General F111ld
Financial summary
For 1994-95, a CIP budqet for General Fund projects is recommended
at $4.56 million. This figure includes $2~94 million in new and
ongoing CIP projects; $1.24 1:Ii1110n in utility user tax funded
street, sidewalk, and CUbberley projects; S.CS million trom
reserves for a downtown parking structure reasibility study, which
will eventually be reimbursed trom bond proceedsi and $.3 million
in increased park improv~ment5 and library autom~tion projects to
be funded froll:'. the one-time electric r'}bate. The electric reba.te
to the City resulted from a reser~e surplus in the Electric Fund,
due to savings in electric pover purchases and other factors. The
$4.56 million recommendation is noteworthy, given the continuing
and col'lsiderable pressures on General Fund financial resources as
evidenced by reductions which ~ay need to be proposed tc the city's
operating budget~
As the £ollo~in9 graph indicates, the total of $4.56 ~illion for
the 1394-95 General Fund CIP is the highest level of support fro.
1991-92 throcgh 1994-95. The $~.56 million ~undin9 level repre
sents a 4:1 .. 6 percent increase in real dollars over the ~9511-92

Pprks and Open space Imp~ovements
BUilding upon the momentum initia.ted in the 1993-94 CIP budget, a
total of $761,000 in funding is included in the 1994-95 elP for
parks and open space improvement. Parks and open space CIP
projects have :been allocated 15.6 ;,ercent of the General FUnd
budget. The condition and quality of city parks, facilities and
open space will be addressed through the following work:
o replacement of park playground equipment, benches t and picnic
tables;
o renovation of athletic fields ar:.d tennis and basketball
courts;
o repair or park pathways and irrigatlon SYSt6:clS;
o restoring plants, shrubs and ground cover;
o increased tree trimming and roo~ pruning within park
boundaries; and
o beautification of University Avenue, California Avenue and
Midtown business districts.
These projects emphasize both long-term benefits to the City's park
infrastructure and immediate needs to revive the City's physical
environment ..
As part of a continuing effort to beautify the environment of Palo
Alto's business districts, a second year of funding ($45,000) is
recOllIaended for landscaping and to steam clean the sidewalks 4 This
project represents a step toward a larger, joint effort between the
business community and the City toward iroprov ing the business
district surroundings~ As part of this effort, the City will
e~lore ~ith the business community the formation of
t.provement/beautification assessment districts. These districts
would provide the sustained funding necessary for ongoinq
maintenance and improvements. Likewise, the City envisions active
business involvement with ongoing project planninq and
implementation.
Infrastructure
l.ntrastructure replacement and improvement continues to rece.ivB
strong emphasis in the General Fund CIP budget. A total of
CMR: 178:94 3
--"l.;
I
.. ,-~" ...
$2,686,OOO~ or 55.1 percent of the General Fund CIP budget, is for
infrastructure projects. Major components of the 1994-95 General ~
Fund ir.frastructure effort include:
o seismic retrofit of the Senior Center;
o modifications to city streets and facilitie.s based on the
Americans With Disabilities Actj
c accelerated street and sidewalk repai~s;
o desiqn for Dovntovn Library beam repair;
o pathway lighting for the Lucie stern Community Center;
o roof repairs at the Municipal Service Center, Civic center,
Fire stations 1 and 4 and CUbberley community Center complex;
o design to waterproof the Civic Center Plaza; and
o feasibility study for downtown parking structure($).
As part of a multi-year, major project to seismically retrofit
public b\11ldings, $675,000 is pro-tided in 1994-95 for the
structural retrofit of the senior Center. Of the tot,al, $300,000
1. budqeted for 'the relocation of Se.nior Center occupants; and ~'"
$375,000 is for construction which viII occur in 1995-96. An \iWf'
additional $725,000 is budgeted for Senior Ce~ter seismic retrofit
construction in 1995-96. F1..Iture seismic retrofit sites include
COllege Terrace Library, the Children's Library ana the Junior
RUssum. It is important to note that future-year CIP costs for
seismic retrofits 'Will be updated from year to year, based on
preliminary design studies.
Stre~t and Sidewalk repairs represent a large share of the city's
intra structure program. Capital projects funded by ~~e utility
users te.x total an additional $1. 0 million for the accelerated
street ($600,000) and sidewalk ($400 1 000) proqram. The City's
effcrt to maintain its streets is supplemented by a recommended
$970,000 in Street I~provement (gas tax) funds.
Information Systems and computer Replacement
A total of $618,500, or 12.7 percent of the General Fund CIP
buQ93t, is recommended fo!" information systems and computer-related
improvements. These improvements allow City staff to provide more
rapid and accurate information to the public, to gather and analyze
data for better lIIanagetllent decisions. and to maintain existing
service levels without inc~easing staff levels. project$
recommended include;
CMR:17e:94 4 o

