3. Silicon Valley (SV) Hopper Services Update (Schroeder)
Matthew Schroeder, Transit and Transportation Planner gave a presentation on the Silicon
Valley(SV) Hopper Services.
Commissioner Ganga wanted to know how much the program costs per year. He understood
the funding for five years was$8.4 million. Mr. Schroeder answered it costs about$1 million per
year to operate the program. Chad Mosley, Director of Public Works clarified that figure was
just City of Cupertino expenditures. Mr. Schroeder remarked that Cupertino ran an incredibly
efficient service when compared to similar Via customers. The cost per passenger was around
2
Bicycle Pedestrian Commission
Regular Meeting
November,15 2023
5
Bicycle Pedestrian Commission
01-24-2024 6 of 38
$18 per person, whereas, in the City of Sacramento, due to the large geographic area and the
way they run their service, operated at roughly$42 per passenger.
Commissioner Ganga wanted to know the demographic data of the users because the idea
when the shuttle started was to service senior citizens and students, to help people have access
to shopping centers, and assist commuters with access to Caltrain stations. Mr. Schroeder did
not have that information on hand but said that information could be pulled.
Commissioner Ganga commented that one of the questions everyone had before the program
began was, with all the other ride services available, was SV Hopper going to be useful. Mr.
Schroeder said it was. Concerning the high school students, given the attendance boundary of
Cupertino High School being primarily in the City of Santa Clara and parts of the City of San
Jose, the service was going to capture more high school students, whereas before, it was mainly
capturing only Monte Vista High School students. Commissioner Ganga observed most riders
went to De Anza College. Mr. Schroeder said yes, but there was a lot of ridership provided to
Monte Vista High School, including after-school activities.
Chair Wolf asked if there were provisions for bicycles, such as bike racks on the vehicles. Mr.
Schroeder said yes, all vehicles were equipped with two bike racks. Chair Wolf asked if SV
Hopper went to San Jose Diridon Station. Mr. Schroeder replied no, the eastern limit at this time
was Valley Fair.
Commissioner Ganga wondered if there were plans to expand this service to neighboring cities,
such as the City of Sunnyvale. Mr. Schroeder replied that when staff was first drafting their
application, they asked the City of Sunnyvale, and they declined participation. The City was
still open to any partnerships with neighboring cities. Mr. Mosley said there were no plans now.
The City of San Jose was interested in operating their own service, on the east side.
Chair Wolf asked about the wait time. Mr. Schroeder said typically eight to ten minutes, which
was comparable to Uber and Lyft however, with the increased size of the service area, the wait
time was going to continue to be monitored. Commissioner Ganga wondered if more vehicles
were going to be added since the service area increased. Mr. Schroeder said yes. Commissioner
Ganga wondered how many passengers fit in each ride and if the driver waited to accumulate
more passengers before they went from point A to point B. Mr. Schroeder said there was a
limited wait time. For example, if a person was not at their stop within three minutes the driver
left. It operated similar to an Uber or Lyft pool; if there were rides requested along a route,
people were picked up along the way. Mr. Mosley wondered what the average single ride was.
Mr. Schroeder said the average was a little over one.
NO ACTION TAKEN
4. December 2023 Bicycle Pedestrian Commission Agenda
Chair Wolf opened the discussion and said normally he and Marlon Aumentado, Assistant
Engineer worked on the agenda, but he wanted other commissioners' input as to what they
wanted to see on the agenda. The Bicycle Pedestrian Commission (Commission) viewed the list
3
Bicycle Pedestrian Commission
Regular Meeting

6
Bicycle Pedestrian Commission
01-24-2024 7 of 38
of future agenda items. Mr. Aumentado clarified that the list contained suggestions, it was up to
the Commission to decide on future agenda items.
Mr. Aumentado mentioned the Commission's objectives and how the Commission discussed
that throughout the year. Commission Ganga explained that typically in the
November/December timeframe, the Commission discussed proposals for the City Work Plan.
