Proclamation recognizing September as National Suicide Prevention Awareness Month.(James Coleman, Mayor)
City of South San Francisco Printed on 9/6/2024Page 1 of 1
powered by Legistar™12
Dated: September 11, 2024
IN RECOGNITION OF SEPTEMBER AS
NATIONAL SUICIDE PREVENTION AWARENESS MONTH
WHEREAS, September is known around the United States as National Suicide Prevention
Awareness Month when mental health advocates, prevention organizations, survivors, allies, and
community members unite to promote suicide prevention awareness and the 2024 theme is “Love
Over Loneliness”; and
WHEREAS, the City of South San Francisco will join the country, state and county in
honoring Suicide Prevention Month in September, National Suicide Prevention Week (Sept 8-14)
and World Suicide Prevention Day (Sept 10) to spread the message that suicide can be prevented.
We believe suicide is not inevitable for anyone, and by starting conversations, providing support,
and directing help to those who need it, we can prevent suicides and save lives; and
WHEREAS, in 2023, 65 people died by suicide in San Mateo County and 16,568 calls
were received by the San Mateo County Crisis Line (run by Star Vista Crisis Center), including
1,033 (6%) calls which were routed through 988; and
WHEREAS, the South San Francisco community is urged to play a role in supporting each
other and preventing suicide by knowing the signs of suicide, finding the words of support and
reaching out to local resources such as dialing or texting 988 or contacting National Alliance on
Mental Illness (NAMI); and
WHEREAS, evidence shows that providing support services, talking about suicide,
reducing access to means of self-harm, and preventing loneliness by following up with loved ones,
we can help others; and
WHEREAS, it is essential that we educate residents about suicide, mental health and
substance abuse problems and the ways they affect all people in the community; and
WHEREAS, the City of South San Francisco continues what began as the Community
Wellness and Crisis Response Team pilot program in San Mateo County to incorporating a mental
health clinician from StarVista within the South San Francisco Police Department’s service model
to provide improved emergency response to individuals experiencing behavioral health crises.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council of the City of South San
Francisco does hereby proclaim September as National Suicide Prevention Awareness Month and
we are united in raising awareness that prevention is possible, treatment is effective, and people
do recover.

Dated: September 11, 2024
IN RECOGNITION OF
NATIONAL HISPANIC HERITAGE MONTH
WHEREAS, National Hispanic Heritage Month began as a way to promote the history,
culture, and contributions of Hispanic Americans – specifically those whose ancestors came from
Spain, Mexico, the Caribbean, and Central and South America; and
WHEREAS, Hispanic Heritage Month started in 1968 as Hispanic Heritage Week under
President Lyndon B. Johnson and was expanded to cover a thirty-day period starting on September
15 and ending on October 15. Hispanic Heritage Month was enacted into law on August 17, 1988,
on the approval of Public Law 100-402; and
WHEREAS, the day of September 15 is significant because it is the anniversary of
independence for Latin American countries Costa Rica, El Salvador, Guatemala, Honduras, and
Nicaragua. In addition, Mexico and Chile celebrate their independence days on September 16 and
September 18 respectively; and
WHEREAS, this year’s theme is “Pioneers of Change: Shaping the Future Together”
which celebrates the achievements and contributions of Hispanic Americans who have inspired
others to succeed; and
WHEREAS, one in five, or sixty-two million Americans identify as Hispanic, making
Hispanics the largest ethnic minority. By the year 2060, 27.5% of America’s population will be
Hispanic; and
WHEREAS, Hispanic Americans have been integral to the prosperity of the United States.
As legislators, artists, judges, farmworkers, musicians, and activists, their contributions to the
nation are immeasurable, and they embody the best of American values; and
WHEREAS, Hispanic Americans have enhanced and shaped our national character with
centuries-old traditions that reflect the multi-ethnic and multicultural customs of their
communities, while adding their own distinct and dynamic perspectives to the story of our country.
NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council of the City of South San
Francisco does hereby recognize September 15 – October 15, 2024, as National Hispanic Heritage
Month - a time to reflect on and celebrate the Hispanic American community and how it has left
an indelible mark on the U.S. culture and economy.

funding from San Mateo County Registration and Elections Division (SMCo Elections)to support a 29-

BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION
From October 7,2024 through November 5,2024,South San Francisco Main Library,Library |Parks and
Recreation Center,second floor Community Room,will serve as a Vote Center for the upcoming November 5,
2024 Presidential General Election.Although San Mateo County has gone to an all-mailed ballot election,Vote
Centers are still needed to assist those residents with ballot issues or to complete the voting process.Traditional
polling places have been replaced by Vote Centers,which are open for voting for an extended period,and
which offer expanded voter services,including voter registration,multilingual assistance,and disabled access
voting options.This will be the 11th election for which the Library,partnering with the City Clerk,provides
Vote Center services.Establishment of accessible Vote Centers is an important factor in securing successful
voter turnout.Funding will support library staff scheduled on site around regular library hours and Peninsula
Library System Network setup costs.
FISCAL IMPACT
Funds received from SMCo Elections will be used to amend the Library Department’s current FY 2024-25
Operating Budget pursuant to Budget Amendment Number 25.013.Receipt of these funds does not commit the
City to ongoing funding.
RELATIONSHIP TO STRATEGIC PLAN
Acceptance of this funding will contribute to the City’s Strategic Plan under Priority #6,which includes a goal
of creating community connections, by providing a local vote site as a convenient option for voters.
CONCLUSION
Receipt of these funds will support the 29-Day Early Vote Center at the Main Library for the November 5,2024
Presidential General Election.It is recommended that the City Council accept $4,069.14 in funding from SMCo
Elections and amend the Library Department’s FY 2024-25 Operating Budget via Budget Amendment Number

RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends City Council adopt a resolution to approve a Second Amendment with CSS
Environmental Services,Inc.of Novato,California for the Environmental Monitoring of the former
Oyster Point Landfill in an amount not to exceed $257,039 for an additional two years,authorizing a
total budget of $949,139, and authorizing the City Manager to execute the agreement.
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION
The Oyster Point Landfill is a City-owned,closed,unlined Class III landfill located along the San Francisco
Bay in the City of South San Francisco (for map,see Attachment 1).The landfill area has been developed for
use as open space,biotech development,bay trail,public marina,boat launch area,and a future hotel complex.
The San Mateo Harbor District operates the public marina on the landfill and is responsible for the general
maintenance of the marina facilities.
The landfill is regulated by the Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB)under Order No.00-046
(herein referred as “Order”),issued on June 21,2000.The Order imposes closure and post-closure requirements
on the City as part of ongoing development.Technical environmental monitoring reports that are submitted to
the RWQCP are a requirement of the Order.City staff relies on environmental consultants with appropriate
expertise to perform the required monitoring and reporting.
In 2018,the City entered into an agreement with CSS Environmental Services,Inc.for the required monitoring
and reporting.The original 2021 agreement and subsequent amendments expired on June 30,2024.Based upon
CSS Environmental Services’familiarity with the site,expertise,and previous performance,staff recommended
amending the agreement for a term not to exceed three years and to increase the budget authority to provide for
the additional services.The City now desires to extend the agreement for an additional two years and increase
the budget authority to provide for the additional services.
The draft amendment is included as Attachment 3 and with the accompanying resolution.
FUNDING
Due to increased lab costs,CSS Environmental Services,Inc.has submitted an updated cost proposal
(Attachment 4).The estimated cost for monitoring and reporting for fiscal year 2024-25 is $125,385.With a
factored 5%increase for year two,the estimated fiscal year 2025-26 cost is $131,654.Staff previously
proposed including a ten-percent contingency and a ten-percent administrative oversight,resulting in a total not
-to-exceed amount of $257,039 for the two-year contract term and a total budget of $949,139.

Version:1 Item #:10.
Contingency funds will be used for any unforeseen conditions or any future additional monitoring required by
the Regional Water Quality Control Board.
This consulting services agreement is funded through the Solid Waste Fund,which provides sufficient funds to
pay for these monitoring costs.
CONCLUSION
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt a resolution authorizing the City Manager to execute a second
amendment to the consulting services agreement with CSS based on their performance,experience,and
familiarity with the site and monitoring requirements.

Report regarding a resolution approving an amendment to a consulting services agreement with CSS
Environmental Services, Inc. of Novato, California for the Environmental Monitoring of the former Oyster
Point Landfill in an amount not to exceed $300,000, authorizing a total budget of $360,000, and authorizing the
City Manager to execute the agreement.(Dave Bockhaus, Deputy Director of Public Works)
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council adopt a resolution approving an amendment to the consulting
services agreement with CSS Environmental Services, Inc. of Novato, California for the Environmental
Monitoring of the former Oyster Point Landfill in an amount not to exceed $300,000, authorizing a total
budget of $360,000, and authorizing the City Manager to execute the agreement.
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION
The Oyster Point Landfill is a City-owned, closed unlined Class III landfill located along the San Francisco Bay
in the City of South San Francisco (for map, see Attachment 1). The landfill area has been developed for use as
open space, biotech development, bay trail, public marina, boat launch area, and a future hotel complex. The
San Mateo Harbor District operates the public marina on the landfill and is responsible for the general
maintenance of the marina facilities.
The landfill is regulated by the Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB) under Order No. 00-046,
herein referred as “Order”, issued on June 21, 2000. The Order imposes closure and post-closure requirements
on the City as part of ongoing development. Technical environmental monitoring reports that are submitted to
the RWQCP are a requirement of the Order. City staff relies on environmental consultants with appropriate
expertise to perform the required monitoring and reporting.
In 2018, the City entered into an agreement with CSS Environmental Services, Inc. for the required monitoring
and reporting. The current agreement expired on June 30, 2021, but it does include provisions to extend and
amend the contract if desired by the City. Based upon CSS Environmental Services’ familiarity with the site,
expertise, and previous performance, staff recommends amending the agreement for a term not to exceed three
years and to increase the budget authority to provide for the additional services. The contract extension will be
back dated to be effective as of June 30, 2021 so that the agreement is kept continuous with additional funding.
The draft amendment, and updated Scope of Services and budget documentation are included as attachments to
the accompanying resolution.

Version:1 Item #:5.
The estimated cost for CSS monitoring and reporting is $300,000 for the term of the agreement ($100,000
annually). Staff proposes to include a ten-percent contingency of $30,000 and ten-percent administrative
oversight of $30,000 for a total not to exceed amount of $360,000.
Contingency funds will be used for any unforeseen conditions, or any future additional monitoring required by
the Regional Water Quality Control Board.
This consulting services agreement is funded through the Solid Waste Fund. There are sufficient funds to pay
for these monitoring costs.
CONCLUSION
Staff recommends the City Council adopt a resolution authorizing the City Manager to execute a a first
amendment to the consulting services agreement with CSS based on their performance, experience, and
familiarity of the site and monitoring requirements.

Dear Mr. Kaufman:
Thank you for the opportunity discuss the City of South San Francisco’s (the City’s)
anticipated need to monitor and maintain monitoring stations along the relocated Cal
Water supply line supporting the redevelopment of the Former Oyster Point Landfill. We
welcome the opportunity to provide you with this proposal to support the City in this
effort. CSS Environmental Services, Inc. (CSS) is uniquely qualified to provide you with
the services described herein as we have been providing the City with compliance
monitoring services at the former Oyster Point Landfill since 2008. The monitoring is
required by the present RWQCB Order No. 00-046 which specifies Waste Discharge
Requirements (WDRs) for the City as discharger and owner of the Oyster Point Landfill
property and has been in place since June of 2000. CSS completes groundwater
monitoring, storm water inspections and monitoring, and landfill gas monitoring
activities for the City and provides associated reporting and project management of these
activities. In addition, CSS has experience performing compliance monitoring at several
other closed landfills regulated by the RWQCB and local county agencies, including:
x Former Smith Ranch Road disposal site. CSS performed monitoring and
reporting activities at the current Captain’s Cove condominium site for the
homeowner’s association. At our recommendation, the Marin County
Environmental Health Department (MCEHD) and the California Integrated
Waste Management Board (now Cal Recycle) closed the site after years of
declining concentrations of landfill gas in 2007.
x Former Horst Hanf Landfill. CSS is providing on-going environmental
compliance monitoring at this closed landfill and current Bayview Business Park
regulated by Cal Recycle and the MCEHD.
x Former San Quentin Solid Waste Disposal Site. CSS provides environmental
compliance monitoring at this closed solid waste disposal site and current Home

Depot and Target retail stores. This site is located in San Rafael and is regulated
by Vic Pal of the RWQCB. Mr. Pal also regulates the Former Oyster Point
Landfill for the RWQCB.
PROPOSED SCOPE OF WORK
In support of the City’s requirements found in their pending Utility Agreement with Cal
Water, CSS sees the following scope of work tasks and estimated annual budget based on
time and material charges according to our existing Oyster Point fee schedule.
1 Meetings
CSS anticipates attending two meetings with the City, the Developer, Cal Water and/or
the RWQCB as needed each year. $1,450 per year
2 Preparation and Submittal of Quarterly Reports
The Agreement requires the City to submit quarterly reports to Cal Water including semi-
annual monitoring reports (already contracted with CSS by the City), quarterly readings
of groundwater elevations in existing monitoring wells (presently performed quarterly
and reported semi-annually by CSS for the City), the latest ground elevation surveys and
ISO settlement maps, sampling results from any water station. As semi-annual reports
are currently prepared two additional quarterly reports are required per year.
$4,800 per year
3 Survey of Selected Fire Hydrants
The City is required to survey selected fire hydrants, capturing any settlement at 30 days,
1 year, 3 years and 5 years after water line tie-in. $1,350 per event
4 Develop ISO Settlement Map
The City is required develop a ISO Settlement Map after water line tie-in and every 5
years thereafter. CSS assumes that ground elevations will be surveyed across the landfill
to determine settlement and that the City can provide us with the baseline map.
$4,500 per event
5 Sampling and Analysis of Water Stations/Water System Wells
Under some circumstances samples from the water system monitoring stations and water
system wells must be collected and analyzed . $1,600 per event
Our total estimated annual budget for providing the City of South San Francisco with
support water line monitoring at the Former Oyster Point Landfill, as described above,
assumes one of each of Task 1 through 4, and two events of Task 5 will need to be
completed each year. This brings the annual estimated cost to: $15,300

Report regarding a resolution approving an amendment to a consulting services agreement with CSS
Environmental Services, Inc. of Novato, California for the Environmental Monitoring of the former Oyster
Point Landfill in an amount not to exceed $300,000, authorizing a total budget of $360,000, and authorizing the
City Manager to execute the agreement.(Dave Bockhaus, Deputy Director of Public Works)
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council adopt a resolution approving an amendment to the consulting
services agreement with CSS Environmental Services, Inc. of Novato, California for the Environmental
Monitoring of the former Oyster Point Landfill in an amount not to exceed $300,000, authorizing a total
budget of $360,000, and authorizing the City Manager to execute the agreement.
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION
The Oyster Point Landfill is a City-owned, closed unlined Class III landfill located along the San Francisco Bay
in the City of South San Francisco (for map, see Attachment 1). The landfill area has been developed for use as
open space, biotech development, bay trail, public marina, boat launch area, and a future hotel complex. The
San Mateo Harbor District operates the public marina on the landfill and is responsible for the general
maintenance of the marina facilities.
The landfill is regulated by the Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB) under Order No. 00-046,
herein referred as “Order”, issued on June 21, 2000. The Order imposes closure and post-closure requirements
on the City as part of ongoing development. Technical environmental monitoring reports that are submitted to
the RWQCP are a requirement of the Order. City staff relies on environmental consultants with appropriate
expertise to perform the required monitoring and reporting.
In 2018, the City entered into an agreement with CSS Environmental Services, Inc. for the required monitoring
and reporting. The current agreement expired on June 30, 2021, but it does include provisions to extend and
amend the contract if desired by the City. Based upon CSS Environmental Services’ familiarity with the site,
expertise, and previous performance, staff recommends amending the agreement for a term not to exceed three
years and to increase the budget authority to provide for the additional services. The contract extension will be
back dated to be effective as of June 30, 2021 so that the agreement is kept continuous with additional funding.
The draft amendment, and updated Scope of Services and budget documentation are included as attachments to
the accompanying resolution.

File #:22-616 Agenda Date:7/27/2022
Version:1 Item #:5.
The estimated cost for CSS monitoring and reporting is $300,000 for the term of the agreement ($100,000
annually). Staff proposes to include a ten-percent contingency of $30,000 and ten-percent administrative
oversight of $30,000 for a total not to exceed amount of $360,000.
Contingency funds will be used for any unforeseen conditions, or any future additional monitoring required by
the Regional Water Quality Control Board.
This consulting services agreement is funded through the Solid Waste Fund. There are sufficient funds to pay
for these monitoring costs.
CONCLUSION
Staff recommends the City Council adopt a resolution authorizing the City Manager to execute a a first
amendment to the consulting services agreement with CSS based on their performance, experience, and
familiarity of the site and monitoring requirements.

Mr. Maurice Kaufman
City of South San Francisco Engineering Division
c/o West Coast Code Consultants, Inc.
1144 65TH Street
Oakland, CA 94608
SUBJECT: Proposal for Environmental Activites Related to
New Former Oyster Point Landfill Water Line Monitoring Stations
South San Francisco, CA
CSS Proposal 050420
Dear Mr. Kaufman:
Thank you for the opportunity discuss the City of South San Francisco’s (the City’s)
anticipated need to monitor and maintain monitoring stations along the relocated Cal
Water supply line supporting the redevelopment of the Former Oyster Point Landfill. We
welcome the opportunity to provide you with this proposal to support the City in this
effort. CSS Environmental Services, Inc. (CSS) is uniquely qualified to provide you with
the services described herein as we have been providing the City with compliance
monitoring services at the former Oyster Point Landfill since 2008. The monitoring is
required by the present RWQCB Order No. 00-046 which specifies Waste Discharge
Requirements (WDRs) for the City as discharger and owner of the Oyster Point Landfill
property and has been in place since June of 2000. CSS completes groundwater
monitoring, storm water inspections and monitoring, and landfill gas monitoring
activities for the City and provides associated reporting and project management of these
activities. In addition, CSS has experience performing compliance monitoring at several
other closed landfills regulated by the RWQCB and local county agencies, including:
x Former Smith Ranch Road disposal site. CSS performed monitoring and
reporting activities at the current Captain’s Cove condominium site for the
homeowner’s association. At our recommendation, the Marin County
Environmental Health Department (MCEHD) and the California Integrated
Waste Management Board (now Cal Recycle) closed the site after years of
declining concentrations of landfill gas in 2007.
x Former Horst Hanf Landfill. CSS is providing on-going environmental
compliance monitoring at this closed landfill and current Bayview Business Park
regulated by Cal Recycle and the MCEHD.
x Former San Quentin Solid Waste Disposal Site. CSS provides environmental
compliance monitoring at this closed solid waste disposal site and current Home
EXHIBIT B1

Depot and Target retail stores. This site is located in San Rafael and is regulated
by Vic Pal of the RWQCB. Mr. Pal also regulates the Former Oyster Point
Landfill for the RWQCB.
PROPOSED SCOPE OF WORK
In support of the City’s requirements found in their pending Utility Agreement with Cal
Water, CSS sees the following scope of work tasks and estimated annual budget based on
time and material charges according to our existing Oyster Point fee schedule.
1 Meetings
CSS anticipates attending two meetings with the City, the Developer, Cal Water and/or
the RWQCB as needed each year. $1,450 per year
2 Preparation and Submittal of Quarterly Reports
The Agreement requires the City to submit quarterly reports to Cal Water including semi-
annual monitoring reports (already contracted with CSS by the City), quarterly readings
of groundwater elevations in existing monitoring wells (presently performed quarterly
and reported semi-annually by CSS for the City), the latest ground elevation surveys and
ISO settlement maps, sampling results from any water station. As semi-annual reports
are currently prepared two additional quarterly reports are required per year.
$4,800 per year
3 Survey of Selected Fire Hydrants
The City is required to survey selected fire hydrants, capturing any settlement at 30 days,
1 year, 3 years and 5 years after water line tie-in. $1,350 per event
4 Develop ISO Settlement Map
The City is required develop a ISO Settlement Map after water line tie-in and every 5
years thereafter. CSS assumes that ground elevations will be surveyed across the landfill
to determine settlement and that the City can provide us with the baseline map.
$4,500 per event
5 Sampling and Analysis of Water Stations/Water System Wells
Under some circumstances samples from the water system monitoring stations and water
system wells must be collected and analyzed . $1,600 per event
Our total estimated annual budget for providing the City of South San Francisco with
support water line monitoring at the Former Oyster Point Landfill, as described above,
assumes one of each of Task 1 through 4, and two events of Task 5 will need to be
completed each year. This brings the annual estimated cost to: $15,300

Report regarding a resolution authorizing the City Manager to enter into a services agreement with the South San
Francisco Unified School District in an amount not to exceed $635,378 for the Parks and Recreation Department to
operate an extended learning program for students enrolled in the South San Francisco Unified School District’s
Expanded Learning Opportunities Program (ELOP)for the 2024-2025 school year.(Angela Duldulao,Deputy Director of
Parks and Recreation)
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council approve a resolution authorizing the City Manager to enter into a services
agreement with the South San Francisco Unified School District in an amount not to exceed $635,378 for the Parks
and Recreation Department to operate an extended learning program for students enrolled in the South San
Francisco Unified School District’s Expanded Learning Opportunities Program (ELOP)for the 2024-2025 school
year.
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION
The Expanded Learning Opportunities Program (ELOP)administered by the California Department of Education
provides funding for after school and summer school learning and enrichment programs for students in transitional
kindergarten through sixth grade.The focus is on local educational agencies (LEAs)with the highest concentration of
targeted disadvantaged students (i.e.English learners and students categorically eligible for free or reduced-price meals).
Local educational agencies must operate the Expanded Learning Opportunities Program pursuant to the requirements in
California Education Code Section 46120.
“Expanded learning”under the code is defined as before school,after school,summer,or intersession learning programs
that focus on developing the academic,social,emotional,and physical needs and interests of pupils through hands-on,
engaging learning experiences.It is the intent of the legislation that expanded learning programs are pupil-centered,
results driven,include community partners,and complement,but do not replicate,learning activities in the regular school
day and school year.In order to qualify,students/families must either be on free or reduced lunch program,homeless,or
foster youth.ELOP must operate a minimum of nine hours per day.During the 180 days of instructional learning during
the school year,nine hours are a combination of instructional school day hours and in-person before and/or after school
program hours.The program must also operate a minimum of 9 hours per day for an additional 30 non-school days (i.e.
breaks and school holidays).
The City has a long history of partnering with the South San Francisco Unified School District (District)to offer extended
day programs for its STEAM and BLISS Summer School Programs,as well as expanding its after school programs.
District staff requested that the City’s Parks and Recreation Department partner with the District to continue ELOP for the
2024-2025 school year on the six campuses where the City currently operates programs.These campuses include Buri
Buri Elementary School,Los Cerritos Elementary School,Martin Elementary School,Monte Verde Elementary School,
Ponderosa Elementary School, and Spruce Elementary School.
The program would be offered at no cost to families who meet the criteria mentioned above.If spaces are available after
all eligible families have been served,other families can join ELOP on a sliding scale rate.Other than the in-kind cost of
administration services provided by Parks and Recreation Department staff,the City would be reimbursed by the District
for direct costs via ELOP funding.
In addition to the City’s services,the District will also be continuing services through its own District Extended Day
Activities Program (DEDAP),and other existing partners,including the Boys and Girls Club,CAM EDU,and Right at

Activities Program (DEDAP),and other existing partners,including the Boys and Girls Club,CAM EDU,and Right at
School.
During the school year,the afternoon extended day program managed and staffed by the Parks and Recreation
Department operates from bell time until 6:00 p.m.During non-school days,the Department operates from 7:30 a.m.to
6:00 p.m.For classroom space,the District has made changes to rooms currently occupied for the Department’s existing
before and after school programs on three of the campuses.Staff has worked with the District to find classroom space at
these sites.
FISCAL IMPACT
The District will reimburse the City,using State grant monies,for direct expenses so this program can be offered at no
cost to families.In-kind services,including administration and overhead will be provided by the City.Given that this is
the second year of the ELOP partnership between the City and District,the staffing and supplies budget for this program
has already been factored into the City’s Fiscal Year 2024-25 Operating Budget.No budget amendment is needed.The
cost of services are estimated not to exceed $635,378.
RELATIONSHIP TO STRATEGIC PLAN
Acceptance of this funding will contribute to the City’s Strategic Plan under Priority #2 by helping build active recreation,
learning, and childcare programs.
CONCLUSION
As the provider of preschools,before and after school programs,and seasonal camp programs,the Parks and Recreation
Department fully appreciates,supports,and advocates for affordable,high-quality programs for children in South San
Francisco.City staff will continue to work with District personnel and other partners to continue ELOP as the District
moves through the program’s second year of implementation.