o new techn;:)loqy and computers to improve class l"eqistration
systems in the Community Services Depart~ent;
o a new payroll/human resources system that will tacili tate
implementation of Mi3sion Driven Budgeting;
o replacing obsolete eight-year-old personal computers;
o purchasing a new, centreli2eo Unix comoute~ that will
efficiently support city financial, payroli/human resources
and planning information systems;
o final funding for the Fi~e Department IS Communications
computer System, which implem.ents a state-of-the-art fire
management and Computer Assisted Dispatch system; and
o final .funding for placing all city base lfI.aps into a
qeographical information system database.
Of special note are the proposed technological improve.ents .for
COmmunity Services 1 Recreation and Arts and Culture operations ..
This project will provide a computerized and decentralized class,
workshop, racility, and field enrollment and reservation system.
The new systea will substantially improve the Department's ability
to provide prompt and quality lien-dee to its customers, while
iBprovinq operating efficiencies ..
CUstomer Service
The City continues to place a high priority on projects that
enhance service to the citizens of Palo Alto. These include:
o i~lementing a voice processing system that provides automat~d
information during non-business hours;
o remodeling the Civic Center's Revenue Collections area to
improve access to customers paying bills;
o providing a public information services system in the Civic
Center Lobby;
o impleaentinq a permit information tracking system that
monitors all types of permits, applications, licenses,
inspections, complaints and code enforcements on a citywide
basis; and
o continuing funding to automate and enhance the daliv{:Iry of
information in the City's librarie~.

......
In 1993-94, coun~il approved replace~ent of the Librarj"s central
computer to ensure curr-ent levels of service t~ Library patrcns. 0
Replacement of the computer represented Phase I of a five-pha6e
implementation plan, to develop the Library's computer system into
a~ information netw~rk th~t can deliver new and emerging products
and se!"Vices to all library facilities and re.mote users~ The
Libraryts multi-phase plan pl6,ces sustained and significant funding
requirements on the General Fund eIP budget. In addition to
aaint.aining current levels ?f service to patro!1s, it incorporates
increased levels of infon1ational services not provided in the
past.
Included in the General Fund base recommend~tion for 1994-95 is
$86,000 to replace Library terminals, add an indexing service to
the online catalog, and add specialized computers and software for
children's use of t..'1.e online catalog. This funding ..... ·ill ensure the
continuity of current ser;ices.
Another $211,000 is earmarked from one-time Electric utility rebate
.onies to fund additional parts of the Library's 1994-95 request~
The 1994-95 tundinq would be usea prima~ily for n~tworkin9 some or
all of the libraries by ca~le and providing additional computer
equiP1lle:nt~ By connecting the branches via .~ble, the Lihrary would
position itself to provide new and sophisticated informational
services and databases, such as Internet, in the future. With the
ability to access new information networks and to provide
information direotly to homes and businesses, the City will need to
address issues such as how best to apportion the cost of providing ~
these services~ Funding sources 5\1ch as grants, private donations,
and user fees will he explored to support these higher levels of
service.
Enterprise FUnds
Enterprisf:! Fund ,projects totaled $12.96 million in 1993-94 and
$17.1.5 million ~n 1994-95. The Enterprise Funds continue to
improve I repair and maintain their infrastructure through steady
inve2tment in ongoing capital projects.
Projects that account for the increase in Enterprise Fund capital
spending in 1994-95 include: implementation of the Electric Fund's
Barron Park Oistribution System Improvements ($1.0 million);
SUbstation Transformer Replacement ($.4 million); iroplem&ntation of
the Southqate Underground conversion ($1.32 million); and increased
activity in the continuing Street Liqht System Conversion project
($.7 million).
The Electric Underground Conversion program is proceeding as
planned. Major ~ork on the Channing/Addison Avenue project ~ill
essentially be co~pleted ~n 199~-S4, with final funding in 199~-95.

