Kaloma A. Smith Human Relations Commission Application 5 of 5 List relevant education, training, experience, certificates of training, licenses, or professional registration: I have a wide range of experience and training that I feel would make me very useful in the role. Here is a brief synopsis of pertinent leadership experiences: 1. I have been able to successfully lead the University A.M.E. Zion through a significant transformation and growth. When I arrived five years ago, our congregation was down to 19 active members, who were black and seniors. Today we have grown to 120 active members, and we are now a multicultural church with an average age of 32. 2. I have completed the required course of study and educational training necessary for the ordination in the African Methodist Episcopal Zion Church. The ordination criteria are eight years of denominational study and formal schooling. This training included focus on community building, interpersonal conflict resolution and more. 3. I work on the national level to address systemic societal issues. I am currently part of the leadership cadre for the March Against Racism in Washington DC on April 4 th in Washington DC to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the assassination of Martin Luther King. This march is sponsored by the National Council of Churches which represents 38 denominations, 100,000 congregations, and 45 million people. 4. I have been selected to be part of the Next Generation Leadership Cohort of World Methodist Evangelism which is part of World Methodist Council which represent 82 million people from 133 countries. 5. I am part of the Emerging Social Leader Cohort of the Peninsula Solidarity Network. I am the only clergy selected to the cohort from Santa Clara County. 6. I served as the Vice Chairperson for Ecumenical Hunger Program in East Palo Alto. Describe your involvement in community activities, volunteer and civic organizations: I am currently the Senior Pastor of the University A.M.E. Zion Church which is the oldest black church in the city of Palo Alto; this role has allowed me to connect with a wide range of community leaders and to be on the forefront of community dialogue around many issues. In the past three years I have led or participated in several initiatives to help foster a healthy conversation in our community: Community Open Forums on Race in America: After the tragic shootings at Mother Emmanuel A.M.E. Church in Charleston SC, there was a significant community outpouring of concern about race and where do we move from here. We held several community forums, which each had over 150 people in attendance. These forums allowed us to start the discussion around race and equality in our community and our country as a whole. Out of these community forums, we executed three significant initiatives; the first was the Community Unity Fair at Cubberley Community Center. We partnered with the city of Palo Alto and several local religious and civic organizations to hold a community fair that had children of different racial, ethnic, and religious backgrounds coming together to have fun. The goal was to create a space that would allow DocuSign Envelope ID: C4619C96-457B-4723-B7BF-F4E706BFF269 children meet others from different backgrounds and let them see that we are all the same. The second was viewing and discussing the movie Church. This movie dealt with white privilege and its impact on racism and implicit bias and how it impacts Palo Alto. The discussion was lively and cathartic. The third activity was a community book club that read the book "The New Jim Crow." It was a thought provoking and compelling dialogue dealing with mass incarceration and how it impacts our communities. I have also partnered with the Human Relations Committee in the planning of two initiatives in 2016 and 2017 named "Being Different Together." The original 2016 was a panel discussion and forum held at the Mitchell Park Library. I was part of the planning team along with being the moderator for that event. This event was a great success and well attended; it sparked us to ask the question, How could we continue the positive momentum and equip community leaders with tools to address implicit bias In 2017 we planned a 4 part Being Different Together." We worked with Dr. Joseph Brown from Stanford University to bring the implicit bias training that Stanford developed to the Palo Alto community. We were intentional inviting and encouraged persons from varied perspectives to be part of this community dialogue. It was terrific to have so many different views in the room. It made the discussion more meaningful and authentic. This initiative was a great success because of the positive community response. It also allowed people to be reflective of their implicit bias and it equipped them with tools to take back to their various constituency. I have also been active in promoting and developing ecumenical and interfaith connections in Palo Alto. Under my leadership, the University A.M.E. Zion Church has led our community in several activities to encourage religious tolerance. One of our events was sponsoring the 2016 Multifaith Peace Walk and Picnic to remember 9/11. The Multifaith Peace Walk started at Congregation Etz Chayim/Spark Church, then it went to University Church, followed by walking to Our Lady of the Rosary Catholic Church and concluded with American Muslim Voice hosted Peace Picnic at Mitchell Park. Each of the stops put together a brief presentation on how we can achieve peace in our society. The march was a fantastic show of solidarity in our community with over 700 participants, and over 35 community faith and civic organization represented including the Chief of Police from the city of Palo Alto. Finally, I am part of the of the Social Justice for Emerging Leader cohort for the Peninsula Solidarity Network. The Silicon Valley Foundation sponsors the Social Justice for Emerging Leader cohort. This program gathers community leaders from many faith traditions to research, discuss and dialogue with subject matter experts on issues that specifically affect our area. We have spent significant time examining issues such immigration, hyper capitalism, and housing issues. 1. What is it about the Human Relations Commission that is compatible with your experience and of specific interest to you, and why? DocuSign Envelope ID: C4619C96-457B-4723-B7BF-F4E706BFF269 Building healthy and sustainable communities is one of my passions. Whether it is in my role as Senior Pastor at University or in the Palo Alto community, I desire to build bridges and give voice to all stakeholders, equitably and efficiently. I believe this lines up with the stated purpose of the Human Relations Commission of fostering public awareness and understanding of human relations by any means. I believe the first step in any movement forward or reconciliation is an open dialogue, and it hopefully will foster compassion and communication for all parties involved. We live in very complicated times, and I believe for Palo Alto to continue to be a healthy and dynamic city, the work of the Human Relations Commission is vital. People in the community need to know there is a place where they can speak on complicated and nuanced issues we face today. 2. Please describe an issue that recently came before the Commission that is of particular interest to you and describe why you are interested in it. If you have never been to a Commission meeting you can view an archive: The March 8th meeting of the Human Relations Commission dealt with the issue of Palo Alto Police Field Based Video Policy. I believe this is one of the most critical issues in modern policing. The use of these technologies adds a layer of accountability and protection to the police officers. It's important that our city has a comprehensive policy in place to protect its citizens and employees. In today's modern political climate policing incidents can be significant flashpoints and having video evidence can hopefully allow for more clarity in the investigation of these incidents. 3. If appointed, what specific goals would you like to see the Human Relations Commission achieve, and why? How would you suggest accomplishing this? Palo Alto is indeed a global city, attracting people from all over the world. Our diversity is one of our greatest strengths, but it is an underutilized resource. Many people in Palo Alto have limited community based around work, ethnic groups or children activities. We as a city need to find ways to encourage and build deeper relationships based on the fact that we are all Palo Alto residents. We need to find ways to help those who are new to the community to dive into the deep end and connect with others. We also need to find ways to encourage longtime residents to be more receptive and accepting of newcomers. If I have the honor of being on the Human Relations Commission, my goal would be to develop resolutions, events, programs, and initiatives to encourage broader community in the city we call home.

Most relevant is my appointment to two City Commissions. In my term on the HRC, I have promoted diversity by leading the response to Council Resolution #9653. Currently I am working on initiatives for gender equity, gender identity, and immigrant engagement. Previously I initiated, Being Different Together, to address implicit bias. In my two terms on the LAC, I was actively involved researching and compiling the LSMAR, the strategic plan for our city libraries; communicating with neighborhoods and Council members; implementing the strategy to improve the delivery of library services. I have worked and volunteered in developing economies, with HIV/AIDS awareness, gender issues, and small/micro entrepreneurship. In one effort, I developed and delivered a program of basic business training for the poorest of the poor and HIV/AIDS awareness moving individuals from subsistence level to economic well-being. 1. What is it about the Human Relations Commission that is compatible with your experience and of specific interest to you, and why? The Human Relations Commission provides an avenue, for me, to be involved in the promotion of civic values on my home turf. My hope for Palo Alto is that the resources and infrastructure exist to give a diverse population a fair chance and a framework to act on his/her own initiative. My professional and volunteer experience give evidence, I hope, to the planning, implementation, and collaboration skills I would bring to the Human Relations Commission. My interest in the Commission is broad. I am proud to live in Palo Alto. It is important to me that, as the city grows, we continue to care for diverse populations and budget to provide human services. Going forward, I do have specific interest in affordable housing and supporting socio-economic diversity. Even now, we are a community in change. Some voices are unheard. The HRC can bring attention and focus to these voices. The HRC can prioritize and provide visibility to the agencies with expertise serving diverse segments.

Please describe an issue that recently came before the Commission that is of particular interest to you and describe why you are interested in it. If you have never been to a Commission meeting you can view an archived video from the Midpen Media Center: LINK Commission development is one issue, which I would like to foster. Commission appointment is frequently the entry to civic service. Appointees may or may not be familiar with the city, how the city operates, the resources available, the resources unavailable. The HRC meets once a month, effectively one planning meeting and 11 monthly meetings. There really isn't time to come up to speed. The newly appointed Commissioner has to come in running. The HRC, when fully staffed, has seven Commissioners and access to professional staff, who have a full complement of responsibilities beyond the HRC. The work plan needs everyone participating at full capacity. A formalized approach to the Commission's authority, processes, city information resources, and community partners could assist both new Commissioners and standing Commissioners to function optimally. 3. If appointed, what specific goals would you like to see the Human Relations Commission achieve, and why? How would you suggest accomplishing this? My goals for the HRC would be (1)to be an efficient and well -running Commission and (2)to address diversity in Palo Alto. For the first, . Formalize Commission operating procedures • Provide for Commission Development For the second, • Continue to satisfactory endpoints those diverse, supportive, inclusive and protective initiatives started, for example, - Collaborate with the County to provide meaningful support services for LGBTQ community - Make meaningful steps towards gender equity - Explore the need for a leadership training for new immigrants - With local partners, explore Welcome America programming •Add initiatives to the FY2019 work plan, or e.ainle establish Human a ions Commission Application Mtpd§WesiWng and allied services as priorities, that is, to 3 of 5 identify where we can make the most significant enhancements in the nrnvicinn of hniicinrr and cnnnnrt to fully inrnrnnrata thncP whn lives Human Relations Commission Application 4 of 5 4.

In 2010, his art is exported internationally, where he represented Senegal in an international event of contemporary art at the GRAFFRICA Festival (Las Palmas), in 2011 at the Festival of the City of Tarifa (Spain) and so many more. GodEye is among a creative network of trendsetters and young artists in Senegal, in their own right, whether it be fashion, visual art, communications, dance or entrepreneurship. Down the line, GodEye aims to continue to share his expertise and experience by giving back to his community with the creation of his Visual Art & Communications Academy.

Please describe an issue that recently came before the Commission that is of particular interest to you and describe why you are interested in it. If you have never been to a Commission meeting you can view an archived video from the Midpen Media Center: LINK The recently presented issue of particular interest to me is the art in private development project associated with the Bowman School project — the proposal by Kamau Amu Patton is a well conceived program design that includes the participation of students. With my background creating a recognized model for teaching youth art in Art -Bytes, this aligns with my beliefs that community- driven, especially youth driven public art is a central axis of life-long learning which allows a public program to focus on building and sustaining a healthy diverse experience while providing a framework for proactively responding to a changing cultural landscape. By advancing the arts in combination with creative and comprehensive systems of problem - solving, the social epidemics that drain our country's resources can be minimized. Art heals by bringing clarity and understanding to a society. Most important to my belief is that art is effective in solving larger community problems, facilitating educational objectives, redefining relationships between various community sectors and creating new avenues for a "shared community vision." 3. If appointed, what specific goals would you like to see the Public Art Commission achieve, and why? How would you suggest accomplishing this? Having directed an international arts organization for over 14 years as well as being a licensed investment advisor has afforded me the experience and knowledge as expert in financial analysis and arts management. I would like to see the Public Art Commission achieve not only financial sustainability for the public art program but also to initiate greater economic development through this program. This can be accomplished in a variety of ways, all of which improve the quality of life for a community. A few selected avenues could include: 1. Recognizing cultural assets to enhance Cultural Tourism 2. Increased social media communication, ie a virtual tour of the City's art collection, etc. 3. Outreach and marketing community assets to attract local business engagement/investment emphasizing a multiplier effect. 4. Making connections between sectors, inside and outside the local community.

What is it about the Public Art Commission that is compatible with your experience and of specific interest to you, and why? We have been lucky to be a part of the Palo Alto community since we moved to 345 Sheridan Ave Apt 204 in 1996; since then we have also lived in a condo and now in midtown on Kipling Street. We have seen Palo Alto develop as it probably always has and will continue to, and we mourn the loss of certain small businesses and familiar faces (e.g. businesses on Calif Ave when it was lined by large shady trees, independent book stores, family -run bowling alleys) but also realize that change brings wonderful opportunities. However, the art (esp that I walk by often on Calif Ave) has been varied in its ability to promote the arts, engage imagination, and widen perspectives-- I will just say it: certain public installations have been ugly. With an architect father (Grad school of design, Harvard 1960's) mother as pianist/art educator, and sister who also practices architecture, I have been the only person in my family who gets confused by art. However, I also know my taste tends to be mainstream (e.g. Henry Moore, Serra, Rauschenberg, mural on side of wall near Palo Alto Sol, rotating poppies outside Sun Country market) and I hope to represent a portion of the community that enjoys learning about art, asking questions, and supports the arts while into account context, architecture/environment, budgets, and the appeal or challenge of art installations in the community.

I am Non-resident Senior Fellow at the Chicago Council on Global Affairs and serve as an Advisory Board member for the World Economic Forum’s Future of Urban and Development Services. In all of these capacities, I work closely with city governments and city-focused non-profits around the world. I am a frequent contributor to numerous publications – including CityLab and Citiscope – that cover urban design, politics and culture. Previously, I was Senior Adviser for Global Cities at the U.S. Department of State, where I led external urban diplomacy engagement, including interacting with more than fifty mayors from around the world on global challenges in their cities. Additionally, I served as Deputy U.S. Negotiator for Habitat 3, acting as the lead day-to-day negotiator for the United States in advance of the United Nations every-twenty years urban conference. Prior to those roles, I served as a Member the Secretary of State’s Policy Planning Staff, advising two Secretaries of State on an array of policy issues, including cultural exchange and public diplomacy. EDUCATION: Ph.D. in international history from Harvard University; M.A. from Oxford University in Modern History and Literature. DocuSign Envelope ID: EA0E1BC5-C6D3-42CC-B3F3-05907D849342 Employment Present or Last Employer: C40 Cities/Chicago Council on Gloabl Affairs Occupation: Consultant Describe your involvement in community activities, volunteer and civic organizations: As a diplomat and policy advisor, I had the opportunity not only to engage community leaders and civic organizations around the world, but also to advocate for them. Whether the issue was equity, sustainability or security, the recognition of the importance of public space was a shared touchstone. In my role as Senior Adviser for Global Cities, I met with local artists, architects, and designers in cities from Cairo to Surabaya. In my role as Deputy United States Negotiator for Habitat 3, I was frequently the advocacy voice in negotiations for civil society and non -governmental participation in UN processes. Community engagement, advocacy and dialogue were fundamental components of the urban -focused diplomacy 1 lead. Until 2017, I also served as the Chair for Global Cities Working Group of the Secretary's Strategic Dialogue with Civil Society. In this role, I was the primary point of contact for civic organizations seeking to engage diplomats around urban issues, including public spaces and culture. I convened representatives from U.S. cities, universities, think tanks, the private sector, and civic organizations to work together to build inclusive and sustainable cities. 1. What is it about the Public Art Commission that is compatible with your experience and of specific interest to you, and why? In my role advising city networks, I am frequently exposed to best and innovative practices from around the world. The willingness of cities to share and exchange is among their greatest qualities and competitive advantages. I have convened and hosted numerous meetings between cities, civil society actors and artistic groups — in Quito, Ecuador and London, United Kingdom, both in 2016 for instance — with the goal of facilitating exchange between cities and between cities and architects and designers. Under the series "Diplomats and Designers Discuss," (including one with Future Cities Lab, the team behind "Murmur Wall"), I host quarterly conversation between foreign policy leaders and cultural leaders about how the two groups can work together to address challenges such as climate change and economic inequality. As became clear in so much of the work the State Department does, the U.S. represents itself in myriad ways stretching way beyond public diplomacy. Palo Alto may not be a New York or Chicago on the global stage but it's an iconic name in its own way, and how it approaches public art and culture matters: here, most importantly, but ideas travel. Robert Ian Klaus Public Art Commission Application 2 of 5 DocuSign Envelope ID: EA0E1BC5-C6D3-42CC-B3F3-05907D849342 2. Please describe an issue that recently came before the Commission that is of particular interest to you and describe why you are interested in it. If you have never been to a Commission meeting you can view an archived video from the Midpen Media Center: LINK The November 16, 2017 discussion and decision around the "Bike Boulevards Pilot Project" at intersection of Louis and Fielding perfectly captures the importance of such commissions. As the presentation made clear, the intersection pilot project had numerous goals, at once seeking to enhance public safety while also seeking to deliver public art that drew "inspiration from the unique character of the community, its history and diversity." The Commission's wide-ranging discussion demonstrated why public art is at once difficult and important. It covered everything from budgeting, community engagement and durability to public safety and design aesthetics. The specific project appeals because it is in tune with so many important trends in transportation - including the increased attention to cycle routes and pedestrians and more generally multi -modal movement — but also because its development took into consideration local institutions. Like many of the commissioners, I found appeal in both proposals. But so far as future projects and decisions are concerned, I found the deliberative process itself most relevant. Commissioners worked through design, safety, community, and cultural issues (pending some review) through open dialogue and with open minds. 3. If appointed, what specific goals would you like to see the Public Art Commission achieve, and why? How Would you suggestAccomplishing this? "There are a number of goals contained in the "Municipal Arts Plan" that would be exciting to help advance. While California experiences a housing crisis, it's also important to recognize that many of Palo Alto's architectural masterpieces were created with an eye to affordability and accessibility. In addition to current and new art, adding some of these classics to artistic maps — not unlike what Palm Springs does during Modernism Week — could enhance Palo Alto's artistic reputation while also serving as a reminder of the democratic goals of the art surrounding us. While such goals are more long term, I could immediately help advance the Plan's goals around partnerships and cooperation. Section A, "New Permanent Art and Temporary Projects," and Section C, "Partnerships and Financial," make clear the importance of partnerships and collaborations, including those with other cities, domestic and international. In my role as an adviser to cities networks, I am in constant contact with other cities, cultural institutions and civil society groups focused on public spaces and art. My ongoing work would provide opportunities to forge new relationships for Palo Alto and the Public Art Commission with counterparts and artists around the country and abroad, particularly with an eye to fostering mutual respect and encouraging democratic values.

I served as chair of the commission from 2003 to 2006 and chair of Public Art Committee of the Arts Commission in 2006-2007. I also chaired the Norman Mineta San Jose International Airport Public Art Master Plan Steering Committee in 2004. I was named Metro Newspaper Public Art Person of the Year in 2004. I have served on the City of Palo Public Art Commission since June 2013 and currently serve as the vice -chair. I was co -president of the Parents Auxiliary at Children's Musical Theater of San Jose and served on the board of directors in 1991-1992 and 1997-1999. As a docent at the Japanese American Museum of San Jose, I lead tours of the museum to guests that request a guided tour. I am a volunteer Marriage Commissioner for the County of Santa Clara and have performed over 5,500 marriage ceremonies. Participated in the 2015 Delta Veterans Group Stand Down, a three day event for homeless veterans that provided meals, a place to sleep and shower, receive counseling, clothing and a sleeping bag, legal services, veterinary services, haircuts and support 1. What is it about the Public Art Commission that is compatible with your experience and of specific interest to you, and why? I have been involved in public art for over 25 years and it is a passion of mine. I believe public art is the soul of a city and great cities have great public art. The Public Art Master Plan that was recently adopted as well as the percent for public art by private development adopted four years ago provides valuable tools for public art in Palo Alto. The Master Plan provides guidance for public art for the next 5 to 10 years. The Master Plan also involves the community, a major component in public art. The percent for public art in private development is a strong partner to the municipal percent for public art and allows for a diverse, powerful and innovative public art collection.

What is it about the Public Art Commission that is compatible with your experience and of specific interest to you, and why? For me, public art reflects our society today. It brings with it touching who we are, what we are dealing with and what the community is interested in. Public art for me is a place where the viewers wants to go to see, the piece should be curious an interesting and the local community is proud to have it. These are works of art that can be simply beautiful visually, technically interesting, and intriguing to talk about. Public art should n be a meeting point for the public. That the public will have fun sitting next to watching for hours and every day enjoy the art piece as if it was their first time. My ambition in public art is to have sculptures that are just beautiful looking at, sculptures that convey messages, sculptures that tell a story and sculptures that the public will be inactive with, especially in the place where we live, Silicon Valley. I feel that the connection between art and technology, art and science is missing. My big dream is to create an icon of the Silicon Valley in Palo Alto . . . to build/ create a sculpture that is the symbol / Icon of Silicon Valley, in Palo Alto, and with the time it will be listed as one of the places that must come to visit.

If you have never been to a Commission meeting you can view an archived video from the Midpen Media Center: LINK The items above are certainly item which have been discussed during UAC meetings - and which have my attention and interest. However, here is one in particular which I believe is very important: - Electrification offers significant advantage in shifting Palo Alto toward a carbon neutral condition. However, if not executed carefully, there are pitfalls where utility reliability (heating, home functions, data) are not built -out in a robust fashion. It is very important that the UAC work with the Utility Staff to find strong compromises which execute electrification and also increase robust utility service. 3. If appointed, what specific goals would you like to see the Utilities Advisory Commission achieve, and why? How would you suggest accomplishing this? If appointed, I would like to continue work with the Utility Staff and fellow Commissioners to execute City Council strategies - particularly in the area of harmonizing electrification and building resiliency into utility services. The Utility staff are already working to arrange a work shop to focus on this topic. I would be very eager to continue work to directly contribute to discussion around the ways in which pitfalls can be identified - and strong solutions can be called out - such that the two key strategies can be completed in tandem.

Kaloma A. Smith Human Relations Commission Application 5 of 5 List relevant education, training, experience, certificates of training, licenses, or professional registration: I have a wide range of experience and training that I feel would make me very useful in the role. Here is a brief synopsis of pertinent leadership experiences: 1. I have been able to successfully lead the University A.M.E. Zion through a significant transformation and growth. When I arrived five years ago, our congregation was down to 19 active members, who were black and seniors. Today we have grown to 120 active members, and we are now a multicultural church with an average age of 32. 2. I have completed the required course of study and educational training necessary for the ordination in the African Methodist Episcopal Zion Church. The ordination criteria are eight years of denominational study and formal schooling. This training included focus on community building, interpersonal conflict resolution and more. 3. I work on the national level to address systemic societal issues. I am currently part of the leadership cadre for the March Against Racism in Washington DC on April 4 th in Washington DC to commemorate the 50th anniversary of the assassination of Martin Luther King. This march is sponsored by the National Council of Churches which represents 38 denominations, 100,000 congregations, and 45 million people. 4. I have been selected to be part of the Next Generation Leadership Cohort of World Methodist Evangelism which is part of World Methodist Council which represent 82 million people from 133 countries. 5. I am part of the Emerging Social Leader Cohort of the Peninsula Solidarity Network. I am the only clergy selected to the cohort from Santa Clara County. 6. I served as the Vice Chairperson for Ecumenical Hunger Program in East Palo Alto. Describe your involvement in community activities, volunteer and civic organizations: I am currently the Senior Pastor of the University A.M.E. Zion Church which is the oldest black church in the city of Palo Alto; this role has allowed me to connect with a wide range of community leaders and to be on the forefront of community dialogue around many issues. In the past three years I have led or participated in several initiatives to help foster a healthy conversation in our community: Community Open Forums on Race in America: After the tragic shootings at Mother Emmanuel A.M.E. Church in Charleston SC, there was a significant community outpouring of concern about race and where do we move from here. We held several community forums, which each had over 150 people in attendance. These forums allowed us to start the discussion around race and equality in our community and our country as a whole. Out of these community forums, we executed three significant initiatives; the first was the Community Unity Fair at Cubberley Community Center. We partnered with the city of Palo Alto and several local religious and civic organizations to hold a community fair that had children of different racial, ethnic, and religious backgrounds coming together to have fun. The goal was to create a space that would allow DocuSign Envelope ID: C4619C96-457B-4723-B7BF-F4E706BFF269 children meet others from different backgrounds and let them see that we are all the same. The second was viewing and discussing the movie Church. This movie dealt with white privilege and its impact on racism and implicit bias and how it impacts Palo Alto. The discussion was lively and cathartic. The third activity was a community book club that read the book "The New Jim Crow." It was a thought provoking and compelling dialogue dealing with mass incarceration and how it impacts our communities. I have also partnered with the Human Relations Committee in the planning of two initiatives in 2016 and 2017 named "Being Different Together." The original 2016 was a panel discussion and forum held at the Mitchell Park Library. I was part of the planning team along with being the moderator for that event. This event was a great success and well attended; it sparked us to ask the question, How could we continue the positive momentum and equip community leaders with tools to address implicit bias In 2017 we planned a 4 part Being Different Together." We worked with Dr. Joseph Brown from Stanford University to bring the implicit bias training that Stanford developed to the Palo Alto community. We were intentional inviting and encouraged persons from varied perspectives to be part of this community dialogue. It was terrific to have so many different views in the room. It made the discussion more meaningful and authentic. This initiative was a great success because of the positive community response. It also allowed people to be reflective of their implicit bias and it equipped them with tools to take back to their various constituency. I have also been active in promoting and developing ecumenical and interfaith connections in Palo Alto. Under my leadership, the University A.M.E. Zion Church has led our community in several activities to encourage religious tolerance. One of our events was sponsoring the 2016 Multifaith Peace Walk and Picnic to remember 9/11. The Multifaith Peace Walk started at Congregation Etz Chayim/Spark Church, then it went to University Church, followed by walking to Our Lady of the Rosary Catholic Church and concluded with American Muslim Voice hosted Peace Picnic at Mitchell Park. Each of the stops put together a brief presentation on how we can achieve peace in our society. The march was a fantastic show of solidarity in our community with over 700 participants, and over 35 community faith and civic organization represented including the Chief of Police from the city of Palo Alto. Finally, I am part of the of the Social Justice for Emerging Leader cohort for the Peninsula Solidarity Network. The Silicon Valley Foundation sponsors the Social Justice for Emerging Leader cohort. This program gathers community leaders from many faith traditions to research, discuss and dialogue with subject matter experts on issues that specifically affect our area. We have spent significant time examining issues such immigration, hyper capitalism, and housing issues. 1. What is it about the Human Relations Commission that is compatible with your experience and of specific interest to you, and why? DocuSign Envelope ID: C4619C96-457B-4723-B7BF-F4E706BFF269 Building healthy and sustainable communities is one of my passions. Whether it is in my role as Senior Pastor at University or in the Palo Alto community, I desire to build bridges and give voice to all stakeholders, equitably and efficiently. I believe this lines up with the stated purpose of the Human Relations Commission of fostering public awareness and understanding of human relations by any means. I believe the first step in any movement forward or reconciliation is an open dialogue, and it hopefully will foster compassion and communication for all parties involved. We live in very complicated times, and I believe for Palo Alto to continue to be a healthy and dynamic city, the work of the Human Relations Commission is vital. People in the community need to know there is a place where they can speak on complicated and nuanced issues we face today. 2. Please describe an issue that recently came before the Commission that is of particular interest to you and describe why you are interested in it. If you have never been to a Commission meeting you can view an archive: The March 8th meeting of the Human Relations Commission dealt with the issue of Palo Alto Police Field Based Video Policy. I believe this is one of the most critical issues in modern policing. The use of these technologies adds a layer of accountability and protection to the police officers. It's important that our city has a comprehensive policy in place to protect its citizens and employees. In today's modern political climate policing incidents can be significant flashpoints and having video evidence can hopefully allow for more clarity in the investigation of these incidents. 3. If appointed, what specific goals would you like to see the Human Relations Commission achieve, and why? How would you suggest accomplishing this? Palo Alto is indeed a global city, attracting people from all over the world. Our diversity is one of our greatest strengths, but it is an underutilized resource. Many people in Palo Alto have limited community based around work, ethnic groups or children activities. We as a city need to find ways to encourage and build deeper relationships based on the fact that we are all Palo Alto residents. We need to find ways to help those who are new to the community to dive into the deep end and connect with others. We also need to find ways to encourage longtime residents to be more receptive and accepting of newcomers. If I have the honor of being on the Human Relations Commission, my goal would be to develop resolutions, events, programs, and initiatives to encourage broader community in the city we call home.

