status, disability, sex, sexual orientation, marital status, ancestry or national origin in the admission of users of the Development, nor may Borrower or any person claiming under or through Borrower establish or permit any such practice or practices of discrimination.

151 of 268
26 660\01\2564992.4
Agreement, and the other Loan Documents. Such remedies include but are not limited to the following:
(a) Acceleration of Note. The City may cause all indebtedness of Borrower to the City under this Agreement and the Note, together with any accrued interest thereon, to become immediately due and payable. Borrower waives all right to presentment, demand, protest or notice of protest or dishonor. The City may proceed to enforce payment of the indebtedness and to exercise any or all rights afforded to the City as a creditor and secured party under the law including the Uniform Commercial Code, including foreclosure under the Deed of Trust. Borrower is liable to pay the City on demand all reasonable expenses, costs and fees (including, without limitation, reasonable attorney’s fees and expenses) paid or incurred by the City in connection with the collection of the Loan and the preservation, maintenance, protection, sale, or other disposition of the security given for the Loan.

Section 5.3 Right of Contest.
Borrower may contest in good faith any claim, demand, levy, or assessment the assertion of which would constitute an Event of Default hereunder. Any such contest is to be prosecuted diligently and in a manner unprejudicial to the City or the rights of the City hereunder.

No right, power, or remedy given to the City by the terms of this Agreement or the other Loan Documents is intended to be exclusive of any other right, power, or remedy; and each and every such right, power, or remedy is cumulative and in addition to every other right, power, or remedy given to the City by the terms of any such instrument, or by any statute or otherwise against Borrower and any other person. Neither the failure nor any delay on the part of the City to exercise any such rights and remedies will operate as a waiver thereof, nor does any single or partial exercise by the City of any such right or remedy preclude any other or further exercise of such right or remedy, or any other right or remedy.

PROMISSORY NOTE
(San Mateo-Child Care Loan Program)
$430,000 San Mateo, California
____________________, 20____
FOR VALUE RECEIVED, MIGHTY TIGER PRESCHOOL, a California Limited Liability Company ("Borrower"), promises to pay to the City of San Mateo, a California municipal corporation ("Holder"), the principal sum of four hundred thirty thousand Dollars ($430,000) plus interest thereon pursuant to Section 2 below. All capitalized terms used but not defined in this Promissory Note (the "Note") have the meanings set forth in the Loan Agreement (as defined below).
1. Borrower's Obligation. This Note evidences the Borrower's obligation to pay the Holder the principal amount of four hundred thirty thousand Dollars ($430,000) loaned to Borrower by Holder pursuant to that certain Loan Agreement between Borrower and Holder of even date herewith (the "Loan Agreement").
2. Interest. Except as otherwise set forth herein, this Note does not bear interest. If a Default occurs, interest on the principal balance will begin to accrue as of the date of Default (following expiration of applicable notice and cure periods) and continuing until such time as the Loan funds are repaid in full or the Default is cured, at which time the accrued interest shall be automatically forgiven at the default rate of the lesser of ten percent (10%), compounded annually, or the highest rate permitted by law.
3. Term and Repayment Requirements. Annual forgiveness and payments due under this Note, if any, are due in accordance with this Note and as set forth in Section 2.7 of the Loan Agreement.
4. No Assumption. This Note is not assumable by the successors and assigns of Borrower without the prior written consent of the Holder, except as may be otherwise set forth in the Loan Agreement.
5. Security. This Note is secured by that certain Short Form Deed of Trust and Assignment of Rents (the "Deed of Trust") wherein the Borrower is the trustor and the Holder is the beneficiary.
6. Terms of Payment.
(1) Borrower shall make all payments due under this Note in currency of the United States of America to Holder at the City of San Mateo, 330 W. 20th Avenue, San Mateo, CA 94403, Attn: Community Development Department, or such other place as Holder may from time to time designate.
166 of 268
2 660\01\2572024.1
(a) All payments on this Note are without expense to Holder. Borrower shall pay all costs and expenses, including reconveyance fees and reasonable attorney's fees of Holder, incurred in connection with the payment of this Note and the release of any security hereof.
(b) Notwithstanding any other provision of this Note, or any instrument securing the obligations of Borrower under this Note, if, for any reason whatsoever, the payment of any sums by Borrower pursuant to the terms of this Note would result in the payment of interest that exceeds the amount that Holder may legally charge under the laws of the State of California, then the amount by which payments exceed the lawful interest rate will automatically be deducted from the principal balance owing on this Note, so that in no event is Borrower obligated under the terms of this Note to pay any interest that would exceed the lawful rate.
(c) The obligations of Borrower under this Note are absolute and Borrower waives any and all rights to offset, deduct or withhold any payments or charges due under this Note for any reason whatsoever.
(d) Upon recordation of the Deed of Trust, this Note will be nonrecourse to the Borrower, pursuant to and except as provided in Section 2.8 of the Loan Agreement.
7. Default.
(a) The entire unpaid principal balance, together with all interest thereon, and together with all other sums payable under this Note, shall at the option of the Holder become immediately due and payable without further demand, upon occurrence of:

(b) The Holder's failure to exercise the remedy set forth in Subsection 7(a) above or any other remedy provided by law upon the occurrence of a default will not constitute a waiver of the right to exercise any remedy at any subsequent time in respect to the same or any other default.

AGREEMENT CONTAINING COVENANTS AFFECTING REAL PROPERTY
(Child Care Loan Program)
This Agreement Containing Covenants Affecting Real Property (this "Agreement") is made and entered into as of _________________, 20___ (the "Effective Date"), by and between the City of San Mateo, a California municipal corporation (the "City"), MIGHTY TIGER PRESCHOOL, LLC a California Limited Liability Company, and its successors or assigns (collectively, the “Child Care Operator”), and CBR Flores LLC, a California Limited Liability Company (the “Owner”), with reference to the following facts, purposes, and understandings.
RECITALS
A. The Child Care Operator will operate a child care facility on that certain real property located at 2575 Flores St, Suite 1, San Mateo, CA 94403 in the City of San Mateo, County of San Mateo, State of California, as more particularly described in Exhibit A and also known by Assessor Parcel Number 039-371-370 (the “Child Care Facility” as further defined below).
B. Owner owns a fee title interest in the real property and the improvements located at 2575 Flores St, San Mateo, CA 94403 in the City of San Mateo, County of San Mateo, State of California, as more particularly described in Exhibit A (collectively, the “Property”).
C. The Child Care Operator and the City are parties to that certain Loan Agreement dated as of ______________, 20___ (the "Loan Agreement"). Pursuant to the Loan Agreement, the City has made a loan to the Child Care Operator in the amount four hundred thirty thousand Dollars ($430,000) (the "Loan") for the development of an approximately three thousand three hundred seven (3,307) square foot childcare facility providing child care services for up to forty-eight (48) participants (the "Child Care Facility").
D. In addition to this Agreement, the Loan is evidenced by certain loan documents, as more particularly set forth in the Loan Agreement (collectively, the "Loan Documents"), including, but not limited to a deed of trust executed by the Child Care Operator, as trustor, in Exhibit 4
179 of 268
4870-5435-6876v1 2
favor of the City, as beneficiary, recorded against the Collateral Property (the "Deed of Trust") in the official records of the County of San Mateo (the "Official Records"). The City, the Owner, and the Child Care Operator desire to enter into this Agreement to set forth their mutual understandings regarding the use of a portion of the Property for the Child Care Facility.
THEREFORE, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged, the City, the Child Care Operator, and the Owner (each a "Party", and, collectively, the "Parties") hereby agree as follows.
Section 1. Use Restriction. The Child Care Facility shall be used as a licensed child care facility providing child care services for up to forty-eight (48) participants, including eight (8) spaces for participants whose income does not exceed eighty percent (80%) of area median income for the County of San Mateo, in accordance with the Loan Documents (the "Permitted Use"). No other use of the Child Care Facility that is inconsistent with the Permitted Use is permitted by this Agreement. Owner and Child Care Operator acknowledge that the City made the Loan to the Child Care Operator, pursuant to the Loan Documents, in consideration for, and in reliance on, the Owner’s and Child Care Operator's obligation to restrict the Child Care Facility for the Permitted Use, in accordance with this Agreement, and that the City would not have agreed to make the Loan without the Owner’s and Child Care Operator's execution of, and obligation to comply with, this Agreement. The use restriction of the Permitted Use applies only to the ground floor (Suite 1) of the Property. The second floor of the Property is currently leased to another tenant and not part of the Permitted Use.
Section 2. Term of Agreement. The term of this Agreement shall commence as of the Effective Date and shall expire on the day that is ten (10) years from the Effective Date (the "Term"). This Agreement shall automatically terminate (without further action of the Parties) upon the expiration of the Term, and as evidenced by the reconveyance of the Deed of Trust; provided, however, upon the written request of the Child Care Operator, following the expiration of the Term, the City shall promptly execute a release, termination or similar document necessary to cause the release of this Agreement as an encumbrance on the title of the Property.
The Child Care Operator shall be solely liable and responsible for all costs and expenses related to the removal of this Agreement as an encumbrance against the Property following the expiration of the Term. Any damage to, or destruction of, the Child Care Facility shall have no impact on the Term. The Permitted Use shall terminate upon expiration of the Term or in the event of default, after the tenant default and lender cure period described below.
Section 3. Violations by Child Care Operator and Owner. The use of the Child Care Facility for any use other than the Permitted Use, in accordance with the requirements of this Agreement, shall be a violation of this Agreement. The failure of the Child Care Operator and/or Owner to cure any default in the Child Care Operator's obligations under the terms of this Agreement within thirty (30) days after the delivery of a written notice of default from the City or Owner, or such longer period of time up to an additional sixty (60) days as may be necessary to remedy such default, provided that the Child Care Operator has commenced action during the thirty (30) days necessary to remedy such default and the Child Care Operator is proceeding with reasonable diligence to remedy such default, will constitute a default under this Agreement. In
180 of 268
4870-5435-6876v1 3
the event of default by the Child Care Operator, Owner shall have right to replace the Child Care Operator with a new child care operator tenant following the end of the cure period.
Section 4. Remedies.