Report regarding an ordinance adding Chapter 8.78 (“Mooring Regulations”)to the South San Francisco
Municipal Code to provide regulations for mooring in the City’s navigable waterways.(Rich Lee,Assistant City
Manager; Kimia Mahallati, Assistant City Attorney)
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt an Ordinance adding Chapter 8.78 (“Mooring
Regulations”)to the South San Francisco Municipal Code to provide regulations for mooring in the
City’s navigable waterways, and waive further reading.
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION
On August 28,2024,the City Council introduced and conducted a first reading of South San Francisco
Municipal Code (SSFMC)Chapter 8.78 (“Mooring Regulations”)to provide regulations for mooring in the
City’s navigable waterways.
(Introduced on 8/28/24, Vote 5-0)
As of July 9,2024,there were six vessels in the Oyster Point Cove area that were not connected to a slip at a
dock and occupying public property,otherwise known as “anchor-outs.”The presence of anchor-out vessels in
the Oyster Point area has been an ongoing issue for the City of South San Francisco.In addition to being a
blight on the City’s navigable waterways,anchor-out vessels are a health and safety risk to water quality.The
purpose of this addition to the South San Francisco Municipal Code (SSFMC)is to provide the City with the
authority to more effectively manage these vessels and ensure that the navigable waterways are used for
recreational purposes and not for habitation,as well as to prevent the degradation in water quality and loss of
aquatic habitat that may occur from unregulated anchor-outs.
The City of Oakland,City of Sausalito,the Richardson Bay Regional Agency and the Counties of Contra Costa,
Sacramento,and Solano have all adopted local ordinances in coordination with the Bay Conservation and
Development Commission (BCDC)to supplement those in the State Boating and Waterway codes to establish
rules around how long and where mariners can anchor,and to enable enforcement if the anchoring rules are not
followed.The proposed SSFMC Chapter 8.78 largely follows the model of the City of Sausalito’s ordinance.
The collaborative efforts in the North Bay and Delta regions provide for better enforcement and compliance
than a singular agency adopting and enforcing a mooring ordinance,as non-compliant vessels would likely shift
to agencies that do not have a mooring ordinance in place.Staff has apprised other agencies in San Mateo
County of the City’s ordinance to encourage a regional approach in San Mateo County.
Notable Ordinance Provisions
Other than authorized vessels,SSFMC 8.78.070 states that vessels must have authorization from the Chief of
Police to be in the harbor or marina areas for longer than 10 hours.
Pursuant to SSFMC 8.78.110 (B),vessels left in City waters or beached for 72 or more consecutive hours may
be moved or caused to be removed by the South San Francisco Police Department.The registered and legalCity of South San Francisco Printed on 9/6/2024Page 1 of 2

be moved or caused to be removed by the South San Francisco Police Department.The registered and legal
owner of the vessel can secure the release of the vessel by providing proof of ownership and payment of the
costs and expense of removal, impoundment, and/or storage of the vessel.
Violation of SSFMC Chapter 8.78 is a misdemeanor and may be subject to a fine not to exceed $500 and/or
imprisonment for up to 30 days.
FISCAL IMPACT
The City was able to partner with the San Mateo County Harbor District (Harbor District)to remove three
vessels that burned in November 2023.The Harbor District was able to utilize its funding through the
California State Parks Division of Boating and Waterways (DBW)Surrendered and Abandoned Vessel
Exchange (SAVE) grant.
While adoption of this ordinance does not have a fiscal impact,the City will likely need to augment its
operating budget in the future and enter into on-call agreements to remove and store vessels that are in violation
of SSFMC Chapter 8.78 due to the limited amount of SAVE grant funds that the Harbor District is able to
utilize in partnership with the City in the future.
RELATIONSHIP TO STRATEGIC PLAN
SSFMC Chapter 8.78 promotes the Quality of Life element from the City’s Strategic Plan.Namely,to Build
and Maintain a Sustainable City with high quality and accessible services,amenities and facilities for all
residents.
CONCLUSION
It is recommended that the City Council adopt an Ordinance adding Chapter 8.78 to the South San Francisco
Municipal Code to provide regulations for mooring in the City’s navigable waterways.The Ordinance will be
effective immediately upon adoption.

(a) Any person violating any of the provisions of this chapter shall be guilty of a misdemeanor and upon
conviction thereof may be punished by a fine not exceeding $500.00, or by imprisonment in the County Jail for
a period not exceeding 30 days, or by both such fine and imprisonment.

Report regarding a resolution approving and authorizing the City Manager to execute a fifteen-year lease agreement with
New Cingular Wireless PCS,LLC for the construction of a wireless communication facility at 323 Miller Avenue and
authorizing the City Manager to approve the agreement. (Tony Barrera, Director of Information Technology)
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommend approving a fifteen-year lease agreement with New Cingular Wireless PCS,LLC for the
construction of a wireless communication facility to improve cellular coverage in the downtown area and provide a
new revenue stream for the City.
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION
The City’s downtown area has experienced substantial growth over the years,including development of numerous large
apartment complexes.As the population continues to expand,there will be an increased demand for improved cellular
coverage and data services in the area.Additionally,the construction of new buildings often disrupts existing antenna
signals, requiring the installation of new antennas to enhance signal strength.
In 2023,New Cingular Wireless PCS approached the City with a proposal to use the downtown parking structure located
at 323 Miller Avenue for their cellular network infrastructure.The City was receptive to this proposal,and New Cingular
Wireless PCS,submitted plans to the Planning Division for review and approval.The proposed plans were presented to
the Design Review Board on June 20, 2023, then approved by the Chief Planner.
The proposed wireless facility was approved by the Chief Planner in accordance with South San Francisco Municipal
Code (SSFMC)Chapter 20.370 (“Antennas and Wireless Communications Facilities”)and Chapter 20.510 (“Waivers and
Modifications”).All proposed wireless facilities located on property owned or leased by the City and that comply with the
required location,design,and operation requirements found in SSFMC Section 20.370.005 are permitted by right and
require a Building Permit only.However,the project included a request for a modification to height requirements under
SSFMC Section 20.510.002 to allow an increased height so that the new facility would not exceed the radio frequency
(RF)exposure limits on neighboring properties mandated by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC).The
Waivers and Modification request was approved by the Chief Planner on August 14,2023,permitting a maximum 10%
increase to the maximum height allowed on the project site in order to allow the new facility to operate in compliance
with FCC regulations.
The key aspects of the plans include:
·20 panel antennas (five per sector) and 16 remote radio heads (RRUs) (four per sector)
·Installing a facade around the rooftop to match the building's colors
·Running fiber optic cabling to AT&T equipment
·Use of 3 parking spaces on the 3rd floor
In addition,the IT Department and the City Attorney’s office reviewed and finalized the lease terms.The key terms of the
lease agreement include:
·Lease 294 square feet on the 3rd floor
·Rooftop space measuring 23 contiguous linear feet in width and 25 contiguous linear feet in depth
·Fifteen-year lease term, with option to renew terms after fifteen years.
·Monthly rent of $6,700 with a 3%annual increase.Rent begins to become due upon commencement of
construction.

Below is a rendering of how it will intend to look:
FISCAL IMPACT
The lease agreement is expected to generate over $80,000 in new general fund revenue annually.
RELATIONSHIP TO STRATEGIC PLAN
Improving cellular service in South San Franciso will contribute to the City’s Strategic Plan under Priority #2 Quality of
Life.
CONCLUSION
The City downtown area has experienced growth over the years and will demand improved connectivity.By installing
new antennas in the downtown area,residents of the City would benefit from enhanced network capacity,better signal
coverage,and faster,higher-quality data speeds.Additionally,the City will gain a new revenue stream over the next
fifteen years or more.

regarding Landlord’s determination. In that event, Tenant shall not commence work on such Modification , but
the parties shall engage in good faith discussion regarding how such Modification may be revised to conform
with this Agreement or the leasing of Additional Premises may be required. If Landlord fails to provide to Tenant
notice of its determination within the Review Period, then the proposed Modification shall be deemed to conform

any Hazardous Materials Claim.

provided that Landlord’s approval of such actions shall first be obtained, which approval shall not be
unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed. All costs and expenses of any Remedial Work shall be
paid by Tenant, it being understood that Landlord shall incur no cost, expense or liability in connec tion

any Hazardous Material in, on, under or from the Premises or the Property.

disposal of any such Hazardous Materials by Tenant, and irrespective of whether any of such activities
were or will be undertaken in accordance with Hazardous Materials Laws and shall include, without
limitation, any Claims arising in connection with any investigation of site conditions or any cleanup,
remedial, removal or restoration work ordered by a court or required by any federal, state, or local
governmental agency or political subdivision. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained

Materials to the extent the Hazardous Materials were pre-existing on the Property prior to the Effective
Date, migrate onto the Property through air, water, or soil through no fault of Tenant, or are introduced
by any third party not under Tenant’s control, or are not caused by Tenant. This Section 11(c)(6) shall

damage from the elements excepted. Landlord will maintain and repair the Property and access thereto , the
Structure, and all areas of the Premises where Tenant does not have exclusive control, in the same manner as
other public properties are maintained, subject to reasonable wear and tear and damage from the elements.
Landlord will be responsible for maintenance of landscaping on the Property, excluding any approved
landscaping installed by Tenant as a condition of this Agreement or any required permit, which shall be
responsibilities of Tenant.
(b) Tenant will be responsible for paying on a monthly or quarterly basis all utilities charges for
electricity, telephone service or any other utility used or consumed by Tenant on the Premises. In the event
Tenant cannot secure its own metered electrical supply, Tenant will have the right, at its own cost and expense,
to sub-meter from Landlord. When sub-metering is required under this Agreement, Landlord will read the meter
and provide Tenant with an invoice and usage data on a monthly basis. Tenant shall reimburse Landlord for such
utility usage at the same rate charged to Landlord by the utility service provider. Landlord further agrees to
provide the usage data and invoice on forms provided by Tenant and to send such forms to such address and/or
agent designated by Tenant. Tenant will remit payment within thirty (30) days of receipt of the usage data and
required forms. Landlord shall maintain accurate and detailed records of all utility expenses, invoices and
payments applicable to Tenant’s reimbursement obligations hereunder. Within thirty (30) days after a request
from Tenant, Landlord shall provide copies of such utility billing records to the Tenant in the form of copies of
invoices, contracts and cancelled checks. If the utility billing records reflect an overpayment by Tenant, Tenant
shall have the right to deduct the amount of such overpayment from any monies due to Landlord from Tenant.
176
10
(c) As noted in Section 4(c), any utility fee recovery by Landlord is limited to a 2 -year period. If
Tenant sub-meters electricity from Landlord, Landlord agrees to give Tenant at least twenty-four (24) hours
advance notice of any planned interruptions of said electricity. Landlord acknowledges that Tenant provides a
communication service which requires electrical power to operate and must operate twenty-four (24) hours per
day, seven (7) days per week. If the interruption is for an extended period of time, in Tenant’s reasonable
determination, Landlord agrees to allow Tenant the right to bring in a temporary source of power for the duration
of the interruption at Tenant’s sole cost and expense. Landlord will not be responsible for interference with,
interruption of or failure, beyond the reasonable control of Landlord, of such services to be furnished or supplied
by Landlord.
(d) Tenant will have the right to install utilities specific to Tenant, and its successors, assigns,
subtenants, and licensees, and/or Pacific Gas and Electric Company, at no additional cost to Landlord, and to
improve present utilities on the Property and the Premises.
15. DEFAULT AND RIGHT TO CURE.
(a) The following will be deemed a default by Tenant and a breach of this Agreement: (i) non-
payment of Rent if such Rent remains unpaid for more than thirty (30) days after written notice from Landlord
of such failure to pay; or (ii) Tenant’s failure to perform any other term or condition under this Agreement within
thirty (30) days after written notice from Landlord specifying the failure. No such failure, however, will be
deemed to exist if Tenant has commenced to cure such default within such period and provided that such efforts
are prosecuted to completion with reasonable diligence. Delay in curing a default will be excused if due to causes
beyond the reasonable control of Tenant. If Tenant remains in default beyond any applicable cure period, then
Landlord will have the right to exercise any and all rights and remedies available to it under law and equity.
(b) The following will be deemed a default by Landlord and a breach of this Agreement: (i)
Landlord’s failure to provide Access to the Premises as required by Section 12 within forty-eight (48) hours after
written notice of such failure; (ii) Landlord’s failure to cure an interference problem as required by Section 8
within twenty-four (24) business hours after written notice of such failure; or (iii) Landlord’s failure to perform
any term, condition or breach of any warranty or covenant under this Agreement within forty-five (45) days after
written notice from Tenant specifying the failure. No such failure, however, will be deemed to exist if Landlord
has commenced to cure the default within such period and provided such efforts are prosecuted to completion
with reasonable diligence. Delay in curing a default will be excused if due to causes beyond the reasonable
control of Landlord. If Landlord remains in default beyond any applicable cure period, Tenant will have: (i) the
right to cure Landlord’s default and to deduct the costs of such cure from any monies due to Landlord from
Tenant, and (ii) any and all other rights available to it under law and equity.
16. ASSIGNMENT/SUBLEASE. Tenant may not assign or transfer this Agreement or sublet any portion
of the Premises without the prior written consent of Landlord. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, Tenant
shall be permitted to assign this Agreement without Landlord’s prior consent but with advance written notice to
the Landlord to (i) Tenant’s Affiliate (as defined in Section 24(i)); (ii) an entity that acquires all or substantially
all of Tenant’s assets in the market as defined by the Federal Communications Commission in which the Property
is located; and where such assignee assumes, recognizes and also agrees to fully assume, and become responsible
to Landlord for the performance of, all terms and conditions of this Agreement to the extent of such assignment.
Upon notification to Landlord of such assignment or transfer, Tenant will be relieved of all future performance,
liabilities and obligations under this Agreement. Any purported assignment, transfer, or sublet in violation of
this section shall be void.
17. NOTICES. All notices, requests and demands hereunder will be given by first class certified or
registered mail, return receipt requested, or by a nationally recognized overnight courier, postage prepaid, to be

Either party hereto may change the place for the giving of notice to it by thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to
the other party hereto as provided herein.
18. CONDEMNATION. In the event Landlord receives notification of any condemnation proceedings
affecting the Property, Landlord will provide notice of the proceeding to Tenant within twenty-four (24) business
hours. If a condemning authority takes all of the Property, or a portion sufficient, in Tenant’s sole determination,
to render the Premises unsuitable for Tenant, this Agreement will terminate as of the date the title vests in the
condemning authority. The parties will each be entitled to pursue their own separate awards in the condemnation
proceeds, which for Tenant will include, where applicable, the value of its Communication Facility, moving
expenses, prepaid Rent, and business dislocation expenses. Tenant will be entitled to reimbursement for any
prepaid Rent on a pro rata basis.
19. CASUALTY. Landlord will provide notice to Tenant of any casualty or other harm affecting the
Property within forty-eight (48) hours of the casualty or other harm. If any part of the Communication Facility
or the Property is damaged by casualty or other harm as to render the Premises unsuitable, in Tenant’s sole
determination, then Tenant may terminate this Agreement by providing written notice to Landlord, which
termination will be effective as of the date of such casualty or other harm. Upon such termination, Tenant will
be entitled to collect all insurance proceeds payable to Tenant on account thereof and to be reimbursed for any
prepaid Rent on a pro rata basis. Landlord agrees to permit Tenant to place temporary transmission and reception
facilities on the Property, but only until such time as Tenant is able to activate a replacement transmission facility
at another location; notwithstanding the termination of this Agreement, such temporary facilities will be governed
by all of the terms and conditions of this Agreement, including Rent. If Landlord or Tenant undertakes to rebuild
or restore the Premises and/or the Communication Facility, as applicable, Landlord agrees to permit Tenant to
place temporary transmission and reception facilities on the Property until the reconstruction of the Premises
and/or the Communication Facility is completed. If Landlord determines not to rebuild or restore the Property,
Landlord will notify Tenant of such determination within one hundred and eighty (180) days after the casualty
178
12
or other harm. If Landlord does not so notify Tenant and Tenant decides not to terminate under this Section 19,
then Landlord will promptly rebuild or restore any portion of the Property interfering with or required for
Tenant’s Permitted Use of the Premises to substantially the same condition as existed before the casualty or other
harm. Landlord agrees that the Rent shall be abated until the Property and/or the Premises are rebuilt or restored
unless Tenant places temporary transmission and reception facilities on the Property.
20. WAIVER OF LANDLORD’S LIENS. Landlord waives any and all lien rights it may have, statutory or
otherwise, concerning the Communication Facility or any portion thereof. The Communication Facility shall be
deemed personal property for purposes of this Agreement, regardless of whether any portion is deemed real or
personal property under applicable law; Landlord consents to Tenant’s right to remove all or any portion of the
Communication Facility from time to time in Tenant’s sole discretion and without Landlord’s consent.
21. TAXES.
(a) Landlord shall be responsible for (i) all taxes and assessments levied upon the lands, improvements
and other property of Landlord including any such taxes that may be calculated by a taxing authority using any
method, including the income method, (ii) all sales, use, license, value added, documentary, stamp, gross receipts,
registration, real estate transfer, conveyance, excise, recording, and other similar taxes and fees imposed in
connection with this Agreement, and (iii) all sales, use, license, value added, documentary, stamp, gross receipts,
registration, real estate transfer, conveyance, excise, recording, and other similar taxes and fees imposed in
connection with a sale of the Property or assignment of Rent payments by Landlord. Tenant shall be responsible
for (y) any taxes and assessments attributable to and levied upon Tenant’s leasehold improvements on the
Premises if and as set forth in this Section 21 and (z) all sales, use, license, value added, documentary, stamp,
gross receipts, registration, real estate transfer, conveyance, excise, recording, and other similar taxes and fees
imposed in connection with an assignment of this Agreement or sublease by Tenant. Nothing herein shall require
Tenant to pay any inheritance, franchise, income, payroll, excise, privilege, rent, capital stock, stamp,
documentary, estate or profit tax, or any tax of similar nature, that is or may be imposed upon Landlord.
(b) In the event Landlord receives a notice of assessment with respect to which taxes or assessments are
imposed on Tenant’s leasehold improvements on the Premises, Landlord shall provide Tenant with copies of
each such notice immediately upon receipt, but in no event later than thirty (30) days after the date of such notice
of assessment. If Landlord does not provide such notice or notices to Tenant in a timely manner and Tenant’s
rights with respect to such taxes are prejudiced by the delay, Landlord shall reimburse Tenant for any increased
costs directly resulting from the delay and Landlord shall be responsible for payment of the tax or assessment set
forth in the notice, and Landlord shall not have the right to reimbursement of such amount from Tenant. If
Landlord is required by law to advance the taxes that are imposed on Tenant, and provides a notice of assessment
to Tenant within such time period and requests reimbursement from Tenant as set forth below, then Tenant shall
reimburse Landlord for the tax or assessments identified on the notice of assessment on Tenant’s leasehold
improvements, which has been paid by Landlord. If Landlord seeks reimbursement from Tenant, Landlord shall,
no later than thirty (30) days after Landlord’s payment of the taxes or assessments for the assessed tax year,
provide Tenant with written notice including evidence that Landlord has timely paid same, and any other
supporting documentation reasonably requested by Tenant to allow Tenant to reimburse Landlord, and Tenant
shall reimburse Landlord within thirty (30) days after receipt of said notice and documents.
(c) For any tax amount for which Tenant is responsible under this Agreement, Tenant shall have the right
to contest, in good faith, the validity or the amount thereof using such administrative, appellate or other
proceedings as may be appropriate in the jurisdiction, and may defer payment of such obligations, pay same
under protest, or take such other steps as permitted by law. This right shall include the ability to institute any
legal, regulatory or informal action in the name of Landlord, Tenant, or both, with respect to the valuation of the
Premises. Landlord shall reasonably cooperate with respect to the commencement and prosecution of any such
proceedings and will execute any documents required therefor. The expense of any such proceedings shall be
borne by Tenant and any refunds or rebates secured as a result of Tenant’s ac tion shall belong to Tenant, to the
extent the amounts were originally paid by Tenant, or to Landlord to the extent the amounts were originally paid
179
13
by Landlord. In the event Tenant notifies Landlord by the due date for assessment of Tenant’s intent to contest
the assessment, Landlord shall not pay the assessment pending conclusion of the contest, unless required by
applicable law.
(d) Tenant shall have the right but not the obligation to pay any taxes due by Landlord hereunder if
Landlord fails to timely do so, in addition to any other rights or remedies of Tenant. In the event that Tenant
exercises its rights under this Section 21(e) due to such Landlord default, Tenant shall have the right to deduct
such tax amounts paid from any monies due to Landlord from Tenant as provided in Section 15(b), provided that
Tenant may exercise such right without having provided to Landlord notice and the opportunity to cure per
Section 15(b).
(e) Any tax-related notices shall be sent to Tenant in the manner set forth in Section 17. Promptly after
the Effective Date, Landlord shall provide the following address to the taxing authority for the authority’s use in
the event the authority needs to communicate with Tenant. In the event that Tenant’s tax address changes by
notice to Landlord, Landlord shall be required to provide Tenant’s new tax address to the taxing authority or
authorities.
(f) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 21, Tenant shall have no
obligation to reimburse any tax or assessment for which the Landlord is reimbursed or rebated by a third party.
22. SALE OF PROPERTY.
(a) Landlord may sell the Property or a portion thereof to a third party, provided: (i) the sale is made
subject to the terms of this Agreement; and (ii) if the sale does not include the assignment of Landlord’s full
interest in this Agreement, the purchaser must agree to perform, without requiring compensation from Tenant or
any subtenant, any obligation of Landlord under this Agreement, including Landlord’s obligation to cooperate
with Tenant as provided hereunder.
(b) If Landlord, at any time during the Term of this Agreement, decides to rezone or sell, subdivide
or otherwise transfer all or any part of the Premises, or all or any part of the Property or the Surrounding Property,
to a purchaser other than Tenant, Landlord shall promptly notify Tenant in writing of such rezoning, sale,
subdivision or transfer and any sale, subdivision or other transfer shall be subject to this Agreement and Tenant’s
rights hereunder. In the event of a change in ownership, transfer or sale of the Property, within ten (10) days of
such transfer, Landlord or its successor shall send the documents listed below in this Section 22(b) to Tenant.
Until Tenant receives all such documents, Tenant’s failure to make payments under this Agreement shall not be
an event of default and Tenant reserves the right to hold payments due under this Agreement.
i. Old deed to Property
ii. New deed to Property
iii. Bill of Sale or Transfer
iv. Copy of current Tax Bill
v. New IRS Form W-9
vi. Completed and Signed Tenant Payment Direction Form

