Gateway Childcare Center Design - Precise Plan for an 8,300 square foot child

City of South San Francisco
P02-0059
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the Redevelopment Agency approve Precise Plan P02-0059 based on
the attached findings and subject to the attached conditions of approval.
BACKGROUND:
In 1999, the City issued Tax Allocation Bonds in the amount of $28 million dollars for Gateway
refinancing and related projects. Four million dollars of these funds were set aside for relocation of
the CalTrain Station and construction of a childcare facility.
In June 2000, the Redevelopment Agency approved a Precise Plan for Boston Properties to
construct two office buildings and a parking garage at 611-681 Gateway Boulevard. As part of that
approval, Boston Properties agreed to provide to the City an existing landscape strip located along
Gateway Boulevard, just south of 601 Gateway Boulevard, for a childcare facility.
In June 2002, the Board authorized staff to retain an architectural consultant team to design a
childcare facility on the roughly 1.2 acre site.
DISCUSSION:
Proposal - Staff has been working closely with both the project architect and the YMCA staff to
design a childcare facility on the subject site. Initially it was anticipated that the site would
accommodate a facility for approximately 60-80 children. However, through cooperative efforts of
Staff Report
To: Redevelopment Agency
RE: Gateway Childcare Facility P02-0059
Date: September 11, 2002
Page 2
the YMCA staff, the project architects and city staff, the current layout of the facility is estimated to
accommodate 100-120 children under the age of 5, with 50% of those spaces targeted to infants
(under 18 mos.) The facility would be owned by the City and operated by the YMCA. The
proposed project includes an approximately 8,300 sq. ft. building, approximately 5,000 sq. ft. of
fenced outdoor play area, and additional landscape enhancements within the remaining boundaries
of the site.
Design -The building consists of two wings, one housing three infant rooms and the other
containing the toddler and preschool areas, all of which are visually and physically connected with
the outdoor play area. The building is to be of wood frame construction with a cement plaster
finish. The dominant architectural feature is a large curved metal roof which provides a substantial
overhang over the playground area, allowing for protected outdoor use during inclement weather.
The site includes a very significant amount of open space surrounding the confines of the childcare
facility. A prominent new landscape berm is proposed along the Gateway frontage which serves to
both obscure direct views into the childcare facility from the street and to also provide a playful
landscape feature.
The Design Review Board discussed the project at its August 20th meeting. While generally
pleased with the design the board had the following comments which have been incorporated into
the Proposed Conditions of Approval:
1. The color scheme of the building needs additional refinement. Consider brighter accent
colors. Also tie in playground fence color with overall color scheme.
2. Consider redesigning the windows or modifying panel detailing to add interest to western
elevation.
3. Double-check landscape plan to ensure that ginkgo biloba trees will survive given the high
water table and salty condition of the soil.
4. Ensure that the design of the play areas meet ADA and CPSC.
The project was also referred to the Gateway Architectural Controls Committee which has review
authority over all new structures and signs within the Gateway area. The Committee has provided
the attached letter noting its approval of the design.
Zoning Consistency-
Use - While the Gateway Specific Plan District does not expressly call out "childcare" as a
permitted use in the zone district, SSFMC Section 20.57.200 (h) allows for "Other uses similar
to permitted uses" on the site. In addition to the standard primary use types permitted in the
Gateway area, including office, research and development, hotels and light industrial uses,
other permitted uses include various types of ancillary uses including retail shops, convenience
stores, personal service establishments, athletic clubs, banks, etc., designed to serve the primary

