A. AUTHORIZETHECITY MANAGER TO SEND A LE TTE R TO THE STATE LANDS
COMMISSION CONDITIONALL Y WITHDRAWING THE CIT Y'S APPLICATION FOR
THE STATE LANDS COMMISSI ON PARCEL ON THE BAYFRONT WHILE THE CITY
NEGOTIATES WITH H&O ASIA PACIFI C FOR A HOTEL/PARK PROJECT ON THE
SITE
City Manager Goldman presented the staff report requesting Council to authorize the City Manager to send a
letter to the State Lands Commission C'SLC') conditionally withdrawing the City's application for the SLC
parcel on the Bayfront while the City negotiates with H&Q Asia Pacific for a hotel/park project on the site.
She reviewed the history of the SLC parcel, stating that for several years the City had worked to secure a
lease for the 8.81 acres of Bayfront property in order to build a park.
City Manager Goldman reviewed Council's plans for the park calling it a "Big Grassy Area". She explained
that the City wanted it as a large open space with picnic tables, similar to Crissy Field. She stated that over a
year ago, the City was informed by SLC that it received applications from hotels interested in the Bayfront
parcel. City Manager Goldman explained that Council then discussed whether it wanted to pursue a park or
hotel project for this land. Council determined thal a park was in the best interest of the City. Accordingly,
the City finished its application and circulated its Mitigated Negative Declaration, at which point the SLC
deemed the City's application complete.
City Manager Goldman explained that separately H&Q Asia Pacific submitted an application to SLC to build
a hotel and significant sized park on the property. She went on to explain that if the City was to build a park
at the Bayfront, SLC would most likely gmnt the City a 30 year lease and that the City would spend roughly
$5.6 million to develop the park.
Therefore, City Manager Goldman explained that given the short timeframe for the lease, the cost of
development and the City's decision to turf Murray Field, the City is considering fostering a relationship
with H&Q Asia Pacific to develop a park on a portion of the parcel. In order to move forward with H&Q
Asia Pacific, the City would need to withdraw its application from consideration.
Accordingly, the City Manager explained that she has drafted a letter withdrawing the City's application but
acknowledging the City's expectations that ifthe H&Q Asia Pacific partnership falters that the City expects
to regain its place in the queue.
Councilmember Brownrigg stated that in the letter since the State Lands Commission advised the City that it
could get its place back in queue that this should be included in the letter.
Vice Mayor Ortiz expressed his disappoint that the City was unable to get a lease for a longer period of time
from the State Lands Commission.
Mayor Keighran opened the item for public comment. No one spoke.
Councilmember Colson made a motion to authorize the City Manager to execute the letter with the change
requested by Councilmember Brownrigg; seconded by Vice Mayor Ortiz. The motion passed unanimously
by voice vote, 5-0.

b. ADOPTION OF A RESOLUTION OF INTENT T o AMEND THE CITY OF BURLINGAME
MASTER FEE SCHEDULE EFFECTIVE JULY I 2016 AND SET T E PUBI-t LIC HEARING
FOR SUCH AM ENDMENT FOR JUNE 6. 2OI6
Finance Director Augustine presented the staff report conceming the amendments to the City of
Burlingame's Master Fee Schedule. She explained lhal llYo ofthe City's revenue is derived from service
fees. However, she explained that a majority of the fees charged for City services (many of which are
discretionary) do not cover the cost ofthe services provided. She stated that the remaining cost ofthe
service is bom out of the general fund. Finance Director Augustine staled that when setting fees the City
tries to balance the level ofgeneral fund support for services with the level ofpublic benefit the service
provides the community.
She explained that there are three basic types ofpublic fees for service: (1) User Fees are fees where the user
receives some or all ofthe benefit such as recreation fees and park/facility rental; (2) Regulatory Fees where
the "driver" ofthe need for service pays most or all of the costs such as planning review and building
permits; and (3) Fines and Penalties which are not voluntary and are enforced to discourage illegal or
undesirable activities.
Finance Director Augustine explained the following standards for cost recovery: (1) there must be a formal
policy of the City regarding charges and fees; (2) the City must undertake a calculation ofthe full costs of
services in order to establish a basis for setting fees; (3) periodic fee review and update; and (4) an
explanation of fees and factors considered. She explained that in seuing fees staff took into consideration il
the services benefited an individual versus the community, the effect of fees on service use, feasibility of
collecting, discounted rates, cost allocation plan and compare fees ofneighboring cities.
Vice Mayor Ortiz asked about the changes in Engineering fees such as water main modification from $1,644
to $5,400 and lot line adjustment from $727 to $2,525. He asked why the City was either charging so liule
before or charging so much nou,. Finance Director Augustine stated that in the study of the final costs of
services it was determined that the cost was significantly more than what was previously thought.
Accordingly, the fees were increased in order to obtain a higher percentage ofcost recovery.
Mayor Keighran questioned the fee increases in Building, Engineering and Planning. She stated that her
concem was that the City could lose business because ofthe increase in cost. She gave the example ofthe
condominium permit where 4 units or less cost$4,475 and five units or more cost $5,950. She was
concemed that someone building condominiums with 16 units is paying the same amount as someone
building 5 units. CDD Meeker agreed with Mayor Keighran's point and stated that there was room to make
additional tiers for larger projects.
Mayor Keighran commented on the environmental negative declaration fee stating that this fee should be
tiered as well. Attorney Kane stated that environmental negative declarations are determined by certain legal
factors that are the same regardless ofthe size of the project. Accordingly, she explained that the same
amount of work would be necessary regardless of the size of the project.
Mayor Keighran stated her understanding but also stated that the growth ofthe fee was too large.
Mayor Keighran asked how the City's fees compared to neighboring cities. CDD Meeker stated that
historically, the City fees are comparable ifnot significantly lower than neighboring cities.

Mayor Keighran asked the Potice Department about the increases in the cost of audiotape fees' Captain
Matteucci explained that the Police no longer use audiotapes and instead use CDs or drives. He explained
that the technology is more expensive. City Attomey Kane added that all police records have to be reviewed
by Police's record manager and the City Attomey before being released.
Mayor Keighran asked about the $50 fee for curb painting investigation. Captain Matteucci explained that
this covers background checks on the companies hired.
Mayor Keighan asked about the permitting for taxicabs. Captain Matteucci stated that the permitting is
based on the individual coming forward and requesting a permit or being cited for not having a permit. He
explained that the Traffic Unit does taxi stings to ensure that taxis operating in Burlingame are permitted.
Councilmember Beach asked about the 55% cost recovery rate. She asked if there were any best practice for
cost recovery rates. Finance Director Augustine stated that it is impossible to generalize as each jurisdiction
is different on how it values its services. City Manager Goldman stated that it is a philosophical question on
how the City wants to spend its general funds.
Councilmember Beach stated that Mayor Keighran had a good point where the proposed fee is doubling or
tripling maybe a phase in approach would be best. Finance Director Augustine stated even with the doubling
or tripling offees, the City's cost recovery rate would remain at 550/0.
Mayor Keighran stated that she would be interested in the recommendations of the Departrnent Heads on the
increase in fees. Finance Director Augustine responded that their recommendations are the basis of the
amended Master Fee Schedule.
Councilmember Colson expressed her beliefthat Burlingame's quality ofservice and the efficiency and
speed of staff in completing projects is exceptionally high. However, she thought that while fees should be
increased, that the tripling of fees was too much.
Councilmember Colson asked about the fees for renting fields from Parks and Recreation. She stated that
there were different rates for renting fields depending on the type of user. Councilmember Colson expressed
her concem that some non-profit organizations had large budgets and should not be able to rent fields at
significantly lower rates based on their non-profit status.
Attomey Kane stated that ifa group is defined as a non-profit organization, that the City is unable to
differentiate between the levels of funding of non-profit organizations. However, she stated that Council
could redefine the user groups using different criteria. Attomey Kane stated that Council would need to keep
in mind that it would be up to Parks and Recreation staff to be able to easily identify which category a group
belonged in.
Councilmember Brownrigg stated that he supported the Master Fee Schedule and that 55% cost recovery
seemed low. Accordingly, he agreed with stafls recommendations to increase rates.
Vice Mayor Ortiz stated he agreed with most of the fees but that he didn't think that fees should increase by
300%. He stated that these fee increases should be phased in and that fee increases should be limited to 80-
100% annually.

The CalRecycle Grant Program provides State funds for community projects that increase
beverage container collection and reduce the waste stream. Grants are awarded through a
competitive process. The City has been awarded grants underthis program since FY 2005-06.
CalRecycle grant application procedures require the City Council to declare, by resolution, the

applications are due by June 1, 2016.
DISCUSSION
The City of Burlingame will apply for the maximum grant award for FY 2015-16 of $7,877. The
grant funds may be utilized to:
) Support AB 341 Mandatory Commercial Recycling to increase recycling by businesses
and multi-family residents
) Purchase new beverage recycling containers
> Purchase recycled content products such as compostable cups to reduce use of beverage
containers
) Perform outreach and education related to recycling programs
Although many of the City's recycling program efforts are provided by South Bayside Waste

RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt the attached resolution awarding a construction
contract to Minerva Construction, lnc., for the Miscellaneous Reservoir and Pump Station
lmprovements Project in the amount of $683,995, and authorizing the City Manager to execute
the Construction Contract.
BACKGROUNO
The Miscellaneous Reservoir and Pump Station lmprovements Project consists of a new wash
station at the Waste Water Treatment Plant (Location 1), and improvements at the Hillside
Drinking Water Reservoir (Location 2).
t99e!!9I{:ThenewwashStationattheWasteWaterTreatmentPlantwillbeusedtocleanthe
cityt *"t"r and wastewater vacuum trucks/street sweepers. The new wash station will provide a
safe and dedicated location to properly dispose of both liquid and solid wastes in compliance with
the National Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (NPDES) permit'
Location 2: The Hillside Drinking Water Storage Reservoir, located at 2832 Hillside Drive, was
O,,itt in tgtg. Though the reservoir is in working condition, it is in need of repairs. The outdated
existing pump station control house is on top of the reservoir, and the concrete reservoir is
"or"r"d
with soil. The project will construct a new pump station control house and remove the
Soil. The next phase of the project will be to assess the condition of the reservoir roof and seal
any cracks with a coating to extend its useful life.
Additional improvements, added to the project as bid alternates, include a new concrete
generator pad at the Donnelly Pump station located at 2817 Rivera Drive (Bid Alternate A), and
iew retaining walls for the Skyview Reservoir located at 1321 Skyview Drive (Bid Alternate B).
These improvements are necessary to extend the useful life of existing facilities.
May 16, 2016
The project, which was advertised for construction bids on April 1,2016, included the base bid
and two bid alternates. The poect bids were opened on April 20, 2016; a total of four bids were
received, with base bids ranging from $657,495 to $924,339. Minerva Construction, lnc. is the
lowest responsible bidder with its base bid amount of $657,495, which is approximately 4.3%
lower than the engineer's estimate of $686,853. The contractor also submitted bid alternates for
Bid Alternates A and B in the amount of $26,500 and $149,490, respectively. Staff recommends
that the City Council award the base bid and Bid Alternate A to take advantage of the favorable
bid prices. Staff has reviewed Minerva Construction, lnc.'s proposal and finds that the contractor
has mel all the project requirements and has a past history of performing similar work
successfully for other agencies. As a result, staff recommends that the City Council award the
pqect to Minerva Construction, lnc., in the amount of $683,995 and authorize the City Manager
to execute the construction contract.

Contract with Universal Building Services and Supply Company
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt the attached resolution approving the renewal of
the Janitorial Services Contract with Universal Building Services and Supply Company for two
years-
ln May 20"13, the City of Burlingame entered into a contract with Universal Building Services and
Supply Company (UBS) for the procurement of janitorial services to clean ten City building
facilities. The contract term was for three years with two, one-year renewal (extension) options at
the election of the City. The original contract award for the first year was $172,428; the second
year was $175,020; and the third year was $177,624. Two amendments were made to the
contract: one for additional services as requested by the City, and one for a price adjustment due
to the prevailing wage rate increases by the Public Utilities Commission, which brought the total
contract annual amount to $242,648.
DISCUSSION;
The Janitorial Services Contract with UBS is set to expire on May 17,2016. Staff is requesting
that the City Council extend the contract for two more years at the same amount of $242,648.
UBS has a proven track record of successfully providing janitorial services to the City, including
carpet vacuuming, windows cleaning, dusting, emptying of trash receptacles, bathroom cleaning,
and re-stocking toiletries at City Hall, the Recreation Center, Village Park, the Public Works
Corporation Yard, Fire Station 36, the Police Station, the Easton Library, the Main Library, the
Park Corporation Yard, and the Donnelly Parking Garage.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The estimated annual contract amount for the janitorial services contract is $242,648; the two-
year contract extension amount is estimated at $485,296. The Public Works Department's
operations budget will be programmed to cover the costs of the Janitorial Services accordingly.

Date: May'16,2016
From: Leslie Loomis, Human Resources Director - (650) 558-7209
Subject:Adoption of a Resolution Authorizing the City Manager to Recognize
Council 57 of AFSCME Local 829 as the New Bargaining Representative of
the Burlingame Middle Managers, Formerly Recognized as the Burlingame
Association of Middle Managers (BAMM)
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt the attached resolution authorizing the City
Manager to recognize Council 57 of AFSCME Local 829 as the formal bargaining unit for the
Burlingame middle management employees.
ln December 2015, AFSCME Local 829 submitted a petition to the City requesting the
decertification of the Burlingame Association of Middle Managers (BAMM) as the representative
of the middle management bargaining unit and the certification of AFSCME Local 829 as the new
representative. The City's Employee Employer Resolution (EER) states the steps required to
decertify an existing bargaining unit and to certify a new bargaining unit. The City and AFSCME
have completed all of the required steps and are now ready to finalize the certification of
AFSCME 829 as the official bargaining unit for 24 middle manager positions.
1
STAFF REPORT
To: Honorable Mayor and City Council
RECOMMENDATION
BACKGROUND
The final step of the process, as governed by Government Code Section 3607.1 and the city's
EER, is for a neutral third party to conduct a card or petition cross-check election. The purpose of
the cross-check election is to ensure that a minimum of 50% of the bargaining unit desires to be
represented by the proposed Union for purposes of collective bargaining. The City's Municipal
Employee Relations Officer contacted the State Mediation and Conciliation Service, a division of
the Public Employment Relations Board, to serve as the neutral third party Election Officer. On
Tuesday, May 10, 2016, the Election Supervisor from the State Mediation and Conciliation
Service conducted the cross-check election and determined that AFSCME Local 829 is the
exclusive bargaining representative for all employees in the middle management unit. The results
of the cross-check election are binding on both parties.
DISCUSSION
Following the City Council's action on this item, the City will meet and confer with AFSCME 829
on the middle managers' terms and conditions of employment.
Middle Management Bargaining Re presentative May 16, 2016
FISCAL
The change in representation will not have a direct cost to the City. The union dues are paid by
the represented employees.

C-S- 25.08.065 - Covered Porch FAR Exemptions May 16, 2016
Currently, Code Section 25.08.265(bX3XA) allows covered porches or decks on lhe first floor
totaling one hundred (100) square feet or less to be deducted from the floor area computation
for single family residences. Members of the Planning Commission have previously indicated an
interest in increasing the exemption to provide a greater incentive and to allow for more
generous porches. The Neighborhood Consistency Subcommittee was directed to study the
issue, and made recommendations to the full Planning Commission at its meetings on January
11, 2016 and April '11 , 20'16. The recommendations of the full Commission are hereby
presented to the City Council for consideration.
Through the design review process, the Planning Commission has encouraged applicants of
single family residential projects to incorporate covered front porches as one means of
contributing to a positive relationship between the home and the sunounding neighborhood. The
current 100 square foot floor area exemption is intended to provide an incentive, and in this
respect it has been successful in that it has been utilized with regularity. Over time, members of
the Planning Commission have indicated an interest in increasing the exemption to 200 square
feet to provide a greater incentive and to allow for more generous porches. The Neighborhood
Consistency Subcommittee was tasked with studying the proposal.
lnitially, the subcommittee expressed interest not only in allowing covered porches up to 200
square feet to be exempt from floor area calculations, but also to consider options for porches
greater than 200 square feet with a sliding scale. However to simplify the proposal and maintain
the focus on encouraging front porches, the final consensus of the subcommittee and the full
Planning Commission was to limit the proposal to the 200 square foot exemption.
With regards to design, any covered porch floor area exemption that is part of an application
would be subject to the Planning Commission's application of the Neighborhood Design
Guidebook. ln this context the Commission would address issues of design, scale, placement,
benefits to the street, and impact on neighbors as part of the design review process.
Changing the covered porch exemption from 100 square feet to 200 square feet would involve
the following amendment to Code Section 25.08.265":
a Excerpt has been provided. Please refer to Burlineame Municipal Code 25.08.265 for the full text of the section

various design issues that the Planning Commission has encountered through the design
review process.

From: Syed Murtuza, Director of Public Works - (650) 558-7230
Subject: City Council Direction Regarding the Broadway Grade Separation Project
Preferred Design Alternative
RECOMMENDATION
Staff recommends that the City Council receive a presentation pertaining to the feasible
alternatives for the Broadway Grade Separation Project, and provide direction regarding a
preferred alternative design.
BACKGROUND
The Broadway corridor network, between U.S. Highway 101 and California Drive, is heavily
travelled and is the most congested roadway in Burlingame. The daily average volume is over
70,000 vehicles. The traffic congestion and safety problems at the Broadway at-grade railroad
crossing are further exacerbated with the operation of the railroad safety gates to facilitate safe
crossings of trains. There have been numerous vehicleto-vehicle and train{o-vehicle accidents
along the corridor, that are attributed to the atgrade railroad crossing. Currently, the traffic delay
is highest during the weekday PM peak, with a recorded delay in excess of 324 seconds, or five
minutes. Without any grade separation, the PM peak delay along the corridor is expected to
increase dramatically, to 1,450 seconds (24 minutes), while the AM peak delay along the corridor
would increase to 1,570 seconds (26 minutes) by 2040. These delays take into account the
restoration of train service at the Broadway Caltrain Station, and the projected increase of trains
from the current 92 lo 220 by 2030. The traffic congestion and delays today already pose an
emergency response challenge and would result in impossible conditions in the future for first
responders, emergency services and for the general public if the problem is not addressed.

Date: May 16,2016
On February 12, the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC), Office of Rail Safety, Safety
and Enforcement Division issued its recommendation for "Grade Separation Priority List for Fiscal
Years 2016-2017 and 2017-2018". With over 10,000 at-grade railroad crossings throughout the
state, Burlingame's Broadway at-grade railroad crossing was ranked as #2 priority overall, and #1
priority for Northern California for this state-wide ranking (see attached Exhibit F). An evidentiary
hearing, pursuant to Administrative Law Judge (ALJ) Ruling, was held on April 19, 2016, whereby
City staff was required to appear in person to present evidence concerning, and confirming, the
nominated crossing on the Priority List. The confirmed ranking of the Broadway railroad crossing
as the second highest priority in the state demonstrates that there is a clear recognition by the rail
authorities that this at-grade crossing is in need of a grade separation.

City Council Direction Regarding the Broadway Grade Separation Project Prefered Altemative May 16, 2016
As part of the effort to evaluate grade separation alternatives at Broadway, in 2015 the City
initiated work to perform a Project Study Report (PSR), which was funded by the San Mateo
County Measure A Program. As part of this process, the City held three public community
meetings, one meeting with the Traffic Safety and Parking Commission (TSPC), and two Council
meetings, which includes this presentation. Additionally, staff and the consultant team met with
individual property owners and businesses along the Broadway corridor to obtain input regarding
preferred alternatives and potential right-of-way impacts to businesses. The TSPC and
community meetings were held to gather comments and concerns regarding consideration for
grade separation at Broadway, and to help better define the community needs and engineering
feasibility of a Broadway grade separation. Originally, six potential design alternatives were
examined. They were identified as Alternatives A - F. (Descriptions of each design alternative
are listed in the attached Exhibit B.)
DISCUSSION
Of the six design alternatives evaluated, two rose to the top for further consideration, and the
remaining four were discarded due to major negative impacts to the community and other fatal
flaws. At the January 19, 20'16 City Council meeting, staff presented specifics on the two
alternatives, which were identified as Alternative A and Alternative B. Alternative A consists of
partially lowering the roadway and raising the railroad tracks; Alternative B, which is a reverse of
Alternative A, involves partially depressing the railroad tracks and raising the roadway. Based on
the Council comments, more work was done to show a 3-D flyover rendering of Alternative B, and
to provide pedestrian level views of both alternatives. These two design alternatives, along with
the requested improvements, were presenled at the third community meeting, which was held on
March 31 , 2016 (attached Exhibit C outlines the positive and negative aspects of the two
alternatives).
Over 50 people attended the March 31, 2016 community meeting. At the end of the meeting, the
attendees were asked to fill out comment cards regarding any preferences they might have
pertaining to the two build altemative designs. Twenty-five cards were collected, with 20 votes
supporting Alternative A, two votes for Alternative B, and three votes for the No Build Alternative.
ln addition to the comment cards, the City also received a petition from the Broadway Business
lmprovement District (BlD) with 36 signatures from merchants and residents in the Broadway
area expressing strong support for Alternative A (see attached Exhibit E). ln total for that
evening, an overuhelming majority of the comments collected supported design Alternative A in
the form of 56 positive votes.
As a final step before concluding the PSR process, staff is requesting that the City Council review
a more detailed presentation on design Alternatives A and B (see attached Exhibit A), consider
and evaluate the public comments resulting from the March 31, 2016 community meeting, and
provide direction to staff on a prefened alternative design. The production of a clearly defined
PSR with a preferred alternative will put the City in a stronger position when pursuing future grant
and funding opportunities. The final goal of a comprehensive PSR is to advance the City's grade
separation project in order to fund the next development stage for environmental clearance and
detailed engineering design.

