PLANNING COMMISSION STAFF REPORT
Meeting: April 28, 2026
Subject
Review of the Fiscal Year 2026 - 2027 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 2026 - 2027 Capital
Improvement Program proposal is consistent with the City's General Plan.
Discussion
Background:
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 65401 and Chapter 2.32.070.C of the Cupertino
Municipal Code, the Planning Commission is authorized to review new CIP proposals
for consistency with the City’s General Plan (Attachment 2).
CA Government Code Section 65401 states “each county or city officer… shall submit
to the official agency, ……, a list of the proposed public works recommended for
planning, initiation or construction during the ensuing fiscal year. ….. Such
coordinated program shall be submitted to the county or city planning agency for
review and report to said official agency as to conformity with the adopted general
plan or part thereof.”

Attachment 3. In FY 2026 - 2027, the following five new projects have been proposed:
Project name Project Description
BBF Golf Course Pro Shop

consistent surfaces.
SCB/SR 85 NB ramp
Intersection improvements

See Attachment 4 for the General Plan consistency matrix for the proposed projects.
In addition, the projects align with the following Guiding Principles in the City’s
General Plan:
2. IMPROVE PUBLIC HEALTH AND SAFETY
Promote public health by increasing community-wide access to healthy foods;
ensure an adequate amount of safe, well-designed parks, open space, trails, and
pathways; and improve safety by ensuring all areas of the community are protected
from natural hazards and fully served by disaster planning and neighborhood
watch programs, police, fire, paramedic, and health services.
• Blesch Property Improvements
• Memorial Park Pickleball Sound Attenuation
• BBF Golf Course Pro Shop Renovation
• Sports Center Courts Resurfacing
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.
• SCB/SR 85 NB ramp Intersection improvements
11
PC 04-28-2026
11 of 42
10. PRESERVE THE ENVIRONMENT
Preserve Cupertino’s environment by enhancing or restoring creeks and hillsides
to their natural state, limiting urban uses to existing urbanized areas, encouraging
environmental protection, promoting sustainable design concepts, improving
sustainable municipal operations, adapting to climate change, conserving energy
resources, and minimizing waste.
• Blesch Property Improvements
11. 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.
• BBF Golf Course Pro Shop Renovation
• Sports Center Courts Resurfacing
Other ongoing projects in the FY 2026 - 2027 CIP, have been reviewed by the Planning
Commission in prior years and found to be in conformance with the General Plan.
State law does not require conformance findings to be made for ongoing projects in
the CIP. The FY25-26 Mid-year CIP status report is included here as Attachment 5 for
reference only.
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).) Therefore, it is recommended that
the Planning Commission find that this action is exempt from CEQA.
Next Steps
The Planning Commission’s determination will be considered by the City Council as
part of the Council’s review of the City’s Annual Budget, which includes the CIP
budget. The City’s Annual Budget is anticipated to be presented to City Council at
meetings in May and June 2026.

A RESOLUTION OF THE PLANNING COMMISSION
OF THE CITY OF CUPERTINO FINDING THE
PROPOSED CAPITAL IMPROVEMENT PROGRAM
FOR FISCAL YEAR 2026 – 2027 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 current CIP recommendations have been updated for the Fiscal Year (FY)
2026-2027 time period for City Council review and consideration; and
WHEREAS, California Government Code Section 65401 requires that City’s
Planning Commission make a determination that the annual CIP is in conformance with
the City’s General Plan; and
WHEREAS, on April 28, 2026, the Planning Commission held a duly noticed
public hearing on the subject application, and considered evidence presented by the City,
city staff, and other interested parties.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the Planning Commission of the City
of Cupertino does hereby finds, determines, and resolves as follows:
Section 1: The Planning Commission has duly considered the full record before it,
including the staff report and presentation, facts, exhibits, public testimony and
other evidence and materials submitted or provided to the Commission.
Furthermore, the recitals set forth above are found to be true and correct and are
incorporated herein by reference.
Section 2: The Planning Commission hereby exercises its independent judgment
and determines that the action is exempt from CEQA pursuant to CEQA
Guidelines section 15061(b)(3). CEQA Guidelines section 15061(b)(3) states that a
project is exempt from CEQA if “it can be seen with certainty that there is no
possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the
environment.” The action is a determination of consistency with the General Plan
and therefore it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the action
may have a significant effect on the environment.