RE: Gateway Childcare Facility P02-0059
Date: September 11, 2002
Page 3
uses within the area. As childcare facilities serve a similar purpose in providing needed
services within a business park, the use is found to be consistent with SSFMC Section
20.57.200 (h).
General Development Standards - The proposed project meets the minimum development
standards of the Gateway Specific Plan District as shown below:
DEVELOPMENT STANDARDS
Gateway Requirements Proposed Project
Floor Area Ratio 1.25 maximum .16
Height 250 feet maximum 17.5 feet
Lot Coverage 50% maximum 16%
Setbacks Building - 40 min. from any street 40 ft. from Gateway
Parking 1 per 5 children 20
General Plan/Redevelopment Plan
The General Plan designates the Gateway area as Business Commercial, a category encompassing
business and professional offices, visitor services, retail and related services. The proposed
childcare facility is consistent with this designation. In addition, the use is consistent with General
Plan Policy 2-1-12 which seeks to promote childcare centers in all land use districts and with Policy
6-1-10 which encourages the establishment of"industry clusters" in the city by providing common
services, including childcare, to multiple businesses in a common setting.
The subject site is presently encumbered by a private landscape easement. The easement was
required by the City in order to provide a mechanism that would permit the funding of the
landscape improvements by the Gateway Assessment District bonds, which are still being paid by
the various property owners within the district. As a condition of approval, this easement must be
vacated prior to issuance of any building permits on the site. Staff is currently pursuing this
abandonment with Boston Properties. Subject to deletion of this easement, the proposed use at this
site is consistent with both the Owner Participation Agreement (OPA) and the redevelopment plan.
Environmental Determination
In June 2000, the Redevelopment Agency certified Mitigated Negative Declaration MND-00-020
for the Boston Properties development which included analysis of development of a single story
retail facility on this site. Staffhas determined that this previous environmental analysis which
details potential impacts and includes mitigation measures to reduce identified impacts to a less
Staff Report
To: Redevelopment Agency
RE: Gateway Childcare Facility P02-0059
Date: September 11, 2002
Page 4
than significant level, adequately addresses the potential impacts of this project and that no
additional environmental analysis is necessary. The proposed project will be required to comply
with all mitigation measures.
Next Steps - Subject to the Redevelopment Agency's endorsement of the project design, the
architectural team will continue to refine project plans and cost estimates over the next several
months. It is anticipated that the project should be out to bid in February/March. Subsequently, the
recommended bid will be forwarded to the Board for acceptance. Additionally, staff will be
working with the YMCA on a lease and maintenance agreement that will be forwarded to the Board
for review and approval. The targeted date for project completion is December 22, 2003, which
would allow the facility to open in January 2004.
CONCLUSION:
The proposed project is consistent with all the relevant planning related documents including the
East of 101 Area Plan, the Gateway Specific Plan District requirements, the Redevelopment Plan
and the Owner Participation Agreement. Therefore, based on the attached findings and subject to
the attached conditions of approval, staff recommends that the Redevelopment Agency approve
P02-0059.

PROPOSED FINDINGS OF APPROVAL
P02-0059
(September 11, 2002 Redevelopment Agency Meeting)
As required by the "Precise Plan Procedure for Implementation of Specific Plan" (SSFMC Section
20.57.590), the following findings are made in support of the Precise Plan for an 8,300 square foot child
care facility with related playground and site improvements within an existing landscape easement on
Lot 1 (west side of Gateway Boulevard, north of Corporate Drive) at 599 Gateway Boulevard, in the
Gateway Specific Plan District Zone. These findings are based on public testimony and materials
submitted to the South San Francisco Redevelopment Agency which include, but are not limited to:
plans dated August 9, 2002 prepared by StarkweatherBondy Architecture; minutes of the August 20,
2002 Design Review Board meeting; Redevelopment Agency staff report dated September 11, 2002;
and public testimony received at the Redevelopment Agency hearing of September 11, 2002.
The proposed project is consistent with the City's General Plan which designates this site
"Business Commercial", a category encompassing business and professional offices, visitor
services, retail and related services. The proposed childcare facility is consistent with this
designation. In addition, the use is consistent with General Plan Policy 2-I-12 which seeks to
promote childcare centers in all land use districts and with Policy 6-1-10 which encourages the
establishment of "industry clusters" in the city by providing common services, including
childcare, to multiple businesses in a common setting.
The proposed project is compatible with the intent and purpose of the Gateway Specific Plan.
The plan calls for the coordinated development of property in the District. While the Gateway
Specific Plan District does not expressly call out "childcare" as a permitted use in the zone
district, SSFMC Section 20.57.200 (h) allows for "Other uses similar to permitted uses" on the
site. In addition to the standard primary use types permitted in the Gateway area, including
office, research and development, hotels and light industrial uses, other permitted uses include
various types of ancillary uses including retail shops, convenience stores, personal service
establishments, athletic clubs, banks, etc., designed to serve the primary uses within the area.
As childcare facilities serve a similar purpose in providing needed services within a business
park, the use is found to be consistent with SSFMC Section 20.57.200 (h).
3. The proposed project meets all development standards of the Gateway Specific Plan District.
Subject to deletion of the existing landscape easement which presently encumbers the site, the
proposed use at this site is consistent with both the Owner Participation Agreement (OPA) and
the redevelopment plan. The proposed project is consistent with the redevelopment plan and
with the Owner Participation Agreement. Service uses ancillary to office development, such as
childcare, are consistent with both the OPA and the Redevelopment Plan.
In June 2000, the Redevelopment Agency certified Mitigated Negative Declaration MND-00-
020 for the Boston Properties development which included analysis of development of a single
story retail facility on this site. This previous environmental analysis which details potential
impacts and includes mitigation measures to reduce identified impacts to a less than significant
level, adequately addresses the potential impacts of this project; no additional environmental
analysis is necessary. The proposed project will be required to comply with all mitigation
measures.
PROPOSED CONDITIONS OF APPROVAL
P02-0059
(September 11, 2002 Redevelopment Agency Meeting)
Ae
o
Planning Division requirements shall be as follow:
The project shall be constructed substantially as indicated on the attached plans dated
August 9, 2002, prepared by StarkweatherBondy Architecture, except as otherwise modified
by the following conditions:
Plans shall be modified to address the following comments noted by the City's Design
Review Board:
The color scheme of the building needs additional refinement. Consider brighter
accent colors. Also tie in playground fence color with overall color scheme.
Consider redesigning the windows or modifying panel detailing to add interest to
western elevation.
Double-check landscape plan to ensure that ginkgo biloba trees will survive given
the high water table and salty condition of the soil.
Ensure that the design of the play areas meet ADA and CPSC.
The applicant/property owner shall participate in the shuttle service program currently

