ss 1307) in an amount not to exceed $659,600, authorizing the City Manager to execute the
agreement, and authorizing a total budget of $758,540. (Richard Cho, Principal. Civil
Engineer and Peter Vorametsanti, Swinerton Management & Consulting)
Peter Vorametsanti with Swinerton Management & Consulting presented the report and provided an
overview of the Water Quality Control Plant -Wide Coating and Corrosion Protection CIP Project.
He stated that this is a relatively complex project for a very complex facility located in a very
corrosive environment at the edge of the Bay. Corrosion and the need for periodic coating are not
unique to this plant. The plant treats water with multiple processes that dynamically link together;
treating one process affects the control of other processes. This project entails shut downs and a
need to find solutions to replace the process given that the plant is a 24/7-365 operation center. Due
to its complexity, the project will take three years to complete. EKI will be preparing three different
bid packages for each of the 3 years. This project will also include the pump stations that are not
located at the plant but throughout the City. The approximate cost of this project is $6-7 million
dollars over 3 years.
Mr. Vorametsanti stated that the professional service contract selection complied with Public
Contract Code, the Brooks Act and the Mini Brooks Act, which states that the City pick the
consultant based on their qualifications. He indicated that solicitation efforts resulted in one
proposal from EKI. EKI is a local Burlingame business with expertise in coating along with the
processes of water treatment, electrical and mechanical engineering. They are currently providing
services to the treatment plant managing small projects. EKI representatives were present to answer
questions.
REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING DECEMBER 12, 2018
MINUTES PAGE 5
Councilman Garbarino asked when the equipment was last coated or re -coated.
Plant Superintendent Schumacker stated that the last time all equipment was fully coated was in
2001. He indicated that the coating of equipment takes place during the dry summer months.
Councilman Garbarino inquired about a planned routine maintenance schedule.
Plant Superintendent Schumacker stated that a routine maintenance schedule is currently in place.
He also indicated that in 2013 there was a full metals assessment of every asset in the facility with
priority ranking. Staff begun to coat the highest priority items with an established maintenance
cycle.
Councilman Nagales inquired about the $6 million cost covering 3 years of coating and re -coating
and the plan for additional unplanned improvements.
Plant Superintendent Schumacker stated that the project would get all the coatings up to a baseline
standard and into a maintenance cycle of re-application to minimize costs.
Councilwoman Nicolas inquired about the industry standards that apply to this type of selection
criteria.
Mr. Vorametsanti stated that program managers have experience in reviewing projects and have a
record of how much designing should cost along with the costs for construction management and
environmental assessments.
Mayor Matsumoto had several questions. "What was omitted? What is the estimated cost? What
is our cost? She stated that the Council normally receive an estimated engineer's cost on all reports.
She asked if there was an urgency to this project given the unknown cost and only one responsive
bid. She expressed her dissatisfaction with the bid package and suggested going out for additional
bids.
Councilman Garbarino asked about the current state of corrosion just beginning, moderate, severe?
Plant Superintendent Schumacker stated that in 2013 a full metals corrosion assessment was
completed and used to prioritize projects. The projects were ranked based on their condition i.e.,
severe, moderate and light. He emphasized that the item presented to Council was only to get the
contractors in place to start the actual work of the re -coating.
Mr. Vorametsanti stated that the proposed contract was only for the design of the project and the
$600,000 (budget of $758,000) will carry for more than three years.
Councilman Addiego voiced his concern that a project delay could be costly and the uncertainty of
receiving a more competitive bid.
Mayor Matsumoto stated her concern with the lack of comparison in the bid package and her desire
for a re -bid.
REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING DECEMBER 12, 2018
MINUTES PAGE 6
City Manager Futrell speculated that additional firms did not bid because they had too much work
already given the robust economy. He stated that design contracts never have an engineering
estimate; they are typically about 10% of the project cost.
Mr. Vorametsanti stated that this project is not an emergency project and he emphasized that EKI
had the experience and qualifications necessary to complete the project.
Councilman Nagales stated his concerns about the project.
Mr. Vorametsanti stated that Water Treatment Plants came online in the early 50's all at about the
same time because of the Clean Water Act. They mature and run out their useful life at about the
same time also. Grant funding for the improvements of these plants also come in about the same
time and therefore the professionals in this field are busy all at the same time because of that. He
stated that every plant is undergoing a renovation right at about the same time.
5a. Resolution approving a consulting services agreement with EKI Environment & Water, Inc.
of Burlingame, California for the Water Quality Control Plant, Plant -Wide Coating and
Corrosion Protection Project (Project No. ssl307) in an amount not to exceed $659,600,
authorizing the City Manager to execute the agreement, and authorizing a total budget of
$758,540.