Most relevant is my appointment to two City Commissions. In my term on the HRC, I have promoted diversity by leading the response to Council Resolution #9653. Currently I am working on initiatives for gender equity, gender identity, and immigrant engagement. Previously I initiated, Being Different Together, to address implicit bias. In my two terms on the LAC, I was actively involved researching and compiling the LSMAR, the strategic plan for our city libraries; communicating with neighborhoods and Council members; implementing the strategy to improve the delivery of library services. I have worked and volunteered in developing economies, with HIV/AIDS awareness, gender issues, and small/micro entrepreneurship. In one effort, I developed and delivered a program of basic business training for the poorest of the poor and HIV/AIDS awareness moving individuals from subsistence level to economic well-being. 1. What is it about the Human Relations Commission that is compatible with your experience and of specific interest to you, and why? The Human Relations Commission provides an avenue, for me, to be involved in the promotion of civic values on my home turf. My hope for Palo Alto is that the resources and infrastructure exist to give a diverse population a fair chance and a framework to act on his/her own initiative. My professional and volunteer experience give evidence, I hope, to the planning, implementation, and collaboration skills I would bring to the Human Relations Commission. My interest in the Commission is broad. I am proud to live in Palo Alto. It is important to me that, as the city grows, we continue to care for diverse populations and budget to provide human services. Going forward, I do have specific interest in affordable housing and supporting socio-economic diversity. Even now, we are a community in change. Some voices are unheard. The HRC can bring attention and focus to these voices. The HRC can prioritize and provide visibility to the agencies with expertise serving diverse segments.

Please describe an issue that recently came before the Commission that is of particular interest to you and describe why you are interested in it. If you have never been to a Commission meeting you can view an archived video from the Midpen Media Center: LINK Commission development is one issue, which I would like to foster. Commission appointment is frequently the entry to civic service. Appointees may or may not be familiar with the city, how the city operates, the resources available, the resources unavailable. The HRC meets once a month, effectively one planning meeting and 11 monthly meetings. There really isn't time to come up to speed. The newly appointed Commissioner has to come in running. The HRC, when fully staffed, has seven Commissioners and access to professional staff, who have a full complement of responsibilities beyond the HRC. The work plan needs everyone participating at full capacity. A formalized approach to the Commission's authority, processes, city information resources, and community partners could assist both new Commissioners and standing Commissioners to function optimally. 3. If appointed, what specific goals would you like to see the Human Relations Commission achieve, and why? How would you suggest accomplishing this? My goals for the HRC would be (1)to be an efficient and well -running Commission and (2)to address diversity in Palo Alto. For the first, . Formalize Commission operating procedures • Provide for Commission Development For the second, • Continue to satisfactory endpoints those diverse, supportive, inclusive and protective initiatives started, for example, - Collaborate with the County to provide meaningful support services for LGBTQ community - Make meaningful steps towards gender equity - Explore the need for a leadership training for new immigrants - With local partners, explore Welcome America programming •Add initiatives to the FY2019 work plan, or e.ainle establish Human a ions Commission Application Mtpd§WesiWng and allied services as priorities, that is, to 3 of 5 identify where we can make the most significant enhancements in the nrnvicinn of hniicinrr and cnnnnrt to fully inrnrnnrata thncP whn lives Human Relations Commission Application 4 of 5 4.

He is known amongst his visual peers as "Gadaay/GodEye". Djibril, well connected in the artistic world, embarked on many exhibitions and competitions in Europe to share his work through his popular art collection known as "My Colored City" where he pushes the envelope of the Senegalese street art and the talents that play a great part such as graffiti artists, hip hop activists and ambassadors of the urban culture. Djibril Drame is among the pioneers and activists in the urban community who have traveled internationally due to his striking talents and captivating photography. While still conducting his own blog "www.peuplesenegalais.net" where he makes time to help expose the dynamics of the young Senegalese change makers locally and abroad about captivating topics we face in the Senegalese daily life and bringing light to social issues. Gadaay hardly entered photography in 2007, shortly after to participate as one of the youngest artistic photographer in the book "Dakar Emoi" editions of Vives Voix. Right after this project, he joined the daily popular newspaper L'As where he hosted for one year a section of photographs called "A picture is worth 1000 words." In 2010, his art is exported internationally, where he represented Senegal in an international event of contemporary art at the GRAFFRICA Festival (Las Palmas), in 2011 at the Festival of the City of Tarifa (Spain) and so many more. GodEye is among a creative network of trendsetters and young artists in Senegal, in their own right, whether it be fashion, visual art, communications, dance or entrepreneurship. Down the line, GodEye aims to continue to share his expertise and experience by giving back to his community with the creation of his Visual Art & Communications Academy.

Please describe an issue that recently came before the Commission that is of particular interest to you and describe why you are interested in it. If you have never been to a Commission meeting you can view an archived video from the Midpen Media Center: LINK The recently presented issue of particular interest to me is the art in private development project associated with the Bowman School project — the proposal by Kamau Amu Patton is a well conceived program design that includes the participation of students. With my background creating a recognized model for teaching youth art in Art -Bytes, this aligns with my beliefs that community- driven, especially youth driven public art is a central axis of life-long learning which allows a public program to focus on building and sustaining a healthy diverse experience while providing a framework for proactively responding to a changing cultural landscape. By advancing the arts in combination with creative and comprehensive systems of problem - solving, the social epidemics that drain our country's resources can be minimized. Art heals by bringing clarity and understanding to a society. Most important to my belief is that art is effective in solving larger community problems, facilitating educational objectives, redefining relationships between various community sectors and creating new avenues for a "shared community vision." 3. If appointed, what specific goals would you like to see the Public Art Commission achieve, and why? How would you suggest accomplishing this? Having directed an international arts organization for over 14 years as well as being a licensed investment advisor has afforded me the experience and knowledge as expert in financial analysis and arts management. I would like to see the Public Art Commission achieve not only financial sustainability for the public art program but also to initiate greater economic development through this program. This can be accomplished in a variety of ways, all of which improve the quality of life for a community. A few selected avenues could include: 1. Recognizing cultural assets to enhance Cultural Tourism 2. Increased social media communication, ie a virtual tour of the City's art collection, etc. 3. Outreach and marketing community assets to attract local business engagement/investment emphasizing a multiplier effect. 4. Making connections between sectors, inside and outside the local community.

What is it about the Public Art Commission that is compatible with your experience and of specific interest to you, and why? We have been lucky to be a part of the Palo Alto community since we moved to 345 Sheridan Ave Apt 204 in 1996; since then we have also lived in a condo and now in midtown on Kipling Street. We have seen Palo Alto develop as it probably always has and will continue to, and we mourn the loss of certain small businesses and familiar faces (e.g. businesses on Calif Ave when it was lined by large shady trees, independent book stores, family -run bowling alleys) but also realize that change brings wonderful opportunities. However, the art (esp that I walk by often on Calif Ave) has been varied in its ability to promote the arts, engage imagination, and widen perspectives-- I will just say it: certain public installations have been ugly. With an architect father (Grad school of design, Harvard 1960's) mother as pianist/art educator, and sister who also practices architecture, I have been the only person in my family who gets confused by art. However, I also know my taste tends to be mainstream (e.g. Henry Moore, Serra, Rauschenberg, mural on side of wall near Palo Alto Sol, rotating poppies outside Sun Country market) and I hope to represent a portion of the community that enjoys learning about art, asking questions, and supports the arts while into account context, architecture/environment, budgets, and the appeal or challenge of art installations in the community.

I am Non-resident Senior Fellow at the Chicago Council on Global Affairs and serve as an Advisory Board member for the World Economic Forum’s Future of Urban and Development Services. In all of these capacities, I work closely with city governments and city-focused non-profits around the world. I am a frequent contributor to numerous publications – including CityLab and Citiscope – that cover urban design, politics and culture. Previously, I was Senior Adviser for Global Cities at the U.S. Department of State, where I led external urban diplomacy engagement, including interacting with more than fifty mayors from around the world on global challenges in their cities. Additionally, I served as Deputy U.S. Negotiator for Habitat 3, acting as the lead day-to-day negotiator for the United States in advance of the United Nations every-twenty years urban conference. Prior to those roles, I served as a Member the Secretary of State’s Policy Planning Staff, advising two Secretaries of State on an array of policy issues, including cultural exchange and public diplomacy. EDUCATION: Ph.D. in international history from Harvard University; M.A. from Oxford University in Modern History and Literature. DocuSign Envelope ID: EA0E1BC5-C6D3-42CC-B3F3-05907D849342 Employment Present or Last Employer: C40 Cities/Chicago Council on Gloabl Affairs Occupation: Consultant Describe your involvement in community activities, volunteer and civic organizations: As a diplomat and policy advisor, I had the opportunity not only to engage community leaders and civic organizations around the world, but also to advocate for them. Whether the issue was equity, sustainability or security, the recognition of the importance of public space was a shared touchstone. In my role as Senior Adviser for Global Cities, I met with local artists, architects, and designers in cities from Cairo to Surabaya. In my role as Deputy United States Negotiator for Habitat 3, I was frequently the advocacy voice in negotiations for civil society and non -governmental participation in UN processes. Community engagement, advocacy and dialogue were fundamental components of the urban -focused diplomacy 1 lead. Until 2017, I also served as the Chair for Global Cities Working Group of the Secretary's Strategic Dialogue with Civil Society. In this role, I was the primary point of contact for civic organizations seeking to engage diplomats around urban issues, including public spaces and culture. I convened representatives from U.S. cities, universities, think tanks, the private sector, and civic organizations to work together to build inclusive and sustainable cities. 1. What is it about the Public Art Commission that is compatible with your experience and of specific interest to you, and why? In my role advising city networks, I am frequently exposed to best and innovative practices from around the world. The willingness of cities to share and exchange is among their greatest qualities and competitive advantages. I have convened and hosted numerous meetings between cities, civil society actors and artistic groups — in Quito, Ecuador and London, United Kingdom, both in 2016 for instance — with the goal of facilitating exchange between cities and between cities and architects and designers. Under the series "Diplomats and Designers Discuss," (including one with Future Cities Lab, the team behind "Murmur Wall"), I host quarterly conversation between foreign policy leaders and cultural leaders about how the two groups can work together to address challenges such as climate change and economic inequality. As became clear in so much of the work the State Department does, the U.S. represents itself in myriad ways stretching way beyond public diplomacy. Palo Alto may not be a New York or Chicago on the global stage but it's an iconic name in its own way, and how it approaches public art and culture matters: here, most importantly, but ideas travel.

Please describe an issue that recently came before the Commission that is of particular interest to you and describe why you are interested in it. If you have never been to a Commission meeting you can view an archived video from the Midpen Media Center: LINK The November 16, 2017 discussion and decision around the "Bike Boulevards Pilot Project" at intersection of Louis and Fielding perfectly captures the importance of such commissions. As the presentation made clear, the intersection pilot project had numerous goals, at once seeking to enhance public safety while also seeking to deliver public art that drew "inspiration from the unique character of the community, its history and diversity." The Commission's wide-ranging discussion demonstrated why public art is at once difficult and important. It covered everything from budgeting, community engagement and durability to public safety and design aesthetics. The specific project appeals because it is in tune with so many important trends in transportation - including the increased attention to cycle routes and pedestrians and more generally multi -modal movement — but also because its development took into consideration local institutions. Like many of the commissioners, I found appeal in both proposals. But so far as future projects and decisions are concerned, I found the deliberative process itself most relevant. Commissioners worked through design, safety, community, and cultural issues (pending some review) through open dialogue and with open minds. 3. If appointed, what specific goals would you like to see the Public Art Commission achieve, and why? How Would you suggestAccomplishing this? "There are a number of goals contained in the "Municipal Arts Plan" that would be exciting to help advance. While California experiences a housing crisis, it's also important to recognize that many of Palo Alto's architectural masterpieces were created with an eye to affordability and accessibility. In addition to current and new art, adding some of these classics to artistic maps — not unlike what Palm Springs does during Modernism Week — could enhance Palo Alto's artistic reputation while also serving as a reminder of the democratic goals of the art surrounding us. While such goals are more long term, I could immediately help advance the Plan's goals around partnerships and cooperation. Section A, "New Permanent Art and Temporary Projects," and Section C, "Partnerships and Financial," make clear the importance of partnerships and collaborations, including those with other cities, domestic and international. In my role as an adviser to cities networks, I am in constant contact with other cities, cultural institutions and civil society groups focused on public spaces and art. My ongoing work would provide opportunities to forge new relationships for Palo Alto and the Public Art Commission with counterparts and artists around the country and abroad, particularly with an eye to fostering mutual respect and encouraging democratic values.

I have been involved in public art for over 25 years and it is a passion of mine. I believe public art is the soul of a city and great cities have great public art. The Public Art Master Plan that was recently adopted as well as the percent for public art by private development adopted four years ago provides valuable tools for public art in Palo Alto. The Master Plan provides guidance for public art for the next 5 to 10 years. The Master Plan also involves the community, a major component in public art. The percent for public art in private development is a strong partner to the municipal percent for public art and allows for a diverse, powerful and innovative public art collection.

I worked with the Silicon Valley Mosaic artists to donate a mosaic wall for one of the parks for the city of Los Alto. 1. What is it about the Public Art Commission that is compatible with your experience and of specific interest to you, and why? For me, public art reflects our society today. It brings with it touching who we are, what we are dealing with and what the community is interested in. Public art for me is a place where the viewers wants to go to see, the piece should be curious an interesting and the local community is proud to have it. These are works of art that can be simply beautiful visually, technically interesting, and intriguing to talk about. Public art should n be a meeting point for the public. That the public will have fun sitting next to watching for hours and every day enjoy the art piece as if it was their first time. My ambition in public art is to have sculptures that are just beautiful looking at, sculptures that convey messages, sculptures that tell a story and sculptures that the public will be inactive with, especially in the place where we live, Silicon Valley. I feel that the connection between art and technology, art and science is missing. My big dream is to create an icon of the Silicon Valley in Palo Alto . . . to build/ create a sculpture that is the symbol / Icon of Silicon Valley, in Palo Alto, and with the time it will be listed as one of the places that must come to visit.

If you have never been to a Commission meeting you can view an archived video from the Midpen Media Center: LINK The items above are certainly item which have been discussed during UAC meetings - and which have my attention and interest. However, here is one in particular which I believe is very important: - Electrification offers significant advantage in shifting Palo Alto toward a carbon neutral condition. However, if not executed carefully, there are pitfalls where utility reliability (heating, home functions, data) are not built -out in a robust fashion. It is very important that the UAC work with the Utility Staff to find strong compromises which execute electrification and also increase robust utility service. 3. If appointed, what specific goals would you like to see the Utilities Advisory Commission achieve, and why? How would you suggest accomplishing this? If appointed, I would like to continue work with the Utility Staff and fellow Commissioners to execute City Council strategies - particularly in the area of harmonizing electrification and building resiliency into utility services. The Utility staff are already working to arrange a work shop to focus on this topic. I would be very eager to continue work to directly contribute to discussion around the ways in which pitfalls can be identified - and strong solutions can be called out - such that the two key strategies can be completed in tandem.

Henry Wong Utilities Advisory Commission Application 5 of 5 City of Palo Alto (ID # 8971) City Council Staff Report Report Type: Consent Calendar Meeting Date: 4/2/2018 City of Palo Alto Page 1 Summary Title: Adoption of a Resolution to Apply for a Grant from the California Natural Resources Agency Title: Adoption of a Resolution Approving the Submission and Management of a $162,000 Grant to the California Natural Resources Agency for Baylands Boardwalk and Trail Signage and Interpretation From: City Manager Lead Department: Community Services Recommendation Staff recommends that Council authorize: 1) Staff to submit an application for an Outdoor Environmental Education Facility grant through the California Department of Parks and Recreation; and 2) The City Manager or his designee from the Community Services Department to manage the grant, including submission of the grant, reports, and requests for reimbursement. 3) Adoption of the attached resolution to ensure that the applicant has reviewed the grant application and grant contract and agrees to all language within both documents. Executive Summary If approved, staff intends to re-submit a grant to the California Department of Parks and Recreation to fund interpretive signage, interactive exhibits, and public art to bring Palo Alto residents into the Baylands Nature Preserve and engage them in interpretive experiences on the reconstructed Baylands Boardwalk and nearby trails. The re- submittal is necessary to update an incorrect project name in the Council-approved Resolution. Background Baylands Interpretive Grants On August 28, 2017 Council approved Resolution #9707 for for a grant application to the Calfornia Resources Agency; however, that resolution included an incorrect project name (“California Dinosaur Garden”). A new resolution with the correct project name, “Bridging Communities by Caring for a Salt Marsh”, must be approved by City Council to City of Palo Alto Page 2 complete the grant application. (There are no other changes to the resolution or grant application.) An approval of this request would direct staff to submit a grant requesting funds for the fabrication and installation of interpretive exhibits on the boardwalk and adjacent trails. The signage and exhibits will improve visitor experience and engagment on the trail between Palo Alto’s Nature Center and East Palo Alto’s Cooley Landing Education Center. The Baylands Nature Center and Boardwalk are undergoing renovations and restoration. Improvements to the Lucy Evans Nature Interpretive Center (Nature Center) were completed in April 2017. In the winter of 2018, the adjoining 865 -foot- long boardwalk, closed to the public in 2014, will be rebuilt to increase structural integrity and to improve access for people with disabilities. Discussion In 2017, the Baylands Nature Center Exhibit CIP funded the consulting firm of S2 Associates to develop a concept-level plan for interpretive signage on the Boardwalk and Adjacent trails and provided a cost estimate for the interpretive elements. This planning effort dovetails with other preserve-wide interpretive planning underway as part of the Baylands Comprehensive Environmental Management Plan. Future signage located on the trails would follow the preserve’s standards and be mounted on posts as called out in the Design Guidelines for the Palo Alto Baylands Nature Preserve. Resource Impact Two Capital Improvement Program projects, Baylands Boardwalk Improvements (PE- 14018) and Baylands Flood Protection Levee Improvements (PE-17006), are addressing the structural and code compliance issues with the Nature Center and boardwalk, and the Baylands Nature Interpretive Center Exhibit Improvements (AC-14001) project is providing interpretive signage for the Nature Center deck. Funds ($56,000) allocated to this project, however, are insufficient to provide interpretive signage exhibits on the boardwalk and nearby trails. The project budget is $216,000, of which $162,000 is sought from this grant and $54,000 from other donations. Any request for additional funding, if necessary, will require Council approval. Environmental Review The subject project for this grant has been assessed in accordance with the authority and criteria contained in the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), the State CEQA Guidelines, and the environmental regulations of the City. Specifically, the City of Palo Alto Page 3 proposed project is exempt from the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act in accordance with CEQA Guidelines Section 15311 (accessory structures).

Adopt a Resolution (Attachment A) to amend the Downtown Residential Preferential Parking Program Resolution No. 9671, reducing the number of employee permits and making other clarifying changes (tracked in Attachment A); B. Direct staff to make corresponding changes to the Administrative Guidelines for the residential preferential parking programs; and C. Find these actions exempt from the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Sections 15061(b)(3) and 15301 (Existing Facilities) of Title 14 of the California Code of Regulations. Background and Discussion On February 26, 2018 the City Council received a report on the Downtown Residential Preferential Parking Program and requested that staff return with an amended resolution to reduce the number of employee parking permits to 1,000 with another 100 held in reserve. The staff report can be found at https://www.cityofpaloalto.org/civicax/filebank/documents/63524 and the meeting minutes can be found at https://www.cityofpaloalto.org/civicax/filebank/documents/63867 . The proposed Resolution would make the change consistent with the Council’s request. The Resolution also includes minor modifications to expressly reference the Municipal Fee Schedule as the mechanism through which Downtown RPP fees are adjusted. City of Palo Alto Page 2 Policy Implications Regulating parking is consistent with the City’s three -pronged approach to reduce traffic and parking demand. In addition, the Downtown RPP program addresses the following Comprehensive Plan policies:  Policy T-5.2 Continue to implement a comprehensive program of parking supply and demand management strategies citywide to optimize the use of existing parking spaces.  Policy T-5.11 Work to protect residential areas from parki ng impacts of nearby businesses and uses, recognizing that fully addressing some existing intrusions may take time.  Policy B-2.3 Recognize that employers, businesses and neighborhoods share many values and concerns, including traffic and parking issues and preserving Palo Alto’s livability, and need to work together with a priority on neighborhood quality of life. Resource Impact Based on most recent employee permit sales information, approving this amendment is expected to reduce employee permit sales by approximately 90 employee permits per sales period. This reduction in permit sales is anticipated to decrease revenue by approximately $44,154 annually. Staff intends to bring forward a proposal to align revenue estimates as part of the annual budget process. Timeline Staff has held employee permits back in anticipation of this resolution’s approval. Effectively, this means that the new cap on employee permits will be in place beginning April 1, 2018 . Environmental Review This program is exempt from the requirements of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant to Section 15061(b)(3) of Title 14 of the California Code of Regulations since it can be seen with certainty that there is no possibility the adoption and implementation of this program may have a significant effect on the environment and Section 15301 in that this proposed resolution will have a minor impact on existing facilities. Attachments: Attachment A: Reso Amending and Restating the Downtown RPP Program (PDF) 1 Resolution No. ____ Resolution of the Council of the City of Palo Alto Amending Resolution 9671 that Established the Downtown Residential Preferential Parking District (RPP) Program as a Continuing Program to Modify the Number of Employee Parking Permits Available and to Restate the Downtown RPP District Program Provisions R E C I T A L S A. California Vehicle Code Section 22507 authorizes the establishment, by city council action, of permit parking programs in residential neighborhoods for residents and other categories of parkers. B. A stakeholders group comprised of Downtown residents and business interests was convened to discuss the implementation of Residential Preferential Parking Districts (RPP Districts). C. On December 15, 2015 the Council adopted Ordinance No. 5294, adding Chapter 10.50 to Title 10 (Vehicles and Traffic) of the Palo Municipal Code. This Chapter establishes the citywide procedures for RPP Districts in the city. D. On December 1, 2014, the Council adopted Resolution No. 9473 implementing the Downtown Residential Preferential Parking Pilot Program in two phases, and on February 23, 2016, the Council adopted Resolution No. 9577 updating the process for implementing the second phase. E. On March 6, 2017 the Council adopted Resolution No. 9671 to end the pilot phase and implement the Downtown Residential Preferential Parking Program as a continuing program. F. It is the goal of the City to reduce the impacts of nonresident overflow parking from the Downtown Commercial District on the surrounding neighborhoods. G. The Council desires to amend Resolution 9671 to reduce the number of employee parking permits that may be issued. NOW, THEREFORE, the Council of the City of Palo Alto RESOLVES, as follows: SECTION 1. Findings. The criteria set forth in Section 10.50.030 of the Palo Alto Municipal Code for annexing the areas described in 3.A of this Resolution as part of the Downtown Residential Preferential Parking Program District have been met as follows: (1) That nonresident vehicles do, or may, substantially interfere with the use of onstreet or alley parking spaces by neighborhood residents, in that based on observation there are few available parking spaces available midday, while 2 the streets are relatively unoccupied at midnight thus demonstrating the parking intrusion is largely by nonresidents. (2) That the interference by the nonresident vehicles occurs at regular and frequent intervals, either daily or weekly, in that the parking intrusion is contained to the daytime hours during the regular workweek. (3) That the nonresident vehicles parked in the area of the proposed district create traffic congestion, noise, or other disruption (including shortage of parking spaces for residents and their visitors) that disrupts neighborhood life, in that based on information from residents and other city departments the vehicle congestion is interfering with regular activities. (4) Other alternative parking strategies are not feasible or practical in that the City has implemented a series of alternative parking strategies in the past and concurrently and there is still a shortage of parking available SECTION 2. Duration and Issuance of Permits. The following provisions shall apply to the Downtown Residential Preferential Parking Program District: A. Resident Parking Permits.

On December 1, 2014, the Council adopted Resolution No. 9473 implementing the Downtown Residential Preferential Parking Pilot Program in two phases, and on February 23, 2016, the Council adopted Resolution No. 9577 updating the process for implementing the second phase. E. On March 6, 2017 the Council adopted Resolution No. 9671 to end the pilot phase and implement the Downtown Residential Preferential Parking Program as a continuing program. F.

Findings. The criteria set forth in Section 10.50.030 of the Palo Alto Municipal Code for annexing the areas described in 3.A of this Resolution as part of the Downtown Residential Preferential Parking Program District have been met as follows: (1) That non-resident vehicles do, or may, substantially interfere with the use of on -street or alley parking spaces by neighborhood residents, in that based on observation there are few available parking spaces available midday, while 1 the streets are relatively unoccupied at midnight thus demonstrating the parking intrusion is largely bynon-residents. (2) That the interference by the non-resident vehicles occurs at regular and frequent intervals, either daily or weekly, in that the parking intrusion is contained to the daytime hours during the regularworkweek. That the non-resident vehicles parked in the area of the proposed district create traffic congestion, noise, or other disruption (including shortage of parking spaces for residents and their visitors) that disrupts neighborhood life, in that based on information from residents and other city departments the vehicle congestion is interfering with regular activities.

