San Bruno City Council Meeting January 28, 2020
Whole Meeting

C
C
C
These
people
agreed
with
me
several
years
ago,
I
brought
to
this
body
in
this
room,
and
our
mayor,
Rico,
Rico
Medina,
was
in
the
room
at
the
time
when
I
brought
to
their
attention
that
wasn't
wise
to
have
fire
trucks
shopping
on
company
time
because
it
emptied
the
firehouse
and
put
the
public
in
jeopardy
that
has
yet
to
be
resolved.
In
my
mind
tonight,
I'm
coming
before
you
to
do
the
same
thing,
I'm
warning
you
of
a
dangerous
situation,
I.
C
C
There
was
a
very
wise
man
who
led
millions
and
millions
of
people
people
he
wore
only
a
loincloth,
his
dark
ball,
headed
millions
of
people
followed
him
and
something
he
said.
I
will
remember.
He
said
that
the
true
measure
of
a
society
is
how
it
treats
its
elders.
I'm
gonna
take
your
blessing
to
heart
mr.
Medina,
that
you'll
do
something
for
the
seniors
of
this
Center
and
you'll
fix
that
situation,
which
is
a
dangerous
one.
Now
I've
told
you
in
several
different
ways
that
it's
dangerous,
please
listen!
Thank
you.
Thank
you.
C
Hello
and
thank
you
for
the
opportunity
to
speak
to
you.
My
friend
here
John
had
spoke
about
the
intersection
here.
What's
spawned,
this
was
basically
on
December,
30th,
John
and
I
were
crossing
the
street
from
the
overflow
parking.
We
had
a
green
arrow.
There
was
a
car,
was
it
a
van
or
an
SUV
I,
don't
know
which
one
it
was
it
doesn't
make
any
difference.
It
could
have
been
anything
we're
walking,
work
absolutely
in
the
crosswalk.
His
car
did
not
stop
John
and
I.
Thank
God.
We
have
the
ability
to
move.
C
There
are
many
people
who
come
across
that
crosswalk,
who
are
in
Walker's,
canes
and
you're
quite
slow.
In
general,
we
evaded
for
the
potential
to
be
killed
in
the
last
six
months.
That's
how
long
I've
been
coming
to
this
club
of
this
Senior
Center
I've
I
am
not
exaggerating.
When
I've
told
I
tell
you
that
I've
almost
been
struck
six
times
and
I'm
careful
I,
just
don't
arbitrarily
walk
out.
C
C
C
D
Hello,
I'm
back
to
address
the
senior
citizen
crossing
I
was
sitting
at
the
lunch
desk
today
selling
lunch
tickets.
When
two
members
came
in
and
the
lady
that
came
in
said
she
was
shaking
like
the
leaf,
and
actually
she
was
her
hands
were
just
like
this
because
she
had
just
witnessed
someone
almost
being
hit.
This
isn't
the
first
time
that
I've
heard
of
people
getting
hit
I
think
it
would
really
be
helpful.
The
most
vulnerable
citizens
in
our
city
are
the
senior
citizens
and
the
children
at
schools.
D
We
have
preparedness
for
the
drivers
that
are
coming
up
to
the
school
school
crossing
school
up
ahead.
We
have
nothing
that
marks.
The
seniors
are
in
that
building
right
there
and
they're
crossing
and
they're
helpless.
Most
of
the
time,
a
lot
of
them
really
do
have
trouble
walking.
They
walk
with
canes,
Walker's
I
haven't
seen
any
wheelchairs
come
across
from
up
above,
but
we
have
the
wheelchairs
coming
all
the
time.
A
Is
there
anybody
here
anybody
else
in
the
audience
that
wanted
to
speak
on
something
that
is
not
on
the
agenda
that
didn't
turn
into
speaker?
Okay,
with
that
we've
had
four
speakers,
and
thank
you
for
for
being
here.
Thank
you
for
bringing
up
the
concerns
again.
I'm
gonna,
ask
staff
the
city,
manager
and
I
think
almost
any
action,
but
I
think
counsel.
Obviously,
it's
been
hearing
is
heard,
and
so
is
this
something
that
goes
to
TS
BC.
Is
this
something
that
staff
can
take
a
look
at
and
report
about.
E
The
city's
traffic
engineer
is
looking
into
it
and
will
be
making
recommendations
depending
on
what
the
recommendations
are.
They
may
need
to
go
through
TSP
C
or
there
may
be
signs
that
can
be
put
up
by
city
staff,
but
we
will
work
with
the
Community
Services
Director
to
update
these
senior
Advisory
Committee
of
the
progress
which
would
be
the
most
appropriate
Channel
I.
C
F
F
The
appropriate
action
is
to
to
follow
through
you're,
the
right
committees
and
subcommittees
and
commissions,
in
this
case,
the
traffic
safety
they
meet
on
Wednesdays
at
7
o'clock,
the
first
Wednesday
of
the
month,
but
our
city
clerk
is
also
a
good
point
person
to
contact
to
say
what's
the
right
process
if
I
want
to
address
a
problem-
and
we
can
get
a
letter
to
the
committee-
and
you
can
attend,
put
it
on
an
agenda
item
and
actually
get
it
addressed
appropriately,
but
I
think
the
residents
for
being
here
tonight
to
address
the
concerns.
Thank.

Thank

to
the
mayor

there
was
an
award

Alamo

San
Francisco
and
the
city
of
San
Bruno
received
an
award
as
the
outstanding
mid

water
plant
of
the

It's
a
distinguished,
a
very
distinguished
honor
to
receive
that
award.
That's
a
plant
that
we
jointly
fund
with
South
City.
E
H
Good
evening,
mayor,
council,
members
and
members
of
the
public,
I'm
Emily,
Roberts
and
I
want
to
thank
you
for
the
opportunity
to
come
before
you
as
a
new
president
as
a
San,
Bruno,
Community,
Foundation,
I'm
honored,
and
excited
to
be
in
this
role
supporting
our
community
this
coming
year.
As
you
know,
you,
the
City
Council,
created
the
foundation
to
administer
the
seventy
million
dollars
in
restitution
funds
received
from
PG&E
as
part
of
the
settlement
from
the
2010
gas
pipeline
explosion.
H
In
addition,
as
you
know,
the
foundation
created
the
community
grants
fund
in
order
to
share
some
of
the
restitution
funds
with
local
organizations,
including
programs
of
the
city
of
San
Bruno
that
form
the
lifeblood
of
the
San
Bruno
community
and
are
doing
important
work
to
improve
the
quality
of
life
here
in
our
city
tonight,
I
present
the
city
with
its
fifth
community
grants.
Since
we
started
the
program
in
2016
for
the
third
year,
the
foundation
is
funding
a
community
grant
the
city
in
support
of
its
sister
city
exchange
program
with
narita
Japan.
H
On
behalf
of
the
Community
Foundation
I'm
pleased
to
present
the
city
of
San
Bruno,
with
a
grant
check
in
the
amount
of
$8,000
to
support
the
San,
Bruno
narita
sister
city
exchange
program,
offering
a
cultural
and
educational
exchange
between
Parkside
intermediate
and
the
nerf
and
Narita
middle
school
students.
This
grant
will
specifically
fund
a
portion
of
the
costs
associated
with
hosting
the
delegation.
That
comes
here
in
March
from
Narita
and
providing
a
need-based
scholarship
to
one
Parkside
student
who
would
otherwise
not
be
able
to
attend
due
to
financial
constraints.
H
The
foundation
is
thrilled
once
again
to
provide
this
financial
support
for
the
global
experience
that
benefits
not
only
our
community
here
in
San
Bruno,
but
also
internationally
right
with
Narita,
and
we
look
forward
to
the
special
celebration
of
the
30th
anniversary
this
year
of
the
sister
city,
friendship.
Thank
you.
A
A
I
Evening,
honorable
mayor
members
of
the
City
Council
objective
tonight
is
to
provide
a
brief
presentation
on
the
update
up
to
Chris
McKenna
slope
stability
project.
So
since
our
last
council
meeting
on
January
14th,
who
made
some
additional
progress
on
the
project,
slider
shows
the
progress
has
been
made
since
January
21st.
So
on
the
21st.
The
contractor
hillside
drilling
mobilized
their
equipment
on
site
the
next
day
after
it
performed
a
clear
and
grubbing
by
removing
brushes
around
the
location
where
the
permanent
wall
is
to
be
installed.
The
contract
are
also
potholed.
I
The
four
inch
gas
mains
that
was
located
underneath
the
sidewalk
on
the
23rd
we
hold
to
determine
the
depth
at
the
2230
kv
electrical
duct
bank,
which
is
along
the
westbound
lanes
of
Sam
Botta
Avenue.
Three
potholes
were
performed
to
determine
the
depth
and
it
was
a
requirement
by
a
PG&E
representatives
and
on
a
Friday
contractor
conduct
conducted
Papo,
determine
the
depth
of
the
24
inch
gas
line,
which
is
on
the
eastbound
lanes
of
San
Bernardino,
and
also
the
requirements
of
PG&E.
I
So,
the
same
day
on
the
24th,
the
contractor
perform
the
work
starting
on
the
hillside
area.
Yesterday
and
today
the
contractor
began
drilling
the
holes
for
the
pure
wall
and
isolation
of
the
steel
beams
commenced
so
staff
from
a
geotechnical
engineering,
firm,
conchos
and
associates
it's
also
on
site
foreman
in
the
gate,
inspections,
as
well
as
the
city
staff,
the
contractor
will
continue
to
work
at
the
hillside
area,
but
we
may
note
in
a
week
and
also
in
the
next
few
weeks.
I
So
currently
there
are
traffic
control
measures
in
place
and
the
times
are
intermittent
stoppage
of
traffic
as
needed
during
construction
activities
and
residents
driving
through
the
area
or
no.
She
used
caution
and
tried
solely
as
there
are
large
equipment
on
site
that
is
being
used
for
the
project.
I
do
have
some
pictures.
I
want
to
show
you.
I
I
This
is
a
drilling
rig,
that's
on
site,
right
now,
it's
it's!
A
very
large
rig.
It's
it's
going
down
at
the
drilling
it's
going
down
about
50
feet
in
distance
I.
Think
this
rig
can
go
down
as
let's
leave
as
a
120
feet
is
what
I
was
told.
So
you
see
some
pictures,
that's
the
truck,
that's
steel
beams
that
would
deliver
on-site.
I
There's
a
picture
you
see
on
the
left,
where
the
crane
is
it's,
you
know,
holding
up
the
other
steel
beam,
as
is
you
know,
going
to
the
it's
being
inserted
to
be
whole
and
on
the
right
hand,
side.
That's
where
you
know
the
concrete
truck
is
pumping
the
slurry
into
the
hole
after
the
beans
are
answering,
so
the
work
again
will
continuing
along
here
until
we
think
about
the
project
will
be
completed
around
early
March.
It's
what
we're
anticipating
right
now,
so
we'll
continue
to
provide
you
with
an
update
as
we
have
them.
F
I
At
all,
I
think
that
we've
been
staff
has
been
observing
the
area
since
the
last
erosion
event,
and
we
haven't
seen
any
more
erosion
in
that
area.
We
what
we
actually
did
was
we
actually
placed
markings
on
the
soil
and
we
go
there
three
four
times
a
day
to
try
to
make
sure
that
you
know
the
markings
are
still
and
you
know
in
its
original
location,
as
we
marked
it,
so
it
hasn't
been
any
additional
erosion.
Okay,.
A
J
A
So
there
have
been
asked
for
no
separate
votes
but
comments
on
all
items.
So
why
don't
we
go
ahead
and
just
take
on
consent
items
a
B
and
C?
Is
there
any
action
from
council
vice
mayor
is
correct,
so
why
don't
we?
Thank
you,
sir.
That's
why
you're
here?
So
why
don't
we
just
start
going
down
the
list?
Item
D
is
adopt
the
resolution.
Accepting
the
downtown
parking
lot
resurfacing
project
as
complete
right.
K
Mike
on,
thank
you.