BART Stations and is available to all employees in the project area. The applicant shall
cooperate with the City in the development/implementation of a regional shuttle service if
such is considered by the City.
The applicant shall comply with all mitigation measures outlined in Mitigated Negative
Declaration MND-00-020.
Prior to issuance of any occupancy permits, the applicant shall submit a Transportation
Demand Management (TDM) plan for review and approval by the Chief Planner and Chief
of Police.
Any signs shall require a separate permit.
Final landscape and irrigation plans shall be submitted for staff review and approval prior to
submittal for a building permit.
The applicant shall comply with all Standard Conditions of Approval.
(Planning Division Contact: Susy Kalkin (650) 877-8535)
B. Engineering Division requirements shall be as follow:
1. The applicant shall comply with the applicable conditions of the Engineering Division's
"Standard Conditions for Commercial and Industrial Developments", consisting of 5 pages.
Proposed Conditions of Approval
P02-0059 (Gateway Childcare)
September 11, 2002

o
These conditions are contained in the Engineering Division's "Standard Conditions for
Subdivisions and Private Developments" booklet, dated January 1998.
As required by City Ordinance, new storm water pollution control devices and filters shall
be installed within the site drainage system, as necessary to prevent pollutants deposited
within the site from entering the public storm drainage system. Plans for these facilities
shall be designed by the project's civil engineer and submitted to the City's Engineering and
Water Quality Control Divisions for review and approval.
The property on which the childcare facility is proposed to be constructed is burdened by a
private landscape easement. The easement was required by the City in order to provide a
mechanism that would permit the funding of the landscape improvements by the Gateway
Assessment District bonds, which are still being paid by the various property owners within
the district. The applicant shall submit documentation that the portion of the landscape
easement on which the childcare center is to be constructed has been vacated by its
"owners".
The drop-off curb cutout appears only useful for vehicles leaving the site. We recommend
that additional drop-off spaces (or passenger loading zones) be provided within the adjacent
parking lot for use by parents who work at the adjacent offices. The drop-off area on the
exit driveway should be painted white and posted as a passenger-loading zone, to keep
vehicles from parking in these spaces.
EAST OF 101 TRAFFIC IMPACT FEES
Prior to the issuance of a Building Permit for the proposed project, the applicant shall pay
the East of 101 Traffic Impact fee, as adopted by the City Council at their meeting of
September 26, 2001.
Fee Calculation (as of August 2002)
8,300 SF gsf Commercial building @ $6.25 per each square foot (this amount is subject to
increases due to inflation and increases resulting from the need for additional traffic
improvements, as approved by the City Council) = $ 51,875
(Note: Staffis in the process of preparing an update of the East of 101 Traffic Impact Fees
for City Council consideration, which includes a recommendation to eliminate traffic impact
fees for childcare facilities in the East of 101 Area.)
SEWER SYSTEM CAPACITY STUDY AND IMPROVEMENT FEE
The City of South San Francisco has identified the need to investigate the condition and
capacity of the sewer system within the East of 101 area, downstream of the proposed
Proposed Conditions of Approval
P02-0059 (Gateway Childcare)
September 11, 2002
Page 3 of 5
childcare development. Much of the existing sewer collection system within the East of 101
area was originally designed many years ago to accommodate warehouse and industrial use
and is now proposed to accommodate uses, such as offices and biotech facilities, with a
much greater sewage flow. These additional flows, plus groundwater infiltration into the
existing sewers, due to ground settlement and the age of the system, have resulted in