FISCAL IMPACT
The Broadway PSR was funded by a Measure A Program Grant in the amount of $1,000,000.

Broadway Grade Separation Study
Community Meeting
March 31,2016
Meeting Summary Report
The City of Burlingame hosted the third of three community meetings for the
public to leam about the new Broadway Grade Separation Study project The
meeting was held on March 31, 2016 from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. in the Lane Room at
the Burlingame Public Library, 480 Primrose Road in Burlingame.
After a brief introduction by the meeting facilitator, the City's Mayor Kieghran
welcomed the community members and introduced Councilmember Beach who
was also in attendance. Mayor Kieghran highlighted the safety and congestion
relief context for the project and explained the funding expectations and process.
She explained the cunent need for the project independent of the proposed High
Speed Rail project or any capacity increases from Caltrain. The Mayor did point
out that should those rail plans be implemented it would make the section of
Broadway near the grade separation very congested. She also gave a brief
history of the project and the purpose of the Study effort. She highlighted the
need for reliable access across the railroad tracks for safety reasons.
Following her remarks, the facilitator reviewed the agenda and format for the
evening and introduced the AECOM Project Manager who presented the project
altematives utilizing a PowerPoint presentation and visual renderings and
simulation videos. At the conclusion of the presentation, the audience had
approximately 35 minutes of general questions with the project team and then
adjourned to fill out public input cards. There were also two virtual reality headset
goggles showing the altematives in 3-dimension available to the public before
and after the meeting.
The general questions and the answers provided at the meeting are captured
below as are the comments registered on the 25 comment cards tumed in at the
meeting. ln addition, a petition was handed in at the meeting signed by 36
community members representing businesses along Broadway. The petition
indicates support for Altemative A and is attached as attachment A.
The meeting was noticed through e-News from the Burlingame staff to the broad
city electronic newsletter distribution list, special distribution to project
stakeholders including the Broadway Business lmprovemenl District and the area
car dealers and meeting attendees from the first and second meetings. The
Exhibit D
notice was also posted on the city website. Approximately 60% said they
received the email notice. Approximately 40% indicated they saw a notice on
NextDoor, 25% saw the City blog,20o/o saw E news, 10% heard about the
meeting through the Community Coalition-High Speed Rail and 5% indicated
they heard about the meeting through word of mouth. Attendees were asked for
a show of hands for each method that would apply.
When the attendees arrived they were asked to sign-in to become part of a
database for notification of any future meetings related to the project. A project
frequently asked questions (FAa) document was distributed at the meeting.
Approximately 50 people attended the meeting. Approximately 85% of the
attendees indicated they were project neighbors and the remaining 15%
identified themselves as business owners. No one indicated they were a Caltrain
user. About 60% of the attendees had attended a previous community meeting
for the project wilh 2Oo/o of the attendees saying they had attended both previous
meetings
General Session Questions:
The questions received during the general session question period are as follows
the answers given are shown:
Yes.
Where exactly will the train station be
located?
That has not been determined. There
are multiple places where the station
could be located including directly over
Broadway.
No. They indicate a full right-of-way
take as a result of the project and that
the existing buildings would be
removed.
Do the red "x's" in the Altemative B
animation mean nothing can be built
there?
Would the City be able to sell the
acquired properties to developers?Yes, that could be an option.
Yes, that is the cunent belief but there
will need to be a tree survey in the next
phase of the project to locate trees and
determine impacts.
ls the stand of eucalyptus impacted
only in Altemative B?
Question Response
Will a train station be operational in the
future conditions if an altemative is
built?
Exhibit D
Are drainage pumps needed only in
Alternative B?
For Altemative B, drainage pumps and
syphons will be required at the existing
creeks and drainage crosses along the
trench to convey water under the
trench. These are not required in
Altemative A.
Staging details and durations would be
worked out in the next phase of the
project. ln order to minimize disruptions
and closures, local streets would be
constructed in phases such as one-half
at a time.
How can streets remain open in
Stage 3 of Alternative A?
Does this grade separation preclude
other grade separations within
Burlingame?
No, other grade separations are
independent of the grade separation at
Broadway.
A 4th altemative would be to dig
deeper; cut and cover.
The team looked at that alternative that
placed the train in a trench -
Alternative and there are operational
issues related to that design that were
identified as fatal flaws.
BART has water issues today that
cause maintenance and operational
impacts and have long-term
maintenance costs.
How did BART handle water issues of
cut and cover on other projects like
San Bruno?
Will Alternative A have issues with
track drainage?
No, only Alternative B would have track
drainage as well as long{erm
maintenance.
Why is the cost of condemnation and
purchasing buildings and the lost tax
revenue for the City not in the cost
estimate?
Concern expressed about the
developability of remainder parcels in
Alternative B?
The costs to acquire land are part of
these cost estimates. The costs for
condemnation and lost tax revenue are
not in the cost estimates.
It is likely that those comer parcels
shown in the Alternative B animation
that are below the elevated roadway
could require sometime of drainage
system to prevent water ponding and
flooding, and would need a de-watering
system which could impact their
viability for development.
Question Response
Exhibit D
Alternative A is similar to the type of
hybrid grade separation at Holly Street
in San Carios. This type of hybrid
construction is the most common along
the Caltrain alignment.
How does Alternative A compare to
Belmont and San Carlos?
The pedestrian crossing at Monell
could be a 'breezeway style"
undercrossing in Alternative A. For
Altemative B it would be an over-
crossing over the tracks. Both designs
would need to meet ADA standards.
How is the Morrell pedestrian crossing
treated under Altemative A?
With more cars and trains are two
tracks enough for 200+ trains per day?
Why does the City need this project?
Caltrain's environmental document
shows that with the anticipated 1 14
trains from Caltrain, the existing two
track configuration would be sufficient
Burlingame first started to look into a
grade separation at Broadway in 1963.
It is very congested and not safe today.
Out of over 10,000 grade separations
in the state, this crossing ranks number
2 on the state's priority list. The priority
list looks at existing conditions not
future grov/th. Further addition of more
trains by Caltrain and potentially High
Speed Rail will further exacerbate the
local traffic and safety conditions.
Yes.
ls it possible to place the station above
Broadway, like Ralston, in Altemative
A?
You bring up a good point. During the
next phase of the project, circulation
and safety will be investigated in depth
to develop designs that are pedestrian
and bicycle friendly.
Pedestrian circulation is worse with
grade separation; there is a dual right
from Northbound California which
would make crossing at that location
less safe than existing conditions for
bikes and pedestrians.
Alternative A is a great idea.Comment noted.
There is a petition with 36 signers in
favor of Alternative A.
Question Response
Comment noted. Petition is attached as
attachment A.
ln the next phase of the project, noise
measurements will be made to assess
the current noise issues and then be
evaluated to determine mitigation
measures to attenuate noise.
At this preliminary state, we have not
done an analysis of day time versus
night time construction, which will be
done in future design phases.
There is a conc€rn with noise
generated by train frequency and
elevation. What kind of noise analysis
has been done?
Will there be construction at night?
Caltrain electrification is a separate
project that is environmentally cleared,
funded and already underway.
The tall OCS poles will be an eyesore
and a health issue. Can we stop the
Caltrain electrifi cation project?
The toe of slope to toe of slope would
be approximately 45 feet wide based
on:
15 feet from toe of retaining wall
to centerline 'l st track
1S-ft track spacing
1 5 feet from centerline 2nd track
to toe of retaining wall.
The track grade (slope) is
approximately 1%
How wide will the separation be in
Alternative A?
How fast can the train ascend the
separation what is the rule of thumb
calculation?
Question Response
Exhibit D
Cards:
Twenty-five (25) comment cards were received. Of those, twenty (20) supported
Alternative A, two (2) supported Alternative B and three (3) were in favor of the
No-Build Altemative. ln addition, a petition was handed in at the meeting signed
by 36 community members representing businesses along Broadway. The
petition indicates support for Alternative A and is attached as attachment A.
Comments provided on the cards are set out below:
What about the trees north of
Broadway - are these impacted by
Altemative A?
In the next phase of the project, a tree
survey would be conducted to
determine if these trees are impacted.
Exhibit D
Supporting Alternative A
Also faster project and less money.Less disruption to my neighborhood
(Oak Grove and Califomia Drive).
Cleaner; cheaper; much better visuals;
more trees; better landscaping; retains
buildings.
The overpasses in Alternative B look
like Texas. Water is a no-go for
Alternative B.
Less expensive, less issues; lower
upkeep, even though elevated.
Appears to be better looking.
Less expensive and can be built faster.
Cost and impact.
Cost and safety, but absolutely hate
that we'll have a dividing wall
separating the City into two; very sad.
Don't care about the businesses. They
fought extending the sound wall at
Highway 101 and now the residents
remain, yet these CCR businesses
have closed and are eyesores.
Can Caltrain hom volume be lowered?
Sound concems in neighborhood.Less disruptive to neighborhood
Cheaper, more likely for quicker
funding; less disruptive to businesses.
Concems about noise!
Noise, truck access through area; tree
screens; pedestrian access - walking,
wheelchairs, bikes along depressed
roadway sidewalks. Night construction
in neighborhood.
Less impact on community; train higher
but mostly covered by trees and
landscaping. Don't like Altemative B:
start freeways, train disappears but no
landscape, looks like 101 and its exits
and entry, hopefully impacts current
train views.
Less cost and faster construction.
Best and most viable alternative and
less disruption.
Simpler, quicker, cheaper, less
intrusive.
Opposed widening California Drive.
Addition of righLtum lane at Broadway
created pedestrian hazard. THIS LAST
PART BASED ON HAND.DRAWN
MAP ON BACK OF CARD
Why Like Alternative A?Other Comments Written on Cards
Less expensive; Iess obtrusive.
Exhibit D
Just get it started. Don't like
Alternative B - a disaster with water
and overhead wires.
The San Bruno separation is attractive
- does not affect the commercial. The
fence option in Altemative B would be
very ugly and susceptible to graffiti and
accidents.
I like the arch as a gateway to
Broadway. This looks like the best
option for bikes and pedestrians to Bay
Area.
It is a lot better looking and less costly
to the City. lt should look like San
Carlos.
lf HSR bullet stops due to funding, then
BART must be considered in Peninsula
Conidor - replacing Caltrain with BART
would then complete loop around the
Bay.
Least impact; amenable to BART in the
future.
lssue not whether you can see train, its
whether you can see other side.
Can see other side of city/noise
mitigation issue questionable more
small town phase.
See petition attached as attachment A
supporting alternative A and signed by
36 community members.
Cheaper and better
Why Like Alternative A?
Supporting Alternative B
Supporting No-Build Alternative
The option of digging deeper as an
additional option.
Best longterm solution anticipating
high train frequency for all of
Burlingame.
Other Comments
More time needed to see what
happens with high speed rail. lf
electrification occurs, then potentially
there will be fewer cars on the road.

Exhibit D
Meeting Summary by Apex Strategies
Because this presentation seems
slanted toward Altemative A. I don't
understand why the train can't be
further underground, eliminating the
raised roadway, fencing, etc. I am Ery
concemed about this Altemative A
creating an opportunity for HSR to
demand elevation.
Because by 2040 we will be flying in
our flying cars, telecommuting and
beaming ourselves to where we want
to go.

Re, The Broadway Grade Separation
Honorable Mayor and City Council,
The Broadway Ave. merchants would like to go on record as supporting Alternative A of
the grade separation plans. Our reasoning is as follows:
1) Both the communities of Burlingame and Hillsborough would benefit greatly by a
modern, well desiSned Sateway to our cities, such as alternative A'
2) Given the cost of the other options, A is really the only financially viable design'
3) Given the design limitations of trenching: a) due to our high water table we would
need to pump out the trench constantly, if there was a major power failure the
trench would flood . b) The need to route our new, well operating storm drains and
inftastructure under a long trenched area. Burlingame has just got its flooding
problems under control with our new storm drain system. lf the storm drains have
to go under a trench, we will have to use pumps on the storm drains too' This would
open the city up to flooding problems again when a ma,ior power failure occurs'
4) public safety. we need to have traf{ic flow smoothly off of our new overpass so that
it doesn't back up to lol causing a hazard. Additionally, when traffic is backed up on
Broadway,weneedtokeepthecarsoffthetrackssotherearenofatalities'These
two public safety points will only intensify when the trains are electrified,
dramatically boosting the number of trains per hour.
5) lt will make it possible to reopen the Broadway train station again to 7 day a week
service. Broadway used to have the highest non automobile driving ridership of any
of the peninsula train stations.
6) Alternative A has the least ritht of way complications of the plans except trenchinS,
which is imPractical.
7) Visual impact on our city. Option A will minimize the berm or elevation needed to
raise the train above Broadway by lowering Broadway just enough to accommodate
traffic, but not so deep as to lose the first block of BroadwaY as the other plan
would do. The elevated train tracks wouldn't be high enough to cause the Berlin
Wall effect and would touch down to ground level before they approached oak
Grove. Most of the elevated portion of the track would be industrial both north and
south of Broadway.
Sincerely, the Broadway Merchants.

APPENDIX A - Proposed Priority List for Fiscal Years 2016-2017 and 20'17-2018
This report submits the grade separation priority list (Priority List) for fiscal years (FYs)
2016-2017 and 2017-2018 for the 38 highway-rail crossing (crossing) construction
projects that qualified for state Section 190 funding. The Section 190 Grade Separation
Program is executed under Streets and Highways (S&H) Code Sections 190-192 and
2450-2461 . The attached Priority List in Appendix A is issued in compliance with
California Public Utilities Commission's (Commission) Order lnstituting lnvestigation
(Oll) proceeding 1.15-06-008, dated June 11 ,2015, and the presiding Administrative
Law Judge's (ALJ) procedural schedule ruling of December 17 , 2015 (Ruling). The
ALJ's Ruling set Friday, February 12, 2016, as the due date for the Commission's
Safety and Enforcement Division, Office of Rail Safety, Rail Crossings and Engineering
Branch (RCEB) Staff Exhibit (Staff Exhibit). The ALJ Ruling also ordered parties to file
comments on the Staff Exhibit by Friday, February 26,2016. 1.15-06-008 established
the criteria for funding of grade separation projects in accordance with Section 2452 of
the S&H Code.
PROCEDURAL HIST RY AND SCHEDULE
On June 22,2015, the Commission issued 1.15-06-008 for the purpose of establishing
and fumishing to the California Transportation Commission (CTC) and Califomia
Department of Transportation (Caltrans) a Priority List of highway-rail grade separation
projects eligible for state Section 190 funding. S&H Code Section 2452 requires the
Commission to establish the Priority List for grade separation projects and furnish it to
theCTCbyJulyl"tofeachyearforuseintheFYbeginningonthatdate. 1.15-06-008
established the process for interested parties to submit proposed projects to be included
in the new Priority Listfor FYs 2016-2017 and20'17-2018 and to submit to the
Commission their nominations for grade separation projects by Friday, October 23,
2015. RCEB staff (Staff) received a total of 38 nominations for projects to be included
in the current Priority List.
The ALJ Ruling established the schedule for l.'15-06-008. ln Ruling, the ALJ set
February 12,2016, as the due date for the Staff Exhibit, including the proposed Priority
List, to be sent to the parties on the service list. The ALJ Ruling also ordered parties to
file and serve comments on the Staff Exhibit by Friday, February 26, 2016. As
prescribed in the ALJ Ruling, the final date for revision of Staff Exhibit and the date for
mailing the evidentiary hearing schedule to nominating applicants is March 18,2016.

Evidentiary hearings will be held as follows:
I..I5-06-008 REQUIRES EACH NOMINATING PARTYS REPRESENTATIVE TO
APPEAR PERSONALLY AT THE HEARING TO UPDATE, CLARIFY, OR EXPLAIN
EACH NOMTNATION, AS NECESSARY.
Staff evaluated each of the project nominations by analyzing data submitted, comparing
information to Commission records, and researching accident history. Certain parties
submitted supplemental information at the request of Staff, or on their own. Of the 38
project nominations received, Staff determined all 38 projects are qualified. Staff
calculated the priority ranking for each of the projects based on the formulas adopted in
1.1 5-06-008, Appendix 2.
Staff analyzed projects involving closure andior separation of multiple crossings in the
same manner as a single crossing project. Staff determined the point allocation for
multiple crossing projects by adding vehicle counts, number of accidents, and crossing
geometric points for each of the crossings. For the special condition factors of
passenger buses, school buses, hazardous trucks, and crossing blocking delay, Staff
considered those not on the same roadway and added those points.
Allocations made pursuant to S&H Code Section 2453 shall be made according to S&H
Code Section 2454, including:
For a project ranked the highest on the Priority List, the CTC may allocate up
to $15,000,000 to it, as provided by S&H Code S 2454(cX2).
For a project seeking multi-year funding, not to exceed five (5) years, an
allocation of $5,000,000 to $20,000,000 may be requested, as prescribed by
S&H Code S 2454(dX1) . The allocation for any one of those multiple years
shall not exceed the amount prescribed by S&H Code $ 2a5a(c). An agency

option is not eligible for another project for a 1o-year period unless funds are
available for alloeltion, as prescribed by S&H Code S 2454(dX2). ln addition,
the allocation for any one of those multiple years shall not exceed the amount
prescribed by S&H Code $ 2a5a(c) of $5,000,000.
For any other project, up to $5,000,000, or 80 percent of the estimated project
cost, whichever is less, may be received, as provided by S&H Code $
2454(c)(1).
Crossing Geometric Factor: The crossing geometric factor for each crossing was
awarded 0 to 17 points based on the relative severity of physical conditions including
sight distances, crossing angles, surface profiles, traffic, and roadway characteristics.
Blocking Delay, Passenger Buses, School Buses, and Hazardous Material Trucks
Factor: Staff assigned the values for the Blocking Delay (BD) factor within a range of 1
to 5. The BD factor accounts for the total daily time a crossing is blocked by trains. A
similar process is used to determine variables included in Other Factors (OF) such as
average daily traffic counts (ADT) for school buses (SB), passenger buses (PB), and
trucks carrying hazardous material (HT). The BD, PB, SB, HT factors are as follows:
BD (total

Accident History (AH): ln evaluating the project nominations, Staff reviewed AH for
the 1O-year period of October 24,2005 through October 23, 2015. The AH only
included vehicle and pedestrian versus train incidents, excluding suicides. AH does not
include other incidents at or near the crossing, such as vehicle versus vehicle or vehicle
versus fixed object incidents.

BURLINGAME
Exhibit G
BROADWAY GRADE SEPARATION
Preliminary Project FACYs
1. Other than cost, can you thoroughly explain the engineering challenges and risks associated
with option B (trenching the train, and running the cars above?) lthink most people understand
"the water table" is an issue in a broad sense, but can you elaborate?
The PowerPoint presentation at the March 31't meeting willgo over the construction
sequencing and challenges. The major ones are:
. Significant disruption to traffic circulation and Caltrain operations
. Extended duration of construction
o Shoofly* construction to maintain Caltrain operations while excavating trench
. Significant impacts to private properties due to right-of-way takes
. Significant impacts to Broadway Commercial District and Auto Dealerships
Note: * shoofly is a temporory roilrood trock built to mointoin troin service operotions
while constructing new permonent railrood trocks.
Would there be additional ongoing expensive maintenance? How costly would that
likely be to the city on an annual basis?
Yes there would be additional long term maintenance costs associated with maintaining
pump plants for drainage. These costs would be borne by the City. we do not have a
definite number but with at least 5 pump stations/syphons, a ballpark estimate would
be additional dedicated maintenance staff at S300K to $400K per year as a minimum. ln
addition, there will be ongoing costs associated with back-up power such as mobile
generators for each location (see response to d below).
b, Would there be high probability of leaks that could affect train service?
Leaks are to be expected with high ground water. This is one of BART's main issues with
maintenance and causes many system failures due to water intrusion into electrical
systems and corrosion of materials such as trackways and other metals. There is one
stretch of tunnel in BART between Civic Center and 15th Street that has required track
replacement within 2 years due to corrosion.
c. ls FEMA'S flood zone an issue?
The project is within the FEMA 100-year floodplain. Any change in drainage patterns
would need to be modeled and submitted to FEMA to show that the project does not
a
Exhibit G
d. What happens when major storms hit?
When a major storm hits, the reliability of pumps to pump water is an issue as well as
power to run the pumps. lf either of these fails, then the water will start to fill the
trench and there could be service disruption. At a minimum, a maintenance engineer
would need to be on call during these events to manage and assess the situation. Back-
up power sources such as mobile generators would be required to be on call for all 5
locations.
ls there a risk in operating an electrified train in a potentially flooded trench a safety?e
Yes, there is potential safety risk in operating electrified trains in flooded trench. This
also affects reliability of train operations.
f. ls sea level rise a long-term concern?
Yes it is a concern. Sea level rise numbers for the bay area are projected to be around
+3 feet. This may further exacerbate the risk of operating trains in a trench.
g. How do sewers and creeks play into the option B scenario? (Beyond the initial
engineering costs and time.I
Sewers, creeks and drainage facilities would require a syphon to pump water/sewer
down and under the trench (see below sketch) with lift stations at either side of the
trench. These types of systems are expensive to maintain and have reliability issues as
well. Many flood control agencies discourage the use of these systems because of long
term maintenance and reliability.

