Box 711 (City Hall, 400 Grand Avenue) South San Francisco, CA File #:18-574 Agenda Date:7/25/2018 Version:1 Item #:2. Report recommending approval of an Amendment to the East of 101 Area Plan,a Zoning Text Amendment,a Development Agreement and a Relocation Agreement to allow for the installation of a 65 foot tall,double faced,digital billboard on property located at 180 S Airport in exchange for removal of one double sided billboard along San Mateo Ave and one single sided billboard along El Camino Real,together with other considerations.(Billy Gross, Senior Planner) RECOMMENDATION Staff recommends that the City Council follow the recommendation of the Planning Commission and take the following actions: 1.Adopt a Resolution making findings and determining that the 2018 Addendum to the 2015 Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration is the appropriate environmental document for the Outfront Media Digital Billboard Project; and 2.Introduce an Ordinance making revisions to Chapter 20.360 of the South San Francisco Municipal Code, related to Digital Billboards, and waive further reading; and, 3.Adopt a Resolution making findings and approving Planning Project P17-0065,including Area Plan Amendment GPA17-0003 and a Relocation Agreement based on the draft findings and subject to the attached draft conditions of approval; and, 4.Introduce an Ordinance adopting a Development Agreement DA17-0003 for the installation of a 65 foot tall, double faced digital billboard, and waive further reading. BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION In general,existing City of South San Francisco (City)policies prohibit new billboards from being allowed within the City,in order to protect residential zones and several other areas where there is a concern of establishing visual barriers.However,with the approval of a relocation agreement,the City allows construction of billboards in select commercial/industrial areas,if certain design and land use concerns are addressed,and if there is an exchange that removes billboards from unwanted areas, including residential districts. In 2015,the City Council approved a General Plan Amendment and Zoning Ordinance Text Amendment to allow a limited number of digital billboards along U.S.Highway 101 (US 101)to provide an additional source of revenue for the City,promote economic development and expand the communication of community services. Under current regulations,a maximum of three digital billboards could be located on the west side of US 101, south of Sister Cities Blvd and north of the City’s southern boundary. Outfront Media Billboard Project Outfront Media has submitted a development application for a General Plan Amendment,Zoning Ordinance Text Amendment and a Development Agreement to construct a digital billboard in the landscaped area at 180 S Airport Blvd.The project would consist of a new,double-faced V-shaped outdoor advertising sign with digital message center displays of 14 feet in height and 48 feet in width with an overall elevation of 65 feet above the adjacent parking lot grade. The digital billboard would consist of two 672 square-foot faces mounted in a “V”configuration orientedCity of South San Francisco Printed on 7/19/2018Page 1 of 7 powered by Legistar™ File #:18-574 Agenda Date:7/25/2018 Version:1 Item #:2. The digital billboard would consist of two 672 square-foot faces mounted in a “V”configuration oriented toward the northbound and southbound lanes of US 101.The sign would be smaller than the existing Clear Channel digital sign at 101 Terminal Court,but in other aspects would be similar in appearance.The design proposes minimal frame around the signs.Light sensors would be installed to measure ambient light levels and to adjust light intensity of the sign to respond to any change in ambient light conditions.Lighting levels on the digital billboard would not exceed 0.3 foot candles over ambient levels,as measured using a foot candle meter at a pre-set distance (250 feet for the proposed 14 foot x 48 foot face size).The brightness of the LED display is subject to adjustment based on ambient conditions,so the display may be brighter in the daytime than at night. Billboard Regulations The California Department of Transportation (“Caltrans”)regulates off-premise signage displays along state highways through enforcement of the California Outdoor Advertising Act.Caltrans is also responsible,through an agreement with the Federal Highway Administration,for controlling off-premise signage along interstate highways. Some freeways are classified as “landscaped freeways”,and off-premise signage is not allowed along landscaped freeways except when approved as part of relocation agreements (Bus.&Prof.Code §5412).All of US 101 within the City’s boundaries is classified as a landscaped freeway. EAST OF 101 AREA PLAN AMENDMENTS General Plan Implementing Policy 3.5-I-1 states that the East of 101 Area Plan should be maintained as the detailed implementing guide for the area,and that the East of 101 Area Plan should be amended as appropriate for consistency with the General Plan. The East of 101 Area Plan states that “the billboards and advertising signs in the East of 101 Area create a visual barrier and negative first impression,especially for viewers travelling north on Highway 101.Removal of these signs should be encouraged and no additional signs shall be allowed.” To permit new digital billboards to be located along both sides of the Highway 101 corridor,but still be consistent with desire to remove existing static billboards from the East of 101 Area Plan,the following amendments are proposed to the Design Element policies of the East of 101 Area Plan: Policy DE-32.No new off-site static commercial advertising signs or billboards shall be permitted in the East of 101 Area.New off-site digital commercial billboards may be permitted on parcels immediately adjacent to Highway 101,only upon approval of a Relocation Agreement.Existing static and digital billboards may be renovated,replaced or relocated,only if the City finds that the change would improve the visual character of the billboard and area. Policy DE-33.The City should work to remove all existing off-site static commercial advertising signs and billboards from the East of 101 area. The proposed revisions are intended to give the City the flexibility to allow new digital billboards east of 101 only on parcels immediately adjacent to Highway 101 corridor,but only with the approval of a relocation agreement.The amendments would also continue to allow the City flexibility to enter into relocation agreements for renovations to existing signs located in the East of 101 Area. City of South San Francisco Printed on 7/19/2018Page 2 of 7 powered by Legistar™ File #:18-574 Agenda Date:7/25/2018 Version:1 Item #:2. ZONING TEXT AMENDMENTS (CHAPTER 20.360) As part of the Clear Channel Digital Billboard entitlements in 2015,the City Council adopted regulations allowing up to three digital billboards to be located on the west side of the US 101 corridor,pursuant to the City approving both a Development Agreement and a Relocation Agreement.In order for an applicant to install a digital billboard,the Zoning Ordinance standards require that at least two existing static billboard faces be removed for every one digital billboard face installed. Following is the current Zoning Code language: 20.360.002.A.6.b.Installation of the Digital Billboard,containing up to two billboard faces,will result in a reduction of at least two billboard faces in the City for every digital billboard face installed. As currently written,the standards have no minimum threshold related to the size of the removed or installed billboard faces.The requirement for a Relocation Agreement and Development Agreement to allow the installation of any digital billboard does allow the City to negotiate the sizes of both the installed and removed signs.However,there may be instances in which an applicant does not have adequate inventory of existing billboard faces in the City to meet the two for one reduction requirement. The proposed changes included in the attachments are presented using a strikethrough and double underline format, where text that is struck out is removed and text that is double underlined is added. The following primary amendments to Chapter 20.360 are proposed: Amendments to SSFMC §20.360.002.A.6. 20.360.002.A.6.A relocation agreement may provide for the installation of a Digital Billboard provided that the City Council finds that all of the following are met: a.The Digital Billboard is located in a non-residential district, adjacent to U.S. Highway 101. b.Installation of the Digital Billboard,containing up to two billboard faces,will result in a reduction of at least two billboard faces in the City for every digital billboard face installed,If a billboard applicant does not have sufficient existing billboard faces to remove within the City, the billboard applicant may request the City enter into a development agreement that will set forth the terms and conditions under which the billboard installation will be permitted to operate. The terms and conditions of such a development agreement may include,but are not limited to, the payment of fees,charges,and contributions as mutually agreed,and any such other terms which promote the public health,safety,and welfare in-lieu of applicant removing existing billboard(s)in order to satisfy the 2:1 removal-to-placement ratio requirement,as set forth in this subsection. c.Installation of the Digital Billboard will advance adopted policies contained in the General Plan, and any applicable Specific Plan or Area Plan. d.The Digital Billboard is operated in accordance with the operating standards set forth in Section 20.360.006(Q). Amendments to SSFMC §20.360.006.Q.10. 20.360.006.Q.10 Location.Digital Billboards shall only be permitted in a non-residential district City of South San Francisco Printed on 7/19/2018Page 3 of 7 powered by Legistar™ File #:18-574 Agenda Date:7/25/2018 Version:1 Item #:2. 20.360.006.Q.10 Location.Digital Billboards shall only be permitted in a non-residential district south of Sister Cities Boulevard and north of the City’s southern boundary,and shall be located on parcels immediately adjacent to U.S.Highway 101.Notwithstanding the foregoing,Digital Billboards, and shall not be permitted on parcels adjacent to San Bruno Mountain or in a location that significantly blocks views of San Bruno Mountainon the east side of U.S. Highway 101. DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT The applicant and the City have negotiated a Development Agreement (“DA”)to clarify and obligate Project features and mitigation measures,including annual fees,community service message display time,and City branding. Development Agreement Term The term of the DA would be 30 years. Fees and Taxes The DA includes provisions that obligate Outfront Media to pay the City an annual amount of $80,000 for the digital billboard ($40,000 per face).In the event that the City adopts a gross receipts tax in the future,Outfront Media’s annual payment of such gross receipts tax would be deducted from Outfront Media’s annual payment obligation under the DA. The DA also includes a provision for a one-time in-lieu fee payment of $200,000 for the one billboard face that is needed to satisfy the 2:1 removal-to-construction ratio requirement. City Gateway Signs Outfront Media will reimburse the City up to $140,000 for costs incurred with respect to design and construction of City gateway signs as set forth in the City’s Gateway Master Plan. Community Service Messages Outfront Media will provide the City with free display time on the digital billboard (one two-week advertising spot for each calendar quarter)for advertising the City,City-sponsored events,or other public service announcements. The proposed DA is attached as Exhibit A to the Development Agreement Ordinance. RELOCATION AGREEMENTS The applicant and the City have negotiated a Relocation Agreement to obligate the removal of the existing single-sided billboard at 1340 El Camino Real and the double-sided billboard at 21 San Mateo Ave.,and to allow the new digital billboard at 180 S Airport Blvd.Subject to the adoption of the proposed Zoning Ordinance Amendments to allow a billboard applicant to request that the City enter into a development agreement if the billboard applicant does not have sufficient existing billboard faces to remove within the City, and the subsequent adoption of the Development Agreement,the terms of the Relocation Agreement are in keeping with the proposed zoning code standards. GENERAL PLAN CONFORMITY AND ZONING CONSISTENCY The Project site is designated Business Commercial within the General Plan and is also located within the City of South San Francisco Printed on 7/19/2018Page 4 of 7 powered by Legistar™ File #:18-574 Agenda Date:7/25/2018 Version:1 Item #:2. The Project site is designated Business Commercial within the General Plan and is also located within the Freeway Commercial Zoning District,which provides zoning for uses that benefit from proximity to the Bayshore Freeway (US 101).As discussed above,the Project would require amendments to the East of 101 Area Plan in order to allow digital billboards on parcels immediately adjacent to US 101 corridor in the East of 101 Area,and amendments to the Zoning Ordinance to allow digital billboards to be installed when there are not adequate signs to be removed,subject to approval of a Development Agreement and conformance with specific standards.Subject to approval of the East of 101 Area Plan amendments and Zoning Ordinance amendments,the project would be consistent with the intent and purpose of the General Plan and comply with the Zoning Ordinance standards related to signage. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW In 2015,in conjunction with the entitlements for the billboard project approved for Clear Channel,the City Council adopted an Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration (IS/MND)in accordance with the California Environmental Quality Act,Pub.Resources Code §21000,et seq.(CEQA).The IS/MND analyzed the potential environmental impacts of billboards along the west side of US 101.Environmental issues were identified related to Aesthetics,Air Quality,Cultural Resources,Hazards/Hazardous Materials and Transportation. For the proposed Project,an addendum to the IS/MND was prepared (2018 Addendum)to analyze impacts of digital billboards on the eastern side of the US 101.The 2018 Addendum found that the proposed Project would not result in new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects.The mitigation measures identified in the IS/MND would remain applicable to proposed billboards on the eastern side of US 101.Subject to the implementation of the mitigation measures discussed below, the stated impacts for this Project would be reduced to a less-than-significant impact: ·Aesthetics -The digital billboard will use LED technology to display messages on a lit screen,and therefore could have an impact related to light and glare.The Aesthetics related mitigation measure requires that the applicant perform periodic field testing to demonstrate compliance with a 0.3 footcandle increase over ambient light at 350 feet.If increases in ambient light are above the allowed level,the dimming level shall be adjusted within 24 hours or the billboard shall not be operated until the lighting levels can be brought into compliance. ·Air Quality -Due to the non-attainment status of the air basin,the Bay Area Air Quality Management District (BAAQMD)recommends that projects implement a set of Basic Construction Mitigation Measures.The Air Quality related mitigation measure requires construction contractors to implement all of these BAAQMD construction mitigation measures. ·Cultural Resources -Given the site characteristics,coupled with the regional archaeological sensitivity, there is a moderate potential of unrecorded Native American resources.The mitigation measure requires that the applicant prepare and implement a cultural monitoring and mitigation plan by a qualified archaeologist. ·Hazards and Hazardous Materials -The site has not been assessed for the potential presence of hazardous materials.During the installation process of the billboard,holes would be drilled and the excavated soil would be transported offsite.The project will also include trenching to connect the electrical supply.The first Hazards related mitigation measure would require the site to be assessed for the presence of hazardous materials prior to construction activities,which,if present,would be handled City of South San Francisco Printed on 7/19/2018Page 5 of 7 powered by Legistar™ File #:18-574 Agenda Date:7/25/2018 Version:1 Item #:2. the presence of hazardous materials prior to construction activities,which,if present,would be handled appropriately to ensure the impact would remain less than significant.The second mitigation measure requires the applicant to properly dispose and/or recycle any materials considered electronic waste. ·Traffic -Significant effects could occur if the proposed digital billboard did not comply with restrictions regarding location,intensity of light,light trespass,or other restrictions or includes visual effects or driver interaction that would cause driver distraction.The first Traffic related mitigation measure requires the applicant to submit an annual report regarding compliance with operating standards.The second mitigation measure requires that the digital billboard comply with operational safety standards, including no moving or flashing lights,and no installation of technologies that would allow interaction with drivers, vehicles or any device located in vehicles. PLANNING COMMISSION MEETING At the Planning Commission meeting on June 7,2018,the Commission reviewed the proposed project.No members of the public spoke on the project.The Commission had general questions related to digital billboard operations,and some of the Commission stated a preference for allowing digital billboards only if such an approval would result in an overall reduction in signage within the City.The Commission was supportive of the proposed digital billboard and recommended by a vote of 7-0 that the City Council find that the 2018 Addendum to the IS/MND is the appropriate environmental document for the Project and approve the Area Plan Amendment,Zoning Ordinance Amendment and the other project entitlements.The draft minutes of the Commission meeting are attached to this staff report (Attachment 2). CONCLUSION The proposed Outfront Media billboard project will provide an additional source of revenue for the City, promote economic development and expand the communication of community services along the US 101 corridor, in keeping with the General Plan and East of 101 Area Plan. Based on the information included in the public record,the Planning Commission recommends that the City Council make the required findings and adopt the attached resolutions to find that the 2018 Addendum to the IS/MND is the appropriate environmental document and approve the project entitlements for the Outfront Media project.Additionally,the Planning Commission recommends that the City Council waive reading and introduce an Ordinance to modify Chapter 20.360 “Signs”and waive reading and introduce an Ordinance to approve the requested Development adopt the necessary resolutions.