If
you
haven't
been
downtown
or
a
while,
you
might
not
have
noticed,
and
hopefully
you
have
noticed
that
all
the
parking
lots
on
the
east
side
of
our
downtown
have
been
resurfaced.
And
if
we
could
potentially
have
staff
mentioned
to
highlight
of
those
projects
and
how
the
money
was,
it
was
done
under
budget
and
just
wanted
to
acknowledge
all
the
work
and
encourage
people
to
come
downtown.
I
Parking
lots
were
deteriorating
and
putting
together
project
to
get
that
completed.
The
project
was
budgeted
for
about
$600,000
construction
cost
was
about
one
hundred
thirty-four
thousand
dollars
and
back
in
December
2019.
That's
when
old
Grady
paving
was
contracted
with
the
city
to
perform
the
work,
and
it
did
a
lot
of
base
repairs
installing
you
know,
thermoplastic
parking
spaces
and
pavement
markings
and
parking
bumpers
and
any
additional
eighty-eight
of
compliance
stalls
as
well,
and
then
88
signs
were
installed
as
well.
I
The
project
had
you
know
a
couple
of
change
orders,
but
about
seventy
thousand
dollars
worth,
but
it
was
also
within
was
also
completed
within
on
the
budget.
So
the
total
final
contract
of
width
or
Grady
paving
is
original,
was
four
hundred
thirty
four
thousand
dollars
and
end
to
be
about
three
hundred
sixty
four
thousand
dollars.
So
we
have
a
total
of
approximately
hundred
and
seventy-five
thousand
dollars
remaining
in
our
original
budget.
That
will
be
going
back
to
the
measure,
a
fund,
that's
Jennifer.
J
So
the
question
about
E&F
it
might
be
beneficial
to
just
combine
them.
So
so
the
staff
report
refers
to
the
master
plan,
the
last
master
plan
being
created
in
2012-2013
and
then
the
last
assessment
in
2004.
Just
given
the
cost
that
we
have
do,
we
have
any
metrics
to
show
that
there
were
goals
that
were
met
of
the
2004
or
2012-2013
products,
because
it's
half
a
million
dollars.
I
Thank
you.
The
let's
hear
items
crate
here.
The
2004
item
was
a
little
bit
different
than
the
water
master
plan.
The
2004
item
was
for
the
emergency
response
plan.
The
master
plan
was
actually
completed
in
2012,
and
with
that
you
know,
the
city
has
been
performing
a
lot
of
the
improvements
in
the
water
systems
and
we
have
the
tanks
that
we
build
pipelines
that
are
being
installed,
replaced
pressure
regulating
stations
that
has
been
installed
already.
So
what
the
new
water
masc.
Normally
it's
recommended
to
have
those
updated
every
five
years.
I
It's
going
on
about
eight
years
now,
since
we
last
completed
as
the
audit
master
plan.
So
hence,
this
is
why
you
know
staff
is
bringing
the
I
didn't
commit
to
Council
for
approval,
and
this
master
plan
would
also
look
at
various
different
in
the
new
developments
that
are
happening
in
the
area
and
how
you
know
whether
some
of
those
water
systems
you
know
within
those
areas
needs
to
be
up
sized
and
for
capacity
and
fire
flow
analysis.
So
the
master
plan
will
look
into
what
be
conducting
additional
hydraulic
analysis.
I
J
K
The
reason
why
I
pulled
it
was
to
acknowledge
that
doing
these
plans,
it
costs
money
and
we're
talking
two
hundred
thirty,
nine
thousand,
that
it
it's
recommended
every
five
years
and
we
kind
of
stretch
it
to
eight.
But
people
often
ask
why
our
water
rates
are
so
high.
Why
are
our
sewer
rates
are,
are
so
high
and
we
have
to
pay
for
these
required
plans
and-
and
they
don't
come
cheaply
and
they
and
they're
very
thorough
to
make
sure
that
we
have
a
sustainable
water
supply
and
that
we
can
provide
firefighting
capacity
in
all
areas.
K
L
K
Is
it's
nice
to
know
that
we
have
staff
that
are
looking
through
that
ways
to
reduce
costs,
and
this
is
a
a
reduction
of
eighteen
thousand
dollars
over
five
years
right,
but
by
lumping
together
a
master
contract
for
for
our
printers
and
I
just
wanted
to
acknowledge
it
that
I
do
appreciate
that
and
letting
it
just
go
by
on
consent.
Well,
maybe
nobody
would
read
that,
but
I
wanted
to
acknowledge
the
effort
and
the
ongoing
efforts
that
we're
putting
forward
with
our
staff
in
reducing
costs.
So
thank
you
very
much.
K
F
Just
want
to
echo
those
same
comments,
but
it's
not
just
about
the
cost
savings,
though
it's
about
the
contracts
too,
so
I
think
that's
important,
that
there
are
all
sorts
of
contracts
and
even
different
times,
and
what
a
mess
in
a
chaoticness
so
I
think
having
this
one
contract
with
all
types
of
copiers
and
Printers
I
think
so
kudos
to
staff
for
get
into
this
project
and
actually
redoing
that.
So
thank
you.
It's.
E
E
Not
retiring
I'm,
sorry,
it
has
the
and
it's
taking
the
job
as
the
police
chief
for
the
city
of
San
Mateo
in
his
last
date,
with
the
city
of
San,
Bruno
will
be
February
2nd.
We
have
a
recruitment
for
our
next
police
chief.
That
recruitment
is
live
and
ends
this
Friday
at
5
a.m.
so.
If
there's
anyone
interesting
and
would
like
to
apply,
please
apply,
but
there
will
be
a
lag
time
be
between
when
we
can
go
through
all
those
resumes
and
have
the
selection
process.
E
And
so
we
did
a
bit
of
a
search
and
selected
a
gentleman
by
the
name
of
Eric
woman
who's
here
tonight
who
I
want
to
introduce
and
have
stand
up.
So
mr.
Wolman
is
the
former
police
chief
in
Burlingame
and
has
36
years
of
experience
in
police
service
having
before
being
the
police
chief
in
Burlingame
having
served
approximately
22
years
at
the
city
of
Daly,
City
is
a
very
distinguished
resume.
E
Who
came
out
of
retirement
to
serve
us
and
I
want
to
take
this
moment
to
thank
ed
for
the
care
that
he
has
given
over
these
last
few
weeks
to
make
sure
that
he
is
leaving
a
department
in
the
best
shape
possible
and
the
care
that
he
has
taken
in
sort
of
all
the
planning
that's
needed
to
sort
of
transition
to
a
new
chief
and
an
interim
chief
and
all
all
the
time
that
he
spent
with
mr.
woman
to
bring
him
up
to
speed
here?
E
And
it's
a
it's
an
example
of
your
professionalism
and
how
much
you
deeply
care
about.
Sam,
Brunelle
and
I
know
that
job
in
San
Mateo
that
I
rip
you
about
all
the
time
is
something
that
you
just
couldn't
pass
up
to
serve
the
community
that
you
live
in
and,
as
I've
said,
privately
Eagle
sword.
They
don't
flock,
and
it
is
an
amazing
guy
and
an
amazing,
professional
and
I
just
want
to
thank
you
for
everything.
You've
done
for
the
city
of
San,
Bruno
and
I.
Wish
you
the
best
of
luck.
A
J
I'm
just
my
process
question.
Of
course
I
support
the
waiver
of
the
rental
fees.
This
came
up
a
couple
months
ago.
I
know
that
councilmember
Medina
requested
that
it
be
pulled
when
there
was
a
waiver
of
fees
for
the
block
party
for
Halloween
and
I'm
just
curious
to
know.
If,
since
then,
there
has
been
a
process
in
place
to
determine
who
gets
the
waivers
and
who
doesn't
get
the
waivers?
Okay,
great.
Thank
you.
E
So
at
president,
the
city
of
San
Bruno
does
not
have
a
policy
for
for
granting
fee
waivers
to
outside
groups,
and
so
there
had
been
a
practice
where
these
were
approved
at
staff
level.
We
stopped
that
practice
this
year
and
really
those
decisions
need
to
be
made
at
the
governing
body
level.
So
that
is
why
you
have
seen
these
come
to
the
governing
board,
because,
as
staff,
we
did
not
feel
that
it
was
appropriate
for
us
to
say
which
organizations
do
not
have
to
pay
fees.
That
is
a
responsibility
that
is
vested
in
u.s.
E
decision-makers
and
we
have
also
I
think
talked
about
during
our
budget
process,
potentially
developing
a
process
for
that.
Typically,
those
processes
are
really
not
codified
in
a
number
of
steps.
Really
it's
during
the
budget
process,
where
the
City
Council
makes
a
decision
on
which
groups
they
will
subsidize
and
waive
fees
for
and
those
are
approved
in
the
budget
right
now.
These
are
one-off
events.
I
think
this
is
the
third
one
that
I
know
of
this
year.
Where
fee
is
our
main
brought
to
the
governing
board.
E
J
E
That
the
city
of
San
Bruno
is
sponsoring
or
its
directly
part
of
this
is
a
lion.
The
Lions
Club,
renting
the
gymnasium
to
put
on
an
event
that
they
are
sponsoring.
It's
not
a
co-sponsored
event
like
you
would
think
of
Community
Day,
where
in
our
budget
we
allocate
significant
dollars
and
provide
significant
in
kind
support,
because
we
are
co-sponsoring
that
event.
Thank.
J
K
A
B
A
A
Which
we
can
just
take
one
at
a
time,
I
think
my
my
goal
would
hopefully
be
to
get
a
representative
at
first
and
then
you
know
if
we
can
do
alternates,
because
obviously
I
think
it's
important
if
we
can
try
to
get
through
the
list.
But
is
there
anything
that
folks
up
here
would
like
to
be
a
part
of
first
one
was
Association
of
Bay
Area
governments,
a
bank
that
meets
once
to
twice
a
year.
C
B
Of
the
agencies,
because
they
meet
it's
such
varied
time,
such
as
annually,
twice
annually
quarterly
from
me
speaking
with
their
their
clerks
of
the
boards.
They
don't
have
set
dates
in
time,
so
they
try
to
keep
it
mostly
business
hours
and
those
that
meet
outside
of
business
hours.
The
only
one
that
I
can
think
of
is
the
League
of
California
cities,
Peninsula
Division.
A
So
I
went
into
some
other
cities
just
to
look
at
their
formats
on
how
they
do
it
and
it's
more
of
an
Excel
spread
which
gives
kind
of
the
title
the
rep
the
alternate,
maybe
the
key
staff
person
if
there
is
one
as
well
as
the
office,
how
the
frequency,
as
well
as
for
the
most
part
time
like
some
is,
you
know,
10
to
12.
So
we
know
that
and
others
they
vary,
that
location
and/or
time.
But
so
I
have
some
examples
from
a
few
cities
that
I
pulled
off
the
website.
A
J
A
Is
there
anybody
this
does
meet
in
San
Francisco,
and
this
one
is
usually
9:00
a.m.
to
about
2:00
p.m.
I
just
happen
to
know
that,
but
obviously
you
don't
have
to
stay
the
entire
time.
The
meeting
portion
is
probably
about
an
hour
and
a
half,
and
then
they
do
a
lunch,
but
lunch
is
not
required.
Is
there
anybody
interested
Whismur.
K
A
A
I'm
gonna,
you
just
keep
going
down
the
list.
If
that's
okay,
with
all
everybody,
this
is
the
next
is
the
airport
community
roundtable.
We
do
need
a
representative
that
meets
the
first
Wednesday
of
each
month.
It
is
morning
remind
me
it
is
six
times
on
the
even
months
at
7
p.m.
and
the
Millbrae
behind
City
Hall
that
Shakuni
Rowan
is
there.
Anybody
would
like
to
do
that.
A
Next,
let's
go
to
the
Grand
Boulevard
initiative
task
force
which
meets
in
San
Carlos
at
the
district
transportation
district.
It
meets
quarterly.