This ordinance will return to the Council on second reading in accordance with state law. Background In the most recent MOA with SEIU and the compensation plan for MGMT (approved by the City Council April 2016), provisions were included for employees to accept a greater share of City of Palo Alto Page 2 pension costs to assist in curtailing the City’s growing pension expense. While Council has already approved these provisions in the MOA and Compensation Plan, approval of this resolution to amend the pension contracts is an administrative step required by CalPERS. The pension cost sharing agreement includes a phase-in schedule for the employee pick-up of the employer contribution. This chart outlines the total employee share over the current MOA and Compensation Plan term (all ending by the close of calendar year 2018): Employee share of CalPERS Employer Contribution Following council approval of this contract amendment with CalPERS Total contribution over the course of the current MOA/Compensation Plan IAFF completed 3.00% FCA completed 3.00% PAPOA completed 3.00% PAPMA completed 3.00% SEIU second 0.50% 1.00% Management and Professional 0.50% 1.00% UMPAPA* 0.00% N/A *No current agreement for a cost share of the CalPERS Employer contribution has been reached with the Utilities Management group at this time. Discussion The first step in the process is for the Council to adopt a Resolution of Intent and conduct a first reading of the ordinance amending the California Public Employees Retirement System (CalPERS) contract. An amendment to the contract, which changes the employees’ rate of contribution, requires a secret ballot election among the employees affected. Th is election must follow adoption of the Resolution of Intention and precede adoption of the final documents. The final ordinance will return to Council for approval of the second reading and adoption on May 7, 2018. The contract amendment will become effective during the payroll period 31 days after this ordinance is adopted. With the employer contribution of pension costs continuing to rise, it was in the City’s best interest to negotiate a cost share arrangement with all bargaining units and implement for the non-represented groups as well. Although the cost share arrangements have already been agreed upon through the MOA/Compensation Plan, CalPERS requires this administrative step for Council to adopt a resolution in order to amend the pension contract s. This amendment seeks to bring the CalPERS contract in alignment with the current adopted MOA/Compensation Plan. City of Palo Alto Page 3 Policy Implications This recommendation supports the City Council’s goal of reducing pension costs to the City and is consistent with existing City policies. Resource Impact Per the adopted MOA term and Compensation Plan, the employee contribution to CalPERS employer contribution as outlined in this staff report is anticipated to save approximately $410,000 annually across all funds, of which $200,000 would be in the General Fund. This savings is factored into the development of the annual budget process per the terms in the MOUs.

City of Palo Alto (ID # 9024) City Council Staff Report Report Type: Consent Calendar Meeting Date: 4/2/2018 City of Palo Alto Page 1 Summary Title: Water Leak Bill Adjustments Title: Adoption of a Resolution Amending Utility Rule and Regulation 11 (Billing, Adjustments and Payment of Bills) to Update the City's Bill Adjustment Process for Water Leaks and Metering Errors From: City Manager Lead Department: Utilities RECOMMENDATION Staff, the Utilities Advisory Commission (UAC), and the Finance Committee recommend that the City Council adopt a resolution amending Utility Rule and Regulation 11 “Billing, Adjustments, and Payment of Bills” to update the City’s bill adjustment processes for higher than average bills caused by water leaks and metering or billing errors. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Since 2006 the Water Utility has specified that all consumption of metered water is the financial responsibility of the account-holder, a policy created to encourage users to maintain their domestic and irrigation water lines and to minimize water waste. Re-activation of irrigation systems after the drought triggered an increase in the number of non-visible water leaks, and impacted some account-holders’ water bills, from modest to very large amounts. These water leak bill increases can be unknown to account -holders for days or weeks because water meters are read and billed at 27 -33 calendar-day intervals. At the UAC public meetings in July and November 2017, water account-holders, the UAC, and staff discussed alternative policy designs that could: a) still make account -holders responsible for repairing their leaks, b) consider incorporating alternative water leak policies of other water agencies, and c) maintain the fiscal health of the Water Utility. Staff presented a draft revision of Rule 11 to the UAC on December 6, 2017, which discussed and voted 5 -0 (with 2 absent) (UAC Final Minutes of 12-6-17 Meeting) to recommend that proposal for Council approval). On February 20, 2018, the Finance Committee (Staff Report ID#8873) discussed the staff proposal, suggested clarifications, and voted 4-0 to recommend the proposal for Council approval (Excerpted draft minutes of 2-20-18 Finance Committee meeting). BACKGROUND City of Palo Alto Page 2 When water leaks occur on the account-holder’s side of the meter, the Utilities Department encourages users to investigate whether their homeowner insurance policy covers the costs associated with leaks, related to both water damage and the cost of water consumption. Utilities staff then works with account-holders to address financial hardship from higher-than- normal water bills by creating mutually agreeable payment arrangements to spread payments over extended periods. The current Utilities Rule and Regulation 11, “Billing, Adjustments and Payments of Bills” was adopted by Council on May 9, 2006 (CMR: 219:06). The proposed changes cover the following two sections of Rule 11: Section L. WATER OR GAS LEAK CREDITS (from 5-9-2006 to present) It is the Customer’s responsibility to maintain their lines and equipment in a reasonable condition such that leaks do not occur. CPAU shall not make billing adjustments for Water, Gas or Wastewater Charges resulting from leakage in a line on the Customer Premises beyond the CPAU Meter, unless CPAU determines that City staff was solely responsible for such leakage. Section I: METERED SERVICE BILLING ERRORS AND ADJUSTMENTS Where a Customer has been undercharged or overcharged for metered Service, the date and cause of which can be reliably established where a customer has been undercharged or overcharged, the retroactive billing adjustment (back bill or refund) shall not exceed three years. Discussion See Attachment B for the complete proposed revision Utilities Rule and Regulation 11, “Billing, Adjustments, and Payment of Bills” Summary of Proposed Changes to Utilities Rule and Regulation 11, “Billing, Adjustments, and Payment of Bills”: a) Deletion of Natural Gas references from Rule and Regulation 11, Section L, “Water or Gas Leak Credits” b) Add new language to the renamed Section L, “Water Leak Bill Adjustments”: The General Manager of Utilities, or delegate, may approve Water leak adjustments for Customer’s Water and Wastewater Accounts (when Wastewater charges are based on Water consumption) under the following conditions: 1. Customers having higher-than-average Water consumption for a particular billing period due to leaks may request a Water and/or Wastewater Leak bill adjustment, as applicable. City of Palo Alto Page 3 2. Applications for Water and Wastewater leak bill adjustments must be submitted to the Utilities Department within 60 days from the bill’s due date, for the bill covering the period in which the higher-than- average Water consumption occurred. 3. Customers are restricted to one Water and/or Wastewater leak billing adjustment in each 36-month period. 4. Higher-than-average Water consumption is defined as the volume of water greater than 100% of the Customer’s normal consumption compared to the Customer’s historical consumption over the prior three years, calculated by CPAU using prior averages for the relevant billing period(s). 5. Leaking systems must be repaired before the Customer receives a Water or Wastewater leak bill adjustment, to ensure future bills are not impacted by the same leak. Shutting off the source of the leak is not considered a repair. Undetermined or general high water consumption is not eligible for adjustment. 6. Water leak bill adjustments will be applied to Customer bills based on the higher-than-average water volumes calculated by CPAU. Water leak bill adjustments will be applied to 50% of the calculated higher than average water volume, to a limit of $2,500, using the Tier 1 Commodity Rate cost of the appropriate residential or commercial Water Rate Schedule. 7. Wastewater bill adjustments related to Water leaks will be made based upon the adjusted Water volume, and are not included in the $2,500 Water leak bill adjustment limit. 8. Utility User Tax (UUT) billing adjustments related to Water leaks will be made based upon the adjusted Water volume and are not included in the $2,500 Water leak bill adjustment limit. 9. Administrative decisions regarding Water and Wastewater leak bill adjustments, including eligibility, volume calculations, and adjustment costs will be made by the General Manager of Utilities, or delegate, and are final. c) Revise section 1 of Rule 11, Section I, “Metered Service Billing Errors and Adjustments” as shown, for clarity: 1. Where a Customer has been undercharged or overcharged for metered Service, the date and cause of which can be reliably established by CPAU, the retroactive billing adjustment (back bill or refund) shall not exceed three years. The maximum bill adjustment for undercharges shall be $500 per Account, per incident. d) Combine sections 2 and 3 of Rule 11, Section I, into a new section 2: City of Palo Alto Page 4 When, as a result of either a CPAU or a Customer-initiated accuracy test, an Electric or Gas Meter is found to register more than two percent (2%) fast, or a Water Meter is found to register more than one and a half percent (1.5%) fast, CPAU will refund the Customer the overcharge based upon the corrected Meter readings for the period the Meter was in use, or three years, whichever is less. Any applicable late payment will be waived. When, as a result of an accuracy test, a Customer’s Electric or Gas Meter is found not to register, or to register more than two percent (2%) slow, or if a Water Meter is found not to register, or to register more than one and half percent (1.5%) slow, CPAU may bill the Customer for the undercharge based on an average bill. The average bill will be computed based on an estimate of the Customer’s consumption during a prior month in the same season or on the consumption in the same period of the prior three years. e) Add a new section 4 to Rule 11, Section I: 4. When CPAU is the cause of an error that results in an overcharge, CPAU will refund the full amount of the overcharge, subject to the three year retroactive billing adjustment period described above. Back bills for undercharges will be calculated and approved by the General Manager of Utilities, or delegate, and may be waived over $500 per Customer Account, per incident, subject to the three year retroactive billing adjustment period described above. RESOURCE IMPACT Adoption of the staff recommendation will not impact the Gas Enterprise Fund since there has never been a gas leak bill adjustment made under this policy, and the gas leak adjustment language is recommended to be removed from Rule and Regulation 11. Water leaks that have been identified, repaired, and submitted to the Utilities Department for adjustment in Fiscal Year (FY) 2017 -2018 , prior to adoption of this amend ment of Rule 11, will be eligible for water leak adjustments when meeting the approved conditions. The staff recommendation to amend the water leak bill adjustment policy could result in financial losses to the Water and Wastewater Funds, depending on eligible leak frequency and the number of customers seeking bill adjustments. The cost to the Water Utility during the last full fiscal year under the prior policy, when water leak adjustments were offered to account- holders (FY 2004-2005), was $50,000. City of Palo Alto Page 5 Adoption of the staff recommendation is projected to result in negligible financial losses to the General Fund’s Utility User Tax (UUT) revenue. Adoption of the staff recommendation for new language in Section I (4) of Rule 11, “Metered Service and Billing Errors”, fully refunding overcharges and capping back bills for undercharges at $500, subject to the three year retroactive billing period, is not projected to result in significant revenue losses for metered services. POLICY IMPLICATIONS The current Utilities Department policy for the water and gas adjustments for leaks was approved by Council in 2006. Council adoption of the recommended changes would become effective immediately upon adoption and retroactive to July 1, 2017. ENVIRONMENTAL REVIEW Council adoption of changes to the Utilities Rules and Regulation 11 (Billing Adjustments and Payment of Bills) is not a project requiring California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) review, under Public Resources Code Section 21065 and CEQA Guidelines Section 15378(b)(5), because it is an administrative governmental activity which will not cause a direct or indirect physical change in the environment.

By Property Managers completing a “Revert to Owner (RTO) Agreement” in order to maintain utility service to units during the interim period between tenants. C. BUDGET BILLING PAYMENT PROGRAM The Budget Billing Payment Program establishes equalized monthly payments and is available to all Residential Customers who qualify as set forth below: 1. Customers may join the Budget Billing Payment Program at any time providing the Customer Account balance is zero and the Customer has not been previously removed from the Budget Billing Program for non-payment. 2. A Customer electing to utilize the program shall agree to make monthly payments based on CPAU’s forward estimate of the Customers’ Charges for the subsequent twelve-month period. 3. CPAU does not guarantee that the total actual Charges will not exceed, or be less than, its original estimate. Customers should review their Account on an ongoing basis and request changes to the budget billing amount in response to changes in their household usage. CPAU may require that Customers pay a revised monthly amount as a condition to continuing participation in the plan, if CPAU determines that substantial changes in Customer usage patterns or consumption has occurred. 4. CPAU will perform an annual true-up on Customer Budget Billing Accounts every twelve months. This will result in either a Customer credit for CPAU over-collection or an outstanding balance due from the Customer for under-collection by CPAU during the prior twelve months. D. DISCONTINUANCE OF BUDGET BILLING BILLING, ADJUSTMENTS AND PAYMENT OF BILLS DRAFT RULE AND REGULATION 11 CITY OF PALO ALTO UTILITIES RULES AND REGULATIONS Issued by the City Council Effective 6-27-20168 Sheet No 3 The Customer’s Budget Billing Payment Program shall remain in effect, subject to review of the monthly payment amount, and shall terminate when: 1. The Customer notifies CPAU to terminate participation in the Budget Billing Program; 2. CPAU notifies the Customer of the termination of its Budget Billing Payment Program: 3. The Customer no longer takes Service at the Premises; or 4. The Customer owes an amount of two or more monthly payments. However, if the Customer eliminates the delinquency, removal from the program will not occur. Upon termination of either Utility Service or participation in the Budget Billing Payment Program, any amount owed by the Customer for actual Charges shall immediately become due and payable or any amount due to the Customer shall be refunded or credited. E. INSUFFICIENT FUNDS FOR PAYMENT 1. A Service Charge will be made and collected by the City of Palo Alto for each check returned by a bank to CPAU for the reason of insufficient funds in accordance with Rate Schedule C-1. 2.

Bills for Utility Services will be prepared for each Billing Period in accordance with the applicable Rate Schedules or CPAU contract applicable to the Premises served. 2. Proration is intended to produce a uniform average unit cost for the commodity regardless of the number of days in the Service period. Services will be prorated if the number of actual Service days differs from the number of days in the applicable Billing Period. Electric Demand (kW) and Electric Power Factor Charges will not be prorated. Proration will not occur for those Rate Schedules that contain Meter fees, connection fees, deposits, and other miscellaneous fees.

G. DELINQUENT BILLS AND LATE PAYMENT CHARGES 1. Utilities Charges incurred in the applicable Billing Period are due and payable by the “Due Date” indicated on the front of the bill statement. Bills unpaid by the due date are delinquent and a late payment Charge will be added to the outstanding balance as specified in Rate Schedule C-1. 2. Residential and commercial Accounts having unpaid balances older than 180 days shall be subject to collection action by the City. Collection action may result in notifications to credit reporting agencies. 3. Late payment Charges may be suspended by CPAU if the Customer is withholding full or partial payment pending final resolution of disputed bill. The late payment Charge may be waived by CPAU based upon the ultimate resolution of a disputed Charge. 4. Full or partial payments towards outstanding balances will be applied to the oldest outstanding Charges. Failure to pay outstanding balances will result in late fees and termination of Service for non-payment. 5. In the event that a Customer donating to the ProjectPLEDGE Program has a delinquent bill, the late Charge percentage will not be applied to the amount of the Customer’s pledge. However, the Customer’s participation in ProjectPLEDGE will be discontinued after three consecutive Billing Periods in which the Customer has not included their pledge amount in the bill. 6. Customers whose Utility bills include payments of principal and/or interest on loans from CPAU which are secured by deeds of trust on real property shall be charged a late payment Charge when any current Utility bill includes an unpaid installment on such loan from a prior bill. Nothing in this Rule and Regulation shall be construed to alter in any way the duty of the Customer to pay any installment on a loan from CPAU when due, or to alter the rights of CPAU to enforce the payment of such installments. BILLING, ADJUSTMENTS AND PAYMENT OF BILLS DRAFT RULE AND REGULATION 11 CITY OF PALO ALTO UTILITIES RULES AND REGULATIONS Issued by the City Council Effective 6-27-20168 Sheet No 5 H. DISPUTED BILLS If bill accuracy is questioned or disputed by the Customer, Customers shall request an explanation from CPAU within the current Billing Period or as soon as reasonably possible. After reviewing the disputed bill, CPAU will: 1. Issue a corrected bill to the Customer or reflect the correction on the bill in a subsequent Billing Period. 2. Determine if an amortization period (“payment arrangement”) for the Charge-in-question shall be provided by CPAU. If a payment arrangement is offered by CPAU and agreed to by the Customer, Utility Services will not be discontinued for nonpayment while the Customer complies with the payment arrangement for the “past due” balance , and subsequent Utilities bills are paid on time during the payment arrangement period. 3. Advise the Customer that the bill is correct as presented. The Customer may choose, at the Customer’s option, to have the Meter removed for testing under the Provisions of Rule 15 “Metering” and payment of the applicable fee found in Rate Schedule C-1 “Exchange Meter for Accuracy Test”. I. METERED SERVICE BILLING ERRORS AND ADJUSTMENTS Where a Customer has been undercharged or overcharged for metered Service, the date and cause of which can be reliably established where a customer has been undercharged or overcharged, the retroactive billing adjustment (back bill or refund) shall not exceed three years. 1.

Back bills for undercharges will be determined calculated and approved by the General Manager of Utilities, or delegate, and may be waived in an amount up to $2,500 over $500 per Customer Account, per incident, subject to the three year retroactive billing adjustment period described above. J. UNMETERED SERVICE BILLING ERRORS AND ADJUSTMENTS Where a Customer has been undercharged or overcharged for unmetered Service, the date and cause of which can be reliably established where a customer has been undercharged or overcharged, the retroactive billing adjustment (back bill or refund) shall not exceed three years. K. THEFT OF SERVICE Where there is evidence that meter tampering or theft of Utility Service has occurred, CPAU will retroactively bill, and collect any underpayment or nonpayment of Charges as well as any labor or material costs related to investigating the theft and making any required corrections. The applicable period to assess Charges shall commence from the date it can be reasonably established the theft began to the date in which the underpayment was discovered and initially established. The labor and material costs related to investigating the theft will be calculated in accordance with Utility Rate Schedule C-1 and/or any other applicable Utility Rate schedules. All underpayments or non- payments shall become immediately due and payable. Customers committing theft of Utility Service may also be subject to legal action pursuant to Rule 1, California Penal Code sections 487,496, 498, BILLING, ADJUSTMENTS AND PAYMENT OF BILLS DRAFT RULE AND REGULATION 11 CITY OF PALO ALTO UTILITIES RULES AND REGULATIONS Issued by the City Council Effective 6-27-20168 Sheet No 7 591, 592, 593 and California Civil Code sections 1882 through 1882.6. Customers billed for theft of service can dispute the charges by following the process described in Rule and Regulation 11.H. If that process does not resolve the matter, customers billed for theft of service may, within thirty (30) calendar days, request (by telephone, in writing, or in person) an administrative hearing. If a hearing is requested, the city manager or his designee shall schedule a date and time for said hearing as soon as possible after the request is filed, but no later than ten (10) business days after the filing of such request for hearing. At the hearing, the customer billed for theft of service may offer evidence in person or in the form of a written statement, setting forth the reasons why the customer believes the determination of theft is incorrect. Utilities personnel shall also be allowed to offer whatever evidence they may have as to why they have established the customer engaged in utilities theft. The city manager or his designee shall make a determination as to whether the customer is liable for the charges for theft of service. L. WATER OR GAS LEAK CREDITS It is the Customer’s responsibility to maintain their lines and equipment in a reasonable condition such that leaks do not occur. CPAU shall not make billing adjustments for Water, Gas or Wastewater Charges resulting from leakage in a line on the Customer Premises beyond the CPAU Meter, unless CPAU determines that City staff were solely responsible for such leakage. The General Manager of Utilities, or delegate, may approve Water leak adjustments for Customer’s Water and Wastewater Accounts (when Wastewater charges are based on Water consumption) under the following conditions: 1. Customers having higher-than-average Water consumption for a particular billing period due to leaks may request a Water and/or Wastewater Leak bill adjustment, as applicable. 2. Applications for Water and Wastewater leak bill adjustments must be submitted to the Utilities Department within 60 days from the bill’s due date, for the bill covering the period in which the higher-than-average Water consumption occurred. 3. Customers are restricted to one Water and/or Wastewater leak billing adjustment in each 36-month period. 4. Higher-than-average Water consumption is defined as the volume of water greater than 100% of the Customer’s normal consumption compared to the Customer’s historical BILLING, ADJUSTMENTS AND PAYMENT OF BILLS DRAFT RULE AND REGULATION 11 CITY OF PALO ALTO UTILITIES RULES AND REGULATIONS Issued by the City Council Effective 6-27-20168 Sheet No 8 consumption over the prior three years, calculated by CPAU using prior averages for the relevant billing period(s). 5. Leaking systems must be repaired before the Customer receives a Water or Wastewater leak bill adjustment, to ensure future bills are not impacted by the same leak. Shutting off the source of the leak is not considered a repair. Undetermined or general high water consumption is not eligible for adjustment. 6. Water leak bill adjustments will be applied to Customer bills based on the higher-than- average water volumes calculated by CPAU. Water leak bill adjustments will be applied to 50% of the calculated higher -than -average water volume, to a limit of $2,500, using the Tier 1 Commodity Rate cost of the appropriate residential or commercial Water Rate Schedule. 7. Wastewater bill adjustments related to Water leaks will be made based upon the adjusted Water volume, and are not included in the $2,500 Water leak bill adjustment limit. 8. Utility User Tax (UUT) billing adjustments related to Water leaks will be made based upon the adjusted Water volume and are not included in the $2,500 Water leak bill adjustment limit. 9. Administrative decisions regarding Water and Wastewater leak bill adjustments, including eligibility, volume calculations, and adjustment costs will be made by the General Manager of Utilities, or delegate, and are final. M. REFUSE BILLING ERRORS, DISPUTES AND ADJUSTMENTS 1. Adjustments to the Refuse bill shall be requested to the City’s Collector. Customers with adjustments unresolved by the City’s Collector, may dispute their claim with the City’s Public Works Department, Refuse.

(END) City of Palo Alto (ID # 8582) City Council Staff Report Report Type: Consent Calendar Meeting Date: 4/2/2018 City of Palo Alto Page 1 Summary Title: Park Improvement Ordinance for Baylands Boardwalk Title: Adoption of a Park Improvement Ordinance for Replacement of the Baylands Boardwalk (PE-14018) From: City Manager Lead Department: Public Works Recommendation Staff recommends Council adopt and approve a Park Improvement Ordinance (PIO) for the Baylands Boardwalk Improvement Project (PE-14018) at Lucy Evans Baylands Nature Interpretive Center located within the Baylands Nature Preserve (Attachment A). Executive Summary The Baylands Boardwalk Improvement Project (Project) includes replacement of the existing boardwalk at the Lucy Evans Baylands Nature Interpretive Center (Interpretive Center) with a new accessible boardwalk of the same length and on the same alignment. Staff presented the preliminary design of the proposed project in several public meetings, including the Parks and Recreation Commission (PRC) and Architectural Review Board (ARB). With extensive input received in these meetings and discussions with regulatory agencies, staff developed a project improvement plan containing the following key elements: 1. Demolition and replacement of the existing boardwalk 2. Observation platform and intermediate overlooks 3. Railings 4. Bird-safe intermittent viewing glass or wire mesh panels 5. Perch deterrent rollers attached to the top of railings City of Palo Alto Page 2 6. Decking 7. Piles/posts and supports 8. Benches 9. Wood staining and metal painting 10. Rub rail/handrail Section 22.08.005 of the Palo Alto Municipal Code requires that Council must approve and adopt a plan covering the proposed improvements before any substantial building, construction, reconstruction or development is approved on dedicated parkland. Background The existing boardwalk was constructed in 1969 and rehabilitated in 1980. Due to structural damage and safety concerns, the boardwalk was closed in March 2014. After minor structural repairs, a 200-foot segment of the boardwalk between the Interpretive Center and first overlook was opened to the public. In March 2016, a feasibility study determined the existing boardwalk to be structurally unsound and needs replacement. The PRC supported the findings of the study to replace the existing boardwalk (Staff Report). In September 2016, Council approved a contract with Biggs Cardosa Associates to provide design services for the proposed boardwalk (CMR 6669). In August 2017, staff presented the preliminary boardwalk design to the PRC (Staff Report) and in September 2017, the PRC voted 4-3 to recommend approval of the PIO to Council for the project (Staff Report). Commissioners voting against the PIO had the following concerns: 1. The proposed higher boardwalk would not provide users the unique experience they would get with a lower boardwalk, closer to the salt marsh. 2. The raptor perch deterrent rollers, which will be attached to the top of the railing, could potentially lead to slipping hazards as the rollers move. PRC requested adding a handrail to provide additional stability. 3. The California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) document was in public circulation at the time of the meeting (from 9/15/2017 to 10/16/2017). The Commissioners were hesitant to recommend approval of the PIO before CEQA completion. City of Palo Alto Page 3 It was decided that staff would provide the PRC an informational update with further clarifications on their concerns after the ARB hearing and upon CEQA completion. The ARB recommended Architectural Review (AR) approval of the project to the Planning Director on October 19, 2017 (ARB Meeting Minutes). In November 2017, the Director approved the project and adopted the Mitigated Negative Declaration (MND) prepared in accordance with CEQA. To address the PRC’s September 26, 2017 concerns, staff provided an informational update to the PRC on January 23, 2018, and discussed CEQA and ARB review comments, design updates addressing the ARB and PRC comments, and regulatory requirements and limitations governing the proposed design (Staff Report). The PRC was satisfied with the information presented and supportive of the project, and expressed a desire to complete construction soon, pending issuance of the regulatory permits. (Meeting Minutes). Discussion The project includes demolition of the existing boardwalk, an approximately 850-foot long by 4-foot wide timber structure, and replacing it with a new, Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) compliant boardwalk of the same length and on the same alignment as the existing boardwalk. The new boardwalk will be 5 feet wide and at the same deck elevation as the Interpretive Center. The new boardwalk structure (railings, decking, supports, piles, etc.) will be constructed of various types of timber elements to match the existing structure style and character, and is expected to have a life span of 50 to 75 years. There will be one observation platform at the far end of the proposed boardwalk, and four intermediate overlooks along the structure. Benches with back and arm rests, viewing panels, and sign rails to mount interpretive signage (under a separate future contract) will be provided at the intermediate overlooks and observation platform. Similar to the existing structure, the new boardwalk will have lockable gates to provide access at the interface of the existing Pacific Gas and Electric catwalk where it crosses the existing boardwalk, roughly at 400 feet from the Interpretive Center. The project requires the following regulatory permits and guidance before construction. All permit applications were submitted to the regulatory agencies in City of Palo Alto Page 4 September/October 2017 and are under their review:  United States Army Corps of Engineers (USACE) Section 404 Nationwide Permit  California Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB) Section 401 Water Quality Certification  San Francisco Bay Conservation and Development Commission (BCDC) permit  United States Fish and Wildlife Service (USFWS) endangered species consultation Discussions with the PRC during the approval process focused on the following two areas:  Boardwalk height: In regard to the PRC’s comment on lowering the boardwalk, staff explained the regulatory requirements and limitations that governed the proposed boardwalk height. The proposed project is in the BCDC jurisdiction and the BCDC policies mandate projects located within their jurisdiction be designed to be resilient to accommodate projected sea level rise. The proposed boardwalk height was determined in consultation with the BCDC to comply with these policies. For context, the existing boardwalk deck is approximately 2.1 feet above the ground surface, whereas the proposed boardwalk will be approximately 5.7 feet above the ground surface (i.e. the proposed boardwalk will be approximately 3.6 feet higher than the existing boardwalk). A higher boardwalk will also lessen impacts to the marsh by reducing shading and allowing more sunlight for vegetation growth beneath the boardwalk.  Raptor deterrent rollers: Per the PRC and ARB suggestions, and to address PRC’s concerns about the raptor deterrent rollers posing slipping hazards, staff included a rub rail/handrail on the inside face of both sides of the boardwalk railing to provide additional user stability. The rollers were added to the top of the railing per input received from the USFWS as the agency was concerned that the proposed higher boardwalk railing would provide opportunities for raptor perching/predation. Based on the input received from the public, PRC, ARB, and regulatory agencies, the following improvements are included in the project’s PIO (Attachment A): City of Palo Alto Page 5 1. Demolition and replacement of the existing boardwalk with a new boardwalk of the same length (approximately 850 feet) and on the same alignment. The new boardwalk will be 5 feet wide and at the same deck elevation as the recently renovated Lucy Evans Baylands Interpretive Center. 2. One observation platform at the San Francisco Bay end and four intermediate overlooks along the length of the boardwalk. 3. Redwood railing on both sides of the boardwalk. Overlooks and observation platform will have slanted railing cap to mount interpretive signs (part of future project). 4. Bird-safe intermittent viewing glass or wire mesh panels incorporated into the railings at the overlooks and observation platform. 5. Raptor perch deterrent rollers attached to the top of railings. 6. Redwood decking. 7. Alaskan Yellow Cedar piles/posts and supports. 8. Wood benches with back and arm rest on overlooks and observation platform. 9. Wood/metal components staining and painting. 10. Rub rail/handrail attached to the inside face of railing on both sides of the boardwalk. Resource Impact Funding of $346,353 for design services was approved in the FY 2018 Adopted Capital Budget for the Baylands Boardwalk Improvement project, PE-14018. Construction funding in the amount of $1,000,000 was planned as part of the 2018-2022 Capital Improvement Program (CIP) in this project, and this amount will be recommended in FY 2019 as part of the FY 2019 Proposed Capital Budget process. Timeline Project schedule is as follows:  Community meeting on project design concepts: May 3, 2017  PRC recommendation for PIO approval: September 26, 2017  ARB recommendation for project Architectural Review (AR) approval: October 19, 2017  Planning Director adoption of CEQA Mitigated Negative Declaration and AR approval (Notice of Determination filed): November 2017  Council review/approval of the PIO: April 2018 City of Palo Alto Page 6  Agency permits/review: September 2017 - Summer 2018  Complete design/bid project pending permits: Summer 2018  Boardwalk construction (best case): September 2018 - January 2019*  Boardwalk construction (worst case): September 2019 - January 2020* *To avoid nesting birds in the Baylands, the construction window is limited to five months from September 1 through January 31. The project construction may begin in September 2018, pending timeliness of permit issuance. Policy Implications The project is consistent with the Comprehensive Plan goals, policies and programs. Goal N-1: Protect, conserve and enhance Palo Alto’s citywide system of open space, including connected and accessible natural and urban habitats, ecosystems and natural resources, providing a source of public health, natural beauty and enjoyment for Palo Alto residents. Policy N1.1: Preserve, protect and enhance public and private open space and ecosystems of Palo Alto from the foothills to the baylands. Respect the role that natural and landscaped areas within the urbanized part of the city play in a resilient ecological continuum, as illustrated on Map N-1. Policy N1.2: Maintain a network of parks and urban forest from the urban center to the foothills and Baylands that provide ecological benefits and access to nature for all residents. Policy N1.5: Preserve and protect the Bay, marshlands, salt ponds, sloughs, creeks, and other natural water or wetland areas as open space, functioning habitats, and elements of a larger, interconnected wildlife corridor, consistent with the Baylands Master Plan, as periodically amended, which is incorporated here by reference. Environmental Review Pursuant to CEQA, an Initial Study and Mitigated Negative Declaration (IS/MND) was prepa red and circulated for public review from September 15, 2017 , to October 16, 2017. The MND City of Palo Alto Page 7 concluded that, with mitigation incorporated, the project will have no significant environmental impacts. The IS/MND was adopted by the Planning Director in November 2017 and may be viewed at http://www.cityofpaloalto.org/news/displaynews.asp?NewsID=4113&TargetID=3 19 Attachment Attachment A: Ordinance Approving and Adopting the Park Improvement Ordinance for the Baylands Boardwalk Improvement Project Attachments:  Attachment A: Ordinance PIO Baylands Boardwalk 1 Ordinance No. _____ Ordinance of the Council of the City of Palo Alto Approving and Adopting a Park Improvement Plan For the Baylands Boardwalk at Lucy Evans Baylands Nature Interpretive Center Located Within the Baylands Nature Preserve The Council of the City of Palo Alto does ORDAIN as follows: SECTION 1.

