community policing and building a collaborative network inside and outside of law enforcement as reflected by its implementation of a Special Needs Awareness Program (SNAP) to provide first responders with important information when responding to calls for service that involve individuals who may have a memory disorder, hearing impairment, autism or other behavioral disability. Participation in SNAP is voluntary and confidential and allows family members/caregivers to provide a picture of the individual, details related to their condition and instructions on how to best interact with that person. The CRT also oversees the department’s oversight of businesses regulated by City, State, and federal laws including inspections and corresponding investigations and is a liaison to Santa Clara University for student education and enforcement on a variety of issues including drug/alcohol use and neighbor relations. The funding requested would allow the CRT to expand services to provide mental health/crisis response coverage 24-hours a day, 365 days a year.

3. Pruneridge Avenue Complete Streets Project - $2,300,000 The City of Santa Clara adopted the Pruneridge Avenue Complete Streets Plan in 2022 to implement buffered bicycle lanes along the Pruneridge Avenue corridor in Santa Clara.

This east-west roadway is an important part of the County of Santa Clara’s cross-county bicycle corridor network and connects schools and employment centers to and from the region. The project will remove portions of travel lanes along Pruneridge Avenue to complete this important cross-county bicycle network and enhance intersections along the corridor with pedestrian improvements such as quick-build curb extensions, ADA curb ramps, and pedestrian signal enhancements. The funding that is requested will support the City’s construction of this priority bicycle and pedestrian improvement project in Santa Clara.

Thank you for your consideration in championing these projects to help secure community project funding that will support the efforts of the City and benefit the region and State of California.

RE: Protect California Library Services Program Funding: Lunch at the Library Program and the California Library Services Act
Dear Senate President Pro Tempore McGuire, Assembly Speaker Rivas, and Budget Chairs Senator Wiener and Assembly Member Gabriel:

On behalf of the City of Santa Clara, I urge the Legislature to protect investments made to programs in the California Library Services, as you deliberate on the final FY 2024-25 State Budget. Specifically, two important programs under the purview of the California State Library – the Lunch at the Library program and the California Library Services Act. Unfortunately, these programs were targeted for cuts in the Joint Legislative Budget Plan.

The Lunch at the Library program (Program) provides free meals for children during the summer, while school is out of session. This Program is vital to reduce child hunger, as according to the Food and Research Action Center, only 1 in 6 California children who qualify for free or reducedprice lunch receive summer meals. During Summer 2023, California public libraries worked with community partners to serve over 271,000 meals to children and teens at public library meal sites and community meal sites. This included 183 public library meal sites and library staff bringing pop-up library and enrichment services to 412 community meal sites. This Program is not only vital to combat child hunger – it also provides enrichment services for families. In Governor Newsom’s May Revise, the Governor proposed to eliminate all funding, a total of $5.5 million, from the). We greatly appreciate the restoration by the Legislature of $3 million ongoing funding for the Program in the Joint Package. We ask that the Legislature considers fully funding this Program to ensure participation throughout the State.

Additionally, Governor Newsom proposed a 50 percent reduction to the California Library Services Act (CLSA), which would take the funding from the $3.6 million baseline down to $1.8 million. The CLSA aims to strengthen library services across the State, promoting access, equity, and quality in public library offerings. We ask that the Legislature consider full ongoing funding for CLSA.

The City of Santa Clara is concerned if we are not able to draw these valuable state resources then it will negatively impact our ability to service the community, and would potentially result in the elimination of local program offerings. Additionally, the loss of state funding could be compounded as it would limit our ability to receive additional funding through our library consortium, Pacific Library Partnership, in the form of training, technology grants and other activities and most certainly we will see an impact in our ability to use our shared resource (materials exchange) services through LINK +.

The City understands the financial constraints under which the state budget is being crafted; however, these are vital services to our community that need to be protected by ongoing State Budget funding.

The City of Santa Clara appreciates your consideration of continued full funding for these key programs impacting California Library Services.

RE: Power Santa Clara Valley Project
Dear Mrs. Marton,
I am writing to you today in support of LS Power Grid California, LLC (“LS Power”) and the Power the South Bay Project, also known as the Newark to NRS HVDC Project (the “Project”). We understand this letter will be included in an application for a Certificate of Public Convenience and Necessity (“CPCN”) submitted by LS Power to the California Public Utilities Commission (“CPUC”) that would authorize the construction of the Project. This infrastructure upgrade is extremely critical for the City of Santa Clara, and I am pleased to participate in this public process.

As the Mayor of the City of Santa Clara, I understand the Project is needed to meet electric reliability needs in the South Bay area, providing a robust new electrical connection within the South Bay area. The City of Santa Clara is expecting to continue its electrical load growth with new data centers, commercial, and residential developments. The Project will allow for more efficient and increased transfer capability of electricity within the area, which is critical to the City in achieving its electrification goals and providing clean affordable reliable electric service. As the State of California struggles to meet its goals of reducing greenhouse gases by 40% through 2030, we are proud that our area will continue to push forward on meeting the challenges of climate change.

I am also pleased that the Project will provide jobs and economic stimulus during Project construction as well as increases in tax revenues throughout the life of the new infrastructure.

I appreciate LS Power’s willingness to proactively engage and work together with our City Council, City departments, the Santa Clara community, and Santa Clara County to discuss preliminary Project plans. I support the advancement of this Project for review by the CPUC, believe that this Project will benefit residents and businesses in my city, and look forward to a continued partnership with LS Power.

Subject: Support for NCPA’s Lodi Hydrogen Project
Dear Commission Agreement Officer,
The City of Santa Clara dba Silicon Valley Power (SVP) is pleased to express our support of the Northern California Power Agency’s participation in the California Energy Commission’s solicitation for Large-Scale Centralized Clean Hydrogen Production (H2CENTRAL). NCPA’s Lodi Hydrogen Project is a wonderful opportunity to demonstrate and deploy clean hydrogen technologies to reduce emissions in both the transportation and electricity generation sectors. We are dedicated to contributing to the success of this important initiative as a participant in the Lodi Energy Center (LEC) and Member of NCPA.

We recognize NCPA’s leadership role in establishing centralized renewable clean hydrogen production, delivery infrastructure, and storage facilities in central California. By developing a hydrogen production facility at a site near the Lodi Energy Center and near the Interstate 5 corridor, the project offers dual benefits of providing conveniently located hydrogen supply for the transportation sector, as well as the opportunity to blend hydrogen as part of the LEC’s operations.

The Lodi Hydrogen Project is included as a Tier 1 project in the state’s Alliance for Renewable Clean Hydrogen Energy Systems (ARCHES). State funding will be key to the deployment of this critically important technology.

The LEC, constructed in 2012, was the first combined-cycle natural gas power plant in the nation to use fast start technology, making it an extremely flexible resource capable of operating to support the integration of intermittent renewable energy resources on the grid. The plant has 13 project participants, including public power utilities, special districts, and the State of California. The plant has a hydrogen-capable turbine in place today that can operate on a blend of up to 45% hydrogen and natural gas. As the R&D work on this project proceeds, NCPA plans to increase the amount of blending that will occur at the LEC with the long-term goal of eliminating the use of natural gas as a fuel source at this facility.

In calendar year 2023, SVP has a peak load of 669 MW and the peak is expected to double by 2030 due to the growth of commercial and data center developments. SVP has a 25.75% participant share of the Lodi Energy Center. SVP also participates in other NCPA natural gas power plant and owns 2 in-town natural gas power plants. The success of LEC’s use of hydrogen will help inform SVP’s own conversion of natural gas power plant to clean hydrogen in the future.

Re: SB 926 (Wahab) – Safeguarding Against Digitized Misrepresentation Dear Chair Bauer-Kahan,
On behalf of the City of Santa Clara, I am writing to express our support for SB 926, Safeguarding Against Digitized Misrepresentation, which expands current revenge porn law by prohibiting the unauthorized creation and distribution of artificially created sexually explicit images with the intention of causing serious emotional distress to the person depicted in the image.

The City of Santa Clara is supportive of legislation that addresses crime trends and assists individuals in crisis, which SB 926 aims to do.

With the advancement of computer technology and its availability to the public, there has been an increase in the use of technology to create realistic explicit images of individuals and as result, there has been an increase in the spread of artificially created images distributed across the internet. Existing law protects victims when sexually explicit images or videos of them are spread without their consent; however, it does not cover artificially created images. SB 926 will extend that protection to instances in which those images are digitally created, altered, or computergenerated.

The creation and spreading of artificially altered sexually explicit images of individuals can lead to the potential for exploitation, harassment, and defamation. There are also noted mental health repercussions for the victims, who are overwhelmingly young women. SB 926 takes proactive steps to limit digital harassment and exploitation and reduce potential harm for Californians. There is a pressing need for this legislation.

For these reasons, the City of Santa Clara supports SB 926.