This
one
fluctuates
it's
not
consistent,
nor
does
it
always
meet
this
one
would
probably
be
a
relatively
low
commitment
as
far
as
hours
most
these
meetings
run
an
hour
and
a
half
to
two
tops
of
any
of
these
meetings.
I.
A
B
A
A
A
A
A
My
thought
is-
is
that
we,
those
are
important
topics
that
really
face
us
and
I.
Think
as
a
collective
I
think,
a
study
session
with
all
five
of
us
together
simultaneously
rather
than
trying
to
get
two
of
us
together
with
staff,
then
bring
back
and
then
report.
The
same
information
out
to
the
five
of
us
is
hopefully
a
way
to
expedite
it
and
keep
us
all
on
the
same
page
with
some
important
topics.
Any
is
that
okay?
E
Will
open
this
up
good
afternoon
good
evening,
honorable
mayor
and
members
of
the
City
Council,
my
name
is
Javon
Grogan
and
I'm.
The
city
manager
I'm
here
today
with
Keith
Demartini,
our
finance
director
and
together.
It
is
our
pleasure
to
present
to
you
an
update
of
our
User
Fee
study,
as
the
council
in
the
public
may
remember.
E
Our
last
comprehensive
user
fee
study
was
completed
over
ten
years
ago
and
actually
2005
2006
six,
and
so
the
council
will
know
that
this
effort
is
long
overdue
and
it
was
one
of
the
principal
things
on
staffs
work
plan
and
we
have
been
doing
a
lot
of
work
at
that
and
so
tonight
you'll
receive
an
update.
Next.
Next
slide,
so
our
objective
for
tonight's
presentation
is:
we
want
to
give
you
an
overview
of
the
user
fee
study
and
the
methodology
that
we've
been
using.
E
E
E
We
want
it
to
spend
some
time
tonight,
giving
you
a
high-level
overview
and
so
our
agenda
for
today
there
are
really
four
components,
but
we
will
begin
with
the
objective:
will
review
the
scope,
we'll
talk
about
some
constitutional
restrictions
and
what
restrictions
we
have
by
the
California
State
Constitution,
when
we
set
our
fees,
the
methodology
and
then
we'll
talk
about
the
composition
of
the
fee.
Next,
we'll
talk
about
again
the
policy
considerations
and
benchmarking
and
then
next
steps.
E
So
I
also
want
to
say
that
this
effort
is
a
part
of
our
larger,
comprehensive
fiscal
sustainability
project,
and
so,
as
you
know,
we
embarked
on
our
fiscal
sustainability
project
in
the
late
portion
of
2018
and
it's
really
a
24-month
project.
But
the
goal
of
that
project
is
to
develop
a
comprehensive
understanding
of
the
city's
fiscal
pressures
and
constraints
on
the
general
fund,
both
today
and
into
the
foreseeable
future,
and
that
there
are
really
three
distinct
goals
of
the
project.
E
Maybe
two
more
study
sessions
with
you
over
the
next
few
months
to
really
have
a
deep
dive
on
our
fees
and
then
end
really
close
to
budget
time
with
new
fees
that
will
take
effect
for
our
next
budget
cycle.
And
so
this
roadmap
will
look
familiar.
It's
that
24
month,
fiscal
or
comprehensive
fiscal
sustainability,
road
project-
and
we
are
right
on
track.
It's
January
2020-
and
this
is
one
of
our
quick
wins
short
term
strategies.
It's
in
the
quick
win
short
term
category,
because
you
as
the
City
Council,
have
the
ability
to
effectuate
it.
E
The
decision
rests
with
you
five
and
they
can
be
implemented.
Sometimes
there's
a
30
or
60
day
waiting
period,
but
you
do
have
the
ability
to
make
this
decision,
and
it
is,
will
have
an
immediate
impact
on
our
cost
recovery
for
the
various
services.
So
I'll
now
turn
it
over
to
Keith.
That
will
our
finance
director
and
he
will
talk
about
a
little
bit
more
about
funding
of
the
city
services
and
go
through
the
bulk
of
our
presentation.
N
I
wanted
to
first
provide
just
a
really
brief
overview
of
how
city
services
are
funded
in
general
staff
and
multiple
city
departments
provide
a
variety
of
services
to
the
city's
residents,
businesses
and
visitors,
and
while
these
services
provided
by
local
government
are
beneficial
to
constituents,
some
services
can
be
categorized
as
beneficial
to
the
city
as
a
whole,
while
others
primarily
provide
a
direct
benefit
to
the
specific
group
or
individual.
Using
that
service.
N
For
example,
a
planner
in
the
Community
and
Economic
Development
Department
might
only
be
performing
a
plan
check
review
that
is
primarily
only
benefiting
the
developer
or
a
homeowner,
and
not
the
community
at
large,
while
the
maintenance
of
a
city
park,
for
example,
has
citywide
benefits
in
general.
Services
that
provide
a
benefit
to
the
city
as
a
whole
are
funded
through
tax
revenues
listed
above,
while
user
fees
pay
for
the
services
that
provide
a
direct
benefit
to
a
specific
group
or
an
individual.
N
This
user
fee
study
has
confirmed
that
a
majority
of
the
city's
user
fees
are
currently
lower
than
the
cost
of
providing
those
services.
This
has
impacted
a
number
of
programs
over
the
years
and
the
City
Council
Macon
may
consider
maintaining
the
status
quo
of
these
low
fees
or
increasing
these
fees
to
a
more
cost
recoverable
level
or
subsidizing
fees.
N
N
So
let
me
start
with
what
are
our
constitutional
restrictions
when
it
comes
to
the
approval
or
changes
of
user
fees,
they're
really
governed
by
propositions,
202,
18
and
26,
and
the
state
constitution,
which
limits
the
city's
ability
of
setting
the
fees.
The
law
limits,
the
fees
to
be
the
reasonable
cost
of
providing
the
service
or
the
benefit.
N
If
the
fee
is
more
than
the
cost,
it
actually
becomes
a
tax
and
requires
approval
of
the
electorate,
which
is
why
these
user
fee
studies
are
so
crucial
to
ensure
that
our
fees
are
maintained
over
time
and
they're
set
appropriately.
The
standard
user
fees
study
process,
which
is
employed
by
cities
all
throughout
the
country
is
this.
N
So
what
is
a
user
fee?
I
just
want
to
clearly
define
that
before
moving
forward
a
user
fee
funds,
a
program
and/or
a
service
that
provides
a
private
benefit
to
an
individual
or
a
group
that
is
requesting
that
with
limited
or
no
benefit
to
the
community
as
a
whole
and
you'll
see
that
state
law
requires
that
the
individual
or
the
group
who
uses
the
service
must
do
so
voluntarily.
So
not
a
tax
and
the
fee
amount
must
relate
to
this
service,
provided
directly
relate
to
the
service
provided.
N
This
slide
here
lists
examples
of
what
are
some
typical
user
fees
that
are
currently
on
our
master
fee
schedule
and
on
many
other
cities
master
fee
schedules.
This
includes
a
variety
of
different
permits
that
might
be
required
to
be
issued
for
any
work
done
in
your
home
or
in
your
business,
such
as
an
electrical
permit
or
a
plumbing
permit.
It
may
also
be
a
picnic
table
rental
or
a
recreation
class
that
you
may
participate
in
a
user
fee
is
not
these
items
listed
on
here.
On
the
right
hand,
side
it's
not
a
development
impact
fee.
N
It
is
not
a
water
or
utility
charge
on
your
monthly
on
your
monthly
bill.
It's
not
your
garbage
bill
either.
It's
also
not
a
tax.
It's
not
your
property
tax
bill
or
a
business
license
tax
that
you
may
have
to
pay,
so
it's
very
specific
to
a
fee
associated
for
a
service
that
you're
requesting
the
city
to
perform.
N
N
So
the
objectives
just
to
reiterate
a
few
here,
the
study
will
develop
a
rational
basis
for
setting
those
fees.
It
will
help
to
understand
what
are
truly.
Are
our
costs
as
a
city
to
perform
those
services
talk
about
subsidy
amounts.
It
will
also
help
us
to
ensure
that
we're
maintaining
consistency
with
local
policy
and
state
law,
and
it
will
ensure
that
we
have
developed
an
updatable
comprehensive
list
of
our
fees.
Citywide.
N
So
the
scope
of
the
study
really
is
pretty
much
every
fee
on
our
master
fee
schedule
every
user
fee
and
it
touches
all
the
departments
on
this
slide
listed
here,
pretty
much
every
department
in
the
city.
It's
also
important
to
note
that
the
scope
of
the
study
does
include
a
benchmark
comparison
of
what
our
San
Bruno's
user
fees
compared
to
what
are
some
of
the
other
user
fee
in
some
other
cities
in
San
Mateo
County.
N
N
How
do
we
come
up
and
calculate
our
productive
billable
hours
and
our
indirect
cost
rates?
Staff
developed,
really
detailed
time
estimates
for
what
it
takes
for
them
to
perform
the
service
required
for
these
fees,
and
then
we
gathered
a
number
of
data
points
of
City
impact,
input
and
feedback
into
various
policies
and
procedures
around
our
fees.
N
This
slide
shows
just
the
high
level
summary
steps
of
the
study.
It
really
starts
with
the
data
analysis
first
and
that
has
already
been
completed.
All
the
data
sources
I
just
mentioned
in
the
prior
slide.
The
second
major
step
was
building
the
various
cost
layers,
so
really
understanding
the
direct
services
associated
with
the
fee
and
then
layering
on
top
of
it.
What
are
the
indirect
costs
associated
with
it
as
well?
N
So,
for
example,
my
position
in
finance
I
support
all
the
city
departments,
and
so
it's
important
that
a
portion
of
my
cost
is
attributed
to
the
direct
person
that
is
also
serving
and
supporting
that
building
permit.
For
example,
we've
done
that
citywide
and
then
finally,
the
third
and
final
phase
is
to
actually
set
the
fees.
The
study
will
define
the
full
cost
of
services,
and
this
item
here
in
red
is
where
the
City
Council
comes
in
and
provides
guidance
to
staff
about
how
to
set
various
cost
recovery
policies.
N
N
This
is
an
example
here
of
a
may,
be
any
any
user
fee
example
where
it
might
require
the
direct
work
of
a
permit
technician,
but
it
also
may
require
some
indirect
support
from
a
utility
billing
clerk
or
the
city
engineer
or
the
Director
of
Public
Works
as
an
example.
So
it
just
shows
you
how
there
are
multiple
people
involved
in
supporting
a
user
fee,
whether
it's
direct
or
indirect,
and
all
of
those
components
have
been
taken
into
consideration.
With
this
study.
N
So
now
that
we've
now
that
we've
discussed
about
the
scope
of
the
user
fee
study
I
do
want
to
make
sure
that
council
is
aware
of
the
various
policy
considerations
that
you
may
consider
in
general.
An
individual
who
receives
a
private
benefit
from
the
services
should
pay
100%
of
the
cost
of
the
city's
staff.
Support
for
that
work.
Sometimes
a
fee
subsidy
may
be
considered
as
a
public
policy
tool.
N
For
example,
a
subsidy
may
be
used
to
encourage
participation
and
it
may
for
various
youth
activities
as
an
example
for
like
swimming
class
or
a
senior
citizen
activity
at
the
Senior
Center,
another
example
of
a
subsidy
may
be
to
ensure
or
encourage
compliance
with
a
law
or
some
other
policy.
An
example
of
that
might
be
a
water
heater.
N
Permit,
there's
a
there's,
an
interest
in
ensuring
that
water
heaters
are
mounted
correctly
and
appropriately
and
that
they're
safe,
and
so
there
may
be
a
policy
consideration
to
keep
of
subsidy
for
a
water
heater
permit
to
achieve
that
policy
goal.
So
those
are
some
examples
of
policy
considerations
that
counsel
may
consider
this
table
on
this
slide
lists
all
the
city
departments
that
were
that
have
been
included
in
the
scope
of
this
effort
and
the
first
column
lists
those
departments
in
the
column
directly
to
the
right
of
it.
