As part of this effort, the City requested that Kayuga evaluate the feasibility of operating the water system in-house. Kayuga researched the regulatory, equipment, facility, and staff resources needed to operate the water system in- house. In addition, alternative options for operation were evaluated and a business case evaluation considering the financial viability was performed. As the City progresses in the concession agreement renewal process, the City is requesting further assistance from Kayuga to ensure that the best option for the City is chosen. Kayuga’s proposed amendment to our original scope of work is provided below. The amendment will include the following work tasks: •Support City’s Request for Proposal (RFP) process Develop maintenance plan for the City’s water system Provide asset management definitions Provide asset management plan scenario analyses Incorporate offers of the proposals received to the water system operation feasibility study to provide a more well-defined benefit cost analysis Reconcile asset management output and provide a mechanism for the City to continuously track asset health in the future Other tasks requested by the City Schedule The Team will complete the proposed tasks above by the end of June 2022 or as directed by the City.

Regards, Colin Chung, PhD President Kayuga Solution 28241 Crown Valley Parkway #F216 Laguna Niguel, CA 92677 August 2, 2021 Roger Lee Assistant Director of Public Works City of Cupertino 10300 Torre Ave. Cupertino, CA 95014 Subject: Proposal – Water System Operation Feasibility Study Update Dear Roger, Thank you for trusting Kayuga Solution (Kayuga) to update the City of Cupertino’s water system operation feasibility study. We understand the importance of this business decision. We will provide the necessary data and information for the City to make the best business decision. With the City’s 25-year concession agreement with the San Jose Water Company (SJWC) nearing completion, the City needs to make a decision to do one of the following: 1.Renew or find a new operator for the concession agreement 2.Take over the operations, maintenance, and management of the water system 3.Sell the City-owned water system As part of this effort, the City wishes to evaluate the feasibility of operating the water system in -house. In this project, the City wishes understand the resource, facility, equipment, and costs required to take on the water system operation. This will be important data needed for the City to make the best business decision at the end of the concession agreement. Kayu ga understands the City’s objectives. We will research the costs (e.g., direct, indirect, capital), highlight opportunities, and identify other constraints that must be considered to establish an in -house water system operation and maintenance team. In order to best serve the City, Kayuga will work with Hanson Associates (Hanson) who will provide local knowledge. Hanson will research the labor and operation costs. Our Team’s proposed scope of work is provided below. Work Approach / Scope of Service As a feasibility study, our work will involve not only identifying the cost of in-house operation but also the initial capital investment required to ensure reliable distribution of water services. The evaluation will need to take place considering multiple facets: •Costs - Initial setup costs (e.g., regulatory, equipment, labor, legal, operation plan, emergency response plan, recruiting, training, policy development) - On-going costs (e.g., labor, training, emergency response, certification, legal, master plan) - Opportunity costs (e.g., loss of revenue from the lease franchise fee) - CIP/asset replacement costs •Benefits Original Agreement EXHIBITS A & C –Revenue for the City •Culture Change - Integration of water department/division into the City’s existing organization structure - Transition plan discussion on how the new water department/division can be developed and be integrated into the City The Team will identify and describe the actions the City must take to assume responsibility for operating the water system in the leased area and estimate the cost and level of effort of those actions. The Team will consider only levels of effort that will allow the City-operated water system to meet likely permit requirements and AWWA standards. The following elements will be included: 1.One-time Costs to Establish a Water Department/Division The City will incur costs to establish a municipal water distribution system. The City will s et up a qualified work force and will supply them with the equipment and facilities needed to successfully operate the system . The City will simultaneously complete the Water Resources Control Board permit process to obtain an operator’s permit. The Team will identify these pre-operation activities, including the examples below, and the one-time costs associated: •Permit consulting fees •Permit cost •Recruiting and hiring •Computer systems and office equipment •Office design and setup •Maintenance equipment •Spare parts and replacement equipment inventory •Warehouse, shops, laydown yard and employee facilities Permit Application The leased area falls under the jurisdiction of District 17 of the Water Resources Board from whom the City must obtain a permit to assume operational control of its water system. The Team will identify all the steps of the permitting process and provide a full description of the activities and deliverables that the City must provide. Permit cost estimation and duration will also be provided. Personnel Using similar water systems as a comparison, the Team will identify the position types, certification, number required, and estimated salaries for the personnel needed to operate the distribution system; the City’s benefit’s overhead will be applied to salaries to show total personnel costs. Vacations, sick leave, and training allowances will be calculated to ensure adequate staffing for the system throughout the year. The Team will provide an organization chart for the water system and show how it would fit into Cupertino’s current organization and how the positions and salaries would fit into the City’s salary schedule. 