Exhibit "C"
Years of Service
Years of Service will be calculated from the employee’s date of hire with the City of West Sacramento, East Yolo Community Services District, or Washington Water.

Replacement of Social Security Benefits
The parties agree to the following in order to fully replace any and all benefits that were lost to the former East Yolo Community Services District (EYCSD) employees when the City of West Sacramento chose not to participate as active contributors in the Federal Social Security System:

For employees hired prior to January 1, 1987, after all mandatory contributions by both the employer and employee which remain or result from the employee's not participating fully in the Social Security System and the California Public Employee's Retirement System (CalPERS) by the City and the employee, as of December, 1986, the remainder shall be placed into an employee's account in an approved deferred compensation program. While the employer agrees to match the employee's contribution to the deferred compensation plan, its total contribution (together with other obligations, e.g., Medicare, additional CalPERS, etc.) shall not exceed the City's total obligation for combined CalPERS and Social Security contributions on behalf of the employee as of December 1986.

For example: Employee $1,800/mo. gross pay:

December 1986
Employer's Contribution Employee's Contribution
CalPERS* 14.27% $256.86 0.00% $0.00
Medicare 1.45% 26.10 1.45% 26.10
Total 15.72% $282.96 1.45% $26.10
*On gross pay less $133.33 because of coordination of Social Security January 1987
Employer's Contribution Employee's Contribution
CalPERS 14.27% $256.86 0.00% $0.00
Medicare 1.45% 26.10 1.45% 26.10
Sub Total 15.72% $282.96 1.45% 26.10
Trust Fund 4.64% $83.57 5.70% $102.70
Total 20.36% $366.53 7.15% $128.70
Employees who are currently excluded from coverage under Social Security shall have the option to contribute to the deferred compensation plan but such voluntary contributions shall not be matched by employer contributions.

Any obligations arising under this Section shall cease should the employer and subject employees become covered by the Social Security System.

SUBJECT:

CONSIDERATION OF A CONTRACT WITH VALLEY VISION TO UPDATE THE CITY’S

BROADBAND INFRASTRUCTURE ASSESSMENT AND ACTION PLAN, AND CONSIDERATION OF RESOLUTION 22-121 AUTHORIZING A BUDGET APPROPRIATION OF $85,000 TO FUND THE PROPOSED REPORT
INITIATED OR REQUESTED BY: REPORT COORDINATED OR PREPARED BY:

ATTACHMENT [ X ] Yes [ ] No [ ] Information [ ] Direction [ X ] Action

OBJECTIVE
The purpose of this report is to request the City Council’s authority to enter into a contract with Valley Vision to prepare an update to the City’s Broadband Action Plan and to provide related consulting services, and to request Council approval of Resolution 22-121 authorizing a budget appropriation of $85,000 for the subject services.

RECOMMENDED ACTION
Staff respectfully recommends that the City Council:

1. Approve and authorize the City Manager or his designee to execute the proposed contract with Valley Vision to prepare an update to the City’s Broadband Action Plan and to provide related consulting services in substantially the form shown in Attachment 1;

2. Authorize the City Manager or his designee to take any actions he deems necessary to effectuate that contract, including without limitation making non-substantive edits to the contract or attachments following their approval by the Council; and

3. Approve Resolution 22-121 authorizing a budget appropriation of $85,000 from Measure E to fund the proposed contract.

BACKGROUND
As Internet-enabled devices increasingly become the gateway to full participation in the social and economic functions of society, the availability of fast, reliable Internet access has become a necessity for individuals and businesses seeking to succeed and thrive. In that sense, broadband is becoming a form of backbone infrastructure. However, unlike water, roads, and other forms of infrastructure that are traditionally provided by a municipality, broadband is typically provided by a web of private telecommunications companies, making it difficult for local jurisdictions to affect broadband quality or distribution within their borders.

Like many jurisdictions, West Sacramento has labored to better understand its broadband landscape. In 2017, the City developed its first Broadband Infrastructure Assessment and Action Plan (2017 Broadband Plan). This plan made five key findings, including:
 The primary broadband infrastructure in West Sacramento is near average when compared to California as a whole, which puts it at “the top of the class” for Yolo County cities, but it lags those in Sacramento County.
 Mobile broadband service varies by provider, with some offering citywide coverage, and others showing significant gaps in availability and/or capacity.
 There is excellent industrial-class broadband infrastructure in West Sacramento, with several east-west and north/south transcontinental fiber routes crossing the city, two data centers, and metropolitan fiber networks capable of serving local businesses. The City of West Sacramento owns a significant amount of telecommunications conduit that could support expansion and greater utilization of these resources.  Businesspeople in West Sacramento generally believe that the Internet service they receive is not fast or reliable enough for their needs.
377
Broadband Action Plan Update

 A glaring digital divide exists in West Sacramento, with lower income households showing lower broadband adoption rates than higher income households.