N
The
number
of
fees
is
the
number
of
fees
that
are
currently
in
the
master
master
fee
schedule,
the
user
fees
by
Department.
So,
as
you
can
see,
there
are
over
700
user
fees
currently
in
the
master
fee
schedule
and
a
majority
of
them
are
in
the
building
division
in
the
Community
Economic
Development
Department,
the
parks
and
recreation
department
and
then
also
the
fire
department.
The
table
also
lists
the
current
cost
recovery
percent
of
the
program
costs
required
to
serve
the
public
for
all
of
those
services
at
an
aggregate
level
where
the
user
fee
is
charged.
N
As
you
can
see
here,
most
of
our
city
departments
are
currently
below
the
cost
recovery
percent
compared
to
these
cities,
and
our
consultant
has
told
us
that
the
current
cost
recovery
percent
for
the
building
and
the
playing
divisions
they're
depicted
here
with
with
a
red
arrow
that
they
are
actually
the
lowest
that
they've
ever
seen
in
conducting
a
study.
So
we
have,
we
do
have
quite
a
bit
of
work
to
do
to
bring
our
planning
and
our
building
division
fees
up
to
where
they
need
to
be
to
ensure
adequate
cost
recovery.
N
It's
really
important
to
understand
what
the
long-term
impact
is,
with
our
fees
being
so
below
cost
recovery,
and
the
real
true
impact
of
that
is.
It
puts
additional
pressure
to
allocate
funding
from
other
funding
sources,
typically,
our
general
fund
to
basically
cover
the
costs
where
the
fee
does
not
cover
it.
N
It's
also
important
to
note
that
the
current
master
fee
schedule
that
we
have
it
does
not
allow
for
any
annual
cost
escalation
to
keep
the
fees
on
pace
with
inflation
or
other
normal
cost
increases
that
occur
annually
throughout
our
budget
process,
such
as
fringe
benefits
or
other
cost-of-living
changes.
Many
cities
have
included
an
automatic
inflationary
adjustment
on
their
fees
listed
the
master
fee
schedule
so
that
those
fees
can
keep
pace
with
very
typical
cost
increases.
N
N
So
the
consultant
report
will
also
include
a
series
of
recommendations
for
the
City
Council
to
consider
the
port.
The
report
will
include
a
fee
for
full
cost
recovery,
as
well
as
staffs
recommended
fee
level
based
on
various
considerations.
The
council
may
consider
to
add
staffs
proposed
new
fees
to
the
master
key
schedule,
some
of
which
are
summarized
in
the
report
before
you
this
evening.
The
council
may
also
consider
to
discontinue
any
outdated
fees
that
are
no
longer
necessary
or
no
longer
required.
N
The
council
may
also
consider
implementing
that
inflationary
indexing
assumption
that
I
just
spoke
about
to
make
sure
that
our
fees
keep
up
with
the
cost
of
living.
And
finally,
the
council
may
consider
to
establish
a
fully-loaded
composite
department,
specific
hourly
rate
that
can
be
used
when
work
is
requested
of
staff
that
isn't
clearly
already
articulated
on
the
master
fee
schedule.
So
it's
really
just
to
ensure
that
we
can
recover
our
costs
for
work
that
is
being
requested
of
staff
by
an
individual
or
a
group.
N
Additional
comparative
information
will
be
provided
to
council
and
the
upcoming
report
as
well.
This
slide
lists
a
handful
of
permits
and
feet'
user
fees
in
the
planning
division
against
some
of
our
peers,
and
it
does
show
that
a
number
of
these
fees
are
lower,
some
of
them
than
some
of
our
peers
as
well,
and
it's
also
important
to
note
on
these
coming
slides,
how
many
of
these
cities
have
a
different
methodology,
there's
a
different
basis
for
how
some
of
these
fees
are
charged.
N
This
next
slide
here
shows
five
permits
and
different
types
of
user
fees
in
the
fire
department.
Again
are
some
of
our
fees
here
are
showing
lower
than
some
of
these
other
cities
as
well
and
again,
I
won't
go
through
through
these
too
much
in
detail.
Again,
it's
just
some
helpful
context
when
looking
at
our
fees
compared
to
other
cities
again
showing
the
variability
among
the
cities
as
well,
so
just
to
wrap
up
this
presentation
this
evening.
This
project,
where
we
are
where
we
are
now
really
starts
with.
F
Still
stumbling
over
those
numbers,
I
just
want
to
comment.
I
think
that
I
mean
this.
Is
this
excellent
work
and
it's
something?
That's
definitely
overdue,
and
it's
not
to
say
that
staff
is
not
doing
their
job.
It's
there's
always
other
priorities,
and
we
know
that
in
2018
we
made
this
to
be
a
priority.
F
A
M
Wanted
to
come,
and
also
that
I
think
this
is
a
great
analysis
and
very
enlightening
it's
it's
amazing
how
far
out
of
whack
we
can
get,
and
even
in
just
a
short
time,
but
this
is
definitely
very
interesting.
I
had
one
question
just
and
just
a
clarification,
so
regarding
any
kind
of
subsidies,
or
if
we
wanted,
you
know
Jim
speaking
earlier
about,
you
know
what
we're
willing
to
waive
or
provide
the
reduced
fees
on
the
way
I
understand
that
is,
we
are
not
allowed
to
build
in
a
cost
to
any
of
these
fees.
M
E
No,
and
so
what
we
do,
for
example,
in
recreation,
is
you
take
a
look
at
all
of
your
fees
and
you
make
a
policy
decision
on
which
ones
you're
going
to
subsidize
in
oftentime
City?
So
you
know
what
we're
gonna
subsidize.
Youth,
recreation,
after-school
programs
and
on
swimming
will
subsidize
youth
swimming
and
use
swimming
lessons,
but
maybe
not
adult
swimming
lessons
to
the
same
degree
and
so
we'll
be
having
those
in
debt
policy
conversations
with
the
City
Council.
M
I
had
broader
concerns
on
how
these
fees
might
impact
our
lower-income
residents
and
fixed
income
residents.
So
as
we
look
to
correct
the
especially
around
you
know
the
permits
building
permits
and
why
not
at
one
point
in
there
it
said
you
know
that
the
the
fees
are
there
they're
optional,
you
know
people
would
choose
it
but
say.
For
example,
your
house
needs
a
new
roof.
You
have
to
go,
get
a
permit
to
put
that
roof
on,
and
so
it's
not
really
optional
for
you.
M
E
A
water
heater
is
sort
of
a
simple
replacement,
but
you
want
people
to
come
in
for
it
to
get
the
literature
on
how
to
strap
down
a
water
heater
properly
for
earthquake,
and
so
oftentimes
cities
sub
subsidize
those
permits
where
it's
a
very
moderate.
It's
a
moderate
cost
to
come
into
the
counter,
and
we
what
we
really
want
to
do
is
educate
you
in
addition
to
making
it
not
as
costly
to
obtain
the
permit.
Okay.
Thank
you.
E
C
K
K
K
If
something
costs
a
lot
of
money
that
were
not
the
say
in
planning
that
we're
really
missing
out
on
that
fee,
it'd
be
nice
to
kind
of
see
where,
where
that
is
I'm,
not
explaining
it
well,
but
you're
you're
nodding
your
head
and
you're
really
smart.
So
you
probably
got
it
and
and
and
then
following
that
up
to
make
sure
that
when
those
fees
are
recovered,
that
they're
dispersed
back
out
to
each
of
the
offices
that
it
doesn't
just
go
to
the
general
fund.
It
goes
to
actually
pay
for
each
of
those
departments.
K
N
N
If
that
work
is
primarily
supporting
an
individual
or
a
group,
that's
where
the
recommendation
will
likely
be
and
then
any
current
subsidies
we
will
include
in
the
study,
as
well
as
to
your
second
question
council
member
Medina.
Most
of
these
departments
listed
here
are
funded
primarily
through
the
general
fund,
but
in
our
in
our
systems
and
the
way
we
budget
they're,
budgeted
within
each
department
and
so
all
of
the
fee.
Revenue
for
the
building
division,
for
example,
stays
you
know
as
we
budgeted
there
for
the
building
division.
An
example.
N
K
A
J
Seventy
five
here,
but
Millbrae
is
one
thousand
two
sixty
seven
South
City
is
four
thousand
three
twelve
Berlin
games,
four
thousand
307
Redwood
city's,
two
thousand
nine,
eighty,
nine
and
San
Mateo
is
a
four
thousand
dollar
deposit.
It's
a
really
wide
range,
so
is.
Is
this
if
it's
going
to
increase?
How
are
you
gonna
make
that
determination,
so.
N
Like
again,
the
the
benchmarking
information
that's
provided
in
the
staff
report
is
really
a
it's
a
data
point.
It's
it's
additional
context
for
council
to
understand
what
is
a
similar
fee
charge
in
a
similar
municipality.
It
cannot
be
the
basis
for
the
setting
of
our
fees.
Our
fees
should
be
set
on
what
is
the
true
cost
to
our
city
to
actually
perform
that
service
and
inherently
the
the
San
Bruno's
staffing
structure
or
other
types
of
expenses.
J
A
I
appreciate
the
work
and
the
report,
because,
obviously
we
need
to
be
current
and
get
this
updated,
but
also
about
subsidy
I
mean
it.
It
goes
through
various
cycles
and
years
that
long
ago,
the
Parks
and
Rec
and
library
subsidized
a
lot
of
programs
to
a
high
degree
and
then
that's
started
to
change.
A
I
mean
was
a
day
and
at
picnic
sites
and
city
park,
we're
free.
You
just
put
a
twenty
five
dollar
deposit,
so
things
that
evolved
and
I
know
it
takes
that
cost,
and
so
I
want
to
be
mindful
of
that
as
well
to
our
residents
versus
non-residents.
But
I
also
do
understand,
too
that
we
really
want
to
look
at
what
programs
are
beneficial
to
the
community
as
a
whole,
and
so
I
would
also
echo
that
that
is
a
concern.
A
Maybe
this
isn't
for
this,
but
you
know
I
know
we
take
credit
cards
and,
and
there
it
works
and
they're
good,
but
I
know
we
pay
what
a
three
percent
fee
and
I
know
for
the
example
and
County
of
San
Mateo.
You
cannot
pay
with
a
credit
card
in
the
town
of
Hillsboro.
You
cannot
pay
with
the
credit
card.
A
My
understanding
is
that
could
be
over
two
hundred
thousand
dollars
annually.
So
I
don't
even
know
if
this
is
at
the
right
venue
and
maybe
it's
a
budget
time,
but
whether
it
would
be
detrimental
or
with
those
costs
be
burdened
upon
the
individual
using
that
who
can
use
a
check
instead.
So
maybe
that's
something
for
a
future
discussion,
but
but
I
know,
that's
that's
significant
money
that
goes
up
in
those
charges
that
we,
the
city
faces,
but
thank
you
for
the
timeline
to
I.
A
F
Just
one
final
question:
I:
don't
expect
a
response
on
this.
That
goes
down
each
individual
item,
but
is
there
any
way
to
get
an
idea
for
me
to
the
other
cities
when
the
last
time
they
did
their
assessment
right,
because
I
mean
I
mean
you
might
look
at
at
a
cost
of
Millbrae
at
1267?
You
might
think.
Well,
that's
great,
but
maybe
it's
been
ten
years
for
them
to
so
it's
it'd
be
nice
to
know.
If
you
know
we're,
our
actual
cost
is
really
high
compared
to
other
cities.
N
Yes,
I
think
it's
a
great
question
and
I
think
we
can
definitely
look
into
that.
I
am
aware
of
Millbrae
going
through
that
process.
Currently
it's
somewhat
recent
for
them.
I
believe
the
information
in
our
staff
report
and
other
presentation
is
is
from
their
current
fee
schedule,
so
not
update
as
my
understanding
yeah
but
I'm
not
aware
of
the
other
cities.
At
this
time,
yeah.
E
And
if
I
can
one
of
the
challenges
with
the
benchmarking,
the
fees
is
that
these
studies
are
based
on
your
cost.