General Findings 1. The foregoing recitals are true and correct. 2. The Exhibits attached to this Resolution, including the Conditions of Project Approval (Exhibit A), the East of 101 Area Plan Amendment (Exhibit B), Zoning Ordinance Chapter 20.360 Amendments (Exhibit C), the Project Plans (Exhibit D), and the Development Agreement (Exhibit E) are each incorporated by reference and made a part of this Resolution, as if set forth fully herein. 3. The documents and other material constituting the record for these proceedings are located at the Planning Division for the City of South San Francisco, 315 Maple Avenue, South San Francisco, CA 94080, and in the custody of the Planning Manager. B. East of 101 Area Plan Amendment 1. The Area Plan, as proposed for amendment, implements and is consistent with the General Plan. The 1999 General Plan includes policies encouraging the City to consider opportunities for enhancement of financing tools in order to fund various economic development initiatives and to actively market South San Francisco. The Project would amend the East of 101 Area Plan to allow for the installation of new digital off-site billboards in the U.S. Highway 101 corridor subject to the removal of existing static billboards in other areas of the City, and includes provisions for additional revenue for a period of 30 years, subject to the terms of the Project entitlements including the proposed Development Agreement and Relocation Agreement. Further, approval of the Project, including the proposed Development Agreement and Relocation Agreement, will not impede achievement of, and is consistent with, applicable General Plan policies. 2. The Area Plan, as proposed for amendment, implements and is consistent with other provisions of the East of 101 Area Plan, which the General Plan identifies as the guide for detailed implementation of General Plan policies. Policy LU-1 states that developments should be evaluated based on their merits and the net benefits they will provide to the East of 101 Area and the City as a whole. The Project requires an amendment to the East of 101 Area Plan to allow for the installation of new digital off-site billboards in the U.S. Highway 101 corridor subject to the removal of existing static billboards in other areas of the City, and includes provisions for additional revenue to the City for a period of 30 years, subject to the terms of the Project entitlements including the proposed Development Agreement and Relocation Agreement. In addition, the proposed Project is consistent with the Design Policies of the East of 101 Area Plan. 3. The Area Plan, as proposed for amendment, will not be detrimental to the public interest, health, safety, convenience, or welfare of the City, because the amendments would allow for new off-site digital commercial billboards only on parcels immediately adjacent to Highway 101, only upon approval of a relocation agreement, and would not otherwis e revise the prohibition on new static billboards in the East of 101 area. Any revisions to existing billboard signage would continue to be required to be developed in conformance with the applicable standards included in Chapter 20.110 (Employment Districts) and Chapter 20.360 (Signs). 4. The Area Plan, as proposed for amendment, is physically suitable for the type and intensity of the land use being proposed, because the amendments would allow for new off-site digital commercial billboards only on parcels immediately adjacent to Highway 101, upon approval of a relocation agreement. The presence of a billboard on such parcels would not preclude the allowance of land uses permitted within any of the respective zoning districts. C. Zoning Text Amendment 1. The proposed zoning amendments are consistent with the adopted General Plan because they establish regulations that balance the need of different users for adequate identification, communication and advertising with the objectives of protecting the public and promoting a visually attractive community. By allowing the installation of digital billboards subject to a relocation agreement and sign permit, the proposed zoning amendments will assist the City in removing existing static billboards from unwanted locations and replacing with digital signage that provide more timely messaging, strengthen and promote economic development objectives and actively market South San Francisco. The proposed text amendments related to the regulation of digital billboards will remain consistent with the City’s General Plan vision for community and economic development by promoting economic development within the City, expanding the communication of community services, and providing an additional source of revenue for the City. The proposed text amendments will not impede achievement of any of the goals, policies, or land use designations established in the General Plan is consistent with the General Plan, including the East of 101 Area Plan (as proposed for amendment). 2. The proposed zoning amendments related to digital billboards would only affect properties in non-residential districts east of and adjacent to U.S. Highway 101 and have been designed to be appropriate for surrounding uses. The existing standards ensure that proposed projects are suitable in terms of architectural compatibility, consistency with area character, legibility, readability, finish and visibility, and other considerations deemed relevant by the Planning Commission and City Council because the performance standards for digital billboards, including operational limitations related to static messages, maximum lighting levels, a requirement for a light sensing device that adjusts the sign brightness as ambient light conditions change, and location limitations, are included in the existing standards and would be applied to proposed Project to minimize visual impacts. The suitability for the potential digital billboard sites was analyzed in the environmental document prepared for the Project. 3. The proposed zoning amendments related to digital billboards would not result in any change of zoning districts and therefore would not be detrimental to the use of land in any adjacent zone. D. Development Agreement 1. The Owner and City have negotiated a Development Agreement pursuant to Government Code section 65864 et seq. The Development Agreement, attached hereto as Exhibit F, sets for the duration, property, project criteria, and other required information identified in Government Code section 65865.2. Based on the findings in support of the Project, the Planning Commission finds that the Development Agreement, vesting a project for a new digital billboard, is consistent with the objectives, policies, general land uses and programs specified in the South San Francisco General Plan, the East of 101 Area Plan as proposed for amendment, and any applicable zoning regulations. 2. The Development Agreement is compatible with the uses authorized in, and the regulations prescribed for the land use district in which the real property is located. The subject site is suitable for the type and intensity of the land use being proposed. The General Plan specifically contemplates the proposed type of project and the suitability of the site for development was analyzed thoroughly in the environmental document prepared for the Project. 3. The Development Agreement is in conformity with public convenience, general welfare and good land use practice in that the project will implement guidelines set forth in the General Plan and the East of 101 Area Plan, which encourage the City to consider opportunities for enhancement of financing tools in order to fund various economic development initiatives and to actively market South San Francisco. 4. The Development Agreement will not be detrimental to the health, safety and general welfare because the project will proceed in compliance with all of the policies and programs specified in the General Plan and the East of 101 Area Plan and in compliance with all applicable zoning, subdivision, and building regulations of the City of South San Francisco. 5. The Development Agreement will not adversely affect the orderly development of property or the preservation of property values in that the project will be consistent with the General Plan and the East of 101 Area Plan, as proposed for amendment. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that subject to the Conditions of Approval, attached as Exhibit A to this resolution, the Planning Commission of the City of South San Francisco hereby makes the findings contained in this Resolution, and recommends that the City Council adopt a resolution approving the East of 101 Area Plan Amendment (attached as Exhibit B).

B.CEQA Findings 1.The City Council,pursuant to CEQA Guidelines section 15164,subsection (d),has considered the 2018 Addendum prepared for the Project including the related environmental analysis,along with the previously certified 2015 IS/MND. 2.The Applicant’s project constitutes a minor refinement to the scope of development approved by the City Council in 2015 and analyzed in the 2015 IS/MND. 3.Based on the 2015 IS/MND and the 2018 Addendum,the City Council finds that the proposed Project will have the following significant impacts that can be reduced to insignificant with implementation of mitigation measures identified in the 2015 IS/MND, as follows: i.Visual Resources.Business and Professions Code section 5403(g)defines the brightness standard for changeable electronic variable message billboards in relation to Vehicle Code section 21466.5,which provides: No person shall place or maintain or display,upon or in view of any highway,any light of any color of such brilliance as to impair the vision of drivers upon the highway.A light source shall be considered vision impairing when its brilliance exceeds the values listed below. The brightness reading of an objectionable light source shall be measured with a 11/2-degree photoelectric brightness meter placed at the driver’s point of view. The maximum measured City of South San Francisco Printed on 7/19/2018Page 2 of 6 powered by Legistar™ File #:18-575 Agenda Date:7/25/2018 Version:1 Item #:2a. brightness of the light source within 10 degrees from the driver’s normal line of sight shall not be more than 1,000 times the minimum measured brightness in the driver’s field of view, except that when the minimum measured brightness in the field of view is 10 foot-lamberts or less, the measured brightness of the light source in foot-lambert shall not exceed 500 plus 100 times the angle, in degrees, between the driver’s line of sight and the light source. Under the foregoing,the most conservative brightness limit with which the Signs would have to comply is 500 foot lamberts,which is equivalent to 1713 nits.The Applicant proposes to operate the signs’ night-time limit in accordance with the recommendations of the Outdoor Advertising Association of America (OAAA),which indicates that the maximum ambient light output should be 0.3 foot candles at a distance of 250 feet from billboard facings.For a frame of reference,0.3 foot candles is comparable in brightness to the light emanating from a computer monitor,and the light levels emitted from the proposed billboards would be set to adjust based upon ambient light conditions at any given time (i.e., nighttime versus daytime).These operational parameters (i.e.,0.3 foot candles at 250 feet)translate into a brightness of about 300 nits,meaning that the signs would always operate at one-sixth of the maximum brightness level for LED billboards,as set forth by California state law.As discussed in the 2015 IS/MND and 2018 Addendum,the Project would,from a conservative standpoint,have the potential to significantly impact the environment if it operated at levels that increase lighting levels by more than 0.3 foot candles at 250 feet.The City Council finds that implementation of Mitigation Measure Visual-1 (as identified in the 2015 IS/MND),which requires testing to ensure light from the Applicant’s Digital Billboard,will comply with the threshold of 0.3 foot candles at 250 feet,and will ensure impacts remain less than significant and significant impacts are avoided. ii.Air Quality.The Bay Area Air Quality Management District (BAAQMD)has developed screening criteria whereby an agency can quickly determine whether a given development project has the potential to exceed adopted pollution thresholds.A review of these screening thresholds demonstrates that neither construction nor operation of the sign has the potential to generate significant emissions.For instance,BAAQMD has determined that,to violate operational emissions criteria,a use more intense than a 451-unit apartment building would have to be constructed.To exceed construction- related criteria,a 240-unit apartment construction project would have to be undertaken.Operation of the electric sign would not involve the generation of emissions and,while the limited amount of construction work during the expected 1-to 2-week construction period would not exceed (or be anywhere near)the emissions associated with construction of a 240-unit apartment building,the City Council finds,conservatively,that the Project would have the potential to generate dust and other air emissions.The City Council further finds that,given the short duration of construction,the implementation of the BAAQMD’s basic construction management practices,as identified in Mitigation Measure Air-1 of the 2015 IS/MND,would ensure that construction air emissions are reduced to less- than-significant impacts. iii.Cultural Resources.Cultural resources are protected by a number of state laws and regulations, including CEQA Guidelines sections 15064.5 and 15126.4(b)(3)(C),Government Code section 27450 et seq,and Public Resources Code section 5097.98,which require,in part,the development and implementation of a Data Recovery Plan that would include recommendations for the treatment of the discovered archaeological materials.The Project site is a developed,urban infill site located in a non- residential area of the City,adjacent to U.S.Highway 101.However,the Project entails digging a foundation for the Applicant’s Digital Billboard,and therefore there is a moderate potential that construction workers would encounter undiscovered cultural,paleontological,tribal,or other resources. The City Council finds that adherence to applicable law and implementation of Mitigation Measure City of South San Francisco Printed on 7/19/2018Page 3 of 6 powered by Legistar™ File #:18-575 Agenda Date:7/25/2018 Version:1 Item #:2a. The City Council finds that adherence to applicable law and implementation of Mitigation Measure Cultural-1,which sets forth procedures that construction workers must follow in the event that cultural resources are encountered,and which includes adherence to a monitoring and mitigation plan prepared by a qualified expert, would reduce impacts to a less-than-significant level. iv.Hazardous Materials.The Project entails the removal of aging signs that could contain asbestos and other hazardous materials.All construction activities would be required to conform to Title 49 of the Code of Federal Regulations,US Department of Transportation (DOT),State of California,and local laws,ordinances and procedures.These include,without limitation,California Health and Safety Code section 19827.5,Cal/OSHA Lead Construction Standards,BAAQMD Regulation 11,Rule 2,Title 22,California Code of Regulations,Section 66261.24,Title 8,California Code of Regulations,Section 1532.1,and Title 40,Code of Federal Regulations,Part 745.The Project also is subject to the City's National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES)permit,which requires best management practices for reduction of erosion,sediment and pollutants in runoff waters.The City Council finds that, with adherence to applicable law and Mitigation Measure Haz-2,as set forth in the 2015 IS/MND, impacts would be less than significant and significant impacts are avoided. v.Transportation.As identified in the 2015 IS/MND and 2018 Addendum,significant effects could occur if the Applicant’s Digital Billboard did not comply with restrictions regarding location,intensity of light,light trespass,or other restrictions,or includes visual effects of driver interaction that would cause driver distraction.The City Council finds that the proposed Digital Billboard is designed to comply with all applicable law,and that its 8-second dwell time would not have the potential to cause driver distraction,but that implementation of Mitigation Measure Traf-1,which requires annual reports on the operation of the sign,and Mitigation Measure Traf-2,which prohibits the display of moving or flashing lights and prohibits the installation of certain technologies,would ensure impacts remain less-than- significant and significant impacts are avoided. 4.Upon consideration of the 2018 Addendum,the City Council finds that the proposed Project will not result in any of the conditions identified in CEQA Guidelines section 15162 that would require further environmental review through preparation of a subsequent EIR. More specifically: i.There are no substantial changes proposed in the project which will require major revisions of the negative declaration due to the involvement of new significant environment effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects.The applicant seeks to implement the project as originally evaluated in the 2015 IS/MND with only minor refinements.Allowing signs on the east side of U.S.Highway 101 would result in digital billboards located approximately 200 feet away from areas originally designated for the placement of digital billboards on the west side of U.S. Highway 101.Moreover,the Applicant’s proposed sign is within the development standards,including heights and area,as originally evaluated in the 2015 IS/MND.The Federal Aviation Administration has reviewed the plans for the Applicant’s Digital Billboard and,on June 5,2017,determined it did not constitute a hazard to air navigation.Therefore,the project’s impacts have already been analyzed as required under CEQA,no major revisions to the 2015 IS/MND are required,and no new significant effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified effects would occur. ii.No substantial changes have occurred with respect to the circumstances under which the project is undertaken which will require major revisions of the negative declaration due to the involvement of new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects.There have been no significant changes in surrounding City of South San Francisco Printed on 7/19/2018Page 4 of 6 powered by Legistar™ File #:18-575 Agenda Date:7/25/2018 Version:1 Item #:2a. previously identified significant effects.There have been no significant changes in surrounding developments,development patterns,or highway and circulation networks in the vicinity of the proposed Project that would bear on the impacts of operating a digital billboard.Therefore,there exists no changed circumstances that would require major revisions to the 2015 IS/MND,or would result in new significant effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects. iii.New information of substantial importance,which was not known and could not have been known with the exercise of reasonable diligence at the time the previous negative declaration was adopted, does not exist that shows any of the following: a.The project will have one or more significant effects not discussed in the 2015 IS/MND.The Applicant seeks to develop a project that was within the scope of activity already evaluated in the 2015 IS/MND and the Applicant’s Digital Billboard is proposed in an area in the vicinity of the project area previously studied,is designed similarly,and would be subject to the same operational parameters.Moreover,digital sign technology during this time period has not significantly changed. Accordingly,there is no new information of substantial importance that was not known at the time the 2015 IS/MND was adopted that would show the project would have one or more significant effects not discussed in the 2015 IS/MND. b.Significant effects previously examined will be substantially more severe than shown in the previous negative declaration.The Applicant seeks to develop a project that was within the scope of activity already evaluated in the 2015 IS/MND and,as explained above,the Applicant’s Digital Billboard is proposed in an area in the vicinity of the project area previously studied,is designed similarly,and would be subject to the same operational parameters.Moreover,digital sign technology during this time period has not significantly changed.Accordingly,there is no new information of substantial importance that was not known at the time the 2015 IS/MND was adopted that would show the project would have significant effects previously examined that would be substantially more severe. c.Mitigation measures or alternatives previously found not to be feasible would in fact be feasible and would substantially reduce one or more significant effects of the project,but the project proponents decline to adopt the mitigation measures or alternatives.The Applicant seeks to develop a project that was within the scope of activity already evaluated in the 2015 IS/MND and, as explained above,the Applicant’s Digital Billboard is proposed in an area in the vicinity of the project area previously studied,is designed similarly,and would be subject to the same operational parameters.Moreover,digital sign technology during this time period has not significantly changed. Accordingly,all impacts of Project development would be less than significant with the application of mitigation measures originally identified in the 2015 IS/MND,and no substantial changes in the feasibility of any of the original mitigation measures have been identified,and no further mitigation is necessary.The applicant would be required to comply with the specified measures as conditions of approval. d.Mitigation measures or alternatives which are considerably different from those analyzed in the negative declaration would substantially reduce one or more significant effects on the environment, but the project proponents decline to adopt the mitigation measures or alternatives.The Applicant seeks to develop a project that was within the scope of activity already evaluated in the 2015 IS/MND and,as explained above,the Applicant’s Digital Billboard is proposed in an area in the City of South San Francisco Printed on 7/19/2018Page 5 of 6 powered by Legistar™ File #:18-575 Agenda Date:7/25/2018 Version:1 Item #:2a. IS/MND and,as explained above,the Applicant’s Digital Billboard is proposed in an area in the vicinity of the project area previously studied,is designed similarly,and would be subject to the same operational parameters.Moreover,digital sign technology during this time period has not significantly changed.Accordingly,all impacts of Project development would be less than significant with the application of mitigation measures originally identified in the 2015 IS/MND, and no mitigation measures or alternatives which are considerably different than the original mitigation measures are necessary to reduce Project impacts to less than significant.Nor have any mitigation measures or alternatives been identified,and that the Applicant has declined to adopt,that would substantially reduce significant effects of the Project on the environment. 5.The Project will not create any new significant impacts or substantially more severe impacts as compared to those already identified and analyzed in the 2015 IS/MND.Further,the City Council finds that there is no new information of substantial importance that demonstrates new or substantially more severe significant effects,as compared to those identified in the prior CEQA documents.Nor are any new or additional mitigation measures required to mitigate any impacts of the Project. 6.Accordingly,the City Council finds that CEQA Guidelines section 15162 does not require any further CEQA review,and that the 2018 Addendum,prepared pursuant to CEQA Guidelines section 15164,is the appropriate environmental document for approval of the Project. NOW,THEREFORE,BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the City Council of the City of South San Francisco hereby makes the findings contained in this Resolution,and makes a determination that the 2018 Addendum is the appropriate environmental document for approval of the Project and no further environmental review is required. BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that this Resolution shall become effective immediately upon its passage and adoption.

TheProjectsiteissubjecttotheBay AreaCleanAirPlan, firstadoptedbytheBay AreaAirQualityManagement District (BAAQMD) (inassociationwiththeMetropolitan Transportation CommissionandtheAssociationofBayAreaGovernments) in1991tomeetstate requirements andthoseoftheFederalCleanAirAct. Asrequiredbystatelaw, updatesaredeveloped approximatelyeverythreeyears. Theplanismeanttodemonstrate progresstowardmeetingtheozone standards, butalsoincludes otherelementsrelatedtoparticulatematter, toxicaircontaminants, and greenhousegases. Thelatestupdatetotheplan, whichwasadoptedinSeptember2010, iscalledthe BayArea2010CleanAirPlan. Aprojectwouldbejudgedtoconflictwithorobstructimplementationoftheregionalairqualityplan ifitwouldbeinconsistentwithregional growthassumptionsorimplementation ofcontrolstrategies. TheProjectwouldhavenoeffectongrowth ofpopulation orvehicletravelandtheCleanAirPlan doesnotrecommendmeasuresdirectlyapplicabletothistypeofuse. TheProject, therefore, wouldbe generallyconsistentwiththeCleanAirPlanandhavealessthansignificantimpactinthisregard. b-c) AirQualityStandards/CriteriaPollutants.

Abiologicalassessment wasconducted byH.T. Harveyandassociates, asincludedinfullasAttachmentA. Thisincludedbothdaytimeandevening sitevisitsonAugust27, 2012andanotherdaytimevisitonAugust31, 2012. TheProjectsiteislocatedontheperimeterofalargecommercialparkinglot. Theprojectsiteis pavedandcompletelydevoidofvegetationintheimmediatevicinityoftheproposedbillboard. Achain-linkfenceseparatestheProjectsitefromanapproximately45-ftwidestripofruderal (i.e., disturbance-associated) vegetationthatoccupiestheareabetweentheProjectsiteandU.S. 101tothe east. Dominantspeciespresent intheadjacentruderalhabitatincludecypress (Cupressus sp.), toyon Heteromelesarbutifolia), andnon-native Frenchbroom (Cytisusmonspessulanus). Theruderal habitatimmediatelyeastoftheProjectsite (approximately26fteastoftheproposedbillboardpole) alsosupportsawetlandwithadense standofhorsetail (Equisetumsp.). Thiswetlandappearstobe supportedbyrunofffromtheadjacentparkinglot, andmeetsthephysicalcriteriaandregulatory definitionof “watersoftheUnitedStates”. DirectEffects ofBillboard Installation DuetothehighlydisturbednatureoftheProjectsiteandtheimmediatelysurroundingvicinity, itis extremelyunlikelythatanyspecial-statusspecieswouldoccurintheProjectarea. Thevastmajority ofplantandanimalspeciesoccurringhereareverycommonspeciesassociatedwithurban, developed, andruderalconditionsthroughouttheSanFrancisco Bayarea. Therewasnoevidencethat 101 Terminal Court ClearChannel Billboard Project Page 37 sensitive specieswerepresentontheProjectsiteandnohabitatcapableofsupporting sensitive speciesispresentwithinorimmediatelyadjacenttothesite. Nowetlands, riparianhabitats, orothersensitivehabitatsarepresentwithintheimmediate Project site. Thus, sinceconstruction doesnotextendintothehorsetail-linedwetlandtotheeast, nosensitive habitatswouldbeimpactedbytheconstruction ofthebillboard. Further, nospecial-statusplantor wildlifespecies areexpectedtooccurwithintheProject area. Theonlywildlifespeciesthatmaybe usinghabitatsintheimmediate vicinityoftheProjectsiteduringconstructionarecommonbirdssuch asthehousefinch (Carpodacusmexicanus), American robin (Turdusmigratorius), andnorthern mockingbird (Mimuspolyglottos). Thesespeciesarelocallyandregionallyabundant, andProject effectsonthesespecieswillnotbesignificantundertheCEQA. Theimpactrelatedtodirecteffectsonspecial-statusspeciesandhabitatswouldbelessthan significant. IndirectEffectsofIlluminanceonOff-SiteAreas Thepotentialforimpactsrelatedtoilluminanceofthebillboardonwildlifeinoff-siteareaswas assessed. Someanimalsareextremelysensitivetolightqueues, whichinfluencetheirphysiologyand shapetheirbehaviors, particularlyduringbreedingseason. Artificiallightingmayindirectlyimpact mammalsandbirdsbyincreasing thenocturnal activityofpredators and/orcausing avoidanceof well-litareasresultinginanetlossofhabitatavailabilityandquality. TheProjectsiteiscompletelysurroundedbyurbanhabitatsthatdonotsupportsensitivespeciesthat mightbesignificantlyimpactedbyilluminancefromtheproposedLEDbillboard.