The 2017 Broadband Plan included several recommended actions, several of which the City had begun to act upon prior to the onset of the COVID crisis in 2020. These recommendations included:
 Work to improve broadband adoption by reducing barriers to deployment, advocating for residents and businesses with state and federal regulators, and promote access to low-income broadband programs  Lease City-owned conduit to telecommunications companies to help facilitate upgrades to existing broadband service
 Enact policies that promote telecommunications competition and development, and work with providers to identify policy barriers that could be removed or incentives that could be offered to encourage greater investment in their systems in West Sacramento.

Following the adoption of the 2017 Broadband Plan, staff began implementing the recommendations noted above. The Community Development Department enacted a license agreement structure and a regulatory framework for providing timely review of applications from telecommunications companies seeking to install 5G broadband equipment on City infrastructure. To date, approximately 56 such permits have been processed for these improvements, which expand broadband availability for residents and businesses.

The City has also negotiated with telecommunications providers in the Bridge District and elsewhere to allow use of City conduits to provide improved broadband services to nearby subscribers, and has used social media and utility bill inserts to advertise federal government programs that aim to improve broadband affordability for lower income residents.

While the City has made diligent efforts to implement the 2017 Broadband Plan, the scale at which the City has operated to date does not appear to have made a substantial dent in public demand for broadband improvements. Staff continues to receive regular contacts from residents who are frustrated with their Internet service and seeking more alternatives. Businesses are still concerned about the speed and reliability of their Internet service, and the impact that service deficit may have on their bottom line. However, in 2020 and 2021, the COVID crisis forced the City to refocus staff capacity on core service delivery issues rather than forwardlooking efforts such as broadband expansion.

As the impacts of the COVID crisis stabilize, the City is again in a position to push for material progress towards improving broadband access and affordability for West Sacramento residents. However, with the passage of time, the City can no longer rely fully on the conclusions of the 2017 Broadband Plan. An update is necessary in order to assure that the City is responding to the most recent state of the fast-moving broadband market.

This report recommends an update to the 2017 plan and requests contracting and budgetary authority to hire Valley Vision to assist the City with this effort.

ANALYSIS
Founded in 1994, Valley Vision is a nonprofit consultancy focused on economic, environmental and social issues.

Valley Vision helps promote regional projects within an array of key impact areas, including 21st Century Workforce; Clean Economy; Food & Agriculture; Healthy Communities, Leadership and Civic Engagement; and Innovation and Infrastructure. Council and staff alike have attended events and educational opportunities hosted by Valley Vision.

One component of Valley Vision’s Innovation and Infrastructure practice is to help promote equitable access to digital infrastructure. To that end, Valley Vision has convened multiple educational meetings to share their expertise in the broadband arena, and position local jurisdictions to be more competitive for federal funding to improve broadband accessibility in their communities. Valley Vision’s qualifications in the broadband field are summarized in Attachment 2.

The City’s request for proposals (RFP) for the proposed updated broadband study was marketed online, where it was downloaded by 12 potential respondents and/or firms that re-market these opportunities for potential respondents. Valley Vision was the sole respondent to the RFP. Staff reviewed their submittal and concluded that Valley Vision has the necessary expertise to help the City position itself to compete for state and federal 378

grants and advocate with telecommunications companies to find ways to expand broadband access and affordability in West Sacramento.

The proposed contract is included as Attachment 1. As proposed, the agreement would run from September, 2022 to December, 2024. The updated broadband plan would be produced by mid-2023, after which Valley Vision would remain under contract with the City to provide additional consulting work, including but not limited to assistance with grant applications, outreach with telecommunications providers and relevant governmental entities, and assistance with the development of key implementation programs recommended in their report.

