HONORABLE CITY CO!JNCIL
Palo Alto, Californi~
CalTrain San Francisco Terminal Relocation Fublic M~etinq
in Pa~Q
Members of the Council~
This is an informational report, and no council action is required.
The purpose of this report is to provide comments to Council about
t.."1e March 24, 1.993 public meeting in Palo .:&"lto r"3:garding the
cal'rrain San Francisco Terminal Relocation project (also kno ... n as
the "downtown extension") ~ No ne .... information ,,",as presented by the
Peninsula Corridor Joint Powers Board (JPB) beyond what city staff
already provided for Council in CMR:215:93~ dated March 18, 1993
(Attachment 1).
During public testimony, Council Member Ron Andersen submitted and
read into the record a lett~r to the ~PB from Mayor Jean McCo~n
(Attachment 2). The large majority of public speakers favored the
extension of CalTrain to down~own San Francisco. The JPB ~il1 held
a speci31 meeting on April 15 to review public comments from t~e
four p'jblic meetings that were held in San Francisco, San Mateo,
and Santa Clara Counties. S~af.f will report back: to the Council,
as appropriate, concerning further progress and p03sible action on
tnis issue.
BACKGROUND
The Administrative Draft EIS/ErR for the terminal relocation
project .... as prepared in 1991, and it evaluated three potential
"build" alternatives for extending CalTrain service closer tc
do~nto'Wn. However r the Feder2;l Transi t Administration declined
permission to circulate ~he EIS to the public. beCduse there ~as no
commitment for the local share of the project cost. The EIS still
has not been circulated, and the dm,mtown extension project is
currently in limbo. The JPB scheduled a 5eries of information
meetings to update the public on the issues related to this
CHR:236:93

project. After its review of" the public conment hea~d at the
!!!e_etinqs, the J'PB plan:; to act either to pl.4rsue the terminal
reloc~tion project to a conclusion j or to not ~onsider it further.
Additional background information is p~ovided in CMR:215:93
(Attachment 1).
~ANTA Cl~AA COm~_T.x.2YBLIC MEETING
The santa Clara county public meeting on this project vas he~d in
Palo Alto on March 2( from 7!DO p.~. to 9:00 p.m. The meeting ~as
chaired by Supervisor Dianne McKenna, Chair of the JP8~ and toe
only Board member present. Approximately 60 members of the public
\lIere present.
The meeting opened with a very brief JPB staff overview of the
project alternatives~ the. changing community conditions (e:opecially
in San francisco), and the key questions for the 3?B to consider in
deciding what action to take next. This information ~as
essentially identical to that contained in the "'CalTrain Update"
attached to CMR:215:93. The remainder of the meeting ~as devoted
to public testimony, 'With approximately 30 persons presenting their
opinions, including a number of current and former elected
officials.
Council Member Ron Andersen submi tted and read into the record a
letter to the JPS frem Mayor Jean McCown {Attachment 2),
reiterating Palo Alto's lcngstanding support for the concept of a
downtown CalTrain extension, followed by his personal co~~ents of
support. Most or the 30 speakers spoke in favor of the do~ntown
extension, but did not seem to specify a particular alternative.
Ho'Wever J a number ot speakers stated that the alternative of
relying on a direct transfe.r to Mu"NI Metro would not be acceptable
to them. Several speakers asked the JPB to seek other funding
sources for the extension project and to provide mo .. -e trains~
ApproAiwately three speakers ~ere n~t in favor of the extension.
TWo of them cited high cost as tne pri~ary reas~~ and advocated the
alternative of direct transfer to MUNI Me.tro, at either the
existing-station at Fourth a:1:d TO\o,:nsend or at a new station furtl'H=r
away from do~~tow~ at Seventh and Townsend. One ot these speakers
fav~red replacement of CalTrain with BART~ 'I"t.IIo ?alo Alto residents
spoke ot the need for grade separations. One: sp.eaker referred
specifically to the East Meadow and East Charleston rail crossings,
and the other spoke about raising or lo-..'ering the rail 1 ine wbile
keeping roads at grade.
At a specia.l stUdy session on April 15 r the JPB -will review all
public comments rec~eived at the fOlJ~ meetings in the thr.;e
counties, and study the issues. At its regular meeting on May 6,
the JPB hopes to make a final decision on ~hat next stepa to take,