pumping and collection capacity constraints. A study and flow model is proposed to analyze
the problem and recommend solutions and improvements.
The applicant shall financially participate in evaluating the existing components and
projected flow rates of the City of South San Francisco's existing east of 101 sanitary sewer
collection system, at the direction of the City Engineer. If additional capacity is needed, the
applicant agrees to pay their fair share of the cost of improvements to the down-stream
pumping and gravity sewer collection facilities. The applicant also agrees, that when the
City of South San Francisco develops a sewer collection model which will identify,
prioritize and correct said problems and will determine the location of capacity restrictions
and other structural problems within the collection facilities, the applicant agrees to pay its
fair share contribution to the cost of the model and any needed infrastructure improvements,
in accordance with a schedule established by the City's Department of Public Works,
pursuant to a resolution of the South San Francisco City Council. The fee is estimated to be
a minimum of a $1.23 per square foot of new building area, in 2002 dollars. For the
proposed project, if paid this year, the fee would beat least: 8,300 SF times $1.23 =
$10,209. The sewer contribution shall be due and payable prior to receiving a building
permit for the proposed building. The fee will be subject to periodic increases, as approved
by the City Council.
7. OYSTER POINT OVERPASS FEE
The Oyster Point Overpass Fee was pre-paid by the original developer for a specified
amount of traffic. This project will not trigger additional payment, but future development
within the area will likely do so.
(Engineering Division contact: Richard Harmon (650) 829-6652)
C. Police Department requirements shall be as follow:
1. Standard Conditions
The developer shall comply with the applicable requirements of Chapter 15.48 of the Municipal
Code, "Minimum Building Security Standards" Ordinance, specifically, "Lighting".
a. Lighting:

RECEIVED
PLANNING
Dear Susy:
This letter serves to inform the City of South San Francisco that the Architectural
Control Committee of the Gateway Property Owners' Association, in accordance
with Section 6.2 of the Association Bylaws, has approved the proposed childcare
center plans prepared by StarkweatherBondy and dated August 9, 2002.
We are satisfied that the following issues have been considered and addressed as
follows:
1. The combination of the "caterpillar" landscaped berm and mesh fence will
prevent strangers from directly observing individual children from the sidewalk.
2. The play areas to the south and outside of the fenced-in area are not part of the
daily childcare center operation. Rather, those areas are for public use.
3. The color of the roof is closer to a metallic grey rather than a metallic blue.
4. Signage and color of the exterior wall are still under design.
If you should have any questions, please feel free to contact me.

HINES HOLDINGS, INC.
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council, by motion, accept the offer of dedication for a sanitary
sewer easement and a storm drain easement as shown on Parcel Map 00-060.
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION:
The South San Francisco Redevelopment Agency, on September 26, 2001, approved a modified
Precise Plan for the southwesterly portion of the Bay West Cove site. This modified plan requires
the relocation of an existing storm drain culvert and a sanitary sewer force main around the footprint
of one of the proposed buildings at the site. The subject map dedicates the easement that is
necessary to relocate these facilities. To complete the process, the applicant will have to request that
the City abandon or quitclaim the portion of our existing easement that will be under the new
building prior to receiving a building permit for the structure.
The recommended motion will accept the easement dedication as offered by the subdivider on the
map. The easement to be dedicated is highlighted on the attached copy of the parcel map.