No: Councilmember Nicolas, Councilmember Nagales and Mayor Matsumoto
6. Report regarding a resolution authorizing the acceptance of $170,000 in grant funding from
the Silicon Valley Community Foundation for the fourth year of the Big Lift Little Steps
Preschool at the Community Learning Center, and amending the Parks and Recreation
Department's Fiscal Year 2018-19 Operating Budget pursuant to budget amendment
#19.032. (Sharon Ranals, Director of Parks and Recreation)
Director of Parks and Recreation, Sharon Ranals introduced Recreation Manager, Angela Duldulao
and Childcare Supervisor, Laura Armanino.
Director Ranals stated that the grant would support the City's fourth year for the Big Lift Little
Steps Preschool, which is located at the Community Learning Center. She indicated that "The Big
Lift", is a collaborative project led by three agencies: the Silicon Valley Community Foundation,
the San Mateo Office of Education, and the County of San Mateo. The goal of the program is to
close the achievement gap and improve the reading scores for children by the time they reach the
third grade. The numerical goal is to increase the percentage of third grade children reading
proficiently to 80% by 2020.
She indicated that the grant required a school district to be the lead agency so the City was co -leads
with the South San Francisco Unified School District along with the Peninsula Family Service and
the Institute for Human & Social Development, known as Headstart. Each partner agency had a
separate contract with the funder and each agency applied their funding differently depending on

the nature of their operation. The City used its funding to provide 20 new licensed preschool spaces.
The Park & Recreation Department administers this program similarly to other licensed preschools
Westborough and Siebecker. Families that are eligible for the program qualify under HUD's income
ceilings and a sliding scale based on their ability to pay the tuition. The fees for the program are
aligned with the city's other preschools, which is $630.00 a month for full time care.
Director Ranals stated that funding has been to coincide with the city's fiscal year resulting in 10
months of funding with a cash match component for all of the agencies that participate. The cash
match is $20,000 and the in-kind is about $45,000. The Silicon Valley Foundation is working
tirelessly to find alternative funding solutions to offset the loss of federal funding, which take the
place of the federal funding which would allow the City to continue to operate this program. If no
funding is available, staff will bring back this project for Council direction.
Mayor Matsumoto stated her support of the program and inquired about the gap funding cost.
Director Ranals stated that the current gap is about $20,000.00, a modest subsidy on the City's part.
Mayor Matsumoto commented that the premise of the Big Lift was to have children learn to read
before 3rd grade. Supervisor Pine emphasized the importance of the Big Lift during his State of the
County when he said, "Before 3 you learn to read, after 3 you read to learn." Mayor Matsumoto
informed Council of conversations with Supervisor Groom regarding future funding.
Child Care Supervisor Armanino stated that the Big Lift is very interested in keeping the City as a
partner because South San Francisco is the only participating city in the County.
Councilmember Nagales inquired about enrolling additional families with the limited funding
available.
Director Ranals stated that the square footage of the facility limits the number of children enrolled.
Licensing has specific square footage requirements and at this time they are to add additional
students to the Community Learning Center classroom.
6a. Resolution No. 200-2018 authorizing the acceptance of $170,000 in grant funding from the
Silicon Valley Community Foundation for the fourth year of the Big Lift Little Steps
Preschool at the Community Learning Center, and amending the Parks and Recreation

State Water Board Revolving Loan Fund commonly known as the SRF loan. He stated that staff has
been in the process of securing financing for a little over a year and a half to fund the Wet Weather
and Digester Improvement Project; construction began October 2018 and is estimated to be
completed in four years. The total amount is $53.4 million dollars. The City qualified for a $4
million dollar principal loan forgiveness because portions of the project will have energy savings
components, which will result in a yearly savings of approximately $200,000.00 on electrical and
operating costs. The City will be able to produce more of its own electricity from the gasses from
the digester.
The project term of this loan is 20 years at 1.8% interest rate. The City is currently in year two of
the five-year sewer rate plan. The total construction costs is about $61 million dollars.
Mayor Matsumoto inquired if the City would be paying the City of San Bruno's share of funding.

8. A report regarding a resolution approving a Declaration of Shelter Crisis pursuant to the
California Homeless Emergency Aid Program pursuant to SB 850 and the 2018-2019
Budget Act (Chapter 48, Statutes of 2018). (Eliza Manchester, Special Projects Manager)
Special Projects Manager, Eliza Manchester presented the report and provided an overview of
HEAP (Home Energy Assistance Program). HEAP is a one-time block grant funding source
authorized through Senate Bill 850. There are $4.9 million dollars available to San Mateo County.
The HEAP grant requires there to be a thousand homeless people within the COC or Continuum of
Care. We meet that requirement by factoring in the County's homeless count of 1254. The City
would have to declare this shelter crisis by December 28 in order for the Samaritan House to be able
to apply for the RFP to receive funding for this grant. Staff recommended that the declaration be
limited to the geographical location of the Safe Harbor Shelter - Samaritan House.
Mayor Matsumoto asked for clarification of how the Safe Harbor program works.