2.Recurring Operation Costs The Team will identify recurring operating activities and the estimated annual costs. Contract services The City will incur contract service costs for activities where a contractor has expertise and experience, such as consultants to perform rate studies, Urban Water Management Plans, and similar services. If an election is required, ballot preparation, public notice, and educational materials might also be furnished by a consultant. Customer bill printing, mailing, and payment processing are extremely labor-intensive activities and might best be performed by an outside firm. Contractors also may supply services such as training, uniforms, office equ ipment maintenance, or equipment calibration. Original Agreement EXHIBITS A & C Operating Supplies and Utilities The water system will require a warehouse operation (combined or stand -alone) to maintain the optimum stock of spare parts for normal planned and corrective maintenance and rep lacement equipment for run-to-failure assets or single points of failure. Annual replenishment costs will by estimated by the Team. The initial inventory purchase will be estimated in One-time Costs along with a discussion of options for warehouse, yard, shop space, and employee facilities. If information is made available by San Jose Water Company, the team will use the local utility costs. If not available, utility cost will be estimated based on comparison water system’s experience. The water system will require office supplies, safety equipment, and operating materials. The Team will estimate the annual costs for water operations in this section. Interdepartmental Support The Team will confer with finance, IT, fleet maintenance, engineering, landscape ma intenance, and other City departments that must or may provide services to the water utility in lieu of direct utility employees. The utility will incu r costs from the finance department for budgeting, accounting, and reporting services and from fleet main tenance for vehicle repair and service. The water system may acquire services from engineering or landscape maintenance. The Team will confer with Cupertino finance and other officials to estimate the cost of interfund transfers. 3.Lost Revenue and Opportunity Cost The Team will examine the impact of the potential loss of revenue from the lease franchise fee and utility taxes on City operations. The City’s one-time investment to set up a City-operated distribution system will be identified and a repayment schedule will be developed so that the City can recover its capital and operational outlays to establish the water entity. 4.Water System Finances The Team will capture the personnel, operations, interdepartmental support costs, and recapture of one-time costs and will apply appropriate escalation to represent the expense budget over a 10 - and 20-year horizon. The Team will estimate operating and capital reserves required for proper operation of the water system over the planning horizon. In this analysis, the Team will re-evaluate and incorporate the projected asset replacement/refurbishment needs identified in the asset management plan. The Team will examine the income potential of the distribution system over the same horizon. The revenue examination will begin with historic water consumption, likely drought impacts, and the customer base including any projected increases or decreases to the customer base. The Team will identify current sales to each customer class, and meter charges and any surcharges will be estimated to establish gross water sales. The Team will assess the adequacy the rates to meet operating, capital, and reserve expenses. The Team will present scenarios at various rate levels and recommend a rate level and escalation mechanism that meets the system’s requirements. 5.Alternative Operation Options California cities are permitted to enter into agreements with private companies to operate water systems. There are two generally accepted categories into which these compacts fall. •Contracts usually have a 5-to-10-year contract term. The contractor’s fee is fixed for the term of the contract giving the City stability for financial planning. Beyond the fee, the City is responsible for funding any needed capital improvements which may be carried out by the contractor or others. •Concessions are arrangements whereby a private company operates the system, finances, and implements any required capital improvements for an agreed upon term, and then transfers the system back to the public partner at the end of the specified time. Original Agreement EXHIBITS A & C Another option is a long-term operating contract with a public agency which likely would operate similarly to the “contracts” above. The Team will explore the options above and compare the feasibility of each option. 6.Governmental Structure The Team will evaluate how the City can most efficiently integrate the water system into the City’s governmental and organizational structure. Can the oversight of the water system be assigned to an active commission, or would creation of a new utilities-focused commission best serve the Council’s governance of the water system? The Team will study how the water system can most effectively and economically be integrated into the City’s organizational structure. Can the water system be incorporated into an existing department with a deputy director to manage the function or will a stand -alone department with a director to oversee water operation better serve the rate payers? 