Stormwater Management Program Rate Structure for FY 2002-2003
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council conduct a Public Heating and adopt a resolution establishing
Stormwater Management Program charges for the 2002-2003 fiscal year, It is also recommended
that Council adopt the Finance Director's Report of FY 2002-2003 Stormwater Management Service
Fees.
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION:
Introduction
The 2002-2003 Fiscal Year marks the tenth year of South San Francisco's participation in the
Stormwater Pollution Prevention Program mandated by Federal and State Governments. The current
program fee structure was adopted by Council on July 19, 1995, and represents an equitable
distribution of costs taking into consideration the size and use of the parcel, and the estimated
amount of stormwater runoff generated by the parcel. This fee calculation strategy is similar to the
process used by other stormwater management programs, including the San Mateo County General
Program. By direction of the City Council, stormwater program charges are to be adjusted so as not
to exceed actual program expenses. The proposed stormwater program charges herein were
developed in response to Council's direction and are the same charges as the prior year.
Regulations
The Environmental Protection Agency, under amendments to the 1987 Clean Water Act, imposed
regulations that mandated local government to control and reduce stormwater pollution runoff. The
framework for regulating stormwater discharges is through a National Pollution Discharge
Elimination System Permit (NPDES). The permit is implemented and enforced by the State Water
Resources Control Board through its regional agency.

South San Francisco, in cooperation with the other jurisdictions in San Mateo County, jointly
reapplied for their Municipal Stormwater NPDES Permit on March 18, 1998.
A requirement of the NPDES permit was the development of a five-year action plan known as the
Stormwater Management Plan. The Plan covers the period from July 1998 through June 2003 to
prevent and control stormwater pollution in San Mateo County. STOPPP's initial Stormwater
Management Plan covered the previous five-year period. The Stormwater Management Plan
(SWMP) contains two-year work plans with budgets that describe in more detail how the General
Program's portion of the five-year SWMP will be completed. The two-year work plans and budgets
will be updated annually to include the subsequent fiscal year and submitted to the San Francisco
Bay Regional Water Quality Control Board (Regional Board) each March.
The SWMP also contains detailed performance standards that identify what each of the member
agencies is committed to do to control stormwater pollutants from the storm drains and conveyance
systems that it owns and/or operates. STOPPP will review these performance standards every two
years and revise them as needed. New and modified performance standards will be incorporated
following the approval process described in the reissued NPDES permit.
Examples of General Program responsibilities include:
· Coordinating the overall program efforts;
· Submitting consolidated quarterly, semi-annually, and annual reports to the Regional Water
Quality Control Board;
· Develop and sponsor training workshops;
· Develop educational/informational materials for dissemination within jurisdictions.
Examples of City Specific Program activities include:
· Street sweeping, storm drain cleaning, and other maintenance-related activities that may have an
impact on stormwater quality;
· To minimize or eliminate potential stormwater pollution sources at commercial and industrial
facilities through inspection and educational outreach activities, and to effectively prohibit illicit
discharges (such as oil, paint, or soapy washwater) to the municipalities' storm drain systems;
· Educating the public about the differences between the sanitary sewer and storm drain systems
and the causes of stormwater pollution in order to encourage residents to adopt less polluting and
more environmentally beneficial practices;

· Prohibiting non-stormwater discharges from construction sites, reducing stormwater pollutant
discharges from new development and construction activities to the maximum extent practicable,
and requiring compliance with stormwater Best Management Practices (BMP's) and
erosion/sedimentation control at construction sites;
· Identifying effective BMP's and developing tools and analyzing information needed to identify
and help solve creek drainage basin-specific water quality and beneficial use impairment
problems.
Fiscal Year 2001-2002 Program Accomplishments
Some of South San Francisco's 2001-2002 Program accomplishments are listed below:
· Responded to 35 various spills or illicit discharges (i.e. paint, oil, fuel, or concrete materials) that
could enter into the storm drains;
· Reviewed several building and construction plans and prepared written comments requesting
incorporation of stormwater pollution prevention measures and post construction measures;
· S SF Staff participated with the San Mateo Countywide Stormwater Program in staffing the booth
at the San Mateo County Fair which was held August 2001;
· On September 15, 2001, the City of South San Francisco's Stormwater Program along with the
City of South San Francisco beautification committee co-sponsored a creek clean-Up Event at a
new location, comer of Littlefield and Utah Avenues. Approximately forty people from our
community, including staff, for two hours picked up trash and debris that would wind up in the
bay. This was a low turnout due to the event of September 1 lth.
· On April 22, 2002, the Environmental Staff participated in the Bay area Earth Day Event. Staff
held a Mercury Thermometer Exchange at the Municipal Services Building. From 11: am to 2:
pm staff exchanged approximately 125 mercury for a NexTemp Personal Reusable Oral
thermometer. Staff plans to hold an event at Genentech sometime in July or August 2002.
· The Office of Environmental Compliance is continuing its School Outreach Program to the 34th
grade students.