or maintenance will interfere (as defined in Section 8(e)) with Tenant’s Permitted Use or communications
equipment as determined by radio propagation tests performed by Tenant in its sole discretion . If the radio
frequency propagation tests demonstrate levels of interference unacceptable to Tenant, Landlord shall be
prohibited from selling, leasing or using any areas of the Property or the Surrounding Property for purposes of
any installation, operation or maintenance of any other wireless communication facility or equipment.

County”(Attachment 1).This report offers a detailed overview of Senate Bill 1383,which mandates organic
waste collection for California businesses and residents and discusses strategies for improving participation and
diversion rates in organic waste management.
The Grand Jury has requested the City’s response to findings F1 through F8 and recommendations R1 through
R8.The Public Works Department and SSF Scavenger Co.,Inc.met to discuss a coordinated response to the
report,and any subsequent,collaborative implementation of its recommendations.The City’s response must
include a statement as to whether the city agrees or disagrees with each finding,as well as a response to each
recommendation.Responses to recommendations must state whether the recommendation has been
implemented,will be implemented,requires further study,or will not be implemented.These statements must
be accompanied by a detailed explanation.
A draft letter addressing these findings and recommendations has been prepared by the City,as detailed in
Attachment 2.Upon the Council’s approval,the City Manager will sign and submit the City’s response to the
Grand Jury by the required deadline of October 9, 2024, in accordance with California Penal Code 933.05.
Response to Grand Jury Findings:
F1.High green cart enrollment costs and insufficient bin space are the dominant contributors to low

participation rates among multi-family dwellings and businesses.
Response to F1 -The City disagrees with this Finding.The City and SSF Scavenger work with multi-
family dwellings and businesses on waste analysis to determine reduced size of grey cart for landfill if green
bin is added,therefore reducing the cost and ensuring compliance with SB 1383 requirements.Regarding
insufficient cart space,there is an option to waive green cart enrollment with a Physical Space Waiver for
accounts that demonstrate that the premises lacks adequate space for the collection containers;the City of South
San Francisco has issued 20 Physical Space waivers.
F2.Green bin contamination among compliant multi-family dwellings and businesses prevents them from
diverting more organic waste.
Response to F2 -The City agrees with this Finding;correct sorting at the source does maximize
diversion.If there is significant contamination,the cart/bin is tagged and not serviced,which encourages re-
sorting at the source.In the case of minimal contamination,our hauler’s de-packaging system can assist in
extracting organic materials.
F3.City,County,and RethinkWaste compliance outreach efforts for multi-family dwellings and businesses
could improve because a significant portion of these properties remain non-compliant.
Response to F3 -The City agrees with this Finding.Extensive outreach (such as phone calls,multi-
lingual letters,site visits,instructional signs,tote bags,kitchen pails,recycling guides,newsletters,social media
campaigns and in-person training sessions)has previously been conducted and is ongoing.The City can
increase enforcement at this point.
F4. Multi-family dwellings and businesses produce a significant amount of the County’s organic waste.
Response to F4 -The City agrees with this Finding.
F5.Citizens cannot conveniently access reliable diversion and participation rates because JPAs and cities do
not make the information available on their government websites.
Response to F5 -The City agrees with this Finding.As far as staff are aware,there is no requirement
from CalRecycle for jurisdictions to provide this information;we are awaiting confirmation from their staff.
CalRecycle’s website provides jurisdictional data including diversion rates.If the City had received requests for
diversion and participation rates by citizens,the City would have provided the data to them.We will make data
available on City website per R4 below.
F6.Assessing progress on organic waste diversion in Atherton,Brisbane,Millbrae,Pacifica,San Bruno,South
San Francisco,and Woodside is difficult because they and their haulers do not separate waste tons by property
type on their annual or quarterly reports.
Response to F6 -The City partially disagrees with this Finding.Progress can be assessed in different
ways.As far as we are aware,CalRecycle does not require reporting by property type;we are awaiting
confirmation from their staff.The hauler tracks progress using lid flipping to monitor contamination levels,

participation rates across the entire customer base, and overall diversion by tonnage across all waste streams.
F7.An alternate and reliable method to separating waste tons by property type would be analyzing
contamination statistics from route audits and waste evaluations.
Response to F7 -The City agrees with this Finding.Lid flipping has been the primary way to identify
contamination.Our hauler is currently sampling organic waste streams for contamination,and they follow up
with any generators that have contamination.
F8.Brisbane,South San Francisco,and Millbrae cannot properly track their waste trends since their hauler and
contractor have contradictory diversion rate formulas and tonnage measurements.
Response to F8 -The City disagrees with this Finding.The methodology of calculating diversion rate
as reported in the EAR (Electronic Annual Report)is as required by the State of California and has been used
consistently so trends over time can be observed.The tonnage the hauler collects and diverts feeds into the
jurisdiction diversion rate calculated in the EAR.Since the Grand Jury used a completely different formula,it is
to be expected that they would have a different result.
Response to Grand Jury Recommendations:
R1.Beginning March 1,2025,cities,the County,and RethinkWaste should host regular inperson green cart
enrollment summits for non-compliant businesses and multi-family dwellings,and identify other new
compliance strategies.
Response to R1 -The recommendation will not be implemented.The hauler already goes directly to the
generators site to make hands-on recommendations and provide education.
R2.Beginning January 1, 2025, Brisbane, South San Francisco, and Millbrae should investigate their
Electronic Annual Report contractor’s diversion rate conversion formulas and their hauler’s waste scales.
Response to R2 -The recommendation has been implemented. It has been verified that the haulers
scales are accurate.
R3.By July 1,2025,Brisbane,South San Francisco,and Millbrae should begin using the simpler diversion rate
calculation the report mentioned or develop a contingency plan if their hauler’s scales are inaccurate.
Response to R3 -The recommendation has been implemented.It has been verified that the haulers
scales are accurate.
R4.Beginning November 30,2024,cities should publish quarterly or annual waste reports with diversion and
participation rates on their government websites.
Response to R4 -The recommendation will be implemented.The City will post annual diversion and
participation rates from our Electronic Annual Report required by CalRecycle on the City’s website by
City of South San Francisco Printed on 9/6/2024Page 3 of 5

November 30 each year.
R5.Beginning December 31, 2024, cities should separate waste tons and diversion rates into the three (or two)
property types (business, residential, multi-family) in their annual or quarterly reports.
Response to R5 -The recommendation will not be implemented. All waste generators that are non-
compliant or contaminate waste streams are targeted individually. If data was to be split into categories there is
a significant grey area in making the determination between commercial vs. multifamily vs. residential. For
example, mixed-use properties with retail on the ground floor and housing above.
R6.Starting April 1, 2025, cities that cannot separate waste tons and diversion rates by property type should
conduct waste evaluations on highly contaminated routes more often.
Response to R6 -The recommendation has been implemented.The hauler conducts waste reviews and
revisits problem addresses.The hauler has found commercial front load bins for organics and recycling to be
most problematic and therefore has focused on this type.
R7.Starting May 1,2025,cities that cannot separate waste tons and diversion rates by property type should
analyze problematic routes’ past and present contamination trends to track their progress.
Response to R7 -This recommendation has yet to be implemented but will be implemented in the
future.The City will work with its hauler to analyze problematic routes’past and present contamination trends
to track their progress starting May 1, 2025 or earlier.
R8.By February 1,2025,jurisdictions should develop and implement new ways to make green bins usable in
multi-family dwellings’ and businesses’ narrow or small waste enclosures.
Response to R8 -This recommendation has been implemented.The hauler provides various sized bins
for organic waste,including various sized carts (32gal -96gal)and front-end load style (1yd -4yd).For multi-
family dwellings,the City and hauler also provide small kitchen pails to help with transport of organic waste to
make the green bins more usable.
FISCAL IMPACT
There is no direct financial impact on the City for providing the required response,as all programs mentioned
in this report are already fully funded through existing sources.
RELATIONSHIP TO STRATEGIC PLAN
Acceptance of this resolution meets Strategic Goals #2 and #6 by providing a high quality of life and improving
community connections.

THE STATE OF COMPOST COMPLIANCE IN
SAN MATEO COUNTY
ISSUE
California regulations adopted pursuant Senate Bill 1383 (2016) mandate separating compostable
materials like food waste from garbage to reduce methane emissions. How effective has San
Mateo County been at meeting composting goals, and what can be done to improve?
SUMMARY
Starting January 1, 2022, regulations adopted pursuant Senate Bill 1383 (2016) required
California businesses and residents to participate in organic waste collection. According to a
2022 San Mateo Daily Journal article, 70% of Burlingame’s businesses and multi-family
dwellings did not have organic waste collection services. San Bruno had 86% of businesses and
45% of multi-family dwellings without organic waste collection (Browning 2022). From
December 2023 to April 2024, officials were interviewed and data was collected from the
County, cities, the RethinkWaste Joint Powers Authority (JPA), and haulers to assess current
compliance.
A statewide goal is to reduce 75% of organic waste disposal from 2014 levels by 2025. Disposal
means sending all waste, organic, recyclable, or trash, to the landfill. Diversion means sending
organic waste or recyclables to conversion centers, where they become compost, mulch, or
consumer recycled content, as opposed to sending them to landfills. Any stand-alone references
to diversion in this report refers to converted organic waste and recycling combined. “Organic
waste diversion” only refers to only converted organic waste. This report’s goal is to identify
where consumers and producers are failing to fully contribute to organic waste diversion
consistent with their abilities.
The report’s recommendations are that the responsible local public entities implement solutions
to increase organic waste participation and diversion rates. Notably, jurisdictions should have
begun penalizing generators for non-compliance beginning January 1, 2024 (California Public
Resources Code § 42652.5 (2022)). Most multi-family dwellings and businesses in San Mateo
County have lower organics collection enrollment compared to single-family homes. High
enrollment rates for all three property types, however, do not necessarily result in high diversion
225

2023-2024 San Mateo County Civil Grand Jury
rates and more organic waste in the waste stream. For example, in 2023, Foster City’s multi-
family dwellings had a 98.81% participation rate; but, organics made up only 5.49% of total
waste (Recology San Mateo County 2024, 2023).
There are several reasons behind multi-family dwellings and businesses having low participation
and diversion rates. Green cart enrollment costs, and insufficient space for the three-cart system
are the largest factors. Contamination brought about by improperly sorting organics into bins
also plays a role. In some multi-family dwellings, trash chutes do not offer an opportunity to sort
and appropriate bins are not conveniently located. Further, local governments cannot reliably
assess their progress on Senate Bill (SB) 1383 compliance because JPAs, haulers, and cities have
different data reporting formats. And residents and the press must retrieve waste statistics from
haulers because most cities do not have or post them.
To address these problems, the Grand Jury recommends that:
1. Cities, the County, and RethinkWaste should host monthly in-person green cart
enrollment summits for non-compliant businesses and landlords and develop and
implement other compliance strategies.
2. Jurisdictions should develop and implement new ways to make green bins usable in
multi-family dwellings’ and businesses’ narrow or small waste enclosures.
3. To increase transparency and accountability, cities and the County should regularly
publish waste reports with diversion and participation rates on their government websites.
BACKGROUND
On September 19, 2016, Governor Jerry Brown signed Senate Bill 1383 to reduce California’s
methane emissions. This law classifies any person or entity responsible for creating organic
waste as an “organic waste generator” (Short-Lived Climate Pollutants, Cal. Code Regs. tit. 14, §
18982 (2020)). Generators must comply with the law by subscribing to their jurisdiction’s
organic waste collection service or self-hauling organic waste (§ 18984.9 (2020)). If residents or
businesses do not subscribe or self-haul, “a jurisdiction shall impose penalties for violations”
ranging from $50-$500 depending on one or more infractions (§ 18997.2 (2020)). SB 1383
defines jurisdictions as “a city, county, a city and county, or a special district that provides solid
waste collection services.” (§ 18982 (2020)).
The new law builds on previous solid waste management legislation. Assembly Bill 939 was the
first law of its kind to provide a solid waste diversion goal for cities and counties. Each
226
3
2023-2024 San Mateo County Civil Grand Jury
jurisdiction had to divert 50% or more of solid waste from the landfill starting January 1, 2000
through source reduction, recycling, and composting (Cal. Pub. Res. Code § 41780 (1989)). SB
1016 later replaced Assembly Bill (AB) 939 with a per capita disposal rate equivalent to the 50%
annual diversion rate (§ 41780.05 (2008)). In 2011, lawmakers directed businesses that generate
four or more cubic yards of commercial solid waste weekly and multifamily dwellings of five
units or more to recycle (§ 41780.05).

GreenWaste 2023)
California passed SB 1383 to tackle the pervasiveness of organic and recyclable waste in
landfills. In 2021, CalRecycle estimated landfill composition to be 28.4% organic waste
(11,305,710 tons), 15.5% paper (6,193,825 tons), and 13.7% plastic (5,445,299 tons) (2022a).
Failing to divert the majority of reusable materials has polluted the environment Californians
share. From August 2016 to October 2018, landfills were the largest source of methane,
contributing 41% of point source emissions (California Air Resources Board 2019). California’s
track record on recycling and waste emissions has not improved over the years either, as
emissions have increased by 24.4% since 2000 (CARB 2023). If mandatory organic waste
collection successfully diminishes landfill emissions, it will support the struggle against climate
change.
SB 1383 aims to reduce 75% of organic waste disposal from 2014 levels by 2025 (Cal. Health &
Safety Code § 39730.6 (2016)). Signing up for a green composting bin is a key to achieving this
goal. Jurisdictions that do not have the standard three-cart system of garbage (usually gray,
brown, or black cart), recyclables (blue cart), and organics (green cart) can still participate under
certain conditions. For example, a two-cart system with only blue and gray carts can have the
latter contain organics and garbage. Haulers must deliver the mixed waste gray carts “to a facility
that meets or exceeds the organic waste content recovery requirements…” (Cal. Code Regs. tit.
14, § 18984.2 (2020)).
Of the 20 cities in San Mateo County, the state orders 18 to comply with SB 1383. CalRecycle
issued a low-population waiver to Colma and Portola Valley on January 1, 2022 (n.d1.). They
are exempt from enforcing both laws, and were not interviewed for this report.
An earlier investigation on the conditions of landfill capacity inspired this report. In the 2018-
2019 Grand Jury year, jurors released the report “Planning for the County’s Waste Management
Challenges.” They used data from a 2014 CalRecycle analysis to note that organic waste
227
4
2023-2024 San Mateo County Civil Grand Jury
comprised 71% of all waste sent to the landfill in the County (SMC Civil Grand Jury 2019).
Additionally, Republic Services, which operates Ox Mountain Landfill, projected that the landfill
would close by 2034 based on disposal rates (2019). Although the report highlighted the
connection between SB 1383 and landfill capacity, jurors geared their recommendations
predominantly on revising the County Integrated Waste Management Plan. This 2023-2024
report: “The State of Compost Compliance in San Mateo County” is different. It examines how
increasing composting participation in multi-family dwellings and businesses can contribute to
solving the landfill problem.
Economic Factors Impacting SB 1383 Progress
On September 8, 2022, Shereen D’Souza, former CalEPA (California Environmental Protection
Agency) Deputy Secretary, told the Milton Marks Commission that the state missed its 2020
recycling goal. Ms. D’Souza referred to the 50% reduction in organic waste disposal from 2014
levels by 2020 under Health & Safety Code § 39730.6 (2016). This goal was the precursor to the
current 75% organic waste disposal reduction from 2014 levels by 2025 described above. The
Deputy Secretary remarked, “Until this year, CalRecycle’s regulations to meet the organic waste
reduction targets were not enforceable” (D’Souza 2022). She adds, “So, it makes sense that the
2020 diversion rate required in 1383 was not met” (2022).
In the same interview, former CalRecycle Director, Rachel Machi Wagoner, described how far
California missed the mark. Ms. Wagoner said, “As a matter of fact, in 2020, we were roughly a
million tons over our 2014 baseline” (2022). Businesses and residents sent more organics to
landfills in 2020 than six years prior. It might be assumed that the COVID-19 pandemic pushed
Californians to consume more than usual at home given the lockdowns. Yet, 2020 was also a
recessionary year, which decreased some workers’ incomes.
Industrial production and civilian consumption rates are the most consequential causes of landfill
pollution. CalRecycle observed that “a strong correlation between disposal and economic
growth” prevails (2020). In 1989, California’s GDP “was $0.72 trillion” and “statewide
traditional landfill disposal was 44 million tons” (CalRecycle 2020). In 2018, California’s GDP
“rose to $3 trillion” (CalRecycle 2020), while landfill and “disposal-related activities” (see
Glossary) climbed to 46,255,505 tons (CalRecycle 2024).

Louis Fed
During the Great Recession (2007-2009), landfill disposal plummeted by 20.7% in California
(CalRecycle 2020). In 2020, the state’s overall disposal (landfill added to disposal-related
activities) tonnage fell by 7.46% when compared to the 2019 peak (CalRecycle 2024). Per capita
disposal rates, and by extension overall disposal, have risen in the state since 2014 (2024). As the
chart and table below illustrates, the timing of SB 1383 enforcement appears to not have a
significant impact on California reaching its 2020 objective. Curiously, the 2020 surge of organic
waste in landfills occurred while overall disposal fell.

Overall disposal tonnages throughout the 2006-2022 period have not increased alongside the
population. Again, waste deposited at landfills fell 20.7% during the Great Recession in spite of
the population growing by 1.56% (CalRecycle 2020; California Department of Finance 2012).
Even more peculiar is that overall disposal hit rock bottom in 2012, shedding 2.58% of its 2009
volume (2020). Nonetheless, the state’s 2012 population rose by 2.59%, an inverse of landfill
trends, from its 2009 value (California Department of Finance 2022, 2012). Since population
growth and SB 1383 implementation inadequately explain waste patterns, macroeconomic events
are the significant factor governing waste generation. A former CalRecycle executive has
expressed concern over this fact and opined which economic actors spawn the most waste.

Former CalRecycle Director Rachel Machi Wagoner issued an urgent warning in the agency’s
“State of Disposal and Recycling in California for Calendar Year 2020” report. Ms. Wagoner
blamed “an economy driven by resource extraction and single-use disposable products” for
California being on track to miss its 75% recycling goal by 2025 (CalRecycle 2021). She
231

2023-2024 San Mateo County Civil Grand Jury
claimed, “Consumers placing items in the right bin alone will not solve systemic problems like
unrecyclable product designs and a lack of end markets for complex materials” (2021). A
solution the Director proposes is getting “local and private partners” to efficiently collect and
remanufacture the goods “California produces and uses” into new commodities (2021).
Wagoner’s call for reaching the 2025 target focuses on getting manufacturers to sell goods with
recyclable content. Annual reports from CalRecycle partially support this statement because
manufacturers generate the highest proportions of refuse.
Businesses and multi-family dwellings with five or more units produce more landfill waste than
residential properties statewide. For the last three and a half years, 47% to 50% of all refuse in
the state originated from the commercial sector (CalRecycle 2024). Self-haulers contributed 20%
of garbage. Residential properties contributed 30% to 33% (2024). An important distinction is
that the California Code of Regulations labels multi-family dwellings of less than five units as
residential areas (§ 18982 (2020)). Multi-family dwellings with five or more units, then, fall
under the commercial category.