Re: SB 933 (Wahab) Child AI Safety – SUPPORT
Dear Chair Bauer-Kahan:

I am writing on behalf of the City of Santa Clara to express our support of SB 933, which prohibits individuals from possessing and distributing explicit, abusive, images of children that have been generated by artificial intelligence.

The City of Santa Clara is supportive of legislation that addresses crime trends and assists individuals in crisis, which SB 926 aims to do.

According to the Stanford Internet Observatory's 2023 report there are thousands of explicit and abusive images of children hidden within popular AI image-generators. These images make it easier to create explicit and abusive content. Current law does not expressly prohibit the possession or distribution of AI-generated explicit images of actual children.

SB 933 is addressing the pressing issue of AI-generated explicit, abusive images of children, clarifying the law to provide effective safeguards. The bill's solutions are straightforward and impactful, aiming to regulate AI-generated images, create a more secure digital environment for children, and protect children and teens.

For these reasons, the City of Santa Clara supports SB 933 (Wahab).

Re: AB 2236 (Bauer-Kahan) Solid waste: reusable grocery bags: standards: plastic film prohibition – SUPPORT
Dear Legislature,
On behalf of the below city and county officials, we write in strong support AB 2236 (BauerKahan), which ends the use of thicker plastic bags in grocery stores and convenience stores and reduces California’s dependency on plastic. In 2014, California passed the nation’s first ban on plastic bags. SB 270 (Padilla) required all plastic bags used in grocery, convenience, and retail stores that include grocery, to be reusable. After a decade under SB 270, it has become clear that California has not eliminated plastic grocery bags. The standards for reusable bags have resulted in exempt bags that are still made of thicker plastic, high-density polyethylene, or HDPE.

However, relatively few consumers re-use these exempt plastic bags for shopping. Investigative reports found that even when the bags were returned to the store for recycling, many still found their way to landfills.1 CalRecycle’s statewide residential disposal reports suggest that over 5 billion bags in this category may have been landfilled in 2021, marking a significant reversal from several years of declining disposal. Since 2018, plastic bag waste by weight in California actually increased from 139,00 tons to 231,000 tons, which is the highest level on record.2 AB 2236 would eliminate the existing exemption of plastic film bags and require grocery and certain retail stores to no longer provide these bags to their customers. Further, AB 2236 increases standards for reusable bags to ensure they are not replaced by a new version of an HDPE bag with plastic film material, or a non-plastic bag that can be easily damaged and is not durable. Lastly, AB 2236 increases the recyclability standard of paper bags to be made from 50% post-consumer recycled materials.

Given that cities are preempted by SB 270 from banning thick plastic bags, cities have had to bear the financial and logistical burden of managing this issue, without having the power to 1 Gutman, M., Simon, E., Park, C., Simpson, T., Kofsky, J., Schlosberg, J., Brooksbank, T., Yamashita, S., & Kim, S.

address it on a local level. Most -if not all- of California recycling centers do not even accept HDPE bags for recycling. The Los Angeles Times reached out to municipal and city recycling centers across the state and were “unable to find a single one that accepts HDPE bags for recycling.”3 From production to disposal, plastic waste is detrimental to the environment and human health.

Plastics are primarily made from fossil fuels, and the extraction and refinement of fossil feedstocks for plastics release an array of toxic substances into the air and water, including known carcinogens and neurotoxins.4 Upon disposal, plastic does not biodegrade, and toxic chemicals released from plastics damage soil quality and leeches into groundwater. Plastic bags are one of the most found pollutants in our seas5
, and marine life ingests microplastics that are detrimental to their health.6 Therefore it is necessary to curb California’s plastic production as much as possible to preserve our environment and health.

For these reasons, we support AB 2236 to reduce plastic waste in California by closing the exempt bag loophole at grocery stores and retail grocers to further a sustainable future.

Dear Congressman Khanna:

On behalf of the City of Santa Clara, I am writing in support of the San Francisco Bay Area World Cup 2026 and the 11 American Host Cities’ security needs, specifically their programmatic/language request of a $50,000,000 per city plus-up ($620,000,000 total) in the Homeland Security Preparedness Grants Account of the Fiscal Year 2025 Homeland Security Appropriations bill.

The San Francisco Bay Area World Cup 2026 matches will take place at Levi’s Stadium in the City of Santa Clara. Levi’s Stadium is owned by the Santa Clara Stadium Authority, a joint powers authority that was established to provide for the development and operation of the Stadium and whose governing Board is the Santa Clara City Council. As the agency responsible for public safety oversight of the event venue, the City of Santa Clara is working closely with the Bay Area Host Committee to coordinate public safety planning and deployment for these events.

Lasting almost six weeks with daily fan fests of 500,000+ in attendance, Super Bowl-scale matches attended by world leaders, and various other activities, the comprehensive safety, counterterrorism, planning and operational responsibility for each host city is enormous. A record number of 48 teams will play 104 matches throughout the United States, Canada, and Mexico, six of which will be played here in Santa Clara.

Specifically, every World Cup Host Committee and surrounding local governments that will be supporting the tournament are required to provide, among other things: Training and readiness exercises; staff background checks; cybersecurity defense; incremental policing and security at airports; infrastructure, policing, equipment, and medical needs at fan fests and stadiums; policing, contract security, fire, EMS, medical support, and associated overtime for each; Subject: (World Cup Host City – San Francisco Bay Area) – Application for World Cup 2026 Critical Security Funding – Programmatic and Language Request for FEMA Grant Programs for FY2025

security at transportation hubs (other than the airport); security in FIFA venues and training facilities; and additional perimeter security at hotel facilities.

Hosting FIFA World Cup is a once-in-a-generation opportunity, and we are committed to ensuring the safety of World Cup attendees and our community. It is critical to have the full support of the federal government as all eyes around the world are watching our country and Santa Clara.

Thank you for your consideration.

REPORT TO COUNCIL

SUBJECT
Action Authorizing the Submittal of an Application to FERC to Surrender the High Line Canal Hydroelectric Project Hydroelectric License, and Authorizing the City Manager to Complete Related Administrative Actions

COUNCIL PILLAR
Deliver and Enhance High Quality Efficient Services and Infrastructure

BACKGROUND
In 1984, the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) issued a license to the City of Santa Clara (City) to construct and operate the High Line Canal Hydroelectric Project (High Line) located near Orland, California. High Line was completed in 1989 with a capacity of 0.53 MW at an installed cost of about $1 million.

Due to frequent and recurrent operational issues, High Line has been in an inoperable state since May 2020. Staff has evaluated High Line’s condition, reviewed historical generation output, and performed a financial analysis to determine repair costs and project future revenues. The resulting studies have concluded that repairing and operating High Line is no longer financially viable and therefore, staff is planning to begin the process of FERC license surrender and facility decommissioning.

DISCUSSION
As the sole licensee for the High Line Canal Project, FERC No. 7252-CA, the City is subject to numerous FERC hydroelectric license conditions and regulatory requirements. Of note, 18 CFR §

6.4 states that if generation from the project is “discontinued for a period of three years”, FERC will deem it to be the intent of the licensee to surrender the license, and not less than 90 days after public notice, may at its discretion terminate the license.

Under normal operation, High Line results in a net loss to the City and the estimated repair costs exceed several years of generation revenue. Repair strategies have historically been unsuccessful, and it is unlikely that reliable operation could be achieved without major design changes to the facility. Additionally, remote facilities like High Line have unique regulatory compliance and other risks that have increased in the recent past and which cannot be justified for a facility with such limited value to the City.

Therefore, staff has determined that High Line is no longer economically viable and carries an unacceptable level of risk. Staff is recommending that the City authorize the submission of an application to FERC to surrender the hydroelectric license which, if approved, will require the restoration of the land to pre-project condition, which will require a separate contract subject to City City of Santa Clara Page 1 of 2 Printed on 7/12/2024
powered by Legistar™
24-674 Agenda Date: 7/16/2024
Council approval.

After the application to surrender the hydroelectric license is submitted to FERC, it will likely be necessary for the City to prepare and submit documents to the California Independent System Operator (CAISO), the Bureau of Reclamation, Orland Unit Water Users Association, and others.

The proposed action does not authorize any work on the High Line property, such as demolition, as staff currently is assessing the facility and surrounding land restoration requirements and associated costs. Once FERC has approved the request to surrender the hydroelectric license and decommission the facility, staff will work with the various agencies to determine an estimate of decommissioning-related costs. If required, staff will return to the City Council at a future date with a recommendation regarding the actual work necessary to decommission the facility and to request the City Council appropriate necessary funds.

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
This action being considered does not constitute a “project” within the meaning of the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) pursuant to section 15378(b)(5) of Title 14 of California Code of Regulations in that it solely authorizes administrative actions which will not result in direct or indirect physical changes in the environment.