Thephysicalstructureofthebillboarditselfwouldnotimpactthemovementof anywildlifespecies. However, avianflight behaviorcouldbeimpactedbyartificialilluminance. The primarywayinwhichtheluminanceofanLEDbillboardmightimpactthemovementsofbirdsinthe Projectareaisthroughthedisorientationofnocturnallymigratingbirds. Suchbirdsmayaltertheir orientation uponsightingthelightandbecomedrawntowardthebillboard, potentiallystriking objectssuchasbuildings, adjacentpowerlines, oreventhebillboarditself. Thevisibility oftheproposedLEDbillboard tobirdsinflight, andthustherisktheyposetoflying birds, dependsprimarilyonthebeamangleofthebillboardsrelativetotheflightlinesofbirds andon theluminance (brightness) ofthebillboardsasperceived bythebirds. ThedirectionalnatureofLED lightingandtheprojectedviewing anglevalues of ± 30° verticallyand ± 60° horizontallysuggest that theviewingangleofthebillboardswill benarrowenoughtoprecludeattractingmigratingbirdson clear nights, whentheyflyhighenoughtobeoutsidetheviewingangleofthebillboard. Shaders locatedaboveeachrowoflightswillpreventlightfromprojectingupwardintothesky. Asaresult, birdsflyingmorethan30° abovethecenter ofthebillboard’sbeamanglewillnotbeaffectedbylight fromthebillboard. However, migratingbirdsareforcedtoflylowduringfoggy andrainyconditions, whichmaybringthemintotheviewingangleofthebillboard. TheLEDdisplayonthebillboardfacecanbechanged every8secondsfromastaticimagetoastatic image, resultinginachanginglightsource. Colorsandpatternsofcoloronthebillboardwouldthus Page 38 101 TerminalCourt Clear Channel Billboard Project bechanging, and birdsflyingnearthebillboardwouldnotperceiveitasafixed, unchanginglight, the typeoflightthatappearstobemostattractivetobirds. Itispossiblethatsomebirdsthatfindthemselves nearthecenterofthebeamanglemaybeattracted tothebillboard. However, thisisnotexpectedtoresultinlong-termconsequences, suchasincreased bird-strikemortalitiesorsubstantial interferencewithbirdmovements becausethebillboardwillbe focusedonthehighway, notonairspaceabovethehighway. Thus, arelativelylimitedareaatlow altitudeaboveU.S. 101willbewithinthecenterofthebillboard’sbeamangle.

Noiseimpactsresultingfromconstruction dependonthenoise generatedbyvariouspiecesofconstruction equipment, thetiminganddurationofnoisegenerating activities, andthedistancebetweenconstruction noisesourcesandnoisesensitivereceptors. Constructionnoiseimpactsprimarilyoccurwhen constructionactivitiesoccurduringnoise-sensitive timesoftheday (earlymorning, evening, ornighttime hours), theconstructionoccursinareas immediatelyadjoiningnoisesensitivelanduses, orwhenconstructiondurationslastoverextended periodsoftime (typicallygreaterthanoneyear).

Reasonableregulationofthehoursofconstruction, aswellasregulationofthearrivalandoperationofheavyequipmentandthedeliveryofconstruction material, arenecessarytoprotectthehealthandsafetyofpersons, promotethegeneralwelfareofthe community, andmaintainthequalityoflife. TheSouthSanFrancisco NoiseOrdinance (Chapter8.32oftheMunicipal Code, Section8.32.050) restrictsconstruction activitiestothehoursof8:00a.m. to8:00p.m. onweekdays, 9:00a.m. to8:00 p.m. onSaturdays, and10:00a.m. to6:00p.m. onSundaysandholidays.

(AgreementdatedFebruary 15, 1968) TheFHWAhasrespondedtothedevelopment ofsignsthatpresentchangingmessages, either mechanicallyordigitally, withaninterpretationofitsagreements withthestatespursuanttothe HighwayBeautificationAct. TheFHWAdiscussed “changeablemessage signs” inaMemorandum datedJuly17, 1996, concludingthatastatecouldreasonablyinterprettheprovisions ofitsagreement withtheFHWA “…toallowchangeablemessagesigns… Thefrequencyofmessagechangeand limitationinspacingforthesesignsshouldbedeterminedbytheState.” OnSeptember25, 2007theFHWAagainissuedaMemorandumonthesubjectofoff-premises changeableelectronicvariablemessagesigns, orCEVMS. TheMemorandum statedthatproposed laws, regulations andproceduresthatallowedCEVMSsubjecttoacceptablecriteriawouldnotviolate theprohibitionon “intermittent” or “flashing” or “moving” signsasusedinthestateagreements. The Memorandumidentified “rangesofacceptability” relatingtosuchsignage, asfollows: Durationofmessage: Durationofdisplayisgenerallybetween4and10seconds; 8secondsis recommended; Transitiontime: Transitionbetweenmessagesis generallybetween1and4seconds; 1to2 secondsis recommended; Brightness: Thesignbrightnessshouldbeadjustedtorespondtochangesinlightlevels; Spacing: Spacingbetweenthesigns shouldbenotlessthantheminimum specifiedforother billboards, orgreaterifdeemedrequiredforsafety; Locations: Locationcriteriaarethesameasforothersignage, unlessitisdeterminedthatspecific locations areinappropriate. TheProject asproposedwillcomplywiththesecriteria. TheMemorandumalsoreferredtootherstandardsthathavebeenfoundhelpfultoensuredriver safety. Theseincludeadefaultdesignedtofreezethedisplayinonestillpositionifamalfunction occurs; aprocessformodifying displaysandlightinglevelswheredirectedbyCaltranstoassure safetyofthemotoringpublic; andrequirements thatadisplaycontainstaticmessageswithout movementsuchasanimation, flashing, scrolling, intermittentorfull-motion video.

InadditiontotheprovisionsoftheHighway BeautificationAct (23U.S.C. §131) andtheFHWA memorandadiscussedabove, thestate ofCaliforniahasadoptedtheOutdoorAdvertisingAct BusinessandProfessionsCode §§5200etseq.) andregulationsimplementing itsprovisions California CodeofRegulations, Title4, Division6, §§2240etseq.). Theseincludeprovisions that dealspecifically with “messagecenters,” whicharedefinedas “…anadvertisingdisplaywherethe messageischanged morethanonceeverytwominutes, butnomorethanonceeveryfourseconds.” 5216.4) ConsistentwiththememorandaexecutedpursuanttotheHighwayBeautification Act, theOutdoor AdvertisingActprovidesthatmessagecenterdisplaysthatcomply withitsrequirements arenot considered flashing, intermittentormovinglight.

T. Harvey & Associateshasperformedabiological impactsassessment for the construction ofan LEDbillboard at101Terminal Court, South SanFrancisco, California Figure 1). Theproject site isbounded byHighway 101 totheeast and extensivecommercial development tothenorth, west, andsouth. According toinformation youprovided, the new billboard would haveanoverall heightof 70 feet (ft) andawidthof48 ftwitha14ftby48ftLED displayscreenmountedabove apole with a56 ftclearancefromgrade. The billboard would display multiple advertisements, cycling betweenads every8seconds, andwould beequipped withambient lightsensors, which would adjustthebrightnessofthedisplay correlating withambientlighting conditions. Weunderstand thatthe billboardtechnology willbe thesameasthat utilizedforthe ClearChannel LED billboard alongHighway 92thatweanalyzed in 2008andthatthesameassumptions canbe made regarding illuminance. METHODS I conducted adaytime sitevisiton27 August 2012 toinspecthabitat conditionsimmediately surrounding theproposedsignlocation (whichcould potentiallybe disturbed duringthe installation ofthenewLEDsign) andin adjacent areas thatcouldbeindirectly affectedbythe project. I returned tothe sitethateveningto observequalitatively the existingambientlighting in thevicinityoftheproject sitetoprovide abasisfordeterminingthepotentialdirect and Inaddition, H. T. Harvey & Associates seniorplant/wetlandecologist Patrick Boursier, Ph.D., conducted asitevisiton 31August 2012 toassessthe siteforthe presenceofpotentiallysensitive habitats (e.g., wetlands). Followingthe completion ofthesurveys, I determined thepotential fortheinstallationofthebillboard to impactbiological resources, suchas special-status speciesandsensitive/regulatedhabitats, based onthe conditions attheproposedbillboard location. EXISTINGSITECONDITIONS Theproject siteislocatedon theperimeter ofa . A chain-linkfenceseparates theproject sitefroman approximately 45-ftwidestrip ofruderal (i.e., disturbance-associated) vegetation thatoccupies theareabetween theprojectsiteandHighway 983University Avenue, Building D LosGatos, CA 95032 Ph: 408.458.3200 F: 408.458.3210 SantaRosa NAPA Detail YOLONapaCaliforniaSONOMAFairfield SOLANO MARIN Martinez Stockton SanRafael CONTRA COSTA SanFrancisco Oakland SAN FRANCISCO ALAMEDA Project RedwoodCity Vicinity SanJoseSANMATEO STANISLAUS SANTA CLARA PACIFIC OCEAN SANTA CRUZ SantaCruz Hollister020 SANBENIMilesMONTEREY ProjectSite 2102 Sources: Esri, DeLorme, NAVTEQ, USGS, Intermap, iPC, NRCAN, EsriMilesJapan, METI, EsriChina (HongKong), Esri (Thailand), TomTom, 2012 Figure 1: Vicinity Map SSFClearChannelBillboard (3410-01) September2012 101 totheeast. Theprojectsiteis pavedand completely devoid ofvegetation; however, dominant species present intheadjacentruderal habitat include cypress (Cupressus sp.), toyon Heteromeles arbutifolia), andnon-native Frenchbroom (Cytisus monspessulanus). Theruderal habitatimmediately eastoftheproject site (approximately26fteastoftheproposedbillboard pole) also supports awetland with adense standofhorsetail (Equisetum sp.). Thiswetland appearstobesupportedbyrunoff fromthe adjacent parkinglot, andmeets the physicalcriteria w Duetothehighlydisturbed natureoftheprojectsiteandtheimmediately surrounding vicinity, it isextremely unlikely thatanyspecial-status specieswouldoccurin theprojectarea. Thevast majorityof plant andanimal speciesoccurringhere areverycommon speciesassociated with urban, developed, andruderalconditions throughoutthe SanFrancisco Bayarea. There was no evidence thatsensitive species were present on theproject site and nohabitat capable of supporting sensitive speciesispresentwithinorimmediately adjacenttothesite. BIOLOGICALIMPACTSASSESSMENT Potentialproject impactsonbioticresourceswereevaluatedfromthree differentperspectives: Thedirecteffects oftheinstallation ofan LEDbillboardonbioticresources Theindirect effectsofilluminance fromtheLEDbillboard (i.e., theamountoflightfrom thebillboardthatlandsona certain area) onsensitive species inadjacentareas i.e., theamountoflightleaving surfaceasseen bytheeye) onthebehaviorof birdsflyinginthesitevicinity Ineach case, thestandardsagainstwhich wemeasuredthesignificance of potentialimpactswere theCalifornia Environmental QualityAct (CEQA) significancecriteria. Thesepotential impacts areassessed indetailbelow. DESIIRECTFFECTSOFIGNNSTALLATION Allactivity associated withinstallation oftheLEDbillboard attheprojectsiteispresumed to takeplace within thepavedparkinglot, withmost such activityconcentrated intheimmediate vicinityofthebillboard. Nowetlands, riparian habitats, orothersensitive habitats arepresentwithintheimmediate project site. Thus, aslong asconstruction does notextendinto thehorsetail-linedwetlandtothe east, nosensitive habitats would beimpactedby theconstruction ofthebillboard. Further, no special-status plantorwildlife species areexpected tooccurwithin theprojectarea. Theonly wildlife speciesthat maybe usinghabitats intheimmediate vicinityofthe projectsite during construction are commonbirds suchasthehouse finch (Carpodacusmexicanus), American robin (Turdus migratorius), andnorthern mockingbird (Mimuspolyglottos). Thesespecies are locallyandregionallyabundant, andproject effectsonthese specieswillnotbe significant under theCEQA. Insummary, nobiologicalimpacts thatare significantunder CEQAwilloccuras aresult of the installation ofa billboard atthislocation. 3 H. T. HARVEY & ASSOCIATES IEIAANDIRECTFFECTSOFLLUMINANCEOFDJACENTREAS Manyanimalsareextremely sensitivetolightcues, whichinfluencetheirphysiologyand shape theirbehaviors, particularly duringthe breeding season (Ringer1972, deMolenaar etal. 2006). Artificiallighthas beenusedasameansofmanipulatingbreeding behavior andproductivity in captivebirdsfordecades (deMolenaar etal. 2006), andhas beenshowntoinfluence the territorial singingbehavior ofwildbirds (Longcore and Rich 2004, Miller 2006, deMolenaar et al. 2006). Whileitisdifficult to extrapolate resultsofexperiments oncaptive birdsto wild populations, itis knownthatphotoperiod (the relative amountoflightanddarkin a24-hour period) isanessential cuetriggeringphysiological processes asdiverse asgrowth, metabolism, development, breeding behavior, andmolting (de Molenaar etal. 2006). Thisholds truefor birds, mammals (Beier2006), and other taxaaswell, suggestingthatincreasesinambient light mayinterfere with these processes across a wide rangeofspecies, resulting inimpactstowildlife populations. Artificiallightingmay indirectlyimpactmammals andbirdsbyincreasing thenocturnalactivity ofpredators likeowls, hawks, andmammalian predators (Negro etal2000, LongcoreandRich 2004, DeCandido and Allen2006, Beier 2006). Thepresence ofartificiallight mayalso influence habitat use byrodentssuch asthesaltmarshharvestmouse (Reithrodontomys raviventris) andsaltmarsh wanderingshrew (Sorex vagranshalicoetes) (Beier 2006), andby breedingbirds (Rogers et al. 2006, deMolenaar etal. 2006), bycausing avoidance ofwell-lit areas, resulting inanetlossofhabitat availabilityandquality. Theprojectsiteiscompletely surrounded byurban habitats thatdo notsupportsensitive species thatmightbe significantly impactedbyilluminance fromtheproposed LEDbillboard. Similarly, thesmallwetlandimmediately adjacenttotheproject siteisnot expectedtosupport sensitivespecies. TheSanFrancisco Bay tothe east provides suitablehabitat foravariety of wildlife, including thefederally andstate listedCaliforniaclapperrail (Rallus longirostris obsoletus), and the federallylisted missionbluebutterfly (Ariciaicarioides missionensis) has beenobservedatSign HillPark tothenorthofthe projectsite (CNDDB2012). However, these habitatsarelocatedtoofarfromtheprojectsitetobeaffectedby illuminance fromthe proposed LEDbillboard. Similarly, ColmaCreek to thenorth oftheproject siteandthe unnamed channel tothesouth are located toofarfromthe projectsiteto beaffectedbyilluminancefrom the proposed billboard. According tomaterialprovided by ClearChannel Outdoor, theproposedLEDbillboardis expected to providea maximumof2.23footcandles (fc) of illuminance (aboveandbeyond ambient light conditions) at 100ft (L. Musica, pers. comm.) within itsviewingangle. Illuminance woulddecrease with lateraldistancefromthe centeroftheviewing angle, sothat areas100ft fromthebillboard oneither sideof thecenterof theviewingangle wouldexperience even less illuminance. Theviewing angleofthe proposedLED billboardwould be 30 vertically and 60 horizontally oneachside (R. Hatton, pers. comm.). TheLED billboard wouldbeangledin suchawayas tomaximize theamount of visibility fromaspecificportion of Highway 101, so theareaofbrightestnight illuminance projected bythe proposedbillboard would form a narrowconedirectedatoncomingtraffic. Furthertheilluminancewould dissipate so thatilluminancebeyond100ftwould beminimalandthatbeyond500ftnegligible. Thus, the proposedLEDbillboard isnotexpected tosubstantially increase theamountofilluminance 4 H. T. HARVEY & ASSOCIATES currentlyexperienced bysensitive habitats (and thespeciesinhabiting them) within San FranciscoBay, whichis locatedover 3600ft totheeast, orSignHillPark, which islocated over 5800fttothe north. Therefore, wedonotexpect illuminance fromtheLEDbillboard toresult in significantimpacts onthese sensitivehabitatsortheirassociated wildlife species. PELEDBLAFBOTENTIALFFECTSOFILLBOARDSUMINANCEONVIANLIGHTEHAVIOR The primary way inwhich theluminanceof anLEDbillboardmightimpactthemovements of birds intheproject area isthroughthe disorientationofnocturnally migratingbirds. Such birds mayalter theirorientation uponsightingthe lightandbecome drawntowardthesign, potentially strikingobjectssuch as buildings, adjacent powerlines, or eventhesignitself. Migrating birds whenvisibilityis poor (Longcore andRich 2004, Gauthreaux andBelser 2006). Hundredsofbirdspecies migrate nocturnally inordertoavoid diurnal predators andtominimize energyexpenditures. Evidence thatmigratingbirds areattracted toartificiallightsourcesis abundant intheliterature asearly asthelate 1800s (Gauthreauxand Belser2006). Although the mechanism causingmigrating birdstobe attracted tobrightlights isunknown, theattraction is welldocumented (Longcore andRich 2004, Gauthreaux andBelser2006). Migrating birdsare frequently drawnfromtheir migratoryflight paths intothevicinityofanartificiallightsource, light (Herbert1970, Gauthreaux and Belser2006). Whenbirds aredrawnto artificiallights duringtheirmigration, they become disoriented andpossiblyblinded by theintensityofthelight (Gauthreaux and Belser2006). Thedisorienting andblindingeffects ofartificiallights directlyimpactmigratory birdsbycausingcollisions with lightstructures, buildings, communication andpowerstructures, oreventheground (GauthreauxandBelser 2006). Indirect impactsonmigrating birds might includeorientation mistakes andincreased lengthofmigration duetolight-drivendetours. Effects oftheProposed LEDBillboardsonFlight Behavior Thevisibilityof theproposedLEDbillboardto birdsinflight, andthus theriskit poses toflying birds, depends primarily onthebeamangleofthesignrelative tothe flightlinesofbirds andon theluminance (brightness) ofthesignasperceivedby thebirds. Thedirectional natureof LED lightingand the projectedviewingangle valuesof 30vertically and 60horizontally suggest that the viewingangleofthesignwill benarrow enoughtopreclude attracting migrating birdson clearnights, whenthey flyhigh enoughtobeoutsidethe viewingangleofthe sign. Shaders locatedaboveeachrowoflightswillprevent lightfromprojecting upward intothesky. Asa result, birdsflying more than30 abovethe center of the seelight fromthesignatall. However, migrating birdsare forcedtofly lowduringfoggy and rainyconditions, whichmaybringthem intotheviewing angleofthebillboard. 2Theproposedbillboardcouldproduceapeakvalueofapproximately641cd/ft of luminance LSI2006). However, in practice, the LEDbillboards will be operated sothat their peak 2luminancewillbeapproximately46cd/ft in the center of thebeamangle (R. Hatton, pers. 2comm.). Forcomparison, afull moon at itsbrightest pointproducesapproximately 232cd/ft LRC2006). Theproposed billboardwould beequippedwithalightsensorthatadjusts the brillianceofthebillboard inresponse to availableambient light, dimming theluminance as ambient lightlessens. Thepeakluminosityfor anLED billboard citedin the2006Light 5 H. T. HARVEY & ASSOCIATES Sciences Inc. reporttotheOutdoor Advertising AssociationofAmerica (LSI2006) andindicated aboveassumes thatthedisplayonthe billboard issolidwhite. Inpractice, thedisplays onthe plannedLEDbillboardwill containavariety ofcolors, whichwill substantially reduce the amountof luminance produced. Additionally, theLEDdisplay onthe billboardcan bechanged every8seconds from astatic image toastatic image, resultinginachanging lightsource. Colors andpatterns ofcoloronthe billboard wouldthus bechanging, andbirdsflyingnearthesignwouldnotperceive itasafixed, unchanging light, thetypeoflightthatappears tobemostattractivetobirds (JonesandFrancis 2003, Gauthreaux andBelser 2006). It ispossible thatsome birdsthatfindthemselves near thecenter ofthebeam angle maybe attractedtothesign. However, wedonotexpectthiseffect toresultin long-termconsequences, suchas increased bird-strikemortalities orsubstantial interference withbird movements because the signwill befocused onthehighway, noton airspace above thehighway. Thus, a relatively limited areaatlowaltitude aboveHighway 101 will bewithin the centerof the signsbeam angle. Becausethe area surroundingthe signisheavily urbanizedand contains nohabitatsofvalue to estuarine birds using theSanFranciscoBay habitatstotheeast, wedo notexpectlargenumbers ofbirds (especiallyspeciesof conservationconcern) tobeflyingina north-southdirection, and atlowaltitudes thatwouldbe within thebeam, closeenoughtothebillboardfordisorientationto occuratall. Thus, wedonotexpectbirdsmoving throughoraroundthe project areato be attracted tothesignforsuch alongduration thatbird-strike mortalityoccurs or substantial interference withbirdmovements occurs. Giventheconfiguration of birdhabitatsinthe vicinity ofthe site (whichdoes notlenditselfto directed birdflightstoward thesigns), thechanging imagesthatwillbedisplayed ontheLED billboard, the narrowviewingangle, andthe useofshaders toprevent lightfromprojecting upwardinto thesky, weexpect s impactson avian flightbehaviorto be lessthan significant. SUMMARY Basedontheinformation provided byClearChannelOutdoor concerningthe LEDbillboard, our review ofliterature concerninglightingeffectsonwildlife, our reconnaissance-levelsurveys of thesite, andourknowledge oflikelyavianflightlinesin thevicinityofthe project site, wedonot expecttheconstructionofanewLEDbillboard toresultinsignificant impacts onwildlife. Ifthe assumptions made inouranalysisconcerning theLED billboard characteristics (e.g., illuminance, luminance, orbeam angle) differ fromactual characteristics ofthebillboard, additional analysis maybe necessarytodetermine whether impactsare significant.