METHODOLOGY
Interviews
The Civil Grand Jury interviewed officials from nine cities: Atherton, Brisbane, Daly City, Half
Moon Bay, Millbrae, Pacifica, San Bruno, South San Francisco, and Woodside.
Instead of interviewing the nine remaining cities directly, the Grand Jury spoke with an official
from the RethinkWaste JPA. Each city has one council member on the Board of Directors
(RethinkWaste n.d. (no date)). Jurors interviewed San Mateo County twice to gather information
on unincorporated areas outside and inside the RethinkWaste service area. Lastly, three haulers
were interviewed (Republic Services, Recology of the Coast, and Recology San Bruno) because
their cities had incomplete data.
Online Public Documents
The CalRecycle and California Air Resources Board websites provided the state’s most recent
recycling rates and landfill composition. RethinkWaste was the only public entity that
disseminated diversion rates for cities and a few unincorporated areas on their agency website.
This jurisdiction provided calendar year quarterly records and diversion rates separated by the
three property types (single-family, multi-family dwellings, and businesses). This makes
comparing performance across cities straightforward.
Private Electronic Documents
During the investigation, various documents unavailable online were collected. These resources
included diversion rate tables, participation rate tables, sample citations, waivers, and non-
compliance notices from 2022 to 2023. The Grand Jury asked haulers, city governments, and the
County government permission to use this data. Some differences were noted in the ways cities
ask haulers to collect data, which made it difficult to compare jurisdictions. A few haulers
combine multi-family dwellings’ participation rates with either single-family homes or
commercial properties. Other haulers furnish quarterly reports over fiscal years instead of
calendar years.
DISCUSSION
The County’s political, legal, and economic organization largely account for the contrast in
diversion and participation rates among the three property types. Based on the 2022 1-Year
American Community Survey, 729,181 people live in San Mateo County, down 4.61% from
2020 (U.S. Census Bureau 2022a). Yet, U.S. Census Bureau population estimates for Woodside
233
10
2023-2024 San Mateo County Civil Grand Jury
and several unincorporated areas were unavailable in 2021 and 2022. California’s Department of
Finance includes these jurisdictions for its January 1, 2024 estimates, putting the total County
population at 741,565 people. 61,538 of these residents live in unincorporated communities, and
they could be the County’s fifth largest city (2024). This large number of unincorporated
residents poses a challenge to County waste management.
Source: E-1 Cities, Counties, and the State Population and Housing Estimates with Annual
Percent Change — January 1, 2023 and 2024
Two special districts and one JPA unite geographically adjacent public agencies to coordinate
and plan for waste management. The South Bayside Waste Management Authority (SBWMA),
known as RethinkWaste, has 11 member agencies spanning from Burlingame to East Palo Alto.
Each city and grouping of unincorporated areas share a single hauler and transfer facility despite
having separate franchise agreements. On the coast, the Granada Community Services District
(GCSD) and the Montara Water and Sanitary District (MWSD) follow a similar pattern for
unincorporated areas exclusively. Jurors will cover these institutions in the next subsection.
Multi-family dwellings and single-family homes have unequal responsibilities for organics
collection enrollment and proper waste disposal. Residents of single-family homes and
multifamily complexes of less than five units individually subscribe to their jurisdiction’s
organic waste collection service. In contrast, multi-family dwellings owners or managers are
234
11
2023-2024 San Mateo County Civil Grand Jury
responsible for enrolling in organic waste collection services on behalf of tenants and employees.
Multi-family dwelling and business owners “must supply and allow access to an adequate
number, size, and location of containers” with the correct labels or colors (CalRecycle n.d3.).
Furthermore, they must annually educate tenants and employees on proper organic waste sorting.
Lastly, owners or managers must distribute information to new tenants within 14 days of
occupying the premises (n.d4.).
Cities have pursued a policy of maximizing single-family homes’ participation rates.
Homeowners in every San Mateo County city benefit from having blue and green carts included
in the price of garbage collection (Table 2 links). Unfortunately, tenants countywide do not have
green carts included in the price of garbage collection, except in San Bruno (Table 2 links).
Hence, rental property owners or managers must add a green cart for the same or discounted
price as their gray cart. This barrier to participation poses another threat to the county’s waste
diversion efforts.
San Mateo County’s tenants play a decisive role in diverting as much waste as possible. In 2022,
renters in San Mateo County made up 38.77% (278,126 out of 717,387) of the total population in
occupied housing units (U.S. Census Bureau 2022b). Five cities have an owner-occupied
population proportion less than the current state baseline of 58.27%. Another seven cities have
an owner-occupied population proportion less than the national average of 68.37% (U.S. Census
Bureau 2022b). The County’s substantial renter population indicates their waste disposal
practices and green cart participation can either enhance or counteract homeowners’ or
businesses’ diversion endeavors. Although cities can be commended for expediting green cart
enrollment for homeowners, they could have worked with haulers to make tenant organic waste
collection easier.

San Mateo County’s Waste Management Landscape
Most haulers currently have franchise agreements with JPAs, cities, and the County to collect,
transport, and dispose of waste. Franchise areas consist of municipalities or special districts that
use their bulk purchasing power to negotiate waste collection rates with a hauler (SMC
Sustainability Department n.d. (no date)). Each of the franchised haulers also operate in
unincorporated areas as part of or apart from existing agreements. Kunz Valley Trash has a non-
exclusive franchise agreement with San Mateo County (n.d2.), and alongside Peninsula Sanitary
Service, Inc., operates solely in unincorporated communities. The following table lists the six
haulers operating in San Mateo County, along with their properties. All haulers offer the full
range of waste collection; Kunz Valley Trash clients do not have bins and instead must place
their waste in bags (n.d1.).

Cities and their Properties’ Organic Waste Streams
Historically, businesses have generated more refuse than homeowners in the County, even
though the latter produces more waste overall. During and after the COVID-19 pandemic,
however, single-family homes made more refuse and overall waste than businesses. From 2011-
2019, homeowners in the RethinkWaste JPA diverted more organic waste tons than garbage tons
sent to the landfill (Recology San Mateo County 2024, 2023, 2021). The bar chart below also
demonstrates that homeowners have continuously recycled more than businesses. In 2020 and
subsequent years, though, residences still diverted more waste in spite of overtaking businesses

in trash sent to landfill. Employees from Republic Services and RethinkWaste were interviewed
to explain why this area of the County has this trend and how it differs from other regions.

Note: Atherton was a member of RethinkWaste until January 1, 2021; years before 2021 include
their tonnages.
RethinkWaste homeowners have higher diversion rates and refuse tons compared to businesses
because of takeout and yard waste tonnages. A RethinkWaste representative explained, “We still
have a lot of people working from home. We have a lot of businesses that continue to be remote
and… are not fully staffed in the way that they were pre-pandemic” (2023). This comment partly
reflects two phenomena shown on the chart above. First, it aligns with businesses diverting
increased amounts of organic waste throughout the 2010s, only for tonnages to fall in 2020.
Second, it accounts for the record organic waste diversion homeowners contributed in 2020.
Expanding on the RethinkWaste view, businesses constantly diverted more organic waste
throughout the 2010s because people ate at restaurants more often. Similarly, falling
unemployment rates during the period (U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics 2024) meant more
workers ate lunch at their jobs. Once more, the chart displays both factors at work because
businesses have been steadily increasing their tons of diverted organic waste post-pandemic. As
for the homeowners, the unprecedented organic waste diverted in 2020 probably came from
240
17
2023-2024 San Mateo County Civil Grand Jury
increased takeout from eateries and bulk purchases from grocery stores. It is obvious these
activities existed before the pandemic, but food consumption alone does not explain why single-
family homes eclipse businesses in regard to organic waste.
Yard trimmings inflate the weight of organic waste for single-family homes in the RethinkWaste
JPA and other cities on the bay compared to coastal communities. This was noted by an official
from Republic Services - a hauler covering Daly City, Colma, and Half Moon Bay. The official
noted, “Even though more residents are participating in recycling, ... [Daly City does] not have
the yards that, let’s say, a San Mateo or a Redwood City house [does]” (2024). The interviewee
resumed, “Because diversion is calculated based on weights, they don’t have that yard waste, the
grass clippings and stuff that add a lot of weight to the material” (2024). Daly City’s 2023 waste
statistics support this claim, as recycling, rather than organics, is the majority of diverted
material. Half Moon Bay’s single-family homes probably have greater lawn space than Daly City
since the opposite is true.

Republic Services.

2023-2024 San Mateo County Civil Grand Jury
A lack of lawns, gardens, or yards among certain single-family homes does not mean they are
stuck with low diversion rates. The Republic Services official made an observation that can
apply to all property types, regardless of green space dimensions. Our interviewee stressed that
cities “can throw [green] carts out at everybody,” but residents may not use them or contaminate
the cart “so much that it becomes trash” (2024). Single-family homes can improve their current
organic waste diversion practices just like their counterparts in multi-family dwellings.
Nevertheless, Atherton, Portola Valley, and Woodside have an easier job hitting higher diversion
rates because of their huge green spaces. Moreover, they are the only cities with a high diversion
organic waste processing facility thanks to their hauler’s two-cart system (GreenWaste n.d.).
The table below, however, shows that neither green spaces nor a two-cart system recover all
organics. Each city has 100% participation in commercial and residential accounts due to the
two-cart system, which allows food and refuse in gray carts. An employee from the town of
Woodside acknowledged that people “... could be putting food waste into the yard trimmings,”
but if they follow the process, “there shouldn’t be contamination” (2024). Likewise, the
composting facility may have “residuals that don’t compost and those go to the landfill” (2024).
A similar scenario would be waste at the materials recovery facility (MRF) that is not recyclable
or compostable, which also gets sent to the landfill.

The exact percentage of yard trimmings or food waste that became trash due to contamination is
unknown. But, improper waste sorting is a possibility even in communities with predominantly
single-family housing. Atherton, Portola Valley, and Woodside only have 20, 36, and 51
commercial accounts within their boundaries respectively (GreenWaste 2023). Still, these minute
figures, compared to the thousands of residential accounts, drastically affected diversion rates.
Atherton’s total diversion rate stood at 87.39%, while Portola Valley and Woodside had 60.37%
and 69.69%, respectively (GreenWaste 2023). After looking at these statistics, it could be
242
19
2023-2024 San Mateo County Civil Grand Jury
deduced that contamination exists in single-family homes and businesses, though one setting
may encourage this behavior more than the other.
Yard waste may not be the sole determinant of the differences between cities' organic waste
diversion. Cities in the northern part of the county have participation rates and waste streams not
entirely influenced by yard waste. Daly City and the five cities in the chart below have owner-
occupied housing populations above the state average (U.S. Census Bureau 2022a, 2022b). As a
result, they have more single-family waste management accounts than commercial and multi-
family dwellings combined (South SF Scavenger 2024, San Bruno 2024, Pacifica n.d.). Still,
four out of five cities have diversion rates below 45% even though their single-family
participation rates are above 90% (South SF Scavenger 2024, San Bruno 2024, Pacifica n.d.).
If homeowners truly separate waste better than renters or restaurant clientele, then their efforts
should have raised overall diversion rates closer to 50% at least. These cities do not separate
waste streams by property type to identify if their single-family homes generate more waste than
businesses or multi-family dwellings.

Indeed, giving everyone a green cart or adopting a two-cart model does not mean more organic
waste will escape the landfill. Supplying homeowners, renters, and businesses with equal green
cart access, and appropriate waste separation, is still important. These fixes are in our Findings
and Recommendations sections. The broader point is that SB 1383 compliance works well if
cities and counties modify their outreach and recordkeeping practices to bolster organic waste
diversion. If San Mateo County and its cities consistently track businesses’ and multi-family
dwellings’ waste trends, and base their outreach around this data, then organic waste diversion
should be straightforward.
Data Discrepancies
While not a primary focus of the investigation, the Grand Jury learned of a major discrepancy in
the way South San Francisco Scavenger and its client cities compile tonnage data. Brisbane’s
2022 Electronic Annual Report (EAR) to CalRecycle, which measures several compliance
activities, puts the diversion rate at 64% (Edgar and Associates 2023a). The hauler contracted a
consulting firm, Edgar and Associates, to prepare the report (Interview with Brisbane 2022).
When the hauler gave the Grand Jury its diversion rate report for 2023, the metric stood at
39.11% (South SF Scavenger). South San Francisco’s 2022 EAR had dual diversion rates of 74%
and 66% (Edgar and Associates 2023b), while the hauler’s 2023 document recorded 42.91%
(South SF Scavenger 2024). This report based each cities’ tons and diversion rates, shown in the
chart above, on the hauler’s data.
Inconsistent diversion rate reporting continued in other cities and communication channels.
Brisbane’s “Waste and Recycling” page on its official website asserts that the city diverts “76%
of the waste generated by residents and businesses” (n.d.). South San Francisco Scavenger also
provided conflicting data with Millbrae’s 2023 diversion rates. The fourth quarter report the
hauler sent the city listed a 37.65% diversion rate, but the version they gave to jurors read
54.14% (South SF Scavenger 2023). Cities in the South San Francisco Scavenger area exemplify
the risks of relying on haulers too much for data collection. Having conflicting figures for waste
diversion does not help cities accurately assess the progress they have made for SB 1383
compliance.
Brisbane, Millbrae, and South San Francisco should reconcile tonnage reports with their haulers
to verify which figures are correct. Assuming the cities did experience a massive decline in waste
diversion in a year, this occurrence would still be unusual. An investigation into diversion rates
does not adversely affect the per capita disposal rates these cities send to the state. Fixing these
errors is important so city governments know what proportion of all waste is organics, recycling,
or garbage over time. It is highly likely these mistakes come from the sophisticated way Edgar
and Associates converts the per capita disposal rates to regular diversion rates. They present their
equation below.
244
21
2023-2024 San Mateo County Civil Grand Jury
Equation 2. Edgar and Associates Diversion Rate Conversion from Per Capita Disposal Rates
(Source: Edgar and Associates 2023a)
Republic Services, Recology of San Mateo County, and GreenWaste have a much simpler
equation that does not involve converting the per capita disposal rate. These haulers merely add
the total tons of recycling, organics, and rubbish they collect to get a diversion rate.
[(R+O)/(R+O+S)] * 100 = Diversion Rate %
R: Recycling tons, O: Organic tons, S: Solid Waste tons
(Sources: Republic Services 2024a and 2024b, Recology San Mateo County Q4 2023 Report,
GreenWaste 2023)
If the difference in calculations explains the unequal diversion rates, the simpler diversion rate
formula would be preferable. Cities should negotiate with their haulers to have them compute
these percentages in quarterly or annual reports separate from the EAR. Such a change reduces
Edgar and Associates’ EAR workload and leaves cities with one reliable waste diversion
245
22
2023-2024 San Mateo County Civil Grand Jury
measure. Brisbane, Millbrae, and South San Francisco will also have the opportunity to compare
their metrics with fellow governments that use the same methods. The simpler method, using
Scavenger’s tons, should yield the same diversion rates jurors obtained in the last chart.
If diversion rates are unequal because of varying tonnage measurements from the hauler, cities
should investigate Scavenger’s transfer station scales. Scavenger’s 2023 fourth quarter report to
Millbrae had 1,116.78 tons more in its total tonnage than in the annual report it gave to jurors.
Another scenario would be that the hauler gave the Grand Jury and Millbrae different data.
Either way, Millbrae (and its sister cities, if applicable) should scrutinize weights measured at the
transfer station to pinpoint if Scavenger furnishes contradictory data.
In the previous graph, five cities were included as not dividing their waste streams by property
type. Atherton, Portola Valley, and Woodside are similar in this regard because they only divide
recyclables by single-family homes and businesses (GreenWaste 2023). We recommend cities of
the GreenWaste, South San Francisco Scavenger, Recology of the Coast, and Recology San
Bruno areas begin dividing their data by the three property types. The County cannot continue
having contradictory forms of waste generation reporting. Aggregate waste reports prevent local
governments from seeing how severely economic turmoil causes businesses’ diversion rates to
tumble. On the same note, South San Francisco, Recology of the Coast, and Recology San Bruno
cities do not know how serious renter turnover might affect multi-family diversion rates.
Cities in these hauler areas should have a comfortable transition into segregating organics,
recycling, and solid waste streams by three property types. Pacifica, Atherton, Portola Valley,
Woodside, and Brisbane have owner-occupied housing populations larger than the national
average. Meanwhile, South San Francisco, San Bruno, and Millbrae have owner-occupied
housing populations larger than the state average. In other words, these cities are mostly
residential, and their haulers can discern where refuse and organic tons originate. If haulers have
the technical and infrastructural capabilities to portray a waste management story, cities should
not be in the dark. Jurors and cities had to ask haulers for either participation rates or diversion
rates throughout the investigation.
If haulers and cities do not have the resources necessary to split waste into three property types,
they can come up with a long-term plan to do so. Currently, jurisdictions must conduct “annual
visual inspections” called “route reviews,” in which they randomly inspect “containers for
contamination on all collection routes” (CalRecycle n.d2.). Following these inspections,
jurisdictions must “notify all generators on the sampled hauler routes and provide education on
proper material separation” (n.d2.). In San Mateo County, Republic Services, Recology of the
Coast, and South San Francisco Scavenger “lid flip” bins to check for contamination (Interviews
2024). Republic Services leaves tags on contaminated residential bins and calls businesses and
multi-family dwellings about it (Interviews 2024).
246
23
2023-2024 San Mateo County Civil Grand Jury
Waste evaluations are conducted at least in two distinct seasons of the year [per 14 CCR section
18984.5(c)]” (CalRecycle n.d2.). If jurisdictions find more than 25% contamination in any
container type, they can perform “a targeted route review of containers… to determine sources of
contamination (n.d3.). Later, they notify and provide education to those generating
contamination” (n.d3.). Local governments should increase the frequency of waste evaluations,
specifically on routes with high levels of contamination. Jurisdictions will use their outreach
capabilities more efficiently this way.
All documentation of route reviews must be stored in the state’s Implementation Record
(CalRecycle n.d2.). Some of the information included are Notices of Violation and penalty order
copies. These documents must be accompanied by a list of dates acknowledging entities have
complied with warnings or sanctions (CalRecycle n.d2.). Jurisdictions must include “a
description of the hauler route and addresses covered by a route review” (n.d2.).
Instead of simply preserving time sensitive data, the Grand Jury suggests jurisdictions analyze
past and current contamination trends in problem routes. Cities that struggle splitting diversion
rates and waste tons by property type can use this method to track their progress at minimizing
organic waste contamination. Perhaps cities will improve their organic waste diversion results if
they implement these changes.
Local governments cannot leave their residents in the dark as well. If citizens pay for waste
collection service, they have the right to know how well each property type separates waste.
None of the entities interviewed, except RethinkWaste, had copies of annual or quarterly waste
reports on their government websites. Brisbane, Woodside, and Pacifica are some examples of
cities that had no idea why their haulers do not separate waste by three property types (2024).
Jurors propose cities publish any past, present, and future waste statistics on their government
websites following this report’s release.
The Civil Grand Jury recommends setting a waste reporting standard across the County. Without
a common measurement, cities might not reduce 75% of organic waste disposal from 2014 levels
by 2025. Jurors understand the state imposed this goal on itself and not on individual
jurisdictions. Nonetheless, if the County adopts a mentality of consistently increasing diversion
rates, citizens will reap the social savings. If cities keep increasing the price of garbage collection
(DiNapoli 2024, Mata 2024) for the same amount of landfill tons, then methane emissions will
not abate.
Barriers Exclusive to Businesses and Multi-Family Dwellings
Multi-family dwellings and businesses cannot match the participation and diversion rates of
single-family homes due to socioeconomic and infrastructural problems. One Sustainability

Department official said since “tenants sometimes cycle in and out every year… the resources
involved to do… outreach [for] a multi-family building” is very “intensive” (2024). Another
important component is that residents who live in apartments with trash chutes “have to find
different ways to compost or set up bins in separate areas” (2024). Meanwhile, businesses may
welcome irregular clients who “don’t know what the rules are” (2024). In spite of these
disadvantages, multi-family dwellings in the RethinkWaste area have steadily increased their
compost and recycling tons over the last decade (Recology San Mateo County 2024, 2023,
2021). Some city governments have even worked around these problems altogether.
Sources: Recology San Mateo County Q4 2023 Report, Recology San Mateo County Annual
Report 2022, Recology San Mateo County Annual Report 2020
Rising recycling and organic tons for multi-family dwellings over the years indicate that tenants
strive to segregate waste properly. Unlike businesses, waste generation in multi-family dwellings
does not rise and fall based on economic booms or busts. Crucially, renter turnover has not
created drastic ebb and flow patterns for tonnage. Aside from landlord willingness, building age
is very likely to be multi-family dwellings’ greatest barrier to increasing green bin participation.
According to the U.S. Census Bureau, 65.36% of existing renter-occupied housing units are from
before 1980 (2022c). Cities must consider the difficulty of setting up green bins among older
apartment buildings using trash chutes.
248
25
2023-2024 San Mateo County Civil Grand Jury
San Bruno pursues a novel strategy for multi-family dwellings’ organic waste collection
compared to other cities. A Recology of San Bruno official finds that larger apartment
complexes have a harder time complying. The hauler works with landlords to find the best
location for green carts “to make it very simple for the residents” (2024). Better yet, the local
government treats “multi-family as residential, and there is no cost for the multi-families in San
Bruno to participate” (2024). Including green bin service in the price of standard refuse
collection has brought 73% of multi-family dwellings in compliance with SB 1383 (San Bruno
2024). As of March 13, 2024, 109 multi-family dwellings remain non-compliant (Recology of
San Bruno).
Interviews with several cities confirm that they require new property developments to provide
enough space for the three-cart system. Pacifica, Daly City, Millbrae, and all RethinkWaste cities
have their planning departments partner with haulers to review building plans (2024). A South
San Francisco city employee stated that the city and hauler reviews waste enclosure spaces for
new businesses but not multi-family dwellings (2024). Given that Woodside does not have multi-
family dwellings, the city scrutinizes building plans for new commercial properties only (2024).
City officials from Brisbane and Half Moon Bay were uncertain about how municipal
departments handle new development reviews (2024).
If cities can prepare future infrastructure with the waste enclosures they need, it should be
possible for them to start doing the same for existing, non-compliant multi-family dwellings.
RethinkWaste is already ahead of the curve on this front and hopes to build on the San Bruno
model. On March 14, 2024, RethinkWaste’s Technical Advisory Committee (TAC) announced
that Recology of San Mateo “was open to a town hall format” to increase participation. At the
next TAC meeting, the agency declared it will send invitational emails to businesses and multi-
family dwellings for “virtual or in-person” SB 1383 compliance presentations held in June
(2024). It is unknown at this point if any landlords or business owners have accepted such
invitations or if the agency has begun holding these meetings.
RethinkWaste presently makes phone calls and letters to non-compliant property types (2024).
City employees from Brisbane, South San Francisco, and Daly City have disclosed that outreach
activities include releasing newsletters, emails, and social media posts (2024). A Half Moon Bay
staff member reported that the city received a grant from CalRecycle to give non-compliant
businesses green bins across downtown (2024). A Recology of the Coast official says they
distribute flyers and mailers and work with a compliance officer in Pacifica (2024).
The Civil Grand Jury appreciates the massive resource and labor mobilization from haulers and
cities to perform these activities. Yet, these actions have consumed significant time in relation to
meaningful effects. The scatter plots and tables below for jurisdictions inside and outside the
RethinkWaste area describe the unfinished participation progress for multi-family dwellings and
249

businesses. Even if the visual data included properties with waivers, hauler data reveals that
many properties are still without organics collection. Daly City, Half Moon Bay, and their
hauler, Republic Services, did not give the Grand Jury reliable participation rate data.