Chestnut Avenue New Right Turn Lane onto E1 Camino Real
Project No. 51-13231-0005 (TR-00-1), Bid No. 2298
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council, by motion, accept the E1 Camino Real/Chestnut Avenue
Reconstruction project as complete in accordance with the plans and specifications.
BACKGROUND:
Westbound Chestnut Avenue at E1 Camino Real has four lanes. Two left turn only lanes, one
through lane and one through and fight turn lane. Some vehicles go straight in the outside lane and
tend to block the vehicles that want to make a right turn. Traffic in the outside lane has, on occasion,
backed up into Antoinette Lane.
As a mitigation item for the new Costco facility, the southbound lanes on E1 Camino Real will need
to increase the one left turn lane onto Chestnut Avenue to two lanes. This can be done without
obtaining new property. The existing northbound parking lane will be removed to accomodate the
new left turn lane.
This project increased the number of westbound lanes on Chestnut Avenue from four to five.
Additional property and easements had to be obtained to add the new lane. There are now two left
turn only lanes; two through traffic lanes and one right turn only lane. This has improved the right
turn traffic. The median island was reduced to accommodate the new lane and additional property
was acquired from Cecchini Realty and BART. The revocable permit with the City and County of
San Francisco Water Department was increased.
The project has been inspected by City staff and is complete in accordance with the plans and
specifications. Acceptance of the project will provide authorization for staff to file a Notice of
Completion and to release the payment performance bond and ten percent retention at the end of the
thirty day lien period.

Resolution Approving Second Joint Powers Authority (JPA)Amendment
Establishing SAMCAT: The San Mateo County Telecommunications and
Franchise Negotiation Authority
RECOMMENDATION:
It is recommended that the City Council approve the attached resolution approving the
second Joint Powers Authority (JPA) amendment establishing the San Mateo County
Telecommunications and Franchise Negotiation Authority (SAMCAT).
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION:
In June 1989, five agencies in San Mateo County formed a Joint Powers Authority (JPA)
known as the San Mateo County Cable TV Authority (SAMCAT). SAMCAT's purpose
was to aggregate the needs and negotiating power of these agencies to create a model Cable
TV franchise that would provide better terms than these agencies had received in the past.
The SAMCAT JPA was formed and the original member agencies did indeed obtain much
better Cable TV franchise terms than in the prior franchise.
In 1994 and again in 1996 further amendments were made to the SAMCAT JPA document.
The most significant of these occurred in November 1996, when the SAMCAT JPA was
amended to allow SAMCAT to work on issues and the development of model franchise
documents that included various forms of telecommunications including fiber optic,
wireless, microwave and other telecom services. Interest in SAMCAT's work in these areas
resulted in the growth of the group from 8 members in 1996 to 19 member agencies today.

Resolution Approving Second JPA Amendment Establishing SAMCAT

PG&E Request For New Franchises
Recently, cities in California were approached by representatives from PG&E requesting
franchises for two new companies that PG&E plans to establish as part of their plan to
reorganize and emerge from bankruptcy. These new firms would handle the existing Gas
and Electricity Transmission systems and are called the "G-Trans" (Gas Transmission) and
"E-Trans" (Electric Transmission) companies or the "newcos" for short. Some or all of the
operations of the newcos would be regulated by the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission
(FERC) instead of the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC). The existing PG&E
firm would continue to exist and would handle distribution of Gas and Electricity.
A competing plan of bankruptcy reorganization for PG&E has been offered by the
California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC). The cPUC plan calls for PG&E to
continue to operate both the Gas and Electric transmission and distribution systems and to
continue to be subject to regulation by the CPUC (as is the case today). Both plans are
subject to review by the Bankruptcy Judge and it is not clear at this point which plan will be
adopted and approved.
Role Of SAMCAT & League Of California Cities
To move the process of developing the new franchises along in San Mateo County, PG&E
representatives suggested that SAMCAT work on model franchises for the new G-Trans and
E-Trans firms. This idea was discussed by the San Mateo City/County Managers
Association and the SAMCAT Board of Directors. Both groups agreed that this would be a
good approach as SAMCAT has prior experience in developing model franchises and it
includes all but two cities in the county at this point.
At the same time, it was also felt that many smaller cities in California would not have the
resources to adequately review and negotiate the two "newco" franchises. SAMCAT
approached the League of California Cities and suggested that they look into this area as
well. The result is that the League is now meeting with PG&E and exploring if they should
work on developing a framework for the two franchises and perhaps a model franchise
document itself.
In light of past experience working as a team in San Mateo County and getting better
franchise terms as a result, it is recommended that the agencies in San Mateo County take