Total compensation for the contract is proposed to be $85,000, of which approximately $68,000 would be allocated to the production of the updated broadband plan, and the remaining $17,000 would be utilized to provide for approximately 100 hours of ongoing consultant services to help the City implement the recommendations of the new plan. Attachment 3 is Resolution 22-121, which would allocate the funds for this study from Measure E Smart City funds. Attachment 4 is the narrative required by the City Council’s Measure E policy document.

Staff is confident that with Valley Vision’s assistance, the City can make material progress towards its goal of improving broadband access and affordability for West Sacramento residents.

Environmental Considerations
This action is not a project that is subject to CEQA because it is not an activity that may cause either a direct or reasonably foreseeable indirect physical change in the environment. (Pub. Resources Code, § 21065; CEQA Guidelines §§ 15060(c), 15378(a).)
Commission Recommendation
N/A
Strategic Plan Integration
The actions recommended in this report effectuate the Council’s 2022 Strategic Plan Policy Agenda item, “Broadband Access and Affordability for All
Alternatives
The Council’s primary alternatives are summarized below:

1. Authorize the City Manager or his designee to execute the proposed contract with Valley Vision in substantially the form shown in Attachment 1 and to take any actions he deems necessary to effectuate that contract, including without limitation making non-substantive edits to the contract or attachments following their approval by the Council; and approve Resolution 22-121 authorizing a budget appropriation of $85,000 from 22-121 to fund the proposed contract.

2. Approve the proposed contract and approve Resolution 22-121, subject to specific changes outlined by the Council.

3. Direct staff to make changes to the contract, staff report, and/or resolution, and return with this item at a future date.

4. Decline to approve the recommended action, and direct staff to stop working on this project.

Alternative 1 is staff’s recommended action. Staff is prepared to effectuate Alternatives 2 or 3 at the Council’s direction. Staff strongly recommends against Alternative 4, because the City does not have the staff capacity to develop an updated broadband strategy on its own, and such a strategy is key to positioning the City to successfully pursue state and federal grants to improve broadband access and affordability in West Sacramento.

Coordination and Review
This report was prepared by the City Manager’s Office in collaboration with the Finance Department.

TECHNICAL PROJECT APPROACH
The City of West Sacramento seeks to update the 2016 Broadband Action Plan, providing the City with current data, information, priorities, and recommendations that will position it to best access state and federal funding that is becoming available to improve internet access and adoption. These efforts will result in:
• An increase in the percentage of West Sacramento residents with access to affordable broadband Internet at speeds consistent with common use cases (e.g., multiple simultaneous users in a household).
• An increase in the percentage of West Sacramento businesses with access to commercial class broadband Internet.
• An increase in the percentage of lower-income West Sacramento residents utilizing (as opposed to simply having potentially available) broadband Internet. • An increase in broadband speeds and reliability available to West Sacramento commercial and industrial customers.
• An increase in business and residential customer satisfaction with the speed and reliability of their broadband service.

To achieve these ends, Valley Vision will take a research-based approach to provide an up-to-date understanding of current conditions relating to broadband availability and access in West Sacramento, including an understanding of assets, needs, gaps, barriers, and opportunities. Those findings will be teamed with an investigation of best-in-class practices that are successfully fostering broadband access locally and throughout the nation to present recommended strategies for use by the City.

The following steps will be taken:
1) Assess the current state of broadband availability and access in West Sacramento.

TIMELINE: Months 1-2
Activities will include:
a. Collecting data from the California Public Utilities Commission on reported broadband service availability in all census blocks in West Sacramento. Speed thresholds have changed due to the State’s enactment of Broadband for All and new requirements for increased speeds.
b. Conducting ground speed testing in a sampling of geographies across West Sacramento to identify disparities between reported availability and actual availability. c. Mapping both business and residential broadband speed availability with city zoning for residential, commercial, and industrial use.
d. Compiling broadband adoption rate data by neighborhood as well as a variety of socio390 11 Technical Project Approach
economic indicators by neighborhood to identify disparities. e. Assessing utilization of the federal Affordable Connectivity Program (ACP) and other programming, including provider low-cost programs, that effectively reduces the cost of internet subscriptions for qualified users, and access to needed devices. As these are new programs, and the rulemaking is evolving with respect to program implementation at the state and federal levels, Valley Vision will ensure the most timely data is provided along with strategies to optimize implementation.
2) Assess existing broadband assets in West Sacramento.

