SECTION II - GENERAL INFORMATION a. Introduction On March 16, 2020, the Burlingame City Council adopted a resolution declaring its intent to transition from at -large to by -district Councilmember elections. (See the March 16, 2020 Staff Report in Attachment 1). Specifically, the Resolution: • Declared the City Council's intent to make the transition to by -district elections before the next scheduled City Council election, scheduled for November 2022. • Expressed the City Council's intent to review and analyze 2020 Census data, anticipated to arrive in early 2021, before approving any proposed districts. • Authorized and directed the City Attorney to negotiate and execute a tolling agreement with Shenkman & Hughes to protect the City from California Voting Rights Action litigation during the transition. • Authorized and directed the City Manager and City Attorney to pursue the hiring of a demographer and any other consultants necessary to assist in the transition. • Directed that adequate funds be allocated to cover costs of the demographer and other expert assistance necessary to effectuate this direction. b. Government A California general law city incorporated in 1908, Burlingame operates under the Council - Manager form of government. Currently, a five -member City Council is elected at -large to four-year terms and serves as the board of directors. (The three Councilmembers elected in 2017 and the two Councilmembers elected in 2019 are serving five-year terms so that the City can comply with a new state law requiring Council elections in even -numbered years.) The Council annually selects a Mayor and Vice Mayor from its members. The City Council appoints a City Manager, who serves as the chief executive officer and is responsible for all municipal functions. The City Council also appoints a City Attorney to serve as chief legal advisor for the governing body and the administration. The City Manager appoints the City Clerk. City of Burlingame — Municipal Redistricting Services RFP Page 3 c. Community Background The City of Burlingame is located on the San Francisco Peninsula, about three miles south of San Francisco International Airport. The City has an incorporated area of approximately six square miles (4.41 square miles of land). Based upon July 1, 2019 census.gov data: • Burlingame has a population of approximately 30,889 60% are considered "white", 25% "Asian", and 12.4% Hispanic or Latino • 47.3% live in owner occupied housing Burlingame boasts two well-known downtown districts. Four major highways border or pass through the city, including U.S. Highway 101, Interstate 280, State Route 82, and State Route 35. The city is bisected by Caltrain, the seventh largest commuter rail system in the country. Burlingame's eastern region includes 12 major hotels, restaurants, the Bayfront, parks, and commercial and industrial businesses. The western region includes a vast residential area, downtown business districts, and schools. d. Planned Creation of a New Neighborhood In 2020, the City hired a Consultant to develop a new neighborhood of medium- and high - density residential and creative live/work units and support uses for the northern portion of the City known as the Rollins Road corridor. Currently, the Rollins Road industrial corridor is a major employment base in Burlingame. This area largely has supported light manufacturing businesses, warehousing, auto repair shops, wholesale activities, and commercial recreation facilities. The City envisions creation of a completely new neighborhood, where residents and creative businesses have ready access to transit, supportive commercial businesses, and public and private open space amenities. Such housing will include workforce housing, thus meeting the needs of all income levels in Burlingame. Streetscape improvements with the new neighborhood will emphasize a pedestrian and bicycle focus, while still accommodating industrial related traffic through to Millbrae Avenue. Based upon the City's General Plan and planned private development in this area, the City estimates up to 2,300 new housing units will be developed in this new neighborhood in the coming decade. SECTION III — SCOPE OF WORK In order to manage the transition from an at -large election system to a by -district election system, in which the City would be divided into geographical districts of substantially equal City of Burlingame — Municipal Redistricting Services RFP Page 4 populations with each district electing a single council candidate who resides within its boundary, the Contractor must: • Conform to all relevant laws, transition processes and requirements as defined by the California Voting Rights Act of 2001, CA Elections Code Sections 10010, 14025, 14026- 14032, CA Assembly Bill No. 849, and CA Government Code Sections 34870-34886; • Use 2020 federal census data; and, • Consider the impact of the development of a new neighborhood defined by the Rollins Road Specific Plan.