The southgate Underg~ound project construction begins in 1994-95.
The Byron/Cowper, Bryent/Wa~erley, and Ramona/Alma Underground
projects have been postponed; and construction work in 1995-96 is
.xpec~eo in the East Cnarleston/East Bayshore commercial are~_
Another project contributing to the inc'!"ease in capital
expenditures is th~ wastewater FUnd's System Rehabilitation and
Augmentation project. This $L4 million project to improve t.~e
City's collection systen"Ls represents a $2.9 million increase over
1993-94 fundin9. This project is part of the planned, accelerated
infrastructure enhancements within the Wastewater Fund.
A $3.1 million collection system Inp~ovements project in the storm
Drainage Fund, with a request for a t,hree-year debt-financed
proqra~, is scheduled for 1994-95. The program includes work such
as constructinq pump station improvements ~ desiqning and
constructing a project to correct recurring straet floodinq
throuqhout the City, and replacing and repairing: deteriorated
sections of the City's existing storm drain system~ As a result of
the debt issuance for storm drainage improvements, a request for a
rate increase in 1994-95 can be anticipated.
xaintenance Projects
DUritl9 the CIP process, one of staff's qoals was to identify
projects that involved either ongoinq maintenance or ongoing
equipment replacement activity. These projects, which are listed
on Attachment C, do not adhere to the CIP definition (see
Attaclment B) used to screen CIP requests. Implu.ent&tion of
Mission Driven Budgeting in 1995-96, which emphasizes the provision
of services~ vill be the time to transition these projects to the
operating budget~
Tbe effect of incorporating these pr":ljects within the 1995-96
operating budget will be to reduce the capital bodget by
approximately $526,OOO~ This would revise the target base capital
budget from $J. 0 million to approxi:mately $2~ 5 million, unless
Council ~irects otherwise.
lAoieets Con5ide~ed and Not fUnded
Several requested projects not included in the CIP budget are
called to Council's attention. Funding 'Was oriqinally requested by
the community services Depart~ent for the second and third phases
of the Golf Course Improve1!lent Elan. However, since the Golf
Course Master Plan (contract ~as awarded on October 25, 1993) bas
not been completed, s~aff will return to Council with a detailed
financial and implementation plan at a future date.

)