FISCAL IMPACT
There is no fiscal impact related to submitting the Application to Surrender the hydroelectric license with FERC. Costs of professional services such as attorney services are budgeted in SVP’s operating budget. Costs associated with decommissioning the facility will be brought forward to the City Council at a later date as required to appropriate the necessary funds.

COORDINATION
This report has been coordinated with the Finance Department and City Attorney’s Office.

PUBLIC CONTACT
Public contact was made by posting the Council agenda on the City’s official-notice bulletin board outside City Hall Council Chambers. A complete agenda packet is available on the City’s website and in the City Clerk’s Office at least 72 hours prior to a Regular Meeting and 24 hours prior to a Special Meeting. A hard copy of any agenda report may be requested by contacting the City Clerk’s Office at (408) 615-2220, email [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> or at the public information desk at any City of Santa Clara public library.

RECOMMENDATION
Authorize the City Manager or designee to take any necessary administrative actions to surrender the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission (FERC) hydroelectric license for the High Line Canal Hydroelectric Project, including, the execution of any documents as may be required by the FERC, California Independent System Operator (CAISO), Pacific Gas & Electric (PG&E), the Bureau of Reclamation, Orland Unit Water Users Association, and other agencies and entities, subject to the approval as to form by the City Attorney, if applicable.

REPORT TO COUNCIL

SUBJECT
Action to Adopt a Resolution Approving and Adopting the Updated and Corrected Classified Salary Plan Effective July 7, 2024, to reflect the negotiated and City Council approved general wage increase for classifications represented by The Engineers of the City of Santa Clara.

COUNCIL PILLAR
Enhance Community Engagement and Transparency

BACKGROUND
Section 9 of the Personnel and Salary Resolution requires City Council approval of compensation plans for both classified and unclassified positions. California Code Regulations Section 570.5 governs and requires the adoption of updated publicly available salary schedules by the governing body. The proposed Council action satisfies these applicable requirements. The updated salary plans reflect the negotiated and Council approved Cost of Living Adjustments (COLA) included in the Engineers of the City of Santa Clara (Unit 4) agreement.

The City of Santa Clara contracts with the California Public Employees’ Retirement System (CalPERS) to provide retirement benefits for employees in classified positions. When the City makes modifications to the salary schedules for its classified positions, the City Council must approve and adopt the publicly available salary schedules to comply with California Code of Regulations (CCR) section 570.5. If the City Council does not approve these resolutions, the City will be non-compliant with CalPERS record-keeping and reporting requirements. The City of Santa Clara is a contracting agency with CalPERS and is required to comply with its requirements.

The Classified Salary Plan has been modified to reflect a negotiated wage increase of approximately

3.0% for classifications represented by the Engineers of the City of Santa Clara (Unit 4) effective July 7, 2024. This was previously approved by the City Council in open session as part of an agreement on a successor Memorandum of Agreement (MOU).

DISCUSSION
On or about the June 25, 2024 the Council approved and adopted the updated Classified Salary Plan effective July 7, 2024 to reflect the negotiated and City Council approved general wage increase for classifications represented by The Engineers of the City of Santa Clara (Unit 4). However, the classified pay plan attached on June 25, 2024, was incorrect. Therefore, this action is to adopt the updated and corrected Classified Salary Plan. The Classified Salary Plan has been modified to reflect the negotiated wage increase for classifications represented by the Engineers of the City of Santa Clara (Unit 4). All classifications that are covered by the respective bargaining unit shall receive an automatic 3.0% increase effective July 7, 2024. The Council previously approved this City of Santa Clara Page 1 of 2 Printed on 7/12/2024

action in open session and as part of an agreement on a successor MOU on or about March 7, 2023.

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The action being considered does not constitute a “project” within the meaning of the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) pursuant to CEQA Guidelines section 15378(b)(5) in that it is a governmental organizational or administrative activity that will not result in direct or indirect changes in the environment.

FISCAL IMPACT
The 3.0% general wage increase has a cost of approximately $299,000 (all funds), of which approximately $67,000 is in the General Fund and $232,000 is in other funds. This increase was factored into the FY 2024/25 Budget.

REPORT TO STADIUM AUTHORITY BOARD

SUBJECT
Action on Stadium Authority Bills and Claims for the Month of May 2024

BOARD PILLARS
Enhance Community Engagement and Transparency
Ensure Compliance with Measure J and Manage Levi’s Stadium

BACKGROUND
Disbursements made by the Stadium Authority are based on invoices submitted for payment. Prior to payment, staff reviews all disbursement documents to ensure that the invoiced goods or services have been provided.

The Supreme Court of California in Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors v. Superior Court, (2016) 2 Cal.5th 282, held that invoices specifying the amounts billed by a law firm to a client fall within the scope of attorneyclient privilege while the matters are active. In accordance with the Supreme Court’s ruling, the names of law firms retained by the Stadium Authority, and the specific amounts billed by each, have been redacted from the public report to maintain the confidentiality of billing records for specific legal services. The aggregate amount spent on legal services in the subject time period has been provided.

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The action being considered does not constitute a “project” within the meaning of the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) pursuant to section 15378(b)(4) of Title 14 of the California Code of Regulations in that it is a fiscal activity that does not involve any commitment to any specific project which may result in a potential significant impact on the environment.

FISCAL IMPACT
The fiscal impact to the Stadium Authority is $2,437,766.76.

COORDINATION
This report has been coordinated with the Executive Director and Stadium Authority Counsel’s Office.

RECOMMENDATION
Approve the list of Stadium Authority Bills and Claims for May 2024.

REPORT TO STADIUM AUTHORITY BOARD

SUBJECT
Action on the Carryover of FY 2023/24 Stadium Authority Capital Project and Approve Related Budget Amendment

BOARD PILLAR
Ensure Compliance with Measure J and Manage Levi’s Stadium

BACKGROUND
On March 7, 2023, the Stadium Authority Board approved the Santa Clara Stadium Authority Fiscal Year 2023/24 Operating, Debt Service, and Capital Budget (FY 2023/24 Budget). As highlighted in Attachment 1, the FY 2023/24 Budget included the General Areas / Coatings Main Deck capital expense (CapEx) project for $2,168,759.

This project was needed to replace and recoat the Lymtal traffic deck coating at the lower seating bowl and on the 300 and 700 Level Concourses, which are currently showing signs of wear. The deck coating serves as a secondary waterproofing system for the occupied spaces below these areas and protects and extends the life of the concrete. Periodic replacement and recoating of this system is necessary to maintain the current waterproofing system and the expected useful life of the structure.

It was anticipated that this project would be completed by the end of FY 2023/24, so the corresponding budget was not requested to be carried forward to the FY 2024/25 Operating, Debt Service, and Capital Budget (FY 2024/25 Budget). However, due to the weather and additional unanticipated major events being held at the Stadium, this project extended into FY 2024/25. Staff is requesting approval to amend the FY 2024/25 Budget to include unspent funds from the FY 2023/24 Budget for this project.

DISCUSSION
During the FY 2024/25 budgeting process, the Forty Niners SC Stadium Management Company LLC (Stadium Manager) anticipated the completion of the General Areas / Coatings Main Deck CapEx project at the end of FY 2023/24, so the remaining budget was not requested to be carried over.

Several unanticipated major events, including concerts and additional NFL home games held at the Stadium, required the contractor to pause work and remobilize before and after the events for extended periods. Inclement weather in late 2023 and early 2024 also severely impacted the contractor’s ability to apply coating in the lower seating bowl area. Several rainstorms caused damage to some of the freshly finished areas, requiring the contractor to repair and refinish the damaged coatings. The project is almost complete, and the budget carryover will allow the Stadium Manager to release the final contract retention and pay for some minor construction deficiencies prior to releasing the retention amount.

The requested budget amendment will carry over the unspent amount of $565,241 from the FY 2023/24 Budget to the FY 2024/25 Budget for the General Areas / Coatings Main Deck CapEx project.

The table below summarizes the unspent FY 2023/24 Budget for the project and the requested carry over amount:

Project Name Approved

Carried Forward
Request Amount for
FY 2024/25 Budget
General Areas / Coating Main Deck $565,241 $565,241
Total $565,241 $565,241

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The action being considered does not constitute a “project” within the meaning of the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) pursuant to CEQA Guidelines section 15378(b)(5) as it has no potential for resulting in either a direct physical change in the environment, or a reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment.

FISCAL IMPACT
The General Areas / Coating Main Deck CapEx Project is not part of the FY 2024/25 Budget, and the Board will need to approve a $565,241 budget amendment to add the project. These funds will be offset by a decrease in the Stadium Authority Capital Expense Reserve.