TIMELINE: Months 2-3
Activities will include:
a. Inventory of all internet service providers, including a description of their available plans for business and residential.
b. Inventory of identifiable public and other assets to support broadband, including fiber routes, conduit, antennas, wireless towers, poles, and other infrastructure, along with rights of way.
c. Consultation with anchor institutions to identify opportunities for using their broadband assets as nodes to serve others in the community.
d. Identification of aging or outdated mediums (e.g., copper wires) v. future-proof mediums (e.g., fiber).
e. Identification of any known statewide or regional infrastructure planned for the region. f. Identification of potential community partners that are currently or that could support broadband availability or adoption through programming or advocacy, including their capacity or lack thereof.
3) Assess local policies that support (or present barriers to) internet access and adoption.

TIMELINE: Month 3
Activities will include:
a. Review of permitting processes, policies, and ordinances; strategic or other implementation plans; etc.
b. Identification of possible best practices that could be adopted. 4) Gather stakeholder input to understand perceptions on perceived quality and reliability of the Internet, as well as wants and needs for internet in West Sacramento.

TIMELINE: Months 3-4
Activities will include:
a. Interviews and surveys with stakeholders, including residents, businesses, schools, public safety providers, City departments, other anchor institutions, and other service providers, as well as internet service providers to understand their respective plans and challenges they encounter in expanding broadband access and availability. b. Assessment of awareness of low-cost offers, digital literacy capabilities, and customer satisfaction.
391
12 Technical Project Approach
5) Determine priority neighborhoods/corridors to target for access and/or adoption-related activities.

TIMELINE: Months 4-5
Activities will include:
a. Developing criteria for designating priority areas and examining geographies through the criteria.
b. Consulting with City staff and other stakeholders on priority determinations. 6) Identify and compile successful practices being utilized locally and throughout the nation.

TIMELINE: Month 5-6
Activities will include:
392
a. Identification of strategies, policies, procedures, programs, governance structures, and other methods that municipalities have implemented or leveraged to foster improved internet access and adoption. b.

1 Proposer Mandatory Qualifications and Experience
PROPOSER’S MANDATORY QUALIFICATIONS AND EXPERIENCE
Valley Vision has more than ten years of experience planning for and expanding broadband availability and access for residents and businesses throughout the greater Sacramento region. Valley Vision has successfully led strategic planning and action planning across a variety of other topic areas in the Sacramento Region for 26 years. The following section details our qualifications and experience.

A) ORGANIZATION
Founded in 1994, Valley Vision is a non-profit civic leadership organization that brings communities together to tackle the greater Sacramento region's biggest challenges and ensure a more livable future for all residents. By creating common ground built on facts through trusted research and meaningful coalition-building, Valley Vision brings "community-inspired solutions" to the frontlines of a regional agenda for prosperity, equity, and sustainability. Through research and action, Valley Vision facilitates collaboration on bold, long-term solutions that improve people's lives.

The subject matter of our work continually evolves to address the emerging or entrenched challenges that are facing the greater Sacramento region. Our work history has addressed land use through partnering with the Sacramento Area Council of Governments on the Blueprint Project, as well as the Rural-Urban Connections Strategy; community health improvement through coordination of the region’s hospital systems’ respective Community Health Needs Assessments and through management of the Sacramento Region’s Cleaner Air Partnership; workforce development through coordination of regional workforce advisory processes on behalf of the local community colleges and workforce investment boards; and economic development, which is most notably marked by Valley Vision’s coordination of the Sacramento Region Prosperity Strategy, which serves as the region’s designated Comprehensive Economic Development Strategy by the US Economic Development Administration.

Valley Vision has an extensive history of being at the center of strategic efforts to improve broadband access and digital inclusion efforts in the Greater Sacramento Region. Valley Vision has been the manager of the Connected Capital Area Broadband Consortium (CCABC) (funded by the California Public Utilities Commission-California Advanced Services Fund) since 2012 and works collaboratively with broadband stakeholders across a four-county region (Sacramento, Sutter, Yolo, and Yuba). The Consortium partners include local government, ISPs, business chambers, utilities, the Sacramento Area Council of Governments (SACOG), community-based organizations, nonprofits, community anchor institutions, and farm bureaus, among organizations and agencies. Valley Vision has broad partnerships with business and ag-related organizations to support and maximize efforts in expanding broadband infrastructure and service to unserved urban and rural areas, along with state and federal agencies, foundations, and statewide leadership organizations.