In
some
cities
may
have
more
staff,
and
so
sometimes
it's
a
chicken,
the
egg,
what
came
first,
a
higher
fee
or
more
staff,
and
so
one
of
the
challenges
we
have
with
our
our
reduced
fee
structure,
especially
in
our
building
and
planning,
is
that
that
does
not
give
us
the
ability
to
hire
more
staff
to
actually
have
shorter
timeframes
for
turnaround
times
when
we
get
a
permit.
E
And
so
that
is
one
of
the
big
challenges
we
have
because
we
are
fiscally
constrained
and
our
fees
are
low.
And
so
that
also
means
that
someone
comes
in
and
our
time
to
process
that
application
may
be
a
lot
shorter
in
Millbrae
and
but
Millbrae
Sofia
may
be
twice
as
more
because
they
have
the
bandwidth
to
do
that.
And
so
a
detailed
benchmarking
of
fees
is
really
not
an
apples
to
apples
comparison
and
which
is
why
you
really
have
to
base
these
studies
off
your
cost
and
they
evolve
over
time.
M
Speaking
about
the
the
chicken
and
egg
thing
so
as
we
start
going
through
this
process
and
if
we
determine
that,
perhaps
our
fees
after
you
calculate
your
fully
burden
cost
are
really
really
high.
It
could
also
open
an
opportunity
for
evaluating
our
processes
and
seeing,
if
maybe
we're
not
doing
things
the
most
efficient
way
possible
and
then
I
guess
we
would
have
to
go
through
the
exercise
again,
but
that
could
be
an
interesting
data
point
as
well.
M
A
O
Where's,
my
power
point
sorry
Tech's
on
it
good
evening.
Honorable
mayor
and
members
of
the
City
Council,
my
name
is
Darcy
Smith
I'm,
the
Community
and
Economic
Development
Director
and
I'm
here
tonight,
with
a
study
session
before
you
to
seek
your
direction
regarding
the
draft
parking,
ordinance
and
draft
resolution
with
the
parking
design
standards,
I'll
be
providing
a
quick
introduction
and
with
the
city's
lead
contractor
on
this
effort.
Kelly
bags
from
good
city
company
also
in
attendance
tonight
on
the
project
team
are
Pamela
Wu.
O
The
planning
and
housing
manager,
Erin
akin
the
principal
from
good
city
company
and
Jason
moody,
the
managing
principal
from
economic
and
planning
systems,
and
addition
I'd
also
like
to
acknowledge
other
key
staff.
This
is
very
much
a
group
effort
from
Public,
Works,
Department
and
also
the
city
engineer
marks
efron--oh.
O
So
I
want
to
set
the
stage
for
this
by
covering
the
objective
and
the
main
objective
is
to
get
an
update
and
provide
direction
on
this
item.
But
I
wanted
to
emphasize
the
breadth
of
this
because
it
was
about
a
year
ago
that
we
came
before
you
and
discussed
the
transit
quarter
plan
parking
standards.
The
next
night
we
had
a
community
Town
Hall
to
discuss
parking,
and
we
raised
the
concept
of
developing
new
strategies
to
increase
off
street
parking
stalls
in
residential
neighborhoods,
which
was
a
key
interest
of
the
community.
O
Next,
you
adopted
the
downtown
parking
management
plan,
which
identified
the
long
term
strategy
of
providing
a
downtown
parking
garage
and
in
part
through
new
parking
in
lieu
fees
paid
for
by
development,
and
that
was
key
in
the
interest
of
downtown
revitalization.
So
I've
touched
on
some
of
those
objectives,
but
I
think
you'll
see
the
presentation.
The
breath
of
this
undertaking
and
staff
spent
a
lot
of
time
working
on
that
and
covering
a
wide
variety
of
topics
that
I
think
touch
on
great
value
to
both
the
residential
and
the
business
community.
O
P
Thank
you,
Darcy
I'm,
Kelly
bag
senior,
planner
with
good
city
company
and
I'm
pleased
to
present
the
debt,
the
draft
parking
ordinance
and
parking
design
standards
resolution
to
you
tonight,
I'll
start
with
going
over
some
background
on
the
city
of
San
Bruno's
parking
regulations.
As
Darcy
mentioned,
there's
been
no
comprehensive
code
update
in
decades,
but,
as
you
know,
parking
is
a
major
issue
in
priority
in
the
city,
the
existing
code
lacks
major
sections
expected
in
a
modern
parking
chapter
as
listed
here.
P
The
ordinance
before
you
this
evening
aims
to
resolve
those
issues,
and
this
slide
presents
overarching
goals
of
the
proposed
ordinance.
The
policies
and
regulations
and
the
ordinance
have
been
guided
by
council
input,
including
the
incorporation
of
more
conservative
parking
standards
for
the
transit
corridors
plans.
Area
regulations
also
include
community
feedback
from
the
January
2019
town
hall
and
implementation
of
city
plans,
and
the
housing
element
have
also
been
a
key
goal
of
the
ordinance
update,
especially
as
the
city
is
required
to
implement
certain
housing
element.
Policies
to
maintain
its
housing
element,
certification.
P
Regarding
the
housing
element,
the
ordinance
will
specifically
implement
housing
element
program,
3
H
by
updating
residential
parking
standards
pursuant
to
state
density,
bonus
law
requirements
and
also
by
allowing
tandem
parking
to
satisfy
parking
requirements
for
residential
and
employee
parking
spaces.
Citywide
relevant
policies
of
the
general
plan,
the
tcp
and
the
housing
element
are
raised
in
detail.
In
attachment
five
to
your
staff
report,
the
Planning
Commission
did
review
the
draft
ordinance
and
resolution
at
their
December
17th
meeting
and
they
unanimously
voted
to
recommend
city
council
approval.
P
Three
key
areas
of
discussion
for
your
consideration
were
allowing
unbundled
parking
for
development
in
neighborhoods
that
have
residential
parking
permit
programs
allowing
tandem
parking
for
customers
of
businesses
if
valet
assistance
is
provided
and
allowing
businesses
to
use
the
parking
in
lieu
fee
for
all
or
a
higher
percentage
of
the
required
off
street
parking
attachment.
Three
further
summarizes
Planning
Commission
comments.
P
Now,
with
that
context
in
mind,
I'll
move
on
to
presenting
the
proposed
ordinance.
The
proposed
ordinance
aims
to
provide
clear,
consistent
and
updated
parking
standards
that
implement
past
direction
of
City
Council,
protect
quality
of
life
in
the
city
of
San
Bruno,
and
facilitate
economic
investment
in
the
city.
P
The
ordinance
applies
to
new
construction
enlargements
to
existing
buildings
and
changes
of
land
uses
in
existing
buildings.
It
will
amend
and
replace
municipal
code
chapter
twelve
point
100
and
amend
chapters.
Twelve
point:
nine,
two
point:
nine
six
and
point:
two
hundred
the
amendments
and
twelve
point:
nine:
two:
nine
six
and
two
hundred
of
the
Municipal
Code
are
intended
to
resolve
conflicts
between
the
proposed
ordinance
and
the
existing
Municipal
Code,
and
also
to
consolidate
all
of
the
parking
regulation
into
one
section.
P
Now,
I'll
move
on
to
the
key
features
of
the
ordinance.
An
important
note
here
is
that
the
scope
of
this
ordinance
is
to
regulate
off
street
parking
and
loading,
which
means
parking
and
loading
located
outside
of
the
public
right-of-way
and
the
image
on
the
screen.
You
can
see
three
different
formats
of
parking
there's
on
street
parking
on
the
large
street
to
the
left
of
the
intersection.
There's
a
surface
parking
lot
and
there's
a
rapt
garage
likely.
This
ordinance
would
only
apply
to
the
rapp
garage
and
the
surface
Street
parking
not
to
any
on
street.
P
The
ordinance
regulates,
minimum
vehicle,
motorcycles,
scooter
and
bicycle
parking
spaces
based
off
of
floor
area
and
land
use,
as
well
as
off
street
vehicle
loading.
The
landscaping
requirements
are
set
forth
for
parking
areas
and
transportation.
Demand
management
and
parking
management
requirements
are
included.
P
This
slide
reviews
the
main
objectives
of
the
ordinance.
The
proposed
ordinance
includes
organized
and
updated
standards
designed
to
be
both
business
and
resident
friendly
and
includes
regulation
that
aims
to
increase
off
street
parking
for
residential
areas,
revitalize
the
downtown
and
implements
the
policies
of
the
city's
long-range
planning
documents,
as
previously
discussed
I'll
go
through
how
the
ordinance
addresses
these
objectives
in
the
following,
slides
to
start
with
the
resident
and
business
focus,
the
ordinance
includes
a
user-friendly
and
reorganized
parking
requirement
table
which
I'll
show
in
the
following
slides.
P
It
includes
strategies
to
increase
single-family
off
street
parking,
special
precision,
provisions
for
the
use
of
transportation,
demand
management
to
reduce
vehicle
trips
and
parking
demand
in
specific
plan
areas,
small
business
exemptions
to
encourage
the
establishment
of
businesses
downtown.
And,
lastly,
it
allows
for
flexible
parking
configuration,
meaning
tandem,
mechanical
and
automated
requirements
to
maximize
parking
supply
within
constrained
sites.
P
This
next
slide
shows
the
required
off
street
parking
for
major
non
residential
land
uses.
As
you
can
see,
one
category
on
the
leftmost
column
covers
multiple
similar
land
uses.
In
the
middle
column,
the
number
of
required
parking
spaces
is
shown
on
the
rightmost
column
and
sets
forth
a
number
of
spaces
required
per
square
feet
of
floor
area.
I
will
note
that
projects
located
in
specific
plan
areas,
such
as
the
tcp
area,
can
reduce
off
street
parking
by
10
percent,
with
implementation
of
a
TDM
plan
and
a
parking
management
plan.
P
Moving
on
to
objective
2,
this
slide
outlines
strategies
to
increase
supply
of
off
street
parking
in
residential
areas.
Many
older
homes
in
San
Bruno
cannot
fit
a
modern
vehicle
in
the
existing
garages
and
driveways,
and
these
strategies
aim
to
remedy
that
issue.
The
bulleted
strategies
would
allow
property
owners
with
non-conforming
garages
and
driveway
depths,
to
bring
those
elements
up
to
code
to
fit
a
modern
vehicle
and
reduce
demand
for
on
street
parking
and
allow
residents
to
park
their
vehicles
on
their
properties.
P
The
illustration
to
the
right
shows
you
what
an
uncovered
front
yard
parking
exception
could
look
like,
and
this
instance
it
would
include
increasing
the
driveway
width
in
the
front
yard
to
increase
the
parking
area
to
allow
two
vehicles
to
fit
there.
The
parking
area
could
be
provided
as
shown
on
this
image,
or
it
could
also
be
provided
an
angled
configuration
of
the
front
setback
of
the
home
were
to
be
shallower.
P
Here
are
some
other
real
examples
of
these
options
in
action.
The
top
two
images
show
the
widened
driveway
similar
to
the
illustration,
in
the
previous
slide,
the
bottom,
to
show
recessed
garage
doors
that
would
allow
an
uncovered
parking
space
in
the
driveway,
so
those
driveways
would
be
too
short
without
the
recess.
P
P
So
the
central
business
district
exemption
applies
to
buildings
constructed
prior
to
2005
in
the
CBD
district,
which
is
shown
in
the
thick
black
outline
with
the
red
hatched
fill
property
owners
in
these
older
buildings
have
paid
into
a
parking
assessment
district
which
is
existed
from
the
late
1980s
to
the
mid
2000s
and
it's
they
have
funded
the
existing
surface.
Parking
lots
downtown
with
this
exemption.
No
additional
off
street
parking
or
in
lieu
fee
would
be
required
for
the
first
25
hundredths
feet
of
any
change
of
use
to
a
more
intensive
use.
P
P
The
next
economic
revitalization
item
is
the
parking
and
luffy.