The table below summarizes the budget amendment discussed above:

REPORT TO COUNCIL

SUBJECT
Action on the following:

A. Resolution Adopting an Expenditure Plan for the Proposed Bond Measure B. Waive Second Reading and Adopt an Ordinance Ordering the Submission of a Measure Incurring Bond Indebtedness to the Qualified Voters of the City of Santa Clara C. Resolution Calling for a Municipal Election and Ordering Consolidation with the Santa Clara County Presidential General Election on November 5, 2024 for the Purpose of Submitting to the Voters a Measure to Approve the Issuance of General Obligation Bonds to Finance Municipal Improvements Constituting Public Infrastructure in an Amount of $400,000,000; Requesting Consolidation with the Presidential General Election and Election Services from Santa Clara County; Providing the City Attorney to Prepare an Impartial Analysis; Setting Priorities for Ballot Arguments

BACKGROUND
Over the last several years, the need for critical capital infrastructure investment has been identified and discussed as part of the budget and priority setting processes. As part of the development of the FY 2024/25 and FY 2025/26 Biennial Capital Budget, over $600 million in City infrastructure needs were identified in which the General Fund would be the primary funding source. This amount addresses the most immediate needs over the next five years but does not fully account for all unfunded needs in the City.

On July 18, 2023, the City Council approved funding for outreach, engagement, and policy analysis to support activities related to potential November 2024 ballot measures (Attachment 1). On October 24, 2023, a study session was presented on the City’s unfunded needs, including revenue options and a workplan for a November 2024 ballot measure. In addition, during the two-day 2024 Council Priority Setting Session on March 25 and April 3, 2024, the City Manager presented on the City’s unfunded capital needs and the potential for the City to explore a general obligation (GO) bond measure. Staff have worked with consultants to explore the feasibility of such a bond.

At the April 23 and June 4, 2024 City Council meetings, consultants from Tulchin Research presented on two rounds of scientific polling surveys. Both surveys were conducted among likely November 2024 general election voters, including newly registered voters and those who have voted in at least one of the past four elections. The initial benchmarking survey took place from April 1 through April 4, and the second survey from May 18 through May 22. Both surveys were offered in English, Chinese, Spanish, and Vietnamese and were conducted by phone to reach a total of 800 likely voters. A majority of voters indicated that Santa Clara could benefit from additional investment in public infrastructure and that they generally support measures that provide local funding to address infrastructure or service needs.

24-672 Agenda Date: 7/16/2024
In addition to the two likely-voter surveys, the consultant team released a Community Mailer Survey to gather additional thoughts from the community using a broad approach. This mailer went out to over 30,000 households and was made available at City facilities. Responses to this community mailer were submitted online via a QR code or as a tear-off survey to be mailed back to the City. This community feedback method received nearly 875 responses, both online and by mail.

On July 9, 2024, City Staff presented the City Council with potential actions related to the proposed November 2024 Ballot Measure (Attachment 2). The presentation included proposed ballot language, a Transparency and Accountability Plan, an Expenditure Plan, and the structure of a Community Oversight Committee. After extensive discussions City Council took action to approve a legally required Resolution of Necessity for a proposed bond issue stating that the public interest demands the acquisition, construction, or completion of the municipal improvements and the costs of the improvements will require an expenditure by the City greater than allowed for by the City’s annual tax levy.

Concurrently, the City Council also approved the introduction of an ordinance calling for the issuance of infrastructure bonds that includes information about the object and purpose of the bonds, establishes a maximum bond issuance/infrastructure improvement cost amount of $400,000,000, a maximum interest rate, and an extensive transparency and accountability plan (Attachment 3). This plan contemplates Council approval of an Expenditure Plan for the use of bond proceeds. Council also acted to give staff direction on the contents of this Expenditure Plan to be brought back to the Council for its final consideration and action at the July 16 meeting.

The purpose of this report is to provide the City Council with information related to the next steps of the process and the necessary final actions to be taken should the City Council wish to move forward with voter consideration of the bond measure at the upcoming election in November 2024.

DISCUSSION
Updated Expenditure Plan
At the July 9 City Council meeting, staff was provided directive to develop a revised Expenditure Plan for a $400 million bond with some modifications to the proposed Expenditure Plan categories and projects. The Expenditure Plan includes cost estimates assigned to specific category areas. Within these category areas, specific projects were identified, for which staff developed detailed cost estimates included in the attached Expenditure Plan (Attachment 4). A resolution to approve the updated Expenditure Plan will be presented at the July 16 City Council meeting for review and approval (Attachment 5).

Revised Category areas include:
· Streets and Transportation
· Fire Stations and Emergency Response
· Police Facilities
· Parks, Libraries, Senior Center, and Aquatics Facilities · Stormdrain System Improvements
City of Santa Clara Page 2 of 8 Printed on 7/12/2024
powered by Legistar™
24-672 Agenda Date: 7/16/2024
· Historic Buildings and Beautification
The Expenditure Plan now also includes sections that provide additional detail on how infrastructure projects within the plan will be implemented in phases, how project phases with will be developed and approved by the City Council consistent with Council priorities, and the process for amending the plan consistent with the transparency and accountability requirements set forth in the bond ordinance. The updated plan also makes it clear that, per state bond law and federal tax law, project costs paid from bond proceeds shall consist of capital costs of the acquisition and improvement of real property within the meaning of California law. Any project costs consisting of furnishings, furniture, equipment, software, ordinary maintenance (such as repairs, painting, resurfacing, striping or slurry seals), or other non-capital costs will need to be paid by the City from other funds.

Transparency and Accountability Plan
The Transparency and Accountability Plan presented at the July 9th meeting, as modified consistent with Council direction, is set forth in primarily Section 13 of the bond ordinance. Key provisions of the plan, including some additional state law requirements not previously presented, include the following:

1. Council approval of an Expenditure Plan including project category areas and related spending amounts concurrent with adoption of the bond Ordinance to be attached the Ordinance and presented as part of the ballot materials [Ordinance Section 6, Section 13(b)(i) and Exhibit A)

6. Funds only to be used for public infrastructure projects serving the City of Santa Clara [Ordinance Section 13(a)(ii)]

7. All bond proceeds are to be deposited into a separate account(s) and tracked on a project by project basis [Ordinance Section 13(a)(x)

Adoption of Ordinance to Incur Bond Indebtedness
As discussed above, the City introduced an ordinance describing the object and purpose of the bonds as required by California Government Code §43610. This includes the object and purpose of bonds, a description of the improvements to be financed with the proceeds of the bonds, the estimated costs of the improvements of $400 million, and the manner of holding the election. The Ordinance establishes the maximum principal amount of the bonds, estimates the total costs of the improvements, establishes a maximum interest rate, and establishes the Transparency and Accountability Plan measures the City Council directed at the July 9th meeting. The Council will need to approve the adoption of the ordinance on second reading, along with a resolution calling for a municipal election (described below).

Proposed Ballot Language
California Elections Code Section 9051 requires that a ballot question not exceed 75 words and shall be a condensed version of the ballot title and summary. California Elections Code Section 13119 (c) also requires that the statement of the measure “shall be a true and impartial synopsis of the purpose of the proposed measure, and shall be in language that is neither argumentative nor likely to create prejudice for or against the measure.”
Based on the results of polling analysis and feedback from the City Council at its July 9, 2024 City Council meeting, the following ballot questions are presented for the City Council’s consideration.

Proposed Bond Measure Language
To improve 911 emergency rapid response; fix potholes, repair and improve streets throughout Santa Clara; fix underground stormdrains/pipes to prevent sinkholes; provide safer roads and routes to school for drivers, pedestrians; and repair/maintain safe public facilities; shall the City of Santa Clara’s measure authorizing $400,000,000 in bonds, funded by levying an estimated $19/ $100,000 of assessed value while bonds are outstanding, generating approximately $21,674,000 annually, with annual audits and citizen oversight of spending, be adopted?

powered by Legistar™
24-672 Agenda Date: 7/16/2024
With respect to calling for an election in November 2024, it is important to note the following:

1. The City Council must adopt a resolution calling for a municipal election, requesting consolidation with the Santa Clara County Presidential General Election and requesting that the Santa Clara County Registrar of Voters provide election services.

2. The City’s resolution must be received by the Registrar of Voters no later than 5 p.m. on August 9, 2024; with arguments due by 5 p.m. on August 13, 2024; and rebuttal arguments and impartial analysis due by 5 p.m. on August 20, 2024.

3. In accordance with Elections Code Section 9285(a), the City Clerk as the local Elections Official, has set the following deadlines:

Resolution Adoption: July 16, 2024
Ballot Arguments (for and against): July 30, 2024 by 5:00 p.m.

Ballot Rebuttals (for and against): August 9, 2024 by 5:00 p.m.

City Attorney’s Impartial Analysis: August 9, 2024 by 5:00 p.m.

All documents are due to the Office of the City Clerk by the deadlines set forth above.

4. The City Council must take action at the scheduled July 16th meeting to allow sufficient time for the City Clerk to prepare and submit the election materials to the County Registrar of Voters by August 9, 2024.

Enclosed as Attachment 6 is a draft resolution should the City Council wish to proceed with the bond measure.