L
2. lf trenching is so challenging from an engineering point of view, how does BART do it?
Trenching is a challenging engineering issue especially in developed areas that add constraints
on how construction is implemented. ln the 196Os, BART used cut-and-cover excavation to
construct in Downtown Oakland and San Francisco. This construction lasted many years and
disrupted City streets for years - impacting businesses and local circulation. Currently, SFMTA is
building the Central Subway, which is a drilled shaft below BART from South of Market to
Chinatown. Many streets nearby are disrupted, and there have been several street closures for
alter FEMA floodplains. This may require adding downstream capacity (i.e. expanding
drainage facilities to the east).

Exhibit G
long periods of time. The cost is in the billions. Also there are long term maintenance issues for
these underground facilities such as groundwater infiltration that affects services and reliability.
3. ls CalTrain trenched anywhere else along the line?
Caltrain tracks are not trenched anywhere along their line
4. What does Burlingame propose to do with the other Burlingame train crossings when
electrification comes? Would some likely be eliminated? Would we likely advocate for grade
separation at other crossings too?
The Caltrain Electrification Project does not propose any grade separation in Burlingame. Except
for the Broadway crossing,there is no identified need for g rade seoaration for other crossinss an
Burlinsame. Broadway is the only crossing identified in the statewide priority list; no other
Burlingame grade crossing is on the grade separation list. The other grade crossings in
Burlingame include: Oak Grove Ave., North Lane, Bayswater Ave., Howard Ave. and Peninsula
Ave.
lmplementing a grade separation at Broadway does not preclude grade separating these other
crossings in the future. The issues and costs would be comparable for these streets, but the
distances between oak Grove Ave., North Lane, Howard Ave., Bayswater Ave., and Peninsula
Ave. may require that these be all grade separated or a combination of grade separation and
closure. Further circulation studies would be needed to assess these sites.
5. The January presentation suggests scenarios A & B minimize right-of-way takes / eminent
domain. which one would require more land? Can you elaborate?
Alternative B would require significantly more ROW takes especially in the Broadway
Commercial Area. The elevation difference for the elevated roadway would take the first block
of the downtown area due to access impacts to those buildings and businesses. lnaddition,the
temporary shoofly for the railroad track would impact several buildings that are built up to
Caltrain ROW (about 15+ commercial buildings).
There is a place holder for the cost of the station in the estimates for both. There is a building
shown in both Alternatives that represents the station as a place holder.
7. Option A = tracks will be 13' higher than street level. But how high will the entire train and wires
be above ground at the highest point?
The overhead wires are about 22 feet above the track level. This is a safer design as people
cannot inadvertently touch wires. ln Alternative B the high-voltage wires will be at a level that
someone could touch them which will require high fencing and armoring to prevent people from
touching or damaging wires.
5. ls the cost to build Broadway station included in the estimates for grade separation A & B
scenarios? (Broadway station does not appear in the fly-over presentation.)
Exhibit G
The best type of anti-grafFrti is to use plantings (such as ivy) as was done on Holly Street in San
Carlos. Where possible we would look to use berms in lieu of wall if there is enough ROW for
grading.
9. Will train noise be quieter with option B or option A?
ln the trench option the concrete wall will tends to reflect the train noise and this can lead to
properties that don't currently hear trains getting more noise than they currently experience. ln
option A, installation of acoustical panels at the train wheel levelto attenuate noise will mitigate
this issue.
10. lf Council oK's the elevated train option A, some community members are concerned it would
be against council's letter to HSR Authority (from 2010) opposing any kind of elevated
alignment-prior to blended system compromise.
The City Council letter in 2010 was in response to the Aerial Viaduct AliSnment of High Speed
Rail throughout the entire corridor in Burlingame proposed by CHSRA at that time. Based on the
best information available at this time, the CHSRA is not proposing to elevate the tracks along
the Caltrain corridor like they did in their previous attempt. They plan to run High Speed Trains
at existing grade without making changes to the existing alignment. The Alternative A for
Broadway Grade Separation partially raises the railroad track and partially depresses the
roadway to minimize visual impacts, and significantly limits the raised portion railroad tracks,
which is completely different than what was proposed in 2010 by CHSRA. lf the City were to
choose to not grade separate Broadway, and leave the situation as it is, the projected increase
in the overall number of trains from currently at 92 per day to 220 per day by 2030 (information
per PCJPB and CHSRA), will result in a significant traffic circulation failure and cause safety
problems. This is particularly siBnificant because Broadway is the gateway to Burlingame from
US 101, and the only direct access to it. Additionally, this will affect the entire Broadway
corridor, including the commercial district and the Bayfront hotels' patrons and businesses that
use Broadway to visit our downtown areas.
11. Some community members are concerned that the City is rushing this proposal decision in order
to get a shovel-ready poect in the pipeline, and we may not be researching all the options
carefully enough.
The City issued an RFP, and hired a well-qualified engineering consultant to identify and
evaluate all options available to address the Broadway grade crossing problem. The consultant
firm URS/AECOM comprehensively studied the issues, performed analysis, and identified six
potential alternatives, of which four were discarded because of severe flaws in them, and
narrowed their focused on two alternatives with extensive details including 3D animation of
buildout-concepts. The amount of work done to provide details of renderings on this proiect is
beyond the original scope and unusual at this stage per industry standards. Staff and the
proiect team believe that all feasible options have been adequately studied and presented at
this time. Staff welcomes hearing from anyone with a better idea of a feasible alternative that
hasn't been studied as of yet, which would solve the Broadway grade crossing problem in a
more effective and efficient manner, with fewer challenges and issues.

STAFF REPORT
To:Honorable Mayor and City Council
Date: May 16,2016
From: Carol Augustine, Finance Director - (650) 558-7222
Subject:Adoption of a Resolution of the City Council of the City of Burlingame
Approving the lssuance by the Burlingame Financing Authority of Not to
Exceed $19,500,000 Aggregate Principal Amount of Water and Wastewater
Revenue Refunding Bonds to Refund Burlingame Financing Authority
Water and Wastewater Revenue Bonds Series 2007; Authorizing the
Execution and Delivery of lnstallment Sale Agreements and a Bond
Purchase Contract; Approving the Form of the Official Statement; and
Authorizing Execution of Documents and the Taking of All Necessary
Actions Relating to the Financing with the Burling ame Financinq Authority
Staff recommends that the City Council adopt the Resolution approving all actions relating to
refinancing the 2007 Water and Wastewater Revenue Bonds.
On April 26, 2007, the City (via the Burlingame Financing Authority) issued $25."18 million of
Water and Wastewater Revenue Bonds, Series 2007 ("2OO7 Bonds"). The 2007 Bonds
financed various capital improvements to the City's Water System and Wastewater System.
Pursuant to the 2007 Water lnstallment and Wastewater lnstallment Sale Agreements, the City
makes debt service payments secured by revenues from the water and wastewater enterprise
systems.
The 2007 Bonds are currently outslanding in the amount of $19,525,000, with interest rates
ranging from 4.0o/o to 5.0o/o. The remaining principal currently matures from 2017 to 2031. The
2OO7 Bonds can be prepaid beginning April 1,2Q17 at a call price of 100o/o (no prepayment
penalty).
DISCUSSION
Municipal interest rates continue to be at historically low levels. The Federal Reserve supported
the current low interest rate environment by continuing to use economic policies (e.9.
"quantitative easing") to keep interest rates low through 2015. Despite an increase in short-term
rates adopted in December 2015, slowing global growth trends and oil market volatility have
supported a continued low interest rate environment. ln addition, investors remain drawn to the
safety of municipal bonds. The higher level of investment in these instruments has put upward

pressure on demand. Based on the existing favorable interest rate environment and potential
for future volatility in the municipal market, it is prudent to place the City in position to refinance
the 2007 Bonds for significant savings.
Based on current interest rates, refinancing the 2007 Bonds can save the City about $1.9 million
over the remaining life of the bonds (equal to approximately $126,000 of annual savings over
the next 15 years). Put another way, the City will save $1,597,000 in today's dollars, which is
equal to 8.17o/o of the refunded bond amount. Typically, municipal issuers set a minimum
present value savings goal equal to 3% of the refunded bond amount to determine if a
refinancing is worthwhile to pursue-
The 2007 Bonds currently have an'AA+' rating from Standard & poor's. lt is expected that the
upcoming 2016 Refunding Bonds will receive the same rating based on the strong credit
characteristics of the city and its enterprise systems. This strong rating will enable the city's
bonds to garner better interest rates from investors relative to other bonds that are curren y
being sold in the municipal market.
Depending on market conditions, the Bonds are scheduled to be sold in mid-June 2016 and are
expected to close in early July 2016. The City will have the ability to modify this schedule based
on the state of the municipal market and expected savings. The proceeds will be deposited in
an escrow fund and invested in u.s. Treasury securities until the prepayment date. These
proceeds will be sufficient to prepay the outstanding 2007 Bonds on April 1, 2017.
Orrick, Herrington & Sutcliffe LLP will serve as Bond Counsel. Stifel Nicolaus will serve as
underwriter for the bonds, which will be sold on a negotiated basis. public Financial
Management (PFM) will serve as Financial Advisor for this transaction.
Copies of the Resolutions, Water lnstallment Sale Agreement, Wastewater lnstallment Sale
Agreement, Bond rrust Agreement, Escrow Agreement, preliminary official statement, and
Bond Purchase Agreement are available for public inspection at the Office of the City Clerk.
Electronic copies are also available for e-mail to Council members as well as interested
members of the public by contacting the City Clerk. The blanks in the Preliminary Official
Statement and Bond Purchase Agreement are intentional and will be filled in once the issuance
moves forward and the bond sale is completed.
FISCAL IMPACT
The average interest rate on the new refunding bonds is estimated to be between 1.Oo/o and
2.75% (versus existing rates of 4.o0o/o - 5.00%), which will generate about $1.9 million of
savings over the remaining life of the bonds (equal to about $126,000 of annual savings over
the next 15 years). Put another way, the city will save $1,597,000 in today's dollars, which is
equal to 8.17o/o ol the refunded bond amount. Typically, municipal issuers set a minimum
present value savings goal equal to 3% of the refunded bond amount to determine if a
refinancing is worthwhile to pursue.
There is no increase in the repayment term of the bonds. The final maturity will remain 2031

The total "all-in" cost of issuing the new refunding bonds is $350,000, or 1.750/o, which has
already been factored into the savings statistics stated above.

Subject: Discussion of Association of Bay Area Governments-Metropolitan
Transpo rtation Commission Merger
RECOMMENDATION
ln January 2016, MTC and ABAG hired Management Partners to conduct a merger study to
examine the policy, management, financial, and legal implications associated with integration of
the two agencies' planning functions, up to and including institutional merger between MTC and
ABAG. The engagement also included the development of a merger implementation plan for any
option selected by the Joint Committee.
Exhibit:
. Councilmember Brownrigg Memo
. ABAG Memo
STAFF REPORT
Councilmember Michael Brownrigg, the City's representative to the Association of Bay Area
Governments (ABAG) has requested that the City Council discuss the proposed ABAG-
Metropolitan Commission (MTC) merger.
BACKGROUND
DISCUSSION
Councilmember Brownrigg has prepared the attached memo regarding the proposed ABAG-MTC
merger. Additional materials regarding the proposed merger can be found at the following link:

FISCAL IMPACT
None.
MEMO TO THE COUNCIL
FROM MICHAEL BROWNRIGG
SUBJECT: ABAG/MTC MERGER
Most major metropolitan districts in the country have unified planning/
transport agencies. This is true in Los Angeles, Chicago, and Washington DC.
In the Bay Area, however, the two functions grew up being managed in
separate agencies, with the Metropolitan Transit Commission (MTC),
esiablished by the t egislature and funded by the region's tolls and other cash
flows, working on regional transport, while the Association of Bay Area
Governments (ABAG), which comprises 11o local cities and county
governments, took on the planning function for the region. ABAG is funded by
member dues and by a large ($3.9 million) annual grant from MTC, a
significant chunk of a roughly $r5 mm annual budget.
This collaborative system was working reasonably well until Plan Bay Area
came along (htrp://planbayarea.org/plan-bay-area.html), which required the
two agencies to collaborate closely on future regional integrated
transport/housing planning. The process led to deep friction between the
staffs and the overseers of the respective staffs. And so, last July MTC
threatened to withhold the annual grant unless ABAG effectively ceded control
of planning to MTC (by sending the planning staff from ABAG to MTC). The
term MTC uses is "Functional consolidation". After an initial outcry from
ABAG, MTC commissioners then voted to continue funding ABAG through
July zo16, forcing ABAG to either come up with a workable path toward
merger or suffer the consequences of a hostile takeover of the planning staff.
Many observers say that without their planning function and the $3'9 mm
grant, ABAG would be rendered powerless and useless.
The two agencies commissioned a consulting group to outline
recommendations and possible solutions. That report is here:
hftD://aba e.ca.eov/medialzor merser/
While there were close to a dozen options, the consultants and the tide seems
to be moving toward one of two options: merge the staff first and worry about
governance later (Option 7) or figure out the governance at the same time as
the functional merger (Option +).
There are a large number of ABAG members who continue to try and resist
any merger at all, but that seems shortsighted to me and even ABAG staff do
not think that is a good idea.
My own recommendation at this stage is to forcefully endorse Option 4, since I
think governance is crucial in any merger, but especially when the two
cultures are so different, and that MTC culture and governance feels
fundamentally hostile to small cities - as we saw in the High Speed Rail
debate 6 years ago.
Of course, we are only one out of rro voices in terms of giving ABAG direction.
Nonetheless, this feels like a very important regional decision and I welcome
the chance to discuss the pros/cons of the different options with colleagues
before expressing an opinion on behalf of Burlingame.
I attach an article from last fall that give some more color. I will endeavor at
our meeting to describe the two or three leading options, which we can then
discuss broadly.
Barnidge: ABAG vs. MTC is a battle
you should care about
81'Tom Barnidge Contra Costa Times
The Association of Bay Area Governments and the Metropolitan Transportation
Commission are engaged in a hissing match.
I know what you're thinking: Who cares? Two bloated bureaucracies feeding at the public
trough. Here's hoping they strangle each other.
OK, government agencies are hard to love. But there's more to this story if y'ou dig a little
deeper.
This debate is over lvho rvill plan regional growth strategies in years to come. How many
housing units uill be assigned to Orinda, Martinez, Brentwood or San Ramon? How much
land must be zoned for affordably priced homes? Ultimately, rvhat rvill comprise the
sustainable communities strategy lovingly known as Plan Bay Area?
You don't think of PIan Bay Area lovingly? Tough, it's not going arvay.
The two agencies have shared responsibility for the plan until non', ABAG setting
housing policy and MTC overseeing transportation needs, but MTC Executive Director
Steve Heminger thinks things r.r'ill come together faster if MTC absorbs ABAG's planning
staff and everyone reports to him.
As he put it in a r7-page proposal: "At the risk of generalization, I think it's safe to say
MTC is more action-oriented and project-based, while ABAG is more discussion-focused
and policy-based." So do you want results or do you want to gab about them?
He also noted that ABAG depends on funding from MTC, which benefits from local
taxes, bridge tolls, and state and federal funds, and "MTC has complete discretion over
whether to continue or discontinue its financial assistance." Sounds like a threat, not so
well veiled.
There's only one reason any of this should matter to you. When Bal' Area communities
came together to create ABAG 54 years ago - all nine counties and ror cities have a say
in its operation -- it lvas to ensure they had a representative voice in their future. If MTC
supersedes ABAG, that voice diminishes.
Oh sure, ABAG does other things. It helps city planning departments, offers
environmental and cleanwater training, and administers earthquake support, estuary
presenation and Bay Trail programs, but its marquee duty is overseeing regional
grouth.
"ABAG knou's er.ery city's nuances," said Clayton Councilwoman and ABAG President
Julie Pierce. "Our planners know rvhat their general plans say, how they $ant to grow
and what things they need for support. Our culture is to reach out and n'ork r,rith cities
in a bottom-up way. MTC works top-dorrn."
ABAG had plenty of support when the "functional consolidation plan" u'as publicly aired
at an MTC meeting Wednesday. Contra Costa County Supen'isor Karen Mitchoff spoke
in opposition to the proposal. So did Moraga Torm Manager Jill Keimach and Novato
Mayor Pro Tem Pat Eklund. Hal,rvard Mayor Barbara Halliday even took a shot at
Heminger's threat to withhold ABAG funding.
"When u'e talk about money -- ABAG's money, MTC's money -- this is the public's
money," she said. "We need to be inclusive. The voices of the cities r+,ould be lost if this
goes fonrard as planned."
Pierce acknou'ledged that operations can be unwieldy when two large agencies attempt
to coordinate efforts. She said communications could be improved. And a full-blor,r.n
merger is not a bad idea, but MTC's one-department porver grab isn't the ansu'er.
"The complexities," she said, "are hou, do we merge the best of both agencies."
As hissing matches go, this one has more beneath the surface than can be seen.