2024 Participation Rate Tables (see Appendix)
Both scatter plots affirm the assumption that high participation rates to organic waste collection
does not increase the share of organic waste in total tonnages. The weak coefficients of
determination (R2) tell us that green bin enrollment explains less than 50% of changes in organic
waste proportions for businesses and multi-family dwellings. Multi-family dwellings in the
RethinkWaste area have the most alarming statistic: less than 10% of their total waste tons are
organic waste. It would appear that cities may have consciously or unconsciously prioritized one
property type over another. For instance, San Mateo County enrolled twice as many multi-family
dwellings for green cart service in the County Franchised Area (CFA) than its businesses.
The scatter plots also reveal that San Mateo County has stranded North Fair Oaks in the SB 1383
compliance process. Businesses and multi-family dwellings in the community have the lowest
participation rates and organic waste proportions in the entire RethinkWaste JPA. It is
unacceptable for a County tract with a compact area to have less resources than its neighbors. At
the Discussion’s onset, the hurdles unincorporated regions pose for compliance were described.
North Fair Oaks has similar participation statistics like its coastal counterparts in the Granada
Community Services District (GCSD) and Montara Water and Sanitary District (MWSD).
RethinkWaste and San Mateo County can combine their resources to level the playing field
within the JPA.

One recommendation is that RethinkWaste and non-JPA cities have a mass enrollment summit
for multi-family dwellings and businesses. Solving the problem means holding these meetings at
regular intervals until there is 100% green cart participation rate for both property types. On-site
enrollment, rather than virtual presentations, holds property managers and business owners
accountable. Public agencies need to receive input from the parties to address the troubles
keeping them from enrolling. Cities, the County, and RethinkWaste can advise these individuals
on cost-effective green cart adoption. Jurisdictions should explicitly state that monetary penalties
are inevitable unless they attend these green bin enrollment summits.
If renters perfectly segregated their waste, a high percentage of the stream would be organic
material, much like that of homeowners. Daly City’s multi-family dwellings, surprisingly, were
the only ones in the County to have higher diversion rates than single-family homes thanks to
thousands of diverted tons of organic waste. Multi-family dwellings diverted 57% of their waste
while single-family homes diverted 48% (Republic Services 2024a). When interviewed, a
representative from Republic Services said that an arduous program explained the phenomenon.
Presently, the hauler pulls “organics out of the trash,” which is “not a very good” and “costly
system” (2024). The representative predicted the “program is likely going… away, so we’ll be
doing something different with our multifamily” (2024).

*Daly City’s data is from Q1 and Q2 of fiscal year 2023-2024 (July 1, 2023 to January 30, 2024)
Note: Data for both cities are not publicly available. Jurors retrieved the information by
requesting it from Republic Services.
Despite this inefficient system causing high diversion rates for multi-family dwellings, it proves
that tenants generate more organic waste than rubbish. Jurisdictions should not consider getting
renters to sort waste properly a lost cause, for this data proves that contamination is responsible
for low diversion rates. High subscription rates for green cart service and apartment buildings
with distant waste enclosures contribute to low participation rates. The Sustainability Department
interviewee remarked, “Sometimes these landlords…vary in how easy they are to implement
things like [organic waste collection]” (2024). The official added, “especially if it hits their
bottom line about increased costs for adding compost to recycling service” (2024). It is highly
recommended that haulers put signage on green carts if they do not have this practice already.

FINDINGS
F1. High green cart enrollment costs and insufficient bin space are the dominant contributors to
low participation rates among multi-family dwellings and businesses.
F2. Green bin contamination among compliant multi-family dwellings and businesses prevents
them from diverting more organic waste.
F3. City, County, and RethinkWaste compliance outreach efforts for multi-family dwellings and
businesses could improve because a significant portion of these properties remain non-compliant.
F4. Multi-family dwellings and businesses produce a significant amount of the County’s organic
waste.
F5. Citizens cannot conveniently access reliable diversion and participation rates because JPAs
and cities do not make the information available on their government websites.
F6. Assessing progress on organic waste diversion in Atherton, Brisbane, Millbrae, Pacifica, San
Bruno, South San Francisco, and Woodside is difficult because they and their haulers do not
separate waste tons by property type on their annual or quarterly reports.
F7. An alternate and reliable method to separating waste tons by property type would be
analyzing contamination statistics from route audits and waste evaluations.
F8. Brisbane, South San Francisco, and Millbrae cannot properly track their waste trends since
their hauler and contractor have contradictory diversion rate formulas and tonnage
measurements.
RECOMMENDATIONS
R1. Beginning March 1, 2025, cities, the County, and RethinkWaste should host regular in-
person green cart enrollment summits for non-compliant businesses and multi-family dwellings,
and identify other new compliance strategies.
R2. Beginning January 1, 2025, Brisbane, South San Francisco, and Millbrae should investigate
their Electronic Annual Report contractor’s diversion rate conversion formulas and their hauler’s
waste scales.
256

2023-2024 San Mateo County Civil Grand Jury
R3. By July 1, 2025, Brisbane, South San Francisco, and Millbrae should begin using the simpler
diversion rate calculation the report mentioned or develop a contingency plan if their hauler’s
scales are inaccurate.
R4. Beginning November 30, 2024, cities should publish quarterly or annual waste reports with
diversion and participation rates on their government websites.
R5. Beginning December 31, 2024, cities should separate waste tons and diversion rates into the
three (or two) property types (business, residential, multi-family) in their annual or quarterly
reports.
R6. Starting April 1, 2025, cities that cannot separate waste tons and diversion rates by property
type should conduct waste evaluations on highly contaminated routes more often.
R7. Starting May 1, 2025, cities that cannot separate waste tons and diversion rates by property
type should analyze problematic routes’ past and present contamination trends to track their
progress.
R8. By February 1, 2025, jurisdictions should develop and implement new ways to make green
bins usable in multi-family dwellings’ and businesses’ narrow or small waste enclosures.

Subject: Response to 2023-2024 Grand Jury July 11, 2024 report, “The State of Compost
Compliance in San Mateo County”
Thank you for the opportunity to review and provide feedback on the Grand Jury's findings. This
letter serves as the official response from the City of South San Francisco to the findings and
recommendations outlined in the report. Please be advised that this response was approved by the
South San Francisco City Council during its meeting on September 11, 2024.
FINDINGS
F1. High green cart enrollment costs and insufficient bin space are the dominant contributors to
low participation rates among multi-family dwellings and businesses.
Response to F1 - The City disagrees with this Finding. The City and SSF Scavenger work
with multi-family dwellings and businesses on waste analysis to determine reduced size of grey
cart for landfill if green bin is added, therefore reducing the cost and ensuring compliance with SB
1383 requirements. Regarding insufficient cart space, there is an option to waive green cart
enrollment with a Physical Space Waiver for accounts that demonstrate that the premises lacks
adequate space for the collection containers; the City of South San Francisco has issued 20
Physical Space waivers.
F2. Green bin contamination among compliant multi-family dwellings and businesses prevents
them from diverting more organic waste.
Response to F2 - The City agrees with this Finding; correct sorting at the source does
maximize diversion. If there is significant contamination, the cart/bin is tagged and not serviced,
which encourages re-sorting at the source. In the case of minimal contamination, our hauler’s de-
packaging system can assist in extracting organic materials.

F3. City, County, and RethinkWaste compliance outreach efforts for multi-family dwellings and
businesses could improve because a significant portion of these properties remain non-compliant.
Response to F3 - The City agrees with this Finding. Extensive outreach (such as phone
calls, multi-lingual letters, site visits, instructional signs, tote bags, kitchen pails, recycling guides,
newsletters, social media campaigns and in-person training sessions) has previously been
conducted and is ongoing. The City can increase enforcement at this point.
F4. Multi-family dwellings and businesses produce a significant amount of the County’s organic
waste.
Response to F4 - The City agrees with this Finding.
F5. Citizens cannot conveniently access reliable diversion and participation rates because JPAs
and cities do not make the information available on their government websites.
Response to F5 - The City agrees with this Finding. As far as staff are aware, there is no
requirement from CalRecycle for jurisdictions to provide this information; we are awaiting
confirmation from their staff. CalRecycle’s website provides jurisdictional data including
diversion rates. If the City had received requests for diversion and participation rates by citizens,
the City would have provided the data to them. We will make data available on City website per
R4 below.
F6. Assessing progress on organic waste diversion in Atherton, Brisbane, Millbrae, Pacifica, San
Bruno, South San Francisco, and Woodside is difficult because they and their haulers do not
separate waste tons by property type on their annual or quarterly reports.
Response to F6 - The City partially disagrees with this Finding. Progress can be assessed
in different ways. As far as we are aware, CalRecycle does not require reporting by property type;
we are awaiting confirmation from their staff. The hauler tracks progress using lid flipping to
monitor contamination levels, participation rates across the entire customer base, and overall
diversion by tonnage across all waste streams.
F7. An alternate and reliable method to separating waste tons by property type would be analyzing
contamination statistics from route audits and waste evaluations.
Response to F7 - The City agrees with this Finding. Lid flipping has been the primary way
to identify contamination. Our hauler is currently sampling organic waste streams for
contamination, and they follow up with any generators that have contamination.
F8. Brisbane, South San Francisco, and Millbrae cannot properly track their waste trends since
their hauler and contractor have contradictory diversion rate formulas and tonnage measurements.
Response to F8 - The City disagrees with this Finding. The methodology of calculating
diversion rate as reported in the EAR (Electronic Annual Report) is as required by the State of
California and has been used consistently so trends over time can be observed. The tonnage the
279
hauler collects and diverts feeds into the jurisdiction diversion rate calculated in the EAR. Since
the Grand Jury used a completely different formula, it is to be expected that they would have a
different result.
RECOMMENDATIONS
R1. Beginning March 1, 2025, cities, the County, and RethinkWaste should host regular inperson
green cart enrollment summits for non-compliant businesses and multi-family dwellings, and
identify other new compliance strategies.
Response to R1 - The recommendation will not be implemented. The hauler already goes
directly to the generators site to make hands-on recommendations and provide education.
R2. Beginning January 1, 2025, Brisbane, South San Francisco, and Millbrae should investigate
their Electronic Annual Report contractor’s diversion rate conversion formulas and their hauler’s
waste scales.
Response to R2 - The recommendation has been implemented. It has been verified that the
haulers scales are accurate.
R3. By July 1, 2025, Brisbane, South San Francisco, and Millbrae should begin using the simpler
diversion rate calculation the report mentioned or develop a contingency plan if their hauler’s
scales are inaccurate.
Response to R3 - The recommendation has been implemented. It has been verified that the
haulers scales are accurate.
R4. Beginning November 30, 2024, cities should publish quarterly or annual waste reports with
diversion and participation rates on their government websites.
Response to R4 - The recommendation will be implemented. The City will post annual
diversion and participation rates from our Electronic Annual Report required by CalRecycle on the
City’s website by November 30 each year.
R5. Beginning December 31, 2024, cities should separate waste tons and diversion rates into the
three (or two) property types (business, residential, multi-family) in their annual or quarterly
reports.
Response to R5 - The recommendation will not be implemented. All waste generators that
are non-compliant or contaminate waste streams are targeted individually. If data was to be split
into categories there is a significant grey area in making the determination between commercial
vs. multifamily vs. residential. For example, mixed-use properties with retail on the ground floor
and housing above.
280
R6. Starting April 1, 2025, cities that cannot separate waste tons and diversion rates by property
type should conduct waste evaluations on highly contaminated routes more often.
Response to R6 - The recommendation has been implemented. The hauler conducts waste
reviews and revisits problem addresses. The hauler has found commercial front load bins for
organics and recycling to be most problematic and therefore has focused on this type.
R7. Starting May 1, 2025, cities that cannot separate waste tons and diversion rates by property
type should analyze problematic routes’ past and present contamination trends to track their
progress.
Response to R7 - This recommendation has yet to be implemented but will be implemented
in the future. The City will work with its hauler to analyze problematic routes’ past and present
contamination trends to track their progress starting May 1, 2025 or earlier.
R8. By February 1, 2025, jurisdictions should develop and implement new ways to make green
bins usable in multi-family dwellings’ and businesses’ narrow or small waste enclosures.
Response to R8 - This recommendation has been implemented. The hauler provides
various sized bins for organic waste, including various sized carts (32gal - 96gal) and front-end
load style (1yd - 4yd). For multi-family dwellings, the City and hauler also provide small kitchen
pails to help with transport of organic waste to make the green bins more usable.

Subject: Response to 2023-2024 Grand Jury July 11, 2024 report, “The State of Compost
Compliance in San Mateo County”
Thank you for the opportunity to review and provide feedback on the Grand Jury's findings. This
letter serves as the official response from the City of South San Francisco to the findings and
recommendations outlined in the report. Please be advised that this response was approved by the
South San Francisco City Council during its meeting on September 11, 2024.
FINDINGS
F1. High green cart enrollment costs and insufficient bin space are the dominant contributors to
low participation rates among multi-family dwellings and businesses.
Response to F1 - The City disagrees with this Finding. The City and SSF Scavenger work
with multi-family dwellings and businesses on waste analysis to determine reduced size of grey
cart for landfill if green bin is added, therefore reducing the cost and ensuring compliance with SB
1383 requirements. Regarding insufficient cart space, there is an option to waive green cart
enrollment with a Physical Space Waiver for accounts that demonstrate that the premises lacks

TITLE
Report regarding the formation of the Eastern Neighborhoods Community Facilities District (Christina
Fernandez, Deputy City Manager; Jason Wong, Deputy Finance Director; Noah Christman, Lighthouse Public
Affairs; Daniel Jacobson, Fehr & Peers; Susan Goodwin, Goodwin Consulting Group; and Brian Forbath,
Stradling,Yocca,Carlson,& Rauth)
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended City Council receive an update on the Eastern Neighborhoods Community Facilities
District (CFD) and continue the process with a subsequent City Council meeting adopting a Resolution of
Intention, setting forth the City’s intention to establish a CFD.
BACKGROUND
The City of South San Francisco is proudly known as the Industrial City and the Birthplace of Biotechnology. Both
uses have intensified over the years with the East of 101 as an economic hub in San Mateo County. Land uses range
from life science and biotechnology to light industrial manufacturing and warehousing. Despite the variety of uses,
the future success of this economic engine requires modernization and investment in transportation infrastructure to
remain economically competitive.
In 2019, the City began efforts to improve and modernize transportation infrastructure East of Highway 101 through
the creation of the East of 101 CFD. Despite having sufficient property owner support, the COVID-19 pandemic
created economic uncertainty for all stakeholders. Thus, these efforts were put on hold with the intention of
restarting efforts post-pandemic.
In 2022, the City participated in the Oyster Point Mobility Vision Plan, an employer led effort by Oyster Point
property owners. This effort provided property owners the opportunity to give their feedback on potential
transportation improvements East of Highway 101. These meetings provided the City the opportunity to hear
directly from Oyster Point property owners on their transportation needs. These meetings recommended with the
City’s transportation master plans laid the groundwork for a new iteration of a Community Facilities District
renamed the Eastern Neighborhoods Community Facilities District.
The need for infrastructure improvements East of 101 remains as it did in 2019. At the time, the City anticipated
employment growth of 55,000 workers by 2040, a near doubling of employment growth. Despite a global
pandemic, the City’s General Plan now estimates a near tripling of employment growth of 101,000 workers East
of 101 by 2040. Existing infrastructure is insufficient to handle this growth as it was built for lower intensity
industrial uses. The private sector has expressed a desire to modernize streets to move people safely and
efficiently, providing world-class active transportation and transit infrastructure.

Recommended Traffic and Transit Solutions
The Eastern Neighborhoods CFD (CFD) is made up of projects supported by plans already adopted by the City
including the General Plan, Active South City, and Mobility 20/20. The CFD priority list includes feedback received
from the Oyster Point Mobility Steering Committee. Modifications were also made in response to stakeholder
feedback received during an extensive outreach process.
The CFD takes a holistic approach to address the needs of everyone traveling in the East of 101 Area – including
walking, biking, transit, auto, and freight. A key goal of the CFD is to improve safety and efficiency for all
transportation modes. One example of this is the creation of transit only lanes that separates commuter shuttles and
SamTrans buses from traffic congestion. Another priority goal is for the CFD to benefit everyone, regardless of where
a property is located. With these goals in mind, the prioritization of the project list was made possible with extensive
stakeholder engagement, analysis by transportation planning firm, Fehr & Peers, and thorough review by City staff.
Fehr & Peers, in coordination with City staff, prepared complete street studies of all major street corridors East of 101,
culminating in the preparation of conceptual designs identifying improvement measures for each street. These key
changes improved safety, access, throughput, and connections. The study of all the major street corridors identified
include the modernization of Oyster Point, East Grand, Gateway, Forbes, South Airport, and Utah, access to Caltrain,
new streets and trails. The Study Corridors may be found in Figure 1 below.

Improving the City’s bicycle and pedestrian facilities is another key goal for our East of 101 area. The bicycle
facility study identified 5.4 miles of new separated bikeways and trails and adds or improves eight bikeway
connections across Highway 101. (Figure 2).
Figure 2 – Bicycle Network
291

Transit connectivity is key to the success of the modernization of the East of 101 area and emphasized in all of the
City’s adopted transportation planning master plans. Caltrain’s new electrified service plan will double service
frequency at South San Francisco Station beginning on September 21st, 2024. Prioritizing bus and shuttle connections
along key transit routes such as Oyster Point, East Grand, and South Airport will help funnel riders to and from
Caltrain. The CFD would create 1.6 miles of transit only lanes, 24 bus stop upgrades, and access improvements at the
South San Francisco Caltrain Station and the South San Francisco Ferry Terminal. (Figure 3).
Figure 3 – Transit Priority Corridors

Two high priority corridors, Oyster Point Boulevard and the East Grand Avenue Corridors, were identified by
transportation planners and the Oyster Point Mobility Vision Plan as key areas of study. Improvements to these corridors
will benefit all modes of travel, including cars, transit, bicycles, and pedestrians.
The CFD will also accelerate roadway rehabilitation efforts in the East of 101 area by repaving all city streets,
approximately 17 miles (Figure 4)
Figure 4 – Roadway Rehabilitation
293

Pedestrian improvements incorporating wider sidewalks, landscaping, curb extensions, high-visibility crosswalks,
median refuge islands, gap closures, traffic calming, and other features create walkable neighborhoods East of 101.
Pedestrian improvements would occur throughout the East of 101 Area, especially focusing along key corridors and
nodes consistent with the Active South City Plan (Figure 5).

Priority Project List
As a result of a comprehensive study of the City’s major transportation corridors East of 101, the most significant and
impactful projects were prioritized (Figure 6). These projects are also identified and supported by the City’s master
transportation planning documents: General Plan, Active South City, and Mobility 20/20. Many of these projects were
also identified as priority projects by the Oyster Point Mobility Steering Committee as well as conversations with local
stakeholders. The cost of implementing these projects is estimated to be between $150-$180 million.

DISCUSSION
The City of South San Francisco has seen a variety of industries over its 100-year history. From meatpacking and
steel production to biotechnology and pharmaceuticals, the City has adapted to meet the ever-changing needs of
business. Still affectionately known as the Industrial City, the City is also now home to over 250 biotechnology and
life science companies and is also known as the Birthplace of Biotechnology. The City’s ability to adapt has played a
key role in its success as an economic driver in the region.
South San Francisco remains committed to fostering healthy business relationships, and upon Council’s direction in
March, embarked on an extensive outreach listening session to better understand the challenges facing our business
community and to engage with businesses to find solutions. Conversations included sharing shared challenges and
potential solutions. The potential CFD area is shown as Figure 7.
To meet with 332 property owners covering 479 parcels, the City retained the services of Lighthouse Public Affairs,
which is well known for their expertise in business and community outreach. Outreach was a multiphase effort
spanning from March through August. In March, a mailer was sent to all property owners and the CFD website, ssf-
cfd.com, was launched. In mid to late March, Lighthouse, in consultation with staff, also reached out to property
owners through emails, calls, and by going door-to-door. In April, the City hosted six community town halls both
virtually and in-person during mid-day and evening hours. This was followed by individual follow up conversations
to evaluate stakeholder feedback.
A second round of outreach took place in May and June with another round of mailed letters and mass door-to-door
outreach to all property owners for whom we’d not yet connected with, the City hosting another six community town
halls, dozens of one-on-one follow up meetings, and targeted door knocking. Staff continues to meet with property
owners and tenants to answer questions and respond to their concerns.