Per CEQA Guidelines (Section 15164), an addendum may be prepared if only minor technical changes or additions are necessary or none of the conditions calling for the preparation of a subsequent EIR or negative declaration have occurred. This document is organized in three sections as follows:  Introduction and Project Information. This section introduces the document and discusses the project description including location, setting, and specifics of the lead agency and contacts.  Environmental Analysis. This section analyzes the currently proposed billboard in comparison to the analysis in the IS/MND and discusses the CEQA environmental topics and checklist questions with the potential to be changed from that previously assessed.  Conclusions. This section summarizes the conclusions of the analysis and makes CEQA conclusions. BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE The 101 Terminal Court Clear Channel Billboard Project and Related Zoning Amendment project was analyzed in an Initial Study/Mitigated Negative Declaration (IS/MND) with State Clearinghouse Number 2013062062 circulated in June 2013 and adopted in August 2015. As assessed in the IS/MND, the zoning amendment allowed up to two additional digital billboards along the U.S. 101 corridor in South San Francisco in addition to the 101 Terminal Court billboard, as follows: “The location of proposed digital billboards would be constrained to the western side of the highway between Sister Cities Boulevard and the City’s southern boundary and otherwise following billboard locating restrictions (such as Caltrans rule of 500 feet between billboards, discussed in more detail under item 11, Regulatory Provisions).” While in the identified highway corridor, the current proposal is for a billboard on the eastern side of the highway. The purpose of this Addendum is to make minor changes to the project description to allow for the proposed billboard on the eastern side of U.S. 101 and demonstrate that a subsequent environmental document is not required per Section 15164 of the State CEQA Guidelines, as follows: 15164. Addendum to an EIR or Negative Declaration (a) The lead agency or responsible agency shall prepare an addendum to a previously certified EIR if some changes or additions are necessary but none of the conditions described in Section 15162 calling for preparation of a subsequent EIR have occurred. (b) An addendum to an adopted negative declaration may be prepared if only minor technical changes or additions are necessary or none of the conditions described in Section 15162 calling for the preparation of a subsequent EIR or negative declaration have occurred. (c) An addendum need not be circulated for public review but can be included in or attached to the final EIR or adopted negative declaration. (d) The decision making body shall consider the addendum with the final EIR or adopted negative declaration prior to making a decision on the project. Page 2 May 2018 Addendum to the 101 Terminal Court Clear Channel Billboard Project IS/MND (e) A brief explanation of the decision not to prepare a subsequent EIR pursuant to Section 15162 should be included in an addendum to an EIR, the lead agency's findings on the project, or elsewhere in the record. The explanation must be supported by substantial evidence. 15162. Subsequent EIRs and Negative Declarations (a) When an EIR has been certified or a Negative Declaration adopted for a project, no subsequent EIR shall be prepared for that project unless the lead agency determines, on the basis of substantial evidence in the light of the whole record, one or more of the following: (1) Substantial changes are proposed in the project which will require major revisions of the previous EIR or negative declaration due to the involvement of new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects; (2) Substantial changes occur with respect to the circumstances under which the project is undertaken which will require major revisions of the previous EIR or Negative Declaration due to the involvement of new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects; or (3) New information of substantial importance, which was not known and could not have been known with the exercise of reasonable diligence at the time the previous EIR was certified as complete or the Negative Declaration was adopted, shows any of the following: (A) The project will have one or more significant effects not discussed in the previous EIR or negative declaration; (B) Significant effects previously examined will be substantially more severe than shown in the previous EIR; (C) Mitigation measures or alternatives previously found not to be feasible would in fact be feasible, and would substantially reduce one or more significant effects of the project, but the project proponents decline to adopt the mitigation measure or alternative; or (D) Mitigation measures or alternatives which are considerably different from those analyzed in the previous EIR would substantially reduce one or more significant effects on the environment, but the project proponents decline to adopt the mitigation measure or alternative. (b) If changes to a project or its circumstances occur or new information becomes available after adoption of a negative declaration, the lead agency shall prepare a subsequent EIR if required under subdivision (a). Otherwise the lead agency shall determine whether to prepare a subsequent negative declaration, an addendum, or no further documentation. (c) Once a project has been approved, the lead agency's role in project approval is completed, unless further discretionary approval on that project is required. Information appearing after an approval does not require reopening of that approval. If after the project is approved, any of the conditions described in subdivision (a) occurs, a subsequent EIR or negative declaration shall only be prepared by the public agency which grants the next discretionary approval for the project, if any. In this situation no other responsible agency shall grant an approval for the project until the subsequent EIR has been certified or subsequent negative declaration adopted. (d) A subsequent EIR or subsequent negative declaration shall be given the same notice and public review as required under Section 15087 or Section 15072. A subsequent EIR or negative declaration shall state where the previous document is available and can be reviewed. The conclusions related to Sections 15164 and 15162 are discussed in the addendum section of this document. May 2018 Addendum to the 101 Terminal Court Clear Channel Billboard Project IS/MND Page 3 PROJECT INFORMATION 1. Project Title: 180 South Airport Boulevard Digital Billboard Proposal (“currently proposed billboard”), which is located within the highway corridor analyzed as part of the: 101 Terminal Court Clear Channel Billboard Project and Related Zoning Amendment 2. Lead Agency Contact: City of South San Francisco Billy Gross, Senior Planner Department of Economic and Community Development City of South San Francisco 315 Maple Avenue South San Francisco, CA 94083 650.877.8535 or billy.gross@ssf.net 3. Project Location: 180 South Airport Boulevard (APN 015-122-050) 4. Project Applicant's Name and Address: Bryan Scott Outfront Media, Inc. 1695 Eastshore Highway Berkeley, CA 94710 510.559.1139 5. General Plan Designation: Community Commercial 6. Zoning: Freeway Commercial (FC) 7. Site and Vicinity: The project location is shown in Figure 1. The currently proposed billboard is located in a recently redeveloped retail site including a three-tenant restaurant building (Dunkin Donuts, ToGo’s, and Popeye’s) and associated parking. The currently proposed billboard would be located in the northwestern corner of the site adjacent to U.S. 101 with the footing in a landscaped area and the sign also overhanging the trash enclosure and a corner of the parking area. An approximately 30-foot wide landscape strip is located between the retail site and the U.S. 101 highway to the west, consisting largely of shrubs and grasses. Farther west across the highway (at least 400 feet to the nearest building) is located a commercial complex with some light industrial, office, retail, and a hotel. South Airport Boulevard borders the site to the north and east and Colma Creek borders the site to the south. The site is surrounded by various commercial uses on the same side of the highway including largely light industrial with some retail, office, and hotel uses. The closest residential areas are located approximately 1,200 feet to the northwest. Other residential uses can be found approximately 2,600 feet to the north, 3,900 feet to the west, and 5,900 feet to the south. There are no residences in the vicinity to the east. Page 4 May 2018 Addendum to the 101 Terminal Court Clear Channel Billboard Project IS/MND 8. Project Description: Digital Billboard The current digital billboard proposal involves construction and operation of one new double-sided outdoor advertising digital LED billboard located in South San Francisco, California. The billboard is proposed to reach a maximum height of 65 feet. An “LED billboard” consists of a display surface that supports an image generated by rows of light emitting diodes (LED). The image on the billboard is static for a period of time, not less than eight seconds, before cycling to the next image. Operational details provided by the applicant include the following: Each LED display would be 48 feet wide by 14 feet tall mounted on a column so that the overall height is approximately 65 feet above grade. The two display faces will be oriented back-to-back such that the displays face the two directions of highway traffic. The design of the billboard is shown in Figures 2 and 3. Lighting levels on each face of the digital billboard will not exceed 0.3 foot candles over ambient levels, as measured using a foot candle meter at a 250’ distance according to the guidelines of the Outdoor Advertising Association of America (OAAA). Construction of the Billboard The currently proposed billboard would be connected to existing power lines in the project area. The foundation used for the proposed structure would be a drilled shaft with a poured concrete footing. Construction would proceed as described in the IS/MND with a few days of activity spread out over 1 to 2 weeks including (1) drilling of the foundation hole, (2) erection of the column and pouring of foundation concrete, and (3) removal of temporary support beams and assembly of sign faces. Other Billboard Removal per the Relocation Agreement In compliance with the Billboard Relocation Agreement, the currently proposed billboard would also involve removal of two existing billboards with a total of three faces in the general vicinity including a single-sided billboard at 1340 El Camino Real and a double-sided billboard at 21 San Mateo Avenue. Hand tools and small crane rigs would be used to remove the billboards. The top of the billboards would first be disassembled and removed, and then the poles would be cut at the ground. Only the above-grade portion of the billboard structures would be removed. Below surface foundations would remain in place. It would take approximately one to two working days to remove each of the existing billboard signs. Removal of the two billboard structures would take approximately one week. Materials from the removed billboard would be delivered to a recycling facility and/or appropriate landfill. Comparison to Project Description in the IS/MND The proposed billboard sign faces are the same size and the same LED technology including proposed operation and light levels and construction activities as assumed in the IS/MND. The height of the currently proposed billboard (65’) is within the range analyzed in the IS/MND (55’ to 70’). The proposed billboard is in the same general area as assumed in the IS/MND (U.S. 101 corridor between Sister Cities Boulevard and the City’s southern boundary) but on the eastern side of the highway instead of the western side. 9. Required Approvals: Approval of the current billboard proposal will require a General Plan and Zoning Ordinance Amendment (because these currently prohibit digital billboards to the east of U.S. 101), Relocation May 2018 Addendum to the 101 Terminal Court Clear Channel Billboard Project IS/MND Page 5 Agreement, and Design Review from the City of South San Francisco. Additionally, the following reviews and approvals would be required: Appropriate clearance through Caltrans is also required for highway-oriented signs. This may require a relocation agreement if the freeway segment is determined to be classified as a “landscaped freeway” (as discussed under Regulatory Provisions). Construction activities will require appropriate administrative permits. The City and applicant may also enter into a Development Agreement. 10. Regulatory Provisions: The following regulations are applicable to installation of billboards and compliance has been assumed in analysis of the currently proposed billboard. Federal The federal Highway Beautification Act of 1965 (23 U.S.C. 131) provides for control of outdoor advertising, including removal of certain types of signs, along the interstate highway system. The Act is enforced by the Federal Highway Administration (FHWA). As part of its enforcement effort, FHWA has entered into agreements regarding the Act with state departments of transportation. The agreements with California are described under the State provisions, below. State The California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) is involved in the control of “off-premise” displays along state highways. Such displays advertise products or services of businesses located on property other than the display. Caltrans does not regulate on-premise displays. (Caltrans Landscape Architecture Program, 2008) California has entered into two agreements with FHWA as part of the implementation of the Highway Beautification Act: one dated May 29, 1965, and a subsequent agreement dated February 15, 1968. The agreements generally provide that the State will control the construction of all outdoor advertising signs, displays, and devices within 660 feet of the interstate highway right-of-way. The agreements provide that such signs shall be erected only in commercial or industrial zones and are subject to the following restrictions:  No signs shall imitate or resemble any official traffic sign, signal, or device, nor shall signs obstruct or interfere with official signs;  No signs shall be erected on rocks or other natural features;  Signs shall be no larger than 25 feet in height and 60 feet in width, excluding border, trim, and supports;  Signs on the same side of the freeway must be separated by at least 500 feet; and  Signs shall not include flashing, intermittent, or moving lights, and shall not emit light that could obstruct or impair the vision of any driver. California regulates outdoor advertising in the Outdoor Advertising Act (Business and Professions Code, Sections 5200 et seq.) and the California Code of Regulations, Title 4, Division 6 (Sections 2240 et seq.), which incorporate the Federal Highway Beautification Act by reference. Caltrans enforces the law and regulations. Caltrans requires applicants for new outdoor lighting to demonstrate that the owner of the parcel consents to the placement of the sign, that the parcel on which the sign would be located is zoned commercial or industrial, and that local building permits are obtained and complied with. A digital billboard is identified as a “message center” in the statute, which is an Page 6 May 2018 Addendum to the 101 Terminal Court Clear Channel Billboard Project IS/MND advertising display where the message is changed more than once every two minutes, but no more than once every four seconds. (Business and Professions Code, Section 5216.4) In brief, off-premises changeable electronic variable message signs (CEVMS) adjacent to controlled routes shall incorporate standards pertaining to: 1. Duration of Message 2. Transition Time 3. Brightness 4. Spacing 5. Locations Most importantly as a result of FHWA recommendations, to ensure driver safety, no billboard manufacturers presently use moving displays or less than a 4-second duration between messages. Some freeways are classified as “landscaped freeways.” A landscaped freeway is defined as one that is now, or may in the future be, improved by the planting of lawns, trees, shrubs, flowers or other ornamental vegetation requiring reasonable maintenance on one or both sides of the freeway (Government Code §5216). Off-premise displays are not allowed along landscaped freeways except when approved as part of Relocation Agreements pursuant to §5412 of the Outdoor Advertising Act. It appears the currently proposed billboard is within a segment of U.S. 101 that is considered a classified landscaped freeway, though such a determination would be made during the approval process with Caltrans.1 The Outdoor Advertising Act contains a number of provisions relating to the construction and operation of billboards:  The sign must be constructed to withstand a wind pressure of 20 pounds per square feet of exposed surface (§5401);  No sign shall display any statements or words of an obscene, indecent or immoral character (§5402);  No sign shall display flashing, intermittent or moving light or lights (§5403(h));  Signs are restricted from areas within 300 feet of an intersection of highways or of highway and railroad right-of-ways, but a sign may be located at the point of interception, as long as a clear view is allowed for 300 feet, and no sign shall be installed that would prevent a traveler from obtaining a clear view of approaching vehicles for a distance of 500 feet along the highway (§5404); and  Message center signs may not include any illumination or message change that is in motion or appears to be in motion or that change or expose a message for less than four seconds. No message center sign may be located within 500 feet of an existing billboard, or 1,000 feet of another message center display, on the same side of the highway (§5405). Additional restrictions on outdoor signage are found in the California Vehicle Code. Section 21466.5 prohibits the placing of any light source “…of any color of such brilliance as to impair the vision of drivers upon the highway.” Specific standards for measuring light sources are provided. The restrictions may be enforced by Caltrans, the California Highway Patrol or local authorities. 1 California Department of Transportation, Classified “Landscape Freeways”, available at http://www.dot.ca.gov/design/lap/livability/classified-landscaped-fwys.html.