ABAG Executive Board
Ezra Rapport
Executive Director
ABAG MTC Merger Study RecommendationSubject:
1. Context / Recommendation
ABAG is facing what is probably the most critical juncture in its 55 year history. ABAG has
reached a point where a decision must be made with respect to its future, and the future of
regional planning and programs in the Bay Area. The integration of ABAG and MTC into a
comprehensive regional agency might be a real possibility.
What will be before the Executive Board on May 19h is a decision to select a path forward that
has the best chance of being approved by both ABAG and MTC and best serve the public
interest. The status quo between the agencies is that MTC will terminate its Planning Grant to
ABAG on July 1 , 20,l6, unless an altemative Merger lmplementation Plan (MlP) is adopted by
both agencies. lf both agencies can agree on a path forward with sufficient detail' that
agreement would constitute a Merger lmplementation Plan (MlP), and that action would trigger
a continuation of the MTC Planning Grant to ABAG while the details of the MIP are worked out.
Our recommendation is for the Executive Board to approve two Options: Option 4 and Option 7
of the Management Partners report (see attachments A and B) with important principles for
Option 7. These principles are described below under Recommendation.
Option 4 (New Governance Model and Full Staff Merger), in ABAG staffs view, is the best
option for the Bay Area. The New Governance model should combine the best of MTC's
statutory responsibilities to program and allocate transportation dollars, while also supporting
city and county engagement in land use, economic development, environmental planning, and
other non-transportation issues facing the region. With this governance model, a powerful
regional agency with a broad scope of responsibility can be created utilizing combined
administrative resources.
While we see a change in governance as crucial to the long term mission of regional planning'
we are convinced that the ABAG and MTC boards cannot address governance in the time frame
needed to sustain ABAG. As stated above, MTC's Planning Grant to ABAG expires July 1,
2016, unless MTC and ABAG both adopt an alternative Merger lmplementation Plan (MlP).
With the assumption that the dialogue for changes in governance will take more time than is
available to address the present situation, all options that require an immediate commitment to a
ABAG
Date:

From:
ABAG MTC Merger Study Recommendation

Page 2
change in governance are fatally flawed if this change cannot be agreed upon by both ABAG
and MTC by July 1 , 2016.
ln addition to our recommendation of Option 4, staff also recommends the alternative approval
of Option 7, if that is the only option that MTC will approve. Option 7 retains the ABAG Board
and its institutional policy authority, but proposes to transfer ABAG staff to MTC following
development of a contract for services and entering into an MOU to establish a timeframe for
considering a new governance structure and setting forth principles, goals and parameters for
considering new governance options. ln addition, Option 7 calls for an MOU on the parameters
of a new governance model to be considered within a reasonable time.
The deficiency of Option 7 is that it splits administrative control away from ABAG governance.
While there is an advantage to havlng unified administration, the successful implementation of
Option 7 will require the MTC administration to be sensitive to ABAG staff, programs, and
relationships to all levels of government and stakeholders. ABAG'S programs are financially
self-sufficient for the foreseeable future, but these programs require an administrative control
that is very different from the exigencies of MTC administration. There needs to be a strong
commitment on the part of MTC administration to both protect ABAG's Council of Governments
(COG) role and to fairly evaluate the programs maintained by current ABAG staff.
We understand that MTC administration needs to protect MTC from financial liabilities. At the
same time, ABAG programs should be carefully evaluated prior to making any significant
changes so that ABAG membership remains supportive of this effort. ABAG's governance and
administrative model has taken decades to construct, but may disintegrate rapidly without
careful consideration of any changes proposed by MTC administration.
The ABAG staff transfer to MTC should be accompanied by a set of principles to guide Option 7
and proposed principles have been enumerated in Section I of this report. These principles
should be attached to ABAG's resolution of approval. The principles should help guide the
ABAG negotiations between ABAG and MTC for an MOU that defines roles and responsibilities
and the contract for services between ABAG and MTC.
ABAG and MTC should also consider engaging in facilitated discussions regarding new
governance models during the next two years. ABAG and MTC should analyze a set of options
for new governance with the intent of choosing an option that integrates the functional
responsibilities of both the Metropolitan Planning Organization (MPO) and the COG' and
provides the best possible regional agency for the Bay Area to accomplish comprehensive
planning, programming, and implementation of projects that will serve the 21st century.
2. Governance and Staffino
Option 7 does not address all problems. Option 7 cannot be implemented without an extensive
work program to transition ABAG employees and ABAG programs to MTC administration. A
second major consideration is how to define what is meant by ABAG autonomy' policy
oversight, and regional responsibility, which is mentioned in Management Partners' report. The
MOU should also set, at a minimum, a reasonable time frame for new governance options to be
evaluated by MTC and ABAG.
ABAG MTC Merger Study Recommendation
May 6, 2016
Page 3
Given the need to reach consensus among ABAG and MTC, however, we view only Option 7 as
feasible, with principles enumerated in this memo and others that may be attached by the
Executive Board. Option 7 needs to be made realistic in both the short term and long term_ The
two agencies need to choose a single option in order to focus on the necessary details.
3. Reqional Planninq Opportunitv
Despite the challenges, we believe that the potential reorganization of ABAG and MTC into a
single agency represents an extraordinary opportunity to create an innovative regional
governance function that combines the best of ABAG and MTC. Together, these agencies
contain an unparalleled expertise to deliver improved planning, policy, and funding support to
the Bay Area. Working as a combined staff, both agencies would be able to provide responsive,
locally-tailored services that improve the lives of current and future Bay Area residents, in a
variety of economic, social, and environmental contexts.
We do not want to lose sight of this opportunity. A great deal of effort has been expended
discussing lhe issues of regional governance and the required process of collaboration across
the Bay Area's diverse communities. While there is much more to be done, the Bay Area
deserves the most effective organization for regional planning and implementation of critical
programs. The Bay Area is becoming increasingly complex as its economy grows. There are
enormous transportation, housing and environmental challenges ahead, including affordable
housing, water supply, and sea level rise, and there is an urgent need for an integrated,
comprehensive regional planning and implementation institution.
Management Partneds option 7 states that ABAG "retains autonomy and policy oversight over
current statutory roles and responsibilities." This direction will require more than verbai
assurances that policy making responsibilities will be respected. ln order for the ABAG
Executive Board to retain autonomy and policy oversight, there must be a strong connection to
the staff charged with implementing those statutory roles and responsibilities. The Executive
Board should be able to assert policy prerogatives through the work plan and contract for
services it negotiates with MTC. Staff should be available to listen, interpret, and implement
policy direction from the ABAG Executive Board, or its successor.
ABAG's ability to carry out its statutory roles and responsibilities also relies on its relationship to
Iocal govemments. The connection between ABAG and local governments is structured through
the Executive Board and the role of city and county delegates for each jurisdiction. The ABAG
delegates represent city councils, who in turn, are a connection to the city Managers and local
government staff, especially land use planners. Through this mechanism, ABAG maintains a
solid relationship with local government. This channel of communication and collaboration
needs to remain af cities and counties are to consider the new arrangement to be a continuation
of the Council of Governments.
4. Council Governments E ntial Role
The following are essential activities that define a Council of Governments, and we believe they
need to be maintained at least until new governance options are implemented:
A. Strong Local Partners: Cities and counties must be essential partners in the
emerging regional planning and services structure. Sustained trust and

accountability to local governments will be a foundational dimension of this new
regional agency and retain membership dues in place.
Work Program approved by Executive Board: The approval of the work program
by the Executive Board, prioritizes regional challenges and slrategies, and provides
direct guidance on land use, housing, economic development, and environmental
policies and strategies. The Executive Board will need to provide direction on major
regional strategies such as Priority Development Areas, resilience strategies or
Regional Housing Needs Allocation.
lnvolvement of Regional Planning Committee or similar body: The ABAG's
Regional Planning Committee, or similar committee that includes elected officials
and major stakeholders, should continue to advise staff on major planning projects
such as the designation of an Economic Development District, coordination of water
conservation strategies or the creation of a Regional Housing Trust Fund.
Planning Staff: An integrated planning function will need to continue to engage with
local jurisdictions. ABAG staff takes input on housing, economic development and
infrastructure needs and provides support on land use analysis, policy analysis, best
practices and public engagement. Public workshops and communication through
social media are essential components of any regional planning process to secure
transparency and broader public input.
Public Engagement: Meaningful and transparent public engagement processes
should continue to be used to develop strategies to support housing production and
affordability, regional sustainability, economic prosperity, resilience and climate
adaptation among others that are supported by a strong network of stakeholders.
Stakeholder involvement; The on-going roles that environmental, business
community and equity stakeholders play are extremely important and need to
continue.
a. Environmental stakeholders will maintain an important role in the preservation of
open space, access to parks, and healthy places.
b. The business community will promote ongoing and new economic development
strategies and strengthen collaboration across sub regions.c. Equity stakeholders broaden the agencies' participation to ensure disadvantaged
communities have a voice in regional strategies and investment decisions.
Current Programs: ABAG's programs of flnancial services, energy savings,
insurance pools, and the healthy restoration of the bay and estuary should be
carefully evaluated. ABAG believes these are core services to local jurisdictions and
the communities in the Bay Area, and a major reason localjurisdictions pay dues to
ABAG.

ABAG MTC Merger Study Recommendation

5. Solid ABAG Financial Performance
Staff would like to impress upon MTC and our stakeholders the strength of ABAG's finances
and operations to date. This information will be helpful to those looking to understand how
ABAG's finances are structured and how to maintain financial performance through a solid
merger implementation plan.
A. ABAG has consistently operated with a balanced budget, and has not experienced an
operating deficit within the last five years (our analysis only looked back five years).
B. ABAG executes a sustainable business model.
1 ) Member dues pay for agency management, member services and strategic
organizational planning.
2) All grant funded projects are programmed to be operated within the funding
provided. Expenditures are closely monitored to ensure the ability to restructure
the poect budget to avoid a deficit. When grants terminate, grant funded
positions are reduced.
3) ABAG administration and finance provide management, administrative and other
support services to ABAG, our entities, and related parties. Both direct and
indirect fees are charged to fully recover the administrative cost.
C. All ABAG entities operate with balanced budgets and both the Financial Authority for
Non-Profit Corporations (FAN) and Pooled Liability Assurance Network (pLAN) have
very healthy reserve funds ranging from $3-20 million. POWER distributes all surpluses
(deficits) to its members.
D. ABAG contributes a successful and reputable business model that is not duplicative of
the services MTC currently provides. ABAG's programs are a strategac fit within the
larger ABAG mission and its services are relied upon by critical stakeholders both
regionally and locally.
1 ) ABAG successfully represents 109 cities and coun es as demonstrated by 10Ovo
member dues collection.
2) ABAG has a positive reputation in the Federal, State and Regional Community
for our extensive research, planning, land use, housing, equity, environmental,
resilience, and economic issues as demonstrated in the growth of our budget in
the last year from $26 to 958 million.t
1 For example, ABAG administers the Bay Area Regional Energy Network (BayRen) program which is
funded by a grant from the CA Public Utilities Commission and the lntegrated Regional Water
Management Program (IRWMP)funding through the California Department of Water Resources and
managed by ABAG's San Francisco Estuary Partnership (SFEP). BayRen is the exclusive implementer
ofthe Energy Upgrade Califomia Home Upgrade Program designed to reduce energy use in existing
homes by providing incentives to homeowners who make energy-efficient improvements. SFEp helped
secure an additional $41 million in state grant funds and now manages for our partners a total of g93
million for these multi-benefit water quality and drought response projects. ln Fy2o 16- 17 alone, BayRen
will be responsible for administering $12.8 in state grants out of ABAG'S total state funding of $42.7
milljon. ln FY2016-17 alone SFEP will be responsible for administering $24.5 million in local, state, and
federal funding for projects throughout the Bay Area. These are great examples of the magnitude and
impact created through our local, state, and federal grant funds.

E. ABAG's costs, unfunded pension liabilities and OPEB costs are all included in our
employee direct cost rate and our indirect cost rate (see Attachment A). While our SFEP
programs/grants are not charged for indirect cost since they are located with the
Regional Water Quality Control Board in the State Building, ABAG amortizes the
pension and OPEB liabilities through their direct charges to the grantors.
F. The ABAG condominium unit and tenant improvements should be considered as part of
the value ABAG brings to the merger.
6. Process Towards Full lnteqration
It will be essential that there is a strong commitment on a governance remnfiguration so that the
relationship between regional governance and city and county participation is clear and
decisive. Addressing regional governance is not only about SB 375. The Bay Area faces
numerous environmental, economic, social and public health issues in the 21stcentury.
A new governance model does not have to disturb the MTC composition and balance of power,
which is set forth in statute. ABAG staff supports the existing MTC Commission maintaining
control over the funding of transportation networks and projects. However, the issues outside of
transportation programming and allocations, such as Plan Bay Area, should have representation
that reflects the larger number of cities that need to respond to future Bay Area issues. For
example, this greater representation could be accomplished through a newly configured limited
authority Governing Board, who would work with the administrative structure and the ABAG and
MTC policy boards to decide, for example, the scope of the Regional Plan, issue the State of
the Region report, perform an evaluation as to how well the regional agency was accomplishing
its mission, and ensure that the planning budget was reasonably allocated to the tasks at hand.
ABAG's Board, staff and member jurisdictions are looking for assurances that options to
address a new governance structure will be canied out in an orderly and thoughtful manner.
is essential, in our opinion, to establish a date certain by when governance options will be
presented to the MTC Commission and ABAG Executive Board. The MOU should set forth a
specific schedule that addresses this objective.
It
While ABAG believes that staff merger ahead of the new governance model is an overly
complicated and risky solution, we acknowledge that Option 7 is feasible, but requires
substantial work prior to implementation if this option is selected. The merger of ABAG staff into
the MTC should be handled expertly with outside consulting support assisting both agencies.
ABAG currently retains a mission driven staff. They will need assurances that they will be able
to accomplish ABAG's regional planning goals under the MTC administrative organization.
Prior to any staff merger, significant due diligence on the part of MTC regarding ABAG'S assets
and liabilities needs to be undertaken so the MTC statf can make further recommendations to
the Commission. Likewise, ABAG should be expected to identify concrete actions that will allow
for a transition of ABAG staff to MTC administrative control, while maintaining business
continuity of the enterprise groups, continued grant activity for the San Francisco Estuary
Partnership, the Resilience, and Energy programs, as well as necessary assurances for the
continuity of ABAG'S policy function as a Council of Governments. ABAG members must have

Management Partners is preparing a draft implementation action plan that sets forth steps that
comprise a new Merger lmplementation (MlP) for ABAG and MTC. The schedule results in a
negotiated MOU and Contract for Services. At the conclusion of the negotiated documents,
both ABAG and MTC will have to approve the contract for service and MOU prior to full
implementation.
The technical challenges and strategies to facilitate a staff merger should be discussed in
another memo, and these details should be addressed by a team of consultants, including
organizational development consultants and consultants with human resource technical
expertise. This should include thoughtful engagement with staff and employee representatives.
8. Recommendation to Executive Board
Our recommendation to the Executive Board is to first approve Option 4 (Full Merger) and then
Option 7 (Staff Merger with Governance Model later) of the Management partners report with
important attached principles. ln addition to our recommendation of Option 4, staff recommends
the alternative approval of Option 7 if that is the only option that MTC will approve. Option 7
retains the ABAG Board and its institutionat policy authority, brrt transfers the ABAG staff
administration to MTC. lt also calls for a new govemance model to be considered within a
reasonable time. lmportant principles (see below) attached to the approval of Option 7 will
make the difference in achieving the most important goals ABAG staff identified in its merger
analysis, namely, (1) the continued participation of cities and counties as the dominant political
structure underlying comprehensive regional planning, (2) the financial security of the ABAG
institution and its past and present employees, and (3) a reconfiguration of regional governance
to ensure broader city and county and stakeholder participation.
9. Principles and Lan quaoe for the Resolution Sup portinq Option 7
Staff recommends that if the Executive Board is going to support both Option 4 and Option 7,
then principles applicable to Option 7 need to be appended to the resolution, as follows:
A. The Council of Governments (COG) provides local jurisdictions with the staff support,
resources and partnerships necessary for them to have significant input in developing
and implementing regional plans such as Plan Bay Area. The COG operates with the
clear understanding that all land use authority in Califomia resides with cities and
counties. Support for Option 7 is conditioned on the continuation of local engagement
and participation in regional planning in the following manner:
1) Cities and counties are essential partners in regional planning.
2) Regional planning incorporates a meaningful and transparent public engagement
process.
3) Regional land use planning is responsive to local land use planning to build high
quality neighborhoods.
4) ln addition to transit and transportation planning, regional land use planning
integrates other relevant planning fields, such as water, agriculture and open
faith in these assurances for local governments to continue paying dues to support ABAG as a
continuing Council of Governments.
ABAG MTC Merger Study Recommendation

space, resilience, energy efficiency, climate change adaptation and mitigation, air
quality, sea level rise, economic development, and social equity.
B. The COG should have a voice in developing land use incentives designed to promote
the construction of and acquisition/rehabilitation of housing units scaled to support the
Bay Area economy.
C. When integrating the ABAG Planning and Research Department, special aftenlion
should be made to retain its collaborative and holistic culture.
D. ln concert with any organizational changes, ABAG and MTC staff should engage in a
deliberate process for integrating missions that address: 1) the function, management,
mission, and vision of ABAG departments; 2) internal and external relationship
maintenance; 3) decision-making structures; and 4) conflict resolution.
E. ABAG and MTC should designate a Staff Merger committee of Board and Commission
members that will provide guidance with respect to merger activities and changes. This
committee should be informed by an organizational consultant familiar with the
overlapping areas of ABAG and MTC administration. We do not believe amportant
decisions need to be made immediately, and it would be helpful for a committee of
elected officials to be in place for any discussion of issues among the staff.F. MTC administration should endeavor to understand and preserve ABAG's existing
programs. Should MTC administration desire to make substantive changes, they must
first consult with the ABAG Executive Board.
G. The staff merger should include the transition of all ABAG staff. Savings and
consolidation should take place through existing vacant positions, expected attrition
opportunities in further reorganization, and through an organizational development plan
approved by both ABAG and MTC.
H. The ABAG Executive Board will need a management level staff person to act as a
liaison to the new administration. The ABAG Board and the Executive Director of MTC
should engage in a mutual process for the selection and retention of this liaison. The
mechanism to accomplish this should be worked out as part of the MlP. This position
will ensure that the ABAG Executive Board has an appropriate connection to staff so it
can perform its policy oversight with autonomy.
10. Action Requested ofthe Executive Board
The resolution the ABAG Executive Board would be asked to approve to start us down a path
toward Option 4 or Option 7 would express general support for the chosen Option and direct
staff to:
A. Conduct a financial and legal analysis to determine the impact on both ABAG and MTC
of a staff consolidation.
B. Enter into negotiations and establish a deadline for:
A. A multi-year Contract for Services that would consolidate ABAG and MTC staff
under one executive director and provide staffing for all statutory duties,
responsibilities and programs of the region's COG.
B. An MOU to pursue new governance options within a specified time period.
C. Enter into a letter agreement whereby MTC continues to provide funding support to
ABAG for regional planning services pending the development and execution of the
Contract for Services and the MOU on new govemance options described above.

Attachment A:
Unfunded Pension Liabilities and OPEB
ABAG's $12 million unfunded pension liability is not unique to ABAG and not an indication of
poor fiscal management. The unfunded pension liability arose from CaIPERS' failure to
recommend adequate funding contributions for several years. As a result, ABAG is in concert
with most PERS plans in having unfunded liabilities that are being amo(ized over periods of six
to 20 years. The ABAG unfunded liability is 34. t % of the plan's total accrued liability, which
compares to MIC's 23.4o/o unfunded liability, as a percentage total accrued liability.
Until fiscal year (FY) 2015-16, the amortization of the unfunded pension liability was computed
as a percentage of estimated payroll, and the dollar amount would rise or fall proportionately
with increases and decreases in payroll costs. Beginning in FY 2015-16, amortization is set at a
dollar amount, which for FY 2015-16 is $1,085,876. This payment is billed to ABAG monthly as
a fixed amount of $90,490. ABAG's pension amortization is scheduled to rise approximately
$700,000 over the next six years, which will cause ABAG to re-evaluate its charges to grantors
and enterprises.
ABAG has an Actuarial Accrued Liability for its Retiree Healthcare Plan of $4.7 million, which is
being amortized as part of ABAG's annual payroll expense of $7 million at approximately
$700,000 a year. This level is sufficient to fund current expenses and to provide reserves for
future claims. lt is projected that the plan will be fully funded by 2022. As with many of these
plans, the escalation of medical cost made ABAG's plan a financial burden and new enrollment
to the original plan was terminated in FY2009-10. We anticipate a decrease in ARC with our
upcoming actuarial evaluation due to a smaller employee pool than previously reported.
ABAG's unrestricted fund balance shows a $8 million deficit. While at is technically true that
ABAG'S Balance Sheet reflects a deficit fund balance, the financial health of ABAG has not
changed, and if ABAG is allowed to continue to operate at its current level, the liability will be
eliminated over time.