Property Owner and Tenant Feedback
The vast majority of property owners agree that traffic is an issue, especially congested along the main corridors
of Oyster Point Boulevard and East Grand Avenue. There is also consensus across all industry types of a need for
greater road safety and improvements. Pavement maintenance was also singled out as a concern.
Most biotechnology and life science companies agree that there is a need for safer corridors, new pavement, and
better connectivity throughout the cluster. Life Science would also like to see all transportation modes prioritized.
The return to work may have been slower than anticipated, however, many biotechnology companies are seeing
more congestion in the hub, especially mid-week. There also appears to be a desire for connectivity via bike and
pedestrian walkways throughout the cluster to allow employees to leave for lunch and walk to nearby restaurants
and amenities on other campuses. City staff have also heard from large tenants who indicate that their employees
enjoy using alternate modes of transportation to commute to work and utilize public transportation and the Bay
Trail.
Warehouse and Industrial uses would also like to see safer corridors and new pavement throughout the East of 101.
Many industrial/warehouse property owners indicate that they are facing many financial burdens, especially for
smaller property owners and their tenants. Warehouse/Industrial property owners also feel that they are paying too
much in taxes. Two property owners indicated that this initiative was designed to push out industrial uses.
Some hotel owner/operators see a value in the CFD and benefits it provides to their guests and extends to their
employees. Finding front line employees is very difficult in the hotel industry and improvements to transportation
infrastructure can make it easier to hire and retain employees in difficult-to-hire positions. Other hoteliers do not
wish to add an additional tax line item onto guests’ hotel bills.
In response to the feedback received from industrial property owners, the City tailored the rate for a more equitable
assessment such that smaller property owners would pay less than larger industrial property owners.
Industrial/warehouse will be broken down by square foot of developed area. Buildings with less than 25,000 square
feet would pay an annual rate of $0.05 per square foot. For the next 25,000 square feet, they would pay an annual
rate of $0.10 per square foot. And for any additional area above 50,000 square feet, the property would be assessed
at $0.15 per square foot annually.
The breakdown of land use type by square footage by land use types are shown in Figure 8 below.

Financial Model
Based upon the feedback received from the business community, below is the recommended CFD financial
assessment by business sector:
Land Use Type Square Footage Maximum Annual Tax Rate (per square
foot)
Life Science/Office Any $0.65
Residential Any $0.25
Warehouse/Industrial/Hotel/Other
Commercial
>50,000 $0.15
25,001–50,000sf $0.10
≤25,000sf $0.05
Assuming this financial model, the CFD could issue 30-year bonds to raise approximately $118 million, dedicated
exclusively to improving transportation and transit which benefits the CFD area. With the escalating revenue stream,
and assuming a 6% interest rate. The assessment proposed is for 35 years, providing the predictable revenue stream
to support bonding for construction costs.
Assessment of Business Support
The CFD currently maintains 1,159 total voting acres, with 765 voting acres being required to hit the 66% approval
threshold. Currently, 32% of the total voting acres are unknown and therefore listed as unknown. Individualized
outreach to these voters, as well as any voters who have yet to provide a firm response in support or opposition of
the CFD, is ongoing.
Feedback collected through numerous meetings with businesses showed strong support for the City’s efforts to
address current and future mobility needs, in general, with more specific comments centering on the cost of the
proposal based on type of business.
How to Form a Community Facilities District (CFD)
Pursuant to the Mello-Roos Community Facilities Act of 1982 (“Mello-Roos Act”), a CFD is a defined geographic
area in which the City is authorized to levy annual special taxes to be used to either finance directly the costs of
specified public improvements and/or public services, or to pay debt service on bonds issued to finance the public
improvements, as well as to pay costs of administering the CFD. CFD formation can be initiated either by a local
agency or via a written petition from the registered voters or owners within a proposed district.
305
19
City staff has engaged the services of Goodwin Consulting Group, Inc. (Goodwin) to perform advisory services
relating to all aspects of initiating and forming the CFD. Goodwin has prepared Mello-Roos cash flow analyses as
various special tax structures and amounts have been considered and has provided City staff with guidance about
alternatives available under the Mello-Roos Act. Additionally, Goodwin will take on the role of Special Tax
Consultant and prepare the “Rate and Method of Apportionment of Special Tax” (RMA) as part of the CFD
formation process. Goodwin has drafted a term sheet outlining the current deal points, which is attached hereto as
Attachment B. Once these deal points are finalized, Goodwin will incorporate the points into the RMA. When the
initial participants in the CFD have been confirmed, Goodwin will also prepare the CFD Boundary Map, which
will ultimately be recorded with the County Recorder after the first legislative action.
The process of establishing a CFD requires at least four City Council meetings:
Meeting Number One: Adoption of two resolutions: a Resolution of Intention (ROI) setting forth the City’s
intention to establish the CFD, designating the name of the CFD, identifying the services and facilities to be
funded by the CFD, stating the City’s intention to levy a special tax annually on property within the CFD to pay for
these services and facilities, and approving the Rate and Method of Apportionment of Special Tax (RMA) for the
CFD, which details how the special tax will be levied on properties within the CFD and sets the maximum special
tax rates that can be levied within the CFD. The ROI also sets the date for the required public hearing (30 to 60 days
later) on the matters set forth in the ROI. The second resolution, a Resolution of Intention to Incur Indebtedness, sets
forth the Council’s intention to issue bonds supported by the special taxes. This resolution also sets a public hearing
for the same date.
Meeting Number Two: Hold the noticed public hearings at a City Council meeting. Following the public hearings,
the City Council is presented with two resolutions: a resolution forming the CFD, and a resolution calling the special
tax election (90 to 180 days later) by the landowner voters within the CFD.
Between meeting number two and meeting number three, ballots will be distributed to owners of property within the
CFD. The materials distributed will include information about the proposed uses of the special tax revenue, the
proposed tax rates, the requirements for approval of the CFD, and the method and deadline for returning ballots.
Meeting Number Three: Opening and counting of ballots. If the CFD gains the required number of votes for
passage, the City Council will adopt a Resolution Confirming Results of Special Election and introduce an ordinance
ordering the levy of special taxes within the CFD.
Meeting Number Four: Hold a second reading to adopt the special tax ordinance ordering the levy of special taxes
within the CFD. After formation of the CFD, a special tax is levied annually on taxable properties that are located
within the boundaries of the CFD.
FISCAL IMPACT
The formation and administration of the CFD will be paid through revenues generated by the CFD and therefore,
have no direct fiscal impact on the City’s General Fund.
RELATIONSHIP TO THE STRATEGIC PLAN
The creation of an Eastern Neighborhoods Community Facilities District meets the city’s strategic goals of
306
20
promoting and preserving the economic vitality of the City.
CONCLUSION
Traffic remains a top threat to the viability of the business environment in South San Francisco. Economic growth
is here, and will continue, bringing with it opportunities and benefits, but also increased transportation
challenges. The Eastern Neighborhoods CFD is the City and the business community’s opportunity to come
together with a thoughtful, comprehensive solution to ensure that businesses continue to prosper for decades to
come.
Staff seeks Council feedback and direction concerning possible formation of Eastern Neighborhoods
Community Facilities District (CFD), and if appropriate, scheduling of associated City Council meetings to
move forward with formation.

Term Sheet: Rate and Method of Apportionment of Special Tax for the
Proposed East of Highway 101 CFD
Outlined below is the preliminary Term Sheet for the proposed East of Highway 101 Community
Facilities District (“CFD”) to be established within the City of South San Francisco (the “City”).
The Rate and Method of Apportionment of Special Tax (the “RMA”) shall be drafted consistent
with the provisions below, subject to approval by the City Council.
Assignment to Special Tax Categories [Capitalized term to be defined in RMA]
Each Fiscal Year, the Administrator shall identify the current Assessor’s Parcel numbers for all
Taxable Parcels in the CFD. In order to identify Taxable Parcels, the Administrator shall confirm
the buildings in the CFD for which a Building Permit has been issued. The Administrator shall
then identify the Residential Square Footage, Warehouse/Industrial Square Footage, and Other
Non-Residential Square Footage on each Taxable Parcel. The Square Footage Categories shall be
classified based on City GIS or Building Permit information, County land use codes, site visits, or
other sources of information.
Ta ble 1
Special Tax Categories
Square Footage Category Land Use Class
Residential Square Footage For-Sale Residential and Rental Residential
Warehouse/Industrial Square Footage Warehouse and Industrial Property
Other Non-Residential Square Footage Office, R&D, Retail, Hotels, & Other Commercial
Maximum Special Taxes
Once the Square Footage Category has been identified, the Maximum Special Tax for each Taxable
Parcel shall be determined based on reference to Table 2 below.
Ta ble 2
Maximum Special Tax for Taxable Property
Square Footage Category Maximum Special Tax*
Residential Square Footage $0.XX per Square Foot
Warehouse/Industrial Square Footage First 25,000 SF: $0.XX per Square Foot
Middle 25,001 to 50,000 SF: $0.XX per Square Foot
Above 50,000 SF: $0.XX per Square Foot
Other Non-Residential Square Footage $0.XX per Square Foot
*The Maximum Special Tax rates shown above for each Square Footage Category shall
escalate as set forth in the “Changes to the Maximum Special Tax” section below.

Attachment 2
326
Changes to the Maximum Special Tax
1. Annual Escalation of the Maximum Special Tax
The Maximum Special Tax rates identified in Table 2 are applicable for fiscal year 2024-25.
Beginning July 1, 2025 and each July 1 thereafter, the Maximum Special Taxes shall be increased
by an amount equal to two percent (2%) of the amount in effect in the prior Fiscal Year.
2. Changes in Land Use on a Taxable Parcel
If Square Footage on a Parcel that had been taxed as Residential Square Footage,
Warehouse/Industrial Square Footage, or Other Non-Residential Square Footage in a prior Fiscal
Year is rezoned or otherwise changes Land Use, the Administrator shall calculate the Maximum
Special Tax for the Assessor’s Parcel based on the new Land Use(s). If the amount determined is
greater than the Maximum Special Tax that applied to the Assessor’s Parcel prior to the Land Use
Change, the Administrator shall increase the Maximum Special Tax to the amount calculated for
the new Land Uses. If the amount determined is less than the Maximum Special Tax that applied
prior to the Land Use Change, there will be no change to the Maximum Special Tax for the
Assessor’s Parcel. Under no circumstances shall the Maximum Special Tax on any Taxable Parcel
be reduced, regardless of changes in Land Use or Square Footage on the Parcel, including
reductions in Square Footage that may occur due to demolition, fire, water damage, or acts of God.
In addition, if a Taxable Building within the CFD that had been subject to the levy of Special Taxes
in any prior Fiscal Year becomes all or part of an otherwise Exempt Use, the Parcel(s) shall
continue to be subject to the Maximum Special Tax that had applied to the Parcel(s) before they
became an Exempt Use.
Method of Levy of the Special Tax
Each Fiscal Year, the Special Tax shall be levied Proportionately on each Taxable Parcel up to
100% of the Maximum Special Tax for each Parcel for such Fiscal Year until the amount levied on
Taxable Parcels is equal to the Special Tax Requirement.
“Special Tax Requirement” means the amount necessary in any Fiscal Year to: (i) pay principal
and interest on Bonds that are due in the calendar year that begins in such Fiscal Year; (ii) pay
periodic costs on the Bonds, including but not limited to, credit enhancement, liquidity support
and rebate payments on the Bonds, (iii) create and/or replenish reserve funds for the Bonds to the
extent such replenishment has not been included in the computation of the Special Tax
Requirement in a previous Fiscal Year; (iv) cure any delinquencies in the payment of principal or
interest on Bonds which have occurred in the prior Fiscal Year; (v) pay Administrative Expenses;
and (vi) pay directly for Authorized Facilities. The amounts referred to in clauses (i) and (ii) of the
preceding sentence may be reduced in any Fiscal Year by: (i) interest earnings on or surplus
balances in funds and accounts for the Bonds to the extent that such earnings or balances are
available to apply against such costs pursuant to the Indenture; (ii) in the sole and absolute
DR
A
F
T
327
discretion of the City, proceeds received by the CFD from the collection of penalties associated
with delinquent Special Taxes; and (iii) any other revenues available to pay such costs as
determined by the Administrator.
Collection of Special Tax
The Special Taxes shall be collected in the same manner and at the same time as ordinary ad
valorem property taxes, provided, however, that prepayments are permitted and provided further
that the City may directly bill the Special Tax, may collect Special Taxes at a different time or in a
different manner, and may collect delinquent Special Taxes through foreclosure or other available
methods.
The Special Tax shall be levied and collected from the first Fiscal Year in which an Assessor’s
parcel is designated as a Taxable Parcel until the principal and interest on all Bonds have been
paid, the City’s costs of constructing or acquiring Authorized Facilities from Special Tax proceeds
have been paid, and all Administrative Expenses have been paid or reimbursed. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, the Special Tax shall not be levied on any Square Footage in the CFD for more than
thirty-five (35) Fiscal Years, except that a Special Tax that was lawfully levied in or before the
final Fiscal Year and that remains delinquent may be collected in subsequent Fiscal Years.
Exemptions
Special Taxes shall not be levied in any Fiscal Year on the following: (i) Public Property, except
Taxable Public Property, (ii) Owners Association Property, except Taxable Owners Association
Property, (iii) Welfare Exemption Property, except Taxable Welfare Exemption Property, (iv)
Parcels that are owned by a public utility for an unmanned facility, (v) Parcels that are subject to
an easement that precludes any other use on the Parcel, and (vi) for purposes of levying the Special
Tax, Parcels that have fully prepaid the Special Tax obligation assigned to the Parcel.
Prepayment of Special Tax
The Special Tax obligation applicable to a Parcel in the CFD may be fully prepaid or partially
prepaid and the obligation of the Parcel to pay the Special Tax permanently satisfied, provided that
a prepayment may be made only if there are no delinquent Special Taxes with respect to such
Parcel at the time of prepayment.
Interpretation of the RMA
The City reserves the right to make minor administrative and technical changes to this document
that do not materially affect the rate and method of apportioning Special Taxes. In addition, the
interpretation and application of any section of this document shall be left to the City’s discretion.
Interpretations may be made by the City by ordinance or resolution for purposes of clarifying
any vagueness or ambiguity in this RMA.

Report regarding an ordinance amending Chapter 8.27 "Mandatory Organic Waste Disposal Reduction"of Title
8 of the South San Francisco Municipal Code relating to organic waste disposal and related regulations
pursuant to Senate Bill 1383.(Marissa Garren, Public Works Management Analyst II)
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the City Council waive first reading and introduce an ordinance amending
Chapter 8.27 "Mandatory Organic Waste Disposal Reduction"of Title 8 of the South San Francisco
Municipal Code relating to organic waste disposal and related regulations pursuant to Senate Bill 1383.
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION
In September 2016,Senate Bill 1383 ("SB 1383")established statewide methane emissions reduction targets to
reduce emissions of short-lived climate pollutants.SB 1383 includes statewide goals to reduce the disposal of
organic waste (such as food scraps,yard debris,and paper products)and to recover edible food for human
consumption.
To meet the SB 1383 regulations,jurisdictions throughout the State were required to adopt an ordinance or
other similarly enforceable mechanism by January 1,2022.On November 10,2021,the South San Francisco
City Council adopted Chapter 8.27,"Mandatory Organic Waste Disposal Reduction,"to Title 8 of the
Municipal Code implementing SB 1383's “performance-based”requirements and mandating compliance from
organic waste generators,haulers,and other entities.This approach was taken as the City’s initial steps to
comply with SB 1383 requirements while the statutory compliance details were being rolled out and clarified.
During this time,many SB 1383 details were being clarified before SSF Scavenger staff had a true
understanding of standard versus performance-based collection service.
Since that time,the SSF Scavenger team has gained further understanding of the “standard”versus
“performance based”approach options available under SB 1383.Specifically,it has become clear that the
performance-based approach is challenging to implement and not advantageous to the City.While the
performance-based approach may be attractive due to having fewer regulatory requirements,it would require
that all residential and all commercial waste generators automatically participate in the 3 (or 3+)bin program
(grey/garbage,blue/recycling,green/organics).In addition,collected waste material would need to be sent to a
high diversion organic waste processing facility.Most facilities in California,including the processing facility
utilized by South San Francisco Scavenger,do not qualify.To reach the organic waste diversion goal set by SB
1383 (75%by 2025),it is imperative that waste generators do their part by reducing,reusing,and correctly
sorting what remains.Having the City continue efforts with outreach,and provide enforcement,as required
under standard collection service,is essential.Thus,conversion from the performance-based approach to the
standard approach is beneficial to the City.In particular,City staff and the SSF Scavenger team have been

standard approach is beneficial to the City.In particular,City staff and the SSF Scavenger team have been
working with the City’s designated CalRecycle representative regarding SB 1383 implementation and the
transition from performance-based to standard approach,and the State representative is supportive of this
change.
With this understanding in mind,the City and SSF Scavenger Inc.,Co.,now seek to amend certain
requirements under Chapter 8.27 to utilize the “standard”approach for SB 1383 compliance to better tailor
solid waste services and operations implemented in South San Francisco for single-family,multi-family,and
commercial business waste generators. In summary, these amendments will:
·Clarify terms within the ordinance such as "Designated Source Separated Organic Waste Facility"and
"Self-Hauler."
·Improve focus on the adequacy of container capacity and participation in proper sorting practices.
Remove specific service level requirements but maintains the need for correct waste separation and
prohibits contamination. Maintains language for on-site waste management.
·Streamline requirements by focusing on subscription to waste and recycling collection services and
compliance with waste separation protocols,while removing specific service level requirements and
exempting Multi-Family Residential Dwellings from some container placement and labeling rules.
Maintains language for on-site waste management.
·Discontinue Collection Frequency Waiver;all subscribers to the city’s three-container organic waste
collection service are required to adhere to a standard weekly collection schedule for all containers-blue
(recyclables),gray (landfill),and green (organics).This frequency waiver will remove the option for
trash and recycling collection to occur on a less frequent basis.
Overall,these amendments will better align with the current and standard-based regulatory approach for
operations,monitoring,enforcement,and reporting carried out by the City and SSF Scavenger Co.,Inc.,for the
City of South San Francisco to achieve the 75% organic waste reduction goal by 2025.
ENVIRONMENTAL ANALYSIS
No additional environmental analysis is required for the proposed Ordinance as it is covered by a previously
prepared environmental document.Specifically,this Ordinance is adopted pursuant to CalRecycle's SB 1383
Regulations.The SB 1383 Regulations were the subject of a program environmental impact report (EIR)
prepared by CalRecycle,and the activities to be carried out under this Ordinance are entirely within the scope
of the SB 1383 Regulations and that EIR.No mitigation measures identified in the EIR are applicable to the
City's enactment of this Ordinance.Moreover,none of the conditions requiring a subsequent or supplemental
EIR,as described in Public Resources Code Section 21166 and California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA)
Guidelines Sections 15162 and 15163,have occurred.The EIR therefore adequately analyzes any potential
environmental effects of the Ordinance, and no additional environmental review is required.
Separately,the Ordinance is exempt from CEQA pursuant to Section 15308,Class 8 of the CEQA Guidelines,
as an action that will not have a significant impact on the environment and as an action taken by a regulatory

as an action that will not have a significant impact on the environment and as an action taken by a regulatory
agency for the protection of the environment,specifically,for the protection of the climate.There are no
unusual circumstances that would cause this Ordinance to have a significant effect on the environment.
FISCAL IMPACT
Amending the ordinance has no fiscal impact.The City’s adopted operating budget funding is sufficient to
maintain compliance with SB 1383.
RELATIONSHIP TO STRATEGIC PLAN
This ordinance amendment aligns with the City of South San Francisco's Strategic Plan by supporting the
City’s environmental sustainability goals by advancing its commitment to reducing greenhouse gas emissions,
promoting responsible waste management,and ensuring compliance with state regulations (Senate Bill 1383),
contributing to the City's broader objectives of improving public health,protecting the environment,and
promoting a sustainable community for current and future generations.
CONCLUSION
Staff recommends that the City Council waive first reading and introduce an ordinance amending Chapter 8.27
"Mandatory Organic Waste Disposal Reduction"of Title 8 of the South San Francisco Municipal Code relating
to organic waste disposal and related regulations pursuant to Senate Bill 1383.This ordinance amendment
ensures continued compliance with SB 1383,organic waste disposal management,and supports environmental
sustainability efforts in South San Francisco.

Report regarding awarding a construction contract to Bayside Stripe &Seal,Inc.of Petaluma,California for the
Citywide School Traffic Safety Improvement Project (No.st2402,Bid No.2694)in an amount not to exceed
$677,930,authorizing a total construction contract authority budget of $745,723.(Jeffrey Chou,Senior Civil
Engineer)
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt a resolution awarding a construction contract to Bayside
Stripe &Seal,Inc.of Petaluma,California for the Citywide School Traffic Safety Improvement Project
(No.ST2402,Bid No.2694)in an amount not to exceed $677,930,authorizing a total construction
contract authority budget of $745,723,and authorizing the City Manager to execute the agreement on
behalf of the City.
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION
On July 26,2023,as part of the City’s General Plan and Vision Zero goal to enhance safety for children,
families,and school faculty,and to achieve zero roadway fatalities by 2025,City Council adopted a resolution
declaring a prima facie speed limit of 15 miles per hour (MPH)when children are present,as allowed by State
Law, for the remaining qualified K-12 schools within the City limit.
To ensure a comprehensive and well-informed approach,staff worked closely with the South San Francisco
Unified School District (SSFUSD),actively engaging parents,families,and school principals to gather their
valuable insights and opinions.Based on discussion with the respective principals and an examination of the
school areas,the Project will encompass enhancements related to traffic safety and calming measures around
the school premises.These traffic improvements are designed to complement the new 15 MPH school zone,
enhancing safety,and promoting increased driver awareness in the vicinity of the schools (e.g.Rectangular
Rapid Flashing Beacons, high visibility crosswalks, etc.).
A reminder of the list of schools for the 15 MPH school zone speed reduction (See Attachment 1):
1.All Souls Catholic School (Private)
2.Alta Loma Middle School
3.Baden High School
4.Buri Buri Elementary School
5.El Camino High School
6.Los Cerritos Elementary School
7.Martin Elementary School
8.Monte Verde Elementary School

The Project was originally combined and bid together with the 2024 Street Surface Seal Project.On April 25,
2024,only one bid proposal was received for the combined Project coming in at approximately 48%over the
Engineer’s Estimate.
On May 22,2024,City Council,through motion,rejected the sole bid for the combined 2024 Street Surface
Seal and Citywide School Improvements Project.
Bid Process and Results
The current Project falls under Procurement Type 1:Competitive Bidding for Construction Projects.For more
details on the City’s Procurement Process, refer to Attachment 2.
Staff decided to separate the two projects and bid them out individually to target a more focused scope,with the
aim of attracting more competitive bids.
Staff advertised a notice inviting bids for the Project on June 6,and July 2,2024.On August 7,2024,staff
received two (2)bid proposals in response to the notice inviting bids.Staff reviewed all bid proposals and
identified that the lowest responsive and responsible bidder was Bayside Stripe &Seal,Inc.of Petaluma CA,
California.Staff verified Bayside Stripe &Seal contractor’s license with the California State Licensing Board
and found it in good standing.
The following is a summary of all bids received:
Rank
Contractor "Base Bid" Schedule Results
1 Bayside Stripe & Seal, Inc. of Petaluma, CA $677,930.00
2 Zara Construction Inc. of Sacramento, CA $595,130.00*
Engineers Estimate (by DKS Associates)$568,723.00
*Although Zara Construction submitted the lowest bid,a thorough review by City staff and the City Attorney's
Office revealed that their bid does not meet the City's bid specifications.As a result,Zara Construction’s bid
was deemed non-responsive and has been rejected.Please refer to Attachment 3 for the Notice of Bid Rejection
letter, which provides a detailed explanation.
The Project was advertised with a “Base Bid”schedule only.The selection of award of a contract is based on
the lowest responsive bid for the Base Bid schedule.
Bayside Stripe &Seal,Inc.’s bid is 18.9%higher than the Engineer’s Estimate.Staff and City’s engineering
consultant reviewed the bid and found it consistent with current market prices,considering the current
construction climate and rising cost in material and labor.
Staff recommend awarding the Base Bid schedule to Bayside Stripe & Seal, Inc.