Ballot Argument Process
State Elections Code Section 9282(b) provides for the filing of ballot measure arguments by the following: City Council or any member(s) of the Council authorized by the Council, any individual voter eligible to vote on the measure, bona fide association of citizens or any combination of voters and associations.

The City Council determines whether the Council or members of the Council authorized by the Council will draft the argument supporting the ballot measure or whether it will, instead, allow a third party to do so.

The City Charter and the California Elections Code authorize, but do not require, the City Council to write the argument in support of the ballot measure. If the City Council chooses to write the ballot argument, it should designate a maximum of three Council members to draft the argument. These designees would prepare and sign the argument and submit it to the City Clerk.

Alternatively, the Council may designate the Mayor to sign on behalf of the entire Council. A total of five individuals and/or organizations may sign the ballot argument and the Council may designate which individuals or organization fill any available signature slots.

If the City Council decides not to draft the argument itself, any registered voter or bona fide association of citizens may submit a proposed argument to the City Clerk. If the City Clerk receives multiple proposed arguments, the City Clerk shall select one of the arguments in adherence to City of Santa Clara Page 5 of 8 Printed on 7/12/2024
powered by Legistar™
24-672 Agenda Date: 7/16/2024
Elections Code Section 9287. The City Clerk is required to give preference and priority to the arguments of the following:

1. The legislative body, or member or members of the legislative body authorized by that body.

2. The individual voter, or bona fide association of citizens, or combination of voters and associations, who are the bona fide sponsors or proponents of the measure.

3. Bona fide associations of citizens.

4. Individual voters who are eligible to vote on the measure.

In accordance with Elections Code Section 9285, the City Clerk will send a copy of the argument in favor of the measure to the authors of the argument against the measure and a copy of an argument against the measure to the authors of the argument in favor of the measure. The author or a majority of the authors of an argument relating to a city measure may prepare and submit a rebuttal argument or may authorize in writing another person or persons to prepare, submit, or sign the rebuttal argument.

Impartial Analysis by the City Attorney
The State Elections Code Section 9280 authorizes the Council to direct the City Clerk to transmit a copy of the measure to the City Attorney. The City Attorney is then required to prepare an impartial analysis of the measure showing the effect of the measure on the existing law and the operation of the measure. The authorization is included in the attached resolution(s).

Use of Public Funds for Ballot Measures
Although the City has broad discretion to make public expenditures, as a governmental agency, the City is prohibited from spending public funds for communications that promote a partisan position in an election campaign unless the expenditure is explicitly permitted by law. A public agency may not make expenditures that mount a campaign on behalf of the passage or defeat of a ballot measure.

Communications that expressly advocate for or against a ballot measure are explicitly prohibited.

This applies even when the Council has placed a measure on the ballot. California Government Code Section 54964(a) provides that “an officer, employee, or consultant of a local agency may not expend or authorize the expenditure of any of the funds of the local agency to support or oppose the approval or rejection of a ballot measure, or the election or defeat of a candidate, by the voters.” “Expenditure” is defined in Section 54964(b) as the use of local agency funds for "communications that expressly advocate the approval or rejection of a clearly, identified ballot measure, or the election or defeat of a clearly identified candidate, by the voters.

The City may only use public funds on communications that provide impartial information about the subject matter of a ballot measure, and only if the communication provides a “fair presentation of facts” that is informational rather than promotional.

Conclusion
Should the City Council wish to place the ballot measure on the November 5, 2024 Municipal Election ballot, appropriate documentation supporting formal action by the City Council must be received by the Santa Clara County Registrar of Voters no later than August 9, 2024.

FISCAL IMPACT
The proposed bonds, if the bond measure is approved by voters, would be payable solely from a property tax levy on all taxable property within the City, which will be based on assessed property value. The bonds will not be an obligation of the General Fund or any other City funds.

For the November 2024 election, the cost to place a measure on the ballot is estimated at $118,000 each. Based on the FY 2024/25 elections budget of $420,000 and the estimated cost for the regularly scheduled items to go forward, additional funding of $82,000 would be needed for one measure and $200,000 would be needed for two measures. If the City Council decides to place measure(s) on the ballot, a budget amendment will be brought forward to add funding from the General Fund Budget Stabilization Reserve.

COORDINATION
This report has been coordinated with the City Manager’s office, the City Clerk’s office, the Finance Department, and the City Attorney.

PUBLIC CONTACT
A summary of proposed Ordinance No. 2069 was published to the Santa Clara Weekly on July 10, 2024, and copies were posted in three public places and made available for public inspection at the City Clerk’s Office.

Public contact was made by posting the Council agenda on the City’s official-notice bulletin board outside City Hall Council Chambers. A complete agenda packet is available on the City’s website and in the City Clerk’s Office at least 72 hours prior to a Regular Meeting and 24 hours prior to a Special Meeting. A hard copy of any agenda report may be requested by contacting the City Clerk’s Office at (408) 615-2220, email [email protected] <mailto:[email protected]> or at the public information desk at any City of Santa Clara public library.

REPORT TO COUNCIL

SUBJECT
Action on a Written Petition (Council Policy 030) Submitted by Councilmember Jain to Appropriate Funds to Support the Work of the Charter Review Committee as well as Strategic Policy Analysis, Voter Research, Community Engagement and Other Related Costs Associated with Election Activities and Potential Ballot Measures in 2024

COUNCIL PILLAR
Enhance Community Engagement and Transparency

BACKGROUND
At its meeting of July 11, 2023, the City Council took action to consider the 030 Written Petition submitted by Councilmember Jain to establish a budget for the Charter Review Committee as well as funding for research, community engagement, and other costs associated with the potential placement of measures on the ballot in March 2024. In considering this petition, the City Council requested that staff return on July 18, 2023 with a proposed budget amendment to fund these, and other related outreach efforts, in support of potential election activities for 2024.

The purpose of this report is to provide the City Council with an overview of the projected costs as well as related budget amendment information should the City Council wish to take that action.

DISCUSSION
On July 6, 2023, the City Council voted to establish a Charter Review Committee (“Committee”) for the purposes of evaluating and recommending whether an amendment to the City Charter to change the positions of Police Chief and City Clerk from elected to appointed positions should be placed before the voters on a March 2024 ballot.

At its July 11, 2023 meeting, the City Council voted to consider a written petition from Councilmember Jain to prepare a budget amendment that would establish funding to support the work of the Committee as well as other outreach and election costs related to the possible placement of two measures before the voters in March 2024. As part of its discussion, the Council also requested that staff include costs for similar expenses for the November 2024 election.

Election Costs
The Santa Clara County Registrar of Voters is responsible for projecting the costs for placement of items on the ballot. Should the City decide to proceed with an election in March 2024 to amend the City Charter, that election would be considered a special election.

As noted in the July 6, 2023 staff report (RTC 23-748), the ROV has estimated the cost for two City of Santa Clara Page 1 of 4 Printed on 10/10/2023

measures on the March 5, 2024 ballot to be approximately $362,000. In addition to this amount, the City would incur approximately $60,000-70,000 for costs associated with printing, translation services, the publication of notices, another other related costs for a total of approximately $432,000.

The Adopted FY 2023/24 Budget includes funding in the amount of $360,000 to support election costs. Based on the preliminary information provided by the Registrar of Voters, an additional $72,000 will be needed should the Council decide to place two measures on the March 2024 ballot. It is important to note that the costs of a special election tend to be higher as there are fewer agencies with whom costs are shared. It is also important to note that the projected cost of $432,000 is a preliminary estimate subject to change should other agencies choose to place items on a March ballot.

For the November 2024 regular election, costs will be shared among a greater number of agencies.

While the Registrar of Voters has not yet provided an estimate of costs for a November 2024 ballot, the cost for the City’s November 2022 ballot which included Mayoral and Council elections, two ballot measures and related legal publications was $398,137. The Adopted FY2024/25 Budget includes funding in the amount of $420,000 which should be sufficient to cover the November 2024 electionrelated costs.

Outreach, Engagement & Policy Analysis
During deliberations on the proposed budget, the Council indicated a desire to consider revenue measures on the November 2024 ballot. In the fall, a study session will be held to provide the City Council with updated information on unfunded needs as well as various policy options should the Council wish to pursue potential revenue measures on the November 2024 ballot.

Given the Council’s prior direction to ensure that there is sufficient funding to conduct the strategic policy analysis, voter research, and the community engagement necessary to ensure the proper vetting of proposed ballot measures as well as the current request to consider a budget amendment to support the work of the Charter Review Committee, the following table provides a summary of potential costs for Council’s consideration.

It is important to note that the proposed schedule of costs for the November ballot measures includes costs for a follow-up voter research poll that is not included in the projected costs for a March election. This is based on the assumption that an initial poll may be needed to evaluate community preferences on revenue options and a follow-up survey to evaluate the need for additional voter education once specific revenue measures have been identified.

The line item funding is based on the expenses incurred in the most recent voter education and outreach efforts, escalated by 15% to allow for both increased cost and a contingency should additional services be required.