In addition, Valley Vision’s role as the convener and organizer of the Capital Region Coalition for Digital Inclusion’s (CRCDI) (State and local agencies, private companies, universities, colleges, libraries, business chambers, and nonprofits) efforts over the past 2.5 years provides us with the partnerships and knowledge to reach additional business organizations and community agencies across the region. CRCDI was formerly the Sacramento Coalition for Digital Inclusion (SCDI). In addition to these partnership efforts, Valley Vision also manages the region’s four workforce development boards and the eight 400
2 Proposer Mandatory Qualifications and Experience
community colleges for demand-driven workforce strategies supporting key industry clusters, including a focus on the acquisition of digital literacy and skills.

Valley Vision team members are recognized statewide leaders in broadband policy, planning, and adoption efforts. This includes serving as a co-lead for the California Economic Summit’s statewide Broadband for All Work Group, as a member of the Strategic Broadband Corridors Project Work Group for the California Broadband Council, as a co-lead for the Sacramento Metro Chamber’s Broadband/Economic Development Committees, and as a member of the statewide Digital Equity Coalition. They have prepared numerous resource guides on best practices for accelerating Broadband Infrastructure investment and adoption, and conducted numerous regional and statewide capacitybuilding webinars collaborating with partners such as CA Forward, CALED, CSAC, Chico State University, the Sacramento Metro Chamber of Commerce, and the California Emerging Technology Fund. They have prepared broadband strategies and other analyses for the region and served as a technical resource for local and state government agencies, anchor institutions, and community partners. As this brief review of prior and current experience demonstrates, we are a highly qualified organization, positioned to advance the region’s priorities in expanding broadband access to improve economic development in the region. We have a proven track record to deliver on the commitments of this proposal.

Valley Vision has contracted with a diverse array of clients, including Federal partners (such as the US Economic Development Administration (EDA) and US Dept. of Agriculture (USDA); State partners (such as the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) and California Air Resources Board; and local government partners (such as Sacramento Employment and Training Agency and the City of Sacramento); private/non-profit sector partners (such as Golden 1 Credit Union and Kaiser Permanente); education (Los Rios Community College District); and foundations (such as Sierra Health Foundation and Sacramento Region Community Foundation). With a $2.5 million annual budget, Valley Vision is currently leading 31 projects under active contracts.

Valley Vision currently has 14 staff members. Valley Vision’s office is located at 3400 3rd Avenue, Sacramento, CA 95817.

B) EXPERIENCE
As described in the prior section. Valley Vision has been leading broadband access and adoption efforts in the Sacramento region since 2012. Our experiences over this time have provided the essential skills that will be called upon in conducting West Sacramento’s Broadband Opportunities Assessment and Action Plan. Specifically, Valley Vision has:
• Conducted assessments and developed broadband plans for other jurisdictions and entities in the region. Examples include the Yuba County Broadband Master Plan, the Sutter Health Broadband Research Study for Communities of Concern in Placer and Sacramento Counties, the Preferred Scenario for Unserved Households in the Connected Capital Area Broadband Consortium Region, Connecting the Delta: Broadband Action Plan prepared for the Delta Protection Commission, and the Recommended Strategic Broadband Corridors report (on behalf of the state’s PUC-funded regional broadband consortia in partnership with Caltrans).