Overview of Citys Procurement Process
The Citys procurement process is governed by both state and local law. State law requires
contracts for construction to be competitively bid pursuant to a set of specific, established rules.
In particular, the City is required to award construction contracts to the lowest responsible
bidder after providing notice in accordance with law. (Pub. Contract Code §§ 20162, 20164.)
However, in awarding contracts for the purchase of professional services, equipment and
supplies, the City has some latitude. State law requires the City to adopt regulations and policies
to govern such service and supplies procurement, but otherwise provides the City flexibility in
determining relevant requirements as long as they are consistent with applicable state law. (Gov.
Code § 54202.) Chapter 4.04 of the Municipal Code and the Citys Purchasing Procedures
(Administrative Instruction Section IV, No. 1) govern the Citys purchasing policies and contract
procurement processes.
The Citys purchasing ordinance distinguishes between three primary types of procurement
methods as follows:
1.Competitive Bidding for Construction Projects
Public projects are specifically defined under the Public Contract Code, and generally
involve any construction project that is paid with public funds or those projects
involving improvements, demolition or other work on public property or facility. Public
projects are required to be procured through competitive bidding and the City must
award the contract to the lowest bidder whose bid complies with all of the Citys
solicitation requirements and demonstrates that the bidder is able to perform the work.
Under the Citys policy, different levels of competitive bidding are required depending
on the dollar limit of the underlying project.
For these contracts, cost is generally the sole determining factor, and the lowest
responsible bidder is awarded the project even if another bidder appears to be more
skilled but is more expensive.
2.Open Market Procedures for Vendors (Supplies and Equipment)
Open Market Procedures is the Citys vendor selection process for purchase of goods,
supplies, and professional services. These rules do not apply to, and may not be used
for, public construction projects.
Contracts for the purchase of goods and services that exceed $10,000 requires staff to
utilize open market procedures. If the contract is $25,000 or less, staff must obtain at
least three quotes, which are informal offers to perform work at a stated price. If the
contract is greater than $25,000, staff will be required to solicit the project, such as
issuing a Request for Proposals (RFPs) and obtain at least three written responses.
Under this vendor selection process, cost can be only one factor in determining which
vendor the City will ultimately select for services, equipment, or supplies. This
requirement is similarly reflected under SSFMC § 4.04.080.
Thus, when utilizing the open market vendor selection process, the City is focused on
the skill, ability, and expertise of the entity or person to be able to provide the service,
ATTACHMENT 2
384
equipment, or goods to the City. The selection is based on competence, professional
qualifications, and overall value to the City with cost being only one factor in the
determination of an award.
Federally Funded Procurements for Vendors (Supplies and Equipment)
Contracts that receive federal funding are required to incorporate and comply with
additional terms and conditions. The Citys Purchasing Procedures also provide
guidance on procuring supplies and equipment contracts that are federally funded.
Federally funded procurements also require a written procedure for conducting
evaluations and for selecting recipients and awarding the contract to the responsible firm
whose proposal is most advantageous to the City with price being only one factor. It is
also important to note that federally funded procurements do not include state or local
geographical preferences unless specifically authorized by federal law. Each evaluation
is a non-discrimination and equal opportunity for all vendors.
3. Open Market Procedures for Architectural and Engineering (A&E) Professional
Services
For certain professional services such as architectural, engineering, environmental, land
surveying, or construction project management, the Government Code also specifically
requires that such services not be awarded solely based on price, but instead based on
demonstrated competence. (Gov. Code § 4526.) Both the state law provision and the
Citys policy reflect the legislative view that when acquiring such services, the City does
not necessarily receive the best value when it pays the lowest price. (See e.g., California
Attorney General Op. No. 94-819 (February 9, 1995).

Re: Notice of Bid Rejection
Dear Mr. Zahoor,
We appreciate your bid submission on behalf of Zara Construction, Inc. (“Zara Construction”) for
the Citywide School Traffic Safety Improvements Project (Project No. ST2402, Bid No. 2694). After
careful consideration, we regret to inform you that Zara Construction’s bid has been rejected.
The City has reviewed and determined that Zara Construction’s bid is not responsive to the City’s
bid specifications. Specifically, the “Designation of Subcontractors” form submitted by Zara
Construction did not meet the requirements in the bid specifications to have the prime contractor
perform at least fifty-five percent (55%) of the work.
Specifically, on page P-8 of the bid specifications, the subcontractor listing form states that “not
less than fifty-five (55%) of the contractor work shall be done by the Prime Contractor, also
typically referred to as the Bidder”. This is an important and material component to the bid
specifications. As a part of Zara Construction’s bid proposal, the subcontractor listing form listed
the sub-contractor, Tri-Valley Striping, as performing 64% of the work (see screenshot below),
leaving the Prime Contractor with only 36% of the work performed. This falls short of the required
55% minimum for the Prime Contractor.

As a part of its consideration, the City reviewed Zara Construction’s supplemental communication
which stated that the 64% insertion was a “typographical error” and should have been “44%”
instead. The City also reviewed the supplemental “cost breakdown” document submitted by Tri-
Valley Striping in support of Zara Construction’s statement. Based on its review, the City has
concluded that this supplemental information is not sufficient to demonstrate that the
“typographical error” in question is a minor irregularity that can be waived by the City. As Zara
Construction’s initial bid submittal did not include a subcontractor cost break down by line item,
nor is such information listed as a part of the City’s specifications, the City cannot ascertain how
this cost breakdown information may deviate from the initial bid submittal or its potential impact
on the bid price. As such, the City concludes based on the bid submittal that Zara Construction’s
bid is not responsive for the foregoing reason.
We understand the effort that goes into preparing a bid and appreciate your interest in working
with the City of South San Francisco. We encourage you to continue participating in future bidding
opportunities with us.

chargeable to Contractor and which accrue during the period of such extension, except that the cost of the
final service and preparation of the final estimates shall not be included in such charges, provided, however,
that no extension of time for the completion of such Work shall be allowed unless at least twenty (20)
calendar days prior to the time herein fixed for the completion thereof or the time fixed by the Engineer for
such completion as extended, Contractor shall have filed application for extension thereof, in writing with
the Engineer.
6. Option of City to Terminate Agreement in Event of Failure to Complete Work. If at any
time in the opinion of the Engineer, the Contractor has refused or failed to prosecute the Work or any
399
Page A-3 of A-9
severable part thereof, with such diligence as will insure its work, or any completion within the time
specified, or any extensions thereof, or shall have failed to complete said work within such time, or if
Contractor should be adjudged a bankrupt, or if Contractor should make a general assignment for the benefit
of Contractor's creditors, or if a receiver should be appointed in the event of Contractor's insolvency, or if
Contractor, or any Subcontractor, should violate any of the provisions of this Agreement, the Engineer may
give written notice to Contractor, and Contractor's sureties of its intention to terminate this Agreement, such
notice to contain the reasons for such intention to terminate this Agreement, and unless within five calendar
(5) days after the serving of such notice, such violation shall cease and satisfactory arrangements for the
correction thereof be made, this Agreement may, at the option of City, upon expiration of said time, cease
and terminate. Any excess of cost arising therefrom over and above the contract price will be charged
against the Contractor and the Contractor’s sureties who will be liable therefore. In the event of such
termination, all money due the Contractor or retained under the terms of this contract shall be forfeited to
the City; but such forfeiture will not release the Contractor or the Contractor’s sureties from liability or
failure to fulfill the contract. The Contractor and the Contractor’s sureties will be credited with the amount
of money so forfeited toward any excess of cost over and above the contract price, arising from the
suspension termination of the operations of the contract and the completion of the Work by the City as
above provided, and the Contractor will be so credited with any surplus remaining after all just claims for
such completion have been paid.
In the determination of the question whether there has been any such noncompliance with the
contract as to warrant the suspension termination or annulment thereof, the decision of the Engineer shall
be binding on all parties to the contract.
7. Termination of Contract for Convenience. The City also reserves the right to terminate the
contract at any time upon a determination by the Engineer in the Engineer's sole discretion that termination
of the contract is in the best interest of the City. If the City elects to terminate the contract for convenience,
the termination of the contract and the total compensation payable to the Contractor shall be governed by
the following:
(A) The City will issue the Contractor a written notice signed by the Engineer,
specifying that the contract is terminated. Upon receipt of said written notice, the Contractor will be
relieved of further responsibility for damage to the Work (excluding materials) as specified in Section VII-
17, "Contractor's Responsibility for the Work," of the General Conditions and, except as otherwise directed
in writing by the Engineer, the Contractor shall:
(1) Stop all work under the contract except that specifically directed to be completed prior to
acceptance.
(2) Perform work the Engineer deems necessary to secure the project for termination.
(3) Remove equipment and plant from the site of the Work.
(4) Take such action as is necessary to protect materials from damage.
(5) Notify all subcontractors and suppliers that the contract is being terminated and that their
contracts or orders are not to be further performed unless otherwise authorized in writing by the
Engineer.
(6) Provide the Engineer with an inventory list of all materials previously produced, purchased
or ordered from suppliers for use in the Work and not yet used in the Work, including its storage
location, and such other information as the Engineer may request.
400
Page A-4 of A-9
(7) Dispose of materials not yet used in the Work as directed by the Engineer. It shall be the
Contractor's responsibility to provide the City with good title to all materials purchased by the City
hereunder, including materials for which partial payment has been made as provided in Section IX-
2, “Progress Payments,” of the General Conditions and with bills of sale or other documents of title
for such materials.
(8) Subject to the prior written approval of the Engineer, settle all outstanding liabilities and
all claims arising out of subcontracts or orders for materials terminated hereunder. To the extent
directed by the Engineer, the Contractor shall assign to the City all the right, title, and interest of
the Contractor under subcontracts or orders for materials terminated hereunder.
(9) Furnish the Engineer with the documentation required to be furnished by the Contractor
under the provisions of the contract, including, on projects as to which Federal and State funds are
involved, all documentation required under the Federal and State requirements included in the
contract.
(10) Take such other actions as the Engineer may direct.
(B) Acceptance of the contract as hereinafter specified shall not relieve the Contractor
of responsibility for damage to materials. The Contractor shall continue to be responsible for damage to
materials after issuance of the Notice of Termination, except as follows:
(1) The Contractor’s responsibility for damage to materials for which partial payment has been
made as provided in Section IX-2, “Progress Payments,” of the General Conditions and for
materials furnished by the City for use in the Work and unused shall terminate when the Engineer
certifies that such materials have been stored in the manner and at the locations the Engineer has
directed.
(2) The Contractor’s responsibility for damage to materials purchased by the City subsequent
to the issuance of the notice that the contract is to be terminated shall terminate when title and
delivery of such materials has been taken by the City.
(3) When the Engineer determines that the Contractor has completed the Work under the
contract directed to be completed prior to termination and such other work as may have been
ordered to secure the project for termination, the Contractor will recommend that the Engineer
formally accept the contract to the extent performed, and immediately upon and after such
acceptance by the Engineer, the Contractor will not be required to perform any further Work
thereon and shall be relieved of the Contractor's contractual responsibilities for injury to persons or
property which occurs after the formal acceptance of the project by the Engineer.
(C) Termination of the contract shall not relieve the surety of its obligation for any just
claims arising out of the work performed.
(D) The total compensation to be paid to the Contractor shall be determined by the
Engineer on the basis of the following:
(1) The reasonable cost to the Contractor, without profit, for all work performed under the
contract, including mobilization, demobilization and work done to secure the project for
termination. In determining the reasonable cost, deductions will be made for the cost of materials
401
Page A-5 of A-9
to be retained by the Contractor, amounts realized by the sale of materials, and for other appropriate
credits against the cost of the work. When, in the opinion of the Engineer, the cost of a contract
item of work is excessively high due to costs incurred to remedy or replace defective or rejected
work, the reasonable cost to be allowed will be the estimated reasonable cost of performing such
work in compliance with the requirements of the plans and specifications and the excessive actual
cost shall be disallowed.
(2) A reasonable allowance for profit on the cost of the work performed as determined under
Subsection (1), provided the Contractor establishes to the satisfaction of the Engineer that it is
reasonably probable that the Contractor would have made a profit had the contract been completed
and provided further, that the profit allowed shall in no event exceed four (4) percent of said cost.
(3) The reasonable cost to the Contractor of handling material returned to the vendor, delivered
to the City, or otherwise disposed of as directed by the Engineer.
(4) A reasonable allowance for the Contractor’s administrative costs in determining the
amount payable due to termination of the contract.
(5) A reasonable credit to the City for defective or incomplete work not corrected.
All records of the Contractor and subcontractors necessary to determine compensation in
accordance with the provisions of this Section 5 shall be open to inspection or audit by representatives of
the City at all times after issuance of the Notice of Termination and for a period of three (3) years, thereafter,
and such records shall be retained for that period.
After acceptance of the Work by the Engineer, the Engineer may make payments on the basis of
interim estimates pending issuance of the Final Estimate in accordance with Section IX-7, “Final Payment,”
of the General Conditions when, in the Engineer's opinion, the amount thus paid, together with all amounts
previously paid or allowed, will not result in total compensation in excess of that to which the Contractor
will be entitled. All payments, including payment upon the Final Estimate shall be subject to deduction for
prior payments and amounts, if any, to be kept or retained under the provisions of the contract.
If this contract is terminated by the City for cause, and it is later determined that the proper basis
for a termination for cause did not exist, the termination shall be deemed to have been a termination for
convenience and governed by the terms of this contract dealing with such termination.
If the contract is terminated by the City for cause or convenience, such termination shall neither act
as a waiver by the City of its right to require the Contractor to correct defects in the Work performed by the
Contractor nor void any warranties applicable to the Work performed under the contract.
The provisions of this Section 5 shall be included in all subcontracts.
In the event of conflict between the termination provisions of this Section 8 and any other provision
or the contract, this Section 5 shall prevail.
8. Performance by Sureties. In the event of any termination as herein before provided, City
shall immediately give written notice thereof to Contractor and Contractor's sureties and the sureties shall
have the right to take over and perform the Agreement, provided, however, that if the sureties, within five
(5) working days after giving them said notice of termination, do not give the City written notice of their
intention to take over the performance of the Agreement and do not commence performance thereof within
five (5) working days after notice to the City of such election, City may take over the Work and prosecute
402
Page A-6 of A-9
the same to completion by contract or by any other method it may deem advisable, for the account, and at
the expense, of Contractor, and the sureties shall be liable to City for any excess cost or damages occasioned
City thereby; and, in such event, City may, without liability for so doing, take possession of and utilize in
completing the Work such materials, appliances, plant, and other property belonging to Contractor as may
be on the site of the Work and necessary therefore. Should Contractor contract in an individual capacity,
the surety bond shall contain the following provision: “Should Contractor contract in the Contractor’s
individual capacity, the death of the Contractor shall not relieve the surety of its obligations.”
9. Hold-Harmless Agreement and Contractor's Insurance. Contractor agrees to, and shall,
hold City, its elective and appointive boards, officers, agents, and employees harmless from any liability
for damage or claims for damage for personal injury, including death, as well as from claims for property
damage which may arise from Contractor's or any of Subcontractor's operations under this Agreement,
whether such operations be by Contractor or by any Subcontractor or Subcontractors, or by any one or more
persons directly or indirectly employed by, or acting as agent for, Contractor or any Subcontractor or
Subcontractors. Contractor agrees to, and shall, defend City and its elective and appointive boards, officers,
agents, and employees from any suits or actions at law or in equity for damages caused, or alleged to have
been caused, by reason of any of the aforesaid operations, provided as follows:
(A) The City does not, and shall not, waive any rights against Contractor which it may have by
reason of the aforesaid hold-harmless agreement, because of the acceptance by City, or the deposit
with City by Contractor, of any of the insurance policies hereinafter described in Paragraph 15,
“Insurance” hereof.
(B) That the aforesaid hold-harmless agreement by Contractor shall apply to all damages and
claims for damages of every kind suffered, or alleged to have been suffered, by reason of any of
the aforesaid operations of Contractor or any Subcontractor, regardless of whether or not such
insurance policies shall have been determined to be applicable to any of such damages or claims
for damages.
10. Insurance. The Contractor shall take out and maintain during the life of this Agreement
the following policies of insurance:
(A) Workers' Compensation and Employers' Liability Insurance providing full
statutory coverage.
In signing this Agreement, the Contractor makes the following certification, required by

"I am aware of the provisions of Section 3700 of the California Labor Code which
require every employer to be insured against liability for Workers' Compensation or
to undertake self-insurance in accordance with the provisions of that Code, and I
will comply with such provisions before commencing the performance of the work
of this contract".
(B) Comprehensive General Liability Insurance.
Public Liability Insurance (includes premises, elevator - if applicable, products, completed
operations, personal injury and contractual):
(1) Bodily Injury Liability:
403

$ 500,000 each person $1,000,000 each occurrence
(2) Property Damage Liability [includes XCU (explosion, collapse, and underground damage);

amount of not less than ONE MILLION FIVE HUNDRED THOUSAND DOLLARS ($1,500,000), shall
be extended to include as additional insured the City of South San Francisco, its elective and appointive
boards, commissions, officers, agents, employees, with respect to operations performed by the Contractor,
as described herein. Evidence of this insurance described above shall be provided to City upon execution
of this Agreement and shall be subject to approval of the City Attorney as to form, amount, and carrier.
The policy of insurance shall also contain a provision indicating that such insurance shall not be reduced or
cancelled except upon thirty (30) calendar days written notice to City. In addition, the following
endorsement shall be made on said policy of insurance:
"The following are named as additional insured on the above policies: The City of South
San Francisco, its elective and appointive boards, officers, agents, and employees."
"Notwithstanding any other provision in this policy, the insurance afforded hereunder to the
City of South San Francisco shall be primary as to any other insurance or re-insurance
covering or available to the City of South San Francisco, and such other insurance or
reinsurance shall not be required to contribute to any liability or loss until and unless the
approximate limit of liability afforded hereunder is exhausted."
The above requirements that the City be named as additional insured, that the insurance
shall be primary to any other, and that the insurance not be cancelled without notice, shall be provided in
the form of an endorsement signed by an authorized representative of the insurance company providing

of any policy during the effective period of this contract. Further, if the Contractor’s insurance policy
includes a self-insured retention that must be paid by a named insured as a precondition of the insurer’s
liability, or which has the effect of providing that payments of the self-insured retention by others, including
additional insureds or insurers do not serve to satisfy the self-insured retention, such provisions must be
modified by special endorsement so as to not apply to the additional insured coverage required by this
agreement so as to not prevent any of the parties to this agreement from satisfying or paying the self-insured
404
Page A-8 of A-9
retention required to be paid as a precondition to the insurer’s liability. Additionally, the certificates of
insurance must note whether the policy does or does not include any self-insured retention and also must

before applying the surface seal.The project team will return in Spring/Summer 2025 to complete the next
phase, which includes applying the surface seal, striping, and marking.
The work consists of mobilization and demobilization of construction equipment;public posting and
notification;traffic regulation and construction area signs;changeable message signs;clearing,grubbing,and
environmental protection;concrete improvements,base repairs;and over-excavation (if required)in South San
Francisco,CA.The project team will coordinate the work to ensure that residents and the traveling public have
alternate routes (detours) to access the area during construction as needed.
The contract specifications require the Project to provide advance notification to businesses and residents in the
neighborhoods directly impacted by the proposed improvements.This work will result in temporary street
parking impacts and limited access as work is underway.The Contractor will place temporary “No Parking”
signs on the streets, noticing impacted sections during construction as needed.