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The action being considered does not constitute a “project” within the meaning of the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) pursuant to CEQA Guidelines section 15378(a) as it has no potential for resulting in either a direct physical change in the environment or a reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment.

FISCAL IMPACT
Should the Council wish to appropriate funding to place two measures on a March 2024 ballot, an additional $72,000 should be appropriated. In addition, should the Council wish to appropriate funding for the outreach, engagement and policy analysis activities noted above, an additional $358,455 should also be appropriated. With this in mind, a total budget amendment in the amount of $430,455 would be needed. Funding is available in the General Fund FY 2023/24 Budget Balancing Reserve for this purpose.

SUBJECT
A. Discussion and Potential Actions Related to Proposed November 2024 Ballot Measure Authorizing the Issuance of General Obligation Bond Debt to Fund Public Infrastructure; Such Actions to Include the Following:

1. Adoption of a Resolution of Necessity

2. Introduction of an Ordinance Ordering the Submission of a Measure Incurring Bonded Indebtedness to the Voters at the November 2024 General Municipal Election

BACKGROUND
Unfunded Capital Needs
Over the last several years, the need for capital infrastructure investment has been identified and discussed as part of the budget and the City Council’s annual Priority Setting Processes. While the City’s utility infrastructure is well funded, there are significant funding gaps in other areas. For capital infrastructure where the General Fund is the primarily funding source, the City has relied on a pay-as -you-go approach using funds set aside in the Capital Projects Reserve. This reserve is funded by General Fund surplus funds at the end of a fiscal year and is insufficient to address the City’s considerable infrastructure needs.

As part of the development of the FY 2024/25 and FY 2025/26 Biennial Capital Budget, over $600 million in City infrastructure needs were identified where the General Fund would be the primary funding source. This amount included the most immediate needs over the next five years and did not fully account for all unfunded needs in the City. In 2024 alone, the City received over $2700 million in infrastructure requests from the various departments with only $24 million available in the Capital Projects Reserve. Aging roads, bridges, underground stormdrain pipes, and sidewalks all need repairs and maintenance to meet performance, safety, and accessibility needs for residents. The City Fire Department handles approximately 10,000 service calls each year, a 14 percent increase over the past decade. Several of the City’s local fire stations are 50 to 55 years old and in need of seismic upgrades and other enhancements to ensure emergency and disaster preparedness and response.

Additionally, funding is needed to ensure safe routes and intersections for kids to get to school; safer roads for drivers, pedestrians, and bicyclists; and safe, well-maintained parks, playground, community and recreation facilities, and libraries for our community.

Given the significant infrastructure needs, the City Council took action on July 18, 2023, to approve funding in the amount of $358,000 for outreach, engagement, and policy analysis to support activities related to potential November 2024 ballot measures (RTC 23-913). A study session on the unfunded needs including a presentation of revenue options and workplan for a November 2024 ballot measure was subsequently held on October 24, 2023. In addition, during the two-day 2024 Council Priority Setting Session on March 25 and April 3, 2024, the City Manager presented on the City’s unfunded capital needs and the potential for the City to explore a general obligation (GO) bond measure. Staff have been working with consultants to explore the feasibility of such a bond.

It is also important to note that this is not the first time the City of Santa Clara has recently considered a general obligation bond to address its mounting infrastructure needs. In 2018, the City considered asking voters to approve an infrastructure bond but elected to wait because the Santa Clara United School District was placing a bond on the same ballot. In November 2018, Santa Clara voters approved Measure BB, providing $720 million for school facilities. Additionally, in 2020, the City was preparing to reactivate its efforts for an infrastructure bond, however, negative economic conditions brought on by COVID-19 caused the City to postpone once again.

Polling Results
During the April 23 and June 4, 2024 City Council meetings, consultants from Tulchin Research presented two rounds of scientific polling surveys. Both surveys were conducted among likely November 2024 general election voters, including newly registered voters and those who have voted in at least one of the past four elections. The initial benchmarking survey took place from April 1 through April 4, and the second survey from May 18 through May 22. Both surveys were offered in English, Chinese, Spanish, and Vietnamese and were conducted by phone to reach a total of 800 City of Santa Clara Page 2 of 9 Printed on 7/12/2024

likely voters.

A majority of voters indicated they felt Santa Clara could benefit from additional investment in public infrastructure, and that they generally support measures that provide local funding to address infrastructure or service needs. The most popular areas for potential funding continue to include (not in ranked order):
· Public safety improvements (upgrades to 9-1-1 emergency, medical, fire, and disaster response);
· Street safety (fixing potholes and making roaders safer for drivers, pedestrians, and bicyclists); and
· Storm drain improvements (repairs to underground stormwater pipes to prevent erosion and sinkholes).

Community Outreach
In addition to the two likely-voter surveys, the consultant team released a Community Mailer Survey to gather additional thoughts from the community using a broad approach. This mailer went out to over 30,000 households and was made available at City facilities. Responses to this community mailer were submitted online via a QR code or as a tear-off survey to be mailed back to the City. This community feedback method received over 800 responses to date consisting of nearly 500 online responses and over 300 mailed back.

To ensure the community has information about the topic, the City has established a dedicated webpage to help voters learn about the potential bond measure and stay up to date with current information being provided. To support voter education, a fact sheet will also be available at City Hall, the Senior Center, the Community Recreation Center, all City libraries, and other City facilities. In addition, the City has shared educational information about the proposed measure on social media.

DISCUSSION
Based on community feedback of voter priorities related to improvements throughout Santa Clara, and to meet the City’s over $600 million in infrastructure needs, staff is recommending that the City Council place a GO bond measure on the November 2024 ballot. Voter polling indicated that the community is equally supportive of either a $598 million or a $298 million bond measure. Because of this and due to the severity of the City’s infrastructure needs, staff is recommending the proposed $598 million bond measure option. As part of the Council presentation, staff will also provide the financial breakdown of a potential bond option for $298 million and is seeking council direction.

If the voters were to approve a $598 million GO bond measure, it would be funded by levying an estimated $29 per $100,000 of assessed property value annually. In this scenario, the property tax bill for each of the largest 20 commercial property owners in Santa Clara would increase by an average of $290,000 per year while a typical homeowner would pay on average an additional $195 per year.

If voters were to approve a $298 million GO bond measure, it would be funded by levying an estimated $16 per $100,000 of assessed property value annually. In this scenario, the property tax bill for each of the largest 20 commercial property owners in Santa Clara would increase by an average of $160,000 per year while a typical homeowner would pay on average an additional $110 per year.

Voter Approval
Approval of the bond measure requires that 2/3rds of all qualified voters voting on the proposition at the November 2024 election vote in favor. If this threshold is met, the City would have the authority to issue and sell the bonds in one or more series, in the maximum amount determined at tonight’s meeting, and for the objects and purposes set forth in the Ordinance described below.

If issued, the bonds would be general obligations of the City payable from, and secured by, ad valorem taxes levied and collected on taxable property in the City. The revenue generated from the ad valorem taxes would be used solely for the payment of debt service on the bonds and for no other purpose.

Additionally, a measure known as Assembly Constitutional Amendment 10 (ACA 10) was recently placed on the November ballot. ACA 10 formalizes Assembly Constitutional Amendment 1 (ACA1) and would treat cities like K-12 school districts and community colleges, allowing for bonds to pass at a 55% supermajority, subject to certain accountability provisions. The proposed GO bond measure the City is considering to help address infrastructure needs would be written in a manner that meets or exceeds all of the accountability requirements of ACA10, and would be valid under the new rules if ACA10 were to pass statewide in November.

Proposed Ballot Language
California Elections Code Section 9051 requires that a ballot question not exceed 75 words (with the word count determined pursuant to statute) California Elections Code Section 13119 (c) also requires that the statement of the measure “shall be a true and impartial synopsis of the purpose of the proposed measure and shall be in language that is neither argumentative nor likely to create prejudice for or against the measure.”
Based on voter polling, feedback from the City Council, input from the City’s legal counsel, and City infrastructure priorities, the following ballot question is presented below for the City Council’s consideration.

To improve 911 emergency rapid response; fix potholes, repair and improve streets throughout Santa Clara; fix underground stormdrains/pipes to prevent sinkholes; provide safer roads and routes to school for drivers, pedestrians; and repair/maintain safe public facilities; shall the City of Santa Clara’s measure authorizing $598,000,000 in bonds, funded by levying an estimated $29/$100,000 of assessed value while bonds are outstanding, generating approximately $35,000,000 annually, with annual audits and citizen oversight of spending, be adopted?
Yes
No
After Council input at the July 9th meeting, the final ballot question language will be presented for approval in the Resolution Placing the Measure on the Ballot to be considered at the July 16 Council meeting.