(a) Subject to the applicable notice and cure period set forth above, the City may exercise any and all remedies available to it under the Loan Documents, or otherwise available at law or equity, with respect to the Child Care Operator's or Owner’s failure to satisfy the terms of this Agreement. Child Care Operator and Owner acknowledge that any breach in Child Care Operator's performance of Child Care Operator's obligations under this Agreement would frustrate the public policy objectives desired by the City pursuant to the Loan Documents, and shall cause irreparable harm to the City. Therefore, Child Care Operator and Owner agree that the City is entitled to equitable relief in the form of specific performance, and that an award of damages may not be adequate to compensate the City for Child Care Operator's or Owner’s failure to perform according to the terms of this Agreement. The City, in its sole and absolute discretion, may elect the appropriate remedy for Child Care Operator's default under this Agreement. The City, in its sole and absolute discretion, may elect the appropriate remedy for Owner's default under this Agreement.
(b) The City may exercise any and all remedies available to it at law or equity with respect to Owner’s failure to have the Child Care Facility used for the Permitted Use for the Term of this Agreement.
Section 5. Covenants to Run With the Land. The Parties hereby declare their express intent that the covenants and restrictions set forth in this Agreement shall run with the land, and shall bind all successors in title to the Property, provided, however, that on the expiration of the Term said covenants and restrictions shall expire. Throughout the Term, each and every contract, deed or other instrument hereafter executed covering or conveying the Property or any portion thereof shall be held conclusively to have been executed, delivered and accepted subject to such covenants and restrictions, regardless of whether such covenants or restrictions are set forth in such contract, deed or other instrument, unless the City expressly releases such conveyed portion of the Property from the requirements of this Agreement. All of the provisions of this Agreement shall be enforceable as equitable servitudes and shall constitute covenants running with the land pursuant to applicable laws, including without limitation Section 1468 of the California Civil Code. Each covenant to do, or to refrain from doing, some act on the Property hereunder: (a) is for the benefit of the Property and is a burden on the Property, (b) runs with the Property, and (c) is binding upon each Party and each successive Child Care Operator during its operation of the Child Care Facility at the Property or any portion thereof, and shall be a benefit to and a burden upon each Party and the Property hereunder and each other person or entity succeeding in an interest to the Property.
Section 6. Recording and Filing. The Parties shall cause this Agreement, and all amendments and supplements to it (if any), to be recorded against the Property in the Official Records.
181 of 268
4870-5435-6876v1 4
Section 7. Amendments, Modifications, and Waivers. This Agreement may not be amended, modified or changed, nor shall any waiver of any provision hereof be effective, except by an instrument in writing and signed by the Parties.
Section 8. Waiver. In accordance with Section 7 above, the City may (but shall not be obligated to) waive any obligation imposed on the Owner and/or Child Care Operator pursuant to this Agreement; provided, however, the City's waiver of any term, covenant, or condition shall not be deemed to be a waiver of such term, covenant or condition of any subsequent breach of the same or any other term, covenant or condition. The City's failure to exercise any right, option or privilege hereunder shall not be deemed a waiver of such right, option or privilege nor shall it relieve the Owner and/or Child Care Operator from: (1) their obligation to perform each and every covenant and condition on their part to be performed, or (2) from any damages or other remedy for failure to perform the obligations of this Agreement.
Section 9. Entire Understanding of the Parties. This Agreement constitutes the entire understanding and agreement of the Parties with respect to the use of the Improvements on the Property. In the event of any conflict between the terms of this Agreement and the Loan Documents, the terms of this Agreement shall prevail. The Parties and their counsel have read and reviewed this Agreement and agree that any rule of construction to the effect that ambiguities are to be resolved against the drafting party (including, but not limited to Civil Code Section 1654, as may be amended from time to time) shall not apply to the interpretation of this Agreement.
Section 10. Severability. If any term, provision, covenant or condition of this Agreement is held in a final disposition by a court of competent jurisdiction to be invalid, void or unenforceable, the remaining provisions shall continue in full force and effect.
Section 11. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of California, without reference to conflict of laws principles. In the event that suit shall be brought by either Party to this Agreement, the Parties agree that venue shall be exclusively vested in the state courts of the County of San Mateo, and the Parties consent to the personal and exclusive jurisdiction and venue of such court.
Section 12. Time. In all matters under this Agreement, the Parties agree that time is of the essence. References in this Agreement to days shall be to calendar days, unless otherwise indicated. If the last day of any period to give or reply to a notice, meet a deadline or undertake any other action occurs on a day that is not a day of the week on which the City of San Mateo is open to the public for carrying on substantially all business functions (a "Business Day"), then the last day for giving or replying to such notice, meeting such deadline or undertaking any such other action shall be the next succeeding Business Day. In no event shall a Saturday or Sunday be considered a Business Day.
Section 13. Notice. All notices given or certificates delivered under this Agreement shall be in writing and be deemed received on the delivery, or refusal, date shown on the delivery receipt, if: (i) personally delivered, (ii) mailed by certified mail, return receipt requested, postage prepaid, addressed as shown below, or (iii) delivered by reputable overnight delivery service with a receipt showing date of delivery.