February and March were when commissioners provided that input to the City of Cupertino.
Starting early allowed the Commission time to deliberate and finalize their discussion before
their recommendation was due to City staff. The second point of discussion was the Capital
Improvement Program (CIP) recommendation; this was done in the January/February
timeframe.
Chair Wolf asked for a refresher as to how the process worked. Chad Mosley, Director of Public
Works noted that the process has been changing. Staff promised to provide the Commission
with a process update,but the process may be different this year.
Chair Wolf brought up grants and mentioned available money from the Inflation Reduction
Act. He understood $1 billion per year was delegated toward bicycle pedestrian projects and
40% of that went toward plan and demonstration projects. He suggested applying for that to
fund the City of Cupertino Bicycle Pedestrian Plan. Chair Wolf felt there was a need for a grant
writer. Mr. Aumentado explained staff looked into each grant and also how much staff work
time went into applying for each grant. Some grants had a lot of requirements.
Mr. Aumentado planned to give the Commission an update on the grants the Transportation
Division wanted to apply for in the upcoming year. He mentioned applying for the next One
Bay Area Grant 3 (OBAG3) cycle. Commission Ganga wondered if City staff were able to advise
the Commission on various other funding sources and the criteria. Mr. Aumentado said yes. He
wanted to discuss the ones that were realistic to pursue, and he looked for grants that were
$500,000 or more. Mr. Mosley remarked that Federal grants were difficult; he was still working
on a grant that was given to the City three years ago. From that grant, he still had not received
any funds so far and sank a large amount of time into it.
Commissioner Ganga mentioned Vision Zero or the Local Road Safety Program (LRSP). He
wondered if grants were applied for toward those programs. Mr. Aumentado said in some
cases yes. It depended on the grant. Mr. Aumentado said the City needed to have the program
in place for the grant that the City was applying for. He talked about other elements, such as the
background or public outreach.
Chair Wolf listened to two out of the three for the grant seminars for Federal grants and they
were giving tips. The planning and demonstration grants were well over$1 million. Mr. Mosley
said he was looking at that for the Bicycle Pedestrian Plan, but the City's project was around
$200,000 and the Federal grant was for around $1-5 million, so the City was not able to apply.
Chair Wolf recalled a range that started at$100,000.

Commissioner Ganga mentioned the Commission's objectives. It was good to review the
Commission's objectives on an annual basis, to see whether the Commission was progressing
toward their goals. Mr. Aumentado agreed it was a way for stakeholders to see that the
Commission and City staff were working toward those objectives. He recalled that the
Commission wanted those updates about every six months.
Chair Wolf wanted to make sure all commissioners were present for that discussion.
Commissioner Ganga suggested cancelling the regular meeting in December and having a
special meeting the week before if there was not a quorum for the December 20 meeting. Mr.
Aumentado wondered if there were any schedule conflicts anyone wanted to mention. Chair
Wolf did not have any, Commissioner John said no, and Commissioner Ganga did not have any
conflicts. Chair Wolf offered to check with Commissioner Marcy and Zhao, as they were not
present at this meeting.
Mr. Aumentado wanted clarification on what specific items the Commission wanted to bring to
the December meeting. He said the first suggestion was to review progress toward Commission
objectives and grant applications. Commissioner Ganga suggested the City Work Plan and the
CIP Work Plan.
MOTION: Commissioner Ganga moved, seconded by Commissioner John to
recommend that City Staff and the Chair add the following items to the December
Agenda as follows:
1. Progress report on the Bicycle Pedestrian Commission objectives and grant
applications
2. Proposals for City Work Plan and Capital Improvement Program
a. Provide a presentation on the process for the City Work Plan and Capital
Improvement Program
MOTION PASSED: 3-0, Marcy and Zhao Absent
STAFF AND COMMISSION REPORTS
5. Staff Update and Commissioner Activity Report (All)
Marlon Aumentado, Assistant Engineer gave an update on Vision Zero. City of Cupertino staff
and the consultant were finalizing the draft report and planned to bring that to the Bicycle
Pedestrian Commission (Commission) in January 2024. There was also going to be a future
community meeting that went along with that. Regarding the Stevens Creek Corridor Vision
Study, there was going to be a Community Advisory 2 meeting on Thursday, December 7, 5:00
p.m., held at the Santa Central Park Library, located at 2635 Homestead Road, in person, no
Zoom option. Lawson Middle School Bikeway item was going to City Council in February 2024.