7.Transition Period There is not much time until the end of the SJWC service contract. It will be very difficult for the City to be prepared for the operational transition considering the need for a full water distribution entity with staff, equipment, and facilities, as well as the need to meet all the Water Resources Control Board requirements to obtain the necessary permit. Alternative operating arrangements will be required to create a transition period that allows the City to hire qualified personnel, establish suitably equipped office, shop, and warehouse facilities. The transition period also provides time to complete the permit process in orderly fashion. The Team will explore three alternatives for interim system management and report on the feasibility and effectiveness of each of the following options: •Short term system lease renewal with current leasehold •Short term system lease to neighboring public water operator •Operation of the system by a third party (i.e., 5. Alternative Operation Options) Any additional costs related to these options will be detailed. 8.Information Sources The Team will rely on information from San Jose Water Company regarding revenue, staff time, maintenance efforts, spares and replacement parts, and electrical power costs. If such information is not available, the Team will utilize information for operations and capital costs from nearby water agencies of similar composit ion to the leased area. Further information will be obtained from agencies that contract with private entities to operate public utilities and from the companies that provide those services. The Team also will obtain information from the California Water Resources Board, the California Public Utilities Commission, and other regulatory agencies to identify the City’s obligations in a sale of the system or for direct or contractor system operation. The Team will describe the actions required, the probable costs and estimated time to complete for all options available to the City regarding disposition of the leased area water system. Schedule The Team will complete the water system operation feasibility study by the end of September or as directed by the City . The key deliverable dates will be as follows: •Draft report – September 17, 2021 •Final report – October 1, 2021 Original Agreement EXHIBITS A & C Budget The Team’s cost of service for the above tasks is provided below. No on-site meetings are budgeted. All project meetings will be performed using web-based meeting platforms. We have reviewed and accept the City’s professional service agreement. We are able to provide the City’s general and professional liability insurance requirements and accept the City’s Hold Harmless Indemnity requirement.

JENSEN Cupertino City Attorney ATTEST: KIRSTEN SQUARCIA City Clerk Date Christopher D. Jensen Aug 9, 2021 August 2, 2021 Roger Lee Assistant Director of Public Works City of Cupertino 10300 Torre Ave. Cupertino, CA 95014 Subject: Proposal – Water System Operation Feasibility Study Update Dear Roger, Thank you for trusting Kayuga Solution (Kayuga) to update the City of Cupertino’s water system operation feasibility study. We understand the importance of this business decision. We will provide the necessary data and information for the City to make the best business decision. With the City’s 25-year concession agreement with the San Jose Water Company (SJWC) nearing completion, the City needs to make a decision to do one of the following: 1.Renew or find a new operator for the concession agreement 2.Take over the operations, maintenance, and management of the water system 3.Sell the City-owned water system As part of this effort, the City wishes to evaluate the feasibility of operating the water system in -house. In this project, the City wishes understand the resource, facility, equipment, and costs required to take on the water system operation. This will be important data needed for the City to make the best business decision at the end of the concession agreement. Kayu ga understands the City’s objectives. We will research the costs (e.g., direct, indirect, capital), highlight opportunities, and identify other constraints that must be considered to establish an in -house water system operation and maintenance team. In order to best serve the City, Kayuga will work with Hanson Associates (Hanson) who will provide local knowledge. Hanson will research the labor and operation costs. Our Team’s proposed scope of work is provided below. Work Approach / Scope of Service As a feasibility study, our work will involve not only identifying the cost of in-house operation but also the initial capital investment required to ensure reliable distribution of water services. The evaluation will need to take place considering multiple facets: •Costs - Initial setup costs (e.g., regulatory, equipment, labor, legal, operation plan, emergency response plan, recruiting, training, policy development) - On-going costs (e.g., labor, training, emergency response, certification, legal, master plan) - Opportunity costs (e.g., loss of revenue from the lease franchise fee) - CIP/asset replacement costs •Benefits EXHIBITS A & C –Revenue for the City •Culture Change - Integration of water department/division into the City’s existing organization structure - Transition plan discussion on how the new water department/division can be developed and be integrated into the City The