MEETING DATE: December 4, 2023
SUBJECT:
CalRecycle – Grant Applications
RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt a Resolution to approve the submission of grant applications to the California Department of Resources Recycling and Recovery; and authorize the City Manager, or Solid Waste Supervisor as designee, to execute all required documentation necessary for the grant application process.
BACKGROUND:
The California Department of Resources Recycling and Recovery (CalRecycle) is a branch of the California Environmental Protection Agency that oversees the state's waste management, recycling, and waste reduction programs. City staff work closely with CalRecycle to meet its waste diversion goals for recycling and compost, construction and demolition recycling, mattress and tire collection, illegal dumping, and other state mandates.
When eligible, the City’s Solid Waste program submits grant applications to receive grant money from CalRecycle for promotion of waste diversion and help defray the costs to implement the requirements of SB 1383. SB 1383 is California’s Short Term Pollutants Reduction legislation, which seeks to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by reducing the amount of organics sent to landfill in the state. The City receives grants to promote recycling through the City/County Payment Program and uses this money for staff time and supplies to promote waste diversion at our special events, Music in the Park, B St. Nights, Beresford shredding/e-waste events, and the Bayfront Cleanup.
The City also receives money through the Cal Recycle Local Assistance Grant to defray some of the costs to implement SB 1383. These costs include recycled organics waste products procurement, education and outreach, and contamination analysis. In the next grant cycle, the City is on target to receive approximately $188,000 to be spent for SB 1383 implementation over the next two years.
To process our applications and receive these funds, CalRecycle requires the City of San Mateo to adopt a resolution authorizing the submission of applications and, if awarded, the administration of the funds. The resolution would authorize the execution of grant agreements and related documentation and will meet the CalRecycle grant application requirements for a time period of five years from the date of the Resolution.
BUDGET IMPACT:
There is currently no budgetary impact associated with this action, however not approving the resolution for grants with CalRecycle will cause the City not to receive the anticipated $188,000. If a Grant is awarded, a future request of Council will be appropriation of the grant funding to the Waste Disposal program in the Solid Waste Fund.

ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION:
This action by the City in passing a resolution allowing receipt of State money and submission of grant applications 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).)

RESOLUTION NO. ____ (2023)
AUTHORIZING SUBMITTAL OF APPLICATION(S) FOR ALL CALRECYCLE GRANTS FOR WHICH THE CITY OF SAN
MATEO IS ELIGIBLE
WHEREAS, Public Resources Code sections 48000 et seq. authorizes the Department of Resources Recycling and Recovery (CalRecycle) to administer various grant programs (Grants) in furtherance of the State of California’s efforts to reduce, recycle and reuse solid waste generated in the state thereby preserving landfill capacity and protecting public health and safety and the environment; and WHEREAS, in furtherance of this authority CalRecycle is required to establish procedures governing the application, awarding, and management of Grants; and
WHEREAS, CalRecycle’s grant application procedures require, among other things, an applicant’s governing body to declare by resolution certain authorizations related to the administration of CalRecycle Grants.
NOW, THEREFORE, THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF SAN MATEO, CALIFORNIA, HEREBY RESOLVES that:
1. This action by the City in passing a resolution authorizing the submission of grant applications is not 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).)
2. The City Council authorizes the submittal of applications to CalRecycle for all grants for which the City of San Mateo is eligible.
3. The City Manager, or Solid Waste Supervisor as designee, is hereby authorized to execute all grant documents, including but not limited to, applications, agreements, amendments, and requests for payment, necessary to secure grant funds and implement the approved grant project on behalf of the City of San Mateo.

PREPARED BY: Parks and Recreation Department
MEETING DATE: Dec. 4, 2023
SUBJECT:
Fallen Heroes Memorial Artwork Fabrication – Appropriation and Agreement RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt a Resolution to authorize an appropriation in the amount of $103,400 from the Art in Public Places Fund to the Parks and Recreation Capital Improvement Project Central Park Fund for the fabrication of the Fallen Heroes Memorial artwork and approve a purchase agreement with Thomas-Swan Sign Company, Inc., for custom fabricated signage in an amount not to exceed $103,400; and authorize the Director of the Parks and Recreation to execute a purchase agreement in substantially the form presented.
BACKGROUND:
The City of San Mateo Municipal Code (23.60.030) states there is a fund known as the "Art in Public Places Fund" and that this fund shall be maintained by the City treasurer, and shall be used for the acquisition, installation, improvement, and maintenance of artwork to be displayed in the City, and the administration of the Art in Public Places Program.
The Parks and Recreation Department is constructing a Fallen Heroes Memorial at the direction of the City Council as part of the implementation of the Central Park Master Plan. Throughout the years, residents had been inquiring about where San Mateo has formal recognition for our fallen heroes and veterans. While there are six separate plaques scattered in Central Park recognizing veterans and service members, the City has no formal memorial. In response to community interest in 2015, Mayor Maureen Freschet recommended the creation of a memorial in Central Park to recognize all the City's Fallen Heroes, including public safety personnel. The San Mateo City Council unanimously agreed with the recommendation and directed that a Fallen Heroes Memorial be added to the Central Park Master Plan. An eleven- member steering committee, comprised of City Councilmembers, veterans, retired police and fire representatives, community members, and city staff was assembled to develop the memorial's concept.
The City contracted with RRM Design Group to develop a design concept for committee consideration. RRM returned with two concepts, including the Remembrance Poppy inspired by the national emblem of remembrance that was worn following World War I (Attachment 3). The Committee overwhelmingly chose the Remembrance Poppy which is the preferred design recommended to the Park and Recreation Commission. The City Council expressed unanimous support and approval for the design at its November 20, 2020, City Council Meeting, and later, at its May 17, 2021, meeting the Council appropriated $50,000 for construction of the memorial and approved the Fallen Heroes Recognition Policy. The design consists of seven vertical stainless-steel columns, each containing a segment of the poppy that, when viewed from a certain angle, will unite to form a single image. Each column will represent a branch of the military and the San Mateo Police and Fire Departments with engraved names of those who died in service.
Per the Purchasing Policy, the department conducted a public solicitation for quotes for the fabrication of the artwork and Thomas - Swan Sign Company, Inc. was chosen based on price and execution of previous work examples of similar scale.
Per Municipal Code Section 23.60.030, “Art In Public Places Fund,” the department gained unanimous approval from the Civic Arts Committee, at their November 13, 2023 meeting, to approve $94,000 plus a 10% contingency in the amount of
210 of 268
CITY OF SAN MATEO