Redistricting Partners is a specialized firm that conducts services for organizations and local governments ranging from racially polarized voting analysis, conversion of elections from at -large to districted under the California Voting Rights Act, and traditional redistricting, including cities of Napa, Davis and Santa Ana, and performing the 2011 commissioner -based redistricting for the Los Angeles Unified School District, which encompasses 4.8 million residents and 26 cities. We were just selected by the City of Long Beach to perform their redistricting with their first independent commission in 2021. As will be seen throughout this proposal, we have the experience and knowledge to assist the city staff and council in every step of the coming redistricting, from community engagement, data gathering, line drawing, map presentation and all other technical aspects of the work. Redistricting Partners affirms that the terms within this proposal will remain in effect for 90 days following September 9, 2020. From the principal consultants on the project to our newest staff, we each view this as a collaborative process with the staff and supervisors, with a shared goal of a high -quality, fair, open and transparent redistricting process, and we look forward to working with you. Sincerely, Paul Mitchell Owner, Redistricting Partners 1007 7th St, 4th Floor, Sacramento, California 95814 1 916-612-8686 1 Paul@RedistrictingPartners.com Page 12 Section 1. Experience and Qualifications This proposal is inclusive of both the broad scope of the City of Burlingame redistricting process, and the detailed, technical work of redistricting. The following goes through each individual element in the scope of work outlined in the RFP. 1.1 History and Experience Redistricting Partners is well prepared to assist the city in the decennial redistricting process, including working with existing state and federal voting rights act laws, new California statutes on redistricting for counties and utilizing traditional redistricting criteria, borne out of state and local laws, caselaw, and best practices, in order to facilitate the process in an open and transparent manner. Redistricting Partners is also well versed in the Fair Maps Act and its implications for the redistricting process, as we have incorporated elements of this Act with the City of Napa and City of Davis during their 2020 CVRA Conversion efforts. This includes drawing districts without consideration of incumbents or candidates, and without advantage to any political party. As a firm, and individuals, we have successfully conducted dozens of redistricting projects, large and small, and worked to ensure our work product always complied with state and federal voting rights laws. We work closely with legal counsel and outside law firms regularly in order to ensure our redistricting work follows state and federal laws. In fact, one of our recommendations comes from an attorney with whom we have completed several redistricting and racially polarized voting contracts. The Redistricting Partners staff have significant experience in helping city managers, other local agency staff, redistricting commissioners, and local elected officials, who are most often in charge of local redistricting, become proficient in the traditional criteria used in redistricting and the technical aspects of understanding the data and line drawing. Under this proposal we will ensure there are redistricting staff available for all City of Burlingame meetings, virtually or in -person, depending on the state of the COVID pandemic, and we will be on hand for all redistricting functions, including public and council meetings as required. Page 13 REDISTRICTING ST PARTNERS Redistricting Partners has had a decade of work drawing district boundaries for a variety of municipalities. As can be seen throughout this proposal we have drawn districts for the Los Angeles Unified School District, Cities of of Santa Ana, Napa, Davis and Elk Grove, to name just a handful. The most important factor that comes from working in each of these very different jurisdictions throughout the state is the experience drawing areas with multiple communities of interest, as we see in the City of Burlingame. This includes being able to utilize census data and other sources to identify communities of interest ranging from protected classes of ethnic, religious or national origin minorities, to populations of students and elderly, renters and homeowners, neighborhoods, and others. Our firm has significant redistricting experience, including hundreds of presentations before counties, city councils, and the community. Redistricting Partners Founder Paul Mitchell and other Redistricting Partners staff have been required to present repeatedly on elections and redistricting before State Assembly and Senate committees, the Los Angeles City Council, and other agencies. This has included facilitating conversations about communities of interest, often between opposing groups. The redistricting process almost always involves tradeoffs. The need to create population equality, maintain contiguity and compactness, and preserve communities of interest creates a natural push and pull between each of these, often competing, factors. And these have human consequences - this could range from the individual resident who wants to know why a line is cutting across her street to the dozens of organizations and stakeholders that might be united against a specific part of a redistricting plan. As a firm, Redistricting Partners has been able to engage with groups respectfully, listen to communities, and provide objective advice and decision -making tools to those voting on the district boundaries.