Team will identify and describe the actions the City must take to assume responsibility for operating the water system in the leased area and estimate the cost and level of effort of those actions. The Team will consider only levels of effort that will allow the City-operated water system to meet likely permit requirements and AWWA standards. The following elements will be included: 1.One-time Costs to Establish a Water Department/Division The City will incur costs to establish a municipal water distribution system. The City will s et up a qualified work force and will supply them with the equipment and facilities needed to successfully operate the system . The City will simultaneously complete the Water Resources Control Board permit process to obtain an operator’s permit. The Team will identify these pre-operation activities, including the examples below, and the one-time costs associated: •Permit consulting fees •Permit cost •Recruiting and hiring •Computer systems and office equipment •Office design and setup •Maintenance equipment •Spare parts and replacement equipment inventory •Warehouse, shops, laydown yard and employee facilities Permit Application The leased area falls under the jurisdiction of District 17 of the Water Resources Board from whom the City must obtain a permit to assume operational control of its water system. The Team will identify all the steps of the permitting process and provide a full description of the activities and deliverables that the City must provide. Permit cost estimation and duration will also be provided. Personnel Using similar water systems as a comparison, the Team will identify the position types, certification, number required, and estimated salaries for the personnel needed to operate the distribution system; the City’s benefit’s overhead will be applied to salaries to show total personnel costs. Vacations, sick leave, and training allowances will be calculated to ensure adequate staffing for the system throughout the year. The Team will provide an organization chart for the water system and show how it would fit into Cupertino’s current organization and how the positions and salaries would fit into the City’s salary schedule. 2.Recurring Operation Costs The Team will identify recurring operating activities and the estimated annual costs. Contract services The City will incur contract service costs for activities where a contractor has expertise and experience, such as consultants to perform rate studies, Urban Water Management Plans, and similar services. If an election is required, ballot preparation, public notice, and educational materials might also be furnished by a consultant. Customer bill printing, mailing, and payment processing are extremely labor-intensive activities and might best be performed by an outside firm. Contractors also may supply services such as training, uniforms, office equ ipment maintenance, or equipment calibration. EXHIBITS A & C Operating Supplies and Utilities The water system will require a warehouse operation (combined or stand -alone) to maintain the optimum stock of spare parts for normal planned and corrective maintenance and rep lacement equipment for run-to-failure assets or single points of failure. Annual replenishment costs will by estimated by the Team. The initial inventory purchase will be estimated in One-time Costs along with a discussion of options for warehouse, yard, shop space, and employee facilities. If information is made available by San Jose Water Company, the team will use the local utility costs. If not available, utility cost will be estimated based on comparison water system’s experience. The water system will require office supplies, safety equipment, and operating materials. The Team will estimate the annual costs for water operations in this section. Interdepartmental Support The Team will confer with finance, IT, fleet maintenance, engineering, landscape ma intenance, and other City departments that must or may provide services to the water utility in lieu of direct utility employees. The utility will incu r costs from the finance department for budgeting, accounting, and reporting services and from fleet main tenance for vehicle repair and service. The water system may acquire services from engineering or landscape maintenance. The Team will confer with Cupertino finance and other officials to estimate the cost of interfund transfers. 3.Lost Revenue and Opportunity Cost The Team will examine the impact of the potential loss of revenue from the lease franchise fee and utility taxes on City operations. The City’s one-time investment to set up a City-operated distribution system will be identified and a repayment schedule will be developed so that the City can recover its capital and operational outlays to establish the water entity. 4.Water System Finances The Team will capture the personnel, operations, interdepartmental support costs, and recapture of one-time costs and will apply appropriate escalation to represent the expense budget over a 10 - and 20-year horizon. The Team will estimate operating and capital reserves required for proper operation of the water system over the planning horizon. In this analysis, the Team will re-evaluate and incorporate the projected asset replacement/refurbishment needs identified in the asset management plan. The Team will examine the income potential of the distribution system over the same horizon. The revenue examination will begin with historic water consumption, likely drought impacts, and the customer base including any projected increases or decreases to the customer base. The Team will identify current sales to each customer class, and meter charges and any surcharges will be estimated to establish gross water sales. The Team will assess the adequacy the rates to meet operating, capital, and reserve expenses. The Team will present scenarios at various rate levels and recommend a rate level and escalation mechanism that meets the system’s requirements. 