The difference from the IS/MND is in the location only. The following discussion is broken down by CEQA topic and focuses on assessment of the changed location. AESTHETICS Scenic Vistas Impact remains Less than Significant As under the IS/MND, the site and surrounding area is predominately developed with industrial/commercial uses and is not a scenic resource or vista. The site of the current billboard proposal is located on a flat area near the highway with no substantial views of the Bay from or across the site. Figures 4 and 5 are visual models showing the proposed billboard from views along U.S. 101. Sign Hill, which contains the prominent concrete “South San Francisco The Industrial City” sign on the hillside, was identified in the IS/MND as the only scenic vista with the potential to be impacted by billboards along U.S. 101, because they would have the potential to interrupt view of Sign Hill from motorists traveling along U.S. 101. As noted in the IS/MND, views toward Sign Hill, San Bruno Mountain and the Skyline Boulevard ridge from U.S. 101 are already partially and intermittently obscured by existing development, signage, and landscaping. Billboards along U.S. 101 would contribute to temporary obstruction of these views as a driver progresses toward and past the billboard, however, the IS/MND determined that the temporary and intermittent nature of the obstruction from the point of view of a moving vehicle, would be considered a less than significant impact. Because the current billboard proposal is on the eastern side of U.S. 101, and therefore not between highway motorists and Sign Hill, there is no potential to block these views from U.S. 101, but the same conclusion would hold true for roadways farther to the east. Scenic Highways and Visual Character Impact remains Less than Significant/No Impact There would be no substantial change to the assessment or conclusions related to scenic highways or visual character. The character of the currently proposed billboard site is commercial, just as were the potential locations assessed in the IS/MND and U.S. 101 is not a state scenic highway in the vicinity. Light and Glare Impact remains Less than Significant with Mitigation The IS/MND identified a potential impact related to the light levels of the proposed digital billboard and the potential to create substantial light and glare. The currently proposed billboard has sign faces of the same size as those previously analyzed, and the closest residential uses are over 1,000 feet away (the increase in illuminance is barely perceptible at 250 feet and negligible at 500 feet), and would comply with applicable regulation and guidelines. There would be no substantial change in the impact related to light and glare under the currently proposed billboard. The IS/MND included Mitigation Measure Visual-1, requiring demonstration of compliance with light levels consistent with OAAA Guidelines. This mitigation measure would remain applicable to the proposed billboard and would reduce the impact to less than significant. Page 14 May 2018 Addendum to the 101 Terminal Court Clear Channel Billboard Project IS/MND Overall Aesthetics Therefore, given the substantial evidence above, the current billboard proposal would result in no substantial changes to the IS/MND Aesthetics analysis or conclusions and impacts would remain unchanged (no impact/less than significant or reduced to that level through mitigation). AGRICULTURE AND FORESTRY RESOURCES Impacts remain No Impact As under the IS/MND, the currently proposed billboard is located in a developed urban area adjacent to a highway and no part of the site is zoned for or currently being used for agricultural or forestry purposes or is subject to the Williamson Act. Therefore, the current billboard proposal would result in no substantial changes to the IS/MND Agricultural and Forestry Resources analysis or conclusions and impacts would remain unchanged (no impact) AIR QUALITY Impacts remain Less than Significant/Less than Significant with Mitigation The currently proposed billboard has the same size sign faces and would have generally the same construction activities and emissions (mostly from energy use) as the billboard analyzed under the IS/MND. With changes only to the location, and not changes that would affect the emissions, the current billboard proposal would result in no changes to the IS/MND Air Quality analysis or conclusions and all impacts except the one below would remain less than significant. The IS/MND identified a potentially-significant impact related to construction-period emissions and fugitive dust and included Mitigation Measure Air-1, requiring standard construction management practices to reduce the impact to less than significant. This impact and conclusion would remain applicable to the currently proposed billboard. Therefore, given the substantial evidence above, the current billboard proposal would result in no substantial changes to the IS/MND Aesthetics analysis or conclusions and impacts would remain unchanged (less than significant or reduced to that level through mitigation). BIOLOGICAL RESOURCES Impacts remain Less than Significant/No Impact As under the IS/MND, the currently proposed billboard is located in a developed urban area, and the site and surroundings do not support sensitive species that might be significantly affected by construction of or illuminance from operation of the proposed LED billboard. That being said, avian flight behavior is known to be potentially affected by artificial illuminance. However, per the IS/MND, the area is heavily urbanized and large numbers of birds are not expected to be flying within the beam of light from the billboard. Additionally, because of the limited upwards beam angle constrained by shaders above each LED row, and the changing graphics, which are not the type of unchanging light most attractive to birds, birds moving through or around the site would not likely be attracted to the billboard to the extent that bird-strike mortality or substantial interference with bird movements occurs. The impact on special-status species, sensitive habitats, and wildlife corridors would therefore remain less than significant. No local policies, ordinances, or Habitat Conservation Plans are directly applicable to this site and the no impact conclusion would remain unchanged. Therefore, given the substantial evidence above, the current billboard proposal would result in no substantial changes to the IS/MND Biological Resources analysis or conclusions and impacts would remain unchanged (no impact/less than significant).

The currently proposed billboard would have generally the same construction activities as the billboard analyzed under the IS/MND. The current billboard proposal is located on a site that was recently redeveloped, and would result in no changes to the IS/MND Cultural Resources analysis or conclusions. The IS/MND identified discovery/disturbance of currently unknown cultural resources as a potentially- significant impact related to cultural resources and included Mitigation Measure Cultural-1, requiring a cultural monitoring and mitigation plan to be implemented during drilling that would reduce the impact to less than significant. This mitigation measure would remain applicable to the currently proposed billboard. Therefore, given the substantial evidence above, the current billboard proposal would result in no substantial changes to the IS/MND Cultural Resources analysis or conclusions and impacts would remain unchanged (less than significant or reduced to that level through mitigation). GEOLOGY AND SOILS Impacts remain Less than Significant/No Impact As under the IS/MND, the currently proposed billboard requires building permits and would be constructed to the current building code standards, including consideration of geologic and seismic conditions. There are no active earthquake faults known to pass through the vicinity, and given the relatively flat topography of the site, the possibility of landslides is considered unlikely. The applicant must obtain coverage under the General Construction Activity Storm Water Permit (General Construction Permit) issued by the State Water Resources Control Board, which will address any erosion potential from ground disturbance. There would be no substantial risks related to expansive or unstable soils. The impact related to seismic and soil hazards would remain less than significant. The conclusion of no impact related to the use of septic tanks would remain unchanged as no septic takes are proposed. Therefore, given the substantial evidence above, the current billboard proposal would result in no substantial changes to the IS/MND Geology and Soils analysis or conclusions and impacts would remain unchanged (no impact/less than significant). GREENHOUSE GAS EMISSIONS Impacts remain Less than Significant/No Impact The currently proposed billboard has the same size sign faces and would have generally the same construction activities and emissions (mostly from energy use) as analyzed under the IS/MND. With changes only to the location, there would be no changes that would affect the Greenhouse Gas Emissions or associated no impact/less than significant impacts identified in the IS/MND. Therefore, given the substantial evidence above, the current billboard proposal would result in no substantial changes to the IS/MND Greenhouse Gas Emissions analysis or conclusions and impacts would remain unchanged (no impact/less than significant). HAZARDS AND HAZARDOUS MATERIALS Impacts remain No Impact/Less than Significant/Less than Significant with Mitigation As under the IS/MND, the currently proposed billboard is located in a developed urban area adjacent to a highway. The currently proposed billboard would have generally the same construction and operational activities as the billboard analyzed under the IS/MND. The current billboard proposal would not create hazardous emissions/materials near a school, would not result in airport hazards, would not impact Page 18 May 2018 Addendum to the 101 Terminal Court Clear Channel Billboard Project IS/MND emergency response, and is not located in a wildland fire hazard area and impacts related to these topics would remain unchanged (less than significant/no impact). The IS/MND identified a potentially-significant impact related to unexplored potential for hazardous materials and included Mitigation Measure Haz-1 (requiring a Phase I environmental site assessment report, and a Phase II report if warranted by the Phase I report) and Mitigation Measure Haz-2 (requiring the operator to follow applicable regulations regarding proper disposal and/or recycling of billboard components) to reduce the impact to less than significant. This mitigation measure would remain applicable to the currently proposed billboard. Therefore, given the substantial evidence above, the current billboard proposal would result in no substantial changes to the IS/MND Hazards and Hazardous Materials analysis or conclusions and impacts would remain unchanged (no impact/less than significant or reduced to that level through mitigation). HYDROLOGY AND WATER QUALITY Impacts remain Less than Significant/No Impact The currently proposed billboard would have generally the same construction and operational activities as the billboard analyzed under the IS/MND. As under the IS/MND, the currently proposed billboard would not use water during operation or pose a substantial risk to water quality during construction, would not substantially change site drainage, and is not located in an area subject to flooding or inundation. Therefore, given the substantial evidence above, the current billboard proposal would result in no substantial changes to the IS/MND Hydrology and Water Quality analysis or conclusions and impacts would remain unchanged (less than significant/no impact). LAND USE AND PLANNING Impacts remain Less than Significant/No Impact As under the IS/MND, the currently proposed billboard is located in a developed urban area adjacent to a highway. Because the billboard would not involve any physical changes that would divide the established community and because the site is not subject to a conservation plan, the conclusion of no impact related to these items would remain unchanged. Digital billboards on the east side of U.S. 101 are not currently allowed under the South San Francisco General Plan and Zoning Code. Amendments of the General Plan and Zoning Code as proposed with the currently proposed billboard would allow location of digital billboards on the east side of U.S. 101 if otherwise allowed. Assuming approval of the General Plan and Zoning Code amendments, impacts related to land use plan conflicts would remain less than significant. Therefore, given the substantial evidence above, the current billboard proposal would result in no substantial changes to the IS/MND Land Use and Planning analysis or conclusions and impacts would remain unchanged (no impact/less than significant). MINERAL RESOURCES Impacts remain No Impact As under the IS/MND, the currently proposed billboard is located in a developed urban area and the site contains no known mineral resources and has not been delineated as a locally important mineral recovery site on any land use plan. There would be no impact to mineral resources as a result of the currently proposed billboard. Therefore, given the substantial evidence above, the current billboard proposal would result in no substantial changes to the IS/MND Mineral Resources analysis or conclusions and impacts would remain unchanged (no impact). May 2018 Addendum to the 101 Terminal Court Clear Channel Billboard Project IS/MND Page 19 NOISE Impacts remain Less than Significant/No Impact As under the IS/MND, the currently proposed billboard is located in a developed urban area adjacent to a highway and would have generally the same construction and operational activities as the billboard analyzed under the IS/MND. The proposed billboard would not be a source of operational noise or vibration and construction activities will comply with noise regulations. Therefore, given the substantial evidence above, the current billboard proposal would result in no substantial changes to the IS/MND Noise analysis or conclusions and impacts would remain unchanged from the IS/MND (no impact/less than significant). POPULATION AND HOUSING Impacts remain No Impact As under the IS/MND, a billboard would not induce population growth or displace housing or people and would have no impact related to population and housing. Therefore, given the substantial evidence above, the current billboard proposal would result in no substantial changes to the IS/MND Population and Housing analysis or conclusions and impacts would remain unchanged (no impact). PUBLIC SERVICES Impacts remain No Impact As under the IS/MND, a billboard would not increase the demand for public services and would have no impact related to public services. Therefore, given the substantial evidence above, the current billboard proposal would result in no substantial changes to the IS/MND Public Services analysis or conclusions and impacts would remain unchanged (no impact). RECREATION Impacts remain No Impact As under the IS/MND, a billboard would not construct or increase the use of recreational facilities and would have no impact related to recreation. Therefore, given the substantial evidence above, the current billboard proposal would result in no substantial changes to the IS/MND Recreation analysis or conclusions and impacts would remain unchanged (no impact). TRANSPORTATION Impacts remain No Impact/Less than Significant with Mitigation As under the IS/MND, operation of a billboard would not generate vehicle trips or otherwise change traffic patterns or access. With changes only to the location, the current billboard proposal would result in no changes to the IS/MND Transportation analysis or conclusions and, except as discussed below, would have no impact related to transportation. The IS/MND identified a potentially-significant impact related to increase of traffic hazards and included Mitigation Measure Traf-1 (requiring submission of an annual report identifying incidents or facts that relate to specific digital billboards and confirming compliance with traffic and safety regulations) and Mitigation Measure Traf-2 (requiring compliance with operational safety measures) to reduce the Page 20 May 2018 Addendum to the 101 Terminal Court Clear Channel Billboard Project IS/MND impact to less than significant. This mitigation measure would remain applicable to the currently proposed billboard. Therefore, given the substantial evidence above, the current billboard proposal would result in no substantial changes to the IS/MND Transportation analysis or conclusions and impacts would remain unchanged (no impact/less than significant with mitigation). UTILITIES AND SERVICE SYSTEMS Impacts remain No Impact The currently proposed billboard would have generally the same construction and operational activities, including energy use, as the billboard analyzed under the IS/MND. With changes only to the location, and no changes that would affect utilities, service systems, or energy, the current billboard proposal would have no impact related to utilities and service systems. Therefore, given the substantial evidence above, the current billboard proposal would result in no substantial changes to the IS/MND Utilities and Service Systems analysis or conclusions (no impact). CONCLUSIONS Given the substantial evidence presented in this document, the currently proposed billboard would not require subsequent analysis per CEQA Guidelines Section 15162, as confirmed by the following statements: (1) The current billboard proposal would not result in new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects; (2) There are no changes in circumstances that would result in the involvement of new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects; or (3) There is no new information resulting in a new significant effect not discussed in new significant environmental effects, a substantial increase in the severity of previously identified significant effects, or a change in the feasibility (or acceptance) of mitigation measures. While the currently proposed billboard is in a different location than assumed under the adopted IS/MND, the change in location would be considered a minor technical change per CEQA Guidelines Section 15164. Therefore, this addendum, in combination with the adopted IS/MND, is the appropriate CEQA document for the currently proposed billboard. No additional CEQA analysis or documentation is required to make a decision on the currently proposed billboard. All mitigation measures identified in the IS/MND would remain applicable to the currently proposed billboard. City of South San Francisco Legislation Text P.O. Box 711 (City Hall, 400 Grand Avenue) South San Francisco, CA File #:18-576 Agenda Date:7/25/2018 Version:1 Item #:2b.

WHEREAS,the refinements,clarifications,and/or corrections to the Zoning Ordinance as they relate to signage are minor in nature,the adoption of which would not result in any new significant environmental effects or a substantial increase in the severity of any previously identified effects beyond those disclosed and analyzed in the Zoning Ordinance IS/ND or IS/MND prepared and circulated for the siting of billboards along U.S.Highway 101,nor do the refinements,clarifications,and/or corrections constitute a change in the project or change in circumstances that would require additional environmental review. WHEREAS,the City Council reviewed and carefully considered the information in the 2015 IS/MND and the 2018 Addendum,and by separate resolution,finds that the 2018 Addendum is the appropriate environmental document; and, NOW,THEREFORE,BE IT ORDAINED that based on the entirety of the Record before it,as described below, the City Council of the City of South San Francisco does hereby ORDAIN as follows: SECTION I.FINDINGS. Based on the entirety of the record as described above,the City Council for the City of South San Francisco hereby makes the following findings: A.General Findings. 1.The foregoing recitals are true and correct and made a part of this Ordinance. 2.The Record for these proceedings,and upon which this Ordinance is based,includes without limitation, Federal and State law;the California Environmental Quality Act (Public Resources Code §§21000,et seq. (“CEQA”))and the CEQA Guidelines (14 California Code of Regulations §15000,et seq.);the South San Francisco 1999 General Plan and General Plan Environmental Impact Report,including the 2001 updates to the General Plan and 2001 Supplemental Environmental Impact Report;the South San Francisco Municipal Code;the 2015 Initial Study /Mitigated Negative Declaration prepared for the siting of billboards along the west side of U.S.Highway 101 (“101 Terminal Court Clear Channel Billboard Project”)and Related Zoning Amendment,including all written comments received;the 2018 Addendum to Initial Study / Mitigated Negative Declaration for the 101 Terminal Court Clear Channel Billboard Project;all reports, minutes,and public testimony submitted as part of the Planning Commission's duly noticed meeting on June 7,2018;all reports,minutes,and public testimony submitted as part of the City Council's duly noticed meeting on July 25,2018;and any other evidence (within the meaning of Public Resources Code §21080(e) and §21082.2). 3.The documents and other material constituting the record for these proceedings are located at the Planning Division for the City of South San Francisco,315 Maple Avenue,South San Francisco,CA 94080, and in the custody of the Planning Manager. B.Zoning Amendment Findings 1.The proposed zoning amendments are consistent with the adopted General Plan because they establish regulations that balance the need of different users for adequate identification,communication and advertising with the objectives of protecting the public and promoting a visually attractive community.By allowing the installation of digital billboards subject to a relocation agreement and sign permit,the proposed zoning amendments will assist the City in removing existing static billboards from unwanted City of South San Francisco Printed on 7/19/2018Page 2 of 6 powered by Legistar™ File #:18-576 Agenda Date:7/25/2018 Version:1 Item #:2b. proposed zoning amendments will assist the City in removing existing static billboards from unwanted locations and replacing with digital signage that provide more timely messaging,strengthen and promote economic development objectives and actively market South San Francisco.The proposed text amendments related to the regulation of digital billboards will remain consistent with the City’s General Plan vision for community and economic development by promoting economic development within the City,expanding the communication of community services,and providing an additional source of revenue for the City.The proposed text amendments will not impede achievement of any of the goals,policies,or land use designations established in the General Plan and is consistent with the General Plan,including the East of 101 Area Plan (as proposed for amendment). 2.The proposed zoning amendments related to digital billboards would only affect properties in non- residential districts east of and adjacent to U.S.Highway 101 and have been designed to be appropriate for surrounding uses.The existing standards ensure that proposed projects are suitable in terms of architectural compatibility,consistency with area character,legibility,readability,finish and visibility,and other considerations deemed relevant by the Planning Commission and City Council because the performance standards for digital billboards,including operational limitations related to static messages,maximum lighting levels,a requirement for a light sensing device that adjusts the sign brightness as ambient light conditions change,and location limitations,are included in the existing standards and would be applied to the proposed Project,as well as to any future digital billboard projects,to minimize visual impacts.The suitability for the potential digital billboard sites,to the extent foreseeable,was analyzed in the environmental document prepared for the Project. 3.The proposed zoning amendments allow digital billboards in a discrete area adjacent to U.S.Highway 101 in non-residential districts.The use of digital billboards in this area is consistent and harmonious with surrounding urban uses.The proposed zoning amendments related to digital billboards would not result in any change of zoning districts and therefore would not be detrimental to the use of land in any adjacent zone.