The
parking
in
luffy
is
supported
by
multiple
planning
documents,
but
was
most
explicitly
analyzed
in
the
downtown
parking
management
plan.
The
purpose
of
the
in
luffy
is
to
consolidate
parking
downtown,
rather
than
requiring
it
by
piece
by
piece
of
land
to
end
its
to
fund
a
downtown
garage,
and
this
would
represent
a
major
investment
of
approximately
22
million
dollars
and
which
would
require
additional
planning
and
engineering
analysis
to
actually
build
the
garage.
P
The
in
lieu
fee
would
apply
to
non-residential
land
uses
located
in
specific
plan
areas.
Property
owners
could
pay
the
fee
in
lieu
of
providing
the
off
street
parking
for
up
to
30%
of
required
spaces
and
an
example
of
the
project
is
detailed
below
in
the
bottom
left
corner.
In
this
instance,
the
in
lieu
fee
would
allow
a
property
owner
to
reduce
retail
parking
from
17
spaces
to
12
spaces
on
site,
and
they
would
pay
the
in
lieu
fee
for
five
of
the
required
spaces.
P
This
slide
presents
the
recommended
fee
amounts
for
a
different
specific
plan
areas.
The
city
has
hired
economic
and
planning
systems
to
study
the
fee
amount,
and
preliminary
analysis
has
shown
that
a
fee
of
2,500
to
$25,000
is
feasible
for
projects
in
the
tcp
area.
A
fee
of
$60,000
per
space
is
feasible
for
the
Bay
Hill
specific
plan
area
and
that's
due
to
the
higher
land
values
there
and
also
the
much
elevated
cost
of
constructing
underground
parking.
P
P
P
These
mechanical
parking
structures
are
seeing
widespread
use
in
the
Bay
Area
and
they
do
allow
you
to
provide
more
parking
within
a
smaller
footprint
and
efficiently
use
space.
The
performance
standards
for
mechanical
and
automated
parking
cover
items
like
maintenance,
inspection
and
availability
of
vehicles,
and
that's
in
order
to
ensure
that
these
structures
are
functional
and
long-lasting
similar
to
traditional
surface
parking.
P
P
This
slide
prevents
then
presents
the
next
steps.
The
target
adoption
date
is
early
2020,
which
will
allow
staff
to
include
this
accomplishment
and
the
housing
element.
Progress
report
and
this
concludes
my
presentation,
I'm
available
to
answer
any
questions
that
you
may
have,
as
is
this
city
and
consultant
team.
Thank
you.
Thank.
A
A
K
Good
evening,
as
you
heard,
the
Planning
Commission
approved
this
unanimously
I
would
encourage
the
council
to
do
the
same.
There
are
provisions
in
here,
as
you
saw,
there's
many
pieces
of
this-
are
critical
that
we
get.
We
get
into
the
code,
all
the
missing
the
missing
pieces
of
the
of
the
ordinance
that
we
that
we
do
not
have,
but
especially
the
provision
for
the
downtown
revitalization
there
with
the
provisions
for
the
first
2,500
square
feet
of
businesses
to
be
exempt
from
from
off-site
parking
requirements.
It's
really
going
to
help
our
downtown
businesses.
K
As
you
know,
we
have.
We
have
businesses
that
cannot
open
because
of
the
current
provisions.
This
will
help
them
immediately.
I
would
strongly
recommend
that
you
adopt
us
as
soon
as
possible
if
there
are
things
that
you
feel
that
are
missing,
that
you
want,
it
would
want
to
add.
I
would
still
say,
adopt
this
and
then
go
after
those
things
later,
rather
than
hold
everything
up,
I'm
trying
to
add
additional
things,
because
we
know
how
that
can
happen.
So
I
just
want
to
reiterate
what
the
Planning
Commission
has
already
sent
throughout
their
comments.
K
G
Good
evening
mayor
council
staff,
I'm
Allison
Warner
I'm,
with
Regency
centers,
we
own
the
Bay
Hill
Shopping
Center
in
the
Bay
Hill
specific
plan
area.
So
first
I'd
just
like
to
thank
you
all
for
your
efforts.
As
you
approach,
this
ordinance
I
think
that
I
recognize
it's
definitely
intended
to
be
forward-thinking
and
I.
Think
that
the
efforts
to
revitalize
downtown
are
fantastic.
I.
Just
personally
have
a
few
concerns.
G
Forgive
me
if
I
read
I
kind
of
have
a
bit
to
say
it
was
quite
a
long
last
ordinance
to
read
through
so
I
have
a
few
concerns
over
some
of
the
overly
restrictive
components
such
as
how
to
count
the
mechanical
parking
spaces,
for
example,
as
well
as
the
inequitable
act
in
the
equitable
application
of
the
in
lieu
fees
to
the
specific
plan
areas
relative
to
the
rest
of
the
city
as
an
owner
of
a
retail
shopping
center.
The
one
thing
I
would
strongly
caution.
G
G
I
think
that
the
ability
to
consider
more
efficient
parking
options
on
a
retail
property
becomes
even
more
complicated,
because
tenants
often
have
significant
control
over
what
we
can
or
can't
do
so.
Just
adding
a
garage
to
make
up
the
difference
is
not
always
an
option,
so
the
ability
to
innovate
and
add
things
like
parking,
stackers
and
places
that
make
more
sense
where
tenants
allow
us
is
great.
I
just
then
have
concern
with
the
amount
of
parking
stackers
that
were
allowed
to
add.
G
Or
then
you
know
how
exactly
they're
counted
and
is
that
the
right
way
to
count
them
I
think
that
alternative
transportation
methods
offering
TDM
S
are
all
fantastic
and
I'm
in
full
support
of
that
component
of
the
ordinance.
But
I
will
also
caution
that
we're
still
learning
how
customers
are
using
these
new
options
like
uber
and
lift
and
razor
scooters,
but
it's
difficult
to
buy
your
groceries
and
razor
scooter
home
so
again,
just
being
thoughtful
and
how
customers
use
different
land
uses.
G
So
I
would
just
urge
you
to
carefully
consider
the
lack
of
flexibility
and
certain
components
to
allow
landowners
to
respond
to
changing
demands
over
the
coming
years
across
all
an
uses
and
consider
a
more
equitable
application
across
the
entire
city
of
things
such
as
in
lieu
fees.
So
thank
you.
Thank.
Q
Good
evening
Council,
my
name
is
Dean
Moser
and
I
represent
the
owners
of
801
851
Traeger
and
I
like
to
thank
you
for
your
consideration
in
being
a
little
flexible
in
the
mitigation
fees,
but
I'm
wondering
if
I
heard
correctly,
it
doesn't
apply
to
residential.
So
if
I
wanted
to
build
residential
on
that
space,
does
that
mean
that
I,
don't
I,
don't
get
that
flexibility
in
the
30%
reduction
in
actual
parking
spaces?
Q
L
My
roll
baron
counts
on
ken
ibera.
I've
been
an
architect
for
35
years.
Parking
is
determined
by
uses
and
amounts
that
are
outlined
in
the
municipal
code.
My
challenge
nearly
on
every
project,
is
calculating
in
square
footage.
I
have
dealt
with
staff
in
many
municipalities
and
the
peninsula
over
how
they
calculate
parking
and
when
I
look
at
this
a
new
ordinance
and
I
in
favor
of
a
lot
of
the
a
lot
of
the
changes,
I
still
look
at
the
table
of
what's
required
for
parking
and
in
some
cases
it's
gross
floor
area
of
a
building.
L
In
some
cases
it's
broken
down,
and
the
example
that
you
give
retail
the
restaurant
and
I
was
happy
to
see
on
the
on
the
presentation
that
you
know
that
there
was
some
calculation
for
just
the
public
area,
but
in
many
cases
the
calculation
is
for
the
entire
building.
Now,
obviously,
we
know
in
a
restaurant
that
there
is
space
for
the
dining
public,
there's
a
large
space
for
a
kitchen,
and
then
there's
also
storage
and
restrooms
and
I'd
like
to
see,
possibly
if
that
is
being
done
in
staff
I'd
like
to
see
it
document
it.
L
There
is
not
I,
don't
find
anything
in
this
ordinance
that
states
how
we
calculate
parking,
how
we
calculate
the
spaces
so
I'm,
hoping
that
that
happens.
I
also
like,
as
far
as
residential
I've
I've,
always
been
in
favor
of
San
Bruno's
dealing
with
residential
parking
because
of
residential
additions
and
remodels
just
want
to
make
sure
that
the
use
permit
process
will
still
be
maintained
and
that
also
the
the
ideas
of
being
able
to
park
more
open,
open
space
parking
on
your
front
yard
is
still
is
still
allowed
and
taken
in
consideration.
L
A
F
F
P
Hi
so
I'm
happy
to
respond
to
this
question.
I
would
direct
the
member
of
the
public
to
the
definitions
section.
So
we
made
very
careful
paid,
very
careful
attention
to
the
definitions
that
follow
the
chapter,
and
so
the
definition
of
floor
area
is
located
in
the
definition
section
and
also
the
definition
of
public
floor
area
that
specifies
exactly
what
you
should
be
counting
towards.
Your
parking.
I
meant.
J
Yeah
so
that
I
asked
a
question
that
report
refers
to
parking
spaces,
I
believe
that's
thirty,
five
to
forty
five
thousand
right
and
I
think
at
22
million
you're
at
fifty
five
thousand
and
I
know
from
other
things
that
I've
read
parking
spaces
could
go
up
to
80,000
per
parking
space.
So
if
you
could
just
talk
a
little
bit
about
how.
P
E
Let's
just
there,
there
are
two
questions
that
are
being
asked:
one
is
about
the
calculation
for
what
it
costs
to
build
a
parking
structure
downtown
and
then
the
other
question
is:
why
is
there
a
difference
between
the
Bay
Hill
office
park
in
Luffy
in
the
in
Luffy
elsewhere?
The
first
question
Kelly
just
provided
the
answer
to
which
is
the
math
is
$60,000
a
space
in
downtown,
and
so
in
the
PowerPoint.
It
was
a
twenty
two
million
dollar
garage
estimate
for
a
three
hundred
and
seventy
space
garage.
That's
roughly
sixty
thousand
dollars
of
space.
E
E
The
cost
to
construct
a
parking
space
varies
based
on
the
site
constraints
based
on
the
size
based
on
whether
you're
going
to
subterranean,
but
in
in
general.
What
were
what
we're
estimating
is
for
an
above-ground
parking
space
of
four
garage
of
250
and
above
you're,
really
looking
at
a
cost
of
anywhere
from
forty
to
sixty
five
thousand
dollars
per
space,
and
it
just
all
matters
on
the
property,
and
so
there
are
other
considerations
what
it
costs
to
go:
subterranean
and
building
types.
And
what
is
before.
E
You
is
a
slide
that
we
thought
was
a
little
too
detailed
to
go
through
initially,
but
we
did
want
to
have
it
sort
of
as
a
pocket
slide
thinking.
This
question
will
come
up,
so
I
want
to
ask
Jason
from
EPS
to
come
up
and
walk
us
through
this
slide,
because
that'll
give
the
city
council
members
of
the
public
a
window
into
the
deep
analysis
that
went
into
the
settings
setting
of
the
fee
and
I
think
Jason
and/or
I
will
expound
upon
other
points
later.
H
R
You,
my
name
is
Jason
moody,
I'm,
managing
principal
of
economic
and
planning
systems.
I
think
Javon
did
a
perfectly
fine
job
of
answering
the
question
about
the
cost
of
a
parking
garage
and
how
we
got
to
that
number.
So
I
won't
elaborate
on
that
one.
What
we
also
did
at
this
part
of
this
analysis
is
to
try
to
get
a
sense
of
how
the
N
Luffy
option
might
affect
the
development
feasibility
of
various
types
of
real
estate
projects,
and
we
looked
at
a
number
of
different
types
of
real
estate
projects.