The company, with the same core of individuals on staff, has worked on decennial redistricting, racially polarized voting analysis, California Voting Rights Act (CVRA) implementation, and mid -decade redistricting work, primarily in California, for the past decade, with GIS and political experience that goes back more than 20 years. Redistricting Partners was formed in 2011, with a focus on engaging in the statewide redistricting process under the new California Redistricting Commission. This work quickly moved into local municipal redistricting, starting with a master contract with the Community College League of California for advising and implementing transitions from at -large election systems to districted election systems for dozens of community college districts throughout the state. Through the last decade, much of our work has been with cities, community college districts, school boards and many other kinds of agencies, such as hospital districts, water boards and other special districts. This work has been across the state - including very large agencies spanning multiple counties, counties requiring preclearance under the Section 5 of the Voting Rights Act (when it was operative), to extremely small jurisdictions with barely enough population to make for functioning districted systems. Our work has allowed us to develop experience in all facets of redistricting, from working with a redistricting commission at the Los Angeles Unified School District, to Page /5 developing outreach in communities across the state with diverse ethnic populations, engaging the public through workshops and mass communication, working with datasets common to redistricting, such as the decennial census files and the American Community Survey, and uncommon databases, such as student transportation data, mapping educational needs, healthcare services and creating datasets for different populations of farmers. Redistricting Partners places a strong emphasis on managing contracts and projects from before contracts are signed and executed. Staff are assigned specific roles on each project, hold regular staff meetings with updates, and maintain internal systems in order to ensure that work is completed and that all staff are aware of project status in order to be able to assist if necessary. Having worked on the 2010 cycle provides a solid base of communication for the 2020 cycle, and a familiarity with the flow of projects within the redistricting process. As a redistricting firm rooted in our values, we have never participated in a redistricting that sought to disenfranchise or dilute the voting power of their minority populations, and Redistricting Partners has never been a subject of a voting rights act claim or lawsuit. One excellent case study can be found in the city of Davis. We were hired by the City Manager and came in with a plan that was seen by the council and the public as a fair, open, and community -oriented process. Our charge was to follow the "Safe Harbor" rules within the California Voting Rights Act, but we were able to get the council and staff to agree to go above and beyond those requirements. In addition to the required meetings, we conducted two workshops over a weekend, helped the staff do outreach at the local farmers market, and communicated with neighborhood associations, students, and other engaged participants at council meetings. One example of the media coverage from this districting was in the local Davis Enterprise, https://www.davisenterprise.com/local-news/city-council-to-choose-from- 10-draft-district-maps/. This story had a section titled "Keeping it Honest" in which they stressed the fact that our work did not consider incumbency as one of the communities of interest - something that is now required under California law for city and county redistricting. From this article: Keeping It Honest Page 16 According to city staff, Mitchell specifically asked not to be told where current council members live before drawing the maps. The result: In all four of the five -district maps Mitchell created, current council members end up in the same district. Specifically, in options 1, 2 and 3, Lee and Frerichs would be in the same district, while Option 4 has Arnold and Lee in the same district. In all of those five -district maps, Partida and Carson are alone in their districts. This project was an excellent example of the Redistricting Partners staff working with city staff and elected officials on a process that was fair, non -partisan, depoliticized, and will ultimately better serve the community. For more information regarding the City of Davis, please see Attachment A. Full presentations by Mitchell, and responses to questions from the council, have been preserved online here: https://www.ci!yofdavis.org/city-hall/city- clerk/ elections/ district -elections/ meetings Another example of the work done by Redistricting Partners that can help in the evaluation of our ability to conduct a redistricting effort during the COVID-era would be in the City of Napa, where we were required because of stay-at-home orders to complete the redistricting process, including community engagement, in an online setting. This redistricting was successful in implementing a plan that was drawn by a member of the public in a public outreach hearing, with some small amendments that were made during public hearings online. These hearings can be viewed on their website at: https:/ /www.cilyofnapa.org/892/District-Elections We believe this experience