Option 4 - Create a New Regional Agency and Governance
Model
Description
Enter into a memorandum of understanding (MOU) between MTC and ABAG to create a new
govemance model that integrates the MPO (MTC) and the COG (ABAG). The MOU would set
forth the principles, parameters and basic terms to guide the creation of a new regional agency
and govemance model for the region. Until a new agency is created and integration achieved
MTC and ABAG would remain as separate, independent agencies, including their respective
missiory governance structures, legal and statutory duties, responsibilities and authorities.
ABAG would statutorily continue to be responsible for those activities set forth in SB 375
regarding preparation of the SCS. Figure 9 on the following page provides a graphic depiction

and proposed stalfing plan, state legislation would be required to transfer the current statutory
duties and responsibilities of MTC and ABAG to the new agency. Both ABAG and MTC have
ancillary JPAs staffed by their respective agency Personnel, which would have to enter into new
contracts with a new agency for the same purpose iI they wish to remain alfiliated with the
successor aSency.
Other authorities such as the Bay Area Toll Authority (BATA) have significant authorities,
duties and responsibilities as well as Iiduciary obligations that would have to be examined
carefully to ensure the process would not impact operational commitments during the next
several years. Financing authorities as well as bond documents would also have to be reviewed
to determine whether there are any significant obstacles to a successor agency.
Financial
If MTC and ABAG choose an option that involves creating a new agency, a more in-depth
financial assessment will be required. Such an assessment would need to include a detailed
analysis of each agency's existing financial liabilities and their future impact on the finances of a
newly created agency. The highJevel assessment (base assumptions) in this report is based on
our experience with other mergers. Under a new regional agency, it is assumed there would be
a net reduction of one executive director position in addition to one less planning director at a
minimum.
Given the overall merger of staff, we believe it is reasonable to expect at least a 107" overall
reduction in remaining overhead costs, which is likely conservative. Efficiencies and economies
of scale typically result in greater cost savings. The overall impact for both agencies is therefore
projected at a $2.6 million in net annual savings, as indicated in Table 7. There would be one-
time recruiting costs of $8O000 {or the new executive director and planning director positions,
and one-time implementation costs (legal and consulting) of at least $50O000. This oPtion
assumes that Resolution 4210 is replaced by adequate funding to avoid adverse fiscal impacts
on ABAG during the period of negotiation and implementation of the new organizafion

Management
Until such time as a new regional agency is created, the current management, performance and
accountability issues associated with preparation of the SCS and PBA would likely continue
until and unless shared agreements reset how the agencies currently work together on regional
planning programs and services.
A new regional agency would result in a completely consolidated regional planning
organization (along with other progr;uns, operations and services) under a single management
and leadership structure. This would result in clear and consistent direction to staff and
transparenry to the governing body or bodies and the public about who is responsible for
implementing the region's vision. It would also present significant oPPortunity for the agency's
management and leadership to integrate both agencies into a cohesive, efficient and well-
functioning organization with a shared mission, vision and values.
Existing Employees
Representatbn Siarus - In a new agency, the first determination to be made would be whether to
offer positions to existing employees in the two agencies or to fill positions through an open
recruitment process. This decision would be made as part of the process to establish the new
agency and would be done under collective bargaining rules and in consultation with existing
employee groups. A bargaining unit in the new agenry would be unrepresented until such time
as a majority of all employees in the unit elected to be represented by one or more unions. For
the bargaining unit to become represented employees would first need to present evidence of
the desire to be represented through a card check process or by signing petitions. Typically
administered by the state, such an election would result in all of the employees in the agency
being represented by a union if 50% plus one of the employees in the unit voted affirmatively
for such an affiliation.
Compensation - Compensation levels would be established as part of a meet and confer process
under state law with the employees of the new agency. If they were set at the current MTC
level, former ABAG stalf may see an increase in compensation depending on the position.
Benefts -Benelits would be established as part of a meet and confer process under state law
with employees of the new agency. They could be set to mirror the current MTC benefits, the
current ABAG benefits, or a different set of benefits.
Retirement Plan
The retirement plan would be established as part of a meet and confer process within
the options available through CaIPERS. Both agencies currently have a 2.5% @ 55 plan
for "Classic" employees and the required 2'/o @ 62 plan for new plan employees. The
current MTC retirement plan includes a survivor benefit while the ABAG plan does not
The current MTC plan includes a 37" annual COLA white the ABAG plan includes a 2"/o
COLA. Either of these options could be selected by the new agency. The current rate
paid by MTC includes these options and, if both were selected, the contribution rate
))
Options Analysis and Recommendation Report
Options Analysis Management Partners
would likely be set at the current MTC rate (although this would need to be confirmed
with CaIPERS for a new agency).
The employee conkibution for Classic employees would be established as part of a meet
and confer process under state law. New plan employees are required to pay the full
employee contribution rate setby PERS. Currently, ABAG employees pay a 1olo
retirement contribution with this amount increasin g to 2o/o and 3o/" over the next two
years. Classic MTC employees pay a 5.73% retirement contribution, increasing to 87o
over the next several years (depending on employer share increases each year). ABAG's
new plan members pay the full 6.25% contribution rate and MTC's new plan employees
pay the fuII6.5% contribution rate. The difference in contribution rate is due to the
indusion of a survivor benefit and a higher COLA in the MTC plan.
Retiree health benefits would be established as part of the collective bargaining process
between the employees and the new agenry. They could be set to mirror the current
MTC benefits, the current ABAG benefits, or a combination of the two. Employees that
have already retired would see no change to their retiree health benefits if the new
agency were able to assume the ongoing cost.
A decision to include or exclude employees from Social Security would be made as part
of the meet and confer process under state law. Currently, ABAG employees are covered
under Social Security while MTC employees are not. ABAG employees have a payroll
deduction for Social Security contributions while MTC employees do not.
Policy
A new agenry and govemance model presents an oPPortunity to integrate the two agencies
responsible for regional land use and hansPortation planning and associated services and
programs into a transparent and more accountable policy structure. It would also provide an
opportunity to establish a clear vision for the region. Duplicate committees addressing similar
issues could be eliminated, which would also mean a much more efficient use of elected
officials' time.
Alternative governance models provide a range of options to meet the interests of the region's
local govemments and stakeholders, including multiple govemance structures responsible for
different missions of the new agency, e.g., the MPO or transportation, the COG, and
administration (executive board) within an overarching policy body. Vofing structures among
the governing bodies can be weighted in accordance with various factors, including populatiory
or by certain categodes.
A. Operational Effectiveness and Accountability
Creation of a new regional agenry should provide for clear staff roles and responsibilities for
Plan Bay Area. However, it will take a minimum of a year (likely more) to establish and
additional time to implement this option, and therefore it will have little impact on the PBA
2017 process which is likely to be nearing conclusion or be completed by the time a new agency
can be operational. For this option, we assume a new funding frameworkwould be
56
Options Analysis and Recommendation Report
Options Analysis Managemeni Partners
implemented and the respective roles for ABAG and MTC in regard to PBA would continue
until a new agency is created. As discussed under Option 1, while some modest incremental
improvements could be made for the current PBA 2017 process in comparison with the PBA
2013 process through improved coordination and a dispute resolution procesq many of the
same issues of operational effectiveness and accountability are likely to remain until a new
agency is created.
This option would result in the integration of land use and transportation planning programs
and services under one unified agency. A new, integrated and unified agency under one
management and leadership structure would clarily and streamline staff roles and
responsibilities and improve accountability. A single integrated agency should also provide
increased career opportunities for staff within a larger agency'
B. Transparency in Policy Decision Making
In the near term this option is unlikely to address concems with the roles and responsibilities
for PBA 2017. The fundamental problems associated with having two agencies with
overlapping responsibilities for the same plan will not be resolved until a new agency is
created. Once a new agency is created, there should be significant imProvements in
strearnlining the process, both for staff and for elected officials. A new committee structule
would likely be created, allowing for less overlap in responsibility and fewer overall meetings.
The PBA process would go through one agenry rather than two, allowing for stakeholders to
befter follow and engage in the Process.
whether PBA will be seen as the product of "representative decision making" will largely
depend on the structure of the goveming body or bodies. In any regional agency smaller
luiisdictions want their interests and unique circumstances to be respected and their concems
understood. The interests of the more populous cities and counties are that programs and
funding serve locations with the majority of the population of the region. These two interests
must be addressed and balanced in any new govemance skucture'
A single agency serving the region will be able to tackle some of the issues facing the region in a
more holistic and comprehensive manner, including new issues as they arise' The
administrative and other savings that can be expected by combining two agencies into a single
agenry could be used to support new poliry initiatives.
C. Core Service Delivery and Financial Sustainability
Option 4 assumes the continuation of the 2014 Funding Framework until a new agency is
crlated. We estimate that a new agency would lead to annual savings of $2.6 million after an
estimated one-time cost of at least $500,000 to create it.
Both organizations are much more than planning agenciet and provide a range of services in
addition to their role in preparing and implementing PBA. ABAG',s programs include the
Estuary Projec! its insurance pool, and assisting local govemments with resilience and
emergency planning. These services are valued by its member agencies. In addition to its role in
57
Options Analysis and Recommendation Report
Options Anatysis Management Partners
manaSing and distributing transportation funds, MTC (including its associated agencies such as
the Bay Area Toll Authority) has significant programmatic responsibilities, including the 511
system, oversight ofbridge operations and maintenance, and the Clipper Card system.
MTC is somewhat unusual among MPOs we examined in the amount of local and state funding
it manages in addition to federal funds, and the degree to which it has operational
responsibilities; however, it is not unique. The San Diego Association of Govemments
(SANDAG) has operational and capital improvement responsibilities and approximately as
large an overall budget as MTC. Large local govemments in the Bay Area also manage
comparable budgets and operations, and provide an even larger range of operations and
programs than MTC, including significant land use, capital improvement, planning and policy
responsibilities.
While unifying two agencies into a single agenry will present challenges, we have not identified
any overt operational obstacles (pending legal review) to that unification. Existing MTC
operations and programs should transition to a successor agency relatively seamlessly (pending
legal review) with little operational impact. With a comparatively secure financial foundation
and significant savings from agenry unificatio& the new agenry should be able to maintain and
expand core service programs, and provide adequate administrative support for programs and
services.
A new agency provides an opportunity for a more integrated, consistent and comprehensive
approach to all regional programs and services, including implementation of PBA. Assurning a
continuation o{ current grantt service programs and dues revenue, with less duplication and
more cost-effective agenry administration, the new agenry would have additional resources to
broaden its mission. This would allow it to become a partner with local govemments in several
areas in addition to implementing PBA, including assisting local govemments and stakeholders
in addressing other issues of significant regional concerry such as housing policies and
resilience.
D. lmplementation Viability
Creating a new regional agency will require legislation at the state level. It will also require
approval from the MTC and ABAG goveming bodies as well as associated fPAs and other
authorities. The complexity of this process has not been examined in depth, but we believe it to
be one that will take some time.
The major challenge in implementing this option will be reaching agreement among the many
interests and stakeholders on a new Sovernance structure that strikes the appropriate balance
between their various interests. A new agenry also provides a different opportunity for
employee representation in the collective bargaining process to be determined'
Once created, a single larger, organization with secure and stable financial resources is more
likely to be able to recruit and retain qualified staff. With a strong financial foundation, the new
agency should be able to maintain benefits for current and future retirees, although this has not
be assessed. This option would implement the strong stakeholder interest in a having a unified

Option 7 - Enter into a Contract between ABAG and MTC to
Consolidate Staff Functions under One Executive Director and
Enter into an MOU to Pursue New Governance Options (Full
Functiona! Consolidation)
Description
Enter into a contract between ABAG and MTC to provide staffing for all ABAG statutory duties
and responsibilities, a work program, functions agreed to be transitioned, as well as the role of
the executive director with respect to the ABAG policy body. Enter into a memorandum of
understanding (MOU) between MTC and ABAG to establish a timeframe for considering a new
govemance structure and to set forth principleq goals and parameters for pursuing new
govemance options. The ABAG fPA and MTC govemance structures, as well as their statutory
roles and responsibilities, would remain unchanged.
Within a timeframe agreed upon, evaluate the existing governance structure for efficiencp
effectiveness and transparency and decide whether to create anew regional govemance model.
The ABAG and MTC govemance structures and consolidated agency would remain in place as
well as their statutory authorities, duties and responsibilities until and unless a new regional
agency and/or governance structure is agreed upon and implemented. Figure 15 on the
following page provides a graphic depiction of this option.

Legal
MTC would become the legal counsel for the ABAG fPA as well as its enterprise functions and
other fPAs to the extent the latter authorities agree to the transition. ABAG staff provides
support to four IPAs, which would have to enter into new contracts with MTC for the same
purpose. ABAG financing authorities as well as bond documents would also have to be
reviewed to determine actions which might have to be taken to respond to any obstacles or
Iiabilities if MTC assumes oversight in these areas.

Options Analysis and Recommendation Report
Options Analysis Management Partners
Should a new govemance model be agreed on, legislative action by ABAG and MTC as well as
state legislation would likely be required to transition to a new model.
Financial
If this option is pursued, a more in-depth financial assessment will be required. Such an
assessment would need to include a detailed analysis of each agenry's eisting financial
liabilities and their future impact on the finances of MTC, or if pursued, a newly created agency
The outcome of this option in terms of organizational savings is the same as Options 4 and 6:
there would be a net reduction of one executive director and one director of Plannin& and
given the merger of staffs, it would be reasonable to exPect a 10% overall reduction in
remaining overhead costs. The overall impact for both agencies is therefore projected at a $2.6
million net annual savings, as indicated in Table 10. In additioru it is estimated there would be
one-time recruiting costs of $80,000, and one-time implementation costs (legal and consulting)
of $500,000. This option assumes that Resolution t1210 is replaced by adequate funding to avoid
adverse fiscal impacts on ABAG during the period of contract negotiation.
Table 10. Estimated Financial lmpact of Option 7
Management
Consolidating the ABAG and MTC staff would result in a more comprehensive regional
plaming organization under a single management and leadership structure. This would result
in efficiencies, cost savings and more effective use of stalf resources including streamlining the
preparation of PBA. Under contract to ABAG, the combined staff will be assurning suPPort to
all of ABAG's poliry bodies, duties and responsibilities. MTC will need to adjust its
organizational structure to accommodate ABAG functions and services. Following an analysis
of the duties and responsibilities of ABAG staff, some positions may also no longer be required
when the functions are consolidated in MTC.
ABAG's commitment to providing assistance to its member agencies in a number of areas will
also need to be supported and continued in the new framework. Nonetheless, the consolidation

STAFF REPORT MEETING DATE: May 16,2016
To:Financing Authority Board of Directors
Date: May 16,20'16
From: Carol Augustine, Finance Director - (650) 558-7222
Adoption of a Resolution of the Burlingame Financing Authority Approving
the lssuance of Not to Exceed $19,500,000 Aggregate Principal Amount of
Water and Wastewater Revenue Refunding Bonds to Refund Burlingame
Financing Authority Water and Wastewater Revenue Bonds Series 2007;
Authorizing the Execution and Delivery of lnstallment Sale Agreements and
a Bond Purchase Contract; Approving the Form of the Official Statement;
and Authorizing Execution of Documents and the Taking of All Necessary
Actions Relating to the Financing
Staff recommends that the Financing Authority Board of Directors adopt the Resolution
approving all actions relating to refinance the 2007 Water and Wastewater Revenue Bonds.
On April 26, 2007, the City (via the Burlingame Financing Authority) issued $25.18 million of
Water and Wastewater Revenue Bonds, Series 2007 (2007 Bonds"). The 2007 Bonds
financed various capital improvements to the City's Water System and Wastewater System.
Pursuant to the 2007 Water lnstallment and Wastewater lnstallment Sale Agreements, the City
makes debt service payments secured by revenues from the water and wastewater enterprise
systems.
The 2007 Bonds are currently outstanding in the amount of $19,525,000, with interest rates
ranging from 4.00/o to 5.0o/o. The remaining principal currently matures lrom 2017 to 2031. The
2007 Bonds can be prepaid beginning April 1,2017 at a call price of 100% (no prepayment
penalty).
Municipal interesl rates continue to be at historically low levels. The Federal Reserve supported
the current low interest rate environment by continuing to use economic policies (e.9.
"quantitative easing") to keep interest rates low through 2015. Despite an increase in shortterm
rates adopted in December 2015, slowing global growth trends and oil market volatility have
supported a continued low interest rate environment. ln addition, investors remain drawn to the
safety of municipal bonds. The higher level of investment in these instruments has put upward
pressure on demand. Based on the existing favorable interest rate environment and potential

BACKGROUND
DISCUSSION
Water and Wastewaler Revenue Refunding Bonds 2016 - Financing Authority May 16, 2016
for future volatility in the municipal market, it is prudent to place the City in position to refinance
the 2007 Bonds for significant savings.
Based on current interest rates, refinancing the 2007 Bonds can save the City about $'1.9 million
of savings over the remaining life of the bonds (equal to approximately $126,000 of annual
savings over the next 15 years). Put another way, the City will save $1,597,000 in today's
dollars, which is equal to 8.17% of the refunded bond amount. Typically, municipal issuers set a
minimum present value savings goal equal to 3% of the refunded bond amount to determine if a
refinancing is worthwhile to pursue.
The 2007 Bonds currently have an "AA+" rating from Standard & Poor's. lt is expected that the
upcoming 2016 Refunding Bonds will receive the same rating based on the strong credit
characteristics of the City and its enterprise systems. This strong rating will enable the City's
bonds to garner better interest rates from investors relative to other bonds that are currently
being sold in the municipal market.
Depending on market conditions, the Bonds are scheduled to be sold in mid-June 2016 and are
expected lo close in early July 2016. The City will have the ability to modify this schedule based
on the state of the municipal market and expected savings. The proceeds will be deposited in
an escrow fund and invested in U.S. Treasury securities until the prepayment date. These
proceeds will be sufficient to prepay the outstanding 2007 Bonds on April I , 20'17.
Orrick, Herrington & Sutcliffe LLP will serve as Bond Counsel. Stifel Nicolaus will serve as
Underwriter for the bonds, which will be sold on a negotiated basis. Public Financial
Management (PFM) will serve as Financial Advisor for this transaction.
Copies of the Resolutions, Water lnstallment Sale Agreement, Wastewater lnstallment Sale
Agreement, Bond Trust Agreement, Escrow Agreement, Preliminary Official Statement and
Bond Purchase Agreement are available for public inspection at the Otfice of the City Clerk.
Electronic copies are also available for e-mail to Council members as well as interested
members of the public by contacting the City Clerk. The blanks in the Preliminary Official
Statement and Bond Purchase Agreement are intentional and will be filled in once the issuance
moves forward and the bond sale is completed.
The average interest rate on the new refunding bonds is estimated to be between 1.0o/o and
2.75% (versus existing rates o'f 4.00o/o - 5.00%), which will generate about $1.9 million of
savings over the remaining life of the bonds (equal to about $126,000 of annual savings over
the next '15 years). Put another way, the City will save $1,597,000 in today's dollars, which is
equal to 8.17o/o of the refunded bond amount. Typically, municipal issuers set a minimum
presenl value savings goal equal to 3% of the refunded bond amount to determine if a
refinancing is worthwhile lo pursue.
There is no increase in the repayment term of the bonds. The final maturity will remain 2031.

THE SYSTEMS
Governance and Management
The City Manager, who is appointed by the City Council, supervises departments within the City, including
the public Works Department, which is responsible for the operations of the Water System and the Wastewater
System. The City Council approves the Water System's and the Wastewater System's budgeG, sets rates and
charges and approves execution of certain contacts. The City's Finance DePartment is responsible for customer
service and billing.
THE WATER SYSTENI
SerYice Area
The water system serves an approximately seven square mile area comprising the city and an
unincorporated area known as Burlingame Hitls. AsofJune30,2015, the City had 9,208 connections. For fiscal
Rate Setting and Billing
The City Council sets \rater and sewer rates for the respective Systems. Water and sewer rates are
reviewed armually following preparation of the proposed budget In the past, rate changes have been enacted by the
City Council based on recommendations from City staff. See also '?JSK FACTORS -Right to Vote on Taxes
Act."
The City collecs utility charges by means of a singte bi-montbly water and sewer bill to each cNtomer
listing charges for each service provided.
Bills become delinquent 30 days after billing and are enforceable by discontinuation of water service.
Signilicant Accounting Policies
The Wafer System and the Wastewater System are accounted for as enterprise funds. Enterprise funds are
used to account for operations (i) that are financed and operated in a mamer similar to priYate business enterprises
(where the intent of the goveming body is that the costs (expenses, including depreciation) of providing goods or
iervices to the general public on a continuing basis be fnanced or recovered primarily through user charges) or (ii)
where the goveming body has decided that periodic determination of revenues eamed, expenses incuned and/or net
income is appropriate for capital maintenance, public policy, management control, accountability or other purposes.
The City uses the accrual basis of accounting with respect to the enterprise funds. Revenues are recognized when
eamecl, and expenses are recognized when incuned. Water S)stem and Wastewater System revenues are used to
pay operating costs, bond debt sewice, capital expenditures, and reserve accumulations. See also

