will be a result of area-specific
planning efforts

Highway 101 Corridor
Guiding Questions
Should the Downtown pattern (e.g. mix of uses, intensities) extend south to ColmaCreek / N Canal Street?
Should residential be allowed East of 101, particularly adjacent to the Caltrain station and 101 as an extension of Downtown?
If residential is allowed, should we define a “critical mass” to create a neighborhood?
What services would be needed to support residential?
Should residential be considered south of Colma Creek (e.g. Park & Fly and along Airport Blvd.?
Should Airport Boulevard be a gateway for Downtown, extending the pattern of allowed uses and intensities north along 101 to Pecks Lot?
El Camino Real
El Camino Real
A dynamic and re-envisioned boulevard that is a safe and healthy place for transit riders, pedestrians, and cyclists, with a diverse mix of commercial and residential uses
Improve travel along and across El Camino Real for all modes with
Improved sidewalks, street trees, and crosswalks for pedestrians
Improved access to city and regional destinations for cyclists
Well-managed parking and traffic flow
Accessible BART and bus service
Create pedestrian-oriented, mixed-use centers with pockets of concentrated activity at
South San Francisco BART station
The El Camino Real/Chestnut Avenue Area
The South El Camino area
Create visual transitions and improve transportation connections to adjacent neighborhoods
Transform Colma Creek into a public amenity
Guiding Questions for Discussion
Should the overall vision remain the same:
El Camino is re-envisioned boulevard that is a
safe and healthy place for transit riders,
pedestrians, and cyclists
Prioritize pedestrian-oriented, mixed-use centers
with pockets of concentrated activity be created
at:
South San Francisco BART station
El Camino Real/Chestnut Avenue area
South El Camino Real / Spruce Avenue area
How do you want us to address current height /
density regulations?
In mixed-use centers, where should the highest
density development be allowed, e.g. only fronting
directly on ECR, on parcels with ECR frontage,
transitioning from ECR back towards side streets?
East of 101
East of 101
A well-connected innovation district with a diverse mix of uses that serves as a model of sustainability, resilience, and economic opportunity
Preserve the cluster of life science as an economic engine for the City and an international hub while blending new emerging industries into the district
Maintain a well-connected district with high-quality transit, walking and biking paths, and high-speed internet
Create places and programming to inspire creativity and social interaction in hubs of activity
Diversify the mix of uses in the district, concentrating the highest-intensities adjacent to Caltrain and along transit corridors (South Airport, Gateway, Oyster Point, E Grand)
Proactively build long-term resilience to sea level rise
Connect residents and employees to the Bay
Harness the creativity of the district to create collaborative solutions to complex district challenges, such as sea level rise and traffic
Guiding Questions:East of 101 (North)
Outside of the Highway 101 Corridor,
should the City maintain a vision for
higher density life sciences, office, and
advanced technologies?
Should development intensity be
focused on along transit corridors
(South Airport, Gateway, Oyster Point,
E Grand)?
Guiding Questions:East of 101 (South)
Should the City maintain a base of middle-wage jobs (e.g., light industrial and production/distribution)?
Should life sciences and other
technology firms be allowed south of
the rail spur?
Should S Airport Blvd. be enhanced as
a gateway to the City with a mix of
uses, included hospitality?
Should the City proactively address sea level rise?
Lindenville
Lindenville
An enhanced mixed-use district that maintains a base of middle-wage jobs and promotes the creative economy, while capitalizing on access to Downtown and BART
Preserve a core area of light industrial and service uses that provide middle-wage jobs for South San Francisco residents
Proactively support the industries, artists, institutions, and programs that spur the creative economy
Sustain a diverse mix of uses with higher intensities close to Downtown, the San Bruno BART station, and along Spruce Ave and Highway 101
Proactively build long-term resilience to sea level rise and Colma Creek flooding
Maintain a well-connected district with high-quality transit, walking and biking paths, and high-speed internet
Guiding Questions for Discussion
Should the area encourage art, cultural, and
other creative sector businesses?
Should the area maintain a base of middle-wage
jobs (e.g., light industrial and city-serving uses)?
Should a more intense, mix of uses be allowed
near the San Bruno BART station in south
Lindenville?
Downtown

Bond Issuance Summary
2Overview of Bond Issuance
Two Tranches:
–Series 2020A, Police Station = $53.8 million in proceeds
–Series 2020B, Civic Campus = $61.2 million in proceeds
Estimated All-in Total Interest Cost = 3.47% (assumes Jan. 14 market conditions plus 50 bps)
Estimated Delivery Date Expenses for Series 2020A
–Cost of Issuance (COI) = $156,800
–Underwriter’s Discount = $140,000
Cost of Issuance for Series 2020B offset by Interest Savings
–Underwriter’s Discount is almost directly correlated with Par Amount so not a cost consideration
for two-pronged approach
–Expectation that there will be similar COI for 2020B
–6 month interest on $60M > $1 million
Lease Revenue Bond Structure
4
Why a Lease Revenue Bond?
City of South San Francisco cannot issue bonds payable from its General Fund without a two-thirds
vote of the electorate
However, the City does have general contracting powers that allow it to enter into a long-term lease of
real property for its use
To finance new public facilities, general law cities in CA can use the Marks-Roos Local Bond Pooling
Act of 1985 (JPA Act), which allows the City to form a JPA to act as the issuer of bonds on the City’s
behalf.
–City South San Francisco Public Facilities Financing Authority (SSF JPA) approved by Council on
Dec. 11, 2019
–SSF JPA has power to issue bonds without a vote of the electorate
Real Property pledged for financing:
–Orange Memorial Park
–Miller Street Garage
Asset seizure of real property is highly unlikely 5

Ratings Process
Why Ratings Process is a Big Deal
Credit rating agencies provide independent appraisal of the credit quality and likelihood of timely
repayment of a bond issue
Higher the Credit Rating = Lower the Interest Rate (Borrowing Cost)
City seeking S&P Rating Only
–Given size of bond issuance, only one rating necessary
Credit Considerations
–Overall financial health of City
–Measure W sales tax revenue
–Future growth projections and stress tests on financial projections
–Pension/OPEB liability

agency for SSF, Brisbane & San Bruno
10-15 requests/month from SSF
residents

Process
1.YMCA provides SSF clients with support &
referrals based on their needs and qualifications
2.Renter must provide:
a.Cause for delay in payment –emergency or
financial hardship
b.Plan to pay for expenses in the future
3.Other cases referred to St. Vincent de Paul
5
Reasons for
Denying
Assistance
Over income (for eligible funding source)
Sub-lease, rather than renting from owner
Landlord will not sign a W-9 form
Mismanagement of funds and/or not able
to demonstrate self-sustainability
Core agency runs out of funds
6
7
St. Vincent
de Paul
1.Receives referrals from YMCA
2.Conducts home visit through local parish
a.Brings groceries and assesses other needs
b.Issues vouchers for clothes and furniture
c.Provides rental payment directly to landlord
3.Denies rental assistance when budget exhausted or
in cases of scams
4.In 2019, provided $26,553 in assistance for 23 SSF
residents
Conclusions
Current system (County-YMCA-SVDP)
works well overall… however:
Need for service has grown in SSF
Current levels of funding tend to run low
in May-June and Oct-Dec
Many SSF requests denied due to strict
program requirements (e.g., legal status,
sub-lease, no sustainability plan)
