Adopt a Resolution finding that the Fiscal Year 2024 - 2025 Capital Improvement Program proposal is consistent with the City's General Plan. CITY OF CUPERTINO Printed on 4/3/2024Page 1 of 1 powered by Legistar™11 PC 4-9-2024 11 of 28 PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT Meeting: April 9, 2024 Subject Review of the Fiscal Year 2024 - 2025 Capital Improvement Program proposal for consistency with the City of Cupertino's General Plan. Recommended Action Adopt a Resolution (Attachment 1) finding that the Fiscal Year 2024 - 2025 Capital Improvement Program proposal is consistent with the City's General Plan. Discussion Each year the City Council adopts a spending plan for capital improvements throughout the City. This process prioritizes significant City expenditures on capital projects that are of importance to the City for a five year horizon – known as the Capital Improvement Program (CIP). The City then appropriates funding for the first year of the CIP as part of the adoption of the budget each fiscal year, as the Capital Improvement Budget. Therefore, while the CIP is a five-year program, funding is not committed for years two through five of the program, since project priorities may change, and project schedules may accelerate or decelerate. The City Council is responsible for setting CIP projects and funding priorities. Pursuant to Government Code section 654011 and Chapter 2.32.070.C of the Cupertino Municipal Code, one role of the Planning Commission is to review the proposed CIP proposals for consistency with the City’s General Plan (Attachment 2). The list and brief descriptions of the Proposed Fiscal Year (FY) 2024-2025 Capital Improvement Program (CIP) new projects are noted in Attachment 3. Using 1 CA Government Code Section 65401: “…a coordinated program of proposed public works for the ensuing fiscal year… shall be submitted to the county or city planning agency for review and report to [the] official agency as to conformity with the adopted general plan or part thereof.” 12 PC 4-9-2024 12 of 28 excerpts of the applicable goals, policies, and strategies of the General Plan, Attachment 4 lists the proposed CIP projects and maps the projects to the pertinent goals, policies, and strategies of the General Plan: Community Vision 2015– 2040. The FY 2024 – 2025 CIP proposal includes the following new projects: 1. Bollinger Road Corridor Design 2. Electric Vehicle Charging Station (EVCS) expansion - Service Center 3. McClellan Road Bridge Replacement 4. Photovoltaic Systems Design & Installation 5. Roadway Safety Improvements - High Friction Pavement & Speed Feedback Signage 6. Vai Avenue Outfall The Cupertino General Plan, Community Vision 2015-2040 begins with Guiding Principles. The CIP projects proposed for FY24-25 can be found consistent with this General Plan by considering the relevant Guiding Principles, as well as considering the relevant Goals, Policies and Strategies as noted above. The list below has excerpts from the Guiding Principles and the projects which are particularly aligned with that Guiding Principle. 3. IMPROVE CONNECTIVITY Create a well-connected and safe system of trails, pedestrian and bicycle paths, sidewalks and streets with traffic calming measures that weave the community together, enhance neighborhood pride and identity, and create acce ss to interesting routes to different destinations.  Bollinger Road Corridor Design 4. ENHANCE MOBILITY Ensure the efficient and safe movement of cars, trucks, transit, pedestrians, bicyclists and disabled persons throughout Cupertino in order to fully accommodate Cupertino's residents, workers, visitors and students of all ages and abilities. Streets, pedestrian paths and bike paths should comprise an integrated system of fully connected and interesting routes to all destinations.  Bollinger Road Corridor Design  McClellan Road Bridge Replacement  Roadway Safety Improvements - High Friction Pavement & Speed Feedback Signage 13 PC 4-9-2024 13 of 28 10.

ENSURE FISCAL SELF-RELIANCE Maintain fiscal self-reliance in order to protect the City's ability to deliver essential, high-quality municipal services and facilities to the community.  Bollinger Road Corridor Design (grant funding)  Photovoltaic Systems Design & Installation  Electric Vehicle Charging Station (EVCS) expansion - Service Center  McClellan Road Bridge Replacement (grant funding)  Roadway Safety Improvements - High Friction Pavement & Speed Feedback Signage (grant funding)  Vai Avenue Outfall Environmental Impact Pursuant to the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) of 1970 (Public Resources Code section 21000 et seq.) (“CEQA,”) together with the State CEQA Guidelines (California Code of Regulations, Title 14, Section 15000 et seq.) (hereinafter, "CEQA Guidelines,") City staff has independently studied the proposed action and has determined that the finding of consistency with the General Plan is exempt from CEQA pursuant to CEQA Guideline section 15061(b)(3) in that “it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the environment.” Furthermore, the finding of consistency with the General Plan is not a “project” in that it has no “potential for resulting in either a direct physical change in the environment, or a reasonably foreseeable indirect change in the environment” (CEQA Guidelines § 15378(a).) Next Steps The Planning Commission’s determination will be considered by the City Council at the May 21st meeting. The CIP budget is one part of the City’s FY 2024-25 budget, which will be proposed at that meeting. _____________________________________ 14 PC 4-9-2024 14 of 28 Prepared by: Susan Michael, Capital Improvement Programs Manager Reviewed by: Gian Martire, Senior Planner Piu Ghosh, Planning Manager Approved for Submission by: Luke Connolly, Assistant Director of Community Development Attachments: 1 - Draft Resolution 2 - FY 2024-25 CIP General Plan Conformance-Relevant Codes 3 - FY 2024-25 CIP new Project Narratives 4 - FY 2024-25 CIP Matrix of GP Consistency 15 PC 4-9-2024 15 of 28 RESOLUTION NO. ________ A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION OF THE CITY OF CUPERTINO FINDING THE PROPOSED CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM FISCAL YEAR 2024 – 2025 CONSISTENT WITH THE CITY OF CUPERTINO GENERAL PLAN ________________________________________________________________________ WHEREAS, the City of Cupertino’s Capital Improvement Program (CIP) guides the funding and scheduling of infrastructure improvement projects over the coming Fiscal Year.