Page 2
Section 3: The Planning Commission finds in accordance with the Cupertino
Municipal Code (CMC) section 2.32.070 (C) and state law based on the evidence
in the public record that the City’s CIP (FY 2026-2027) conforms to the City’s
General Plan (Community Vision 2015-2040.)
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that this Resolution is not a project under the
requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act, together with related State
CEQA Guidelines (collectively, “CEQA”) because it has no potential for resulting in
physical change in the environment. In the event that this Resolution is found to be a
project under CEQA, it is subject to the CEQA exemption contained in CEQA Guidelines
section 15061(b)(3) because it can be seen with certainty to have no possibility that the
action approved may have a significant effect on the environment. CEQA applies only
to actions which have the potential for causing a significant effect on the environment.
Where it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility that the activity in question
may have a significant effect on the environment, the activity is not subject to CEQA. In
this circumstance, the proposed action “Adopt a Resolution finding that the Fiscal Year
2026 - 2027 Capital Improvement Program proposal is consistent with the City's General
Plan” would have no or only a de minimis effect on the environment because it is an
administrative action. The foregoing determination is made by the City of Cupertino
Planning Commission in its independent judgment.

of Cupertino this 28th day of April 2026, by the following vote:

Project Description
The Blackberry Farm Golf Course Pro Shop serves more than 40,000 golfers annually and is central to the visitor
experience. However, the facility has not been comprehensively renovated in many years and is now outdated,
inefficient, and out of alignment with current accessibility and building standards. This project proposes a full
renovation to improve functionality, safety, and customer service, including a new service counter, replacement of
worn finishes, ADA upgrades, and modernization of the existing electrical system to meet current code requirements.
Project Justification
Renovating the pro shop is necessary to bring the facility up to the City’s ADA, electrical, and safety standards,
improve functionality for staff, and enhance the overall experience for golfers. The proposed upgrades will address
deferred maintenance, reduce operational and safety risks, and ensure the pro shop reflects the level of service and
accessibility expected of a City-owned facility. It is important to note that the pro shop was not included in the 2018
Facility Condition Assessment Report.
Prioritization
Health & Safety 4 The facility is in poor condition and requires electrical upgrades.
The outdated systems will be modernized to meet current code
and operational needs.
Regulatory / Legal Mandate 3 ADA and electrical upgrades are needed.
Asset Condition & Infrastructure
Risk
5 The antiquated pro shop requires significant renovation,
including electrical upgrades. Planned improvements include a
new service counter, replacement of worn flooring and ceiling
materials, and ADA accessibility upgrades.
Climate Resilience & Sustainability 0 N.A.
Strategic Alignment 0 The facilities at the Golf Course, including the Pro Shop, were not
included in the 2018 Facility Condition Assessment Report.
Community Benefit & Equity 4 The Blackberry Farm Golf Course Pro Shop serves over 40,000
golfers annually and is central to the visitor experience, but staff
regularly receive complaints about its deteriorating condition.
Financial Leverage & Cost
Effectiveness
2 Facility improvements will decrease operational time and effort.
Project Readiness 2 Scope schematically defined. RFP/Bid procurement process
required to secure contractor to complete the work.

Project Description
Demolition of the existing residential building to be replaced with minimal grading, natural habitat and modest
pathway[s]. The initial phase will develop preliminary cost estimates for demolition of the existing structure,
conceptual planning, design and engineering of the site, and construction of the improvements.
Project Justification
The Blesch property is an approximately 28,000 square foot parcel, currently developed with a single-family residence.
While the structure has been used for auxiliary City purposes since acquisition, it is not suitable for use as a public
facility. Significant repairs, accessibility improvements and reconfiguration would be required for any public use.
Additionally, the site is located within the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) Flood Zone AE, with
more than half of the property situated within the designated floodway. Being in a FEMA designated floodplain
results in constraints which substantially limit the feasibility of maintaining or constructing vertical structures on the
site and impose additional regulatory requirements, review timelines, and costs for any building construction.
Prioritization
Health & Safety 5 The facility is in poor condition and unsuitable for public use.
Regulatory / Legal Mandate 1 Removing the residential building from the flood plain will bring
the parcel in compliance with FEMA and CMC zoning.
Asset Condition & Infrastructure
Risk
5 Removing the structure will improve maintenance requirements
for the property.
Climate Resilience & Sustainability 5 Decreasing the built environment and increasing the natural
habitat will provide climate resilience and decrease flood liability.
Strategic Alignment 5 The PRSMP notes this site is a “pollinator garden” opportunity.
Community Benefit & Equity 3 The planned improvements will make the site available to the
public.
Financial Leverage & Cost
Effectiveness
1 The Site improvements will decrease operational time and effort.
Project Readiness 0 Scope is under development.