Angie Rodriguez with Samaritan House stated that that they are the North County's only shelter
with 90 beds, which are usually at capacity. She indicated that the proposed funding would allow
them to add 15 additional beds.
Mayor Matsumoto inquired about programs that allow clients to stay for a 30-40 day stay and if the
additional beds would be available to these clients.
Ms. Rodriguez stated that they have 90 emergency shelter beds, five medical beds, five beds
designated for behavioral health clients with the remainder designated as emergency shelter beds.
There are a few eligibility requirements with the goal of permanent housing.
Mayor Matsumoto stated her concern with the City's shelter crisis and the need to care for the
homeless in our City.
Ms. Rodriguez explained that the process for counting the homeless population has changed. Also,
as of January 6th, to identify a resident of the City or even of the County, they must provide a last
know permanent address with some sort of paper documentation, ID or verification from a City
official or a case manager. That is the process currently used to get the homeless count for South
San Francisco.
Mayor Matsumoto inquired if clients can use the address from Safe Harbor as a permanent
addressed. Ms. Rodriguez stated that it would not be possible.
Councilman Addiego commented on the Mayor's discussion validating that some homeless are
habitual problems for the City resulting in a great deal of City resources. He reiterated his support
for Safe Harbor.
8a. Resolution No. 2020-2018 approving a Declaration of Shelter Crisis pursuant to the

14. Report regarding an Ordinance adopting a Development Agreement Amendment with Miller
Cypress SSF, LLC for the development of a seven- to eight -story multi -family residential
project with 195 units at 405 Cypress Avenue, 204, 208, 212/214, and 216 Miller Avenue
("Cadence Phase 2") (Adena Friedman, Senior Planner)
Mayor Matsumoto stated that she pulled this item because in the past she voted NO and wanted to
state her support for the project because it supports her efforts for affordable housing. She indicated
that the project was 12 for -sale condominiums, which carried a BMR equivalent to 20% of
affordable condominiums. In lieu, the City will get 195 market rate apartments. She stated that the
parking lots are going to go away. She requested clarification on the number of units the City would
obtain if losing 12 for sale condominiums in a project.
City Manager Futrell and Assistant City Attorney Mattas clarified that the project would not take
away a public parking lot. The small lot on the corner of Cypress and Miller was originally a yard
for office space.
Councilmember Addiego inquired about assigned parking for the units.
Mayor Matsumoto indicated that page 11 stated, "unbundled/separately priced parking is part of the
rental price of the resident" and Council was under the impression that it was guest parking.
Applicant Drew Hudacek with Sares Regis stated that all of the parking between phase 1 and 2
would be adequate for the sum total of the units. Phase 1 tenants would use the parking area on the
corner of Miller & Cypress. At the completion of phase 2 they will accommodate the parking for all
of the units for both phases. He indicated that they usually have assigned spaces and "floating
spaces" for residents.
Councilmember Addiego commented on the need to explore how the construction affected
residents' use of the roadways and find alternate solutions to lessen the impact of Phase 2.
Mr. Hudacek indicated that the traffic disruption was a significant issue caused by flooding of the
intersection and the lack of storm drain along Miller Avenue.
Councilmember Nagales inquired on possible solutions to address traffic delays at the construction
site.
REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING DECEMBER 12, 2018
MINUTES PAGE 11
Mr. Hudacek stated that one of the conditions of approval was to work with the City Traffic
Coordinator and the Public Works Department to develop and implement a traffic plan to their
satisfaction. They will also work more robustly and aggressively with the contractor for the
completion of the Cadence Phase 1 project and address traffic control measures as they arise for
Cadence Phase 2.
Vice Mayor Garbarino requested that Council receive a copy of the completed plans.
Mayor Matsumoto inquired about the Local Hire Program and payment of standard wages with a
total value cost of $24 million. She stated that as a former Labor Compliance Officer she supports
hiring local employees. The Program states, "subcontractors request local project workers from
union with priority for workers living in South San Francisco, workers living in San Mateo County,
workers living in northern California, and workers living in other residences." She inquired about
the oversight process because it is critical that the City have a process in place. She requested a
breakdown of the number of people hired with their city of residency.
Mr. Hudacek stated that they work hand in hand with labor both the general building trades and the
carpenters' union to address the residency requirement and assist with priority to workers that reside
in South San Francisco. He will work with City staff and the City Manager to file a report on a
regular basis- quarterly or yearly for Council.
City Manager Futrell stated that the Development Agreement with the City requires an annual
report with the requested level of detail, which can become the report provided to Council.
Mayor Matsumoto requested a quarterly report to Council with the information requested.
Assistant City Attorney Mattas stated that the Development Agreement (DA) does require the
contractor to implement these procedures and includes a reporting requirement from the general
contractors as to compliance with the procedures set forth. He indicated that Council could receive a
summary of all of the reports submitted during the course of the year.
Mayor Matsumoto stated that her request was for certified payroll records that provide a name, a job
class and the worker's city of residency. The request of documents is to verify that employees
receive prevailing wages and the State Industrial hourly rate.
Assistant City Attorney Mattas stated that the DA requires that Sares Regis receive periodic reports
with employee information. He indicated that Council might request from Sares Regis a copy of the
reports they receive. Mr. Hudacek agreed.