Water Supply
The City purchases all of its water from the City and County of San Francisco ("San Francisco"), which
operates a water enterprise (the "San Francisco Water Enterprise'). The City also has emergency water supply
co tectiotrs to California Water Service Company, which serves the City of San Mateo, and connections to the
systems of Hillsborough and Millbrae.
The San Francisco Water Enterprise delivers water to retail customers in San Francisco and to wholesale
customers, serving a total population of approximately 2.6 million people in the Bay Area. The City is one of
twenty-six wholesaler purchasers (the "Suburban Purchasen") from San Francisco puniuant to a Water Supply
Agreement (the "Master Contract"), effective July l, 2009. Each Suburban Purchaser also has an individual contract
with San Francisco which defines, among other things, the terms and conditions by which water is supplied to each
Suburban Purchaser. The term of service under both the individual contract and the Master Contract may be
extended by mutual consent.
Under the Master Conuact, suburban rates are set so as to produce the amount needed to supply the suburbs
with water during each fiscal year. The suburban revenue requirement is calculated on the 'htility basis", with the
Suburban Purchasers paying for their respective shares of operation and maintenance costs, administrative costs,
taxes, depreciation, and a rate ofretum on capital assets (including both a renrrn on equity and a cost ofdebD. The
Master Contact specifies that the Suburban Purchasers' share ofassured water supply is 184 million gallons per day
("mgd") (subject lo reduction under certain circumstances), of which the City's share is 5.23 mgd. The City
anticipates that it will continue to purchase water from the San Francisco Water Enterprise and that its share of the
assured supply will be sumcient to meet its needs for the foreseeable future.
Purchases by the City in recent years coDstituted approximately 3% of the San Francisco Wat€r
Enterprise's water sales to Suburban Purchasers and the City has been one of 14 Suburban Purchasers who derived
100% of their potable water from the San Fmncisco Water Ent€rprise.
The San Francisco Water Enterprise's principal storage reservot is the Hetch Hetchy Reservoir in the
Sierra Nevada, approximately 150 miles from San Francisco, constructed after Congress passed the Raker Act itr
l9l3 and enabted San Francisco to dam the Tuolumne River in Yosemite National Park. The San Francisco Water
l0
Enterprise also maintains five storage reservoirs in the Bay Area. Three of these resewoirs, the Crysral Springs
Resewoir, the Pilarcitos Reservoir and the San Andreas Reservot, are located ir San Mateo Cou:tty, adjacent to or
near the City. Water is brought from the Hetch Hetchy Reservot thrcugh a series of pipelines and tunnels. This
water accounts for approximately 79o/o of the water delivered by the San Francisco Water Enterprise. Water
distribution itr the Bay Area is accomplished through four major pipelines, two of which cross San Francisco Bay
and two of which extend around the southem end of San Francisco Bay. These four pipelines join at the southern
end of Crystal Springs Reservoir.
Hetch Hetchy Reservoir water supply does not currently require filtration and is one of several large
unfiltered municipal u/ater supplies in the natiotr. It has historically met United States Envtonmental Protection
Agency ("USEPA") and State ofCalifomia Department ofHealth Services ('DHS") standards for water quality. All
water derived from sources other than Hetch Hetchy is treated at one of two Eeatment plants operated by the San
Francisco Water Enterprise, one in the East Bay and one located on the San Francisco Peninsula.
Many components of the San Francisco Water Enterprise, portions of which were built in the late 1800's
and early 1900's, are in need of replacement and upgrading to address system deterioration and seismic concems.
San Francisco has identified capital improvement projects with an estimated cost of approximately $4.6 billion to
help ensure that San Francisco and the Bay Area continue to receive water even after seismic events, have sufficient
waier in storage to help in times of drought and have high quality drinking water that meets all regulatory
requiremenis. Ofthis amount, about $3 billion will be the Suburban Purchasers' share ofthe regional inftasEucture.
The $4.6 billion Water System Improvement Program (the "WSIP") reached the peak of construction in 2012 with
18 projects valued at $2.6 billion in construction and all major projects launched. Currently, more than two-thirds of
the 8l WSIP projects have completed construction between Califomia's Central Valley and San Francisco along the
landmark Hetch Hetchy Regional Water System delivering water to more than 2.6 million people in the Bay Area.
In 2002 the California Legislature approved several bills to assist in addressing the capital needs of the
Hetch Hetchy system. AB 1823 imposed a number of requtements on the San Francisco Public Utilities
Commission (the SFPUC-), which operated the San Francisco Water Enterprise, including that it adopt a capital
improvement program and file various reports with the State. SB 1870 created the San Francisco Bay Area
Regional Watir System Financing Authority, which can issue revenue bonds to improve the reliability of the
regional water system, subject to various conditions including entering into a contact with San Francisco. AB 2058
atihorized formation of the Bay Area water Supply and Conservation Agency ("BAWSCA"), which has
subsequently been formed by the Suburban Purchasers, and which also has the ability to raise such funds.
BAWSCA ;dditionally has authority to acquie and construct water facilities and to implement water recycling and
conservation programs. The City is a member of both agencies. The two agencies share a single staff and have
generally overlapping boards of directors comprised of representatives ofthe Suburban Purchasers. It is not known
what role, if any, either of the agencies will have in financing the necessary improvements to the water delivery
system. The City has authorized BAWSCA to negotiate on its behalf.
The City anticipates significant increases in the cost of water as a result of such capital needs. While the
exact amount and timing of such increases cannot be accurately predicted, San Francisco had Projected that
wholesale rates would increase from $2.93 per 748-gallon billing unit in frscal year 2014115 to $4.76 per billing unit
in fiscal year 2019/20, assuming continuation of the billing methodology contained in the Master Contract. The
methodotogy included payment of capital debt that is owed to the San Francisco Water Enterprise by the Suburban
purchasers. The Master Contract provides that the Suburban Purchasers, acting through BAWSCA, may prepay the
capital debt. Suburban Purchasers elected to have BAWSCA issue bonds at a lower rate to prepay the capital debt.
The prepayment witl result in a total wholesale rate which is comprised ofa lowe. wholesale rate charged by the San
Francisio Vy'ater Enterprise due to capitat debt prepayment plus a surcharge paid to BAWSCA.
As discussed above, 100% of City's water supply is imported from SFPUC. SFPUC faces various
chaltenges in the continued supply of imported water to the City. A description of these challenges as well as a
variety-of other operating info;ation with respect to SFPUC is included in certain disclosure documents prepared

Distribution and Storage Facilities
The City's distribution and storage facilities include 105 miles oftransmission and distribution pipeline; six
pump stations and seven storage tanks at five sites which proyide approximately 1.4 million galtons tbrough 9160
connections including the Burlingame Hills to a population of approximately 31,100 residents. The City does not
maintain a water teatment plant; however, it does monitor water quality. Much of the City's distribution system
ranges from 70-90 years old and is in need of replacement. See "THE IYATER SYSTEM - Capital
Improvement Program Summary" herein.
Water Supply Reliability and Drought Platr ng
The SFPUC water supply system reliability is expressed in terms of its ability to detiver water during
droughts. Reliability is defined by the amount and frequency of water delivery reductions required to bala.nce
customer demands with available supplies in droughts. The total amount of u/ater the SFPUC bas available to
deliver to its retail and wholesale customen during a defrned period of time is dependent on several factors that
include the amount ofwater that is available to SFPUC from natural runofi the amount ofwater in reservoir storage,
and the amount of water that must be released from the SFPUC's system for commitments to purposes other than
customer deliveries (such as releases below Hetch Hetchy reservoir to meet Raker Act and fishery purposes).
The SFPUC operates its system to optimize the reliability and quality of its water deliverics. Hetch Hetchy
Reservot operations are guided by two principal objectives: collection of Tuolumne River water runoff for
diversion to the Bay Area; and futfillment of the SFPUC's downstream release obligations. To ensure water supply,
Hetch Hetchy Project reservoirs remain high through the early winter, untit sufficient snowmelt runoff is forecasted
at 90olo certainty to fill all Tuolumne reservoirs. When the forecasted snowmelt is certain to be in excess ofthe fill
volume, the reservoirs may be drawn down through power operations to increase revenue without risking water
supply.
Similarly, the San Francisco Water Enterprise reservoirs are operated to conserve watershed runoff. As
such, reservoirs are drawr down eady in the winter period to capture storms and reduce the potential for spilling
water out of the reservots. In the spring, Hetch Hetchy water (snowmelt) is often transferred to three of the Bay
Area reservoirs that are capable of receiving the water so that any unused local reservoir storage is filled prior to
July 1.
Prior to 1976, droughts had not seriously affected the ability of the SFPUC to sustain full deliveries to its
customers. During the 1976-77 drought, customers' voluntarily reductions decreased gross per capita water use
from 160 to 130 gallons per capita per day. During a subsequent drought ir 1987-92, as reservoir storage continued
to decline it became apparent that continued full deliveries could not be sustained without the risk of ruming out of
water before the drought ended. As a result of these experiences, to provide some level of assurance ihat water
could be delivered continuously throughout a drought (although at reduced levels), the SFPUC adopted a drought
planning sequence, incorporating an 8.5 year drought scenario for planning purposes, and associated operating
procedures that trigger different levels of rvater delivery reductioo rationing relative to the yolume of water actually
stored in SFPUC rcservoirs. Each year, during the snowmelt period, the SFPUC evaluates the amount oftotal water
statements (the "SFPUC Information") with the Municipal Securities Rulemaking Board Electronic Municipal
Market Access system at http://emma.msrb.org. The SFPUC Infonnation is not ircorporated herein by reference
thereto, and the City makes no representation as to the accuracy or completeness ofsuch information. SFPUC HAS
NOT ENTERED INTO ANY CONTRACTUAL COMMITMENT WITH THE CITY, THE AUTHORITY, THE
TRUSTEE OR THE OWNERS OF THE BONDS TO PROVIDE SFPUC INFORMATION TO THE CITY OR
THE OWNERS OF THE BONDS.
t2
storage expected to occur tfuoughout the San Francisco Water Enterprise. If this evaluation finds the projected total
water storage to be less than an identified level sufficient to provide sustained deliveries during the drought scenario,
the SFPUC may impose delivery reductions or radoning.
Rationing. At current contractual obligations to deliver 184 mgd to the SFPUC's wholesale customers and
81 mgd to its retail customers combined with current water supplies and reservot storages, the San Francisco Water
Enterprise can be expected to experience lp lo a 25yo shortage from l5o/o to 20yo of the time, over multiple-year
drought sequences. During a drought, retail and wholesale customers could experience a reduction in the amount of
water received from the San Francisco Water Enterprise. The amount of the reduction would be dictated by existing
conuactual agreements between the SFPUC and the wholesale customers, as detailed in the existing Water Shortage
Allocation Plan ('WSAP"). The WSAP provides specific allocations of available water between the retail and
wholesale customers collectively associated with different levels of systemwide shonage. Under the WSAP,
specific rationing amounts applied lo the retail and wholesale customers will be determined by their subsequent
shortage plans as required to remain with their share ofthe systemwide allocation.
The WSAP has been caried forward in the Master Contract for slstemwide shonages ofup to 20Yo. Fot
shortages in excess of this amount, the Master Contract provides that th€ SFPUC may allocate water in its
discreiion, subject to legal challenge by wholesale customers, if agreement cannot be reached regarding teatment of
shortages in excess of20%. The Master Contract also includes provisions for drought and emergency pricing.
System Detivery Capabilig. System delivery capability is defined as the water delivery the San Francisco
Water Enterprise is able to sustain over historical hydrologic conditions including multiple-year drought sequences.
Under existirg SFPUC operations policies and procedwes, the SFPUC has a system delivery capability of 258 mgd.
That is, the Sin Francisco Water Enterprise is capable of sustaining a 258 mgd annual average delivery over a
hy&ologic period equivalenr to that eiperienced aom l92l to 2002 with shortages due to drought- Afier
"ornpt"tioo
of the W-SIP and development of dry-year suppties, the system delivery caPability is anticipated to
irr"rea"" to 262 mgd. During non-&ought years, the San Francisco Water Enterprise is capable of sustaimbly
delivering 265 mgd.
Curr€nt California Drought
The State of Califomia is in a fourth year of drought, and all water systems across the state have been
impacted. SFPUC has been heavily impacted by the consecutive dry years'
In an April l, 2015 Executive Order, Gov. Brown mandated a 25 percent water use reduction by users of
urban water sujples across Califomia. In May 2015, the State Water Resources Control Board adopted an
emergency regulation requiring an immediate 25 percent reduction in overall potable urban water use- The
regulition useJa slicling scale for setting conservation standards, so that communities that have already reduced their
ga'llon, per
"upita
per Jay tbrough pasiconservation will have lower mandates thatr those that have not made such
gains since the last major drought.
On Feb. 2, 2016, based on Gov. Brown's November 2015 Executive Order, the State Water Resources
Control Board approved an updated and extended emergency regulation that will continue mandatory reductions
ttll.ough Octobeii0l6. On January 31, 2014, the SFPUC issued a press release asking all customeB of its Hetch
Hetcn;y Regional Water System, including its residential, commercial, indusrial and municipal retail customers, as
well ai the wholesale water customen, to voluntarily cutail water consumption by at least 10% If the drought
continues to persist, the SFPUC has the ability to issue shortage allocation reductions in use, both on a voluntary and
mandatory basis.
Due to its size and high elevation, the Hetch Hetchy Watershed has certain source of supply advantages
during clry years. The average-elevation of the upcountry Hetch Hetchy Watershed is approximately 8,000 feet,
"or"ing uppro*l.ately 37Oi0O0 acres. Higher elivations are typically cooler, which allorvs for slower snowmelt
-d 1"r.""*porution. \iith these factors, thi Hetch Hetchy Watershed, the SFPUC's primary source of water, which
provides 857o of all water clelivered by the SFPUC, may, depending on weather conditions, fare better than other
balifomia watersheds located at lower elevations, or those water agencies dependent upoo the Bay-Delta oI State
Water Project sources, neither ofwhich the SFPUC relies upon for water'
l3
In addition to its Hetch Hetchy Watershed, the SFPUC has approximately 60,000 acres of watersheds in the
San Francisco Bay Area which store and collect water in hve local reservoirs. This diversification of water supply
allows for local, Bay Area rain capture, as well as the aforementioned upcouotry raiq snow and snowmelt capture.
A combination of Water Bank drawdowns from the New Don Pedro Reservot, managing storage and
reduced customer demand has contributed towards the SFPUC effectively managing Water Year 2014 (a Water
Year is the period ofOctober I ofthe prior year through September 30 ofthe year in question).
Tolal Water System storage levels would nomrally be at approximately 75% ofTotal Water System storage
capacity as of the end of December. The level as of February 22,2015 was approximately 57olo of total water
system storage capaciry. As ofNovember l, 2015 the total water in storage for the SFPUC's regional water system
was only 46.6% ofcapacity.
The SFPUC has two major drought relief capital projects underway:
The applicable drinking water standards for the Water System are contained in the California Domestic
Water Quality and Monitoring Regulations, Title 22 of the California Administrative Code. These regulations
incorporate the requirements of the United States Environmental Protection Agency in conformance with the Safe
Drinking Water Act (PL 93-523). The standards speciry water quality sampling frequencies and locations as well as
maximum concentmtions ofchemical comtituents. They are continuously being revised and amended.
The Water System is operated under a permit issued by the California Department of Health Services. The
State regulations contain requirements for both primary and secondary drinking water standards. The primary
standards pe(ain to those contaminants which, if exceeding the marimum contaminant levels, would present a risk
to the health of humans when coutinually used for drinking or culinary purposes. The secondary standards pertain to
contaminants which, if in excess of the maximum contaminant levels, may be objectionable to an appreciable
number ofpeople, but are generally not hazardous to health.
Public water supply systems in the State, such as the San Francisco Water Enterprise, are primarily
regulated by the Catifornia State Water Resources Control Board C'SWRCB) Divisioq of Drinking Water and
Environmental Management ("DDWEM"), formerly under the California Department of Public Health, and, in some
limited instances, by the EPA and Califomia Regional Water Quality Conrrol Boards ("RWQCBs").
Boy-Delta lYater Quolity Standards
The San Francisco Walet Enterprise obtains the majority of is water supply from the Hetch Hetchy
Reservoir, located on the main branch of the Tuolumne River, which is an upstream tributary to the San Joaquin
fuver and the San Francisco Bay/Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta Estuary (the 'tsay-Delta"). In 1995, the SWRCB,
which oversees the allocation of water for consumptive and envtonmental needs, adopted a Water Quality Control
Plan (the "Plan") for the Bay-Delta pusuant to State and federal obligations to protect water quality in the Bay-
Delta ecosystem. The Plan called for certain flow objectives on the San Joaquin River where it enters the Delta and
certain Delta outflows. Because San Francisco is an upstream tributary water right holder, the SWRCB notified 500
parties, including San Francisco, in 1997 that they may be required to implement the Plan by providing water to the
Bay-D€lta ecosystem.
In 2000, the SWRCB issued an order implementing the Plan. The order requires the United States Bureau
of Reclamation and the California Depanment of Water Resources to provide flows and restrict expon pumping to
implement the San Joaquin River portion of the Plan until the SWRCB otherwise assigns responsibility to provide

Tbrough these projects, the SFPUC a icipates the ability to access and reliably filter [:ke Eleanor and Cherry Iake
water supplies for delivery to its water customers during extended drought periods, or when there is i$ufficient
storage in other facilities in the San Francisco Water Enterprise to meet customer demands.
Regulatory Issues
flow. The order does not in any way condition San Francisco's rights to divert water from the Tuolumne River, nor
does it require San Francisco to release water to implement the Plan.
In 2006, the SWRCB amended the Plan (tbe "2006 Plan") aod identified San Joaquin River flows as an
issue of emerging concern because various fish species in the Delta and San Joaquin River basin had not shown
significant signs of recovery under the 1995 Plan. In 2008, in light ofcontinued decline in anadromous and pelagic
(open water) fish species, the SWRCB adopted a Strategic Workplan for Activities in the San Francisco
Bay/Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta Estuary. The Strategic Workplan calls for review and implementation of the
Plan's San Joaquin River flow objectives.
In February 2009, the SWRCB noticed its intent to review and update water quality objectives of the 2006
Plan and the program of implementation, which could result in changes to water rights and watff quality regulation
consistent with the program of implementation. In a letter dated December 19, 201l, the SWRCB stated it would
complete its review ofthe 2006 Plan's San Joaquin River flow objectives by September 2012.
In 2012, the SWRCB issued a supplemental environmental document ("SED") in support ofamendments to
the 2006 Plan, that examined several altemative San Joaquin River flow objectives and irnplementation strategies.
The SED was the subject of extensive public comment, and the SWRCB stated it would revise the SED and reissue
it for public comment in Spring 20t5. The analysis considered the environmental impacts of changes to the Lower
San Joaquin River flows to support and maintain the natural production of viable native San Joaquin fuver
watershed fish populations migating through the Bay-Delta. The range of flows analyzed included springtime
releases totaling ftom 20o/o to 60% of natural unimpaired flows (i.e. flow without dams in place) on the Stanislaus.
Tuolunme and Merced Rivers, with a preferred altemative of 35% ofunimpaired flows. Should the SWRCB decide
to implement this proposal, any necessary changes to upstream water rights would be considered in a separate
pro""idiog. If that occurs, the SWRCB may require the SFPUC to release water from its system, and, depending
upon the quantity, there could be an increase in the degree ofrationing requked by San Francisco's water customers
during times of extended drought.
Endangered Species
Various aquatic species (including native fishes) present in the Tuolumne River and Bay Area streams
(e.g., Alameda, San Mateo and Pilarcitos Creeks) are either listed or candidates for listing under the State or federal
endangered species acts. New listings and future enforcement actions under the acts, or conditions placed in permits
to undertake tonstruction for certain WSIP projecs, coutd potentially directly affect water supplies available to the
San Francisco Water Enterprise. The SFPUC is working with the responsible State and federal agencies to obtain
permis under the acrs, which would avoid regulatory uncenainty and ensure water suPply reliability for the San
Francisco Water Enterprise. In addition, future enforcement actions involving the Bay-Delta or Bay-Delta
tributaries could further affect the availability of supplies to the State Water Project and the Cental Valley Project,
reducing SFPUC customers' altemate water supplies and increasing their need for additional San Francisco Water
Enterprise deliveries.
on August 18, 2014, the center for Environmental science, Accuracy, & Reliability ("GESAR") and Jean
Sagouspe, a meirber ofCESAR and an owner of farmland in Califomia's Central Valley that receives its water from
ttJCVi (ttte *ptaintiffs"), filed a complaint against the National Park Service ("NPS") and named federal officials
(collectively the "Federal Defendans") in Federal District Court in the District ofColumbia. The Complaint alleges
ihat NPS annuatly approves instream flow releases from the "Hetch-Hetchy Project," and further alleges that the
Federal Defendants liive failecl to comply with the Endangered Species Act ("ESA ') and NEPA in corurection with
such alleged annual approvals. San Francisco requested to intervene in the case and, along with the Federal
Defendants, has requesied to transfer venue to the Eastern District of Califomia. The DC District court granted the
motion to transfer venue, and San Francisco's motion to intervene was granted by the Eastern District. The Federal
Defendants view the Plaintiffs' claims as frivolous and without merit. Nevertheless, as the Plaintiffs request that the
Cout enjoin the certain diversions from the Tuolumne River and enjoin operation of the 'Hetch Hetchy Project"
until the Federal Defendants comply with the ESA and NEPA in connection with the alleged aruual approvals, were
such injunctive relief to be granted, in whole or in part, tho regional water supply would necessarily be significantly
reduced-
l5
Increqsed Local Resemoir l{ater Releases lor Fbhery Flows
In order to comply with permit requirements in connection with dam and reservoir improvements to be
carried out as part of the WSIP, the SFPUC has implemented schedules of hstream flow releases Aom Crystal
Springs Reservoir into San Mateo Creek, and from Calaveras Reservoir into Alameda and Calaveras Creeks, to
enhance habitat for native fish. The SFPUC implemented the flow schedule for San Mateo Creek in 2015, and
anticipates that the flow schedules for Alameda and Calaveras Creeks would be implemented in approximately 2018
(in each case after the related dam improvement projects are completed).
The SFPUC has estimated that implementation of these proposed water releases could result in a potential
average annual decrease in available water supply captured from the local watersheds of approximately 7.4 mgd
from what was assumed under the adopted WSIP.
Capital Improvement Program Summrry
In the early 2000's, the City significantly expanded its capital improvement prograr! primarily to increase
the rate of replacement of aging water mains. Since then, the City has made $38 million of improvements to the
Wat€r System, including seismic repairs to a reservoir, a new pump station and transmission line, 22 miles of new
water lines and 1200 replacements/upgrades to existing connections. The City's Five Year Capital Improvement
Ptar (tkough fiscal year 2020121) for the Water System adopted n 2015116, which totals approximately $88
million, is summarized in the table below. The City plans to fund the capital improvement though Water System
revenues. Additional rate increases are expected to be necessary to fully fund the Five Year Capital Improvement
Plan needs. See also "Debt Service Coverage" herein.