Another projer:t request~d by the community services Depl!rtment
involved Cubberley :Master Plan improvements. Before Cubberley 0
Master Plan improvements are imple~entedl it is important that they
be reviewed :by a citizen's co-rnmittee. Staff is organizing a
CUbberley citi~enr6 committee to review proposed improvements.
Other projects that ~ere requested but not recommende~ because of
runding and other factors ara listed on Attachment A.
Conclusion
This recommendation rep~esents the highest level of General Fund
support for capital improvements since 1991-92. The importance of
the rec-emmendation is highlighted by the ccntrasting financial
constrair:ts facinq the General FUnd operating budget. The 1994-~5
elP stresses the areas of par~s and infrastructure improvements
that City resjdents and Council have found neglected. In addition,
it continues the City's cOlMlitment to imp:r-ovinq its delivery cf
services through ne~ and more 2fficien~ infocmation systems and to
aaintalning a high level of cystomer services. The future breadth
of services Council ~ishes to make availa:ble through the Library
Automation services project will be discussed in a session fooused
on that issue. The project recommended in this CIP leaves a
variety of service options open.
The tac:t that the recoRlltlended fundinq level has increased over past 0.,.,
years 15 primarily due to the fact that the electric [""efund has
been used to f'und projects which need special attention, are
essential, and tit with council's priorities. The electric refund
allOWS the CIP to automate and enhance the delivery of information
in the City's libraries. The library automation program is a
service approach which ~e must continue to move forward ona Each
year the council and the community express dismay about the
condition of our City park system. Therefore, the second
bene'!actor of the electric refund. is the City's parks, where funds
are ded.icated to improving the softscape~ A caution in funding
these cwo areas with the electric refund is ~at this is a one-time
source ~hich will not :be available to maintain either of the
recommended projects in future years~
one objective for this elP budget ~as to be responsive to council's
continued request for staff to identify and eventually remove
-maintenance-projec~s from the CIP. The first step, identifying
-maintenance-projects, has been taken. Durinq t,he CIP process,
staft carefully evaluated each projeot to identify those projects
that should be moved into the operating :bUdget. The transition
will be completed in 1995-96. In 1995-96, the operating budget
will be formattad to focus on services provided. At that time,
projeots from the CIP that have been identified as "~aintenance~
will be budgeted with the services they support.

As usual, thEre were worthy projects submitted for consideration
and which 'Jere not recommended fel: a variety of reasons. The
primary# major constraint was funding. It did not appear prudent
to include projects where resources could not be ide.ntified to
aaintain and support them in future yedrs.
l!.cknovlelSqements
Preparation of the CIP has involved staff members frOiD all city
departments~ All who participa,ted .are thanked for the.ir e.fforts.
Tbe CIP Soreeninq Committee was chaired by Finance Director Emily
Harrison, who deserves special I"lI:':cogni,tlon for her leadership.
Membership on the Committee: included Glenn Roberts (Director of
Public Works), Ke~ Schreiber {Director of Planning and community
Environment)# Paul Th11tqen (Director of community Services}, and
Ed Mrizek (Director of utilities). These Committee members put in
CO\!J1tless hours analyzing and reviewing projects and are to be
thanked for their dedication. The committee w~s ~bly support~d ~y
Joe Saccio, who acted as staff to the Committee. Without bis
attention to detail and follow throuqhl the committee's work would
not have been successful.
The staff makes a conscious and dedicated effort each year to make
this document more ·user friendly· and hence, easier for Council
and the public to read and understand. I aa assisted in that
process through th.e secretarial support of Fan ventura and the
graphi~ expertise and assistance of Dave Matson and Oave Hatunen.
Their special skills have been utilizea to improve the presentation
of the document~ Their contribution is appreciated. Finally # I
vent to recognizoe all the individuals, too numercus to list, who
engaged in the tea~ effort to p~ovida the 1994-99 CIP.
Recommendation
Every project in this document, and those not included. have been
rEvi~~ed and approved by me. I recommend for your approval the
1994-99 Capital Improvement Progr-am budget for the City of Palo
Alto~ It carr-ies with it my full endorsement and approval.