INTRODUCED: PASSED: AYES: NOES: ABSENT: ABSTENTIONS: ATTEST: ____________________________ ____________________________ City Clerk Mayor APPROVED AS TO FORM: APPROVED: ____________________________ ____________________________ Assistant City Attorney City Manager ____________________________ Director of Community Services ____________________________ Director of Administrative Services BAYLANDS BOARDWALK | SITE PLAN Exhibit A - Site Plan City of Palo Alto (ID # 8874) City Council Staff Report Report Type: Action Items Meeting Date: 4/2/2018 City of Palo Alto Page 1 Summary Title: Eichler Neighborhood Design Guidelines Title: Adoption of a Resolution Adopting Eichler Neighborhood Design Guidelines as Voluntary Guidelines and Discussion of Possible Next Steps Including Possible use of the Eichler Guidelines in Conjunct ion With the Individual Review Guidelines for two Story Home Reviews and Other Discretionary Entitlement Programs From: City Manager Lead Department: Planning and Community Environment Recommendation Staff recommends that the City Council: 1. Adopt the Resolution adopting the Eichler Neighborhood Design Guidelines (Guidelines) Attachment A as voluntary guidelines for use by the community, and finding the action exempt from review under California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) Guidelines Section 15308 (Actions for Protection of the Environment); 2. Provide direction to staff regarding possible next steps, as presented in Attachment B. Note: On February 22, 2018, the Historic Resources Board (HRB) recommended that the City Council adopt the proposed guidelines and direct staff to prepare an ordinance amending Chapter 18.12 (R-1, Single Family Residential) regulations to enable use of the guidelines (or a portion thereof) in conjunction with discretionary entitlement processes (Individual Review of new two-story homes and second floor additions, Variances and Home Improvement Exceptions for one and two-story homes) within R-1 Eichler neighborhoods. Executive Summary The Eichler Neighborhood Design Guidelines (“Guidelines”) describe characteristics of Palo Alto’s single family neighborhoods built in the post-World War II era by the developer Joseph Eichler, and provide guidance regarding the design of compatible modifications, additions, new homes and accessory dwellings in Eichler-built tracts within Palo Alto’s R-1 zone (single family) districts. City of Palo Alto Page 2 At this time, staff is requesting that the City Council adopt these Guidelines as voluntary guidelines for community use, and provide guidance on next steps (if any) needed to incorporate the Guidelines into the City’s zoning regulations. Options for incorporating the Guidelines into the City’s zoning regulations include: (1) Simply referencing the use of these Guidelines for the three code-established discretionary review processes for single-family homes;1 (2) Establishing a process whereby a super-majority of property owners within an Eichler tract may apply for rezoning of their tract as an “Eichler Zone” combining district, similar to the Single Story Overlay (SSO) combining district, ensuring use of the Gu idelines and compatible development of one- and two-story homes within the district; (3) Modifying Development Standards within the R-1 Zoning District (PAMC 18.12) specific to Eichler homes, with regulations tailored for the National Historic Register tracts and tracts with Single Story Overlays (SSOs), placing additional restrictions or providing greater allowances for additions to existing Eichlers. Any of the above options would require preparation of an ordinance for review/recommendation by Planning and Transportation Commission and consideration by the City Council at noticed public hearings. In addition, in developing an ordinance, staff would evaluate whether certain elements of the guidelines would remain voluntary. Staff, the HRB, and many community members recommend the first option. Selection of the second and third option would require additional resources, and staff would seek to combine this effort with ordinance changes aimed at making the SSO process less adversarial. Background On May 2, 2016, Council directed staff to return to Council with a preliminary evaluation of an Eichler overlay or strengthening the Individual Review (IR) Guidelines to incorporate Eichler design and privacy compatibility where appropriate, and depending on the conte xt of the lot, make allowance for second stories and adjustments to setbacks and possibly othe r accommodations; and directed staff to return to Council with options regarding the petition and voting process for SSOs and overlays. The Guidelines, included as part of Attachment A to this report, are viewable here: https://www.cityofpaloalto.org/civicax/filebank/documents/64118 . The Final (Revised) Guidelines reflect comments received during the initial 60-day comment period (November 9, 2017 to January 12, 2018), at the January 18th community meeting, and at the December 14th, January 25th and February 22nd HRB public hearings, as well as a more recent comment about the map of Eichler tracts Changes made after the HRB meeting to address the map comment are shown on an annotated draft viewable here: 1 These discretionary processes include review of two-story homes in the ‘Individual Review’ program, variances, and home improvement exceptions. City of Palo Alto Page 3 https://www.cityofpaloalto.org/civicax/filebank/documents/64117. Please see Attachment C for links to staff reports and minutes of HRB meetings summarizing the purpose and Council direction to staff regarding the Eichler Guidelines project as well as changes made in response to community/HRB comments. Attachment D provides an excerpt of the HRB February 22nd meeting minutes, which are not yet published on line. Above image: Illustration from Eichler Neighborhood Design Guidelines City of Palo Alto Page 4 Below image: 1950’s Greenmeadow Tract Eichler homes were designed by socially progressive California architects and built as affordable homes using European Modernist principles. Eichler homes have post-and-beam construction, striking roof forms with broad eaves, a simple material palette of wood and/or concrete block, with internal courtyards, and full-height glazing at the rear enabling integration of the homes’ interior and exterior spaces. Joseph Eichler’s suburban developments are excellent examples of indoor-outdoor California living, and two tracts in Palo Alto are listed on the National Register of Historic Places, indicating a nationwide importance of Eichler neighborhoods within the context of mid-century modern design. The Final (revised draft) Guidelines include eight chapters and one appendices chapter. The first three chapters include an introductory chapter (with FAQs and existing regulatory framework), a history chapter, and a chapter providing an overview of community values and concerns. The fourth chapter is entitled “Guidelines for Architectural Compatibility and Neighborhood Cohesion: New additions to Eichler homes; New Construction; and Accessory Dwelling Units.” Chapter four includes illustrations of successful and unsuccessful additions with descriptions. The later chapters (5-7) address maintenance, landscaping and the Secretary of Interior’s Standards, and are intended for Eichler owners wishing to preserve and restore Eichler homes and owners of homes within National Register districts. Chapter 8, entitled “Process Improvement Suggestions,” contains two pages of suggestions from the City’s consultant for consideration at a future time. The only action requested this evening is adoption of the Guidelines as voluntary guidelines and direction to staff regarding next steps. Referencing the guidelines in the City’s zoning regulations or requiring their use in any way would require adoption of an ordinance by the City Council following review and recommendation by the Planning and Transportation Commission. Community Outreach Development of the Guidelines has involved extensive input - from the Spring of 2017 through the end of February 2018 - by property owners, community members, and the Historic Resources Board (HRB). Public input was provided via email, online survey, at three community workshops, two in the Spring of 2017, one in January 2018, and at meetings of the Historic Resources Board (HRB) in December, January, and February. Staff sent emails to subscribers of the City’s Eichler webpage to announce meetings, the November release of the Public Review Draft, and in the weeks prior to the HRB’s recommendation of the Guidelines February 22 nd. City of Palo Alto Page 5 Staff also mailed bright green notice cards to all Eichler homes in Palo Alto just prior to the February 22nd HRB meeting. Prior to the April 2nd Council consideration of these Guidelines, staff:  Mailed green notice cards to all Eichler home addresses, and  Informed the Silicon Valley Association of Realtors (SILVAR) of the Council date, webpage and process, as well as the potential next steps. Staff will be presenting the Guidelines at the SILVAR’s Palo Alto local government meeting on April 5, 2018, and discussing future outreach/next steps related to the potential regulatory options. The City’s webpage contains background and displays the community outreach schedule: https://www.cityofpaloalto.org/gov/depts/pln/long_range_planning/special_projects/eichler_g uidelines.asp The webpage also references other outreach including a pod-cast and article produced by KQED. Recently there have been several news articles written about this process. The Palo Alto Weekly article is viewable here: https://www.paloaltoonline.com/news/2018/03/02/city-hopes-to-restore-eichler-harmony Community Input: Written Comments and Recent Outreach Written comments on the Public Review Draft received in January and February (through February 13th) were provided to the HRB (Attachments D and E of the February 22nd HRB report). Comments received in the Eichler inbox after February 13 th are provided as Attachment E to this report. The Annotated Final Draft Guidelines posted on the webpage and provided to the HRB showed the modifications made to the November 9th Public Review Draft in response to comments. One comment noting an additional Eichler development not captured in the first map resulted in the addition of a multi-family Eichler development to the map of Eichler tracts (shown as tract #25 in the version the HRB recommended on February 22nd); since these homes are attached homes in a multi-family residential zone district, this tract was removed from the map for the Final Guidelines presented to Council, which shows only R-1 zoned Eichler tracts. Some correspondence indicates homeowners are concerned about the potential for regulations related to the Guidelines. Some claim there was not enough effort to have broad community input especially from the “champions of the community who opposed the SSO”. The potential for regulations became the “center of the conversation” in the January community meeting. The more recent email commenters reflected commenters who had not supported the SSO and who seek to provide feedback on next steps. The repeated bulleted statements (within those emails) ask that:  “All Guidelines should be voluntary and not regulations,  After the Guidelines are passed, SSO neighborhoods should have a chance to convert their neighborhood to non-SSO, with only 30% vote required,  Aesthetic things like garage door should not be too restrictive,  Guidelines should guide people on building the second story the right way, and not fight/limit the second stories.” City of Palo Alto Page 6 As noted in the HRB report, some commenters felt the Guidelines don’t reflect the beliefs of those who opposed the SSOs, and urged the city to not adopt any formal guidelines about “looks” due to “implications of Guidelines and enforceability”. On February 16th, to broaden the outreach, staff distributed colorful notice cards to every Eichler home in Palo Alto – inviting participation at the February 22nd HRB meeting and noting ways to view (live or archived) videos of the HRB meeting. There is still concern by those in favor of SSOs, which generally offer the best privacy protection, since it is difficult (at best) to design a second floor that does not impact privacy of nearby Eichlers. The policy for second story development is likely a tract-by-tract decision, which is necessarily a proposal from the property owners for Council consideration, since the City cannot dictate SSO restrictions. Those concerned about second story construction continue to request that the City set standards for individual tracts that are not already SSOs, and ask that these standards be established in a “non -adversarial” fashion and in open discussion, and that the City also work toward a new non-adversarial SSO process. Discussion/Next Steps Adoption of the proposed resolution would conclude the current planning effort with adoption of the Eichler Guidelines as voluntary guidelines. If the City Council would like to ensure that guidelines are used during discretionary reviews (like reviews of two story home s), they should direct staff to prepare an ordinance for consideration at a future date. Attachment B outlines three possible options for Council input. Option 1: Use the Guidelines for Two-Story Home ‘IR’ Reviews and Other Discretionary Applications The existing Single Family Individual Review (IR) Process and Guidelines pertain only to privacy, mass and streetscape (and not to compatible architectural style) for two-story homes and second floor additions. The IR Guidelines have limitations with respect to guiding compatible development in post-war Eichler tract neighborhoods, and in this option, the IR Guidelines would be enhanced to include techniques for designing second floor additions to one-story Eichler homes and compatible new two-story homes in Eichler tracts. This is the HRB’s and staff’s recommendation. Option 2: Create an Eichler Overlay Zone District similar to an SSO This option would create a new overlay zone and process for neighborhoods to apply for the new zone, similar to the way neighborhoods can apply for Single Story Overlay (SSO) zone districts. An Eichler Overlay District could have more existing two-story homes than the 20% maximum threshold needed to establish an SSO and could allow for new second floor additions or new two-story homes, as long as they are consistent with the guidelines. Within Eichler Overlay Districts, the Eichler Guidelines could also apply to one-story homes on a voluntary basis, or the District could require compliance via a review process for one-story homes within the district. City of Palo Alto Page 7 Option 3: Modify Development Standards for R-1 Neighborhoods This option would be to modify Development Standards within the R-1 Zoning District (PAMC 18.12) specific to Eichler tracts. The revised standards could place additional restrictions (such as limitations on height, second floor mass placement or second floor area), or provide greater allowances for additions to existing Eichler homes (such as allowing greater lot coverage for two story homes with limitations on the size of second floor), along with these restrictions. This option could also provide development standards tailored to new homes within the flood zone Eichler tracts. Accessory Dwelling Unit Standards On April 17, 2017, Council adopted an Ordinance amending Chapter 18 (Zoning) to implement a new State law related to Accessory Dwelling Units (ADUs) and Junior Dwelling Units and related amendments. As part of the Council motions, Council directed staff “to return with potential Eichler design guidelines relating to ADUs, including lower height limits.” This motion is noted on Guidelines page 30, which states: “As a result, this Eichler Neighborhood Design Guidelines document includes guidelines related to ADUs, including placement of ADUs within the origina l house volume; placement of detached ADUs on the lot; and design guidance for attached and detached ADUs.” The design guidance is found on pages 79 – 82. In particular, Guideline 4.3.2 states, “Design detached ADUs with as low a height and roof slope as p ossible, in order to reduce the building’s visibility from surrounding residences” with additional verbiage including:  “Given that detached ADUs will likely be placed near property lines, design them with consideration of the building’s visual effect on b oth the main residence as well as surrounding residences.  The maximum allowed height, per California State law, for attached and detached ADUs is 17 feet. Designing an ADU that has a lower height than the maximum is strongly encouraged.” An ordinance regarding ADUs is scheduled for consideration by the Planning and Transportation Commission (PTC) on March 28, 2018. As currently drafted, the ordinance would reduce the height of detached ADUs in the 31 R-1 zoned Eichler tracts from 17 feet to 12 feet, and attached ADUs to no taller than the existing home ba sed on comments received during the Eichler Guidelines review process. The proposed ordinance language is as follows: “for an attached ADU, the height shall be no taller than the existing primary dwell ing unit, and a detached ADU shall be limited to 12 feet.” The Council will have the option to adjust this recommended height limit when it considers the ADU ordinance, which is tentatively scheduled for May. Comprehensive Plan Update Policy L-7.2 City of Palo Alto Page 8 A new Comprehensive Plan policy requires the City to consider, prior to issuing demolition or substantial alteration permits, whether homes are eligible for inclusion on the State or Federal historic registers. Based upon the staff’s familiarity with the post -war housing stock gained through the Eichler Guidelines planning effort, staff believes that individual post -war homes do not qualify for inclusion on the State or Federal historic registers and this finding is inclu ded in the proposed resolution. (Individual homes may still contribute to the significance of a recognized historic district.) Single Story Overlay (SSO) Process Changes The City Council has requested staff return with options for making improvements to the SSO rezoning process, with the goal of making it a less adversarial process. Staff has not been able to prioritize this effort, which can be considered in tandem with zoning ordinance changes (if any) developed to address the Eichler Guidelines. Consideration regarding flood zone areas may be a key consideration during this process. A map showing the flood zone with respect to Eichler tracts is provided in the Guidelines, and is excerpted in the image provided here: Policy Implications The text of the resolution in Attachment A identifies Comprehensive Plan policies that are advanced by preparation and use of the Eichler Guidelines. If the City Council directs staff to prepare an ordinance to ensure use of the Guidelines as suggested in Attachment B and City of Palo Alto Page 9 explained above, the resulting ordinances will have to be assessed for conformance with the Comprehensive Plan. Resources Impact No additional resources are requested as part of the recommendations of this report. However, selection of the second and third option discussed above would require additional resources in the future, and staff would seek to combine this effort with ordinance changes aimed at making the SSO process less adversarial. Environmental Review The Project is exempt from the provisions of the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) per Class 8 Categorical Exemption, which applies to actions taken by regulatory agencies, as authorized by State or Local Ordinance, to assure the maintenance, restoration, enhancement, or protection of the environment where the regulatory process involves procedures for protection of the environment.