,
including tne possible 6t~p of terminati.'1g any further
consideration of the terminal relocation project. The JPB's
discussion 'Will probably focus on tr.e J.-.ey quest.ions on which it was
seeking p~blic input at the meetings, as sua~arized below:
• HoW' much money is -t.he JPe -willing to cot!'.I!!it to the terjl').:Lnal
relocation project?
• Are the ErS "build n alternatives too costly too consider?
• Is there still a priority to move the curr£nt terminal?
• Can the terminal be moved yet further from downtown (to
accommodate the Mission Bay and potential Giants baseball
stadium projects) and acceptable feeder service be provided?
• Is extending calTrain on a surface or above-grade align~ent
acceptable to the co~~unity?
• What alternatives me~it further consideration?
Staff believes that the attached letter from Mayor Jean MCCown,
presented by Council Member Andersen to the JPB at the March 24
public meeting, provides a sufficient statement of Palo }..lto's
interest and support for the terminal relocation project. Staff
does not believe it is necessary for Council to provide fu~ther
comments at this tim~~ unless it ~ishes to. Staff will keep the
Council inft:lrmed of further prt:lgress and possible action on this
issue.

HONOR~BLE CITY COUNCIL
Falo Alto, California
Members of the Council:
REPQRT _ IN BRIEf
ATTACHMENT A
The purpose of this informational report is to discus5 the upcoming
public meetings for the downtown San Francisco CalTrain extension.
This report also summarizes the latest information regaraing the
alternatives and issues related to this project. At the upcoming
March 24 public meeting in Palo Alto l staff plans to express Palo
Alto's longstanding pC'>st SUppOI't for a cost-effective extension of
Cal Train to downtown San Francisco.
staff ... i 11 then pre-pare a report to council on the information
presented at that meeting. This ~ill allow time for Council, if it
wishes, to direct any formal CO~1ents to the Joint Po~ers Board
before it meets on April 15 to revi~w public comments.
In 1988, the Peninsula corridor Joint Powers Board (JPB), the owner
and operator of CalTrain service~ a'.lthorized a San Francisco
DCW'ntown Terminal Relocation S'tudy for calTrain (also kno,,,,,,n as the
"do"Wl1town exte;-,sion"). This project is co-slJonsored by t.he federal
goverrunent. The purpose of the proje_ct is (1) to impro;re rajl
service for patrons with destinations in dOw~to~n San Francisco o~
desirin~ to make regional transit connections, and (2) to relocate
the existing terminal so the current site at Fourth and To~nsend
streets would be. available for tho? proposed Mission Bay
development.
The Administrative Draft EISjEIR was prepared in 1991, and it
evaluated three potential "build" alternatives for extending
service closer to downtown. However, the Federal Transit
Administration declined permis.sion to circulate the EIS to the
public, because there -was no caromi tment for tone local share of the
project cost.. The EIS still has not been circ"<Jlated, and the
dovnto'Wn extension project is currerrtly in l.imbo.

PURPOSE OF THE ptrBLIC ~EE'rIJJ:rG'§
The JPB has scheculcd a series of informational ~eetin9s to update
the public on the i,ssu€'.s related t,,) the do",'nto .. n extension. The
~eetings viII take place in San Frao.ncisco r San Mateo, and Santa
Clara counties. The Santa Clara County meeting vill be held in the
Palo Alto City council Ch~rnbers on Wednesday evening, March 24.
At each meeting. the J"PB !,Iill present the same information
regarding the numerous changing events that affect the proposed
downtown extension, and will receive public comm!?nt. The JPB "Will
review the existing alternatives analyzed in the E!S, and "Will
consider an::t new or revised project alternatives. The JPB hopes
that public understanding of theSe changed conditlons~ new
alternatives, and updated community goals, ~ill guide the JPB in
acting either to move this project forward to a conclusion, or to
!"lot consider it furth@r-.
Ers ALTEP..NATIVE:.~
The ErS evaluates three -build-alternatives, plus a transportation
systems management (TSM) alternative, and the "no build"
alternative. All three build alternatives involve a sublr'ay
alignment to the vicinity of Market street and/or the Transbay
Terminal. The Qttached ="'CalTrail". update" provides further detail
about theSE alternatives and other issues.
The 1991 cost of the build alternatives ranges from $570 million to
$65)S million. Of this, $232 million ramains unco!!lmitted and :.'ould
have to come from the three calTrain counties. Santa Clara
County I s recent Measure A, approved by the 'voters last year,
earmarks $146 million for CalTrain improvements~ but this money is
intended primarily for service upgrades, electrification, and other
improvements that are intended to directly benefit Santa Clara
COU:1ty.
Other alternatives besides the three EIS build alternatives have
been studied and proposed. Some ~ere considered during the EIS
process and rejected. others have been proposed separately ~nd
have not been fully evalUated. Some of these are listed in the
attached CalTrain Update. Citizen rail adv0c<.1cy groups, such as
the Train Riders A.ssociation of California and Peninsula Rail 2000,
have proposed other leSE: costly alternatives. They also believe
that costs for the EIS alternatil,res 1113:Y be unnecessarily inflate.d.
An informational sheet from Peninsula Rail 2000 is provided as
Attachment 2 of this staff report.