Sources of Bond Repayment
If the bond measure were to be approved by voters, any bonds issued would be payable solely from revenues generated by a property tax levy on all taxable property within the City of Santa Clara, City of Santa Clara Page 4 of 9 Printed on 7/12/2024
powered by Legistar™
File #: 24-180, Version: 1
based on assessed property value. The bonds will not be an obligation of the general fund or any other City revenue source.

The “assessed” value of real property can be very different than its “market value.” “Assessed value” is determined by the County Assessor under Proposition 13 based on the most recent actual sale price of the property, plus up to 2% per year thereafter. “Market value” is what a property could be sold for on the open market at any given time. As a result, property that has been held by one owner for many years that may have a high “market value” is likely to have a significantly lower “assessed value” than a similar property that has recently sold.

Transparency and Accountability
The City’s proposed GO bond measure would incorporate stringent transparency and accountability provisions as outlined in the following Transparency and Accountability Plan (Attachment 4).

Community Oversight Committee Structure and Operations
As mentioned in the Transparency and Accountability Plan, staff recommend the Community Oversight Committee include representation from key stakeholders within the community including representation from the residential, small business, and large business sectors. All members of the Community Oversight Committee would be subject to conflict of interest and Brown Act provisions.

Additionally, staff recommends staggered four-year term limits, requirements for background/experience in financial audits for applicants representing the business community, and that process for chair selection be determined with direction from Council. In addition to the provisions included in the bond measure regarding Community Oversight Committee requirements, the creation of the Committee and the details of its operation, would be implemented by ordinance approved by the City Council.

Actions Required to Place the Measure on the November 2024 ballot Three actions are required by the Council to place the bond measure on the November 2024 ballot:

1. At this meeting, consider and approve the Resolution of Necessity and hold the first reading of the bond measure Ordinance. Approval of the Resolution requires a 2/3rds approval by the Council (that is, 5 yes votes).

2. At the July 16 Council meeting, consider and approve the Resolution Placing the Measure on the Ballot and hold a second reading and adoption of the Ordinance. Adoption of the Ordinance requires a 2/3rds approval by the Council (that is, 5 yes votes). These documents are further described below.

3. If this process is successfully completed by the Council, the final Ordinance and Resolution Placing the Measure on the Ballot would need to be submitted (along with other required documents) to the Santa Clara County Registrar of Voters by the August 9, 2024 deadline for the measure to appear on the November 2024 ballot. The Ordinance and Resolution Placing the Measure on the Ballot will appear in the ballot pamphlet sent to each voter before the election.

Each of these action items are described in more detail, below.

1. Resolution of Necessity
The Resolution of Necessity (Attachment 1), required by California Government Code §43607 to be passed by an affirmative vote of 2/3rd of the Council (this is, at least five Council members).

This Resolution determines that the public interest or necessity demands the acquisition, construction, or completion of the municipal improvements, and that the costs of the improvements will require an expenditure by the City greater than allowed for it by the City’s annual tax levy. The resolution also appoints Public Financial Management, as municipal advisor to the City, and Jones Hall, A Professional Law Corporation as bond counsel for the City for the proposed bond issue. Such services would be provided under the terms of agreements still in effect with such consultants that were originally entered into back in 2020 and 2019 respectively, with updated fee schedules as required, to be approved by the City Manager and the City Attorney.

2. Ordinance
The Ordinance (Attachment 2) includes information required by California Government Code §43610, including the object and purpose of bonds, a description of the improvements to be financed with the proceeds of the bonds, the estimated costs of the improvements of $598 million, and the manner of holding the election.

The improvements described in the Ordinance consist of public infrastructure improvements that include streets and transportation improvements, improvements to public safety facilities, improvements to parks and community facilities, storm drain and flood protection improvements, and improvements to other City facilities.

The Ordinance establishes the maximum principal amount of the bonds, estimates the total costs of the improvements, establishes a maximum interest rate, and establishes the Transparency and Accountability Plan measures described above.

3. Resolution Placing the Measure on the Ballot
The Resolution Placing the Measure on the Ballot would be scheduled for the next regular meeting on July 16, and would be considered for adoption only if the Ordinance is adopted. This resolution sets forth the 75-word ballot question and other procedural details regarding the election, including actions related to authorship of direct and rebuttal arguments for the measure which would appear in the voter information guide.

Future Issuance of Bonds
If the bond measure is approved by voters, the bonds may be issued in one or more series as needed to pay authorized improvement costs. Timing and amount of each bond issuance will depend on market factors, funding needs to support the plan for construction the improvements, and other factors. The issuance of each series of bonds, and the specific projects to be financed, will subject to express approval by resolution of this Council.

The actual interest rate on each series of bonds will be determined at the time of issuance. As of June 20, 2024, interest rates on general obligation bonds issued by the City, if assigned credit ratings of “AA+” by Standard & Poor’s and “Aa2” by Moody’s Investors Service with level annual payments, would bear estimated interest rates of 4-5% for a 30-year term.

Potential Public Works Charter Amendment
In addition to the potential bond measure, staff is proposing a Charter amendment (Attachment 3) which updates the City’s public works procurement process in a number of ways. The amendment proposes to increase the amount requiring the formal bidding of public works contracts from $1,000 to $250,000. The $1,000 limit was originally set in the 1951 City Charter and has not been increased in over 70 years. Another key change is to expressly authorize the use of the design-build procurement process to streamline construction and implementation of infrastructure improvement projects. Design-build is a project delivery method that combines design and construction services in one contract allowing for a more streamlined and cost-effective process for delivering projects.

Additional proposed amendments differentiate between “major” (above $500,000) and “minor” (at or below $500,000) public works projects for City Council versus City Manager approval purposes and provides for implementation of terms for possible exceptions to formal bidding processes, and special rules for utility projects, if approved by the City Council by ordinance as part of an overall program determined to be in the best interests of the City. Other technical updates are also included. Voter polling shows a voter comfort with amending the City Charter to improve and streamline construction efforts. This will be particularly important if a bond were to pass as the City would be driving various infrastructure projects forward. Staff requests Council provide initial input on the draft Charter amendment. If Council is supportive, staff will finalize the proposed amendment language, develop a formal ballot question, and bring the package back for final Council consideration at the July 16th Council meeting.

Conclusion
Should the City Council decide to place the ballot question on the November 5, 2024 Special Municipal Election ballot, appropriate documentation supporting formal action by the City Council must be received by the Santa Clara County Registrar of Voters no later than August 9, 2024. In order to meet this timeline without having to schedule a meeting, action would need to be taken on the Resolution of Necessity and First Reading of the Ordinance at this meeting.

ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW
The action being considered does not constitute a “project” within the meaning of the California Environmental Quality Act (“CEQA”) pursuant to CEQA Guidelines section 15378(a) as it has no potential for resulting in either a direct physical change in the environment, or a reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment.

FISCAL IMPACT
The proposed bonds, if the bond measure is approved by voters, would be payable solely from a property tax levy on all taxable property within the City, which will be based on assessed property City of Santa Clara Page 8 of 9 Printed on 7/12/2024

File #: 24-180, Version: 1
value. The bonds will not be an obligation of the General Fund or any other City funds.

COORDINATION
This report has been coordinated with the Finance Department, the City Attorney’s Office, the City Clerk’s Office, and the City Manager.

July 5, 2024
Section 1. Section 1310 of the Charter of the City of Santa Clara, entitled “Contracts on public works”, is amended and restated to read in its entirety as follows:

Sec. 1310 Contracts on public works.

Every contract involving an expenditure of more than one two hundred fifty thousand dollars ($1,000.00250,000) for the construction or improvement, (excluding maintenance and repair), of public buildings, works, streets, drains, sewers, utilities, parks and playgrounds (“Public Works Projects”) shall be let to the lowest responsive and responsible bidder after notice by publication in an official newspaper by one or more insertions, the first of which shall be at least ten days before the time for opening bids.
“Major Public Works Projects,” defined as projects estimated to cost greater than $500,000, shall be subject to approval by the City Council. “Minor Public Works Projects” defined as projects estimated to cost $500,000 or less shall be subject to approval by the City Manager.

The City Council or the City Manager, whichever is the approving authority, may reject any and all bids presented and may re-advertise in its discretion.

The City Council Such approving authority, without advertising for bids, or after rejecting bids, or if no bids are received, may declare and determine that, in its opinion, the work in question may be performed better or more economically by the City with its own employees and, upon such determination, the City after the adoption of a resolution to this effect by at least four affirmative votes, it may proceed to have said work done in the manner stated, without further observance of the provisions of this section. Such contracts likewise may be let without advertising for bids, if such work shall be deemed by the City Council approving authority to be of urgent necessity for the preservation of life, health or property, and shall be authorized by motion passed by at least four affirmative votes and containing a declaration of the facts constituting such urgency.

The City Council may adopt an ordinance to implement the terms of this Section. Such ordinance may include limited exceptions to the bid solicitation and award provisions set forth above, including special procurement rules for utility projects; provided, however, that any such exception(s) or special rule(s) shall be implemented as part of a City-wide policy or program determined to be in the best overall interests of the City.