B.East of 101 Area Plan Amendment 1.The Area Plan,as proposed for amendment,implements and is consistent with the General Plan.The 1999 General Plan includes policies encouraging the City to consider opportunities for enhancement of financing tools in order to fund various economic development initiatives and to actively market South San Francisco.The Project would amend the East of 101 Area Plan to allow for the installation of new digital off-site billboards in the U.S.Highway 101 corridor subject to the removal of existing static billboards in other areas of the City,and includes provisions for additional revenue for a period of 30 years,subject to the terms of the Project entitlements including the proposed Development Agreement and Relocation Agreement.Further,approval of the Project,including the proposed Development Agreement and Relocation Agreement,will not impede achievement of,and is consistent with,applicable General Plan policies. 2.The Area Plan,as proposed for amendment,implements and is consistent with other provisions of the East of 101 Area Plan,which the General Plan identifies as the guide for detailed implementation of General Plan policies.Policy LU-1 states that developments should be evaluated based on their merits and the net benefits they will provide to the East of 101 Area and the City as a whole.The Project requires an amendment to the East of 101 Area Plan to allow for the installation of new digital off-site billboards in the U.S.Highway 101 corridor subject to the removal of existing static billboards in other areas of the City,and includes provisions for additional revenue to the City for a period of 30 years,subject to the terms of the Project entitlements including the proposed Development Agreement and Relocation Agreement.In City of South San Francisco Printed on 7/19/2018Page 2 of 4 powered by Legistar™ File #:18-577 Agenda Date:7/25/2018 Version:1 Item #:2c. addition, the proposed Project is consistent with the Design Policies of the East of 101 Area Plan. 3.The Area Plan,as proposed for amendment,will not be detrimental to the public interest,health,safety, convenience,or welfare of the City,because the amendments would allow for new off-site digital commercial billboards only on parcels immediately adjacent to Highway 101,only upon approval of a relocation agreement,and would not otherwise revise the prohibition on new static billboards in the East of 101 area.Any revisions to existing billboard signage would continue to be required to be developed in conformance with the applicable standards included in Chapter 20.110 (Employment Districts)and Chapter 20.360 (Signs). 4.The Area Plan,as proposed for amendment,is physically suitable for the type and intensity of the land use being proposed,because the amendments would allow for new off-site digital commercial billboards only on parcels immediately adjacent to Highway 101,upon approval of a relocation agreement.The presence of a billboard on such parcels would not preclude the allowance of land uses permitted within any of the respective zoning districts. C.Relocation Agreement 1.Approval and execution of the Relocation Agreement will accomplish the purposes of Chapter 20.360 better than the status quo of existing billboards that currently exist. 2.The Digital Billboard is located within a property located at 180 South Airport Boulevard (APN 015- 122-050),which is within the Freeway Commercial zoning district,which is a non-residential district,and is immediately adjacent to U.S. Highway 101. 3.The Applicant and City have negotiated a Development Agreement to allow the installation of the Digital Billboard with two billboard faces at the Property,and the removal of the existing double-faced billboard at 21 San Mateo Avenue and the existing single-face billboard at 1340 El Camino Real. 4.Installation of the Digital Billboard will advance adopted policies contained in the General Plan and East of 101 Area Plan,including maximizing the City’s financing tools and actively marketing South San Francisco. 5.The Digital Billboard is operated in accordance with the operating standards set forth in Section 20.360.006(Q),because the project has been evaluated against,and found to be consistent with,each of the ten operating standards.

B. CITY agrees that it will reasonably assist OUTFRONT in connection with any APPROVALS required from the CITY and Caltrans, and any other governmental agencies, but OUTFRONT understands and agrees that the obligation and burden of obtaining said APPROVALS is solely an obligation and burden of OUTFRONT. C. Provided that OUTFRONT submits all necessary documentation satisfactory to CITY, CITY will use reasonable efforts to timely issue all APPROVALS necessary for OTAD\54217\1278186.7 Page 7 of 19 OUTFRONT’s timely compliance with this AGREEMENT including, but not limited to, construction of the DIGITAL BILLBOARD and permanent removal of the REMOVED BILLBOARDS.

OUTFRONT shall pay, up to eighty thousand dollars ($80,000), for all reasonable CITY costs for CITY staff and consultants incurred to process CITY APPROVALS. OUTFRONT has made an initial payment of twenty-five thousand, seven hundred and fifty dollars ($25,750), and shall pay future costs upon receipt of invoice, subject to the foregoing cap, i.e. up to fifty-four thousand, two hundred and fifty dollars ($54,250). Any delay caused by the CITY in its issuance of APPROVALS shall not result in a default or failure of performance by OUTFRONT for the period of time delay caused by CITY. OUTFRONT’s obligations to pay for customary permit fees pursuant to Section 7(a) of the Development Agreement and its obligations to pay legal fees and costs pursuant to Sections 9, 15 and 20 of the Development Agreement are not included in the calculation of the eighty thousand dollar ($80,000) cap discussed in this section. F. As long as OUTFRONT operates a DIGITAL DISPLAY on the DIGITAL BILLBOARD, OUTFRONT shall agree to use one (1) guaranteed spot in a standard rotation on one Digital Display for four (4) “blocks” of time, during each calendar year following the COMMENCEMENT DATE to display CITY-sponsored event announcements and non-commercial public service announcements to promote the civic interests of the CITY (“CITY MESSAGES”) with no charge for advertising space. Each “block” will consist of one (1) advertising spot of no greater than eight (8) seconds in the standard rotation of eight (8) spots on one Digital Display, where such CITY MESSAGES shall be so displayed for two (2) weeks in duration (collectively, the “Two- Week Advertising Spot”). The City shall be limited to one (1) Two-Week Advertising Spot for each calendar quarter. The blocks of time are subject to the following conditions and parameters: (i) The CITY shall provide the requested time periods to OUTFRONT for the following year prior to November 1 of the preceding year. CITY shall be responsible for providing OUTFRONT with its CITY MESSAGES and for any costs associated with providing OUTFRONT associated artwork in acceptable format, and will be subject to OUTFRONT’s standard advertising copy rejection and removal policies which allow OUTFRONT the right in its sole discretion to approve or disapprove copy and remove copy once posted or displayed. If OUTFRONT rejects or removes CITY MESSAGES, OUTFRONT will give CITY a reasonable opportunity to revise CITY MESSAGES and resubmit them to OUTFRONT in order to ensure CITY is granted its four (4) blocks of time per calendar year. (ii) The CITY shall not charge for, or exchange goods or services for, any sign space granted on the DIGITAL DISPLAYS. OTAD\54217\1278186.7 Page 8 of 19 (iii) The CITY must submit “camera ready art” utilizing formats and protocols acceptable to OUTFRONT from time to time or pay production costs. All copy shall be submitted to OUTFRONT at least ten (10) business days in advance. (iv) If at any time in the future OUTFRONT removes the DIGITAL DISPLAY(s) from the sign structure or OUTFRONT is unable to operate the DIGITAL DISPLAY(s), for any reason, the advertising spot commitments in this section shall be automatically terminated and rendered null and void, and OUTFRONT shall be under no obligation whatsoever to provide the City with any type of free advertising space. However, at any time OUTFRONT operates the Digital Display(s) with electronic/digital technology, the advertising spot commitment shall remain in place. (v) It is expressly understood and agreed that CITY MESSAGES may not include any names, logos or marks associated with any third party non-governmental person or entity or any products or any services associated with any third party non-governmental person or entity. (vi) Any unused space will be forfeited and shall not roll over. In the event CITY does not provide OUTFRONT with a space request for the following year by November 1 of the prior year, or in the event the CITY fails to use any space, nothing herein shall be deemed to prevent or prohibit OUTFRONT from using such spots for promoting OUTFRONT’S business, promoting charitable enterprises, or from actively seeking advertisers for unsold or unused spots, even though that may result in the shortening of advertising time that would otherwise have been available to the CITY under this AGREEMENT. (vii) In addition to the guaranteed space described above, OUTFRONT also agrees to provide the CITY with one spot in a standard eight spot rotation during periods other than the two week periods when the CITY has a guaranteed spot, on a space available basis and provided that such spots may be pre-empted by OUTFRONT for any reason, including without limitation the use of such spots for promoting OUTFRONT’S business, promoting charitable enterprises, or from actively seeking advertisers for such spots. (viii) Notwithstanding anything else in this AGREEMENT, the CITY shall and hereby does agree to indemnify, defend and hold harmless OUTFRONT for, from and against, any claims, costs (including, but not limited to, court costs and reasonable attorneys’ fees), losses, actions or liabilities arising from or in connection with any third party allegation concerning any CITY MESSAGE, including but not limited to a claim that any portion of any CITY MESSAGE infringes or violates the rights, including, but not limited to, copyright, trademark, trade secret or any similar right, of any third party. This indemnity shall not include an obligation for CITY to be responsible for compensating OUTFRONT for any lost profits or consequential damages or any similar remedy that Outfront may assert against any third party. Notwithstanding anything else in this AGREEMENT, this Section OTAD\54217\1278186.7 Page 9 of 19 7(F)(viii) shall survive any termination or expiration of this AGREEMENT. G. OUTFRONT shall pay customary permit fees, fees imposed pursuant to the DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT and any applicable gross receipts tax, in the event the CITY enacts such a tax. No additional fees, mitigations, conditions, exactions, dedications, fees or otherwise, whether adopted through the exercise of police power, the taxing power or any other authority, shall be imposed by CITY with respect to the construction, operation, repair, or maintenance of the DIGITAL BILLBOARD except as provided for herein. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, no fee or permit shall be required for any change of copy in connection with the DIGITAL BILLBOARD. H. If any person or entity not a party to this AGREEMENT initiates any legal or equitable action or proceeding to challenge the validity of any provision of this AGREEMENT or the validity or implementation of the permits and approvals for the DIGITAL BILLBOARD or of the ADDENDUM TO THE NEGATIVE DECLARATION, the Parties shall promptly notify the other Party of such claim and each party shall cooperate with the efforts of OUTFRONT to defend such action or proceeding. OUTFRONT agrees to pay all reasonable costs and expenses, including reasonable legal costs and reasonable attorney’s fees incurred in connection therewith, as set forth in more detail in Section 11 of this AGREEMENT. CITY will not voluntarily assist the opposing party in any such claim or take any position adverse to OUTFRONT in connection with such claim. In the event that any person or entity not a party to this AGREEMENT initiates any legal or equitable action or proceeding to challenge the validity of any provision of this AGREEMENT, during the pendency of such action, OUTFRONT shall have the option to return any DIGITAL DISPLAY to a conventional non-digital display and CITY shall not be entitled to claim any lost revenues or damages as a result of such election by OUTFRONT. SECTION 8. RELATIONSHIP OF PARTIES. Under no circumstances shall this AGREEMENT be construed as one of agency, partnership, joint venture or employment between OUTFRONT and the CITY. Each party acknowledges and agrees that it neither has, nor will it give the appearance or impression of having, any legal authority to bind or commit the other Party in any way, notwithstanding that this AGREEMENT is binding on and between the Parties. SECTION 9. INSURANCE REQUIREMENTS. A. General Liability Insurance. During the term of this AGREEMENT, OUTFRONT shall maintain commercial general liability insurance with coverage at least as broad as Insurance Services Office form CG 00 01, in an amount not less than Five Million Dollars ($5,000,000) per occurrence for bodily injury, personal injury, and property damage, including without limitation, blanket contractual liability. If a general aggregate limit applies, either the general aggregate limit shall apply separately to this project/location or the general aggregate limit shall be twice the required occurrence limit. The general liability policy so maintained by OUTFRONT shall be primary and OTAD\54217\1278186.7 Page 10 of 19 non-contributory, and be endorsed using Insurance Services Office form CG 20 10 to provide that City and its officers, officials, employees, and agents shall be additional insureds under such policy.

During the term of this Agreement, OUTFRONT shall maintain Workers’ Compensation insurance for all of OUTFRONT’s employees working on the DIGITAL BILLBOARD PROJECT site. In addition, OUTFRONT shall require each contractor and subcontractor engaged by OUTFRONT for work on the DIGITAL BILLBOARD PROJECT site to provide Workers’ Compensation insurance for its respective employees working at the DIGITAL BILLBOARD PROJECT site. C. Evidence of Insurance. Prior to City Council approval of this AGREEMENT, OUTFRONT shall furnish the CITY satisfactory evidence of the insurance required in Sections 9(a) and 8(b) and evidence that the carrier will endeavor to give the CITY thirty (30) days’ (ten (10) days for non-payment of premium) prior written notice in the event coverage is substantially changed, canceled, or non-renewed. Further, an endorsement must be attached to all policies stating that coverage is primary insurance with respect to the CITY and its officers, officials, employees and volunteers, and that no insurance or self-insurance maintained by the CITY shall be called upon to contribute to a loss under the coverage with respect to the liabilities assumed by OUTFRONT under this AGREEMENT: 1. During the term of this AGREEMENT, in the event of a reduction (below the limits required in this AGREEMENT) or cancellation in coverage, OUTFRONT shall, prior to such reduction or cancellation, provide at least ten (10) days prior written notice to the CITY, regardless of any notification by the applicable insurer. If the CITY discovers that the policies have been cancelled or reduced below the limits required in this Agreement and that neither the insurer nor OUTFRONT has provided prior notice to the CITY as required under this AGREEMENT, said failure shall constitute a material breach of this AGREEMENT. 2. During the term of this AGREEMENT, in the event of a reduction (below the limits required by this AGREEMENT) or cancellation in coverage, OUTFRONT shall have five (5) days in which to provide evidence of the required coverage being reinstated or replaced, during which time no persons shall enter the PROPERTY to construct improvements thereon, including construction activities related to the landscaping and common improvements. 3. If OUTFRONT fails to obtain reinstated or replacement coverage within five (5) days as required under the preceding subparagraph, the CITY may obtain, but is not required to obtain, substitute coverage and charge OUTFRONT the cost of such coverage plus an administrative fee equal to ten percent (10%) of the premium for said coverage. SECTION 10. INDEMNIFICATION AND HOLD HARMLESS. OTAD\54217\1278186.7 Page 11 of 19 A. OUTFRONT agrees to indemnify, defend, and hold harmless the CITY and its elected and appointed councils, boards, commissions, officers, agents, employees and representatives (collectively, the “CITY INDEMNITEES”) from any and all claims, costs (including reasonable legal fees and costs) and liability for any personal injury, death or property damage (collectively, “CLAIMS”) which arise directly or indirectly as a result of any actions or inactions by OUTFRONT, or any actions or inactions of OUTFRONT ’s contractors, subcontractors, agents or employees, in connection with the construction, improvement, operation or maintenance of the DIGITAL BILLBOARD, provided that OUTFRONT shall have no indemnification obligation with respect to any such CLAIMS (i) to the extent such CLAIMS are solely attributable to the negligence or willful misconduct of any CITY INDEMNITEES, or (ii) to the extent arising out of or in connection with the maintenance, use or condition of any public improvement after the time it has been dedicated to and accepted by the CITY or another public entity (except as otherwise provided in an improvement agreement or maintenance bond, if applicable). OUTFRONT shall defend such CLAIMS with joint counsel selected by OUTFRONT but subject to the approval of the CITY, where such approval shall not be reasonably withheld. B. The Parties’ obligations under this Section 10 shall survive the expiration or earlier termination of this AGREEMENT and shall be independent of any other applicable indemnity agreements. SECTION 11.

This AGREEMENT may be executed in counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original but all of which shall constitute a single instrument. J. In the event either Party is in default of any provision hereof, the non-defaulting Party, as a condition precedent to the exercise of its remedies, shall be required to give the defaulting Party written notice of the same pursuant to this AGREEMENT. Unless otherwise specified herein, the defaulting Party shall have thirty (30) calendar days from the receipt of such notice to cure the default, or, if the default cannot be cured within thirty (30) calendar days, to commence and diligently pursue a cure. If the defaulting Party timely cures the default, then the default shall be deemed waived and this AGREEMENT shall continue in full force and effect. If OUTFRONT is in default of this AGREEMENT and/or is in default of any payment provision under the DEVELOPMENT AGREEMENT with respect to the DIGITAL BILLBOARD PROJECT and does not timely cure such payment default, the CITY shall be entitled to pursue all of its remedies available at law or equity, including, but not limited to, termination of this AGREEMENT and specific performance, and in the event the CITY elects to terminate this AGREEMENT, OUTFRONT shall remove the above- ground portions of the DIGITAL BILLBOARD as provided below. In the event that either Party elects to terminate this AGREEMENT due to default of the other Party, then OUTFRONT agrees that it shall remove the above-ground portions of the DIGITAL BILLBOARD within ninety (90) days from the date of termination, unless OUTFRONT and CITY have entered into a subsequent written agreement, upon terms mutually acceptable to both Parties, that allows the DIGITAL BILLBOARD to remain. K.