ATTACHMENT B
1'94-99 CIP DEFINITION, G~IDELINES AND RANKING CRI~ERrA
Department CIP requests for 1994-99 must follow the elP definition
and quideline~ prcvided below.
Definition
A capital project is defined as follo~s:
Q has a minimum cost of $25,000 for each stand-alone unit or for
each usable system or network~ Combining sever-a 1 similar
purchases of stand-alone units under $25,000 each would not
qualify as a capital expenditure. An example is the purchase
of nine $3,000 computers. However, grouping related
components that together work logically as a usable system or
network qualifies~ An exalflple is upgrading all playground
equipment in a park# the individual pieces of which do not
cost $25#000.
o has a useful life of at least 5 to 7 years. In other words#
the purchase or project will still be functioning end not be
obsolete wi~hin at least 5 to 7 years.
o extends the lif'e of an existing asset or provlaes a new
tUl"lctional use. for an existing asset for at least 5 to 7
years. Examples are extensive root rehabilitations or a
buildcut to acconunodate new workers that cost 1C.o['"e than
$25#000. These improv~rnents are distinguished fro~ ongoing
naintenance work which may exte~d the life of the asset, but
is done on a routine basis .!!lInd froD minor re'lilodeling such as
replacement of furniture or partitions.
Note: If a department ha3 a project that is less than $25,000 and
believes it should be a elP project, submit the project and justify
wby it should be a elF project.

Pmlret Ilrsrrlptlon; This project represents 3. multi-year implementation plan to develop the
Litmry" computer system into an information networl; that can deliver new and omorging
savH:es 10 an library facilities and remo!J: users. This project is based on the complcrion in
1993-94 of Phase I, which replaces the ll.'r.,y's cu=1 computer p14tform with. Unix-based
o:ompulI:I'. Phases 2 1hrougb 4 repl= and develop ~"e compuler'. network S)'Slem, adds new
informatio1l dal8l>a ... to the online cotalog, provides access to the Interne! informatioo system,
netwmb CD-ROM serviI:es, adds tenninaIs and dial-in !ines, replaces outdated terminal. with
in1dligent workstations, and introduceo ~ional information networking. PIuIse 5, which will
bring !!Ophisticatod services cIirocUy 10 the home and office and to an expanded regionaJ network,
may begin in 199s,,99, but ",ill probably npt be complete until 2003.
CouDCil will diseuss and review the loog-range pIan for the ll.brary's Automation Services
request.
1994-9S: S297 ,000
Phase 2, planned for 1994-95, has three major componen!S: network development, adding
seIccted information services 10 the ll.'rary's online catalog, and replacing eiliting t<rminals
will! persooal COmplllelS. Network developmenl ""tails replacing the communication net",or1l:,
DOW based on low-spoed telephone links belween the computer .ystem and !he library br.IncIIes,
with a sy1Ien: that will.send information more rapidly and efficiendy. This will be accomplished
by Cling the City's utility C3ble system 10 linl< hcrari<>s. The second component is to load •
periodkaJ indexing servtre directly on to the l.Jbrary's cata1og. This will e7.p3l1d the ability to
search for magazir,e articles to all libraries. A third componeni in trjs phase includes replacing
40" of the If:rmir.als that bav~ ~ usW by patrons and staff 10 = the romjlUler with more
modem equipment, adding some dial-in lines and terminals for patron use, including some
opecialiud per>onaI romputen (pc'.) with softw-.re oriented 10 the cluldren', use of the online
catalog.
For funding and planning purposes the components of Phase 2 can be divided into th.,...., parts:
a) Incorporating • periodical inde<ing service on the Library'. ouilne cata1og, replacing
40" of !lie l.Jbrary" terminals with PC's, and adding public use equipment including
two PC', with the ~zed children', interface to the online catalog. 586,000 in

b) Connecting Main, Mitchell, and the ChildreJ1.'s Libraries by using the City's broadb3Jld
utility =ial cable sySlem to enhar.<e n<twork development. This part of Ph..,., 2,
costing $87.000. would be funded from one-time monies available from the Electric
Utility's rebate In the City.
o} The thin! part of !'base 2 includes: cennecting the remai;ung three libraries. Downtown.
College Ternc.e. and Terman via cable ($83.000); installing a Local An2 Network
within the Main ubrnry (56,000); and purch.as.ing additional ~uipment sLlch as PCs,

systematieally input the City base maps into a computer system datal>ase. Maps will contain all
informalion currently en the City" block maps and Utilities' maps, plus any additional
infonnatioo '"'Iuited or needed by other City departments. The base hardware/software system
was purcbtsed in fiseaI year 1989-90. The project Geographic Information Sy5lcms combines
~y titled Computer Aidc:cl Mapping and Computer Aidc:cl Drafting into one project.
This project will be completed in 1994-95.
Pm1crt Ju:stifqtion: This project greatly increases the ease of maintaining accurate maps. As
I!ICR utilities arc WIdcrgrounded, tiJere is an increased need for accurate infonnatioo 011 all
c:xilJting City utilities, as well as telephone, and Cable TV. This project creates up-to-daIe
00IIIplI1eri2l0 maps for !he entire City.