• "0.,:
l'he=e are a number of proj ects and issues that affect and relate to
the CalTrain downtown extension, some of which have developed since
the EIS was prepared. These issues will be discussed at the public
meetings. The attached calTrain update (Attachment 1) discusses
these issues in some detail.
The JPB has identified six key questions on w"hich it is seeking
public input at the lrIE.etings. These are included in the CalTrain
Update, and are summarized below!
1. How much money is the JPB 'Willing t.o commit to the terminal
relocation project?
2. Are the EIS "build" alternatives too costly to consider?
3. Is there still a priority to move the current tert:linal?
4. Can the terminal be moved ~{et fUrther from downtown {to
accommodate the Mission Bay and Giants baseball stadium
projects) and acceptable feeder service provided?
5. Is extendinq CalTrain on a surface or above-grade alignment
acceptable to the community?
6~ What alternatives merit further consideration?
After the three public meetings, the .,JPB will re'liew and consider
all info~lation received. A special JPB meeting for this purpose
has been scheduled for April 15, 1993. Finally, at its regularly
sCheduled May 6, 1993 meeting, the JPB will decide 'What its next
steps will be in the Terminal Relocation project.
~ONCLUSION
De~pite the complexity of issues, new and old, reqardi~jg the San
Francisco Terminal Relocation project, staff bel icves that Palo
Alto should continue to be a strong suppo.cter of the project,
provided that its cost effectiveness can be demonstrated in terms
of increased ridership. To that end l at the March 24 public
meeting, staff plans to express Palo Alto's longstanding support
for the conc~pt of a aownLown Cal Train extension.
Following that !n;;;etinq. staff' 'Will prepare a report to Council on
the information presented at the meeting. This will allow-time for
Council. if it .... ishes, to direct apy formal comTI1ents to the JPB
before it meets on April 15 to re .... ic,w public comltlents~

Dear Dianne:
City of Palo Alto

ATTACHMENT B
The City of Palo Alto appreciates thh opportunity to learn and comment about the changing
conditions, alternat.ves. and community goa!s affecting: the SarI Francisco Terminal Relocation
Project.
Palo Alto has been a long time suppoI1er of improvements to the peninsula rail service. In terms
of regional transit service, CaJTrain is OUi mainstay. Other ser...'icts, such as e"press bl2.s
service, provide onl), commu~e hOUT 5eT\:i.ce, and are vulnerable to the traffic congestion that
plagJ,..;es t,lo.,e major high·.,,'ays.
CalTrain is an existing, proven system. As such, upgrades such as elect.-ificatior. and the
terminal relocation, which ~'ill significantly improve service along the entire corridor, can be
made at costs. equal to onlY a few miles of new rail stlrts or ex.tensions. Despite many ..:u~rent
operational constraints, ridership grows. The Highway 101 corridor is the most congested on
the pe~insu!a, a'1d numerous studies have sho ..... Ti that CalTrair, 15 the most cost-effective rail
alternative. San Francisco is still Lie most significant overali Bay Area attractor for all trip
purposes, peak hour and off-peak. Furti'1ermore, downtown San Francis.:o i.s the transftf point
fer all regional 2nd ~nterci'Y bus ar:d r.1i! sen-ice5; thus, it is eS3ential tl-].a~ CalTrair. service be
,",'eli integrated rnto c!owIi10wn Silfl Francis:G.
DeSp1te the complexity ofissues 1 new and old, regarding: t...~e Sa.n Francisco Terminal Relocation,
the City of Palo Alto strongly supports this project. pravide.d that its cost effectiveness can be
demonstrated in lerTiiS of increa;;,ed riders.hip.
Sincerely,
JM:c,