5.Alternative Operation Options California cities are permitted to enter into agreements with private companies to operate water systems. There are two generally accepted categories into which these compacts fall. •Contracts usually have a 5-to-10-year contract term. The contractor’s fee is fixed for the term of the contract giving the City stability for financial planning. Beyond the fee, the City is responsible for funding any needed capital improvements which may be carried out by the contractor or others. •Concessions are arrangements whereby a private company operates the system, finances, and implements any required capital improvements for an agreed upon term, and then transfers the system back to the public partner at the end of the specified time. EXHIBITS A & C Another option is a long-term operating contract with a public agency which likely would operate similarly to the “contracts” above. The Team will explore the options above and compare the feasibility of each option. 6.Governmental Structure The Team will evaluate how the City can most efficiently integrate the water system into the City’s governmental and organizational structure. Can the oversight of the water system be assigned to an active commission, or would creation of a new utilities-focused commission best serve the Council’s governance of the water system? The Team will study how the water system can most effectively and economically be integrated into the City’s organizational structure. Can the water system be incorporated into an existing department with a deputy director to manage the function or will a stand -alone department with a director to oversee water operation better serve the rate payers? 7.Transition Period There is not much time until the end of the SJWC service contract. It will be very difficult for the City to be prepared for the operational transition considering the need for a full water distribution entity with staff, equipment, and facilities, as well as the need to meet all the Water Resources Control Board requirements to obtain the necessary permit. Alternative operating arrangements will be required to create a transition period that allows the City to hire qualified personnel, establish suitably equipped office, shop, and warehouse facilities. The transition period also provides time to complete the permit process in orderly fashion. The Team will explore three alternatives for interim system management and report on the feasibility and effectiveness of each of the following options: •Short term system lease renewal with current leasehold •Short term system lease to neighboring public water operator •Operation of the system by a third party (i.e., 5. Alternative Operation Options) Any additional costs related to these options will be detailed. 8.Information Sources The Team will rely on information from San Jose Water Company regarding revenue, staff time, maintenance efforts, spares and replacement parts, and electrical power costs. If such information is not available, the Team will utilize information for operations and capital costs from nearby water agencies of similar composit ion to the leased area. Further information will be obtained from agencies that contract with private entities to operate public utilities and from the companies that provide those services. The Team also will obtain information from the California Water Resources Board, the California Public Utilities Commission, and other regulatory agencies to identify the City’s obligations in a sale of the system or for direct or contractor system operation. The Team will describe the actions required, the probable costs and estimated time to complete for all options available to the City regarding disposition of the leased area water system. Schedule The Team will complete the water system operation feasibility study by the end of September or as directed by the City . The key deliverable dates will be as follows: •Draft report – September 17, 2021 •Final report – October 1, 2021 EXHIBITS A & C Budget The Team’s cost of service for the above tasks is provided below. No on-site meetings are budgeted. All project meetings will be performed using web-based meeting platforms. We have reviewed and accept the City’s professional service agreement.

Transfer Of Rights Of Recovery Against Others To Us If any person or organization to or for whom we make payment under this Coverage Form has rights to recover damages from another, those rights are transferred to us.

Our share is the proportion that the Limit of Insurance of our Coverage Form bears to the total of the limits of all the Coverage Forms and policies covering on the same basis. 6. Premium Audit a. The estimated premium for this Coverage Form is based on the exposures you told us you would have when this policy began. We will compute the final premium due when we determine your actual exposures. The estimated total premium will be credited against the final premium due and the first Named Insured will be billed for the balance, if any. The due date for the final premium or retrospective premium is the date shown as the due date on the bill. If the estimated total premium exceeds the final premium due, the first Named Insured will get a refund. b. If this policy is issued for more than one year, the premium for this Coverage Form will be computed annually based on our rates or premiums in effect at the beginning of each year of the policy.