$9,400 for a total of $103,400 for the fabrication of the Fallen Heroes Memorial artwork. Staff recommends that City Council approve the appropriation of the funds and authorize the Director of Parks and Recreation to execute a purchase agreement with Thomas - Swan Sign Company, Inc. in substantially the form presented inclusive of a 10% contingency.
BUDGET IMPACT:
There is sufficient funding available for the budget appropriation. The current fund balance of the Art in Public Places Fund stands at $999,946.84, with $294,567 appropriated (and available) by the Civic Arts Committee. This action will result in a reduction of this balance by $103,400.
ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION:
This budget appropriation 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).) The Fallen Heroes Memorial sitework is categorically exempt from CEQA as an “existing facility,” because it consists of the operation, repair, maintenance, permitting, leasing, licensing, or minor alteration of existing public or private structures, facilities, mechanical equipment, or topographical features, involving negligible or no expansion of use (CEQA Guidelines Section 15301) and because it consists of construction and location of limited numbers of new, small facilities or structures; installation of small new equipment and facilities in small structures; and the conversion of existing small structures from one use to another where only minor modifications are made in the exterior of the structure. (CEQA Guidelines Section 15303.)

MEETING DATE: December 04, 2023
SUBJECT:
Excess Workers' Compensation Insurance Policy for Calendar Years 2024 and 2025 – Purchase RECOMMENDATION:
Approve the purchase of excess workers' compensation insurance from Safety National in an amount projected to be $491,604.00 for the two-year period commencing January 1, 2024, and ending December 31, 2025.
BACKGROUND:
The City has been insured for excess workers' compensation coverage with Safety National since 2009. In September of 2023, we requested that our benefits broker, Newfront, issue a bid request for coverage. The market for excess coverage in California is quite limited. Of the carriers contacted during the renewal process last year, only Safety National submitted a quote. Another carrier, Arch Insurance Co., indicated that they might be interested, but the premium they mentioned is significantly higher for the same level of self-insured retention. Municipal Code 3.60.050(c) provides that the City can forgo the competitive bidding process related to the placement of insurance coverage.
Based on the information provided by Newfront, Safety National is now again offering a two-year policy; this type of policy was not offered during the years 2020 through 2023. Our current policy provides workers' compensation liability limits of $25 million with a $2 million employer liability limit and a self-insured retention (SIR) of $1 million for each occurrence.
There is a $500,000 corridor deductible.
There are two options available for renewal:
Option 1: Renew Workers’ Compensation Excess Coverage Policy with Safety National for a period of one (1) year. The premium quoted by Safety National for a one-year policy is $245,802.00, which is an 8.64% increase compared to the premium for the current year ($226,244.00). Workers’ compensation liability limits will remain unchanged.
Option 2: Renew Workers’ Compensation Excess Coverage Policy with Safety National for a period of two (2) years. The premium quoted by Safety National for a two-year rate guarantee policy is $491,604.00 ($245,802.00 for the first year and $245,802.00 for the second year), which is an 8.64% increase in the first year of the policy compared to the premium for the current year ($226,244.00) and remains at the same for the second year of the policy, at $245,802.00 (0% increase in the premium). Workers’ compensation liability limits will remain unchanged compared to the current year policy. This option allows the City to avoid rate increase for the Workers’ Compensation Excess Coverage Policy in 2025.
To keep the premium at the same level for the second year of the policy, several conditions must be met, such as:
•Program Commitment Agreement is signed by the Employer and returned to Safety National within 60 days following the effective date of the Current Period.
227 of 268
CITY OF SAN MATEO