in Napa can be helpful in the likelihood that we will be conducting this redistricting during a period in which at least some meetings will need to be held online, or with online options for members of the public who feel it unsafe to attend in person. Page /7 Client References Los Angeles Unified School District Project Description: A commission -driven redistricting of district boundaries for the second largest school district in the country. The LAUSD commission was established by an appointment process from the school board and approved by the Los Angeles City Council. The commission is convened every 10 years, per the City of Los Angeles Charter, with the 15 commissioners appointed by the City and LAUSD. Two Commissions were created, one that draws the city lines and another that draws the school district. Both sets of lines must be approved by the City. This created a less than perfect process, as we were tasked to work with the School District Commission to draw the school district lines knowing that final approval would come from the LA City Council. The School District Commission started its efforts by focusing on community outreach. Working with the Executive Director, 13 public hearings were held throughout Los Angeles, one in nearly each City Council District. Most were held in high school gyms or auditoriums. Public participation was extensive, with a diverse group testifying about their communities of interest. Much of the testimony focused on keeping the well -established neighborhoods together, using freeways and major streets as dividing lines, keeping high school attendance lines within a district, and the need to create districts that would allow for Latinos to have a better chance to elect their candidate of choice. There was some discussion regarding keeping the districts as similar as possible to the 2000 lines and creating districts that reflected the growing Latino demographic advantage throughout the district. The final district lines and redistricting report were supported by 12 of the 15 commissioners. The 3 commissioners that did not support the final district lines submitted a dissenting report. As the consultants to the entire commission we were responsible for coordinating all the data and reports in order to present them to the City Council. The final lines approved by the commission were then reviewed by the City Council's Rules and Elections Committee, which approved them and passed them over to the full City Council, which ratified the lines. The commission process illustrated the ability of 15 people from different backgrounds to work together on a very complicated problem and find common ground. Although the final vote was not unanimous, most of the process was consensus driven and people found fair compromises along the way. Page 18 Members of this redistricting are available as references.

We were hired to draw new district boundaries - creating the first Vietnamese seat in the city's history, and converting the city to an election system in which each district elects one councilmember, a conversion from a system in which councilmembers lived in districts, but were voted on district -wide. The process included several televised presentations before the City Council which can be seen online. These were followed by robust engagement by the City Council Members and the public. The full project also included several community of interest workshops around the City. Within this process we were able to determine several of the factors that ultimately drove the final map creation. The City also invested in online mapping software. The redistricting process, however, was done on a compressed timeline under the "safe harbor" provisions of the California Voting Rights Act, meaning that the entire process had to be completed under a settlement with the plaintiffs. This, along with the lack of training from the vendor, hampered the ability of the online mapping system to provide much significant input.

Page 19 Unlike an established city or county, a community service district has a boundary that is not recognized by the US Census - therefore the process is instantly more challenging as the redistricting process has to first establish the actual district boundaries. As we built this dataset, we also, at the direction of the board, constructed boundaries for the park services and facilities, local fire service, overlapping city and unincorporated areas and other geographies. In addition to the geographic elements of the plan, we worked with board input and public testimony regarding communities of interest and developed the data around the ethnic populations, using data such as where voters obtain Spanish language ballots to supplement our understanding of this population. We also received input on the LGBTQ community and other communities of interest that should be considered in the map drawing process. We attended board meetings to receive both direct public insight, and direction from board members and took guidance from legal counsel and board members to create a variety of potential district boundaries. Under a compressed timeline we worked directly with select, highly engaged members of the public to craft additional map options for board review. By the end of the process we had performed several rounds of reviews and revisions with the board, prepared deliveries to District officials in concert with district staff and managed implementation with district staff, up to and including technical assistance.