THE WASTEWATER SYSTENI
Service Area
The Wastewater System serves an approximately 8 square mile area comprising the City, a portion of the
Town of Hillsborough and an unincorporated area known as Burlingame Hills. As of June 30, 2015, the City had
approximately 8300 connections within the City. Service to Hillsborough and Burlingame Hills is provided through
agreements with the Town of Hillsborough and the Burlingame Hills Sewer Maintenance District. There are
approximately [750] householcls in llillsborough which are served by the Wastewater System and approximately
396 in Burlingame Hills. For fiscal year 2015/16, bitlings to residential customers comprised approxrnately 74.4Yo
of total billings for the Wastewater System. Commercial users consist primarily of retail stores and service
businesses. The City also has a number ofmajor hotelVmotels which arc adjacent to and serve travele$ utilizing the
San Francisco Intemational Airpon. Industrial users tend to be light manufacturing. Wastewater charges within the
City are based on water coffumption. See "THE WATER SYSTEM - Service Area" for iDformation on Water
System connections by land use within the City and Burlingame Hills.
Transmission and Treatment Facilities
The City owns, maintains atld opefirtes approximately 130 miles of sanitary sewer pipeline, seven sewage
li& stations, a 1.6 million gallon retention basin and a wastewater treatment plant facility. Much of the City's
transmission system ranges from 70-90 years old and is in need of replacement (see "THE WASTEWATER
SYSTEM -Capital Improvement Program Summary'). The wastewater plant was originally constructed in the
1930's. Prior to lhe improvements completed in 2006, as discussed below, the major upgrades occurred in 1991.
The current dry weather flow design capacity of the treatment facilities is 5.5 mgd and the peak wet weather flow is
16 mgd. The combined residential, commercial and industrial average dry weather flow is currently about 2.7 mgd.
Wastewater keatment facilities provide primary, secondary and tertiary heatment of sewage. The City contracts
with an outside vendor, Veolia Water West Operating Services, lnc., formerly U.S. Filter/EOS ("Veolia Water"), for
the operation and mainlenance ofthe treatment plant (the "Veolia Agreement"). The operational arrangement with
the current vendor and a predecessor company has been in place since 1972. The curreut contract expires on July l,
20 I 8 . The [eatment plant is currently staffed and operated on an eleven-hour, hve-day per week basis by a staff of
approximately ten Veolia Water employees, including a lab technician, and one Veolia Water employee on an eight-
hour daily basis on weekends and holidays. Automatic equipment monitors the treatment process during non-staffed
evening, weekend and holiday hours.
In 2006, the City completed a number of significant improvements to the treatment plant to upgrade the
performance of several unit processes and to increase their reliability to help meet discharge requirements. The
improvements include (i) a new sludge dewatering building and pump statioo, (ii) existing aeration basin
modifications, (iii) existiog blower equipment room modifications, (iv) an existing primary clarifier drain pump
relocation, (v) a new waste gas bumer, (vi) existing headwork improvements, (vii) a new vacuum truck unloading
station facility, (viii) existing retum activated sludge pump modihcations, (ix) a new electrical building, (x) a new
supewisory control and data acquisition system, (xi) pump station control system upgrade, (xii) existing electrical
system and instrumentation modifications, (xiii) existing site demolition and improvements and (xiv) a new
retention basin which rvas completed in 201I at a cost of$7 million. The cost of the treatme[t plant improvements
was approximately $11.45 million and was funded mainly from the proceeds of a loan from the State Water
Resources Control Board in the original principal amount of approximately $10.7 million (see "TEE
WASTEWATER SYSTEM - Existing Long-Term Obligations; Eristing and Additional Parity Obligations"
herein).
21
The Veolia Agreement can be renewed for successive five year terms. Prior to any renewal ofthe Veolia
Agreemont, the City and Veolia Water will complete a reasonableness cost review to compare the City's wastewater
treatment costs with those of local communities with similar demographics. Following the review of the
reasonableness cost review, the City has sole discretion to renew to renew the contract at a rate offered by Veolia
Water, renegotiate or take other actions.
Regulatory Issues
The wastewater treatment facility operates under Order No. R2-2013-0015 Permit Number CA0037?88,
issued by the RWQCB, San Francisco, Bay Region, on July 1, 2013 and runs through June 30, 2018.
In general, the City's wastewaler operations have been maintained within the discharge limits and other
requfuements of its National Pollution Discharge Elimination System ("NPDES") permit. There have been
occasional exceedances, which is not unexpected given the complexity of wastewater treatment. The exceedances
have been minor in nature and therefore have not resulted in signifrcant regulatory action.
On January 1,2000, SB 709, known as the Clean Water Enforcement and Pollution Preventioo Act of
1999, became effective. This act added several provisions to the California Water Code ("CWC") Division 17.
New sections 13385(h), (i) and 0) provide for mandatory minimum penalties of$3,000 per violation as described in
the CWC. Since this Act removes much of the discretion previously granted to Regional Boards, there is a
possibility that the City as well as many other public owned treatment works may have an occrurence for which a
mandatory penalty may be issued. To date the City has not received any mandatory penalties under the Act. The
City cannot determine the impact of this tegislation in the future but does not articipate that it will impair its ability
to make the Installment Payments under the Wastewater Installment Sale Agreement.
In 2007, the San Francisco Baykeeper, a nonprofit corporation (the "BaykeePei') filed a complaint against
the City in the United States District Cout of the Northern District of Califomia (the "Court'), alleging, among
ottrer things, certain violations of the Clean Water AcL The City and Baykeeper settled the litigation and entered
into a Consent Decree, approved by the Cout on October 6,2008 (the "Consent Decree"). In accordance with the
Consent Decree, the City constructed a retention basin at the wastewater treatment plant in 201l. Additionally,
pursuant to the Consent becree, the City is rcquked to monitor and report its near shore outfall and certain sanitary
iewer overflow. Based on such reports, the City may be required to construct additional capital improvements
identihed by the City to minimize the overflow. The City does not believe comPliance with the Consent Decree will
require adclitional capital improvements other than those already in the capital improvement plan and the City does
,,oi b"li.r" compliance with the Consent Decree will impair its ability to make Installnent Paymetrts under the
Wastewater Installment Sale Agreement.
Av€rage Water Consumption
Wastewater charges to residential users withiu the City are based on water consumption. See "THE
WATER SYSTEM - Eistorical Consumption" for information on water consumPtion by land use category'
Residential customers are charged primarily on the basis of the average winter (January - April) water
consumption for the preceding 3 years.

The top ten rate payers ofthe Wastewater System represented less than 8.2% of the Wastewater System's
current billings for fiscal year 2014/15. The largest customer represeated approximately 3% of the amount billed
and the second largest customer represented approximately 3%.
Historical and Curre[t Rates
Wastewater System customers are charged based upon tle quantity of metered water used per 3 year
bimonthly billing period. The City retained and is currently working with a rate coosultant to update lhe City's rate
model. The findings ofsuch consultant's rate study will inform future rate increases.

Capital Improvement Program Summary
Since 2003, the City significantly expanded its capital improvement program, primarily for sewer
rehabilitation and treatment plant improvements. Over the last 12 years the City has made 556 million of
improvements including replacing 30 miles of server pipe, ?00 manholes and 3,000 service laterals in the collection
system as well as rebuilding several facilities at the teatnent plant. The City's Five Year Capital Improvement Plan
(t1nough lrscal year 2021/22) for the sewer master plan totals approximately $21.3 million. The City plans to fund
27
the capital improvement program tkough wastewater revenues. Additional rate increases may be necessary to fully
fund Capital Improvement needs and are being evaluated. See "Debt Service Coverage" herein.
The City is in the process ofupdating its capital improvement budget, however, the annual project costs are
not expected to change significantly.

Subordinate to the paJment of debt service on Parity Obligations, funds are transferred to the General Fund
to reimburse 33yo of tbe payment of the total debt service on the City's Outstanding Series 2010 I-ease Revenue
Bonds and 12.5% of the total debt service on the City's Outstanding PeDsion Obligation Bonds.
RISK FACTORS
Payment of principal of and interest on the Bonds depends primarily upon the revenues derived from
operation of the Water System and the Wastewater System. Some of the events which could affect the revenues
received by th€ Water System and/or the Wastewater System, as well as issues that could affect the availability of
moneys ir any reserves, are set forth below. The following discussion ofrisks is rtot meant to be an exhaustive list
of the risks associated rvith the purchase of the Bonds and the order in which the risks are discussed does not
necessadly reflect the relative importance ofthe various risks.
Limited Obligations
The Bonds are limited obligations of the Authority payable solely from Revenues, generally consisting of
the Installmetrt Palments. The obligations of the City to make Installment Payments are not payable from, or
secured by a legal or equitable pledge or charge or lien upon, any property of the City or any of its income or
receipts, except the System Net Revenues. The obligation of the City to pay the Installment Payments from System
Net Revenues does not coostitute an obligation of the City to lelry or pledge any form of taxation or for which the
City has levied or pledged any form oftaxation.
The City is obligated under the Installment Sale Agreements to make payments solely from the respecdve
System Net Revenues. There is no assurance that the City can succeed in operating the Watff System or the

Wastewater System such that the System Net Revenues in the future wifl be sufticient for that purpose. See also
"Right to Vote on Taxes Act" below.
The pledge of the System Net Revenues under each lnstallment Sale Agreement secures only the obligation
to pay Installment Payments and other obligations under tbat particular lnstallment Sale Agreemenl The City is not
to make for a in the Installment P
connection with the other SYstem.
System Operation and Expenses
There can be no assurance that the City's expenses for the Water System and for the Wastewater System
will be consistent with the descriptions in this Omcial Statement. Changes in technology changes in quality
standards, availability and cost of water, loss of large customers, increased or decreased development, increases in
the cost of operation and/or other expenses could require increases in rates or charges in order to comply with the
City's rate covenants in the Installment Sale Agreements.
The City's contract with Veolia l ater for the op€ration and maintenance of the City's treatment plant
cu[ently expires July l, 2018, and is renewable for successive five y€ar terms. The operational arangement with
the current vendor and a predecessor company has been in place since 1972.
Limited Recourse on Default
Failure by the City to pay Installment Pa,,ments constitutes an event of default under the applicable
Installment Sale Agreement and the Trustee is permitted to pursue remedies at law or in equity to enforce the City's
obligation to make such payments. Although the Trustee has the right to accelerate the total unpaid principal
amount of the Installment Payments under the applicable Installment Sale Agreement, there is no assurance that the
City would have sufficient funds to pay the accelerated amounts. See also "Right to Vote on Taxes Act" herein.
Limitations on Revenues
The ability of the City to comply with its covenants under the Instaltnent Sale Agreements and to generate
System Net Revenues sufhcient to pay principal of and interest with respect to lostallnent Paymens may be
adversely affected by actions and events outside of the control of the City and may be advenely affected by actions
taken (or not taken) by voters, property owne$, taxpayers or persons obligated to pay assessments, fees and charges.
See "Right to Vote on Taxes Act" below. Furthermore, the remedies available to the owners ofthe Bonds upon the
occurence of an event of default under the Trust Agre€ment and/or the Installment Sale Agreements are in many
respects dependent upon judicial actions which are often subject to discretion and delay and could prove both
expensive and time consuming to obtain.
Regulatory Risk
Laws and regulations goveming the diversion and storage of surface waters, water treatment and
wastewater treatment and disposal, are enacted and promulgated by govemment agencies on the federal, state and
local levels. Compliance with these laws and regulations may be costly.
Although the City has covenanted in the Installment Sale Agreements to fix, prescribe, revise and collect
revenues for the Water System and the Wastewater System during each Fiscal Year which are at least sufficient to
pay operating and maintenance expenses, to pay related debt service, aud meet certain coverage requirements, no
assumnce can be given that the cost of compliance with such laws and regulatioos will not adversely affect the
ability ofthe City to generate System Net Revenues in the amounts required by the Installment Sale Agreements and
to pay debt service on the Bonds. See "SECURITY AND SOT RCES OF PAYIvIENT FOR THE BONDS -Rate Covenant" herein.