•No certified “act of terrorism”, as defined under the Terrorism Risk Insurance Act of 2002 or any subsequent acts, amendments, or reauthorizations thereto (“TRIA”), occurs during the Current Period (1/1/2024-1/1/2025). •No “pandemic” first originates and/or is first declared during the Current Period with “pandemic” defined as a disease prevalent throughout an entire state, country, continent, or world that meets either of the following criteria:
(a) Such disease is declared a pandemic by the World Health Organization; or (b) Any branch or agency of the United States Federal Government, or any state covered by the Excess Policy(ies), declares the spread of such disease to be a public health emergency. •No significant change in allocation of Exposure Basis (basis upon which the policy is rated and may include, but is not limited to, payroll or man hours) among states for the Renewal Period from that in place for the Current Period with “significant” being understood to mean a ±5% change in Exposure Basis of any state that represents more than 25% of the total policy Exposure Basis written in each preceding Liability Period or a ±50% change in Exposure Basis in any state that represents less than 25% of the total Exposure Basis for such preceding Liability Period. oIn other words, to keep the premium for CY 2025 at the same level as it is in 2024, the City’s Exposure Basis for CY 2025 should not change by more than 5% compared to the Exposure Basis for CY 2024. •No significant change in core business underwriting exposure, with “significant” being understood to mean a ±15% change in exposure for the Renewal Period over that in place for the Current Period. •No significant change in underwriting exposure through development of, or acquisition of, non-core business, with “significant” being understood to be a change in exposure that is in excess of 5% for the Renewal Period over that for the Current Period.
•No new, individual incurred loss during the Current Period to exceed 75% of that Excess Policy's applicable SIR/Retention amount with such losses to be valued as of 10/1/2024. •No development of existing claims having a date of loss prior to the effective date of the Current Period, to exceed 75% of the Excess Policy's applicable SIR/Retention amount with such losses to be valued as of 10/1/2024. oThe foregoing does not apply to specified claims that have been already taken into consideration for the premium pricing for the 2023 policy.
Our broker, Newfront, is recommending that we utilize Option 2 for renewal due to the savings it provides.
BUDGET IMPACT:
The premium quoted by Safety National for 2023 for both options is calculated at a rate of $0.3706 per $100 of covered estimated payroll, which results in an expected expenditure of $245,802.00 for each year, over the next two years. This rate is an 8.64% increase from our 2023 annual premium of $226,244 at a rate of $0.3598 per $100 of covered estimated payroll.
According to our broker, it would be most beneficial for the City to utilize Option 2, as this will allow the City to avoid potential rate increase in the year 2025. There are sufficient funds budgeted in the Workers' Compensation Fund for this expense.
ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION:
This agreement 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).)

SUBJECT:
Receipt and Use of Development Impact Fees and In-Lieu Fees – Annual Report RECOMMENDATION:
Adopt a Resolution to make findings and accept the annual report on receipt and use of development impact fees and in- lieu fees for the year ended June 30, 2023.
BACKGROUND:
Development Impact Fees
The City of San Mateo assesses four development impact fees – Wastewater Treatment Plant Phase II Expansion Fee, Transportation Improvement Fee, South Trunk Area Sewer Improvement Fee, and Park Impact Fee.
Local governments often charge fees as a condition of approval for development projects to fund public improvements in order to compensate for the demands that the developments have on public resources. These fees are commonly known as development impact fees. In 1989, the State Legislature passed Assembly Bill 1600 (AB 1600), which added Sections 66000 et seq. to the California Government Code, commonly known as the Mitigation Fee Act. Government Code Section 66006 requires that the City make available to the public the following information regarding development impact fees within 180 days after the end of each fiscal year:
1. A brief description of the type of fee.
2. The amount of the fee.
3. The fee’s beginning and ending balances for the fiscal year.
4. Total fees collected and the interest earned, if applicable.
5. Identification of each public improvement on which impact fees were expended and the amount of expenditure on each improvement, including the total percentage of the cost of the public improvement that was funded with impact fees.
6. Identification and timeline of public improvements any unexpended fees will be used for. a. This information is listed in Exhibit A to the Resolution. Exhibit A shows the five-year plan for public improvement projects and their anticipated expenditures related to the Mitigation Fee Act and Quimby Act. Specific details on each of the projects listed in Exhibit A can be found in the five-year capital improvement program section in the City’s 2023-24 Budget, which was adopted by City Council on June 20, 2023.
7. Description and uses for transfers or loans of fees, if applicable.
8. Amounts of any refunds and allocations.
Further, the Mitigation Fee Act requires that findings describing the continuing need for impact fees be made every five years specifying the intended use of any unexpended impact fees, regardless of whether the fees are committed or