In late 2016, Council authorized staff to proceed with a consultant contract to develop design guidelines for Eichler neighborhoods in Palo Alto; B. Two community outreach meetings and an on-line survey were conducted in the spring of 2017, and a third meeting “Eichler Memory Event” was held in the summer of 2017, prior to development of a Public Review Draft Eichler Neighborhood Design Guidelines (Guidelines); C. On October 12, 2017, staff presented an informational report to the Historic Resources Board, describing the processes for Guidelines adoption and for developing potential regulatory options; D. The Public Review Draft Guidelines, which were informed by and incorporated community comments, were published on November 9, 2017, as announced at a Historic R esources Board meeting on the same day, for a 60-day initial public comment period ending January 12, 2018; E. Following release of the Public Review Draft Guidelines, the Historic Resources Board conducted two hearings on December 14, 2017, and January 25, 2018, to receive public testimony and provide comments on the Public Review Draft Guidelines; on January 25 th, the HRB continued the public hearing to February 22, 2018 to allow the HRB to review a final draft addressing the January public comments; F. At the community meeting on January 18, 2018, attendees provided input into the Guidelines and potential regulatory options; G. On February 22, 2018, the Historic Resources Board reviewed the Final Draft Guidelines and heard public testimony, provided comments to staff, and recommended City Council adoption of the Guidelines; NOW, THEREFORE, the City Council for the City of Palo Alto RESOLVES as follows: SECTION 1. Upon consideration of the HRB’s recommendation at a duly noticed public hearing on April 2, 2018, the City Council makes the following findings: 1. The Eichler Neighborhood Design Guidelines (“Guidelines”) are a voluntary set of guidelines intended as a tool for Eichler-built, single family home tracts in the community. The Guidelines are consistent and compatible with applicable policies of the Palo Alto Comprehensive Plan, including: NOT YET APPROVED a. Policy L-1.1, Ensure that new or remodeled structures are compatible with the neighborhood and adjacent structures. b. Policy L-5.2, Use the zoning ordinance, design review process, design guidelines and coordinated area plans to ensure high quality residential and commercial design and architectural compatibility. c. Policy L-5.4, In areas of the city having a historic or consistent design character, encourage the design of new development to maintain and support the existing character. d. Policy L-5.8, Support existing regulations that preserve exposure to natural light for single-family residences. e. Policy L-5.9, Discourage the use of fences that obscure the view of the front of houses from the street. f. Policy L-6.1, Encourage public and private upkeep and preservation of resources that have historic merit, including residences listed in the City’s Historic Resource Inventory, the California Register of Historical Resources, or the National Register of Historic Places. g. Policy L-6.2, If a proposed project would substantially affect the exterior of a potential historic resource that has not been evaluated for inclusion into the City’s Historic Resources Inventory, City staff shall consider whether it is eligible for inclusion in State or federal registers prior to the issuance of a demolition or alterations permit. Minor exterior improvements that do not affect the architectural integrity of potentially historic buildings shall be exempt from consideration. Examples of minor improvements may include repair or replacement of features in kind, or other changes that do not alter character-defining features of the building. h. Policy L-6.7, Streamline, to the maximum extent feasible, any future processes for design review of historic structures to eliminate unnecessary delay and uncertainty for the applicant and to encourage historic preservation. 2. The Guidelines are consistent and compatible with the applicable purposes of the R-1 Zone (PAMC 18.12 Section 18.12.010 items a-c, which are as follows: a. In R-1 zones, to create, preserve, and enhance areas suitable for detached dwellings with a strong presence of nature and with open area affording maximum privacy and opportunities for outdoor living and children’s play, and to create and preserve variety among neighborhoods, to provide adequate open area, and to encourage quality design, where accessory dwelling units, junior accessory dwelling units and accessory structures or buildings are appropriate; and NOT YET APPROVED b. In R-1 sub-districts, to create and maintain single-family living areas of varying site size and development characteristics, to reflect and preserve the character of existing neighborhoods; and c. In Single-Story combining districts, to preserve and maintain single-family living areas of predominantly single-story character in areas having a prevailing single story character, thus limiting the number of structures rendered noncomplying by the (S) combining district. It is intended that neighborhoods currently subject to single story deed restrictions be developed in a manner consistent with those deed restrictions. Furthermore, it is desirable that homes be similar in age, design and character, ensuring that residents of an area proposed for rezoning possess like desires for neighborhood preservation and face common home remodeling constraints. 3. Individual post-war homes such as Eichlers are not considered historical resources pursuant to Government Code Section 21084.1 unless they contribute to the significance of a locally- designated historic district or a historic district that has been listed on the California Register of Historic Resources or the National Register of Historic Places; SECTION 2. The City Council hereby adopts the Eichler Neighborhood Design Guidelines attached as Exhibit A, which shall remain as voluntary guidelines in the absence of further action by the City Council. SECTION 3. In conformance with the California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA), the subject project has been assessed in accordance with the authority and criteria contained in CEQA, the State CEQA Guidelines, and the environmental regulations of the City. Specifically, the project is exempt from the provisions of CEQA per Class 8 Categorical Exemption, which applies to actions taken by regulatory agencies, as authorized by state or local ordinance, to assure the maintenance, restoration, enhancement, or protection of the environment where the regulatory process involves procedures for protection of the environment. INTRODUCED AND PASSED: AYES: NOES: ABSENT: ABSTENTIONS: ATTEST: City Clerk Mayor NOT YET APPROVED APPROVED AS TO FORM: APPROVED: __________________________ ____________________________ Deputy City Attorney City Manager ____________________________ Director of Planning and Community Environment ____________________________ Director of Administrative Services NOT YET APPROVED Exhibit A to Council Resolution _____ Adopting the Eichler Neighborhood Design Guidelines as Voluntary Guidelines Hard copies of the Final Eichler Neighborhood Design Guidelines as Voluntary Guidelines are provided to the City Council and Palo Alto libraries. The online version of the Guidelines are found at this link: https://www.cityofpaloalto.org/civicax/filebank/documents/64118 Eichler Neighborhood Design Guidelines Regulatory Options The voluntary Guidelines address and incorporate the following values: a sense of community, shared landscape, privacy, modern architecture, cohesion, adaptability, and preservation.  An ordinance would be required to: (1) enable use of the Guidelines or a portion thereof in conjunction with discretionary reviews, (2) create an Eichler Combining District option for tracts to ‘self -select’, and/or (3) implement zoning code adjustments to address second floor additions, new two-story homes, and additional code restrictions (such as height limit) for ADUs in Eichler tracts.  Below are three potential regulatory options for Council consideration: Tier 1 IR Integration and Privacy Guidelines Tier 2 Voluntary Eichler Overlay Zone District Tier 3 Development Standards Approach: Modify R-1 Zone Chapter to indicate use of adopted Eichler Guidelines in the IR program and other discretionary applications. (No Development Standards added to direct style or other design concerns) Potential to modify the IR Guidelines (especially, to add techniques to minimize privacy impacts within Eichler tracts; may also incorporate techniques for Eichler design compatibility where appropriate). The IR program is for new 2-story homes and 2nd floor additions; Eichler Guidelines supplement/inform program Eichler Guidelines to be considered by staff when making approval findings for Variances and Home Improvement Exceptions for one- and two-story projects Approach: Create Eichler Overlay or Combining District that could allow for limited, compatible two-story development in Eichler tracts not already zoned SSO. An overlay could be useful to (1) tracts comprised of more than 20% two-story homes, (2) as an alternative to the SSO rezoning process. Ordinance could establish a process whereby a super- majority of property owners within an Eichler tract may apply for rezoning of their tracts as an “Eichler Zone” combining district. Eichler Zone ordinance language could ensure use of the Guidelines to acheive compatible development of one- and two-story homes within the district. Approach: Modify R-1 Development Standards for second floor additions and new two-story homes, and ADUs in Eichler tracts. Could include new standards and/or review process for one-story homes in flood zones. Regulations could be tailored for the National Historic Register tracts and non-National Register tracts with Single Story Overlays (SSOs) Note: An ordinance would also be required to amend the SSO rezoning process set forth in PAMC 18.12.100 to address options for how to determine level of support for SSOs and address the Council-expressed need to ‘break up’ the petition and 'voting' processes. Council may wish to direct staff to conduct outreach regarding potential SSO process amendments, including assessment of support level, in conjunction with outreach regarding an Eichler Overlay or Combining District. The SSO process amendments could include:  Staff Survey and ‘Vote’ following application/petition from super-majority of owners  Standardized form for petition and support level at submittal  Standardized survey/method  A different/lower percentage for staff-generated survey after application deemed complete  Address erosion/reversals of support in code language  Address rezoning process/level of support to remove existing SSOs Historic Resources Board Staff Report (ID # 8905) Report Type: Action Items Meeting Date: 2/22/2018 City of Palo Alto Planning & Community Environment 250 Hamilton Avenue Palo Alto, CA 94301 (650) 329-2442 Summary Title: Eichler Neighborhood Design Guidelines Title: PUBLIC HEARING: Historic Resources Board Recommendation of the Palo Alto Eichler Neighborhood Design Guidelines to the City Council From: Hillary Gitelman Recommendation Staff recommends that the Historic Resources Board (HRB) take the following action(s): 1. Resume the public hearing, continued from January 25, 2018, and provide comments on the Final Draft Palo Alto Eichler Neighborhood Design Guidelines (Guidelines); and 2. Recommend Council approval of the Final Draft Guidelines. Summary This report transmits the final draft Guidelines, modified to address comments received during the 60-day comment period, January 18th community meeting and January 25th HRB public hearing. The Final Draft Guidelines are annotated to clarify changes made to the Public Review Draft. The Final Draft Guidelines are viewable via the City’s Eichler page (http://www.cityofpaloalto.org/gov/depts/pln/special_projects/eichler_neighborhood_design_ guidelines_.asp) which has been updated to reflect the current schedule and summarize the community outreach for the project. Earlier reports to the HRB provide de tail regarding the purpose and Council direction to staff regarding the Eichler Guidelines project. The origin of the Guidelines project was neighborhood concern regarding incompatible, new two-story homes proposed in several of the 31 Eichler-built tracts in Palo Alto. In 2015 and 2016, this concern prompted four neighborhoods to request single -story overlay (SSO) rezoning to restrict new development to one-story homes. Council approved two of the requested SSOs (Los Arboles and Greer Park North), and did not approve two SSOs (Royal Manor and Faircourt) because support for the overlay in those tracts eroded during the public hearing process. As noted in reports and meetings on this topic, there is the potential for the Guidelines, or a portion thereof, to be used in conjunction with existing discretionary review processes, such as City of Palo Alto Planning & Community Environment Department Page 2 the Individual Review program. Zoning Code changes would be required in order to establish a connection to the Guidelines beyond use as an informational tool for voluntary compliance. Staff is preparing for Council direction to make changes to the Zoning Code, which is a separate process requiring legal notice to homeowners and Planning and Transportation Commission (PTC) public hearings, at minimum, prior to City Council review and adoption of any ordinance. Background HRB Hearings Summary HRB reports, minutes and videos, are viewable via links from agendas on this webpage: https://www.cityofpaloalto.org/gov/boards/historic/default.asp, and provide background information regarding the Eichler Guidelines project. October 12, 2017 The HRB discussed the Guidelines project on October 12, 2017. Meeting minutes are available here: https://www.cityofpaloalto.org/civicax/filebank/documents/62570 . The October staff report, viewable here https://www.cityofpaloalto.org/civicax/filebank/documents/63375 described the Council’s direction to staff and noted that Council would review draft Guidelines in the Spring 2018, when Council could consider whether to direct staff to bring forward amendments to the City’s ordinances, or create new regulatory measures to implement the Guidelines. The report also addressed relationship to the Individual Review Program by:  Clarifying limitations on R-1 development standards cannot be mandated via voluntary guidelines, but could be imposed via amendments to the zoning ordinance and the Individual Review (IR) Guidelines, applicable to new two-story, single family-homes and second floor additions (but not tall, one-story homes).  Describing limitations of the IR Guidelines limitations, which do not: o prescribe how to best achieve compatibility with an Eichler neighborhood scale and pattern, o prescribe a maximum second floor area in terms such as a limitation on the number of rooms or a percentage of the first floor area, o limit the height of a one-story or second floor volume within an Eichler neighborhood, nor o mandate use of a mid-century modern style.  Providing a link to the 2016 Individual Review Program Audit report presented to the PTC in August 2016 (viewable at http://www.cityofpaloalto.org/civicax/filebank/documents/53365). Minutes of the August 2016 PTC meeting are viewable here: https://www.cityofpaloalto.org/civicax/filebank/documents/56020 November 9, 2017 On November 9, 2017, the HRB received hard copy of the Public Review Draft Guidelines. No staff report was prepared, but meeting was noticed and recorded. The HRB discussion is City of Palo Alto Planning & Community Environment Department Page 3 viewable by video at this link: http://midpenmedia.org/historic-resources-board-45/. Minutes of the November meeting were provided with the December 14, 2017 HRB staff report. December 14, 2017 The HRB provided comments on December 14, 2017. The December 14th report is viewable here: https://www.cityofpaloalto.org/civicax/filebank/documen ts/62556. Minutes of the December 14th HRB meeting were provided in the January 25, 2018 HRB staff report. January 25, 2018 The January 25, 2018 HRB report provided a summary of the written comments received prior to the comment deadline of January 12 th. At HRB member places on January 25, 2018, staff provided a hardcopy matrix of comments received through the January 18, 2018 community workshop, and brief responses to the comments. These have been uploaded to this report as Attachment D, which has several additional comments added, but does not reflect emails received after the January 25th HRB packet preparation. The January 25th HRB staff report is visible here: https://www.cityofpaloalto.org/civicax/filebank/documents/62974 and the minutes from the January 25, 2018 HRB meetings are provided as Attachment C. City of Palo Alto Planning & Community Environment Department Page 4 Discussion Approach to Addressing Written Comments The Final Draft Guidelines, annotated to show modifications to the Public Review Draft, include:  Insertion of the word “voluntary” and phrase “public educational” where deemed helpful to a reader’s understanding of the essential nature of the Guidelines;  Addition of a frequently asked questions section, which discus ses the voluntary nature of the Guidelines and the potential future regulatory changes;  On the Eichler Tracts map, listing of tracts from oldest to newest (as requested by the HRB);  Verbiage adding flexibility toward additions at the fronts of homes, provided the addition is compatible with the overall design of the house;  Recommendation for ADUs to be potentially placed at rear or the front of the property, possibly attached to the primary residence or developed within a portion of the house or garage;  Deletion of some content in the “Process Improvement Suggestions” chapter, including verbiage about the ‘erosion of support’ (related to two SSO rezoning processes in 2016) and provision of a statement: “Use of these Guidelines in association with any discretionary planning process or for review of homes in any special district will be as established by Council in Palo Alto Municipal Code Chapter 18.12. Council adoption of any regulatory ordinance related to use of these Guidelines (or a subset of these Guidelines) is a legislative process requiring review and recommendation by the Planning and Transportation Commission.”  Reordering of chapters: o The earlier chapter (chapter four) is about projects that could affect the neighborhood character more broadly. Chapter four is now titled, “Respecting privacy within Eichler neighborhoods; architectural compatibility and neighborhood cohesion; new additions to existing Eichler homes; new home construction; and accessory dwelling units.” o Chapters five through eight have the following titles: Preserving and restoring Eichler homes, Promoting a shared landscape, streetscape, and sense of nature, Guidance for National Register districts, and Process improvement suggestions and next steps;  Additional information about Eichler’s policy regarding non-discrimination;  Insertion of successful and unsuccessful addition illustrations with descriptions, including second story additions. Below are sample excerpted ‘appropriate’ illustrations: City of Palo Alto Planning & Community Environment Department Page 5  Below is a sample of descriptions with the ‘appropriate’ addition illustrations: Description: A successful second-story addition to an existing Eichler home using the same flat roof form, post-and-beam construction and similar window forms. The addition is set back from the front facade to make the addition subordinate to the original home. To address privacy concerns, larger windows are located on the front facade, and windows on the side facades are clerestory windows, which allow in light but are above the occupants' eye-line.  Below is a sample of ‘inappropriate’ addition illustrations and description: City of Palo Alto Planning & Community Environment Department Page 6 January 18th Community Meeting and Comments Received After January 25th HRB Packet Attachment E contains email correspondence received after the preparation of the January 2 5th HRB packet. The correspondence indicates many homeowners are disconcerted by the potential for regulations related to the Guidelines. Some expressed concern that this is nearing the end of the process and state that there was not enough effort to have broad community input; especially, some of the commenters note a desire for staff to directly “reach out to champions of the community who opposed the SSO”. One commenter, who had attended an HRB meeting to hear the HRB discussion about the Guidelines, states that the January 18th community meeting was too focused on how to make the guidelines mandatory via legislation, that it became the “center of the conversation.” Others cite a concern the Guidelines include information about details such as door ha ndles, garage doors and front door colors. Staff notes that the first hour of the January 18 th meeting was focused on the Guidelines with opportunity for comment on each chapter; however, the attendees’ questions soon focused on the potential for regulations related to the Guidelines. The second hour was focused on the potential for Council direction to direct staff to bring back draft regulations. Staff presented the one slide about options that staff also presented to the HRB on January 25th. Several of the latest comments are from owners within the Greer Park North tract, which Council rezoned to an SSO in 2015; these commenters did not support the SSO and provide feedback on next steps. The repeated bulleted statements (within those emails) ask that:  “All Guidelines should be voluntary and not regulations,  After the Guidelines are passed, SSO neighborhoods should have a chance to convert their neighborhood to non-SSO, with only 30% vote required,  Aesthetic things like garage door should not be too restrictive,  Guidelines should guide people on building the second story the right way, and not fight/limit the second stories.” Other comments are from owners within the Royal Manor tract, where the SSO effort was unsuccessful. These comments state that the Guidelines don’t reflect the beliefs of those who opposed the SSOs, urging the city to not adopt any formal guidelines about “looks” due to “implications of Guidelines and enforceability”, and asking staff to seek broader community outreach. Additional Outreach On February 16th, staff distributed colorful notice cards to every Eichler home in Palo Alto – inviting participation at the February 22nd HRB meeting and noting ways to view (live or archived) videos of the HRB meeting. Staff will also distribute public hearing notice cards to these homes in advance of the Council’s consideration of the Guidelines. The webpage for this project provides a summary of outreach and community consideration . City of Palo Alto Planning & Community Environment Department Page 7 Next Steps City Council Action The attached draft Resolution (Attachment A) has been prepared for City Council adoption of the final Draft Guidelines. The Resolution includes relevant policies from the Comprehensive Plan Council adopted on November 13, 2017. An April date is now targeted for City Council consideration of the final draft. Should Council direct staff to proceed with policy and or zoning code amendments, staff would hold public hearings to refine these approaches. Potential Regulatory Options Potential regulatory options were presented at the commu nity meeting on January 18, 2018, and discussed briefly with the HRB on January 25, 2018; Attachment B summarizes the options graphically. Council will be presented with these options for consideration, and may direct staff to move forward with one or more options. Following its recommendation of the Final Draft Guidelines, after hearing any public testimony, the HRB may wish to discuss and comment on the ‘tiered’ options. Preferences noted at the community meeting are shown below.  “Tier 0” approach would mean the Guidelines are voluntary, with no ordinance to enforce mandatory use of any portion of them.  “Tier 1” approach is use of the Guidelines as a tool for staff and consultants reviewing new two-story homes and second floor additions proceeding through the ‘Individual Review’ discretionary planning entitlement process. A zoning ordinance would be prepared to reference the existence and use of the residential guidelines (including Professorville Guidelines) as a tool for the IR program. The ordinan ce could also clarify the relevance of guidelines for a historic district listed locally and subject to the City’s historic ordinance (Professorville, which is also listed on the National Register) versus tracts that are only listed on the National Registe r (Green Gables and Greenmeadow) and not subject to the City’s historic ordinance. If Council directs this approach, staff would bring an ordinance to the PTC and City Council with required notice and public hearings. This option appeared to have more support at the community meeting. This could also allow use of the Guidelines for review of residential projects seeking exceptions to zoning development standards (e.g. Home Improvement Exceptions and Variances).  Related to the Tier 1 approach, within the Individual Review Guidelines, additional privacy measures from the Eichler Guidelines could be cited to strengthen how well a new two-story home or new second floor addition respects an adjacent Eichler home’s existing privacy condition.  “Tier 2” approach is to create the opportunity for neighborhoods to self-select to become Eichler Overlay (EO) Districts, similar to Single Story Overlay (SSO) Districts. An Eichler Overlay District could have more existing two-story homes than the 20% maximum threshold needed to establish an SSO. An Eichler Overlay could allow for new City of Palo Alto Planning & Community Environment Department Page 8 second floor additions or new two-story homes, whereas existing SSOs could not have new two-story homes or new second floor additions. Note: An existing SSO could still utilize the Eichler Guidelines specific to one-story homes, on a voluntary basis. Currently, the City does not have a one-story design review program; therefore, any desire by owners of a tract to have a review program for one - story homes and additions would have to be addr essed with ordinance language, such as noted in the next Tier, Tier 3 (not Tier 2).  “Tier3” approach would be to modify Development Standards within the R-1 Zoning District (PAMC 18.12) specific to Eichler homes. Such regulations could be tailored for the National Historic Register tracts and non -National Register tracts with Single Story Overlays (SSOs). The revised standards could place additional restrictions or provide greater allowances for additions to existing Eichlers. Single Story Overlay Regulations Modifications to Chapter 18.12 of the Palo Alto Municipal Code (PAMC) are necessary to respond to the Council’s direction for improvements to the Single Story Overlay (SSO) rezoning process. Following Council adoption of the Eichler Guidelines, and direction to staff regarding potential options, staff will begin the process of outreach and notification of draft zoning ordinance changes to address the SSO process issues. Public hearings before the Planning and Transportation Commission (PTC) are required for any zoning ordinance changes.