Upon holding a public hearing to receive public comment and then finding that undergrounding overhead utilities along Mission Road will be in the public interest,the City Council may introduce an ordinance to establish the Mission Road District. Background In accordance with California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC)Rule 20A,PG&E annually allocates approximately $202,656 (varies slightly by year)of work credits to the City to cover PG&E’s costs for undergrounding its overhead utilities.The City has a current balance of $6,780,977.Additionally,the City can borrow up to five years’worth of future allocations,giving the City access to about $7,794,257 in PG&E credits.Under CPUC Rule 32,the telecommunications companies do not issue credits,but must nonetheless pay their share of costs for qualified Rule 20A projects. In 2016,the City established the Spruce District at an estimated commitment of $5,365,000 of its Rule 20A work credits.In 2017,the City established the Antoinette District at an estimated commitment of another $2,325,000 credits.The City directed PG&E to give the Antoinette District priority over the Spruce District to keep its schedule coordinated with the Community and Civic Center Campus project. On May 9,2018,the City Council held a community meeting and study session concerning a proposal to establish a third District with the City,along Mission Road.A second community meeting was held on this subject on June 7,2018.On June 13,2018,the City Council opened a public hearing,but then continued it to July 25,2018 to allow the subject to be presented on July 2,2018 at the Sunshine Gardens Neighborhood Meeting.Staff sent notice to property owners within the proposed district thirty days before the June 13,2018 public hearing date,as required by City ordinance and also sent a courtesy notice of the July 25th continued hearing date. The proposed District is approximately 2,500 feet long,including partial side streets to allow utility risings and runs along Mission Road from Grand Avenue to the southern BART Station entrance where it connects with previously undergrounded utilities.

Discussion When the City establishes an underground utility district,it sets boundaries of an area where existing overhead utilities must be moved underground and no new overhead utilities may be installed.When the district complies with CPUC Rules 20A and 32,the Utility Companies (PG&E,AT&T,Wave Broadband and Comcast)are responsible for most of the undergrounding costs.These costs include installing new underground property service laterals and converting the power service panels typically mounted on the outside of buildings. To be eligible for Rule 20A funding,the City Council must find that forming a utility undergrounding district is in the general public interest for one or more of the following reasons: a.Undergrounding avoids or eliminates an unusually heavy concentration of overhead electric facilities; b.The street right-of-way is extensively used by the general public and carries a heavy volume of pedestrian or vehicular traffic; c.The street right-of-way adjoins or passes through a civic area,public recreation area,or an area of unusual scenic interest to the general public; and/or d.The street or road or right-of-way is an arterial street or major collector. Mission Road qualifies because it is an arterial street carrying a heavy volume of traffic to the BART station and is adjacent to the Centennial Trail,a public recreation area.Rule 20A also requires that the City Council acknowledge that wheelchair access is in the public interest and was considered as a basis for defining the District boundaries.Since replacing the utility poles with a smaller number of carefully placed streetlight and utility cabinets and repairing the sidewalks will improve wheelchair access,the City Council may make this acknowledgement. The estimated commitment of PG&E Rule 20A work credits for the proposed Mission Road Underground Utility District (UUD)is $5,129,000.The City’s total commitment of work credits for Spruce,Antoinette,and Mission UUDs would be $12,819,000.Because this exceeds the City’s available credits by a little more than $5 million,the City would need to postpone work on one or more of the districts until it acquires additional credits,either through annual accrual or by purchasing from other local agencies.Postponing work on the Spruce UUD would allow work to proceed on the Antoinette and Mission UUDs at an estimated credit cost of about $7.5 million,an amount within the City’s currently available Rule 20A credit balance.It is important to stress that all estimated costs quoted in this report are highly conceptual and subject to substantial change as no final design work on the three districts has been completed. South San Francisco Municipal Code §13.16.020 (Code)authorizes the City Council to hold public hearings to ascertain whether public necessity,health,safety,or welfare requires removal of overhead utilities and the underground installation of those facilities.Staff notified all affected property owners thirty days prior to the June 13,2018 public hearing and sent a second courtesy notice of the Council’s continuation of the hearing to July 25,2018.Per the Code,if,after closing the public hearing,the City Council finds establishing a District to be in the general public interest,it may adopt an ordinance establishing the District boundaries.The proposed ordinance requires removal of all overhead electric and communications facilities,retrofit of all properties to receive underground services within the District,authorizes PG&E to discontinue overhead service,and fixes a time within which such work must be done.Rule 20A(3)allows the City Council to direct PG&E to use City credits to pay for up to 100 feet of property underground electric service laterals and up to $1,500 per service for electric panel conversions per affected property within the District.Staff recommends this use of credits rather than requiring individual property owners to bear this cost. Staff representatives have consulted with,and walked the extent of proposed Mission Road District with, City of South San Francisco Printed on 7/20/2018Page 2 of 4 powered by Legistar™ File #:18-599 Agenda Date:7/25/2018 Version:1 Item #:3. Staff representatives have consulted with,and walked the extent of proposed Mission Road District with, representatives of PG&E,AT&T,Wave Broadband and Comcast to evaluate its suitability,estimate costs,and form up the proposed boundaries.Staff has communicated to the Utilities that the City intends to be the “lead agent”also known as “trenching agent”responsible for designing the trench profile and composite joint trench drawings and for managing trenching,installation of substructures,pavement restoration,and such other trench -related work. Staff recommends that the City Council authorize the City Manager to execute all agreements and forms needed to initiate the design and construction work upon establishment of the District, including the following: ·Electric Form 79-1127 “Agreement to Perform Tariff Scheduled Related Work,Rule 20A General Conditions.”This directs PG&E to use the City’s Rule 20A work credits to underground its distribution lines and service laterals,remove the utilities poles,and restore the site.Upon receipt,PG&E will direct the Telecommunications Utilities to participate in the project in accordance with CPUC Rule 32. ·Electric Form 79-1113 “Agreement to Perform Tariff Schedule Related Work Rule 20A Electric Panel Service Conversion.”This directs PG&E to manage the electric service panel conversions and pay for the work from the City’s allocated work credits.The City cannot use Rule 20A work credits to fund the panel conversion cost unless it directs PG&E to do the work by this agreement. ·Letter of Streetlight Agreement.This agreement informs PG&E that the City will purchase and install new streetlights to replace those mounted on utility poles and will include the streetlight power in the joint trench. ·Rule 20A Wheelchair Access Consideration.This acknowledgement,required by Rule 20A (1)(a),states that the City finds wheelchair access to be in the public interest and the City considered such access in defining the District boundaries. Staff also recommends that the City Council authorize the City Manager to direct PG&E to place the Mission Road UUD ahead of Spruce Avenue UUD in the PG&E queue to improve schedule coordination with the other infrastructure improvements along this corridor.This would expedite the Mission Road District schedule by nine months such that the Utilities should be ready to start design of their facilities in fall 2018.Further,staff recommends the City Council authorize the City Manager to make any minor revisions to the District Boundary Map that may be needed to resolve unforeseen conflicts arising during design and construction of the District. It is recommended that City engage a design engineer this summer to begin layout of the joint trench location to assist the Utilities in their designs.The City’s designer will finish the design effort by incorporating the individual Utilities’designs into the Joint Trench composite so the project should be ready to bid in winter 2019.Construction of the underground facilities and service connections is then expected to take another full year (winter 2020). The project is categorically exempt from California Environment Quality Act (CEQA)requirements in accordance with 14 CCR 15302(d)which exempts conversion of overhead electric utility distribution system facilities to underground including connection to existing overhead electric utility distribution lines where the surface is restored to the condition existing prior to the undergrounding. FINANCIAL IMPACT Funding for this project is programmed into the FY2018-19 CIP.The total project cost is conceptually estimated at $7,600,000.The City may request reimbursement of an estimated $6,700,000 of this cost from the Utilities. All quoted costs are highly conceptual and should be expected to change as the project is designed.

Report regarding the Community Civic Campus quarterly update for Quarter 4 Fiscal Year 2017-2018.(Marian Lee, Assistant City Manager and Dolores Montenegro, Kitchell Program Manager) RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that City Council receive this Quarter 4 Fiscal Year 2017-2018 report regarding the Community Civic Campus project and confirm direction regarding the recommended Master Plan to advance to Schematic Design. BACKGROUND This report provides an update on the Community Civic Campus project for Quarter 4 of Fiscal Year 2017- 2018, April 1, 2018 to June 30, 2018. The Community Civic Campus project proposes to build new Police,Fire,and Library and Parks &Recreation facilities.The project will be built at the northeast corner of El Camino Real and Chestnut Avenue and southeast corner of Arroyo Drive and Camaritas Avenue.Our current facilities are seismically unsafe and/or undersized/underequipped to meet the growing needs of our community and new facilities are needed. The new main community center will include a welcoming lobby and atrium area for multiple users,a large multipurpose room which will support public meetings as well as theatre performances,a new Library Hub,a new Parks and Recreation Hub,and outdoor space for passive and active recreation.Shared spaces between the Library and Parks and Recreation will allow both departments to maximize their programs for the community. The new Library Hub will provide larger,quieter spaces that more fully support reading,studying and the use of technology.Teens will have their own “hang out”spot.Four adjacent study rooms of various sizes will help students complete their homework.The Children’s Library will increase in size.In the expanded space,families will enjoy story times among the books in an area comfortably furnished.Early literacy stations will be added to the expanded picture book room for preschoolers.Set apart from the children’s area,the Adult Library will become a quiet reading sanctuary,with views,natural light,and comfortable seating.Finally,state-of-the-art, technology-based learning experiences will be offered in the Discovery Center.The new library and discovery center will feature programs covering a wide range of interests,from basic literacy and computer operation to writing code and building robots. The new Parks and Recreation Hub will provide flexible,adaptable classrooms and meeting rooms,in addition to specialized activity spaces to allow customized programs.The largest activity space will be larger than the current Social Hall.The new Social Hall will have storage for tables and chairs,and dividers so that smaller activities can also be offered while maximizing space utilization.The dance studios will be larger with appropriate flooring and adjacent dressing rooms.Classrooms will be designed for young children with adjacent restrooms to expand programming,and provide safety and operational control for staff supervising the children.A teaching kitchen will allow for cooking classes that can accommodate more students.Classrooms equipped with sinks,floor drains,and durable furnishings and finishes will allow for “messy”art and other creative activities.The combination of adjacent classrooms and meeting rooms will accommodate small conferences and meetings that require a lecture area and break-out rooms.There will be several small musicCity of South San Francisco Printed on 7/20/2018Page 1 of 4 powered by Legistar™ File #:18-120 Agenda Date:7/25/2018 Version:1 Item #:4. conferences and meetings that require a lecture area and break-out rooms.There will be several small music rooms for piano, guitar, voice, or other types of music instruction. The new Police and Fire stations will be designed to the current Essential Services Code Requirement.It will be functional with efficient spaces to meet the operational needs of the public safety departments.The Police facility will include a 911 Emergency Center,support police patrol and spaces for administrative records, communications,investigations,property and evidence,classrooms,physical training,and a firing range. Eighty-one secured surface parking spaces will be provided.The parking spaces will allow for fleet parking and police employee parking.At times,when shift transitions are heavy,police employees will need to utilize parking in nearby areas.The Fire facility will include three apparatus bays,storage,living and dining areas, separate sleeping quarters for males and females,administration and 14 parking spaces for staff and public. These functional areas will provide the best environment for our fire employees and apparatus to efficiently and safely serve our community. DISCUSSION Master Plan Recommendation During Quarter 4,the Master Architect team continued working on validating the program concept with the public and city staff and completed community outreach efforts associated with this phase of the project.The outreach focused on obtaining public input regarding design preferences and user experiences.Findings from program validation and outreach were presented to the City Council on April 25,2018.The following meetings were held with City Council, Commissions, Committees and special events: -City Council Study Sessions -Parks and Recreation Commission (including Friends of Parks and Recreation) -Library Commission (including Friends of Library) -Planning Commission -Cultural Arts Commission -Bike and Pedestrian Committee -Measure W Citizens’ Oversight Committee -Neighborhood and Focus Group Meetings -State of the City Address/Townhall Meeting -Streets Alive! Parks Alive! Outreach was supplemented with printed information,surveys,website information,social media and email blasts. On June 13,2018,the project team presented to City Council a recommended Master Plan for moving forwarding into Schematic Design.Due to unprecedented construction cost escalation over the last few years, the recommended master plan reflected design compromises to contain project cost (e.g.surface parking, limited open space,higher building density).The recommendation was not well received by the majority of the City Council members.City Council shared concerns related to the Master Plan such as the need to better preserve the architectural vision presented by the Smith Group JJR,when selected as the project Master Architect. On July 13,2018,the project team presented to City Council a revised recommended Master Plan with a concept that more closely aligned with the vision presented by the Smith Group JJR during the Master Architect selection process.Attachment 1 reflects the fine-tuned recommended plan based on City Council City of South San Francisco Printed on 7/20/2018Page 2 of 4 powered by Legistar™ File #:18-120 Agenda Date:7/25/2018 Version:1 Item #:4. discussion and the following describes the basic project parameters that will guide schematic design. $34 million will be used for program management and design. $169 million will be allocated to construct the BASE design package which will include the following: ·Site preparation and hard/soft landscaping $18M; ·Police building with 81 fenced/walled surface parking spaces $54M; ·75,000 gross sq.ft.of Library and Parks &Recreation buildings,including shared atrium/lobby space $83M; and ·100 parking spaces below the buildings and 120 surface parking spaces $14M. $14M is the construction cost estimate for the OPTIONAL design packages which will include the following: ·5,000 gross sq. ft. Community Theatre/City Council Chamber $8M; ·Police parking canopy $2M; and ·Additional soft and hard landscaping $4M. The Fire Station estimated at $15 million will be designed but it will be built in a future phase when the MSB site is sold to a developer/interested party. Timing of this is to be determined. The cost estimates include a 10%contingency,and annual construction cost escalation of six percent over the next two and one-half years,as a hedge against rising construction costs.Escalating construction costs continue to be the highest risk to the project.As a further hedge against higher than expected construction costs,the project will have multiple design packages to allow for further construction phasing, if needed. Other Project Updates Additional project team efforts accomplished during this quarter include the following: •Initiated communications and discussions with the Building Trades Council for the Project Labor/Stabilization Agreement (PLA); •Completed cash flow analysis to inform timing of City bond rating and issuance; •Completed Geotechnical Report to inform design team on requirements for design of building foundations; •Initiated communications with Bay Area Rapid Transit (BART)regarding easement agreement to use BART property; •Coordinated efforts with adjacent development projects,utility undergrounding efforts on Antoinette, Oak Avenue Extension design, and GBI improvements on El Camino Real; and •Presented to the Measure W Citizens’Oversight Committee regarding the Fiscal Year 2017-18 Quarter 3 Report.

Report regarding a resolution authorizing the City Manager to execute Amendment No.1 to the Consulting Services Agreement with Chandler Asset Management (Richard Lee, Director of Finance). RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that the City Council of the City of South San Francisco adopt a resolution authorizing the City Manager to execute Amendment No.1 to the Consulting Services Agreement with Chandler Asset Management. BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION Chandler Asset Management has provided professional investment advisory services to the City of South San Francisco since January 2009.In continuing its efforts to ensure due diligence and compliance with best practices,staff issued a Request for Proposals (RFP)in April 2018.The City received eight timely responses to the RFP from the following firms: 1.Moreton Asset Management, LLC; 2.Insight Investment; 3.BlackRock; 4.Garcia Hamilton & Associates, L.P.; 5.Securian Asset Management; 6.PFM Asset Management LLC (PFM); 7.Public Trust Advisors, LLC (Public Trust); and 8.Chandler Asset Management (Chandler). An internal evaluation panel,consisting of the City’s Director of Finance,Financial Services Manager,and Senior Accountant,conducted a preliminary review of the RFP responses,and selected the following firms based on their experience in managing public funds with other California cities and government agencies,fee rates, and overall firm expertise: 1.Public Trust; 2.PFM; and 3.Chandler. The finalist firms were invited to an interview on June 8,2018 with an external evaluation panel,consisting of the following members: 1.Director of Finance, City of East Palo Alto; 2.Deputy Treasurer, City of Redwood City; and 3.Deputy City Manager, City of Half Moon Bay. The City’s Director of Finance and City Treasurer were observers during the interviews. City of South San Francisco Printed on 7/20/2018Page 1 of 2 powered by Legistar™ File #:18-532 Agenda Date:7/25/2018 Version:1 Item #:6. The firms were evaluated on the following criteria: ·Experience and qualifications (45 points); ·Customer service (20 points); ·Cost (20 points); and ·Fit (15 points). As reflected in the evaluation panel’s summary scores,included via Attachment 1,Chandler received 276 points out of 300 possible points, PFM scored 259 points, and Public Trust scored 238 points. Chandler Asset Management is a California-based,SEC-registered investment advisor with over thirty years of experience,and has a targeted focus on the management of fixed-income portfolios for the public sector. Chandler works with over 130 public agencies, including 60 cities across the United States. Chandler has committed to continue providing high level customer service to the City of South San Francisco, including quarterly investment portfolio presentations to the City Council,educational sessions with the Budget Standing Committee,and monthly conference calls with the Director of Finance and City Treasurer.Of note, while Chandler’s proposal marked a fee reduction from the current agreement that would reduce costs by approximately $4,500 or 4.9 percent per year,staff was able to negotiate an additional reduction,which is reflected in the amendment language contained in Exhibit A of the accompanying resolution,which will save approximately $9,500 or 10.3 percent, compared to the current contract fee rates. FISCAL IMPACT Based on the balance of the City’s investment portfolio,approval of the amendment to the agreement with Chandler Asset Management cost approximately $82,000 per year.Compared to the rates from the original agreement,the City will save approximately $9,500 per year with the rates as indicated in Exhibit A of the accompanying resolution. CONCLUSION As recommended by the external evaluation panel,Chandler Asset Management is the best firm to provide investment advisory services to the City of South San Francisco.