Each of these efforts required Valley Vision to assess current conditions and identify gaps in broadband availability and access, customized by user type (resident, business, institution); gather details on existing assets that are being used or could be used for broadband 401
3 Proposer Mandatory Qualifications and Experience
deployment; examine appropriate technology options for the circumstances of specific geographic areas; research public policies that benefit (or that may deter) broadband deployment and access; track funding opportunities; identify opportunities to leverage projects for multiple benefits; and identify innovative solutions. Through these efforts, we have established a strong understanding of data sources, partner organizations, and other assets that are needed to ensure a full understanding of barriers, needs, and opportunities for improving broadband deployment and access. The Strategic Broadband Corridors report provided input to the CPUC for the identification of regional priorities for the new state Middle-Mile open access network.
• Created resource guides to support local governments with broadband deployment and adoption efforts. In 2021, Valley Vision and the California Emerging Technology Fund released “Getting Connected – A Broadband Deployment and Adoption Resource Guide for Local and Regional Governments.” The guide identifies various roles that local governments can play in improving broadband within their community, and shares numerous models, best practices, and case studies that have resulted in the successful implementation of broadband plans and projects. This project included five capacity-building workshops with state and regional partners and the opportunity to work with the jurisdictions and providers to develop innovative approaches to deployment. Additionally, Valley Vision and the Capital Region Coalition for Digital Inclusion partnered to launch the Digital Inclusion Portal, which provides users with an online guide that refers to resources for digital devices, tools, and training in order to provide all residents with the basic knowledge and resources to be able to compete in the modern digital world. Preparation of the portal required an extensive compilation of local resource providers and opportunities.
• Explored and championed alternative methods for making broadband more available for underserved communities. Barriers to broadband deployment exist in both urban and rural settings. Valley Vision has studied and sought to bring solutions to both. The Yolo County AgTech Pilot is an example of a study coordinated by Valley Vision to understand broadband access, capacity, and gaps for agricultural operations and rural communities in Yolo County, and to identify cutting-edge broadband solutions that would support precision agriculture technologies where existing broadband is limited. This study worked closely with farmers, growers, and agtech providers to explore possibilities, knowing that improved internet access could lead to increased productivity and decreased use of natural resources required for agricultural operations. Valley Vision also conducted a Digital Access and Adoption assessment for the Golden Sierra Job Training Agency in 2021, which serves both suburban and rural areas.

In the urban areas, under the aegis of the Digital Inclusion Coalition, Valley Vision prepared analyses of high-priority underserved communities throughout Sacramento County, for which broadband adoption strategies have been developed. Building on a five year “School to Home” project to bring access to devices and capacity to students and families at Sacramento City Unified School District’s lowest-achieving school, Valley Vision worked closely with a group of partners including Sacramento Housing and Redevelopment Agency, the city of Sacramento, Intel, Amazon Web Services and other providers to initiate a pilot within the public housing complex to deploy a wireless broadband solution that was capable of delivering high speed (5G) internet to all the residents at low cost for sustained service. Providing proof of concept of technologies such as this could lead to great and rapid expansion of access in geographies that have not been targeted by incumbent providers within urban areas. 402

Measure E Analysis
Project Description
This requested expenditure is to facilitate a contract with Valley Vision to update the City’s Broadband Infrastructure Assessment and Action Plan and provide consulting services to help the City improve broadband accessibility and affordability for residents and businesses.

Policy Context
This project effectuates the Smart City component of Measure E, which includes specific of “enhancing Internet access and the use of smart technologies.”
Supplementary Funds
The proposed use of Measure E would be unleveraged by state or federal funds; however, Valley Vision’s work product will help position the City to be more competitive for state and federal grants available for local broadband programs.

Staff Costs
The proposed Measure E expenditure will not be used to cover any City staff costs. The funds will be used to pay for the services of Valley Vision.

Desired Outcomes
This proposed expenditure is designed to facilitate the creation of an updated broadband assessment and action plan, and to provide the City with a technical resource to aid in the implementation of the recommended actions in that document.

Theory of Change
The actions recommended in this staff report are based on the premise that a detailed analysis of the broadband challenges facing West Sacramento residents and businesses is necessary in order to make the City competitive for available state and federal funding, and that the City does not have the internal technical capacity or resources to produce such an analysis on its own.

Key underlying assumptions include:

1. Valley Vision has the expertise necessary to undertake the proposed study.

2. Valley Vision’s work products and consulting services would be materially helpful in securing state and federal grants to improve broadband access and affordability in West Sacramento.

3. Additional funding and City intervention, if properly focused, has the potential to deliver meaningful improvements in broadband access and affordability to West Sacramento residents.

Staff believes that each of the above assumptions are well-supported. Based on the qualifications provided in Attachment 2 to the staff report, staff has concluded that Valley Vision unquestionably has the expertise necessary to implement the proposed scope of work at a high level of quality. Both staff’s prior experience with grant programs generally, and its review of available broadband grant programs 409
make it clear that a detailed understanding of a community’s challenges is the foundation of any grant application designed to address those challenges. Finally, the amount of broadband funding that is currently available is unquestionably of a scale that could allow the City to make meaningful improvements for residents were the City to receive one or more awards.

Project Budget
The total appropriation being requested from Measure E is $85,000.

Performance Metrics
The effectiveness of the above-referenced work can be measured in the following ways:

1. Completion of the subject broadband analysis on time and within its budget

2. The City’s success in documenting the need for broadband improvements in West Sacramento

3. The City’s subsequent success in securing grants for broadband improvements 410