Overview of City’s Procurement Process
The City’s procurement process is governed by both state and local law. State law requires
contracts for construction to be competitively bid pursuant to a set of specific, established rules.
In particular, the City is required to award construction contracts to the “lowest responsible
bidder” after providing notice in accordance with law. (Pub. Contract Code §§ 20162, 20164.)
However, in awarding contracts for the purchase of professional services, equipment and
supplies, the City has some latitude. State law requires the City to adopt regulations and policies
to govern such service and supplies procurement, but otherwise provides the City flexibility in
determining relevant requirements as long as they are consistent with applicable state law. (Gov.
Code § 54202.) Chapter 4.04 of the Municipal Code and the City’s Purchasing Procedures
(Administrative Instruction Section IV, No. 1) govern the City’s purchasing policies and contract
procurement processes.
The City’s purchasing ordinance distinguishes between three primary types of procurement
methods as follows:
1.Competitive Bidding for Construction Projects
Public projects are specifically defined under the Public Contract Code, and generally
involve any construction project that is paid with public funds or those projects
involving improvements, demolition or other work on public property or facility. Public
projects are required to be procured through competitive bidding and the City must
award the contract to the lowest bidder whose bid complies with all of the City’s
solicitation requirements and demonstrates that the bidder is able to perform the work.
Under the City’s policy, different levels of competitive bidding are required depending
on the dollar limit of the underlying project.
For these contracts, cost is generally the sole determining factor, and the lowest
responsible bidder is awarded the project even if another bidder appears to be more
skilled but is more expensive.
2.Open Market Procedures for Vendors (Supplies and Equipment)
Open Market Procedures is the City’s vendor selection process for purchase of goods,
supplies, and professional services. These rules do not apply to, and may not be used
for, public construction projects.
Contracts for the purchase of goods and services that exceed $10,000 requires staff to
utilize open market procedures. If the contract is $25,000 or less, staff must obtain at
least three quotes, which are informal offers to perform work at a stated price. If the
contract is greater than $25,000, staff will be required to solicit the project, such as
issuing a Request for Proposals (“RFPs”) and obtain at least three written responses.
Under this vendor selection process, cost can be only one factor in determining which
vendor the City will ultimately select for services, equipment, or supplies. This
requirement is similarly reflected under SSFMC § 4.04.080.
Thus, when utilizing the open market vendor selection process, the City is focused on
the skill, ability, and expertise of the entity or person to be able to provide the service,
ATTACHMENT 2
414
equipment, or goods to the City. The selection is based on competence, professional
qualifications, and overall value to the City with cost being only one factor in the
determination of an award.
Federally Funded Procurements for Vendors (Supplies and Equipment)
Contracts that receive federal funding are required to incorporate and comply with
additional terms and conditions. The City’s Purchasing Procedures also provide
guidance on procuring supplies and equipment contracts that are federally funded.
Federally funded procurements also require a written procedure for conducting
evaluations and for selecting recipients and awarding the contract to the responsible firm
whose proposal is most advantageous to the City with price being only one factor. It is
also important to note that federally funded procurements do not include state or local
geographical preferences unless specifically authorized by federal law. Each evaluation
is a non-discrimination and equal opportunity for all vendors.
3. Open Market Procedures for Architectural and Engineering (A&E) Professional
Services
For certain professional services such as architectural, engineering, environmental, land
surveying, or construction project management, the Government Code also specifically
requires that such services not be awarded solely based on price, but instead based on
demonstrated competence. (Gov. Code § 4526.) Both the state law provision and the
City’s policy reflect the legislative view that when acquiring such services, the City does
not necessarily receive the best value when it pays the lowest price. (See e.g., California
Attorney General Op. No. 94-819 (February 9, 1995).

and subject to the approval of the Engineer of said City or the Engineer’s designated assistant.
4. Contract Price. City shall pay, and Contractor shall accept, in full payment for the Work

actual cost of engineering, inspection, superintendence, and other overhead expenses which are directly
chargeable to Contractor and which accrue during the period of such extension, except that the cost of the
final service and preparation of the final estimates shall not be included in such charges, provided, however,
that no extension of time for the completion of such Work shall be allowed unless at least twenty (20)

the Engineer.
6. Option of City to Terminate Agreement in Event of Failure to Complete Work. If at any

431
EXHIBIT A – DRAFT FORM OF AGREEMENT
Page A-3 of 12
Contractor should be adjudged a bankrupt, or if Contractor should make a general assignment for the benefit
of Contractor's creditors, or if a receiver should be appointed in the event of Contractor's insolvency, or if
Contractor, or any Subcontractor, should violate any of the provisions of this Agreement, the Engineer may
give written notice to Contractor, and Contractor's sureties of its intention to terminate this Agreement, such
notice to contain the reasons for such intention to terminate this Agreement, and unless within five calendar
(5) days after the serving of such notice, such violation shall cease and satisfactory arrangements for the
correction thereof be made, this Agreement may, at the option of City, upon expiration of said time, cease
and terminate. Any excess of cost arising therefrom over and above the contract price will be charged
against the Contractor and the Contractor’s sureties who will be liable therefore. In the event of such
termination, all money due the Contractor or retained under the terms of this contract shall be forfeited to
the City; but such forfeiture will not release the Contractor or the Contractor’s sureties from liability or
failure to fulfill the contract. The Contractor and the Contractor’s sureties will be credited with the amount
of money so forfeited toward any excess of cost over and above the contract price, arising from the
suspension termination of the operations of the contract and the completion of the Work by the City as
above provided, and the Contractor will be so credited with any surplus remaining after all just claims for
such completion have been paid.
In the determination of the question whether there has been any such noncompliance with the
contract as to warrant the suspension termination or annulment thereof, the decision of the Engineer shall
be binding on all parties to the contract.
7. Termination of Contract for Convenience. The City also reserves the right to terminate the
contract at any time upon a determination by the Engineer in the Engineer's sole discretion that termination
of the contract is in the best interest of the City. If the City elects to terminate the contract for convenience,
the termination of the contract and the total compensation payable to the Contractor shall be governed by
the following:
(A) The City will issue the Contractor a written notice signed by the Engineer,
specifying that the contract is terminated. Upon receipt of said written notice, the Contractor will be
relieved of further responsibility for damage to the Work (excluding materials) as specified in Section VII-
18, "Contractor's Responsibility for the Work," of the General Conditions and, except as otherwise directed
in writing by the Engineer, the Contractor shall:
(1) Stop all work under the contract except that specifically directed to be completed prior to
acceptance.
(2) Perform work the Engineer deems necessary to secure the project for termination.
(3) Remove equipment and plant from the site of the Work.
(4) Take such action as is necessary to protect materials from damage.
(5) Notify all subcontractors and suppliers that the contract is being terminated and that their
contracts or orders are not to be further performed unless otherwise authorized in writing by the
Engineer.
(6) Provide the Engineer with an inventory list of all materials previously produced, purchased
or ordered from suppliers for use in the Work and not yet used in the Work, including its storage
location, and such other information as the Engineer may request.
432
EXHIBIT A – DRAFT FORM OF AGREEMENT
Page A-4 of 12
(7) Dispose of materials not yet used in the Work as directed by the Engineer. It shall be the
Contractor's responsibility to provide the City with good title to all materials purchased by the City
hereunder, including materials for which partial payment has been made as provided in Section IX-
2, “Progress Payments,” of the General Conditions and with bills of sale or other documents of title
for such materials.
(8) Subject to the prior written approval of the Engineer, settle all outstanding liabilities and
all claims arising out of subcontracts or orders for materials terminated hereunder. To the extent
directed by the Engineer, the Contractor shall assign to the City all the right, title, and interest of
the Contractor under subcontracts or orders for materials terminated hereunder.
(9) Furnish the Engineer with the documentation required to be furnished by the Contractor
under the provisions of the contract, including, on projects as to which Federal and State funds are
involved, all documentation required under the Federal and State requirements included in the
contract.
(10) Take such other actions as the Engineer may direct.
(B) Acceptance of the contract as hereinafter specified shall not relieve the Contractor
of responsibility for damage to materials. The Contractor shall continue to be responsible for damage to
materials after issuance of the Notice of Termination, except as follows:
(1) The Contractor’s responsibility for damage to materials for which partial payment has been
made as provided in Section IX-2, “Progress Payments,” of the General Conditions and for
materials furnished by the City for use in the Work and unused shall terminate when the Engineer
certifies that such materials have been stored in the manner and at the locations the Engineer has
directed.
(2) The Contractor’s responsibility for damage to materials purchased by the City subsequent
to the issuance of the notice that the contract is to be terminated shall terminate when title and
delivery of such materials has been taken by the City.
(3) When the Engineer determines that the Contractor has completed the Work under the
contract directed to be completed prior to termination and such other work as may have been
ordered to secure the project for termination, the Contractor will recommend that the Engineer
formally accept the contract to the extent performed, and immediately upon and after such
acceptance by the Engineer, the Contractor will not be required to perform any further Work
thereon and shall be relieved of the Contractor's contractual responsibilities for injury to persons or
property which occurs after the formal acceptance of the project by the Engineer.
(C) Termination of the contract shall not relieve the surety of its obligation for any just
claims arising out of the work performed.
(D) The total compensation to be paid to the Contractor shall be determined by the
Engineer on the basis of the following:
(1) The reasonable cost to the Contractor, without profit, for all work performed under the
contract, including mobilization, demobilization and work done to secure the project for
termination. In determining the reasonable cost, deductions will be made for the cost of materials
433
EXHIBIT A – DRAFT FORM OF AGREEMENT
Page A-5 of 12
to be retained by the Contractor, amounts realized by the sale of materials, and for other appropriate
credits against the cost of the work. When, in the opinion of the Engineer, the cost of a contract
item of work is excessively high due to costs incurred to remedy or replace defective or rejected
work, the reasonable cost to be allowed will be the estimated reasonable cost of performing such
work in compliance with the requirements of the plans and specifications and the excessive actual
cost shall be disallowed.
(2) A reasonable allowance for profit on the cost of the work performed as determined under
Subsection (1), provided the Contractor establishes to the satisfaction of the Engineer that it is
reasonably probable that the Contractor would have made a profit had the contract been completed
and provided further, that the profit allowed shall in no event exceed four (4) percent of said cost.
(3) The reasonable cost to the Contractor of handling material returned to the vendor, delivered
to the City, or otherwise disposed of as directed by the Engineer.
(4) A reasonable allowance for the Contractor’s administrative costs in determining the
amount payable due to termination of the contract.
(5) A reasonable credit to the City for defective or incomplete work not corrected.
All records of the Contractor and subcontractors necessary to determine compensation in
accordance with the provisions of this Section 5 shall be open to inspection or audit by representatives of
the City at all times after issuance of the Notice of Termination and for a period of three (3) years, thereafter,
and such records shall be retained for that period.
After acceptance of the Work by the Engineer, the Engineer may make payments on the basis of
interim estimates pending issuance of the Final Estimate in accordance with Section IX-7, “Final Payment,”
of the General Conditions when, in the Engineer's opinion, the amount thus paid, together with all amounts
previously paid or allowed, will not result in total compensation in excess of that to which the Contractor
will be entitled. All payments, including payment upon the Final Estimate shall be subject to deduction for
prior payments and amounts, if any, to be kept or retained under the provisions of the contract.
If this contract is terminated by the City for cause, and it is later determined that the proper basis
for a termination for cause did not exist, the termination shall be deemed to have been a termination for
convenience and governed by the terms of this contract dealing with such termination.
If the contract is terminated by the City for cause or convenience, such termination shall neither act
as a waiver by the City of its right to require the Contractor to correct defects in the Work performed by the
Contractor nor void any warranties applicable to the Work performed under the contract.
The provisions of this Section 5 shall be included in all subcontracts.
In the event of conflict between the termination provisions of this Section 8 and any other provision
or the contract, this Section 5 shall prevail.
8. Performance by Sureties. In the event of any termination as herein before provided, City
shall immediately give written notice thereof to Contractor and Contractor's sureties and the sureties shall
have the right to take over and perform the Agreement, provided, however, that if the sureties, within five
(5) working days after giving them said notice of termination, do not give the City written notice of their
intention to take over the performance of the Agreement and do not commence performance thereof within
five (5) working days after notice to the City of such election, City may take over the Work and prosecute
434
EXHIBIT A – DRAFT FORM OF AGREEMENT
Page A-6 of 12
the same to completion by contract or by any other method it may deem advisable, for the account, and at
the expense, of Contractor, and the sureties shall be liable to City for any excess cost or damages occasioned
City thereby; and, in such event, City may, without liability for so doing, take possession of and utilize in
completing the Work such materials, appliances, plant, and other property belonging to Contractor as may
be on the site of the Work and necessary therefore. Should Contractor contract in an individual capacity,
the surety bond shall contain the following provision: “Should Contractor contract in the Contractor’s
individual capacity, the death of the Contractor shall not relieve the surety of its obligations.”
9. Hold-Harmless Agreement and Contractor's Insurance. Contractor agrees to, and shall,
hold City, its elective and appointive boards, officers, agents, and employees harmless from any liability
for damage or claims for damage for personal injury, including death, as well as from claims for property
damage which may arise from Contractor's or any of Subcontractor's operations under this Agreement,
whether such operations be by Contractor or by any Subcontractor or Subcontractors, or by any one or more
persons directly or indirectly employed by, or acting as agent for, Contractor or any Subcontractor or
Subcontractors. Contractor agrees to, and shall, defend City and its elective and appointive boards, officers,
agents, and employees from any suits or actions at law or in equity for damages caused, or alleged to have
been caused, by reason of any of the aforesaid operations, provided as follows:
(A) The City does not, and shall not, waive any rights against Contractor which it may have by
reason of the aforesaid hold-harmless agreement, because of the acceptance by City, or the deposit
with City by Contractor, of any of the insurance policies hereinafter described in Paragraph 10,
“Insurance” hereof.
(B) That the aforesaid hold-harmless agreement by Contractor shall apply to all damages and
claims for damages of every kind suffered, or alleged to have been suffered, by reason of any of
the aforesaid operations of Contractor or any Subcontractor, regardless of whether or not such
insurance policies shall have been determined to be applicable to any of such damages or claims
for damages.

the following policies of insurance:

Report regarding a resolution authorizing the City of South San Francisco’s application for $5,000,000 from the
State of California’s Local Housing Trust Fund Program and a resolution approving funding commitment letters
for Rotary Gardens and 1051 Mission Road.(Nell Selander, Economic & Community Development Director)
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends City Council adopt a resolution authorizing the City of South San Francisco’s
application for $5,000,000 from the State of California’s Local Housing Trust Fund Program and a
resolution approving funding commitment letters for Rotary Gardens and 1051 Mission Road.
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION
The Local Housing Trust Fund (LHTF)Program is a dollar-for-dollar matching program administered by the
State of California’s Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD)dedicated to funding
affordable rental housing development and preservation.It is funded by the Veterans and Affordable Housing
Bond Act (Proposition 1),a $4 billion bond approved by voters in 2018.The 2024 Notice of Funding
Availability (NOFA)for the LHTF Program makes available $53 million for this statewide,competitive grant
program. The maximum possible award is $5 million.
As a dollar-for-dollar matching grant,the LHTF Program requires the applicant,in this case the City,commit
local housing trust fund dollars in advance of its application for a specific purpose.The purpose can be
something as broad as the construction of new affordable rental housing serving predominantly households
earning less than 30%of the area median income (see Attachment 1 for income limits).However,the City
receives additional tie breaker points for pre-committing these matching funds to a specific project,not just a
broad category of projects.
Additionally,the matching funds (or assets,such as land)must be held by the City’s housing trust fund,with
revenue generated from non-residential sources.In this case,the City would be dedicating its Commercial
Linkage Fee-funded housing trust fund,or Fund 823.Additionally,the LHTF Program allows the City to apply
to match its Permanent Local Housing Allocation (PLHA) Program funds, also administered by the State HCD.
Previous Awards
The City received an award of $2.4 million in LHTF funds in the 2021 NOFA cycle.These funds were pre-
committed to Eden Housing’s 201 Baden project,which has submitted an entitlement application for 68 senior,
affordable units that is currently in review.The City is in compliance with the administration of these 2021
LHTF funds, having had its most recent annual report accepted by State HCD.
2024 NOFA Potential Projects
To best leverage the grant and be as competitive as possible,the City should apply for matching funds for
projects that have already received a commitment of funding from either Fund 823 or PLHA.In this case,that
would make the following projects potentially eligible for matching through the LHTF Program.

1051 Mission Road is the 158-unit affordable housing component of the larger PUC Site development project
located just north of the City’s new Library |Parks &Recreation Center.The City committed $2 million to the
project for predevelopment,which has been spent down on entitlements,preparation of a building permit
application,and applications for myriad funding sources.BRIDGE Housing has pursued the following funding
sources to mixed success:County funds ($9.5 million awarded),State Infill Infrastructure Grant funds ($29
million awarded),and State Affordable Housing Sustainable Communities funds (not awarded in 2023 and
appealing 2024 decision).To complete the funding stack for this project,BRIDGE will need to apply for
federal low-income housing tax credits and potentially State tax credits.
While the project was approved in 2019 and the land transferred to BRIDGE in 2022,the project area has
transitioned from a low-resource area as defined by the State to a high-resource area making it more difficult to
secure scarce funding resources.Additionally,the project has substantial infrastructure design and construction
expenses,far in excess of smaller infill projects,that continue to require funding to advance.While the project
received an Infill Infrastructure Grant award,those funds cannot be drawn upon until the financing has been
completed for the affordable project.For these reasons,this project is in need of additional pre-development
funds and matching the City’s previous $2 million commitment with these LHTF funds could help advance the
project’s infrastructure design and construction so that when the project is fully financed it is not further
delayed by outstanding infrastructure work.
Rotary Gardens Senior Project, Rotary Club & Beacon Development
In April 2024 City Council approved a $556,789 loan to the Rotary Club and Beacon Development for the
predevelopment and/or construction of the Rotary Gardens Senior Project proposed at 500 Linden Avenue.The
2024 LHTF NOFA allows for matching a local jurisdiction’s PLHA award.Since the City has programmed the
first two years of its five-year PLHA award,the City should seek matching of these funds through LHTF.
Rotary and Beacon have applied for approval of this project and are in the process of seeking their financing.
Grand Avenue Properties Acquisition
In April 2024,the City acquired three properties on Grand Avenue for $6,850,000 using Fund 823 -the City’s
housing trust fund funded by Commercial Linkage Fees.While no decision has been made regarding the
properties’reuse or redevelopment,funding could be used to help rehabilitate some of the residential units into
affordable rental housing.This acquisition would be considered the match to the LHTF funds being sought.
Staff would recommend not pre-committing this portion of the LHTF award to this project in case Council
chooses a new approach for the Grand Avenue properties,such as reimbursing Fund 823 and instead using the
properties for a purpose other than affordable housing.While this may reduce the number of tie breaker points
the City might earn, it provides flexibility in programming the LHTF funds, if awarded.
Administrative Allowance
The LHTF Program allows for 5%of awarded (LHTF)and matching (City)funds to be used for administrative
expenses.Staff recommends seeking this $250,000 in funding to offset staff and City Attorney costs in
administering the grants and the subawards to BRIDGE Housing and the Rotary/Beacon team.
FISCAL IMPACT
The City intends to apply for $5,000,000 from the State’s competitive LHTF Program.This includes 5%in
administrative costs to offset staff and City Attorney costs for funded projects.The City is required to provide
matching funds for the application and is using PLHA funds from the State,a $2 million loan already provided
to and spent by BRIDGE Housing,and the $6,850,000 recently spent from Fund 823 to acquire 226-246 Grand
Avenue.Therefore there is no new impact to the City’s General Fund or Housing Funds associated with

adopting the proposed resolutions.
CONCLUSION
Staff recommends City Council adopt a resolution authorizing the City of South San Francisco’s application for
$5,000,000 from the State’s LHTF Program and a resolution approving funding commitment letters for Rotary
Gardens and 1051 Mission Road.

Re: Letter of Intent to Commit Funding for the 1051 Mission Road Affordable Housing Project
Dear Ms. Seshadri:
This Letter of Intent is provided to BRIDGE Housing (BRIDGE) as evidence of the City of South
San Francisco's commitment to provide additional funding for the development of the approved
affordable rental housing project at 1051 Mission Road in South San Francisco should the City be
awarded State of California Local Housing Trust Fund (LHTF) Program funds. BRIDGE and its
market rate development partners, L37/KASA, sought and were granted entitlements for the
development of 800 units of housing, a 100-head childcare center, neighborhood serving retail,
and publicly accessible open space in 2019. BRIDGE is responsible for the development of the
affordable component of the project, 158 units – all affordable to households earning 60% or less
of the area median income.
In support of the 1051 Mission Road affordable project, the City provided BRIDGE with a $2
million predevelopment loan from the City’s housing trust fund, funded by affordable housing
impact fees on commercial development. BRIDGE drew upon this loan to support its entitlement
application, building permit application, and preparation of funding applications. BRIDGE has
since exhausted these funds and requires additional funding to continue to support predevelopment
activities, such as infrastructure planning and design. At this point, the City wishes to grant
BRIDGE additional funding and is applying for a State LHTF award to match its initial $2 million
commitment to BRIDGE’s project.
Should the City be awarded LHTF funds, the City commits to granting at least $2 million of these
funds to BRIDGE in support of the development of the 1051 Mission Road project, and in
compliance with all LHTF Guidelines and 2024 NOFA requirements.

Dear Ms. Lichthart and Mr. Wright:
This Letter of Intent is provided to the Rotary Club and Beacon Development Group (Rotary-
Beacon) as evidence of the City of South San Francisco's commitment to provide additional
funding for the development of the planned senior affordable rental housing project at 500 Linden
Avenue should the City be awarded State of California Local Housing Trust Fund (LHTF)
Program funds. Rotary-Beacon is currently seeking entitlements for a two-site development, an
80-unit senior affordable housing project at 500 Linden Avenue and a 64-unit affordable family
housing project at 522 Linden Avenue. All of the units will be affordable to households earning
60% or less of the area median income, and 30% of the units will be affordable to households
earning 30% or less of the area median income.
In support of these twin affordable housing projects, the City has approved two loans to the Rotary-
Beacon development group: 1) a loan of Permanent Local Housing Allocation (PLHA) funds for
the senior project at 500 Linden in the amount of $556,789 and 2) a loan of Low/Mod-Income
Housing Asset Funds for the family project at 522 Linden in the amount of $1,076,383. As
provided in the 2024 LHTF NOFA and LHTF Guidelines, LHTF funds may be used to match a
local jurisdiction’s PLHA funds, but not Low/Mod-Income Housing Asset Funds. At this point,
the City wishes to grant Rotary-Beacon additional funding and is applying for a State LHTF award
to match its initial $556,789 commitment (of PLHA funds) to the senior affordable housing project
at 500 Linden.

Should the City be awarded LHTF funds, the City commits to granting at least $556,789 of these
funds to Rotary-Beacon in support of the development of the 500 Linden Avenue project, and in
compliance with all LHTF Guidelines and 2024 NOFA requirements.