Report regarding a resolution accepting a transfer of funds from San Mateo County in the amount of $690,000 to purchase open space on Sign Hill,approving Budget Amendment No.19.003,ratifying the purchase of a 0.13 acre parcel at Diamond Avenue (APN 012-121-130)and a grant of a 20.43 acre parcel on Sign Hill (APN 012-351-350),and authorizing the City Manager to accept the grant deeds for the two properties upon close of escrow.(Richard Lee, Director of Finance) RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that the City Council of the City of South San Francisco adopt a resolution accepting a transfer of funds from San Mateo County in the amount of $690,000 to purchase open space on Sign Hill,approving Budget Amendment No.19.003,ratifying the purchase of a 0.13 acre parcel at Diamond Avenue (APN 012-121-130)and a grant of a 20.43 acre parcel on Sign Hill (APN 012-351-350),and authorizing the City Manager to accept the grant deeds for the two properties upon close of escrow. BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION The Sign Hill area within the City of South San Francisco (“City”)includes Sign Hill Park and the residential areas north of Downtown,subdivisions north of Sign Hill,the Terrabay project on the south slope of San Bruno Mountain,as well as the multifamily Stonegate development.The Heather Heights single-family homes are located in this area on the western flank of Sign Hill.The oldest development in this area is Parkway Terrace subdivision,built in the 1920s.Sign Hill includes existing trails and a diversity of natural habitat,including areas of high quality native grasslands and scrub which support occurrences of special-status plants and animal species.Over approximately the past two years,City staff has been exploring the possibility of purchasing open space parcels on Sign Hill to expand Sign Hill Park. Recently,the City received an offer from the Ross H.Liberty,Cheryl A.and Ronald W.McAgehee Trust (“the Trust”)to purchase a 0.13 acre parcel on Diamond Avenue,identified as APN 012-121-130,and receive a simultaneous donation of a 20.43 acre parcel on the north side of Sign Hill,identified as APN 012-351-150. Upon receipt of the offer from the Trust,the City Council considered the offer in closed session at its June 13, 2018 regular meeting.Following that meeting,the City Council gave the City Manager direction and authority to accept the offer.The Trust has agreed to sell the 0.13 acre parcel on Diamond Avenue (APN 012-121-130)to the City for $750,000,plus a 3%commission for the Trust’s real estate broker,and then donate the 20.43 acre parcel on Sign Hill (APN 012-351-350)to the City as part of the escrow for the purchase of the 0.13 acre parcel.An additional term of the purchase includes the agreement that the donated portion of land be named, “Friends of Liberty Park.” On February 27,2018,San Mateo County Board of Supervisors approved a transfer of $690,000 from the San Mateo County Parks Acquisition and Development Fund to the City for the purchase of additional public open space on Sign Hill in South San Francisco.The transfer was for the purpose of adding 20 acres of permanent open space for habitat preservation as well as for walking trails to be maintained by the South San Francisco Parks and Recreation Department. GENERAL PLAN CONSISTENCY The General Plan proposes several new parks to meet the needs of new residents and employees,as well asCity of South San Francisco Printed on 7/20/2018Page 1 of 2 powered by Legistar™ File #:18-650 Agenda Date:7/25/2018 Version:1 Item #:7. The General Plan proposes several new parks to meet the needs of new residents and employees,as well as linear parks along old railroad spurs and above the underground BART tracks.Parkland proposals are discussed in detail in Guiding and Implementing policies in the Land Use Element,the Planning Sub-Areas Element,the Parks,Public Facilities and Services Element,and Open Space and Conservation Element.According to the Park Master Plan,Recreational Open Space,these lands are most often used for passive recreation activities, such as walking or hiking.South San Francisco’s unusual geographic features provide numerous opportunities for unique open space areas,such as the Sign Hill Park.The General Plan identifies the lack of traditional park facilities in the Sign Hill/ Paradise Valley Area as a serious deficiency. California Government Code §65402 requires that,as a precondition to any disposition of real property,the City’s Planning Commission must make a determination that the location,purpose and extent of the proposed disposition is in conformity with the City’s General Plan.Staff has concluded that the location,purpose and extent of the proposed purchase of the 0.13 acre parcel on Diamond Avenue (APN 012-121-130),which the General Plan designates as Low Density Residential and the proposed acceptance of the 20.43 acre parcel on Sign Hill (APN 012-351-050),which the General Plan designates Open Space,is in conformity with the City’s General Plan.At its meeting on July 19,2018,the Planning Commission determined that that the location, purpose and extent of the proposed disposition is in conformity with the City’s General Plan. FISCAL IMPACT The total price of the land acquisition cost is $772,500,of which,$690,000 is covered by the contribution from the County of San Mateo.The remainder of $82,500 will be paid using existing General Fund appropriations in the FY 2017-18 budget, thus no additional appropriations are required. CONCLUSION Acquisition of land adjacent to one of the City’s most historic landmarks,Sign Hill,will provide additional open space for the benefit of the South San Francisco community.

Report regarding a resolution awarding a construction contract to Flatiron West Inc., a Delaware Corporation with an office at 2100 Goodyear Road, Benicia, California for the South San Francisco/San Bruno Water Quality Control Plant Wet Weather and Digester Improvements Project (Project No. ss1301) in an amount not to exceed $49,600,891 and authorizing a total construction budget of $52,080,936. (Richard Cho, Senior Civil Engineer, Eunejune Kim, Director of Public Works and Brian Schumacker, Plant Superintendent) 5a. Resolution No. 112-2018 awarding a construction contract to Flatiron West Inc., a Delaware Corporation with an office at 2100 Goodyear Road, Benicia, California, for the South San Francisco/San Bruno Water Quality Control Plant Wet Weather and Digester Improvements Project (Project No. ss1301) in an amount not to exceed $49,600,891, and authorizing a total construction budget of $52,080,936. Director of Public Works Kim presented the staff report recommending that Council adopt a resolution approving award of a construction contract to Flatiron West Inc. for the South San Francisco/San Bruno Water Quality Control Plant Wet Weather and Digester Improvements Project with a total construction budget of $52,080,936. Director Kim advised this was a complex project requiring careful management and collaboration between the designer, contractor, engineer and City staff. Director Kim then introduced Project Manager from Erler EKI, Stephen Tarantino. He explained Mr. Tarantino would provide further detail about the proposed contract with Flatiron. Mr. Tarantino is a registered engineer with over 30 years of experience in the wastewater industry. Mr. Tarantino provided a PowerPoint presentation on the project. He began with slides depicting an aerial view of the project area. He stated the WQCP is mandated by the regional board to improve the treatment capacity of the secondary portion of the plant and also the digesters. He then moved to projected cost. The engineer’s estimate was a probable cost of $44,600,000 whereas the bid from Flatiron was $49,600,000. While the actual bid was roughly 11% above the engineer’s estimate, the project could be funded with the City’s recently implemented existing rate structure and assisted by the State’s revolving loan fund, which the City was close to achieving. Mr. Tarantino noted further and significantly that Flatiron was the only bidder on the project. Mr. Tarantino explained that the Bay area construction market, impact on State SRF funding, compliance with NPDES Permit requirements, and Flatiron’s high quality as a contractor all contributed to the recommendation of approval of the contract. Mr. Tarantino then introduced professionals in attendance that would be collaborating on the project as follows: Rick Chan of Carollo Engineers, Dave Umezaki of Erler EKI, Jason Burden with Flatiron and David Worth with Flatiron. He then invited questions. REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING JULY 11, 2018 MINUTES PAGE 4 Mayor Pro Tem Matsumoto asked whether the project was on the CIP or generated by the NPDES permit. Public Works Director Kim advised it was generated by the NPDES permit and contemplated in the CIP. However, CIP funding was not allocated because the City awaited the State revolving fund loan. For residents in the audience and watching at home, Councilman Gupta explained wet weather improvements. He stated that when there is a lot of rain, water flows through the drains to the WQCP and compromises the efficiency, durability and effectiveness of the water cleaning process. The changes contemplated by the contract will create a parallel path where the extra water will flow to avoid these complications. In response to a line of questioning from Councilman Addiego, Mr. Tarantino advised the application to the state revolving fund requests a $53 million loan. He believed the City’s request would likely be granted at an interest rate of 1-1/2 a percent. The City may also be eligible for some principal forgiveness on this loan because the digester project is going to result in the production of a lot more gas. Part of the project is a gas cleaning system so that the generator that runs on the natural gas from the sewage will run a lot more. This is very energy efficient as it is not drawing from the grid. Motion—Councilman Gupta/Second—Councilman Addiego: to approve Resolution No. 112– 2018. Unanimously approved by roll call vote. 6. Report regarding the Cost of a Service Study of select Parks and Recreation Department fees; and a resolution approving an amendment to the Fiscal Year 2018-19 Master Fee Schedule for select fees charged by the Parks and Recreation Department. (Sharon Ranals, Director, Parks and Recreation) 6a. Resolution No. 113-2018 approving an amendment to the Fiscal Year 2018-19 Master Fee Schedule for select fees charged by the Parks and Recreation Department. Director of Parks and Recreation Ranals presented the staff report recommending that Council adopt a Resolution approving an amendment to the Fiscal Year 2018-19 Master Fee Schedule for select fees charged by the Parks and Recreation Department. She stated staff’s recommendation that Council receive a report done by the consultant NBS Government Finance Group regarding a cost of service study for selected Parks & Recreation fees and approve an amendment to the fiscal year master fee schedule for selected fees. Staff presented a similar report to the Parks & Recreation Commission in June, explained the fee study and took input from the Commission regarding fee setting. The Commission’s recommendation was currently before Council. As background on the impetus for the NBS study, Director Ranals advised that following a City-wide fee study in 2017, Council expressed an interest in doing a deeper dive into some of the recreation programs that are less cost recovering than others. The three (3) programs subject to further study were aquatics, sports and seniors. Director Ranals then introduced Nicole Kissem from NBS to present the methodology that was used to determine the actual cost of service. REGULAR CITY COUNCIL MEETING JULY 11, 2018 MINUTES PAGE 5 Ms. Kissem addressed Council and provided a PowerPoint presentation summarizing the fee study. She stated the goal of the study to show the full cost of service so that Council could set fees according to local cost recovery policy for the different programs. She briefly touched on Proposition 26 which amended the California Constitution in 2010. It is significant because it impacts how recreation fees are established. A fee has to fall under 1 of 7 stated exceptions to avoid qualification as a tax. Recreation fees fall under 2 of the 7 exceptions- fees for service and user fees for government property. Ms. Kissem next reviewed the project approach. She explained the team collected data and looked at the total cost of service. A per unit or per fee item cost of service outcome was determined on this basis. Ms. Kissem continued and explained that the data used was the 17/18 budget as the 18/19 budget was in progress during analysis. We used as much work load or participant data for various types of fees charged that we could find and we also used estimates of time for where staff spends their time on these various programs and how long it takes to provide different programs or different facilities and so forth. We did do a lot of interviewing with staff to talk about how these services are provided. And then, of course, we consulted the current fee schedule so that we can compare what we’re currently charging to what the full cost is. Once the full cost was determined, the price charged for the service was reviewed. She noted that’s always different with governmental fees as there is a full cost amount and then there is the price adopted pursuant to the cost recovery policy. Anything in-between those two numbers is a subsidy if the price is lower than the cost. Ms. Kissem next reviewed the findings stating there was nothing surprising in the outcomes for sports, aquatics or seniors. For example, in sports, the youth programs have a heavier subsidy than adult sports. That’s a typical outcome. Pool fees are subsidized and that is also a typical outcome. The team found fee reductions needed in the area of non-resident fees. Ms. Kissem turned the presentation over to Director Ranals for Council questions. Director Ranals reiterated that the proposed fees are not reflective of an effort to cover the full cost of service provision. In response to a question from Mayor Pro Tem Matsumoto, Director Ranals advised the subsidies are accounted for in the annual budget. Motion—Councilman Garbarino/Second—Councilman Addiego: to approve Resolution No. 113- 2018. Unanimously approved by roll call vote. CONSENT CALENDAR 7.

Report regarding a motion to accept the construction improvements for the Grand Avenue Pedestrian Improvements Project and West Orange Avenue/Centennial Way Pedestrian Beacon Project as complete in accordance with plans and specifications (total construction cost of $333,973). (Richard Cho, Sr. Civil Engineer) RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that the City Council of the City of South San Francisco,by motion,accept the construction improvements for the Grand Avenue Pedestrian Improvements Project (Project No.st1706) and West Orange Avenue/Centennial Way Pedestrian Beacon Project (Project No.tr1402)as complete in accordance with plans and specifications (total construction cost $333,973). BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION This project completed safety upgrades at existing pedestrian crossings on Grand Avenue between Cypress and Walnut Avenues and on West Orange Avenue at Centennial Way Trail. The City installed rectangular rapid flashing beacon (RRFB)devices to provide better visibility for motorists driving on Grand Avenue to yield to pedestrians in advance of mid-block crosswalks and uncontrolled intersections.RRFBs are reliable devices and result in low maintenance for City crews.Two RRFBs were installed for each crosswalk.In addition to standard push-button activation,the City installed a passive detection device (camera)to detect pedestrians at the sidewalks waiting to cross the street.The RRFB devices are powered by solar energy and did not require any trenching in the street or sidewalk work. West Orange Avenue at Centennial Way Trail is a highly-used recreational facility within the City.At the point where the trail crosses West Orange Avenue,the contractor installed new RRFB devices for better visibility for motorists approaching the crosswalk.The existing in-ground lights were removed at this crosswalk.The newly- installed RRFBs provide improved advance notification for motorists approaching the crossing from a greater distance than other types of devices (i.e. in-ground lights). On January 10,2018,the City Council awarded the Grand Avenue and West Orange Avenue Pedestrian Crossing Improvements Project to W.Bradley Electric,Inc.of Novato,California.A Notice to Proceed was issued on February 2, 2018. The project was substantially complete on June 19, 2018. The total construction cost incurred for the project is summarized as follows: Projected Actual W Bradley Electric Inc. Construction Contract $341,100 $324,045 Construction Contingency $ 68,220 $ 9,928 Total Construction Budget $409,320 $333,973 The construction contingency was used to address additional costs associated with painting poles black to City of South San Francisco Printed on 7/20/2018Page 1 of 2 powered by Legistar™ File #:18-594 Agenda Date:7/25/2018 Version:1 Item #:11. The construction contingency was used to address additional costs associated with painting poles black to match existing aesthetics on Grand Avenue and to upgrade the sign color to a higher-visibility,fluorescent yellow-green. FINANCIAL IMPACT The cost for this construction project was funded by the Community Development Block Grant,gas tax fund, and Measure A funds.The project was included in the South San Francisco Fiscal Year 2017-18 Capital Improvement Program (Project No. st1706 and tr1402), which covered the construction contingency. CONCLUSION Staff recommends acceptance of the project as complete.Upon acceptance,a Notice of Completion will be filed with the County of San Mateo Recorder’s Office.At the end of the thirty day lien period,the retention funds will be released to the Contractor after the City receives the one-year warranty bond.

Report regarding adoption of a resolution of intention to approve an amendment to the contract between the Board of Administration of the California Public Employees’Retirement System and the City of South San Francisco to increase Classic Safety member contributions to pension (Leah Lockhart, Human Resources Director) RECOMMENDATION It is recommended that the City Council of the City of South San Francisco adopt a resolution of intention to amend the City’s contract with CalPERS in order to implement a 1% increase in employee pension contributions for Public Safety members as provided for in the public safety labor agreements. BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION The City contracts with CalPERS to provide pension benefits for all full-time employees. Over the past several years, CalPERS agencies throughout the state have experienced a significant increase in pension costs. This increase is primarily due to accrued unfunded liabilities resulting from lower than expected investment returns, changing employee and retiree demographics, and increased life expectancy for current and future retirees. In January 2013, the Public Employees Pension Reform Act (PEPRA) was enacted, which mandated a lower pension formula for employees hired after January 1, 2013. However, as this change only applies to new employees, current costs and unfunded liabilities for retirees and employees hired prior to January 1, 2013 continue to drive cost increases for the City over the next several years. In light of this challenge, the City worked collaboratively with labor groups during labor negotiations in 2017 to implement employee cost-sharing as part of a strategy to mitigate the increase in the City’s pension costs. In July 2017, the Council approved agreements with public safety employees, which include International Association of Firefighters Local 1507 (IAFF), Police Officers Association (POA), Public Safety Managers (PSM), and Executive Management. These agreements outlined provisions for employee cost-sharing of City contributions to CalPERS. In accordance with Government Code 20516(a), cost-sharing may be implemented by amending an agency’s contract to increase the employee contribution to CalPERS, thereby reducing the employer’s cost of the benefit. By statute, public safety employees who are classic members must contribute 9% of salary to pension. The 2017 agreements for public safety employees provide for an increase in member contributions of 3% of salary, for a total employee contribution of 12% for Classic Safety members. The increases are scheduled to occur in 1% increments in each fiscal year from 2017 to 2019. In November, 2017 Council adopted an ordinance to amend the CalPERS contract in order to increase the employee contribution for public safety members from 9% to 10% of salary. The current ordinance would increase the employee contribution from 10% to 11% for the current fiscal year. These changes do not apply to “new members” under PEPRA, who are required to pay 50% of the normal cost of the benefit. This amount is subject to change based on the projected cost of future benefits. CalPERS requires a separate contract amendment for each change to employee contributions. In accordance with CalPERS regulations, in order to amend the contract the City Council must adopt a resolution of intention, followed by a ballot vote of employees who are affected by the change. Once these steps are complete, the final adoption of the ordinance to amend the contract with CalPERS may occur. Should the Council approve the resolution of intention, a City of South San Francisco Printed on 7/20/2018Page 1 of 2 powered by Legistar™ File #:18-635 Agenda Date:7/25/2018 Version:1 Item #:12. ballot vote will be held, and if successful, the final ordinance will be scheduled for adoption on September 12, 2018. FISCAL IMPACT The approved labor agreements provide for long-term structural changes in the City’s Classic Safety member pension costs.The projected savings from this year’s proposed contract amendment have been included in the 2018-2019 fiscal year budget.The 1%increase in employee contributions was anticipated to begin July 1, 2018.However,due to administrative delays in beginning the process for a contract amendment,the increase in employee contributions cannot be effectuated until the final ordinance is adopted.This will result in an approximate cost of $55,600 for fiscal year 2018-2019 only.In 2019,the City will bring a resolution of intention to Council no later than March 1 in order to effectuate the final increase to employee contributions on July 1, 2019. CONCLUSION It is recommended that the City Council adopt a resolution of intent to approve a contract amendment with CalPERS implementing an increase to the employee share of pension costs for Classic Safety members.