uncommitted. If findings are not presented as scheduled, the City may be subjected to go through a refunding procedure.
The City is opting to make such findings every year.
In-Lieu Fees
In-lieu fees are fees that are collected by the City instead of requiring developers to provide or construct specified improvements or amenities with their projects. The City of San Mateo assesses five in-lieu fees – Parking In-Lieu Fee, Art in Public Places Fee, Tree Replacement Fee, Below Market Rate Housing Fee, and Park In-Lieu Fee.
Park
In-Lieu Fees are assessed pursuant to the Quimby Act under Government Code Section 66477. The other in-lieu fees do not have statutory reporting requirements but are included in this report. In an abundance of caution, and based on recent caselaw, this report and resolution include the same reporting requirements and findings for in-lieu fees that apply to impact fees. Under the Quimby Act, local governments may require the dedication of land for parks or the payment of fees in-lieu of land dedication as a condition of subdivision map approval. While park in-lieu fees are exempt from the reporting requirements included in the Mitigation Fee Act, these fees have separate Quimby Act reporting requirements, specifically:
1. The City must develop a schedule specifying the use of land or fees to develop park or recreational facilities to serve the residents of the subdivision.
2. Any Quimby fees collected must be committed within five years after the payment of the fees or the issuance of building permits on one-half of the lots created by the subdivision, whichever occurs later.
3. If not committed, the fees shall be distributed and paid to the record owners of the subdivision in the same proportion that the size of the lot bears to the total area of lots within the subdivision (Gov. Code section 66477(a)(6)).
Linkage Fees
Linkage fees are exactions for social needs indirectly related to development projects. The City of San Mateo assesses two linkage fees – Child Care Development Fee and Affordable Housing Commercial Linkage Fee. While these are linkage fees, they are included in this report with reporting requirements under the Mitigation Fee Act for informational purposes and to make sure that information is available in the event that a court rules in the future that linkage fees are subject to the reporting requirements of the Mitigation Fee Act.
This report complies with requirements of the Mitigation Fee Act and the Quimby Act outlined above.
Analysis
Development Impact Fees
Wastewater Treatment Plant Phase II Expansion FeeWastewater Treatment Plant Phase II Expansion Fee In April 2005, construction began to increase capacity of the wastewater treatment plant, and construction was substantially completed in the spring of 2009. Funds from the Sewer Enterprise Fund were used to pay for the expansion project. Under a Joint Powers Agreement (JPA), the treatment plant is partially owned by the Estero Municipal Improvement District (Foster City). Based on San Mateo’s share of the treatment plant and based on the total projected cost attributable to development based on the 2005 expansion study, the amount that is to be recovered through development fees is $3.52 million in total.
The Wastewater Treatment Plant Phase II Expansion Fee is imposed on all development that results in a change of use and that adds more sewage to the City’s sewage treatment system. The fee took effect on July 1, 2006 and will continue to be charged until $3.52 million is collected. Funds collected are transferred annually to the fund balance of the Sewer Enterprise Fund as a repayment to the Fund for the expansion cost. The fee is charged as shown in the 2022-23 Comprehensive Fee Schedule on page 10.8. The fees are determined by reference to site sewer study or engineering standards.

Council rotation
Dear Council,
I wish to first congratulate you all on a year well done. Despite a bumpy beginning, as a new council you have been able to come together, transcending differences in personality and ideology, and unite over your shared love of San Mateo. Thank you to outgoing Mayor Amourance Lee for your leadership.
As Foster City shares your meeting schedule, I will be unable to speak in person, but I nevertheless wanted to express my hope and expectation that you will continue to work together, and allow for a smooth and quick rotation of the positions tonight without drama or unnecessary histrionics, particularly because many eyes both within San Mateo and beyond will be watching.
It has been said that a true leader leads from any seat, and I hope that your city and the rest of San Mateo county will see that tonight. I look forward to continuing to watch this strong and capable council represent San Mateo well.
Best of luck to the new mayor and vice-mayor!
Regards,
Stacy Jimenez
Councilmember, Foster City