The project studied Bollinger Road from De Anza Boulevard to Lawrence Expressway and identifies improvements that will enhance pedestrian, bicycle, motor-vehicle, and transit operations and safety. Further design and analysis work is required. This includes a topographic and utilities survey of Bollinger Road, preliminary engineering and final design, and traffic analysis. The traffic analysis would determine the potential for the road diet (Alternative A from 2020 Feasibility Study) to increase congestion or divert traffic onto residential streets, and any corresponding mitigation measures to limit that impact. Year 1 work includes preliminary design, feasibility, public outreach, traffic analysis, and topographic surveying. Year 2 will see continuation of Year One activities and initial preliminary engineering. Year 3 will encompass final preliminary engineering and preparation of final plans, specifications, and estimates. T.B.D. External grant funding obtained; 20% matching funds required.

Priority High Origin of Request Public Works Project Description Project Justification Prioritization Projected Schedule Funding Information Operating Budget Impacts The construction of electric vehicle charging station (EVCS) infrastructure at the Service Center is needed for the electrification of the City’s fleet in order to meet the Advanced Clean Fleet (ACF) regulation by California Air Resources Board (CARB). The scope of work follows the Silicon Valley Clean Energy (SVCE) report which identified the charging infrastructure needs to meet ACF regulation. The SVCE systematic assessment of City fleet vehicles had the primary goals of identifying vehicle electrification opportunities, establishing an electrification timeline based on vehicle replacements and the City’s climate action goals and regulatory compliance, and determining the costs and emissions benefits of fleet electrification. The design will be completed by the SVCE Consultant, Optony, Inc in Spring 2024. The City will need to coordinate with PG&E to obtain new electrical service which could take some time. It is currently anticipated that the project will begin construction in the latter half of 2024. As EV infrastructure charging units are implemented, staff or contractor resources will be necessary for installation and maintenance of the units. It is difficult to determine the overall operation budget at this time. The maintenance of a Level 2 charger is estimated at $500 per station annually, and $3000 per station annually for Level 3 EVCS. State regulations require the conversion of City fleet vehicles to electric vehicles, and the EVCS infrastructure is needed to address operations in response to those requirements. Funding for construction of the infrastructure required for operation of the EVCS. Procurement and installation of units, ongoing operation of the facilities, as well as potential upgrades to electrical service, may require additional funding.

The existing bridge was constructed in 1920 and is beyond its design life. It does not meet current requirements for pedestrian access and lacks the width to facilitate bicycle lanes. A reconstructed bridge will enhance pedestrian facilities. Design and Construction will be a multi-year endeavor, requiring environmental permits and Caltrans approvals for both design and construction procurement. $5.85M in grant funding has been secured. Approximately $2.2M in funding is still required. Priority for Safety criteria, following recommendations from inspection reports issued by Caltrans. Propose starting preliminary design in FY 24-25 to support efforts to obtain additional grant funding. Design and construction will require approximately $8M in funding. Staff proposes to utilize the existing grant funding to initiate preliminary engineering design which will provide further opportunities to apply for grants to complete the project funding. Construction of the project will not increase operating budget expenses.

Priority High Origin of Request Public Works Project Description Project Justification Prioritization Projected Schedule Funding Information Operating Budget Impacts In 2023 PG&E announced a rate decrease for electricity generated by photovoltaic (PV) systems (NEM 3), but provided a window to allow grandfathering the more economically-attractive NEM 2.0 rates if interconnection applications were successfully submitted and corresponding systems operational by 2026. NEM 2.0 Interconnection Applications were successfully submitted to PG&E for five Cupertino facilities: Blackberry Farm, Civic Center, Library, Quinlan Community Center & Senior Center, and Sports Center. This project aims to design and build PV systems at all five locations. This project proposes design/build of these systems, pending design development reviews for each facility. The City must connect the proposed photovoltaic systems to the grid by 4/15/2026 in order to take advantage of the NEM 2.0 applications, which provides 75 – 80% greater compensation than NEM 3 rates for electricity that is fed back into the electrical system. The savings in utility costs are projected to be $500,000 annually, and $17.8M over a 30yr lifespan. Conceptual Design development and cost analysis: Summer 2024 Design-Build: Winter 2024 to April 2026 Installation of the PV systems is projected to save $500,000 annually in utility costs. Additional staffing will not be required for ongoing operations and maintenance. Installation of the PV systems is projected to save $500,000 annually. The use of cleaner energy sources is a CAP goal. CA Government code allows for streamlined sourcing of Energy Service Companies (ESCO) for design/build implementation to facilitate these types of projects.

Priority High Origin of Request Public Works Project Description Project Justification Prioritization Projected Schedule Funding Information Operating Budget Impacts Investigate, design, and replace existing failing 36” corrugated metal pipe (CMP) storm drain line with new reinforced concrete pipe (RCP) or high-density polyethylene (HDPE) pipe. In December 2023, the City was made aware of damage to this storm drain outfall. The City operates and maintains the storm drain facilities throughout Cupertino. The storm drain pipe in question has corroded, undermined the creek bank, and needs to be replaced before further erosion and property damage occurs. Summer 2024 - Investigate the extent of the dilapidated facilities. Fall/Winter 2024 – Design replacement facilities and acquire necessary permits. Spring/Summer 2025 – Replace facilities. No ongoing operational impacts are expected. Replacement of the pipe is necessary to ensure proper operation to protect public and private property and safety. The proposed budget will enable design, construction, and environmental permitting of the project. Storm Drain funds (210) will be used if available.