Page 113 REDISTRICTING VB PARTNERS Section 3. Work Plan/Technical Approach Redistricting Partners will attend all meetings and facilitate the process of establishing the workplan and timeline for creating new district boundaries for the City of Burlingame. One clear issue out of our control is the possible extension of the Census and the changing timelines due to the release of the within the Public Law 94-171 Redistricting Data File (PL 94-171). Normally, this dataset is normally released in California by March 31s' each year after the census. However, due to the COVID-19 pandemic and delays in the census, the timing of the release of the PL 94-171 is not known at this time and could be as late as July 31s' of 2021. It is our recommendation that the City prepare now as if the data will be released by March 31st, given that a stall of the legislation in the US Senate could still require the data to be released by that date. As we learn more about any delay in the data, potentially to as late as July 31, 2021, we can work with the city and council members to adjust these dates. If the data does come later in the summer, the City would likely benefit from having some initial outreach hearings prior to the data being released in order to ensure that a delay in the data does not constrict your timeline for completing the redistricting. Below is a suggested timeline with an expectation of a March 31st Census release: lanuary 2021: Initial Outreach Hearing - Presentation from Redistricting Partners and public input on communities of interest. February 2021: Second Outreach Hearing - Duplicate presentation from January, more opportunity for pre -map public input on communities of interest. Presentation from the public of any maps identifying communities, discussion of preferences of neighborhoods, geographic or other city features that should be considered in drawing of public plans. March 2021 Optional Community Meeting to show mapping tools. Training for the public on how to submit their own map. Post -Census Release Meeting 1: Release of first draft maps 7 days prior to hearing. Hearing with public input on draft plans with any input from council or public on proposed changes. Post -Census Release Meeting_2: Release of any second draft or revised maps 7 days prior to hearing. Hearing with public and council input with goal of having Page 114 council select a single map that will be the final map to go to a vote at the final hearing. Final Hearing: Final map released with any changes 7 days prior to the hearing. Public council meeting with final Up/Down vote on the plan as it was made public without any substantive changes.' This timeline is consistent with the Fair Maps Act which emphasizes a strong engagement with the public and identification of communities of interest prior to the drawing of potential district lines. This engagement with the community around areas of common interest prior to the release of potential maps allows for a more robust participation with the public. We have found that the discussions around community of interest can come to an end, or shift dramatically, once a line is introduced. As community members are engaged, we will expect to have a robust process of engaging the public in both using mapping and data to develop community of interest testimony and the drawing of actual district maps. While it is not discussed in the RFP we will suggest that the City include an online line - drawing software for the public to utilize for this process. Generally, we recommend or even prefer in -person mapping options, however in this climate we would likely find that participation in these kind of in -person activities would be problematic. For the past decade we have been working with staff at Caliper Corporation and have been engaged with them on implementation of their new Maptitude Online Redistricting program to facilitate public mapping of district options. With this or another public software we should be able to engage the public, conduct training on the system, and ultimately receive valuable input on potential lines. Additionally, we can establish a way for the public to submit comments on their communities of interest either through descriptive means, or by using physical drawings submitted to the city. We recommend the city provide a way for the public to easily email, mail, or drop off potential mapping plans throughout the redistricting process. Whether done online or by hand, all mapping options submitted by the public have 1 Non -substantive changes could be something like adjusting a census block boundary to align to a precinct in a way that does not change the population of any of the districts, but merely allows the boundaries to work better for elections administrators. Page /15 value. A map does not have to be perfect to tell a story about how a member of the public views their community, and how they would choose to make tradeoffs between the different factors in redistricting. What is important is that residents have an opportunity to tell their story about their city and we provide the tools and opportunities to do this. Public engagement, if successful, also needs to be organized and analyzed in order to inform the city and their line drawing process. Every plan that is submitted, whether through the online system, or drawn on a napkin, will become a part of the official input. Each will be logged, given a number, be analyzed for measures like population equality and reproduced in the mapping software so they can be understood by the same metrics as any other plan. By treating every plan equally, we are also able to provide the City of Burlingame with the tools to discuss the pros and cons of different mapping options. This includes being able to work to incorporate elements of public plans or being able to communicate to the public why a plan does not meet the criteria set forth in state or federal law. The mapping alternatives will be produced and stored in a way that the council, or members of the public can view in one of three ways: 1) PDF Maps - these are user friendly and print, generally on an 8.5x11 format. They don't provide street -level detail but can be helpful in understanding the general outlines of district plans. 2) Online / Google Maps - these are online maps which allow the viewer to zoom in on a map, search for an address, or bring up features, like streets and satellite images, to better understand where district lines land. 3) GIS files - shapefiles and data that can be used by GIS experts, organizations with technical skills who will want to import the raw data into their own systems for analysis. As we have done in other redistrictings, the final plan will be presented to the City staff and the council with a narrative, describing the source of the map, how it was developed, the communities of interest that were considered in the construction of each district, and what tradeoffs were considered as the City of Burlingame sought to equitably create the election district boundaries. After completion of the redistricting process we work with the County Registrar and their elections staff to ensure all relevant data on the jurisdiction lines are submitted and incorporated for the next election.