PUBLIC HEARING: Historic Resources Board Recommendation of the Palo Alto Eichler Neighborhood Design Guidelines to the City Council Chair Bower: Alright, we’ll move to new business – I’m sorry, to our continued business which is a public hearing of the Eichler Neighborhood Design Guidelines. I’d like to remind anyone in the audience that if you’d like to speak to this item, please fill out one of these cards and give it to one of our staff members. Staff report? Ms. French: Yes, hello. Coordinating… so thank you for announcing that speaker cards are what we need to track who’s speaking today. This application – this project has come before you initially in November , then December, then January and now today. We’ve been at this for about a year with many workshops and attended by not everybody but a core group and some others more recently that heard that there might be a potential for regulatory. Right now, that is not the case - we are looking at guidelines voluntary in nature and going to Council in April at this point. So, here we are today and here’s the track. We have a website devoted to this project; we have ways that folks can get an email – e-blasts when they sign up. We recently blanketed all Eichler neighborhoods with notice cards and it was an undertaking. We don’t have ready lists of Eichler folks but we did undertake that and we will do it aga in prior to the Council meeting. These are the Eichler neighborhoods in town. I’ve spoken with one Eichler tract that is interested in removing the single -story overlay, but that’s only one… Board Member Kohler: What did you say? Ms. French: I’ve spoken with one… Board Member Kohler: Remove what? Ms. French: Remove the single-story overlay zoning. Board Member Kohler: Oh, ok. Ms. French: It’s an application process, only one tract. Just a quick recap, the staff report presented all of this. What’s changed is you have a copy of both the annotated draft that shows the changes since you last saw these guidelines and the draft that is – has those changes incorporated. So, the one draft that shows in orange the changes, and the draft that will go to City Council. So, overview quickly, FAQs have been incorporated in an early section hopefully to communicate to folks that this is voluntary. We’ve tried to hit that point several times; you know how will we use it? We would like to utilize these guidelines HISTORIC RESOURCES BOARD MEETING EXCERPT MINUTES: February 22, 2018 City Hall/City Council Chambers 250 Hamilton Avenue 8:30 A.M. City of Palo Alto Page 2 when we do Individual Review of two-story homes and second-floor additions. The Council would have to, of course, adopt an ordinance regarding that, so that’s not even happening in April. That would be after April if the Council so chooses to direct staff to come back. There are some key points of this, community values, that’s been verified. The chapter on maintenance is now a later chapter, the new construction is now an earlier chapter, and Chapter 8 was modified to remove some of that language that was causing people to mistakenly believe that this was somehow regulatory. It is not regulatory, this is voluntary. I’ll just say one more time ; this is a voluntary set of guidelines that are being proposed. With that, I think we need to get to the public but if you have any questions or comments, staff would like to hear from you, and as to the current set of guidelines. Chair Bower: Just as a recap, Board Members have received two of these , which is the proposed guidelines - The original that we have reviewed earlier at one of our meetings , and also all of us have read; and then a new annotated version which has orange changes. I will tell – because they are not available for the member of the public that are here, there are substantial changes that address a number of the comments that were made on the website or directly emailed to City staff. There are 236 comments that are in our package today. I’ve looked at all of them, they are pretty extensive and we’ll get to a discussion of the whole – the guidelines and these comments later. Let’s move to the public – hearing from the public because we have – I currently have eight cards, I’d like to limit this to three minutes. I request that if someone else has already spoken to an issue that you feel is important, simply note that you concur with that rather than spending the time basically saying the same thing that’s already been said. We want to – we have lots of work to do here so the first person on the list is Ken Vently followed by Cynthia Ishimoto. Please state your name. Mr. Ken Vently: My name is Ken Vently, I live in an Eichler house near Gunn High School in Maybell Gardens. A day and a half ago I got this and they gave me a day and a half to come up with a response. However, living in an Eichler, I’ve been there for a long time and I’d like to ask anyone of you if anyone of you ever owned or lived in an Eichler house? Good. Anyway, that question ’s been answered. The problem I see in this report – there are a number of them – one of them is they spent a lot of time on remodeling, doing things to existing Eichlers and we have a neighbor who had three additions on the roof of an Eichler and they are atrocious. It was done years ago, before this was even a discussed issue. We now have three houses in our tract and there are six that have been torn down and then other types of architectural styles. My question to you and into this report is that, if you’ll note in one of the pages here, Page – get my glasses on – 78, adding a basement to an Eichler. Give me a break. I mean you tear the house down essentially so we build a new Eichler I peruse for a basement but it does say something in here very close. If a basement is added, residents should be aware that it may result in a house that is visibly higher than its neighbors. All the houses that are being built in Palo Alto now are in perimeter foundations. Nobody is building a slab house any more like an Eichler, so I might show to you that when this takes place -- this was on the cover of the 2000 – June 26, 2015, article on Eichler rising. I think some of you have seen it. Whoever the artist was that did it did the greatest extortion and it fits exactly what I’m trying to say. We’ll show you later. Eichler house, two-story house. Eichler house – I mean two- story house sitting on a slab foundation, that is a joke. In here it says that – there’s one article here – I have three-minutes so that’s why I’m moving fast. In neighborhoods that are not in fl ood zones, in my case it isn’t, residents – flood zone designs new residents so that the floor level heights conform to those of a surrounding Eichler residence. You can’t do that. An Eichler is that high off the ground at best. You start out with the perimeter foundation, you’re going like this; maybe higher. As you said in here, if you build a basement then you may have a higher one. Now with today's standards, no one wants an 8-foot high ceiling. They want a 9-foot plate one, they want something higher. I have one being built or there is one being built in our neighborhood, so we’re already starting with a foot and a half, maybe, at the basement or the floor level – foundation level, then you’ve got floor space, 9-foot ceiling, then you’ve got another floor and it’s a goner for an Eichler. So, this privacy issue and people looking down on you, we have it. We have one a diagonal (inaudible) out of the backyard of our house, one was built there. We don’t have a strong neighborhood organization like the so-called National Registration thing. My Eichler is a Jones and Emmons Eichler. It came even before the (inaudible) and as you know -- my problem with Eichlers is they built too many of them in Palo Alto but when they built them, there was a great and interesting intention why they built them. City of Palo Alto Page 3 Chair Bower: You’re three minutes…. Mr. Vently: It was an aesthetic… Chair Bower: Could you summarize? Mr. Vently: I’m going to summarize. Chair Bower: Thanks. Mr. Vently: Thank you. I’m very upset about the problem. I resent the fact that my house is not in a zone which has some privilege which the others evidently have in this so-called National Registration. I have a number of other things but thank you for your three minutes. Chair Bower: Thank you, Mr. Vently. Cynthia Ishimoto, please. I’m sorry, I’m not very good at pronouncing names. Ms. Cynthia Ishimoto: Ishimoto Chair Bower: Ishimoto and Steve Lewis is next up. Ms. Ishimoto: Let’s see, I’m going to admit that I’m kind of clueless as far as what the guidelines are. Chair Bower: Could you just say your name one more time. Ms. Ishimoto: My name is Cynthia Ishimoto. Chair Bower: Thank you. Ms. Ishimoto: I’m going to admit that I am clueless to what the guidelines are. I’m not able to get involved in this because – well, this is what I have. Let’s see, I’m going to backtrack. Eichlers, for those of you who don’t know it, is a mid-century modern house that has a lot of glass. I think one of the reasons why we have so many people going to the second level is because it has really poor storage. In my house, we have 5-foot closets for everybody and that’s really not enough. The slanting roof means you have even less storage and glass walls, even less storage. The reason I am here is because I’ve tried – I inquired about putting in an extension that would fit within the look – the aesthetics of an Eichler and I was told that I could not do it because of privacy rules. Basically, there’s a setback in my house, there are a garage, carport and a setback and I wanted to bring it forward. I was told I could not do it because of privacy reasons, even though I met the setback from the sidewalk, that was acceptable . So, I would like to find out what I can do and does the guidelines have anything that addresses what I want to do which is pull the one section of my house forward and have it aesthetically match my two neighbors? Is there anything that I can do to affect the guidelines or do I have an appeal process to figure out what I can do so that I can do more storage for my house? That’s it. Chair Bower: Great, thank you. Steve Lewis and John Melnychuk? Mr. John Melnychuk: (inaudible – spoke from the audience) Chair Bower: Thank you. Mr. Steve Lewis: Hi, my name is Steve Lewis and I’m here for my neighbor Pat Wayne. He and I have been talking about Eichlers for years and years. We moved in in ’56 and ’57. He basically found out and we looked at the research guideline. We like the guidelines as it was presented. We don’t like to see it as a rule. There are so many Eichlers as you go down our streets that wouldn’t match the rules as they are City of Palo Alto Page 4 now with the guidelines. Now you have (inaudible) two-stories, I think three or four in our neighbor. You’ve got ones that have been modified with different garage doors, different siding, different plumbing, heating and air conditioning on the roof that looks obnoxious but that’s the way they are. That’s the beauty of an Eichler and the guidelines do address a lot of the shortcomings of the Eichler homes. We’ve all learned to put up with them and that’s what makes them unique. It’s probably what, as we in Eichler’s like to believe, it is some of the best houses in the neighborhood. Thank you. Chair Bower: Thank you very much. John and then Diane Reklis. Mr. Melnychuk: I’m John Melnychuk, I live in Fair Meadow, I have a home there since 2002. It’s an original home built in 1952. I’m surrounded on either side by original owners from 1 952, quite elderly people. I was involved in an ad hoc group in 2011 to get a single -story overlay for Fair Meadow and our effort failed. This was something that happened with David Toy and five other members or five other neighborhood members. We collected our petitions, we got the City to send a survey out and at the last moment Vice Chairmen Tuma who was Chair or Vice Chair of the Architectural Board at the time said single-handedly that he would prefer to have things go forward only if 80% of respondents support the idea of a single-story overlay. We couldn’t understand this at the time, you can check the tapes. I was speaking a little more loudly than I am right now when I responded to that. We have a concern in our home in our neighborhood about slow emergent and creeping in of different architectural styles, two- story houses, that destroys our privacy and that destroys our daylight planes. Any of you would be welcome to come and visit our home to have a look for yourself to see what it feels likes ins ide and you could very easily be able to see what would happen with a two -story home next door or on either side of us. We’re glad that some guidelines are being developed here. For myself, I’m disappointed that we didn’t achieve a single-story overlay. I’d still like to see that happen. I don’t know – that’s beyond the scope of what your discussion is today but I’m putting my two cents in. Thank you so much for looking at this issue and I think that the Eichlers themselves are actually, as a group, valuabl e as historic elements in our City. We recognize that in our one neighborhood already and by attrition we’re getting Spanish style homes, two-stories with stucco, with tile roofs and so on. That’s diminishing the quality of the aesthetic in the neighborhood as far as I’m concerned. Thank you so much. Chair Bower: Thank you for those comments. Michael Neirenberg will follow Diane Reklis. Ms. Diane Reklis: Hi, I’m Diane Reklis, and I’ve lived in an Eichler for almost 40-years now. This document was really well done. There was an awful lot of good stuff in it but there’s a leaning towards a stand-alone ADU. I’ll address just ADUs and the stand along versus attached. In particular, the one in the rear and for some reason the ones in the rear or the detached could be 900-square feet. It was part of the house it would have to be 600. If you take 900, most of our houses are about twice that so you’re taking half the size of a current Eichler and sticking it in the backyard. Even beyond that, if its – the pictures make it look like a little playhouse, it’s not, it’s big. Let me take you on a walk in my neighborhood which is in a flood zone so if you put a standalone it has to start 3 or 4-feet up. If you tried to get there in the backyard, you either have to walk past every single bedroom where kids are likely to be sleeping to get there or you have to walk past three walls of glass or two walls of glass. Then you get to the backyard and you’re sitting behind the master bedroom which is another wall of glass. This doesn’t seem likes it’s going to be very nice. Those of you who haven’t lived in an Eichler, please come spend some real quality time in an Eichler. Don’t just walk through fast but imagine what it would be like. I think – I really favor ADUs but I hadn’t conceived till the middle of the night how big 900 -square feet is and think through moving them into the front, not separate units. I don’t think – they wouldn’t fit in our house – excuse me – our neighborhood at least but attached ones co uld go very nicely. Do – you’d have to move the setbacks in some cases but within reason that makes sense. Today’s kids aren’t there to play in the playground or play in the front yard. We’re not allowed to water the grass so – or not allowed, we shouldn’t so setbacks don’t make as much sense as they did 60-years ago. Make them smaller, make the houses make sense and please, really make the back-yard ones not very logical in most neighborhoods. Thank you. City of Palo Alto Page 5 Chair Bower: Great, thank you for those comments. Alright, Michael Nierenberg; Ming Zhao will be following. Mr. Michael Nierenberg: I’m Michael Nierenberg and I’ve lived in an Eichler for over 40-years. We’ve remodeled three times and put on a second story all (inaudible) with the neighborhoods ok, the design and basically kept it as an Eichler with those changes. So, I’m actually here altruistically and this doesn’t apply to me anymore but I’m concerned because I really think the study and the process is tremendously flawed. There are 2,700 Eichlers in Palo Alto. The people who constructed the paperwork had basically interviewed a 150. Of the three meetings only 90 people have attended those and of – now I didn’t see the latest emails but I reviewed every 233 emails prior to this, only 27 people sent those in so I don’t think this adequate representation. By the way, I’ve spoken to major real estate people in Palo Alto who have never even heard what was going on so despite the fact that this has supposable been publicized I totally disagree. More importantly, I think freezing the Eichlers in time really can have a potential problem. As new materials come along, new looks and things, we might be missing out on siding, roofing, things that actually can make our homes better and not worse as we’ve do ne in our case. There’s also a statement this is not about a single-story overlay and yet on page 90 – let’s see 74, there’s a picture of two Eichlers with a line going across and something above it on the structure which obviously is saying we are talking about a single-structure overlay so make no (inaudible) about it. We’ve also heard that this is voluntary at nauseam, it is not. There is a three-tiered process, in your notes, how this can actually become something that the City can mandate and dictate and I really think that’s a problem. I’m not here to address second -story or single-story overlay but I will say there are many multi - generational families that are now being prejudicially left out of these communities. They can’t live in Eichlers and I do want to remind you there’s something called the Anti-NIMBY law which I think was passed in California in 1982 where you can’t discriminate against neighb orhoods in terms of moving forward with development. It seems to me that this skirts that pretty closely and there have already been two suits, Lafayette and Berkeley, that have been lost. So, I would like to see us put our money into other things rather than this and not be in court over these things if they do become regulations. My concern truly is I’m not sure there’s been enough publicity and enough transparency . If the community truly wants to freeze Eichlers in time, I’m totally with that but I don’t think that’s the case. I also think that’s wrong to do so thank you for listening. Chair Bower: Thank you for those comments. Ming Zhao followed by Dr. Mandel. Pardon me for mispronouncing that. Mr. Ming Zhao: Hi, my name is Ming Zhao and I live in an Eichler house. I like to concur with the previous – what the previous gentleman said. I don’t think it’s the right thing to freeze the Eichler in time. Especially – I mean I like certain design aspect of the Eichler house but I really don’t like the certain choices made by Eichler. For example, the flat roof, it might be good in look but it doesn’t really – it really costs a lot for long-term – long time maintenance because of lack of adequate space. For example, last year I had to do some remodeling for my house. I had to open the roof because there was no other way to run the electrical lines to add some lights and because the roof was open I had to reroof and because we have the pipe running on the roof because there was no other place to run the pipes oth er than digging in the ground. So, -- but the roofer told me that we had to remove the pipes before they applied the – before they can reroof and then after the roof is done they had to add the pipes back which cost me about $5,000, while adding nothing to the house, just to reroof. It’s an Eichler house and that’s this kind of hidden cost that’s kind of been inherited from this short card that was taken when the original house was made. I think this – I don’t think we should try to mandate certain design choice just because some people like that or some people don’t like that. Other than that, I don’t have other additional opinions other than what the previous gentleman – Michael said. I really appreciate his comments. Thanks. Thanks for the effort. Chair Bower: Thank you. Dr. Mandel followed by Sunita Verma. Mr. Manis Mandel: Good morning everyone. My name is name is Manis Mandel, I’m a homeowner in Fair Meadow tract. I’ve been reading these guidelines since I think October (inaudible) and they seemed to City of Palo Alto Page 6 have changed. On page 26 there’s a big section called CC&Rs and this says this Eichler Neighborhood Guideline supports and expands upon Eichler tracts CC&Rs where appropriate. Chair Bower: Excuse me – yeah, can you… Mr. Mandel: Sorry. Chair Bower: Thank you. Mr. Mandel: On page 26 of the document of the final draft it says the Eichler Neighborhood Design Guideline document supports and expands upon the Eichler tract CC&Rs where appropriate and in adherence to the current City planning code. In Appendix A, Turnbull and Page described in detail how they went through and found these Eichler tracts and they discussed the CC&Rs but these no evidence the CC&Rs even exist so I began digging into it and I asked Director French like do we have any CC&Rs on file. Director French told me that they are aware of at least three CC&Rs or of more than three CC&Rs and of course I believe her. I – when I bought my family house in 19 – in 2005, my title did not have a CC&Rs so I began digging into the CC&R. One of the previous gentlemen described the failed SSO from Fair Meadow and that documented (inaudible) referred to a 1951 CC&R but after a property search, I found a 1952 CC&R signed not by Director Holms but by the San Jose Abstract Entitle Company data 7, June 1952 stating the following. “It is expressly agreed that the said declaration of CC&Rs are terminated as to and do not apply to are in any way affect, Fair Meadow.” There is no CC&R in Fair Meadow so for 66-years Fair Meadow has lived free and clear of any restrictions of any CC&Rs. After 66 -years of freedom, suddenly there’s a document which claims to put new guidelines, it doesn’t make sense. The law has already given individual rights to the homeowners of Fair Meadow that they are free. These rules, even though voluntary, they need to stay voluntary. There should be no discussion, there should be not slide presented saying that there could be a three-step process. There should be no (inaudible) attempt at all and if only three CC&Rs or four CC&Rs exist, we should change this document and say that out of the 32 tracts only four of them should be using the guidelines. The rest of them, because they are free, should not be subject to any guidelines. Let the individuals have their rights. There is no point of having overlays. A new (inaudible) was added which states the following, this is on page – sorry I’m looking at it – page 14. It says that… Chair Bower: Excuse me, we’re at 3-minutes so please (inaudible)(crosstalk) Mr. Mandel: It says the prior guidelines would be used by the planning staff. I think it’s unnecessary. The (inaudible) staff does not need any extra information because these are voluntary. Why on earth should the (inaudible) staff – so please remove all the overreaching document statements from this document. There’s just too much overage, it is unnecessary. Give us the freedom to live our lives. Thank you. Chair Bower: Thank you for sharing that. Sunita Verma followed by Margaret Murphy. Ms. Sunita Verma: Hi, my name is Sunita Verma, I live on Ross Road in a two-story Eichler house since 2004 and like the gentleman said, we haven’t had enough – I got this on Tuesday night and the meeting is this morning. I don’t know – you can see how many people are not here who would like to speak, that’s not very much notice. We need – if you want impute from the citizens, you need to give us more notice. We can’t just show up and – from work and come show up here 8:30 in the morning. There should be different meetings at different times and the notice should be at least 2 -week if not longer and like as mentioned I live on Ross Road. There’s a lot of stuff going on there that we were never notified but that’s different. What I want to say is if there are already guidelines that exist – I live right next door to a one-story single house and I’ve talked to my neighbors and we have no privacy issues. Our house is two-story, the one next to us is two-story and on the other side, they are not. So, if there are guidelines that are existing to protect those for privacy and another thing, why do we need to spend more money from the City to make more guidelines if they already exist? Let’s take that money and use it for something else that we need for our City. For our teenagers or the youth who need some place to go hang out. There’s nothing for the youth to hang out. There are no places for them to go hang out except City of Palo Alto Page 7 the mall or the down (inaudible). Let’s save our money for the other issues that are more important than spending money on something that already exists. That’s all I have to say, thank you. Chair Bower: Thank you for that comment. Margaret Murphy and I think there’s one other – is there – are there any more cards there? Ms. Margaret Murphy: My name is Margaret Murphy, I received this notice yesterday and I would like to say that I live in an Eichler on Louis Road. I would like to say that I concur with the comment regarding notice. This is an issue that is very important to me, it is very important to my neighbors and we were not given due notice. Please provide more notice and of course we will provide comme nts in email and in other forms. I do not believe this was correct. I would like to concur with Michaela and the others who have said that the study perhaps was not broad enough, did not include enough examples. There are so many Eichlers, so many different experiences in this City. I think that you have a unique opportunity to do more in this area. I concur with my colleague who just spoke about the use of time and use of money. However, I disagree, I do think that this affects many, many people in this City in many different ways and I encourage you to look for solutions that include homeowners who have been here for a very long time and like their neighborhoods the way that they are, as well as newer homeowners and their concerns. I ask you to look at this seriously and not abandon this and I think that you’ve made some steps in the right direction but I encourage you to continue and to get broader input. Thank you. Chair Bower: Thank you for those comments. The last card that I have is from Sheila Chang. Ms. Sheila Chang: My name is Sheila Chang, I’ve lived in my Eichler home for 30-years. Faced Edgwood Shopping Center more and I would say -- I came here to just listen and now I have some comments. The first one that I’d like to say is the mention about CC&R. My house is two-stories and they built the second story in 1964. My house was built in 1954, the tract says that area is 1956, actually mine is ’54. So, 1964 they built the second story by the previous owner and we bought that and it has been already 30-years. So, that means what’s a CC&R? A couple years ago, many – I can’t remember – (inaudible) would team up again Edgewood Shopping Center’s new owner because of a couple of reasons. The first because they built a low-income housing and a big market and (inaudible) school doesn’t want more low-income kids. So, they said well we’re overfull and then my neighbor, they have a (inaudible) say oh, this Eichler. Oh, (inaudible) going to flood into our area so see we better sign so I signed. I had them over to my place given this drink and I signed the paper. We do a lot of (inaudible) and try against to damage an Eichler but actually, I’m glad we don’t have this (inaudible) like overlay and you can build a s econd-story in that area. Eichler is very old, the structure is not very stable for two-story and also not very good for (inaudible) like termites or something like that. You ask me do I like Eichler? Yes. Do I appreciate this? I would say yes because I follow Sunnyvale when I say oh, awesome they have guidelines. Palo Alto has no guidelines. We have guidelines, that’s wonderful but I’m not saying I stab it and say don’t do anything. You have to keep this one with the worst foundation and a lot of things are not insulated properly. I wanted to say thank you very much to make this a guideline option and also don’t believe a CC&R. Everybody followed that because they really want to keep that style, keep everything as is. We abuse old CC&R back to the day Eichler or the builder made that. That’s just my experience, 30-years. Thank you. Chair Bower: Thank you for those comments and thank all of you who have come today. We hardly ever have an audience and I think all of the input that you have provided is useful. Let’s take this back to the Board for discussion and I guess we’ll close the public hearing portion of this. We can reopen it again if we need too. Board Members, comments, questions? Martin. Board Member Bernstein: Thank you, Chair Bower. I would like first of all to thank Amy and her staff for the email blast that have been going out to the neighborhoods so thanks for that. I know there have been requests from the neighbors to say what’s going on and so thanks for your good response on that. I appreciate it. There have been a couple members of the public who spoke about getting a notice only one or two days earlier but I think you – things were sent out more than one or two days ago, is that correct? City of Palo Alto Page 8 Ms. French: Correct. We – this is the first time that we’ve sent notice to all of the Eichler addresses in the City. So, to that extent, yes, we have not been sending them out for the last year to every single Eichler address so this is the first time. We were able to get the work behind that to get all the addresses and sent that out but it wasn’t two days ago. Perhaps the holidays… Female: (inaudible – off mic) Ms. French: It's not a requirement, it’s a courtesy flyer that we’ve sent out. Again, these are voluntary – these are voluntary, not mandatory so there’s no obligation to send out. We’ve done what we could. Board Member Bernstein: Ok well thank you for that response. Board and Chair Bower, I have – I went through all the – in the orange mark up one, I went page by page and I had comments on the different pages and each comment will result in also a question for staff. Chair Bower: Ok, go through, that’s what we’re here for. Board Member Bernstein: Thank you so much. I’m just going to go each – I went through the orange markup page and then – because those – that’s new wording. I’ll just start with the question here and I’m just going to go right through the sequence here. I’ll say the page numbers for reference so on page number 13 on the right-hand side it says the guidelines are designed to help the City of Palo Alto Planning and Community Environment staff and review bodies in determining the appropriateness of the proposed work. My question where about determining appropriateness; does that mean if the Planning Department decided that it’s not appropriate, does that mean an applicant then could not proceed with a building permit? Ms. French: This is a general statement and – where a National Register District or single-story overlay district, it is imposed or it is already placed on one of these tracts. It could be a conversation but no, there’s no – nothing mandatory about this. It’s a broad statement and it’s not intended to be punitiv e or mandatory. Board Member Bernstein: Great, ok thank you for that. Then -- let’s see – then on the next page, 14, on the right – on the left-hand side it says the guidelines are currently voluntary, just ask you mentioned also. Then it also says on that left-hand side, so the purpose of this is to offer advice and that’s a great thing. Education is fantastic. The middle it does say – the question says my home is not an Eichler but I live across the street with an Eichler. Will I be subject to design gui delines and the author of this document says possibly. So, that still leaves some question and some doubt for an applicant who’s trying to make concrete decisions. It goes on to say, however, while your home may not be an Eichler, it may be within – so, there – so the fact that things are voluntary I think is – when things say possibly and may, again it's from someone who’s trying to say well, am I affect it or not? The language of this may be not so clear. Ms. French: Yes, actually I – Martin, thank you for that. I am looking at this as well and seeing that on the first part about the – about are they mandatory? It does say the guidelines will be used concurrently with the Individual Review Guidelines. That could not take place unless – until the Council adopts an ordinance that connects these guidelines to the Individual Review process for two-story homes. So, we will need to change these before these go to Council to clarify that they only – in every case, only by Council adoption of an ordinance will these be in anyway utilized by staff for review. Board Member Bernstein: Ok, thank you. Page 18, the right-hand side it talks about – it says, for example, residents and homeowners and properties in Greenmeadow, Gables National Register Historic Districts may consider a stricter interpretation of the guidance. That would take a property owner initiative for that to become a stricter interpretation. For it to become – because right now it’s not mandatory so a property owner initiative is required before any of these things become more strict. Just a comment. City of Palo Alto Page 9 Ms. French: Right, so in the event that there are CC&Rs and the neighborhood is – does have an Architectural Control Committee, I’m only aware of two of those in the City, they could choose, it’s voluntary again, to utilize these guidelines for those neighborhoods. Board Member Bernstein: Great, thank you for that. On page 21 it talks about Individual Review process and the ordinance says that’s only involved in second story additions of a certain scope. The IR also focuses on privacy, scale, massing, and streetscape and that’s fine. That’s a good process for that. When I read the 132 or 232 comments, it seemed like the dominant theme was the idea of privacy so Individual Review I think already addresses that issue so that’s already taken care of I believe, the idea of privacy. One of the members of the public mentioned about a one -story and the idea – the question of privacy. I’m imaging say if the floor level has to be raised to 3 -feet because of flood zone requirements. So, that puts someone eyes at 8-feet above the ground and for privacy, you can have a 6-foot fence and then you can still do a 24-inch decorative thing above that. So, actually you can have a fence that’s also at 8 -feet high so for one story, I hear issues of privacy but one-story, the privacy is already solved by a fence I believe because you can only – if the eye level is at 8-feet. I think privacy is already addressed so I just heard a lot of those comments from the public so just my comment that I think privacy is already addressed in the ordinance. Male: Not for the second-levels. Board Member Bernstein: So, IR actually involves – speaking through the Chair, the IR does address privacy issues already and window locations and all that so I think privacy is already through the ordinances. Next is page 27 on the left-hand side, it talks about properties eligible for listing in the National Register. My three questions are – let’s see – the question I wrote down was are any Eichler homes shown on page 25, those are all the Eichler tracts, are any of those a listed historic resource? Are any – ok. I think the answer is no. There’s no… Ms. French: No. Board Member Bernstein: Yeah so there’s no historic resource so there for any protection of or regulation that may involve the Historic Resources Board or the Historic Preservation Ordinance. That ordinance will not apply to any of these buildings because none of them are listed as individuals (inaudible)… Ms. French: Correct. The HRB and historic review process does not apply to National Register Eichler Districts in the City because they are not listed on our local inventory. Board Member Bernstein: So, the HRB would never ever see any proposal that comes – any change to a historic building – any change to an Eichler building would never come to the Historic Resources Board. Ms. French: It just so happens – I’ll just say this – that the two National Register Districts are both single- story overlays so there’s never going to be a Discretionary Review for a two -story home proposed in one of those districts. Board Member Bernstein: Fine, good, ok. Alright, thank you. Going back to one of the other comme nt that I think two members of the public made about the idea of historic preservation and I think the phrase was frozen in time. We do have at least one project or one building in Palo Alto that is frozen in time that the community has certainly embraced it to be frozen in time. That’s the Hewlett Packard garage and it’s down to -- the original nails are still there. So, there’s an example of a historic preservation where it’s frozen in time so that’s certainly appropriate. The – a couple members of the public mentioned about not having their Eichler homes be considered frozen in time. I just want to make one quick comment about what is historic about some of these neighborhoods and I think one of the historic issues is from a social point of view. From say the 1950s, it was common to have extended families living in these homes. Meaning you needed square footage so any restrictions to say a house can – has to be frozen in time is – can become pretty restrictive. Again, we’ve heard many applicants come City of Palo Alto Page 10 before our Board that the reason we want to expand any house is that for multi -generational. So, not having it frozen in time, I support that idea of not having that – not having an Eichler house be frozen in time. Thank you for that. A few more – I apologize but again we just got this information also. Chair Bower: Should I set the three-minute timer? Board Member Bernstein: Page 28 talks about preservation incentives. As you’ve you heard me speak publicly, I’m in huge favor of preservation incentives. There’s also talk about the Historic Building Code so can a house not listed in the local register use the California Historic – so all these homes that are in National Register Districts. Can they use the California Historic Building Code? I don’t know the ans wer to that. Alright, the – page 29, it says – my question that I wrote here was – oh, before – I guess that’s continuing that same question. Before – awe, it says on page 29 on the left-hand side that a building may qualify as a historic resource if it falls within one of these categories. Again, I guess that’s the requirement of the property owner to actually apply for historic statues before any historic benefits can accrue. We’ve already today that there’s no Eichler building is on the Historical Regist er. Almost done here. I already made the comment about the Individual Review process in response to privacy. One of the guidelines on page 67 does show horizontal or vertical siding so that’s good that there’s flexibility on that. Getting toward the end; Page 73, is there any prohibition on an Eichler house being demolished? So, once a say building permits for replacement building is – is there any prohibition on an Eichler house being demolished? I don’t think there is. Ms. French: No, again because none of our Eichlers, even those in the National Register District, are on our inventory locally so therefore, demolition is allowed. We do have a rule in Palo Alto that you have to have a replacement home, because we don’t want to have the disappearing of our housing stock and for other reasons, so maximum lot size etc. Board Member Bernstein: Sure, great, thank you for that. Page 74, I see the word -- on the left-hand side, there’s a word perceived height. I’m a huge proponent of that idea that it’s not so much how high something is but what’s the perception and that’s where the IR process can get involved in. Three more comments here. Page 107, special considerations for National Historic District, we’ve heard (inaudible) representative of the Architectural Control Committees for the different neighborhoods. I – my hats off to them. I think they do a pretty fantastic job in helping speak to and educate and hear different points of view about what is deemed by that Committee and perhaps in other neighbor representatives on what’s appropriate for that neighborhood? So, it sounds like there is some architectural control already in effect. I know the City of Palo Alto does not get involved in those private conversations but it looks like there is some good care put into those Architectural Control Committees. So, that’s a good way for them plus any of these voluntary design guidelines, I think that’s a good educational aspect here. Page 109, I’m glad to see the comment about the doorknobs being put in. If accessibility is a concern, consider a level – a lever handle with a simple unornamental contemporary look. I’m glad for that clarification. I do see on page 110 and this will be my last comment about on the right-hand side is say the two existing National Register Districts, Greenmeadow and Green Gables, also have a single-story overlay statue. It says; however, second-story additions are not encouraged in any historic district that may be designated in the future as a measure to retain the integrity of the d istrict. I will suggest that two-story – a second story, there probably are designs that could be added and still maintain the integrity of the district. I would need to be obviously very sensitive addition. Again, we have the IR process and other reviews that can be done for that. Those are my comments based on the comments we received in orange. Thank you. Chair Bower: Thank you, Martin, for doing a detailed review of this document. Roger, you have any comments? Board Member Kohler: Not yet, no. Chair Bower: Oh, Emily, please. City of Palo Alto Page 11 Ms. Emily Vance, Historic Planner: Yes, thank you. Good morning everyone. Just to speak to your earlier comment Chair member Bernstein about the California Historic Building Code. Just to clarify in that the California Historic Building Code is – provides alternative building regulations when dealing with qualified historic resources. A qualified historic resource is any existing or future resource listed on a Local, State or National Register. So, the contributing resources within those two National Registered Districts would certainly be considered qualified historic resources so they could take advantage of the Historic Building Code. The only thing to note is that since they are not on the Local Register which we discussed – the Local Inventory - that they could not take advantage of other incentives offered. Chair Bower: So, following up on that, we have discussed whether or not – we have discussed the floodplain issue as it relates to historic properties and could you just for – put into the record here how that applies? I think if I remember correctly the flood zone – if the building is a recognized historic building, then the flood zone regulations are suspended or don’t apply? Ms. Vance: Yes, it’s something along those lines dealing with FEMA and federal flood insurance program where historic resources could be exempted from certain restrictions on basements in flood zones. Chair Bower: Just a – it’s clear as I understand this if you have a historic resource – if your building is designated or recognized as a historic resource, the need to comply with a raised first-floor elevation above floor plane would not apply. Is that correct? Ms. Vance: I believe that’s the interpretation but again, like we said, just for qualified historic resources so that wouldn’t be true for all Eichlers. It would just be for the ones in the two National Register Districts. Chair Bower: The reason I bring this up is if for the two Nationally Recognized Districts where they to be added to the City’s inventory which I have said publicly many times I think that they should be added. Then the floor plane issues which relate directly to the privacy issues that many people have spoken to both today and in public comments are somewhat mitigated because you’re not going to have those differentiated elevations. Ok. Ms. Vance: Yeah, that’s true. Chair Bower: Thank you. Alright, I’m just going to go across the Board here. Margaret, any comments? Board Member Wimmer: I was just listening very carefully to all the public comments and trying to really understand some of your sentiments and thoughts. It sounded like there was a mix of people who were in support and some people who were maybe not. Maybe feeling a little threated by the guidelines and that maybe would preempt them from doing something that they would ultimately want to do. I think – especially responding to the ADU comments, I think there are some cases whe re the City puts out these guidelines for instance for the ADU new ordinance that we have. Sometimes those regulations or those parameters might not be applicable to for instance an Eichler house that you feel like the 900 -square feet is too big for the backyard. I think those people who own Eichler properties, they would have to find a balance themselves in what’s appropriate for their unique site, their unique property, their unique situation and adapt those available ADU ordinances for them. I think putt ing an ADU in the front yard would probably be disruptive of the overall neighborhood character so I think – I guess what I am trying to say is that there are these ordinances that are out there that may not specifically apply to your unique individual property. I think it's up to the property owners to interrupt what is appropriate for their own well being for they own property. I think also in terms of the CC&Rs, I hadn’t really – I wasn’t really aware of a lot of the CC&Rs that might have existed when these Eichler neighborhoods originated but I think that these guidelines – they’re not necessarily a replacement or they’re not necessarily meant to be a new CC&R. These guidelines are in response to the fact that these Eichler neighborhoods are becoming historic because of their age and because they’ve been around for a significant amount of time. That the City wants to preserve that mid-century modern architectural style that is prevalent in Palo Alto , so these guidelines are an effort to preserve and to guide preservation of these neighborhoods. Not necessarily City of Palo Alto Page 12 meant as a replacement or a new CC&R that is suddenly imposed upon you. So, those are my two comments. Chair Bower: Thank you. Michael - any additions? Board Member Makinen: Well, there was – I can’t recall which page it's on but there was some discussion about if this goes to Council a three-tier approach. I think that… Chair Bower: It’s coming up. Board Member Makinen: Yeah. Chair Bower: I want to discuss that after we made comments. Board Member Makinen: I think that has a lot of people concerned that this is becoming a requirement and it’s not. It’s just a voluntary type activity that we’re promoting so I think there are some real concerns for the public when they see that. Is that yeah, we’re calling it voluntary but is it really voluntary? I think there’s a feeling of – I won’t call it a threat but some feeling that they may be more than what we advertised as voluntary. Chair Bower: You – any comments? Roger. Board Member Kohler: Well, I’d just like to comment that the group of folks here today , and there were a lot of different comments expressed by all the different people. That’s what towns are made of , a whole bunch of different people so where some that spoke today that are very adamant about they want it a certain way, others didn’t care, others were annoyed that they would have to worry about this and so it’s very interesting group. We on the Board just try to do the best we can within what we hear from homeowners and staff and ourselves. It’s – in fact, I’m just curious if you could just maybe state the purpose of today's meeting, just out of my – so I can readjust my – what I’ve heard and what we’re… Ms. French: Sure. The purpose of today's meeting is to receive a recommendation from the HRB on these guidelines. This is – we’ve been at this for a little while, you have – you continued this from January 25th to this date so that you could see the modifications done by our consultant following the comments you made on January 25th, following the comments made at the public workshop on January 18 th, the emails we received through our Eichler inbox that you have all received At Places on January 25 th and in this staff report. The goal is to finish with the HRB; then we start the existing process of re-notifying the neighborhood and seeing which agenda this will land on with the Council. Currently, we’ve targeted April 2nd and we’ll see what happens with emails to Council on all of this. Once it gets closer to Council, then people really come out of the woodwork, even if we’ve been at it for a year. Board Member Kohler: This is kind of the – what we’re talking about, this booklet which becomes the guiding light for everybody when talking about Eichler neighborhoods. I say there are neighborhoods because there’re several – all kinds of groups of Eichlers around town, right? Ms. French: There’s a map inside the guidelines that shows all of the Eichler tracts. Board Member Kohler: Yeah, ok. It’s not just the big one on Alma, it’s… Chair Bower: No. Board Member Kohler: … (inaudible). Chair Bower: I’d like to make a few comments and then we’ll move towards crafting a motion. As I – first of all, I went to the first public meeting. I couldn’t attend the other two but it was pretty clear that the community members that did go to those meetings had two primary concerns and reviewing the 236 City of Palo Alto Page 13 comments that are part of our package today. Those concerns popped up to the top and the number one concern is the issue of privacy with additions that would provide a direct line of sight into other – from a new project into an existing house. That ties in with the second most commented on an issue which is second-story additions. They are really one in the same issue. I think that these guidelines, as in this final form that we have here today -- and I don’t, by the way, mean to suggest that this is the last time these guidelines are going to be addressed because guidelines are, I think, of guidelines as dynamic and they do change. So, while I don’t think these are the perfect approach, I think these are a good start and as we saw from Professorville Guidelines, those guidelines helped inform these guidelines in ways that I think make both of them better. The next item that was of concern to people who wrote is how these guidelines will be enforced and those concerns are focused on property values, on the flexibility of design changes, how new property – new development will impact their existing houses. My experience in the seminars that I have attended, that actually apply directly to this, have informed me that formation of historic districts actually increases the value of the property. Los Angeles did a 10-year study of this and developed a very comprehensive ordinance much more thorough and restrictive I think in a sense than our guidelines. They found that in every case the property values in those areas increased. The thing that they discovered was that if you are in a district like an Eichler district -- Los Angeles has different districts -- and some developer came in and bought a property next to you , tore down a house that conforms to the district style and then built something totally different. The property values next door to those on either side and across the street all went down because of the new development. They were frankly surprised at that and surprised that when these overlays went into effect in Los Angeles, they raised the values of the properties. I’m not – obviously everything in California is now more expensive but what really was significant was they demonstrated that was a real value. So, I think these have – these guidelines – and again, these are guidelines which are intended to set expectations about development. They don’t demand a certain style but they inform the designers who are going to be working in this neighborhood -- they are different neighborhoods -- about what is expected to – in the new designs to conform or to compliment – there are lots of other historic preservation words that we use but basically to compliment what’s already there. I’m – my colleagues on the Board who are architects and designers I’m sure would never want to design a project that wasn’t conforming to and complementary to a historic district. This is an attempt to really help both the new development ideas and the existing architecture to live in some harmony. I think it’s important for the community to understand that historic district designation again provides a lot of benefits. People I think are afraid of that, that sort of designation because they think it limits their options. I think from a 40-year career as a building contractor in this community, that had I known about the historic – if we had the Historic Building Code, that is would have been much easier to do a number of projects that I built but they were – it wasn’t available so there are incentives in this document that help us move I think the conversation away from limiting property values but instead enhancing them and enhancing community. By the way, Eichlers, as all buildings are, they are a living document of our history and people who live in them don’t necessarily – I think they live in them because they like the design, maybe it’s affordable but most important they are preserving what Palo Alto was 50-60-years ago, just like we’re preserving the Hewlett Packard garage, because that’s something that was very important to our development here. Almost done; I think this – I’m hoping this – these guidelines are our step in helping to inform the community and I fully expect that there will be a vigorous discussion at Council because there always is when these kinds of things are adopted. I want the Board to turn to page 56 in our packet which has the four – I’m sorry we don’t have this up on the screen so members in t he audience can participate. This is Attachment B in our packet, it is the regulatory – it is a path forward – yeah, it’s 56, down on the right-hand corner of our packet. It’s attachment B. I don’t know if you can get to that. Well, Amy can get it up on th e screen so that everyone – there is it, I see it. I’d like the Board to focus on how we – when we create a motion, how we can direct Council or not direct them but simply inform them about how we feel they should move forward. There are four options in Tier 0, 1, 2, and 3 and just to review them. Zero is nothing, do nothing. Tier One is an Individual Review integration and privacy guidelines and you can see that that’s adopting ordinances and using this in tandem with IR Review. Tier Two is a voluntary Eichler overlay district as this is described here as EO which is Eichler overlay. So, you create a district similar to single -story overlay districts and then you’d use it entire document – this entire document or a portion of it and applying it to new homes or secondary additions. Also, address erosion of support for single -story overlay in the Eichler thing. Then the Tier Three option is regulatory options which is develop standards enhance City of Palo Alto Page 14 for privacy, height, size, setbacks, second stories, give legal certainty with maximums for discretionary applications and then for use for other regulatory discretion process. I’d like the Board to move – to actually include one or more of these tiers in our recommendation to the Council. Is there discussion? Martin. Board Member Bernstein: Thank you, Chair Bower. I’d like to tag onto your comment about the historic districts and the value that has been to property owners. Do any members of the public who have said they are concerned about a replacement house being non -Eichler compatible building. So, there is now – in the IR Guidelines, there’s no requirement of style. It’s only for massing and scale and privacy issues. Tagging onto Chair Bower’s comment about districts, just as neighborhoods – two neighborhoods have gotten together enough support to apply for and get granted a National Historic District. That’s, I think, a great step toward any regulations tied with incentives of what to do for modifying or building a new house. We’ve seen great success in Professorville District for example where property values are pretty incredible there. There are – for many of the homes there, there’s like I think about eleven different incentives that property owners can employ to actually do things that bottom line actually increase the value of the property and still maintain a district. I would encourage any Eichler neighborhoods, if they are concerned about well what’s the design sense of the neighborhood, to consider applying for National Districts too. Then the incentives then can – it’s a lot easier for incentives to be applied so that’s a good way for neighborhood preservation. That is my comment to support that idea. Chair Bower: Sorry, let me ask staff, there is a resolution – a draft resolution, should we be commenting on that? Page 53 in our packet. Ms. French: Yes, it’s prepared so that you can weigh in on the wording there. This is coming to the Council to describe – I mean basically it gives a little history and the fact that were directed to do this by Council. They decided to spend their money on it over a year ago, almost two years ago now. Well, December of 2016 they authorized us to proceed with a contract to do exactly what we’ve done. It then gives a bit of a history, it talks about the Comprehensive Plan policie s there in that Section H which are findings basically to talk about policy L-1.1 for instance, “Ensure that new or remodeled structures are compatible with the neighborhood and adjacent structures.” That’s an existing Comprehensive Plan policy and there are at least seven more policies referenced. This is the new Comprehensive Plan that was adopted by Council in November and became effective in December. Then there’s a finding there about being consistent and compatible with applicable purposes of the R-1 zone so there are three bullets there. So, if you want to take a moment to read those and let us know if there’s any issue with those statements related to what we’re doing here , that would be great. Board Member Bernstein: Chair, I forgot one question. Does this – not a proclamation – resolution – proposed resolution, does it tie into any of the Tier 0, 1, 2, or 3? Do you know? Ms. French: It does not. It is designed to be specifically about the guidelines alone as a document – as a voluntary document. What would go to Council, we’re targeting April 2nd at this point, would be again this same chart that you’re seeing here to give a flavor of options, Tier 0-3. There would be no ordinance going to Council in April. They would have to direct staff to go and write an ordinance to come back to make it effectively useful with the Individual Review for two-story homes or any other potential options. If they want us to come back with an Eichler overlay option for people in neighborhoods – those neighborhoods to volunteer to be – to get together and select themselves, then that would happen at that point. So, that’s another year in the making, I think. Board Member Bernstein: Thank you. Chair Bower: I’d like to do two – I’m going to split these up. I want to consider … Council Member Holman: David? Chair Bower: Oh, I’m sorry. Council Member Holman. City of Palo Alto Page 15 Council Member Holman: Hi, I just want to say a couple of things for the public. Going back to the genesis of these guidelines, how it came about wasn’t because staff or the Council were looking for more work. These came about because a good number of people got together who live in Eichler neighborhoods and wanted some guidance and some assist by the City to help preserve their neighborhoods. It wasn’t about – to borrow somebody’s term – it wasn’t about freezing anything in time but it was concerned about the kinds of development additions and new construction that was happening in their Eichler neighborhoods. So, this came out – this was a grassroots effort that brought this to the Council’s attention that caused this effort to happen. So, that’s the springboard from which this came. The other thing, as I’ve been on the Council now for this is my 9th year and on Planning Commission for 8 ½-years before that, I hope people will look at this with two minds. There are people who are very supportive of these and they’re not perfect. I don’t agree with everything in them. Nobody is going to be 100% satisfied but look at these with two minds. These could be very helpful in precluding – the reason I mentioned the 17-years I’ve been doing this is because there are appeals that come out of people not having guidance like this in front of them and provided. So, we have neighbors fighting neighbors and neighbors and neighbors fighting neighbors and neighbors because of new construction additions and such in these Eichler neighborhoods. I see these as a resource to help abate those appeals and those battles within neighborhoods. They are – I don’t know what the Council – full Council is going to do about some aspect of this being an ordinance or all voluntary. At this point in time, they’re all voluntary, Council will weigh in on that, the community will weigh in on that but I hope people will look at these like I say with two minds. Of like trying to help neighborhoods stay neighborhoods and I don’t mean that just architecturally, I mean it also in terms of relationships. Again, I’m hoping people can hold two minds with this and understand the genesis of this was from people who live in Eichler neighborh oods. I think it also would be helpful if staff could provide in conjunction with this to the public is what the information is that – because I think it is documented, the information that Chair Bower was providing about the value of historic neighborhoods. What it means to be in a historic neighborhood and it isn’t a no change situations. It’s being the respectful situation and providing guidance and also to provide what the incentives are that the City has for historic properties should any of these dist ricts want to become – be added to the inventory or if other neighborhoods want to be considered for addition. I think the options and alternatives need to be provided from the various perspectives and I appreciate very much the Chair’s comments. I hope that’s helpful to the public hopefully. Chair Bower: Well, I think we all hope it’s helpful for the public. Thank you for that comment. I’d like to make one other comment just so that the homeowners who are here get a sense of perspective. I own a building in the Liberty Hills Historic District in San Francisco. That’s a Victorian district and our – the value of that property in the 10-years we’ve owned it has skyrocketed not just because it's in San Francisco in the Mission but because the entire district is protected. So, when builders – actually developers buy the buildings and several of them very close to us have been purchased, they can’t tear down the Victorians. They maintain the facades, which is really what we’re talking here - about a façade issue. None of these guidelines do – address anything that goes on inside the building. They don’t, frankly, really regulate anything that goes – any alterations that would occur on the outside of the side yard and the rear yards - with the exception of ADUs and that’s a whole different issue. So, what we’re talking about here is trying to maintain the front façade of these neighborhoods. I mean obviously with additions and so my Victorian building is not frozen in time. It is – has been modernized to the maximum extent possible but we’ve retailed all of the features that made it attractive to us when we bought it and made the historic district a recognized space. I’m not just sitting up here as the Chair of the Committee saying we ought to do this stuff to my neighbors because I don’t understand what goes on. I have a really good understanding of what a historic district does and the benefits and they are substantial. So, that said, I’d like to talk – I’d like the Board to consider – by the way, I’m not the only person on this Board that has – owns historic building. Michael does, Martin does and Beth Bunnenberg who was on the Board also in a building that could be considered historic and Corey does so we all have different personal relationships with properties that have designations. I want to talk about this Attachment B because I’d like the Board to consider this as one motion and I’d to recommend a pathway for the Council. I think that’s what we – we can help the Council evaluate their – and do their job if we can give them direction based on our experience here. I don’t want to -- we’re at 10:10. I would like to try to move this along quickly so we City of Palo Alto Page 16 can go back to work. Any comments? Let’s – I’m going to just start at this end and come back. Michael? No comments? Board Member Makinen: Not right now. Chair Bower: Margaret. Board Member Wimmer: Well, I definitely think that we wouldn’t have gone through all of this effort and just had a Tier 0. I would think that we would want for this to be – I mean not just go through all this work and this very educational and helpful document and just put it on the shelf. I think that it should be an interactive tool so I think that we should at least have some step along the way where people have to respond or have to read or have to engage with this document while their considering making any alterations or doing any modifications to their house. Maybe – I mean I think – I always feel like you fall somewhere in the middle. You don’t want to make it into an ordinance where it has to be followed to a tee which might be the Tier Three. I think somewhere in the middle where at least we’re using it as a tool and a very valid useful tool. So, I think somewhere in the middle is where we need to guide them. Chair Bower: Roger. Board Member Kohler: Well, I think the – I’m not sure how to start this but over the years having been architecting here in Palo Alto over 40-years and worked on 400-500 houses in Palo Alto. This is pretty – I think a very important area. When I was in fourth grade we moved here from New Jersey and then we moved but a lot of my friends lived in Eichlers because we were down on East Meadow – West Meadow Road. I got close – spending many nights that varying homes that are Eichlers and I kinda got used to how they were and they’re a special breed. They have a lot of neat features and some annoying ones as well and so I think it’s a well worthwhile goal to try to keep what we’ve got going and maintaining it and improving it but not necessarily limiting everything to be the exact Eichler program. That you’re not interrupting what’s there now and that we’re increasing or improving the neighboring homes. This is basically goals for the exterior of the home as seen from the street as far as what you’ve been telling us. Most folks who end up living in Eichlers like the inside of Eichlers, that’s one reason they bought the house because they really have a neat feature. I’m hoping we could get this – I agree that we don’t want to go with Tier 0 and then we have 1, 2, 3 options, is that what we’re… Board Member Bernstein: Yes, that’s correct. Board Member Kohler: What David? What… Chair Bower: Sorry, we could also suggest a modification of these tiers. Board Member Kohler: Ok. Chair Bower: I don’t think we have to adopt 1, 2, or 3. Ms. French: I want to jump in to clarify. Again, you are not to – we have not fleshed these out in a way that’s recommendable at this time. Board Member Kohler: Oh, I see. Ms. French: I would like the Board to focus on the Guidelines themselves, which are voluntary, and any changes there too, so we can take that specifically to the Council. This possibility can be discussed but let’s not lose focus of what we’re doing today, which is the Guidelines adoption. Board Member Kohler: I think Martin did quite a good job on his little checklist and other comments so I’m comfortable with whatever we’re approving. I’m still not sure. City of Palo Alto Page 17 Ms. French: We’re recommending… Board Member Kohler: Recommending, ok. Ms. French: … the guidelines to the City Council and there’s a Resolution that can be tweaked if you would care to look at that. Board Member Kohler: Yeah, ok. Thank you. Chair Bower: Martin. Board Member Bernstein: Yes, I looked at the Resolution and on page – packet page 54, Policy L-6.2, I’ll just read it for the public record. If a proposed project would substantially affect the exterior of a potential historic resource that has not been evaluated for inclusion into the Cities Historic Resources Inventory. City staff shall consider whether it is eligible for inclusion in state or federal registers prior to the issuance of a demolition or alteration permit. Again, this is a good resolution statement that is in support of historic neighborhood character which would encourage then neighborhoods who are concerned about that to apply for a historic district designation. I totally agree with Chair Bower about the cultural value and by the way, the financial value of historic districts and the preservations. I’ve done about twelve homes in Professorville where we use these incentives and really expanded the market value for one way and also maintain the character of the district. So, any neighborhoods that are caring about their neighborhood character, well I think a historic designation is a good way to go so I would encourage owners to think about that. Thank you. Chair Bower: Alright so I don’t want to make this Attachment B the primary focus but I’m not hearing any Board Member suggest that these guidelines as they’ve been presented today shouldn’t be forward to the Council for adoption, in some way, into our City ordinance. The reason I wanted to focus on this attachment is that I think as Margaret has said, Tier One no action is certainly not what this… Board Member Bernstein: It’s Tier 0. Chair Bower: Tier 0, pardon me. We are not – we haven’t been working on this for a year and a half because as Councilwomen Holman said, the staff had nothing else to do. This came – this is before us because there was a strong desire by people who own Eichlers to protect them I think is a good way of saying it. I’d like to suggest to the Board that we recommend to the Council a combination of Tier 1 and Tier 2. I don’t – there’s very little difference, the only thing that I’m not sure about in Tier 2 and that would be my preference is the – addressing the erosion of support of single-story overlay. I think it would be a very positive thing for the Council to create a way in which we can have an Eichler overlay in every one of these individually identified neighborhoods in our design guidelines. We haven’t really talked about that but I think that this document moves us in that direction. I would like to suggest that we adopt the Tier 2 approach. Encourage the Council to move forward with a Tier 2 approach and if mayb e clarify what this – what an erosion of support of a single-story overlay might suggest. Ms. French: If I can jump in? Tier – you had first said recommend Tier 1 and Tier 2 so I think Tier 1 is, if anything, requested. I mean that’s what we’ve heard at the workshop etc. and that’s what I think staff would like to have is Tier 1. So, that we can proceed with our Individual Review of two -story homes with a tool such as this that connects them. That would be I think – now if you jumped to Tier 2 and not do Tier 1 then we’re not using the guidelines with the IR program. Now what you’re doing is suggesting that we allow a method through an ordinance for Eichler tracts to self-select – come forward with 70% of the neighbors – of the owners saying they want this to be imposed upon their neighborhood. Just the single- story overlay is now, that’s a process where if you have the CC&Rs 60% is required and if you don’t 70% is required to come forward with an application to impose a zone on overlay. Just creating the enabling ordinance to allow tracts to come forward is not imposing the Eichler district on any neighborhoods. It’s allowing a method whereby they could come forward. When we talk about erosion of support, that was with the single-story overlay process. We had several that came through that initially they had the City of Palo Alto Page 18 minimum level of support to submit the application for rezoning, but during the process, people decided to change their minds and they didn’t want to be – have that overlay and so those didn’t get passed through that process. So, with an Eichler overlay, we would want to, of course, take some direction that would allow consideration of what happens when that happens during that process. Chair Bower: Thank you for that clarification. I think in that i n hearing that, I think what I would like – I’m hoping the Board will do is adopt Tier 1 and support the – sorry, I’ve got to get the right page here. Board Member Bernstein: Page 53. Chair Bower: I’m sorry… Ms. French: I have to jump in again. Can we please not use the word adopt, could we please – just cautionary – to say explore whether it’s worthwhile or not to explore Tier 1 further, and recommend that the Council consider directing staff, basically. Chair Bower: I was thinking but did not say adopting an approach so an approach is what – obviously what we do is evaluate ideas and then make a suggestion to the Council. The Council makes a final decision but it’s their decision, not ours. I think we can do this in one motion now. I’m not hearing any problems with the proposed, yet not adopted, resolution on our pages. I think it provides an inclusion of the design guidelines as a tool in helping inform the alterations and additions t o Eichler properties and neighborhoods. I guess I’d like to hear a motion to inform the Council of our – what we think their approach should be to move forward. Martin. MOTION #1 Board Member Bernstein: Thank you, Chair Bower. I’d like to make a motion that the City at the City Historic Resources Board move to recommend to the Council that they adopt the resolution shown on our packet page 53. In referring to the – your comment Chair Bower about the different tiers, would that be a separate motion? Chair Bower: No, I think we should do it in one because the tiers are ideas about how to move forward. Board Member Bernstein: Ok, yeah. Also, including in my motion then to include the idea included in – written in Tier 1 which is using in tandem the IR Guide lines for two-story, second floor home review and enhance IR privacy for Eichlers. By enhance, again that’s not an ordinance that we’re suggesting but that would be just exploring that comment. Part of Tier 1 also includes in this diagram the idea of an ordinance adopting the guidelines. My motion is that – my wording right now is not to recommend any ordinance adopting the guidelines. I’ll hear what the Board Members have about that but – because it’s just going to be I think just – oh, yeah, please go ahead. Ms. French: I’m sorry. I know this is really hard to manage. We – what you are – I think your motion is to recommend to adopt the resolution to – for the Council to adopt the guidelines as voluntary. You have a second and it would be nice to have a vote on that just alone. Then proceed with the second one is my request. The second piece would be to discuss an ordinance that would connect it to the individual review guidelines as a part of Tier 1; so, if we could just get to the finish line on the Guidelines and then the next discussion. Chair Bower: So, let’s just – you want to do the motion in both or one? Board Member Bernstein: Well, let’s just start with the motion with the – the first motion is to adopt the proposed resolution that’s on our packet page 53. Chair Bower: Which incorporates the proposed guidelines – voluntary guidelines as part of our review process. City of Palo Alto Page 19 Board Member Bernstein: Correct. Chair Bower: Alright, do we have a second? Board Member Wimmer: I’ll second that. Chair Bower: Alright, any discussion? I think we’ve probably talked about this… Board Member Kohler: I vote yes. Chair Bower: We haven’t voted yet. Alright, if there is no discussion would you like to rephrase the motion just so that we have it clear for the record. Board Member Bernstein: Yes, move that the Historic Resources Board recommend to the City Council that they adopt the resolution shown on our packet page 53. Chair Bower: Alright and that’s been seconded by Margaret so all in favor say aye. Opposed? No. MOTION PASSED WITH A VOTE OF 5-0 WITH VICE CHAIR COREY ABSENT. Chair Bower: Now let’s Ms. French: (inaudible) Chair Bower: Brandon, yeah, he had to leave. Let’s talk about our recommendations as regards to Tier 1, 2, or 3 on page 56. Board Member Wimmer: Can I ask a question? I’m sorry, I – as I’m looking through this, this is now referencing an Eichler overlay so is there – maybe I just didn’t notice it in the guidelines. Does it discuss an Eichler overlay in the guidelines? I know it mentions all the – and identifies all the tracts so is that basically saying that each tract would be an Eichler overlay. Ms. French: No. Board Member Wimmer: I mean how are those – I missed that. I’m sorry. Ms. French: Sorry, I need to jump in again. What you have in front of you and on the screen are ideas without any exploration. The exploration that would occur related to Tier 2 would be if Council where to direct us, staff, to embark upon a process that would take many months and probably a year to explore an ordinance that would enable – just like the SSO Ordinance process - that would enable tracts to voluntarily come forward and self-select themselves with a minimum percentage of support from the owners to become an Eichler overlay. What the Eichler overlay would be is variable as well. It could be… Board Member Wimmer: Is to be defined because we haven’t defined what that is yet. Ms. French: We haven’t defined whether the entirety of the guidelines would apply or one chapter or… Board Member Wimmer: I think that’s what I was missing, that reference (crosstalk) to Eichler overlay but there was no definition of it so ok. I was trying to figure that, I wasn’t sure. Chair Bower: Michael. City of Palo Alto Page 20 Board Member Makinen: I think that’s very appropriate that we endorse the concept of an Eichler overlay district. At least the Council can consider that as an action that we can take. I think definitely should state something along those lines. Chair Bower: Alright, Roger any comments? Board Member Kohler: I’m looking here at this and there’s 0 – Tier 0, Tier 1, Tier 2, Tier 3 so are we voting on one of those tiers? No, we trying… Ms. French: No, there’s no… Board Member Kohler: Ok, yeah, that’s what I’m trying to say. Ms. French: What I think might best, I’m trying to help and I realize this is difficult… Board Member Kohler: I think we just… Ms. French: If you’re not inclined – if anyone – you could say straw poll if Tier 0 voluntary is your opinion of the best way to move forward. You could take a tier straw poll to say if Tier 1 makes sense for staff to put in the report or it’s in the minutes from the HRB meeting that the Council will see. I think taking each one individually, not either or, would be a better approach. Board Member Kohler: Well, I mean it seems to me we’re the Historic Resources Board, I don’t think we want to 0. That’s – we’re trying to help to guide everybody. I’m not sure why we have to – there’s an overlay between all of these. Why don’t we just come up with some sort o f suggestion of a combination for Tier 1 and 2? I don’t know about 3. Board Member Wimmer: Is there a way that we can just make a motion that we reviewed this potential Attachment B and our motion is to take the time to further develop it so -- because we’re kind of stumbling over it obviously. Chair Bower: So, I’d like to… Board Member Wimmer: So, instead of continuing stumbling, can we just have a motion to accept it as an idea and the motion would be to further investigate it? MOTION #2 Chair Bower: I’d like to try to short-circuit this, what seems to be a circular discussion. I’d like to move that the Historic Resources Board encourage the City Council to recreate an ordinance that adopts the guidelines and that is used in tandem with the Individual Review Guidelines for second story and second floor home review and that enhances the Individual Review privacy for Eichlers. I’d like that to have an emphasis on neighborhood control and neighborhood guidance because I think local is – as local as you can get - is best. Board Member Bernstein: I thought… Chair Bower: My motion. Board Member Bernstein: I second that motion. Chair Bower: Now a discussion of it? This is a motion to encourage the Council to move forward with these ideas. Essentially, they are the ones that are summarized in Tier 1. I would imagine that in this review an Eichler overlay might also come out of it so I don’t want to put that as part of the motion but I think that could be a logical – something that would logically be included. City of Palo Alto Page 21 Board Member Bernstein: The reason why I seconded Chair Bower’s motion is the idea of a local control. We’ve seen great success in Professorville Historic District for example. We have two National Listed Historic Districts for Eichlers and that’s all neighborhood local control. Boy, I think that’s the best administrative way there is. The majority of homeowners in different districts saying here’s what we want and then do their now application process so that’s why I supported Chair Bow er’s motion. Chair Bower: Staff opinion? Ms. French: I don’t want to offer my opinion but what I do want to say is just for the public, I sense restlessness and I hope we don’t get to hissing again. What I’d like to say is any ordinance that would connect these guidelines to the Individual Review program and the process would first have to go to the Planning and Transportation Commission in a public hearing with notice cards s ent to everybody all over again much ahead of the meeting. Because it’s an ordin ance it has some teeth to it and that would have to go after the Council directs us to pursue that option because again, that is staff resources to be spent on a process. Hopefully, that’s clear to the public. Chair Bower: Right, this is a recommendation for a path forward and that’s all it is and it’s – that means we would just start a second ordinance crafting process. Correct? Ms. French: It would be the first ordinance because what this is, is a resolution. Resolutions do not have any power to change ordinances; only to acknowledge the existence of these as a useful tool – voluntary tool. Chair Bower: Any other comments on the motion? Board Member Wimmer: I just – I’m sorry, sometimes I backtrack. So, there is a potential that each individual tract could follow a different tier. I mean we’re not saying that – I know I just want… Chair Bower: Let me interrupt. I don’t want to have to actually get into weeds in this. This is a direction… Board Member Wimmer: (inaudible) Chair Bower: This is a direction and the Council… Board Member Wimmer: (inaudible) Chair Bower: …has to move – they have to make the decision about how they want us to move. I’d like to focus this on just the direction that we want Council to take, not on the individual specif ics which, of course, will be discussed in great detail. Is that ok? Board Member Wimmer: Yes. Chair Bower: I don’t mean to cut off your thoughts, they are legitimate and valuable but that’s – we’re at the 30,000-foot level here I think. Board Member Wimmer: Right. Chair Bower: Other comments? Alright, if there are no further comments let’s vote on the m otion. All in favor say aye. Opposed? None. MOTION PASSED WITH A VOTE OF 5-0 WITH VICE CHAIR COREY ABSENT Chair Bower: I think that concludes the public hearing on the Eichler Design Guidelines.

