2. Discuss Safety and Climate Hazards and Review the Safety Policy Framework
Eric Yurkovich provided an overview of hazards in the community including climate change hazards.
He reviewed seismic hazards and areas subject to ground shaking. Eric Yurkovich also reviewed
areas subject to flooding including infrastructure and structures. The safety element will also cover
wildfire hazards. California is also experiencing more extreme heat days and rising temperatures are
expected to increase. Increase in heat impacts humans health.
Eric Yurkovich reviewed the draft safety policy framework.
Committee comments:
Steven Yee asked if there are target areas for capital plans. Eric Yurkovich responded that
the current capital plans are not necessarily targeting areas, but more based on infrastructure
needs. Billy Gross noted the City’s Water Control plant is the most directly impacted by sea
level rise and is why the City is working with Army Corp of Engineers to identify solutions and
funding.
John Skerry asked about other risks to the City. Eric Yurkovich noted SFO is working on its
protection plan for sea level rise which will have impacts on adjacent areas. The County is
working to coordinate these projects cross jurisdictional.
Kristy Camacho asked why focus on flood and sea level rise with community assets and not
other hazards. Eric Yurkovich noted that it is a new outcome as sea level rise was not
previously considered. It could be expanded to consider other hazards as well. Kristy
Camacho asked if other transportation assets that are not under City control (BART,
CalTrain) be included. Billy Gross responded in the affirmative.
Roderick Bovee likes concept of community warehouse and response to emergencies and
would also like to make sure the community is informed of emergency response plans and
has access. Steven Yee suggested more community involvement in emergency drills.
Steven Yee asked if we are learning from wildfire events and pandemic. Eric Yurkovich
noted the State published new guidelines for wildfires to help mitigate hazards from occurring.
Billy Gross noted City learning best ways to outreach to the community and engage residents
through the pandemic.
Kristy Camacho commented on the need to coordinate with partner agencies, especially the
School District.
Pat Murray noted that each school has an emergency plan and the County has the Big 5 plan
with detailed steps to follow for emergencies. Coordinated effort between the County,
jurisdictions and school districts. She also noted that the Commission on Race and Social
Justice also working on ways to better communicate with the community. The library is taking
the lead on communication to connect residents to programs.
JulieAnn Murphy commented on need to respond to events and rebuild. In the event of a
disaster, residents will be notified of essential services and supported in rebuilding efforts.
Kristy Camacho noted need for contingency planning with different levels and scenarios at a
neighborhood level. Eric Yurkovich noted this is what a community hub could accomplish.
Kristy Camacho suggested including reference to CERT in the plan.
Rehman Baig asked about disaster recovery for businesses in addition to residents. Many
large businesses may have plans in place, but not smaller operations. Billy Gross agreed
that business needs also should be planned for.
Steven Yee asked about incentives for small business to prepare for disasters (capital
planning, tax incentives, etc.).
Kristy Camacho asked about landslide mitigation. Eric Yurkovich noted that most of hillsides
are already built out, but some are susceptible, and the plan will include policies to address
the risk.
Sophie Martin commented that there should be a policy relating to not permitting new critical
facilities be built in high hazard areas. Should prioritize policies that has effort to address
multiple hazards. Also de-prioritize areas that another organization is already addressing.
Kristy Camacho agreed to consider additional partnerships and learn from other
organizations.
Sophie Martin suggested using this current pandemic to understand what resources are
provided by other organizations effectively and what areas the City had to step up and
address.
Kristy Camacho noted need to connect with County to understand its ability to provide
services.
Roderick Bovee commented on importance of good ventilation, especially in public spaces.
Eric Yurkovich noted that the building code has standards to address ventilation and could
research healthy building standards further.
Sophie Martin suggested a performance metric relating to seismic retrofits – separated by
residents and businesses.
Krsity Camacho asked if City is reaching all demographics in the case of emergencies.
Roderick Bovee asked about damn failures. Eric Yurkovich noted it is a requirements of
General Plan law, but not a risk to South San Francisco.
3. Next Steps – Community Outreach Meeting Schedule
Eric Yurkovich reviewed the upcoming meetings and next steps. Community meetings are scheduled
in March to review the policy framework. City Council also considering moderate density housing
options. Next meeting on April 13, 2021 will be on social equity. Eric Yurkovich also noted that the