Project Description
Resurface all tennis courts and Sport Court at the Sports Center to maintain a suitable and safe playing environment.
Project Justification
The tennis court surfaces have deteriorated due to extended use and weather exposure and are now beyond their
typical five- to seven-year lifespan (last resurfaced in 2016). Resurfacing will prevent further damage, reduce liability,
and avoid more costly repairs in the future.
Prioritization
Health & Safety 4 While the courts are not currently unsafe, these conditions create
uneven playing surfaces that may pose a tripping hazard if
allowed to worsen. Timely resurfacing will mitigate these
emerging risks and preserve safe, consistent playing conditions
for the community.
Regulatory / Legal Mandate 3 Courts must be maintained to meet safety standards.
Asset Condition & Infrastructure
Risk
5 The tennis courts have not been resurfaced in approximately ten
years and are showing signs of surface fatigue, including cracking
that has continued to develop and expand.
Climate Resilience & Sustainability 0 N.A.
Strategic Alignment 0 Master Plans do not prescribe this work - this is required
maintenance that has an engineering component.
Community Benefit & Equity 4 Staff have observed an increase in user complaints related to
cracking and surface conditions on multiple tennis courts.
Feedback indicates growing concern about playability and surface
consistency, particularly as cracking becomes more noticeable
over time.
Financial Leverage & Cost
Effectiveness
2 Timely resurfacing will assist in keeping resurfacing and
maintenance costs down. As courts continue to degrade (e.g.
worsening/deepening and developing cracks) repair and
resurfacing becomes more expensive.
Project Readiness 2 Scope defined. RFP/Bid procurement process required to secure
contractor to complete the work.

Project Type Design and Construction
Origin of Request Public Works
FY Initiated FY 26-27 (pending)
Project Description
The project includes design, construction, and project management for improvements at the Stevens Creek
Boulevard/northbound SR-85 on-ramp intersection. Improvements include a separated Class IV bike lane, a tightened
right-turn on-ramp, and traffic signal upgrades providing protected movements for vehicles, bicyclists, and
pedestrians. The project will retain a civil engineering consultant to finalize design and obtain necessary Caltrans
approvals.
Project Justification
The existing high-speed on-ramp creates safety risks for bicyclists and pedestrians. Proposed improvements include a
tighter ramp turn, dedicated signal phasing, a separated bike lane, and a protected pedestrian crossing to significantly
improve safety. These improvements were required as part of the Westport development, but Caltrans Permitting
delays prevented their completion, leading the City to collect in-lieu funds to complete the project. The project now
requires final design completion and Caltrans permit approval before proceeding.
Prioritization
Health & Safety 3 The project reduces known safety issues for drivers, bicyclists and
pedestrians.
Regulatory / Legal Mandate 0 This project is not code-required.
Asset Condition & Infrastructure
Risk
2 Improvements to the multimodal crossings at the intersection are
overdue.
Climate Resilience & Sustainability 1 Minor efficiency improvements in equipment.
Strategic Alignment 4 The 2016 Bicycle Transportation Plan identified improvements on
Stevens Creek Boulevard as the highest priority.
Community Benefit & Equity 3 This intersection is heavily trafficked, and improvements will
have a positive impact on all modes of transportation through it.
Financial Leverage & Cost
Effectiveness
5 The project is funded entirely by the Westport development
project’s Developer In-Lieu fees.

Commission Report - Tracy Kosolcharoen - March 24, 2026
● On March 11-13, three Cupertino Planning Commission members
attended the 2026 Planning Commissioners Academy. I thank staff
for making available this excellent opportunity to meet other commissioners
from across the state, learn about the latest housing legislation, and further
our knowledge on topics like CEQA, wildfire risk, and the planning process.
● Some observations/learnings:
○ There are many new state and assembly bills coming down the
pipeline that may significantly impact local control across
planning, permitting, and housing finance. These bills are at an
early stage and may change quite a bit by the time they are signed, but the
city may want to track them in its legislative review committee.
■ Source:https://www.calcities.org/docs/default-source/planning-commissioners-
academy---session-materials/legislative-update18f98ab2-6a98-490e-a10e-b7f89
c07a33d.pdf?sfvrsn=10e0e4f4_1
○ AB130 is a very new state law. Only one commissioner I met had dealt
with an AB130 project.
○ A common theme during the conference was around Planning
Commission’s significantly reduced quasi-judicial authority on
housing projects, due to new state laws. The Planning Commission
still plays an advisory role in General Plans and other legislative decisions,
and a quasi-judicial role for non-residential projects.
■ Practical Guidance for Planning Commissioners session, slides
6-10: Localities face “Greatly reduced timelines for many approvals,
more ministerial approvals (no public input, no CEQA), increased
authority to HCD, and increased penalties for noncompliance.”
■ Source:https://www.calcities.org/docs/default-source/planning-commissioners-
academy---session-materials/california-housing-law-updates-practical-guidance-
for-planning-commissioners.pdf?sfvrsn=b92c0930_1
○ Planning Commissions should build for resiliency – “ability to
adapt, withstand, and recover.” Resiliency in Action session, slide 8
provides some excellent questions we should ask: “Does this decision
increase or reduce our community’s vulnerability to known hazards? How
will this project perform as conditions change? Does this decision
strengthen or undermine our adopted resiliency goals?”

academy---session-materials/resiliency-in-action-what-every-planning-commissi
oner-should-ask---streeter.pdf?sfvrsn=363b62ee_1
● If residents want to provide input around state housing laws, they are
encouraged to contact their legislators.