Commissioner John wanted an update on the bike racks. Chair Wolf spoke to Seema Lindskog
who was affiliated with the Rotary. The Rotary hired a new attorney to work out the details of
the arrangement with the City of Cupertino. Chad Mosley, Director of Public Works further
updated the Commission and said Ms. Lindskog and the Rotary attorney sent him and the City
of Cupertino Attorney the updated agreement, but they have not had time to review it.
Commissioner Ganga inquired about the bike racks that were part of the City right of way,
those were not contingent on any agreement. Mr. Aumentado wanted to get an update from
David Stillman,Transportation Manager on that.
Commissioner Ganga recalled there were additional guidelines that went with the bike racks,
such as shower facilities. Those facilities were supposed to be added to the guidelines for new
projects. Mr. Aumentado remembered that and promised to look into that.
Commissioner Ganga asked if Vision Zero was going to come up in January 2024. Mr.
Aumentado said yes. Commissioner Ganga asked if there was going to be a Vision Zero
Stakeholder meeting. Mr. Aumentado knew about the Vision Zero Community meeting but
promised to look into the Vision Zero Stakeholder meeting.
Chair Wolf gave an update on the Mayor's meeting.

Meeting:January 24, 2024
Subject
City Council Work Program and Capital Improvement Program(CIP) projects for 2024.
Recommended Action
Review the City Council Work Program and Capital Improvement Program projects and
make recommendations for 2024.
Reasons for Recommendation
On April 4,2023, the City Council approved the Fiscal Year (FY)2023-2025 City of
Cupertino Work Program (CWP),which included a total of 24 projects. Due to budget
constraints, the City Council approved funding for 15 of the 24 projects for FY 2023-2024,
while the remaining nine were placed on hold.Attachment A includes details on the
adopted 24 projects.
The City Council will be reevaluating all CWP items in early Spring 2024. Staff is
requesting that all commissions review existing work program items and propose up to
three items for the Council to consider. These items can be from the nine items that are
currently on hold, listed in Attachment A. They can also be from the other items that
were not selected during the prioritization process, listed in Attachment B. Commissions
can also vote to propose new items as long as they fit the following criteria:
• Timelines are finite in nature,with an expectation of completion within the next
one to two fiscal years.
• Items are not duplicated in other efforts/programs like CIP projects, General
Plan, Climate Action Plan, etc.
• Items are not part of general City operations.
• Items fit into at least one of the five Council approved Goals (Public
Engagement and Transparency,Transportation, Housing, Sustainability&
Fiscal Strategy, Quality of Life).
• Items fit within the commission's scope outlined in the Cupertino Municipal
Code.
All CWP proposals must be submitted using Attachment C. These proposals will be
consolidated and submitted for Council consideration in early spring.
27
Bicycle Pedestrian Commission
01-24-2024 28 of 38
For reference, the CWP is the list of projects and/or initiatives that reflect the residents
and City Council's stated priorities and policies. The CWP provides the opportunity to
enact advanced priorities with funding into action. Some examples have been: Senior
Services,Housing topics,Bike/Ped/Traffic Safety,etc.
The CIP projects arise out of the need to construct, maintain, and improve the City's
infrastructure, facilities, and property.While CIP projects may reflect resident and
Council priorities,these projects undergo a separate evaluation process and are
completed through different processes than most CWP projects. CIP projects should
not be included in the list of CWP recommendations.
Sustainability Impact
No impact.
Fiscal Impact
Commissioners should keep the City's budget in mind when proposing new items for
Council consideration.