advantage of the opportunity to work together jointly. This requires amending the existing
SAMCAT JPA document so that SAMCAT can take the League's final product in this area
and tailor it to the unique needs of San Mateo County agencies.
With that in mind, the attached second JPA amendment of SAMCAT was developed. It
adds the duty of negotiating for model franchises with public utilities (such as PG&E) to
SAMCAT's list of potential duties. Once adopted by 2/3 of the SAMCAT member
agencies, the SAMCAT Board will then be in position to work on the draft franchise
documents for the newcos that have been prepared by PG&E as well as any materials
developed in this area by the League of California Cities. As always, the consideration and
approval of any such franchises will be done by each City Council and by the Board of
Supervisors in the case of San Mateo County.

RESOLUTION TO ACCEPT $48,173 IN GRANT FUNDING FROM THE SAN
MATEO COUNTY HEALTH SERVICES AGENCY AND $80,400 IN GRANT
FUNDING FROM THE PARTNERSHIP FOR THE PUBLIC'S HEALTH FOR
THE SOUTH SAN FRANCISCO COMMUNITY PARTNERSHIP AND AMEND
THE LIBRARY DEPARTMENT'S 2002/2003 OPERATING BUDGET.
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council approve a resolution accepting $128,573.00 in revenue
to support the South San Francisco Community Partnership's Community Health Initiative
and amend the Library Department's operating budget for fiscal year 2002/2003.
BACKGROUND/DISCUS SION
The South San Francisco Community Partnership (SSFCP) is a collaborative program dedicated to
enhancing local services to meet the needs of our young children and their families. Program
partners include the City of South San Francisco, the South San Francisco Unified School District,
the San Mateo County Health Services Agency as well as local agencies, community organizations
and parents.
In 2000, the Partnership for the Public's Health (PPH) selected the SSFCP to be one of two
community based recipients in San Mateo County to receive a four year funding grant to implement a
community health initiative in partnership with San Mateo County Health Services Agency. During
the first two grant years, the SSFCP used PPH funding to build community capacity by identifying
and training community leaders to promote Partnership vision and goals in the community. The
SSFCP also worked closely with the Health Services Agency to identify health and quality of life
issues in the "Old Town" neighborhood. The Health Services Agency conducted a telephone survey
to identify needs and build community support for this health initiative. The South San Francisco
Community Partnership worked with the North Peninsula Neighborhood Services Center, to conduct
a "grassroots" door-to-door survey. Once the data was compiled from the surveys, focus groups
were convened by trained community leaders to evaluate the data, prioritize community needs and
select the top one or two issues to be addressed. The issues selected to be addressed over the next
two grant years are:

Subject: Resolution accepting $128,573 in revenue to support the South San Francisco
Community Partnership's Community Health Initiative.
Health Insurance Coveraee
In the "Old Town" community, 25% of survey respondents did not have health insurance
and close to 20% of the respondents' children did not have coverage. The SSFCP will work
with our trained community leaders to enroll "Old Town" residents into San Mateo
County's new health insurance program, "Healthy Kids." This program, to be operational
by January 2003, will cover all uninsured children ages 0-18 up to 400% of the federal
poverty level ($61,344 for a family of three), and will be funded by the Children and
Families First Commission, County funds and private dollars. In addition, we will work
with the County to enroll families in existing health insurance programs such as MediCal,
the County Well Program, and Healthy Families.
Job Connections
In the "Old Town" community, 42% of survey respondents evaluated local employment
opportunities as fair/poor. About 40% believe they need additional work skills or job
training to remain competitive in the local economy. This belief is particularly held among
Latino, young adult and female respondents. The SSFCP will work with local agencies
such as Peninsula Works, the San Mateo County Labor Council, the South San Francisco
Chamber of Commerce, the San Mateo County Community College District and the
Regional Occupational Program to better connect our community with training
opportunities and jobs.
City Council previously accepted a total of $165,000 in funding from the Partnership for the Public's
Health to support the first two years of the project plus $59,752 from the San Mateo County Health
Services Agency to support a portion of the coordinator position, the door-to-door survey, and data
analysis expenses. The combined $128,573 awarded in this third year of the grant will support the
coordinator position, office expenses and operating expenses associated with public relations, and
stipends or salary for part-time on-call community workers.
FUNDING
Grant funds received in fiscal year 2002/2003 will be used to amend the Library Department's
current budget. Grant cycles typically run for one year from time of receipt; therefore, funds not
expended at the end of fiscal year 2002/2003 will be carded over into the next fiscal year. Receipt
of these funds does not commit the City to ongoing support after the close of the funding cycle.