R
One
would
just
be
taking
a
retail
and
make
it
a
restaurant
to
change
the
views,
then
the
other
one
would
be
looking
at
a
vacant
retail
site,
so
its
its
retail
but
its
vacant,
and
then
you
make
it
a
restaurant,
and
then
we
look
at
a
four-story,
a
five-story
and
so
on
down
line.
Those
are
the
different
types
of
projects
we
looked
at.
They
all
are
what
I
would
call
prototypes
the
very
generic
and
for
the
purpose
of
this
now,
so
we
can't
obviously
I
evaluate
every
potential
project
that
might
be
there.
R
So
we
have
to
make
assumptions
about
how
much
the
land
would
cost,
for
example,
and
what's
confusing
on
a
relatively
generic,
normally
shaped
site,
and
so
we
went
through
that
and
I
guess
the
big.
The
big
findings
that
we
found
is
that
obviously
the
fee
helps
everything,
because
it
gives
you
an
option
that
you
don't
currently
have
so
the
fee
does
not
hurt
any
project
at
all.
It's
give
it's
a
it's
a
provides
more
flexibility,
so
the
fee
is
over
over
from
an
economic
perspective,
a
good
thing.
R
In
some
cases
the
fees
actually
will
allow
project
that
might
not
be
feasible
to
be
feasible,
so
you
wouldn't
be
able
to
do
it,
but
for
the
fee
in
other
cases
it
it
may
not
have
improve
the
feasibility,
the
project's
not
likely
to
be
feasible
anyway
and
adding
the
fee
flexibility.
Doesn't
it
doesn't
shift
the
needle
enough,
particularly
because
you're
only
allowing
for
30%?
R
If
that
number
went
up
more,
so
you
could
out
in
lieu
out
at
more
than
30%
you
made
a
needle
on
some
of
these
projects,
but
with
a
30%
for
some
of
them
you
won't
and
then
the
the
the
office
in
in
Bay
Hill.
We
looked
at
office
in
Bay
Hill,
not
we
didn't
look
at
the
retail
conversion
of
a
retail
shopping
center,
whose
primarily
at
office
that
we
looked
at
in
that
case
and
I
think
someone
said
earlier,
you
know,
building
a
parking
underground
parking
structure
is
what
is
required
in
Bay.
R
Hill
is
pretty
expensive
proposition,
so
to
the
extent
that
the
fee
is
providing
the
benefit.
If
flexibility,
it's
it's
something
that
would
make
feasibility
and
prove
feasibility.
Now
we
all
Reno
that
the
YouTube
is
going
forward
with
their
project,
so
that
would
suggest
that
it's
feasible
to
some
degree.
So
this
isn't
making
that
a
more
infeasible,
because
it's
already
feasible
it's
just
another
option,
so
we
can
go
and
talk
about
each
one
of
these
different
prototypes.
If
you
will
further
about
how
the
fee
affects
it,
but
you
can
kind
of
see
green
as
feasible.
E
It's
also
important
to
note
that
the
use
of
the
in
luffy
is
completely
discretionary,
and
this
ordinance
provides
it
as
an
option,
but
it
would
have
to
be
approved
at
whatever
level
of
the
project
or
the
modification
is
being
approved
at
most
often
likely.
The
Planning
Commission,
sometimes
that
there
is
a
discretionary
approval
tied
to
the
project.
E
Even
though
there's
the
possibility
a
10%
fee
waiver
with
a
transit
demand
management
plan
and
then
an
additional
fee
out
of
up
to
20%,
that's
not
a
guarantee
for
any
project,
and
when
we
talk
about
retail
and
in
particular,
when
we
talk
about
Bayhill,
we
will
certainly
be
looking
at
the
potentiality
for
impacted
parking,
and
we
may
make
the
determination
that
we
do
not
favor
a
fee
out
for
retail
space
in
Bay.
Hill
I
think
we
all
know
how
impacted
the
parking
at
the
Bay
Hill
office.
E
J
Wanted
to
ask
about
that,
there's
I
think
it's
an
attachment.
3
I
just
have
my
written
notes,
but
there's
a
comment
about
the
customer.
Parking
can
be
tandem
and
then
I
guess
there
was
a
comment
or
a
request
too,
from
maybe
the
business
owners
about
valet
parking
and
I
just
wanted
to
I
wanted
to
expand
on
that
idea.
A
little
bit
sure.
J
P
The
ordinance
as
it
is,
does
not
allow
tandem
parking
for
either
visitor
parking
for
the
residential
or
for
customer
parking
for
non-residential
uses,
and
the
rationale
behind
that
is
just
that.
It
would
be
very
difficult
for
people
who
aren't
in
an
organization
together
to
be
able
to
coordinate
removal
of
the
tandem
parking
space
if
you're
the
first
one
in
and
then
that
did
come
up
at
Planning
Commission.
J
Also
wanted
to
just
get
clarity
on
and
I
think
we've
already
spoken
about
a
little
bit
but
or
a
lot,
but
I
do
want
to
get
clarity
on
the
residential,
so
there's
in
the
Bay
Hill
specific
plan.
So
it
sounds
like
there's
the
ability
to
relieve
up
to
10%
of
the
parking
restriction
is
that
right
and
then
so
they
can
go
all
the
way
up
to
30%.
So
it's.
P
In
uses,
they
can
use
a
TDM
plan
that
demonstrates
that
they've
reduced
their
trip
generation
by
10
percent.
In
order
to
receive
the
ten
percent
reduction
in
parking
spaces.
Deanne
Luffy
could
be
used
for
an
additional
20
percent,
but
they
cannot
go
above
30
percent
total,
so
they
can
combine
those
two
reductions
but
not
exceed
30
percent
and.
O
So
Annalee
we've
had
straight
denials,
but
we
often
get
customers
who
come
to
the
city's
public
service
counter
and
ask
about
vacant
spaces
or
spaces
that
might
be
occupied
by
a
use
which,
on
the
parking,
the
parking
table
has
a
lower
demand
requirement.
So
you
heard
Mr
Ibara,
say
well,
there's
there's
some
that
require
a
lot
and
hold
on.
Let
me
find
this
table.
There's
some
uses
that
require
a
lot
more
parking
and
there's
some
that
require
a
lot
less
and
typically
restaurant
uses
or
high
parking
demand
uses
and
then
entertainment
and
services.
O
So
a
fitness
club,
for
example,
or
massage
establishment
or
personal
services
like
a
salon
or
beauty
salon,
are
require
a
little
bit
more
and
then
the
lowest
parking
requirements,
general
retail
and
traditionally
in
our
downtown.
It
was
more
of
a
retail
downtown.
But
it's
shifted
like
many
downtown's
right.
Think
of
all
the
successful
downtown's
on
the
peninsula,
there's
been
a
shift
from
a
more
retail
downtown
to
a
restaurant
or
personal
services
downtown,
and
this
is
just
the
evolution
right.
O
The
malls
are
the
center
of
the
retail
uses,
and
so
that's
a
barrier,
because
right
now
what
our
chat?
What
our
parking
chapter
says
is
that
if
there's
a
change
in
use,
you
have
to
provide
the
parking
and
you
have
to
provide
an
on-site,
there's
no
end
loafie,
there's
no
exemption,
there's,
there's
no
relief,
and
that
is
definitely
been
a
barrier
to
the
city
staff
saying
to
a
potential
business.
Tenant
such
as
a
restaurant
or
a
personal
service
use
or
we've
had
inquiries
it
from
health
clubs.
O
We
we
know
that
other
successful
cities
have
built
structures
and
that
provides
that
public
parking
for
the
downtown
and
that's
the
ultimate
goal,
but
I
think
we.
We
need
to
do
something
in
this
in
the
near
term,
and
you
know:
we've
talked
to
some
business
owners
at
the
Planning
Commission.
We
got
some
feedback
from
from
a
business
owner
and
property
owner
who
were
trying
to
make
make
a
site
work.
O
And,
again
that's
why
you
see
the
audience
here
tonight,
but
for
any
existing
approvals,
such
as
the
aperture
or
any
past
approvals.
Those
approvals
stand
and
they
could
only
be
modified
through
a
process.
That's
a
formal
process.
So
when
projects
are
approved,
they're
approved
with
codes
that
the
codes
that
aren't
effect
at
that
time
and
the
parking
requirements
are
effect
at
that
time
and
there's
a
process,
that's
discretionary.
They
could
go
through
to
modify
that,
but
it
is
a
city
process
and
we
were
retained.
Discretion.
A
O
I'll
answer
that
so
we
deliberately
did
not
want
to
initially
with
a
brand
new
in
Luffy
program,
include
a
use
that
we
thought
would
need
to
meet
an
on-site
parking
requirement,
which
is
residential,
and
traditionally
this
in
Luffy
has
been
used
for
non
residential
uses,
as
I
mentioned,
where
there's
a
parking
garage
city
plans
on
building
one.
But
that
said
with,
for
this
particular
property
at
on
Traeger.
It
is
my
understand
that
they
have
a
surface
parking
lot
that
serves
the
provides
office
parking.
O
That
would
then
be
built
upon
to
provide
a
residential
project
so
that
surface
parking
for
the
office
would
need
to
be
replaced
somewhere
and,
for
example,
that
component
in
the
replacement
of
that
could
utilize
the
in
Luffy.
But
the
residential.
Our
policy
proposal
to
you
is
to
require
it
on
site,
because
the
downtown
parking
garage
is
really
meant
to
cater
to
visitors
and
employees
of
businesses
and.
E
It's
important
to
note
that
the
city
recently
increased
the
parking
standards
and
that
will
the
plan,
for
that
is
to
be
codified
with
this
ordinance
and
so,
for
example,
going
to
approximately
one
parking
space
per
bedroom.
There
was
a
lot
of
talk
and
consideration
around
that
and
provided
him
in
Luffy
would
potentially
water
that
down.
E
So
in
the
draft
regulations
we
allow
for
up
to
50%
of
mechanical
parking
with
a
non
valley
as
a
non
valet
and
then
up
to
55%
with
a
Valley
Assist
one
of
the
things
that
this
is
a
study
session.
And
so
these
are
not
final
final
recommendations.
But
we've
had
a
lot
of
conversations
and
issues
have
been
raised
around
well.
E
If
you
can
get
50
percent
without
valet,
just
getting
an
additional
five
percent
by
incurring
the
expense
of
a
valet
may
not
be
that
beneficial
and
one
of
the
things
we
wanted
to
do,
because
we
know
that
these
mechanical
systems
are
constantly
improving
and
the
design
of
them
are
constantly
improving,
as
we
want
to
allow
flexibility.
And
so
we
are
having
internal
discussions
about
raising
that
with
valet
assess
up
to
75
percent,
knowing
that
it
will
have
to
be
a
discussion
and
an
agreement.
E
One
of
the
things
that
is
a
concern
is
ensuring
that
the
parking
spaces
frankly
are
large
enough
to
fit
the
vehicles
that
people
are
driving
and
so
looking
at
the
vehicle
mix
and
Studies
on.
That
may
be
something
that
we
look
at
when
we
increase
the
value
of
higher
than
from
55
percent
going
to
75
percent.
But
we
want
to
be
able
to
provide
an
incentive
for
mechanical
parking
and
we
absolutely
want
to
make
it
be
something
that
is
appropriate
for
the
user.
E
And
one
of
the
things
about
mechanical
lifts
is
that
what
really
matters
is
how
long
it
takes
me
to
get
my
car
in
and
out,
and
you
take
away
that
queuing
the
queuing
time
of
people
driving
around,
but
there's
a
limit
to
how
long
people
think
is
appropriate
to
sit
and
wait
for
this
high-tech
thing
to
bring
my
car
down.
And
so
we
just
want
to
really
look
into
that.
But
we
think
moving
from
55
to
75
would
appropriate.
And
so,
when
we
come
back
with
the
final
recommendations
that
very
well
may
be
in
there.
K
G
Happy
to
hear
that
you're,
considering
a
higher
percentage
for
valet,
because
I
absolutely
agree
that
that
type
of
system
is
more
utilized
when
there's
the
service
provided
with
it.