Notwithstanding any provisions of this Charter to the contrary, the City may also employ a design-build process for the procurement of Public Works projects. A “design-build process” shall mean a process in which the design and construction of a Public Works Project are procured from a single entity. Prior to employing the design-build process, the City Council shall, by ordinance, establish solicitation and procurement procedures and standards to solicit, qualify, evaluate and select design-build proposals.

City Transparency and Accountability Plan
Potential November 2024 City General Obligation Bond Measure Based on community priorities from voter polling and community outreach, and to meet the City’s $624 M infrastructure needs, staff recommend that the City Council place a General Obligation (GO) bond measure on the November 2024 ballot. Voter polling indicates that the community is equally supportive of either a $598 M bond measure or a $298 M bond measure. Because of this voter willingness, and the significant infrastructure needs in Santa Clara, staff is recommending the proposed $598 M bond measure option. The proposed bond would be up to $598 M. In a $598 M scenario, the bond would be funded by leveraging up to an estimated $29 per $100,000 of assessed (not market) property value.

As part of the Council presentation, staff will also present the financial breakdown of a potential bond option for $298 M and is seeking council direction.

Transparency and Accountability
Both community and City Council feedback included guidance on developing a Transparency and Accountability Plan as part of the proposed bond measure. The City’s proposed GO bond measure would incorporate stringent transparency and accountability provisions as outlined in the following Transparency and Accountability Plan. Additionally, all components of the City’s Accountability and Transparency Plan will meet all requirements for ACA 10.

Transparency and Accountability Plan

1. Council approval of an Expenditure Plan, including project category areas and related spending amounts, concurrent with placing a bond on the ballot. [Ordinance Section 13(b)(i)]

2. Process for making changes to the Expenditure Plan would require:
o Staff recommendation;
o Community Oversight Committee review and input; and
o Unanimous approval from the City Council. [Ordinance Section 13(b)(ii)]

Business representatives shall have experience in budgeting, accounting, finance, and/or audit. Additionally, no business representative shall work for, have previously worked for, or be employed by a firm that provides services to any professional sports teams within the City of Santa Clara. Business representatives need not be residents but must be an owner or employee of a business headquartered within the City. Members appointed to the Committee shall receive educational training about bonds and fiscal oversight.

The role of the Committee shall be to (a) ensure that project implementation is consistent with the bond requirements and the Expenditure Plan, (b) review and report on annual audits, and (c) review and provide recommendations to the City Council on any proposed amendment to the Expenditure Plan. [Ordinance Sections 13(a)(viii) and 13(b)(iv)] Transparency and Accountability Plan

5. Strict prohibition on the use of any bond proceeds for:
o Levi’s Stadium improvements;
o Any projects for the sole benefit of Levi’s Stadium; and o Any projects within the 0.5 miles of Levi’s Stadium, except improvements in existing residential neighborhoods or business districts designed to be of substantial direct benefit to those areas and not Levi’s Stadium; and
o For the direct or indirect benefit of any professional sports team [Ordinance Section 13(b)(iii)]

6. Funds could only be used for public infrastructure projects that serve the City of Santa Clara. [Ordinance Section 13(a)(ii)]

7. All bond proceeds are to be deposited into a separate account(s) and tracked on a projectby-project basis to facilitate project oversight and legal compliance audits. [Ordinance Section 13(a)(x)]

10.For projects requiring mail notice, increase the requirement for mail notifications to all properties surrounding bond funded projects from 500 feet to 1,000 feet. [Ordinance Section 13(b)(v)]

City Infrastructure Needs
• Over $600 million in City infrastructure needs identified where the General Fund is the primary funding source
Why $600 Million?
City has completed several studies over time, with no funding sources to implement the needed changes
• Parks and Recreation Facility Condition Assessment (Kitchell Report) - $66.5M (2018 dollars)
• Storm Drain Master Plan - $290M (2018 dollars)
• Pedestrian Master Plan - $194M (2020 dollars)
• Creek Trail Master Plan (in progress) - $37M estimate • Bike Master Plan - $40M (2019 dollars)
Without dedicated funding, City cannot act on study findings and escalation increases project costs

from the Overpass to Bayshore Freew>y; El Camino from
Scott Lane to Lawrence Ro,d; Stevens Creek Blvd. from Lawrence Road to Winchester Road; and some replocement work.

PROPOSITION D
Storm Drain Improvements
$1,350,000 Total Cost
New :md additional storm drains will be insulled wherever needed in the City so that all portions of the City will be protected from flood waters. The rapid residential growth of the City has, in effect, c reated artifical water sheds which impound w•ters which previously percolated into the ground but which now must be carried off by storm drains.

PROPOSITION E
Fire Department Improvements
$1,300,000 Total Cost · New fire st•tions will be built in .reas of the City not now properly protected, and the present he,dquarters sution will be remodeled. In addition, it is the present intention of the Council to purchase as needed, 10 new fire engines, ruong with accessory equipment to keep our fire department up to the necesS3ry sundards for a Oass 3 fire insur:mce rating.

Additional improvements will :ilso be m,de on the fire alarm circuits, fire al:trm control equipment, pull boxes and the fire radio circuits.

In approving this bond issue, we can probably obtain
!owe~ fire insurance rates, therby enjoying an ,dditional saving for the property owners of the City.

PROPOSITION F
Library Department Improvements
$800,000 Total Cost
Our present Library was designed to serve a populotion
of only about 20,000 persons. It now attempts to sen·e over 50,000 people and cannot adequately do so. No city can grow educationally or cultur:illy without adequate library facilities which should be readily and · easily av:tilable to all of our residents. The passage of this proposistion is needed to accomplish these pwposcs.

PROPOSITION G
Police Administration Building
$105,000 Total Cost
The City's Police Adminstration Building is nearing
completion from a structural standpoint. Hov.·ever, additional funds for necessary facilities can be .cquired and completed for m:i.int3nining the police vehicles, inclusion of storage facilities, • garage, p•ving of parking areas, landscaping and furniture •nd equipment for the building which are lacking.

The proposed bon<l issue is neces53ry to supply these facilities.

PROPOSITION H
Corporation Yard Improvements
·$305,000 Total Cost The City's present Corporation Y>rd and facilities were acquired when the City had a population •nd equipment for • city of less than 10.000 popul•tion. \Vic ha,·e grown fivefold and our p~esent facilities arc inadcquate and inefficient to take care of our present and future needs. The propos-ed bond issue will supply the necess,ry machinery and site to climinnte present costly duplications and ineffitjency in maintaining our trucks, autos and other City equipment.

All of the foregoing propositions will be financed by
general obligation bonds which the City proposes to issue.

While the t.xing power of the City will be pledged to pay these bonds ,nd the interest thereon, the City has Ir.id surveys made of its future income and as a result theeof, it is anticip•tcd that no increase in City wes will be required to pay said general obligation bonds, but it is anticipated that the City's income from srues wcs, gas t2x funds, recreational lot fees, subdivision fees, subvention fees and the lilce, will be sufficient to p•y the same without any raise in property t:acs.

PROPOSITION I
Sewer Enterprise
$5,120,000 Total Cost
The City owns a 20% interest in the San Jose-Santa Clara Sewage Treatment Plant. San Jose :md S,nta Clara arc obligated by law to provide adequate treatment of their sewage in order to dischorge the same into S:m Francisco Bay. The Water Pollution Board has ordered this second•ry tn:fflllent pbnt to be completed within three years. Santa Clara's share thereof will cost 4 million dollars. This sum must be paid.

Revenue bonds payable out of sewer revenues will finance said costs without any raise in property taus.

PROPOSmON J
Water Enterprise
$1,580,000 Total Cost Water is vibl to the very existence of our City. and its residents. At the present time, Santa Clora Jacks adequate storage facilities, pumping plants, transmission lines, wells and other facilities. The $1,580,000 bond issue will provide funds for the insbllation of these necessary improvements, without increasing our b.xcs or water rates.

The water revenue bonds will be entirely self-supporting.

PROPOSmON K 1
Electric: Enterprise
$1,500,000 Total Cost Electric power is a necessity in our modern civilintion.

The $1,500,000 electric revenue bonds will provide funds for the installation of new pi:m•er stations, transmission lines and other facilities to put our electric department on a par with our City's requirements. The bonds must be cnlirely ,elf. supporting and there will not be any increase in our electric rates. Since this is a revenue bond issue, no taxes can ever be leried to pay for it.

The afores,id revenue bond propoS3ls will not increase
taxes, for under state 12.w the taxing power of the City cannot be pledged or used to pay the bonds or the interest thereon, but the revenues to be derived from each enterprise 3re pledged to pay off the respective bonds and interest thereon issued therefor.

All of the foregoing arguments were
submitted by the Citizen's Committee for
City Bonds.