City of Palo Alto | City Clerk's Office | 3/19/2018 10:07 AM 1 Carnahan, David From:michael nierenberg <nierenberg@yahoo.com> Sent:Saturday, March 17, 2018 1:34 PM To:Council, City Subject:Eichler Guidelines... Please consider the following From Michael A. Nierenberg, M.D. Dear City Council Members: On 2/1/2018 I sent an email regarding what I felt was inadequate community representation and input regarding the Eichler Guidelines. Since then a more concerted effort has been put forth by the Planning Division to inform the public, including notification that you will be addressing the Eichler Guidelines on April 2. These guidelines are now being passed on to you from the HRB for consideration of what level of action should be taken regarding them, all the way up to establishing them as mandates. Having attended the HRB meeting and following the process carefully, I have some ongoing concerns that I would ask you to consider carefully while reviewing the “Guidelines” and how they are put to use: >By their own acknowledgment, Page and Turnbull interviewed only about 150 Eichler owners when preparing their guideline report. This is a small fraction of the people who live in Palo Alto's 2700 Eichlers. Also, only a total of about 100 people have attended the public meetings about the guidelines, partly because of initially late or inadequate notification. >Communication has not been completely transparent. The guidelines are repeatedly touted as “voluntary” and yet there is a process as you will see for escalating them to requirements. They are stated to not put forth a single story overlay (SSO) in Eichler neighborhoods and yet on page 74 of the guidelines there is a diagram that puts forth a suggested height limitation which is essentially an SSO. Given the lack of openness and transparency it is no doubt that so few people attended meetings who might have done so otherwise. As presented, the guidelines seem so “innocent”. And by the way, there is precedent for two story original Eichlers that are extremely attractive and every much an Eichler as is a single story one. Of course, no mention was made of this by anyone. http://www.eichlernetwork.com/article/two-view >By freezing the Eichlers in time, you limit the possible use of future improved building materials that might not conform exactly to mandated appearance. By being very limiting in style, color, etc. these guidelines can have unforeseen problems. The door handles recommended in the first version of the guidelines did not provide an option for handicapped individuals. This was corrected in the second iteration, but how many other oversights might result from being very specific about maintaining Eichler integrity? >Privacy issues are repeatedly raised as a reason for the guidelines. These concerns are already addressed in Palo Alto’s IR process. And you cannot completely legislate privacy anyway. A back yard tall play structure or a child’s tree house negates privacy more than a carefully done second story that has street-facing windows. >Categorically and completely eliminating even the possibility of a second story essentially prevents multi- generational families from living in Eichlers in Palo Alto. Not only does this not help with the housing shortage, it could be seen as discriminatory against certain ethnic groups that favor this type family structure. City of Palo Alto | City Clerk's Office | 3/19/2018 10:07 AM 2 >If you feel these guidelines are critical to maintaining privacy and community integrity, they should be applied to ALL Palo Alto, not just Eichler neighborhoods. By singling out these neighborhoods, I would put forth that this may be in violation of the Housing Accountability Act (the “anti-NIMBY law”) of 1982. Berkeley and San Leandro have already lost or settled suits around this issue. I would rather see Palo Alto spend money on things other than legal fees. So, in summary, I would urge that you consider these guidelines to be only guidelines and review the consequences of how they are enacted very carefully. Please do what is best for ALL Eichler owners and ALL of Palo Alto, not just the vocal few who initially pushed for these guidelines. I would recommend that these guidelines remain voluntary, not mandates. I am writing this having already remodeled our Eichler (in a manner consistent with Eichler style) and added a second story (without affecting our neighbors’ privacy or solar rights). I personally have little to gain or lose from adoption of these guidelines; the community at large, however, is another story. Thank you for your time and attention. Respectfully, Michael A.