Proposals to Restore Hetch Hetchy valley
Various envionmeDtal organizations have from time to time advocated for the removal of the Hetch
Hetchy reservoir and the restoration of Hetch Hetchy Valley. For example, an initiative ordinance entitled the
"Water Sustainability and Environmental Restoration Planning Act of2012" qualified for the November 2012 San
Francisco ballot with support from an organization called "Restore Hetch Hetchy' and would have required San
Francisco to identiry alternative sources of water and, subject to cenain additional conditions, end its use of the
Hetch Hetchy Reservoir. This initiative was rejected by San Francisco voters.
There have been previous studies that examined prior proposals to remove the Hetch Hetchy Reservoir.
For example, the Califomia Department of Water Resources and the California Department of Parks and Recreation
issued a comprehensive report and concluded that it does appear technically feasible to restore Hetch Hetchy valley,
but expressed caution about the firancial feasibility. Th€ study estimated that the total cost for such a project would
range ftom nearly $3 billion to $10 billion. The planning effort alone, they concluded, would take up to ten years to
complet€ and would cost an additional $65 million dollan.
The City is unable to predict whether any similar iniriatives, or similarfederal or state legislation, might be
approved by the voters or adopted by legislative bodies in the future, or the potential impact of such eforts on the
City or ,he ll/ater Enterpise.
Initiatives
In recent years several iaitiative measures have been proposed or adopted which affect the ability of local
governments to increase taxes aod rates. There is no assurance that the electorate or the State legislature will not at
some future time approve additional limitations which could affect the ability ofthe City to implement rate increases
which could reduce System Net Revenues and adversely affect the security for the Bonds. See "Right to Vote on
Taxes Act" below.
Bankruptcy
The rights and remedies provided in the Trust Agreement and the Installment Sale Agreements may be
limited by and are subject to the provisions of federal bankmptcy laws, to other laws or equitable principles that may
affect the enforcement of creditors' rights, to the exercise of judicial discretion in appropriate cases and to
limitations on legal remedies against public agencies in the State of Califomia. The various opinions ofcounsel to
be delivered with respect to the Bonds and the Trust Agreement, including the opinion of Bond Counsel, will be
similarly qualified. If the City were to file a petition under Chapter 9 of the BaDkruptcy Code, the Owners of the
Bonds and the Trustee could be prohibited from taking any steps to enforce their rights under the Trust Agreement
and./or Installment Sale Agreemetrts. In the event the City fails to comply with its covenants under the Installment
Sale Agreements or fails to pay the Installment Payments, there can be no assurance of the availability of remedies
adequate to protect the interest of the holders of the Bonds. See "APPENDIX E - FORI\I OF LEGAL
OPINION OF BOND COUNSEL".
Tax Exemption of the Bonds
The City and Authority have covenanted in the Installment Sale Agreements and Trust Agreement,
respectively, that they will take all actions necessary to assure the exclusion of interest on the Bonds from the gross
income ofthe Owners ofthe Bonds for federal income tax purposes. lfthe City or Authority fail to comply with the
foregoing tax covenant, the interest on the Bonds may be includable in the gross income of the Owners thereof for
federal tax purposes. See "MISCELLAIIEOUS - Tax Matters" herein.
Additional Obligatiorrs
The lnstallment Sale Agreements permit lhe issuance of Parity Obligations secured by System Net
Revenues on a parity basis and/or a subordinate basis to the respective lnstallment Payments. The City has issued,
and anticipates issuing in the future such additional Parity Obligations. Such additional Installnent Payments would
increase debt service payable from System Net Revenues and could adversely affect debt service coverage with
36
respect to the applicable Installment Payments. In such event, however, the rate covenant described herein will
remain in effect. See "SECIJRITY AND SOURCES OF PAYtoIENT FOR THE BONDS - Rat€ Covenant"
herein.
Seismic and lVildfire Considerations
The Hetch Hetchy Regional Water System and the City's Water Syst€m and Wastewater S)6tems are
located in a seismically active region of the State. Earthquakes and other oatural disasters, including without
limitation wildfires, flooding and landslides, or man-made disasters, including without limitation natural gas
pipeline failures or explosions, could interrupt operation of these systems. The Hetch Hetchy Regional Water
Slstem crosses 3 major earthquake faults, and the City, like most regions adjacent to the Pacific Ocean, is an area of
signihcant seismic activity and, therefore, is subject to potentially destructive earthquakes. The San Andreas fault is
the major active fault closest to the City, and is approximately 3 miles from the City. Several active or potentially
active faults are located closer to the City.
On October 17, 1989, at 5:04 pm, a 7.1 magnitude earthquake occurred in Loma Prieta, California, which is
located approximately 50 miles from the City. The City sustained minimal damage at is facilities. There was minor
damage at the wastewater treatment plant but operations were not interrupted. Within the City, the Hyatt Regency
Hotel was closed for one year and the Amfac Hotel was closed permanently and subsequendy demolished.
Water conveyance facilities are designed to withstand earthquakes, wildfires and other natural disasters
with minimal damage. WSIP seismic retrohtting and upgrading was designed to provide greater agility in the
continued delivery of water. ln March 2015, the 3.S-mile-long, seismically-improved New Irvington Tunnel located
between the Sunol Valley and Fremont, California began delivering water to the San Francisco Bay Area. The New
Irvington Tunnel project completes the last of three new tunnels constructed under WSIP, designed to withstand
earthquakes on the Hayvard, Calaveras and San Andreas fauls.
In August and September 2013, the Rim Fire bumed approximately 257,000 acres in Tuolumne and
Mariposa counties and reached the edges of the Hetch Hetchy Reservoir watershed. Throughout the Rim Fire event,
the Hetch Hetchy Regional Water Syslem continued to deliver water to its customers in San Francisco and
throughout the Bay Area.
Underground water conveyance facilities are not !,ulnerable to damage by wildfires. Above-ground
facilities are designed to be tolerant to damage by wildfires as the facitities are constructed of poured concrete or
slump bloct<, and the rights of way near facilities are maintained clear of plant growth or landscaped wift drought
tolerant plants making them less vulnerable to damage by wildfires.
WSIP provided a greater agility in the conthued delivery of high-quality water [DISCUSS ANY
EMERGENCY MANAGEMENT PROGRAM AND/OR PREPAREDNESS FOR THE ABOVE EVENTS]
Drought
The State is located in a semi-arid region and is subject to periodic &ought. An extended drought could
adversely affect the ability of the City to deliver water sufficient to satisry all of the demands of its customers.
Water System rates and Wastewater charges to residential users within the City are based on water consumption. If
the City v/ere to deliver less water to its customeB, the City would need to increase the rates payable by customeG
or Revenues would decline. The City may also seek to acquire, and would be obligated to pay the cost of, additional
water to deliver to its customers. The SFPUC has adopted a drought planning sequence and associated oPerating
procedures respecting the delivery of water during a drought. For a discussion of the current California droughts,
see "WATER SYSTEMS - Current Califomia Drought".
Endangered Species
Various aquatic species (including native fishes) present in the Tuolumle River and Bay Area skeams
(e.g., Alameda, San Mateo and Pilarcitos Creeks) are either listed or candidates for listing under the State or federal
37
endangered species acts. New listings and future enforcement actions under the acts, or conditions Placed in permits
to undertake construction for certain projects, could potentially dircclly affect water flow and/or water supplies
available to the Water Enterprise. See "WATER SYSTEMS - Regulatory Issues - Endangered Species".
Right to Vote on Taxes Act
General. On November 5, 1996, the voters of the State approved Proposition 218, the so-called "Right to
Vote on Taxes Act." Proposition 218 adds Articles XIII C and XIII D to the State Constihrtion, which affect the
ability of local govemments to levy and collect both existing and future taxes, assessments, fees and cbarges.
Proposition 218, which became effective on November 6, 1996 (although application ofsome of is provisions was
deferred until July l, 1997) changes, among other things, the procedure for the imposition of new or increased fees
or charges.
Article XIl C. Article XIII C requircs that all new local taxes be submitted to the electorate for approval
before such taxes become effective. General taxes, imposed for general govemmetrtal purposes ofthe City, require
a majority vote, and special taxes, imposed for specific purposes, require a two-thirds vot€. Under Proposition 218,
the City can only continue to collect taxes that were imposed after January I, 1995 if they were approved by the
voters by November 6, 1998.
Article XIll D. Under Article XIII D, revenues derived from a "fee" or "charge" (defmed as "any leyy
other than an ad valorem tax, a special tax or an ass€ssment, imposed by a local govemment upon a parcel or upon a
person merely as an incident of property ownership, including user fees or charges for a property related service")
may not exceed the funds required to provide the "property-related service" and may not be used for any purpose
other than that for which the fee or charge was imposed. Further, (i) the amourt of a "fee" or "charge" may not
exceed the proportional cost of the service attributablc to the parcel, (ii) no "fee" or "charge" may be imposed for a
service unless that service is actually used by, or is immediately available to, the orvner ofthe property h questiotr
and (iii) no "fee" or "charge" may be imposed for general governmental services where the service is "available to
the public at large in substantially the same manner as it is to the property owners." All new and existing property-
related fees and charges must conform to specific requircments and prohibitions set forth in the Anicle. Further,
before any property-related fee or charge may be imposed or increased, written notice must be given to the record
omer ofeach parcel ofland affected by such fee or charge. The City must then hold a hearing upon the proposed
imposition or increase, and if written protests against the proposal are presented by a majority of the owners of the
identified parcels, the City may not impose or increase the fee or charge. Moreover, except for fees or charges for
water, wastewater and refuse collection services (or fees for electrical and gas service, which are exempt from
Proposition 218), no propeny-related fee or charge may be imposed or increased without majority approval by the
property owners subject to the fee or charge or, at the option of the local agency, two-thirds approval by those
residing in the affected area and voting at the election. (See "THn WATER SYSTEM - Historical and Curr€nt
Rates" and "THE IVASTEIVATER SYSTEM - Historical and Current Rates" herein.)
lYqter antl ,r/astewater Service Fees and Charges. Since Proposition 218 was enacted in 1996, it had been
unclear if water and wastewater service fees and charges are property-related fees and charges and thus subject to
the requirements of Section 6 of Article XIII D. As a result of this uncertainty, the City has, since July l, 1997,
followed the notice and public hearing requLements of Section 6 of Article XIII D before imposing or increasing
any water or wastewater service fees or charges. In addition, the City believes that all of its water and wastewater
service fees and charges currently comply with all ofthe requirements ofSection 6 of Article XIII D. The City has
not, however, conplied with the votL requirement of Section 6 of Anicle XIII D because rvater or wastewater
service fees and charges are clearly excluded from this requirement.
The Califomia Supreme Court decisions in Richmond v. Shasta Community Services District, 32 Cat. 4th
409 (200a) ("Ri9!aqeqd"), and Bishom-Desert View Water AEencv vs. lgqijl fuublished July 24, 2006) ("8!gb9E')
have clarified some ofthe uncertainty surrounding the applicability ofSection 6 ofArticle )(III D to service fees and
charges- In Richmond, the Shasta Community Services District charged a water comection fee, which included a
capacity charge for capital improyements to the water system afld a fue suppression charge. The Court held that
both the capacity charge and the fire suppression charge were not subject to Anicle XIII D because a water
connection fee is not a property-related fee or charge because it results from the property owner's voluntary decision
38
to apply for the connection- In both Richmond and Biehom, however, the Court stated that a fee for ongoing water
service through an existing connection is imposed "as an incident of property ownership" withia the meaning of
Article XIII D, rejecting, in Biehorn, the water agency's argument that consumption-based water charges are not
imposed "as an incident of property ownership" but as a result of the voluntary decisions of customers as to how
much water to us€.
Article XIII C extends the people's initiative power to reduce or repeal existing local taxes, assessments,
fees and charges. This extension of the initiative power is not limited by the terms of Article XIII C to fees, taxes,
assessment iees and charges imposed after November 6, 1996 and absent other authority could result in rehoactive
reduction in any existiag taxes, assessments, fees or charges. In Biehom, the Court concluded that under Article
XIII C local voters by initiative may reduce a public agency's water rates and delivery charges. The Court noted,
however, that it was not holding that the authorized initiative power is free of all limitatiors, stating that it was not
deterrnidng whether the electorate's initiative power is subject to the public agency's statutory obligation to set
water service charges at a level that will "pay the operating expenses of the agency, ... provide for repairs and
depreciation of works, provide a reasonable surplus for improvements, extensions, and enlargements, pay the
interest on any bonded debt, and provide a sinking or other fund for the payment of the principal of such debt as it
may become due."
No assurance may be giveo that Articles XIII C and XIII D will not have a material adverse impact on the
City's Net Water Revenues.
THE AUTIIORITY
Organization and Membership
The Authority was formed purcuant to the provisions of Articles 1,2 ar.d 4 of the Act and the Joint
Exercise of Powers Agreement, dated as of May 1, 1995 (the'JPA Agreement"), by and between the City and the
Agency. The Authority was formed by and between the City and the Agency to assist in the hnancing and
refinancing of public capital improvements.
The Authority functions as a public entity, separate and apart from the City and the Agency, and is
administered by a five-member goveming board consisting of the members of the City Council. The City Attorney
serves as counsel to the Authority. The Authority has no employees and all staff work is perfomed by the City, the
Agency, or coDsultants.
PolYers
Under the JPA Agreement, the Authority is €mpowered to assist in the financing and refinancing ofpublic
capital improvements through the issuance of bonds in accordance with the Act. To exercise its powers, the
Authority is authorized, in its own name, to do all nccessary acts, including but not limited to making and entering
into contracts; employing agents and employees; and to sue or be sued in its own name.
NIISCELLANEOUS
Ratirg
Standard & Poor's Ratings Group, a Standard & Poor's Financial Services LLC business ("S&P"), has
assigned its municipal bond ratirg of "Ll" to the Bonds. Such rcting reflect only the view of such organization,
and an explanation of the significance of such ratings may be obtained from S&P at Standard & Poor's Ratings
Services, 55 Water Street, New York, New York 10041. The City fumished to S&P ce(aitr information and
materials conceming the Bonds and the City. Generatly, S&P bases their ratings on such information and materials
and otr investigations, studies and assumptions made by the rating agencies. There is no assurance that such rating
will continue for any given period of time or that such rating will not be revised dorvnward or withdrawn entirely by
S&P, if in its judgment circumstances so warant. Any such downward revision or rvithdrarval may have an adverse
effect oo the market price ofthe Bonds.
39
Litigation
At the time of delivery of and palment for the Bonds, officials of the City and Authority will ceniry that to
the best of such officials' knowledge there is no action, suit, litigation, inquiry or investigation before or by any
court, govemmental agency, public board or body served or threatened, against the Authority or City, respectively,
or the titles of their officers to their respective ofEces or seeking to prohibit, restrain or enjoin the sale, execution or
delivery of the Bonds or the payments of th6 Installrrent Payments or challenging the validity or enforceability of
the Installment Sale Agreements or the Trust Agreement.
Tar Matters
In the opinion of Orick, Herrington & Sutcliffe LLP ("Bond Counsel"), based upon an analysis ofexisting
laws, regulations, rulings and court decisions, and assuming, among olher matters, the accuracy of certain
representations and compliance with certain covenants, interest on the Bonds is excluded from gross income for
federal income tax purposes under Section 103 of the Intemal Revenue Code of 1986 (the "Code") and is exempt
from State of Catifomia personal income taxes. Bond Counsel is ofthe further opinion that interest on the Bonds is
not a specific preference item for purposes of the federal individual or corporate altemative ninimum taxes,
although Bond Counsel observes that such itrterest is included in adjusted curent eamings when calculating
corporate altemative minimum taxable income. A complete copy ofthe proposed form ofopinion ofBond Counsel
is set forth in AIPENDIX E -'FORM OF LEGAL OPINION OF BOND COUNSEL."
To the extent the issue price of any maturity of the BoBds is less than the amount to be paid at maturity of
such Bonds (excluding amounts stated to be interest and payable at least arurually over the term of such Bonds), the
difference constitutes "original issue discount," the accrual of which, to the extent properly allocable to each owner
thereof, is treated as interest on the Bonds which is excluded from gross income for federal income tax purposes and
exempt from State of California personal income taxes. For this purpose, the issue price of a particular maturity of
the Bonds is the first price at which a substantial amount of such maturity of the Bonds is sold to the public
(excluding bond houses, brokers, or similar persons or organizations acting in the capacity of underwriters,
placement agents or wholesalers). The original issue discount with respect to any maturity of the Bonds accrues
daily over the terrn to maturity of such Bonds on the basis of a constant interest rate compounded semiannually
(with straight-line interpolations between compoundirg dates). The accruing original issue discount is added to the
adjusted basis of such Bonds to determine taxable gain or loss upon disposition (including sale, redemption, or
pa).rnent on maturity) of sirch Bonds. Owners of the Bonds should coDsult their own ta.x advisors with respect to the
tax consequences of ownership ofBonds with original issue discount, including the treatment of orners who do not
purchase such Bonds in the original offering to the public at the frst price at which a substantial amount of such
Bonds is sold to the public.
Bonds purchased, whether at original issuance or otherwise, for an amount higher than their principat
amount payable at maturity (or, in some cases, at their earlier call date) ("Premium Bonds") will be teated as having
amortizable bond premium. No deduction is allowable for the amortizable bond premium in the case ofbonds, like
the Premium Bonds, the interest on which is excluded from gross income for federal income tax purposes.
However, the amount of tax-exempt interest received, and an oumer's basis in a Premium Bond, will be reduced by
the amount of amortizable bond premium properly allocable to such owner. Owners of Premium Bonds should
consult their own tax advison with respect to the proper treatment of amonizable bond premium in their particular
circumstances.
The Code imposes various restrictions, conditions and requirements relating to the exclusion from gross
income for federal income tax purposes of interest on obligations such as the Bonds. The City has made certain
representations and covenanted to comply with certain restrictions, conditions and requirements designed to ensure
d1at interest on the Bonds will not be included in federal gross income. Inaccuracy of these representations or
failure to comply rvith these covenants may result in interest on the Bonds being included in gross income for
federal income tax purposes, possibly from the date oforiginal issuance ofthe Bonds. The opinion ofBond Counsel
assumes the accuracy of these representations and compliance with these covenaflts. Bond Counsel has uot
undertaken to determine (or to inform any person) whether any actions taken (or Dot taken) or events occurring (or
not occurring), or any other matters coming to Bond Counsel's attentio[ after the date ofissuance of the Bonds may
40
adversely affect the value of, or the tax status of interest on, the Bonds. Accordingly, the opinion ofBond Counsel
is not intended to, and may not, be relied upon in connection with any such actions, events or matters.
Although Bond Counsel is of the opinion that interest on the Bonds is excluded from gross income for
federal income tax purposes and is exempt from State of Califomia personal income taxes, the ownership or
disposition of, or the accrual or receipt of interest on, the Bonds may otherwise affect an owner's federal, state or
local tax liability. The nature and extent of these other tax consequences depends upon the particular tax status of
the owner or the owner's other items of income or deduction. Bond Counsel expresses no opinion regarding any
such other tax consequences.
Current and future legislative proposals, if enacted into law, clarification of the Code or court decrsrons
may cause interest on the Bonds to be subject, dircctly or indtectly, to federal income taxation or to be subject to or
exempted from state income taxatioD, or otlerwise prevent beneficial owners from realizing the full current benefit
of the tax status of such interest. As one example, the Obama Admidstration recently announced a legislative
proposal which, for ta"r years beginning on or after January 1, 2013, generally would limit the exclusion from gross
income of interest on obligations like the Bonds to some extent for taxpayers who are individuals and whose income
is subject to higher marginal income ta,\ rates. Other proposals have been made that could significantly reduce the
benefit of or otherwise affect, the exclusion from gross income of interest on obligations like the Bonds. The
introduction or enactment of any such legislative proposals, clarification of the Code or court decisions may also
affect, perhaps signifrcantly, the market price for, or marketabiiity of, the Bonds. Prospective purchasers of the
Bonds should consult their own tax advisors regarding any pending or proposed federal or state tax legislation,
regulations or litigation, and regarding the impact of funrle legislation, regulations or litigation, as to which Bond
Counsel erpresses no opinion.
The opinion of Bond Counsel is based on current legal authority, covers certain matters not dtectly
addressed by such authorities, and represents Bond Counsel's judgment as to the proper treatment ofthe Bonds for
federal income tax purposes. It is not binding on the Intemal Revenue Service ("IRS") or the courts. Furthermore,
Bond Counsel camot give and has not given any opinion or assurance about the future activities of the City, or
about the effect of future changes in th€ Code, the applicable regulations, the interpretation thereof or the
enforcement thereof by the IRS. The Cityhas covenanted, however, to comply with the requlements ofthe Code.
Bond Counsel's engagement with respect to the Bonds ends with the issuance of the Bonds, and, unless
separately engaged, Bond Counsel is not obligated to defend the City or the owners regarding the ta,\-exempt status
of the Bonds in the event of an audit examination by the IRS. Under curent procedures, parties other thatr the City
and its appointed counsel, including the owners, would have little, if any, right to participate in the audit
examination process. Moreover, because achieving judicial review in connection with an audit examination of tax-
exempt bonds is difficult, obtaining an independent review of IRS positions rrith which the City legitimately
disagrees, may not be practicable. Any action of the IRS, including but nol limited to selection of the Bonds for
audit, or the course or result of such audit, or an audit ofbonds presenting similar tax issues may affect the market
price for, or the marketability ol the Bonds, and may cause the City or orvners to incur significant expense.
Legal Matters
The vatidity of the Bonds and certain other legal matters are subject to the approving opinion of Orrick,
Herrington & Sutcliffe LLP, Bond Counsel. Certain legal matters will be passed upon for the Authority and the City
by the City Attomey. The proposed form of Opinion ofBond Counsel is set forth in APPENDIX E hereto (subject
to the matters discussed under "Tax Matters" above). Bond Counsel undertakes no responsibility for the accuracy,
completeness or faimess of this Official Statement. Certain legal matters will be passed upon for the Underwriter by
Stradling Yocca Ca son & Rauth, A Professional Corporation, as counsel to the Underwriter.
Underrvriting
The Bonds will be purchased by Stifel, Nicolaus & Company, Incorporated, as Underwfiter (the
"Underwriter") under a Bond Purchase Agreement among the Cit, t}re Authodty and the Under*riter (the
"Purchase Contract") pursuant to which the Underwriter for the Bonds has agreed to purchase the Bonds from the
Authority at an aggregate purchase price of $_ (principal amount of the Bonds plus net original issue
1l
prenuum of$less au underwriter's discount of$The Purchase Contract relating to the
Bonds provides that the Underwriter will purchase all of the Bonds if any are purchased. The obligation of the
Underwriter to make such puchase is subject to certain conditions in the Purchase Contract.
Verification of Mathematical Accuracy
Upon delivery of the Bonds,(the 'Verification Agent") will deliver a report stating that
it has reviewed and conhrmed the mathematical accuracy of certain computations relating to adequacy of federal
securities to pay when due the palments ofprincipal and interest to redeem or pay at maturity the Refunded Bonds.
Such examination will be based solely upon the assumptions and the iniormation supplied by the underwriters on
behalf of the Authority. The Verification Agent will resrict its procedures to examining the arithmetical accuracy
of certain computations and wi[[ not make any study or evaluation of the assumptions and information upon which
the computations are based, and accordingly, will not express an opinion on the data used, the reasonableness olthe
assumptions, or the achievability of the forecasted outcome.
Continuing Disclosure
The City has covenanted for the benefrt of Bond Owners and beneficial owners of the Bonds to provide
certain financial information and operating data relating to the City by not later than seven months following the end
of the City's fiscal year (which shall be February I of each year, so long as the City's fiscal year ends on June 30)
(the 'Annual Report"), commencing with the r€port for the fiscal year June 30, 2015, and to provide notices of the
occurrence of certain enumerated events, if material. The Annual Report will be filed by the City or by the Trustee
on behalf of the City with the Municipal Securities Rulemaking Board's ("MSRB") EMMA system. The notices of
certain enumerated events will be filed by the City or by the Trustee on behalf of the City with the MSRB's EMMA
system. The specific nature of the information to be contained in the Annual Repod or the notices of material events
is summarized below under the caption 'APPENDD( D - FORM OF CONTINT ING DISCLOSITRE
CERTIFICATE." These covenants have been made in order to assist the Underrriters in complying with S.E.C.
Rule 15c2-12 (b) (5). The City has not failed during the previous five years to comply in all material respects with
any preyious undertaking under such Rule.
Financial Statements
The City's financial statements for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2015, included in Appendix B hereto,
have been audited by Brown Armstrong, independent auditors, as stated in their r€port appearing in Appendix B
hereto. Brown Armslrong has not consented to the inclusion of its report as Appendix B and has not undertaken to
update its report or to take any action intended or likely to elicit information concerning the accuracy, completeness
or faimess of the statements made in this Offrcial Statement, and no opinion is expressed by Brown Armstrong with
respect to any event subsequent to its report dated January 7, 2016,

-O uf***.aa.org. The informatio=n contaitred in such websites is not incorporated by reference herein.
Purchases of Bonds under the DTc system must be made by or through Direct Participants, which will
receive a credit for the Bonds on DTC's records. The ownership interest of each acnral puchaser of each Bond
(,.Beneficial Owner',) is in hlrn to be recorded on the Direct and Indtect Participants' records. Beneficial Owners
iiil not ."""iu" rwiiten confirmation from DTC of their purchase. Beneficial Owners are, however, expected to
receive written confirmations providing details of the transaction, as well as periodic statements of their holdings,
from the Direct or Indtect participant tirough which the Beneficial Owner entered into the transaction. Transfers of
o*ne.rrlip interests in the Bonds are to b-e accomplished by entries made on the books of Diect and Indilect
fu.ti"ipuott u"ting on behalf of Beneficial Owners. Beneficial Owners will not receive certificates representing
their ownership irterese in Botlds, except in the event that use of the book-entry system for the Bonds is
discontinued.
To facilitate subsequent transfers, all Bonds deposited by Direct Participants with DTC are registered in the
name of DTC's pannership nominee, Cede & Co., oi such other name as may be requested by an-authorized
representarive of bfC. m" deposit of Bonds with DTC and their registration in the name of Cede & Co' or such

Conveyance of notices and other comrnunications by DTC to Direct Participants, by Direct Participants to
hdircct Participants, and by Dlect Participants and IndLect Participants to Beoeficial Ownen will be governed by
arrangemonts among them, subject to any statutory or regulatory requirements as may be in effect from time to time.
Beneficial Owners of Bonds may wish to take certain steps to augm€nt the transmission to them of notices of
significant events with respect to the Bonds, such as redemptions, tenders, defaults and proposed amendments to the
bond documents. For example, Beneltcial Owners of Bonds may wish to ascertain thaithi nominee holling Bonds
for their benefit has agreed to obtain and tmnsmit notices to Benehcial Owners. In the altemative, Beneficial
Ownen may wish to provide thei names and addresses to the registrar and request that copies of notices be
provided dhectly to them.
Redemption notices shall be sent to DTC. If less than all of the Bonds within a maturity are being
redeemed, DTC's practice is 1o determine by lot the amount of interest ofeach Direct Pafiicipant in such maturity to
be redeemed.
Neither DTC nor Cede & Co. (nor any other DTC nominee) will consent or vote with respect to lhe Bonds
unless authorized by a Direct Participant in accordance with DTC's Procedures. Under its usual procedures, DTC
mails an omnibus proxy (the "Onnibus Proxy'') to the City as soon as possible after the record Oaie. ttre OmniUus
Proxy assigns Cede & Co.'s coosenting or voting rights to those Direct ianicipants to whose accounts the Bonds are
credited on the record date (identified in a listing attached to the Omnilus proxry.
- Principal and interest payments on the Bonds will be made to Cede & Co., or such other nominee as may
be requested by an authorized representative ofDTC. DTC's practice is to credit Direct Participants' accounm uponDTC's receipt of funds and corresponding detail information from the Authority or the Trustee, on payable dates in
accordance with their respective holdings shown on DTC's records. Payrnents by Participants to Ben#cial Ownerswill be governed by standing instructions and customary practices, as is the case with securities held for the accounts
ofcustomers in bearer form or registered in "street name," and will be the responsibility ofsuch panicipant and notofDTC, the Trustee, or the Authority, subject to any statutory or r€gulatory iequirements as may be in effect from
tim€ to time. Payment of principal and interest to Cede & Co. (or iuch other norninee as may 6e requested by anauthorized representative of DTC) is the responsibility of the Authority or the Trustee, disbunement of suchpayments to Direct Participants will be the responsibility of DTC, and disbursement of such paymeots to the
Beneficial Owners will be the responsibility ofDtect and Indtecl participants.
DTC may discontinue providing is services as securities depository with respect to the Bonds at any time
by giving reasonable notice to the Authority or the Trustee, or the Authority or City may decide to discontinue useof the system of book-entry transfers through DTC. Under such circumstances, in the event that a successor
securities depository is not obtained, Bond certificates are required to be printed and delivered in accordance with
the provisions set fonh in the Trust Agreement.
other nominee do not effect any change in beneficial ownership. DTC has no knowledge of the actual Beneficial
Owners of the Bonds; DTC's records reflect only the identity of the Direct Participants to whose accounts such
Bouds are credited, which may or may not be the Beneficial Omen. The Dtect and Indirect participants will
remain responsible for keeping account of their holdings on behalf of their customers.