bridge to install OIl-road bicycle IlInes over San Francisquito Creek along Sa.,d Hill Road. and
COI!tinue bicycle lanes west to the intersection of Sand Hili RoadISanta Cruz Avenue.
lmiert Compgnents: 1be components of this proj~ indude ~nir.g a consultmt to complete
!he design \Om. constructing • widened bridge deck (8 feel) to provide bicycle lanes and
pe<lestrian walkways. and continuing llIe bicycle lanes west to the Sand Hill Road/Santa Cruz
intenoctioo. The work will include necessary approvals from the Santa Clara Valley Water
District and San Mateo County for the bridge w'.dening, and execution of. cost-sharing and
maintenance agreement(s) with the City of Merlo Parlt. The City of Menlo Park is the lead
agency Cot !his project.
PrvIert .lpstIf!qtion: Sand Hill Road is • major bike route connecting Menlo Park to Stanford
Shopping eerter. Stanford Unh·miry. and llIe City of Palo Allo. Bicycle lanes exist on Sarod
Hill from Santa Cruz A"",ue 10 Interstate 21!0. ar.d east of the bridge in Palo Allo. \Vidoring
the bridge and installing bicycle 1anes will complete a major missing gap in the area bikeway
system. This will improve the attractiveness of this corridor as a commute altemati>e for
bicyclists and enhance bike safety. The project al", adds pedestrian facilities on both sides of
!he bridge. Cumn!ly. a pe<!estrian walkway eltisIs OIl only one side of the bridge. Therefore.

l'rnls:;:t l!I5!jIkJticm; The electrical distribution system in Barron Park was purchased from
Pacific Gu &. Electric in 1912. The overhead system does no( meet currenl City construction
SIandards. Many of the poles were dWned inadequate during. 1991 inspection. A significant
munber of low voltage complaints occur in this area due to the inad«juate distnllution system.
The system, purchased from PG&.E, was designed 10 operate at 12,000 Volts rather than the
City SIaIIdard 12,470 Volts. The individual transfonners providing service to our customeIs

WilIER MAIN RFPLACEMENTS fl\Q16l
Pmlm Description: As the tiistnDution system ages, it becomes necessary to replace specific
WISeI' maiDs and appurtenances. Some mains are inadequate in size 10 supply required flows and
presswes for fire protection; others are subject to recurring break:5 due to construction material5
IDd C<In'ClSion. Staff b2s identified maill5 tIla! are undersized, corroded and subject 10 breaks;
IDd b2s developed a plan 10 acceIerall: the replacement of these critical elements of the water
distriNJtion syuem inft3structure.
The main '"Placements identified under this proje<:1 are coordinated with the Public Works
Department's Five-Year Paving Plan on the GIS/GDS system.
Emlecl ,lm!U""",lion: This proj"'1 improves system flows and pressures for domestic and fire
pmIieaioII uses. New data iruIitates • need f", fu:iber acceleration of the water main
replacemellt program. Approximately 78 miles DC the total 223 miles of the City'S water mains
.,., in need of rep1aeemenl or rehabilitation. The rate of main replacement bas ""'" increased,
_g in 1993-94, 10. rate of three mil .. per year. In additioo, al', Ol'.alysis of cost eff~ve
syuem improvements was initiated in 1993-94. The project will1ake up 10 25 years; priotity
will be given to the most def~ve portions of IiI< system. This i. an ongoing project to replace