I
think
the
other
half
of
my
question
was
more
related
to
how
its
counted
and
whether
or
not
both
the
surface
parking
and
the
stacked
car
above
should
truly
both
be
considered
within
that
seventy
five
percent
or
if
just
the
mechanical
component,
that's
stacking,
should
be
counted
towards
the
percentage.
E
We'd
have
to
get
out
of
whiteboard,
but
we
think
going
to
75
percent
allows
for
an
appropriate
use
of
stackers
and
on
the
methodology
that
we're
proposing
of
counting
both
the
bottom
space
in
the
top
space
as
being
in
the
stacked
unit
works.
And
so
this
is
a
study
session.
We
will
continue
to
have
conversations
with
stakeholders,
but
I
think
to
describe
the
methodology
we
have.
We
had
various
models
up
on
the
board
this
afternoon,
then.
O
So,
just
a
little
bit
of
background,
the
city
council
did
approve
a
project
with
mechanical
parking
lifts
at
one-one-one,
San
Bruno.
That
was
the
first
to
my
knowledge
and
it
has
not
started
construction
yet.
But
we
are
working
through
that
in
the
building,
permit
plan
check
stage
and
there's
a
lot
of
intricate
details
such
as
fire
sprinklers.
O
K
O
At
this
point,
we're
not
processing
any
applications
with
mechanical
parking,
but
it
is
something
that
more
developers
are
looking
to,
especially
within
parking
garages
to
Inc
it
really.
It
just
increases
parking,
and
you
can
see
from
the
picture
here.
You
can
really
be
more
efficient
with
your
layout
and.
E
Darcy
is
correct.
We
are
not
working
outside
of
the
people
that
have
spoken
tonight
and
that
are
active
locally
with
projects
that
want
to
do
them.
We
have
had
companies
that
manufacture
and
implement
these
systems,
talk
to
us
about
them
and
review
our
regulations
and
provide
comment,
and
so
that
feedback
loop
is
happening,
got.
P
Can
answer
that
question
I'm?
So
there
was
a
comment
about
flexibility
with
the
landscaping
provisions
and
we
are
introducing
new
landscaping
provisions
that
we
feel
are
appropriate.
But
there
is
an
exception
indicated
for
people
who
really
demonstrate
hardship
and
meeting
the
required
off
street
parking
and
providing
the
landscaping.
There
is
a
way
for
you
to
demonstrate
hardship
and
reduce
that
requirement.
I.
K
A
K
It
so
so
the
big
thing
here,
how
does,
if
you
can
explain
again-
and
maybe
it's
just
I'm-
not
clicking
it
tonight-
how
it's
$60,000
up
in
Bay
Hill
that
somebody
would
paid
to
put
a
parking
garage
in
downtown?
That's
where
that
money's
going
well
and
it
just
seems
kind
of
if
I
was
over
there
I'd
be
like
how
was
that
benefiting
me?
I,
don't
know,
go
ahead.
E
E
It's
also
important
to
note
that
the
reason
why
there
are
lower
fees
in
the
downtown
and
for
small
businesses
is
that
as
a
policy
option,
that
the
City
Council
has
and
part
of
the
recommendations
has
the
City
Council
taken
advantage
of
that
ability
to
say
you
know
what
we
do
want
to
have
some
economic
development
initiatives
as
a
part
of
this
fee
setting
methodology,
and
we
have
businesses
that
can't
expand
and
so
have
any
small
business
exemption
and
having
reduced
in
our
central
business
district.
That
has
a
small
footprint.
E
E
Li
complicated
analysis,
it
depends
on
the
business,
it
depends
on
the
use
that
they
are
in
that
they
want
to
change
to.
It
depends
on
how
much
you
may
have
businesses
that
are
not
changing
use.
They
just
have
extra
square
footage
that
they
would
like
to
take
advantage
of
that
they
can't
take
advantage
of
now.
It's
really
a
case-by-case
analysis
and
so
I
can't
say
X
number
of
businesses
downtown
well,
it
would
use
this
exemption.
E
C
K
K
So,
as
a
former
Public
Works
inspector
here,
I
had
to
explain
many
many
times
to
residents
why
we
wouldn't
allow
the
throat
cut
to
be
extended,
even
though
you
can
look,
there's
a
six-foot
space
between
driveway
to
driveway
and
why
we
couldn't
allow
them
to
extend
the
curb
cut
on
that
side,
because
you're
never
gonna
find
a
six
foot.
Yes,.
P
The
other
item
that
I
would
bring
up
related
to
your
question
is
that
those
exemptions
are
going
to
be
only
available
to
residents
that
are
in
City
Council
designated
high
impact
areas,
and
that
is
the
part
of
the
reason
is
that
increasing
impervious
area
has
stormwater
impacts,
and
there
are
also
esthetic
impacts
to
undertaking
some
of
these
measures.
So
we
do
want
to
make
sure
that
they're
only
being
employed
by
people
that
are
really
an
impacted
areas.
Okay,.
K
M
It
Michael
thank
you,
so
I
heard
that
there
there
are
gonna,
be
some
changes
to
the
landscaping
requirements,
but
one
of
the
comments
I
heard
was
where
there
are
some
requirements
for
the
storm
runoff.
In
addition
to
what
would
be
considered
new
landscape
requirements
and
so
I'm
wondering
is
the
storm
runoff
documented
that
requirement
documented
somewhere
else
in
our
code,
because
I
know
it's
not
I
didn't
see
it
addressed
in
anything
we
had
here
so.
O
M
What
would
be
considered
so
there
was
a
like
a
massive
reconfiguration
of
streets
and
and
parking
I
think
that
I
would
imagine
would
not
fall
under
the
likes.
A
for
example,
at
Bay
Hill,
where
there's
a
lot
of
parking
buildings
are
gonna.
Go
there
I'm,
assuming
that
none
of
that
existing
surface
parking,
even
if
it's
moved
somewhere
else
or
reconfigured,
would
really
count
as
a
remodel.
Would
that
be
considered
a
new
surface
parking,
the.
P
E
J
E
The
question
is:
is
there
an
update
on
on
meters?
So
in
lieu
fees
is
one
mechanism
that
could
go
to
fun
a
parking
structure?
One
of
the
things
we
talked
about
I,
think
earlier
in
the
fiscal
year
and
around
budget
time,
is
that
the
city
is
looking
into
paid
parking
in
downtown,
both
on-street
and
off-street.
E
That
work
is
still
going
on
and
the
we
are
looking
part
of
the
money
that
council
approved
for
the
fiscal
sustainability
project
was
to
hire
a
parking
consultant
to
take
a
look
at
what
those
fees
should
be
for
both
the
arm
street
and
off
street
that
work.
The
consultant
has
not
been
brought
on
board,
but
it
is
very
much
our
intention
to
further
that
work,
because
we
do
know
from
our
downtown
parking
study
that
at
times
there
a
significant
demand
for
parking
and
all
of
the
arm.
E
Street
spaces
are
taken
and
there
are
significant
off-street
spaces
available
in
our
city,
parking
lots,
and
so
one
of
the
things
cities
do
when
they
have
people
driving
around
and
they
introduce
demand
parking
and
you
make
it
a
little
cheaper
to
park
in
the
garage
than
the
park
on
the
street.
And
so
you
push
people
through
demand
pricing
to
where
the
available
parking
is
versus.
E
Having
people
continue
to
assert
the
circle,
finding
name
on
street
parking
space,
something
that
we
are
very
much
looking
into
and
depending
on
the
level
of
the
pay
parking
depending
on
the
revenue.
There
may
be
money
for
meters
that
can
help
pay
debt
service
for
parking
structure,
I'm
familiar
with
parking
structures
that
have
multiple
funding
sources
and
Luffy
money
that
has
accumulated
in
a
fund,
an
ongoing
revenue
stream
like
parking
meters
and
you
capitalize
that
and
take
on
debt,
and
you
use
some
of
the
parking
revenue
to
pay
back
the
debt.
E
And
so
absolutely
we
are
very
much
working
to
further
the
direction
to
obtain
a
parking
structure,
downtown
and
and
in
Luffy,
is
just
one
bucket.
Should
developers
ask
to
take
advantage
of
it
and
should
it
be
approved
because
it's
appropriate
for
that
site
again,
it's
discretionary,
it's
one
pot
that
could
be
used
to
help
fund
a
parking
structure.
We
are
not
looking
at
in
lieu
fees
as
a
silver
bullet
to
say
this
is
how
we're
funding
the
parking
structure.
J
O
O
A
So
to
staff
you
were
asking
us
about
costs.
If
we
had
thoughts
correct
you
want
to
pull
that
slide
back
up.
You
are
also
asking
about
unbundling
tandems
and
parking
Lou
as
far
as
bundling
I'm,
I'm
I
have
a
concern
with
that
as
well,
just
as
but
it's
nothing
new
for
what
I
feel
on
that,
because
I
think
it
ends
up
happening
exactly
with
what
Laura
had
said,
but
on
the
fees.
What
kind
of
feedback
would
you
like
from
us,
or
do
you
want
some
direction
or
no?
This.
E
Is
just
a
study
section,
a
study
session?
The
council
should
feel
free
to
give
feedback
on
anything
that
we
present
it.
We
will
go
back
and
finalize
the
staff
recommendations
and
look
forward
to
bringing
those
to
you
I
believe
in
the
month
of
as
soon
as
possible.
So
we
I
doubt
we
can
get
it
by
the
next
meeting,
but
we
will
certainly
do
it
as
soon
as
possible.
Okay,.
A
J
The
League
of
Cities
conferences,
past
Wednesday,
to
Friday
for
new
council
members
and
mayor's
and
Javan
attended
as
well
and
I
thought
it
was
quite
informative
and
it
was
a
really
great
opportunity
to
meet
a
lot
of
other
council
members
across
the
state
that
are
going
through
a
lot
of
the
policy
decisions
that
we're
gonna
be
going
through.
So
that
was
it.
Thank
you.
Thank.
F
Q
K
A
We
want
to
thank
you
for
your
service
to
the
city
of
San
Bruno,
and
we
will
probably
keep
seeing
each
other
in
our
travels
and,
if
not
we'll,
come
down
and
see
how
your
new
office
looks.
But
thank
you
very
much
add
to
everything
and
for
what
you
have
done
for
us
in
San.
Bruno
second
thing
is
I.
You
know
this
is
one
thing,
I
guess
they'll
say
what
do
you
like
about
being
the
mayor?
And
what
do
you
don't
I?
We
won't
go
through
the
list
of
knots.
A
Let's
go
through
the
list
of
positives,
very
nice,
unique
experience
in
South
San
Francisco
at
the
Elks,
Lodge
and
I
had
this
is
my
third
one
I've
been
honored
to
do
and
that
is
to
go
meet.
Nancy
Nancy
is
here
on
the
the
board
and
of
course
she's.
You
know
she
has.
You
could
see
her
name,
but
she
says
it's
Nancy
and
when
you
turn
100
in
San
Bruno,
whatever
you
say
you
get,
and
so
it
went
down
and
they
had
friends
and
family.
She
lives
here
in
town.
A
That's
been
here
for
quite
some
time
came
from
Italy.
She
has
her
the
accent
which
is
just
adorable
and
she
stills
going
strong
doing
great
family
was
exceptional
and,
of
course,
that
talk
goes
so
what
makes
it
so
good,
because
now
this
is
a
third
one.
So
I
was
like
the
last
one
was
laughter
this
one.
It
is
true.
She
likes
having
a
little
red
wine
so
that
maybe
that
secret.
So
as
as
that
day
in
south
city,
we
were
toasting
together
with
red
wine.
A
So
we
want
to
wish
Nancy
a
happy
100th
birthday
and
wish
her
and
her
family
well
and
the
family
sent
those
pictures
and
also
wanted
to
thank
the
council
for
acknowledging
her.
So
thank
you.
Everyone
and
we'll
go
ahead
and
adjourn
to
our
next
regular
City
Council
meeting
right
here
in
February
11,
seven
o'clock
at
stammer,
no
Senior
Center
meeting
adjourn.