WHEREAS, grant funds received in fiscal year 2002-2003 will be used to amend the Library

Francisco Community Parmership's Community Health Initiative and amends the Library
Department's 2002-2003 Operating Budget (034).
I hereby certify that the foregoing Resolution was regularly introduced and adopted by the
City Council of the City of South San Francisco at a regular meeting held on the day of
,2002 by the following vote:

NOES:
ABSTAIN:

DATE: September 11, 2002
TO: Honorable Mayor and City Council
FROM: Police Department
SUBJECT: PREFERENTIAL PARKING AREAS
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that City Council adopt the attached Ordinance and Resolution to be
incorporated in the South San Francisco Municipal Code to establish preferential parking areas
around the South San Francisco BART station as determined by the Engineering Division and the
Chief of Police.
The ordinance shall also allow the Police Department the authority to take enforcement action
(parking citations) on violators. Parking violations shall include violations for no permit in the
area and for improper use of a permit. A penalty fee of $35.00 is recommended at this time.
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION
The new Bay Area Rapid Transit (BART) station located in South San Francisco will bring the
community a new commute option. Along with this new option, comes a potential parking related
challenge for the surrounding areas. With the possibility of overflow parking from the BART property,
commuters may attempt to park their vehicles in the residential areas surrounding the station, thus
creating a negative impact on the local streets and residents. Add to that, the parking fees BART plans
to implement will increase the likelihood of commuters parking on the surrounding streets. A
Preferential Parking plan containing permits for the residents in the areas, combined with parking
enforcement efforts will protect the residents and prevent the surrounding streets from serving as a
BART commuter parking area.
California Vehicle Code Section 22507(a) grants local authorities the ability to establish preferential
parking areas where residents are issued permits which exempts them from certain parking regulations.
This section enables the City to post the designated areas with time restricted parking to discourage
BART commuter parking, but allow the residents the ability to still park near their homes.
Streets to be included in the preferential area will be determined by the Engineering Division and the
Chief of Police. An estimated ¼ to ½ mile radius surrounding the BART station will be used as a
guideline to establish the size of the area. The ¼ to ½ mile is often considered a comfortable or
convenient walking distance for similar parking conditions. The area and the amount of streets included
can be extended or reduced at the discretion of the Engineering Division and the Chief of Police after the
parking situation is evaluated. The initial area will include sections of the Sunshine Gardens, Buff Buri
(Sterling Manor) and Promenade subdivisions (See Exhibit 1).
The designated area will be posted for three hour parking between the hours of 7:00 a.m. to 5:00 p.m.,
Monday through Friday, except vehicles with a South San Francisco parking permit. Signs will be

PREFERENTIAL PARKING AREAS
posted at various locations on each street to identify the area and to warn drivers of the time restriction
(See Exhibit 2). The Engineering Department and the Chief of Police may adjust locations, days and
times, as deemed necessary.
Permits shall be issued for all vehicles legally allowed to park on the streets. Commercial vehicles,
recreation vehicles and vehicles without current registration will not be issued permits. The permits will
be issued to the registered owners at no cost, and shall be administered by the Police Department.
Parking citations will be issued to those vehicles that are parked in the designated areas without a permit
for more than three hours and to those vehicles that display a permit that is not issued to that vehicle.
Additional citations may be issued each time a vehicle exceeds an additional three-hour time limit.
Each violation will have a penalty fee of $35.00. The penalty fee will be comparable to those set by
other police agencies throughout the county.
The Police Department will work with the merchants in the area to ensure their property is posted
correctly. The South San Francisco Unified School District is aware of our plans and is developing a
parking plan for E1 Camino High School.
FUNDING
The cost of funding will be taken from the General Fund and has already been incorporated in this year's
budget.
BUDGET NEEDED:
1. Parking Enforcement Officer $57,775.00
2. Police Vehicle for Parking Enforcement Officer $21,500.00
3. Maintenance on Police Vehicle per year $2,500.00

represented that he/she is eligible for a parking permit or who has
furnished false information as part of his/her application.