We have lived in our Eichler on Thomas Drive (Royal Manor) since1976. In ifs original orientation on the property and floor plan, our home did not conform to the proposed guidelines (front fencing, view from street, etc.) We have remodeled three times. As a result, our new front driveway and walk, installed new front and side windows, over-the-roof repaired piping, raised roof line, and probably other features, do not conform to the proposed "guidelines". There have been a number of anecdotal comments to the effect that many of the two thousand odd Eichlers in Palo Alto do not now conform to the proposed guidelines. I did a quick, informal survey of the homes on the 3300-3400 block of Thomas Drive. Of the 26 homes on the block, only 7 (23o/o) appear to conform to the proposed guidelines. The other 19 were non-conforming with many homes having multiple non conforming features. Adoption of these guidelines as a formal City of Palo Alto document -when it is known that as many as three-quarters of the existing structures may not conform -is simply poor public policy and governance. It will erode the credibility of past and certainly future City guides, codes, ordinances, etc. I recommend that the City Council refer these guideline back to the Historic Resource Board. Let the Board adopt them as a truly voluntary Eichler guide for those who may wish to use them. However, in no circumstances should these guideline be incorporated, by reference or any other manner, into any formal City planning or permit approval process, i.e, into any of the proposed Four Tier Code Options. The City Council needs to focus directly and courageously on the privacy issues (Single Story Overlay and Accessory Dwelling Units) being raised by residents, and not 1 cloud the issue with formal adoption of such out-of-date/out-of-style measures as these Eichler Design Guidelines. Roy Snyder Thomas Drive 2 French, Amy From: Sent: To: Rajesh Srinivasarag havan < rajesh .srinivasaraghavan@gmail.com> Thursday, March 22, 2018 9 :17 PM French, Amy; Eichler Subject: Re: Eichler Guidelines Amy thank you for reaching out. I will try to attend.I am quite disappointed that there has not been complete transparency in the process. While all the comments and the headlines around this effort emphasize the "guidelines" it makes no mention of the 4-tiered level of implementation put forth by the Planning Division, the last of which is moving the guidelines to mandates. · Please see my original comments below on this topic and I would like to make sure this is communicated to the City council! I would like to reiterate that these guidelines do not reflect the spirit of the building code and role of planning division -which is safety. I would compare these guidelines to the Palo Alto Utility Commission recommending that we all plant a specific type of fern in our front yard and grow a specific variety of orange in our back yard! Dear Sir/Madam I had the opportunity to review the guidelines on the Eichler. I understand that this is a fall out of the heated debate over single story overlays that was brought in front of the City Council last year. First and foremost, thank you for initiating and following through the next steps and recommendations on the council. I had a few remarks and observations for the record 1. In congruency of Single Story Guidelines: One of the key elements of the recommendations to preserve the Eichler design encourages maintaining the single story layout of the Eichler. la. This doesn't seem to reflect one of the key sentiments articulated by the members of the community who opposed the original single story overlay restriction viz. there are limited options to expand to support growing families in the small sized lots of Palo Alto, especially some of which have significant easement restrictions due to high voltage power lines (e.g., on Kenneth Drive) 1 b. Many of the remodeling projects that I have come aross recently have rebuilt eicher houses with multi-story non-eichler structures : This guidelines seems to limit the options of people who want to make small additions to their house rather than a rip and replace their entire house 2. Implications of Guidelines and its enforceability: I would like the spirt of the document to be a guideline and not an enforceable code. I feel it is a slippery slope when the City starts providing guidelines on type of · door handles, garage doors and colors of front doors that we should use. Since the motivation for the guidelines are aesthetics and not something more fundamental (e.g., energy savings) that have impact on the next generation, I would recommend that the city not adopt any formal guidelines around looks. Some of the most 1 innovative designs (including the original Frank Lloyd Wright's modem architecture) would have never come to pass if the City had insisted on preseving status quo 3. Limited visibility to the process seeking community input: While there seems to have been a process around seeking input on these guidelines, it is unclear how this process was communicated to the community. There is a lot of emails messages during the "last phase" of the process but very limited attempts to get broad community input during the earlier phases. I urge you to postpone any decisions on these guidelines and plan 1-2 community events during hours that are friendly to young families in the local neighborhoods. Please reach out to champions of the community who opposed the single community overlay and seek their input on involving the audience.

Thank you, Julie Barta 1 City of Palo Alto (ID # 9050) City Council Staff Report Report Type: Action Items Meeting Date: 4/2/2018 City of Palo Alto Page 1 Summary Title: P&S Recommendation to Council - Anti-Idling Ordinance Title: Policy and Services Committee Recommendation to Council to Adopt an Ordinance Adding Chapter 10.62 to Title 10 (Vehicles and Traffic) of the Municipal Code to Regulate Unnecessary Idling of Vehicles From: City Manager Lead Department: City Manager Recommended Motion The Policy and Services Committee recommends that Council adopt the attached ordinance (Attachment A) amending the Municipal Code to add Chapter 10.62 to Title 10 (Vehicles and Traffic) to regulate unnecessary idling of vehicles. Background On August 28, 2017 the City Council discussed a Council Colleagues Memo from Vice Mayor Kniss and Council Members Filseth, Holman and Dubois, recommending the City develop an ordinance to implement Programs N5.2.1 and N5.2.2 in the Draft Comprehensive Plan and to support Healthy Cities, Healthy Communities Priority by requiring drivers to shut off their engines after two or three minutes of stationary idling if not in an active traffic path, noting exceptions. The following motion was unanimously passed by Council 8-0 (Fine absent): MOTION AS AMENDED RESTATED: Vice Mayor Kniss moved, seconded by Council Member Holman to direct Staff to return to the Policy and Services Committee with an Ordinance to implement Programs N5.2.1 and N5.2.2 in the Draft Comprehensive Plan and to support the Healthy Cities, Healthy Communities Council Priority by requiring drivers to shut off their engines after two or three minutes of stationary idling i f not in an active traffic path, noting exceptions. The Ordinance would be patterned after ordinances adopted in Minneapolis, MN; Salt Lake City, UT; and Ann Arbor, MI. City of Palo Alto Page 2 Discussion On December 12, 2017 the Policy and Services Committee discussed the staff report and a draft Anti-Idling Ordinance prepared for discussion purposes (see transcript, Item 3, pp 15-31). The Policy and Services Committee was overall supportive of an effort to discourage extended vehicle idling, and the Committee discussed primarily exemptions to the ordinance and enforcement of the ordinance. The exemptions that staff brought forward for the Committee’s consideration were derived from other city anti-idling ordinances. The Committee recommends that all of the listed exemptions be included in the ordinance (Attachment A). They include emergency vehicles, refrigeration trucks and armored vehicles among other special circumstances where extended idling may be warranted. Regarding enforcement, staff drafted several options for the Policy and Services Committee, ranging from emphasizing education and providing for no active enforcement, to escalating fines. Staff recommended that the ordinance primarily function as an education tool to help people understand and appreciate the issue, recognizing that formal enforcement will be challenging and of limited effectiveness. After some discussion the Committee voted 3-1 (Wolbach no) to include an enforcement component with the following fine amounts: $0 (written warning) for the first violation, $100 for the second violation and $150 for the third violation. Councilmember Wolbach preferred the no enforcement option in recognition that enforcement will be very rare due to lack of resources and the impractical operational logistics that would be required to enforce idling time limits. The Committee also discussed the need for education on the topic of extended idling, particularly collaborating with PAUSD, as extended idling is frequently observed at school drop off and pick up times. The Committee discussed interest in PAUSD collaborating with students to help educate parents and caregivers understand the negative impacts of extended idling. Staff will share the ordinance with PAUSD and discuss with them how they might work with students to help with community education. Resource Impact Adoption of an ordinance in itself will have limited resource impact. With the understanding that additional resources will not be available, enforcement will be a low priority for existing staff. If council anticipates active enforcement of the ordinance, including tracking prior violations to implement an escalating fine structure, staff will need to return with an analysis of resources required. Policy Implications The draft ordinance supports the Comprehensive Plan, Heathy City Healthy Community and Sustainability Climate Action Plans as related to our city’s carbon reduction efforts.

The Council of the City of Palo Alto does ORDAIN as follows: SECTION 1. The City Council finds and declares as follows: A. Program N5.2.1 of the updated City of Palo Alto Comprehensive Plan instructs the city to “[p]romote understanding of the impacts of extended idling on air quality, for residents, auto-dependent businesses and schools.” Additionally, Program N5.2.1 of the updated Comprehensive Plan instructs the city to “[c]onsider adopting and enforcing penalties for drivers that idle for longer than 3-5 minutes.” This ordinance is intended to effectuate Policy N-5.2 and support behavior changes to reduce emissions of particulate matter and other air pollutants from automobiles. B. Title 13, California Code of Regulations, section 2485 currently makes it unlawful for any diesel-fueled commercial vehicle weighing over 10,000 pounds and operating in California to idle for more than 5 minutes, subject to certain exceptions. Additionally, Title 13, California Code of Regulations, section 2480 requires that school busses and other school- serving busses turn off their engines when stopping at or within 100 feet of a public or private K-12 school, with idling permitted for only up to 30 seconds prior to departure . The California Air Resources Board is authorized to enforce these laws by issuing civil and/or criminal citations to vehicle owners and/or operators and penalties of at least $300 per violation. These regulations do not preclude local governments from regulating vehicle idling more stringently or in a broader manner than the state does currently. C. The unnecessary operation of internal combustion engines poses a number of public health concerns. In particular, airborne pollutants from engine emissions can cause or aggravate pulmonary diseases, including asthma, lung cancer, bronchitis, acute respiratory infections, and emphysema. In addition to public health concerns, idling engines also impose economic costs, including wasted energy, consumption of non -renewable resources, and costs related to medical care and lost productivity due to pollution-related illness. Idling engines also diminish citizens’ quality of life by generating noise, odor, and visible smog. D. In addition to impacts on local community health and welfare, unnecessary idling contributes to environmental degradation in the Bay Area and more broadly by emitting greenhouse gases, hydrocarbons, nitrogen oxides, and particulate matter. Although technological advancements in internal combustion engines have reduced some of these impacts, increases in vehicle usage and the continued use of older vehicles has offset many of these technological benefits. ATTACHMENT A Not Yet Approved E. The City of Palo Alto is committed to reducing greenhouse gas emissions from activities within the city. This commitment is demonstrated in part by the city’s Sustainability and Climate Action Plan, which targets an 80-percent reduction in greenhouse gas emissions from 1990 levels by 2030. Additionally, Goal N-5 of the updated Comprehensive Plan demonstrates the city’s commitment to developing local policies and working with BAAQMD to promote regional solutions to improve air quality in Palo Alto and throughout the Bay Area. SECTION 2. Chapter 10.62 (Idling of Vehicles) of Title 10 (Vehicles and Traffic) is hereby added to read as follows: Chapter 10.62 Idling of Vehicles 10.62.010 Intent and Purpose.

Background On August 28, 2017 the City Council discussed a Council Colleagues Memo from Vice Mayor Kniss and Council Members Filseth, Holman and Dubois, recommending the City develop an ordinance to implement Programs N5.2.1 and N5.2.2 in the Draft Comprehensive Plan and to support Healthy Cities, Healthy Communities Priority by requiring drivers to shut off their engines after two or three minutes of stationary idling if not in an active traffic path, noting exceptions. The following motion was unanimously passed by Council 8:0 Fine absent: MOTION AS AMENDED RESTATED: Vice Mayor Kniss moved, seconded by Council Member Holman to direct Staff to return to the Policy and Services Committee with an Ordinance to implement Programs N5.2.1 and N5.2.2 in the Draft Comprehensive Plan and to support the Healthy Cities, Healthy Communities Council Priority by requiring drivers to shut off their engines after two or three minutes of stationary idling if not in an active traffic path, noting exceptions. The Ordinance would be patterned after city ordinances adopted in Minneapolis, MN; Salt Lake City, UT; and Ann Arbor, MI. Discussion City staff reviewed the Colleagues Memo and a number of Anti-Idling Ordinances from City of Palo Alto Page 2 other cities and counties including Minneapolis, Salt Lake City, Ann Arbor, Auburn and Placer County. Staff prepared a draft ordinance for the Committee to discuss and consider for Council approval (Attachment B). Staff is supportive of the goal that residents, workers and visitors should be more conscious of the harmful impact of long time idling on the environment. Staff understands and supports an attempt to reduce long time idling behavior, recognizing it would be good for the community, and consistent with our Healthy City, Comprehensive Plan and Sustainability and Climate Action Plan goals. Staff also believes that this ordinance should primarily function as an education tool to help people understand and appreciate the issue. Formal enforcement activity will be challenging and of limited effectiveness. If the Committee chooses to recommend an ordinance to Council, it should do so with a realistic understanding of the enforcement constraints. Code enforcement and police officers will rarely be available to respond to complaints of violations due to limited resources and the need prioritize other health and safety issues. And even when resources are available, violation s typically would not be ongoing when enforcement officers arrive at the scene, making formal enforcement activity difficult. Experience with other similar mandates has shown that enforcement is resource-intensive and of limited effectiveness. This can contribute to some citizens’ feelings of frustration toward local government. Staff discussed internally whether there is value and merit in an ordinance that states explicitly that enforcement mechanisms and resources will not be deployed. This is a point of discussion for the Committee. Is an ordinance the most appropriate tool to attempt to influence extended idling behavior? Perhaps a targeted education campaign, as resources allow, supported by a strong Council resolution is more fitting? Staff is not recommending this alternative, but raises it for discussion purposes. Neither are we recommending a responsive enforcement program if an ordinance is recommended. There are a number of exceptions in the draft ordinance. Cities that have anti-idling ordinances differ in the exceptions they include. Staff included all relevant exceptions from the examples we consulted, as a starting point. We seek the Committee’s direction in this area, as well. Timeline Staff will bring the Policy and Services recommendation to Council early in 2018. Resource Impact It is important to note that this initiative arrived on the “City’s plate” so to speak, unplanned and out of step with the City workplan. In addition, the staff report identifies the challenges associated with enforcment. Adoption of an ordinance in itself will have limited resource impact. Depending on the City of Palo Alto Page 3 Committee and Council’s direction, additional resources may needed for education, signs and informational material, and enforcement. As indicated above, the requirements associated with these choices needs to be a key focus of the Committee’s discussion. Policy Implications The draft ordinance supports the Comprehesive Plan, Heathy City Healthy Community and Sustainabiity Climate Action Plans as related to our city’s carbon reduction efforts. Attachments:  Attachment A: ID# 8409 Colleagues Memo Vehicle Idling  Attachment B: Anti-Idle Draft Ordinance - 11.30.17 City of Palo Alto COLLEAGUES MEMO August 28, 2017 Page 1 of 5 (ID # 8409) DATE: August 28, 2017 TO: City Council Members FROM: Council Member Filseth, Council Member Holman, Council Member DuBois, Council Member Kniss SUBJECT: COLLEAGUES MEMO FROM COUNCIL MEMBERS DUBOIS, FILSETH, HOLMAN, AND VICE MAYOR KNISS REGARDING AN ANTI-IDLING ORDINANCE (AIO) Goals: The City’s S/CAP plan calls for a reduction in citywide CO2-equivalent emissions of 224,600 tons by 2030, of which 111,900 tons are expected to come from mobility1. Emissions from stationary idling of cars, trucks and buses are one source of these emissions, and according to some studies the average US city emits about 13 tons of carbon each day, just from idling.  An anti-idling ordinance would additionally support the Council’s Healthy Cities, Healthy Communities Priority and, as stated in State Resolution 160, emission from idling vehicles “is linked to asthma, decreased lung function, cardiac disease, cancer, and other serious health problems.” 2  The Bay Area Air Quality Management District states that inhaling particulate matter resulting from idling can aggravate asthma, cause coughing or difficult breathing, decrease lung function, exacerbate cardiovascular problems, lead to chronic bronchitis. 3 A city ordinance requiring drivers to shut off their engines after the more feasible of two or three minutes of stationary idling would make a modest but measurable contribution to our 80-30 goal and improved health conditions at a low cost. We further understand that some exceptions are necessary for public safety and possibly for some specific health conditions. Examples include:  Fire trucks when responding to emergency calls  Police vehicles when responding to emergency situations  Public Works vehicles under certain specific and detailed conditions listed in City Fleet Policies & Procedures  Possibly some particular health conditions August 28, 2017 Page 2 of 5 (ID # 8409) Background and Discussion: Idling vehicles in Palo Alto produce an estimated 6.2 tons of CO2-equivalent emissions per year (see Appendix A: DOE). Some of this is short-duration idling done by vehicles at intersections; such as waiting for a stoplight to change, or in stop-and-go traffic. However, other idling is done at curbsides, such as by vehicles waiting to pick up passengers or deliver goods, and may last 10 minutes or more; tech-employee and tourist buses, have been observed to idle for even longer. Perhaps the greatest contributors to CO2 emissions due to idling are construction vehicles that idle for long periods of time while in queue to make deliveries or pick up excavation dirt, for instance because they often use diesel fuel There is not a good reason for such extended curbside idling. Modern vehicle engines do not suffer wear and tear from simply being turned on and off, and now use very little fuel in start-up. Some cars now automatically turn-off and on when idling. The efficiency tradeoff between keeping a car idling vs restarting it has largely disappeared. The S/CAP 80-30 goal calls for the City to reduce transportation emissions by 117,900 tons between now and 2030. An Anti-Idling Ordinance (AIO) would target extended curbside idling and construction idling, and would likely reduce City emissions by 600- 1200 tons per year, or .5-1% of the 2030 goal. This is a modest amount to be sure, yet still measurable; and the expense and effort would be low. And it would still be the equivalent of permanently taking 120-240 cars off the road/year. Furthermore, there are other benefits; for example, reducing auto fumes outside schools, where considerable idling is done by parents waiting to pick up kids will create a healthier environment for children and adults. The primary costs would likely be: posting signs in idle-rich places such as schools, truck delivery stops, and employee-bus stops; community education and outreach to promote awareness of the problem and the ordinance; and any ongoing enforcement costs. The first two of these are likely to be modest. The third is unclear, but independent of enforcement, even just signs and education are likely to have at least some impact. Recommendation: Develop a City ordinance to implement Programs N5.2.1 and N5.2.2 in the Draft Comprehensive Plan and to support Healthy Cities, Healthy Communities Priority by requiring drivers to shut off their engines after two or three minutes of stationary idling if not in an active traffic path, noting exceptions. The ordinance would be August 28, 2017 Page 3 of 5 (ID # 8409) patterned after city ordinances adopted in Minneapolis, Salt Lake City, and Ann Arbor. Staff Impact: While adoption of a new ordinance itself would require minimal staff resources, the new ordinance would raise community expectations that more will be spent on the installation of signs and on enforcement of the new ordinance. Resource impacts will depend on the number of signs installed and on the type and level of enforce ment that is desired. If no additional staff resources are added, efforts towards education, response to complaints, citation and prosecution would compete with other priorities of existing staff in Transportation, Code Enforcement, the Police Department and the Attorneys Office. Since violations of the idling ordinance would be a lesser priority for enforcement than many other moving violations, there is likely to be limited or no enforcement without t he addition of staff resources. 1. http://www.cityofpaloalto.org/civicax/filebank/documents/51856 2. https://leginfo.legislature.ca.gov/faces/billTextClient.xhtml?bill_id=201520160ACR160 3. http://www.baaqmd.gov/~/media/files/planning-and-research/planning- healthy- places/draft_planninghealthyplaces_marchworkshop- pdf.pdf?la=en Appendix A: Potential GHG Impact of an Anti-Idling Ordinance in Palo Alto Appendix B: Background on Vehicle Idling (Idle Free Bay Area) Appendix A: Potential GHG Impact of an Anti-Idling Ordinance in Palo Alto E. Filseth, June 2017 While estimates of total nationwide idling emissions are available, little quantitative analysis is available on the direct impact of anti-idling ordinances (AIO) on reducing these emissions. Although a few idling studies have examined specific vehicle types such as police cars, an estimate for AIO impact on general auto emissions must rely on considerable guesswork. 1.0 Annual Vehicle Idling Emissions in Palo Alto - Estimate Tons of CO2 Total US Annual Personal-Vehicle Emissions from Idling (1) 30,000,000 Population of USA 321,000,000 Population of Palo Alto 66,000 2.0 What Range of Possible Idling Reduction from an AIO? % Reduction A.

Idling happens while:  Waiting to pick someone up from school, sports practice or the library  Sitting at a drive-through or car wash  Checking email and voicemail – check before you start the car Myths about idling:  “I need to warm up my car.” Idling is NOT the best way to warm up your car – driving is  “Shutting off and restarting my car is hard on the engine and uses more gas than if I leave it running.” Frequent restarting has little impact on engine components Top reasons to be idle free:  Save money –30 seconds of idling uses more fuel than restarting the engine  Breathe easier – car exhaust can aggravate asthma and decrease lung function – especially in children  Keep the sky blue – car exhaust is the #1 source of summertime air pollution in the Bay Area  Reduce your carbon footprint How Idling Affects Your Health: The pollutants found in exhaust not only affect our environment, they also affect our health. Particulate matter (PM) is the name for tiny particulates, such as soot, dust and dirt found in the air. When inhaled, these small particles travel into the lungs and sometimes into the bloodstream. Inhaling PM can:  Aggravate asthma  Cause coughing or difficult breathing  Decrease lung function  Exacerbate cardiovascular problems  Lead to chronic bronchitis 30-second Rule: Turn off the car’s engine if you’ll be waiting for more than 30 seconds and help us all breathe easier.

City of Palo Alto COLLEAGUES MEMO April 02, 2018 Page 1 of 1 (ID # 9082) DATE: April 2, 2018 TO: City Council Members FROM: Council Members DuBois, Holman, and Kou SUBJECT: COLLEAGUES' MEMO FROM COUNCIL MEMBERS DUBOIS, HOLMAN, AND KOU TO ESTABLISH A DAY OF ANNUAL RECOGNITION OF THE INCORPORATION OF THE CITY OF PALO ALTO Goal Establish a day of annual recognition of the incorporation of the City of Palo Alto. Background and Discussion Palo Alto was incorporated in 1894 and will celebrate its 125th anniversary next year. Palo Alto is largely considered the birthplace of Silicon Valley, is one of a few California cities that has its own utilities (due to the early efforts of Professors Wing and Marx), is often a leader in environmental initiatives, is the home of multiple national and world-influencing persons and companies, hosts frequent delegations from other countries and states inquiring about the “magic” that takes place here, gets high marks for its schools among many things …. and yet Palo Alto has no day on which it recognizes the date it became a city. Recommendation Establish April 21st as an annual date of recognition for the incorporation of Palo Alto and to be known as Palo Alto Day. Staff Impact There is no anticipated impact to staff. Resolution HONORING THE INCORPORATION OF THE CITY OF PALO ALTO IN 1894 WHEREAS, Leland and Jane Stanford, initially stymied in their attempts to convince the neighboring town of Mayfield to serve as the home for the faculty and students of a university they founded in the memory of their son, Leland Stanford, Jr., subsequently engaged Timothy Hopkins to purchase land and plan the new town site of University Park, later named Palo Alto; and WHEREAS, the City of Palo Alto honors a long history of representative government and citizen engagement in civic affairs; and WHEREAS, in early days as an unincorporated town Palo Alto’s public works and roads were governed by the County Board of Supervisors; and WHEREAS, many early residents believed that local governance and ownership of such works as the water utility would benefit the growing population of Palo Alto; and WHEREAS, led by the Palo Alto Improvement Club, residents pressed for incorporation as the route to local governance and municipal provision of water, and later other utilities; and WHEREAS, a vote on April 9, 1894 by (male) residents of Palo Alto approved incorporation 98 to 21 and chose a five-member Board of Trustees; and WHEREAS, on April 16, 1894, papers reporting the results of the election were filed with the State of California; and WHEREAS, on April 21, 1894, state approval of incorporation allowed Palo Alto to become a California city of the sixth class; and WHEREAS, Palo Alto’s representative government derives from its incorporation on April 21, 1894. NOW, THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED, by the Council of the City of Palo Alto, that April 21 hereafter be celebrated annually as Palo Alto Day.