This is a critical piece of the redistricting process. For the purposes of this proposal, we would recommend a firm, like Imprenta, which has significant experience working with the Asian Pacific Islander community and has done specific outreach around the US Census and other governmental engagement with the public. It would be our suggestion that the city work with Imprenta to come up with a scope of work that will allow them to supplement your own internal capacity for in -language outreach, community engagement, and communication regarding the redistricting process.

Page 120 Attachment A —Referenced Documents enterprise YOLO COUNTY NEWS The citys demographer has added seven -district maps to the five -district versions already proposed for future City Council elections. All 10 maps, as well as demographic data for each, can be viewed at https://www.cityofdavis.org/districts. Ur.,d NMS City council to choose from 10 draft district maps By Anne Ternus-Bellamy The Davis City Council will have a total of 10 draft maps to choose from next week as they prepare to transition the council to district elections, and half of those maps would land current council members in the same district. Demographer Paul Mitchell of Redistricting Partners created five additional draft maps following feedback received at last week's City Council meeting, including one new five -district map and four new seven -district maps. All told, four of the maps have five districts and six of the maps have seven districts. Under district elections, voters in each district in the city will elect a resident of that district to the City Council, unlike the current system where all council members are elected by the community at large. Current Council members Dan Carson and will Arnold said during last week's meeting that they favor five districts while Mayor Pro Tem Gloria Partida and Councilman Lucas Frerichs said they prefer seven. Without tipping his hand, Mayor Brett Lee noted that the upcoming meeting, when a final decision will be made, will be a bit of a cliffhanger. Also to be determined Tuesday: sequencing for upcoming elections — specifically, which council seats will be up for election in November 2020 and which in 2022. City staff have prepared sequencing proposals for each of the 10 maps, all of which would ensure the East Davis and west Davis districts that Partida and Carson reside in would not be on the ballot until 2022. Partida and Carson were both elected in 2018 and would not have been up for re-election until 2022 under at -large elections, unlike Arnold, Frerichs and Lee, all of whom would have been up for re-election in March 2020 had the council not voted to switch tc district elections. Prior to that vote, Lee and Frerichs said they planned to seek re-election while Arnold had not announced his intentions. The final map the council chooses Tuesday will determine whether any of them will end up in the same district and have to run against each other. Page 121 Keeping it honest According to city staff, Mitchell specifically asked not to be told where current council members live before drawing the maps. The result: in all four of the five -district maps Mitchell created, current council members end up in the same district. Specifically, in options 1, 2 and 3, Lee and Frerichs would be in the same district, while Option 4 has Arnold and Lee in the same district. In all of those five -district maps, Partida and Carson are alone in their districts. The seven -district options provide more breathing room to current council members. All current council members would be in separate districts in every map but one — Arnold and Lee would be in the same district in Option 5. Meanwhile, the only challenger to come forward so far — Dillan Horton —would be in the same district as Arnold in all but one map — the seven -district, Option 5 map — and share the same district as both Arnold and Lee in the five - district, Option 4 map. It remains to be seen whether the impetus for switching to district elections — a legal threat under the California Voting Rights Act claiming the city's at -large elections result in racially polarized voting — will result in any changes. when woodland attorney and former Yolo County supervisor Matt Rexroad notified the city he had two potential plaintiffs prepared to sue the city if it did not switch to district elections, he cited data showing racially polarized voting in Davis. 'Polarized' Racially polarized voting is defined as voting in which there is a difference "in the choice of candidates or other electoral choices that are preferred by voters in a protected class (a group of voters who are members of a race, color or language minority) and in the choice of candidates and electoral choices that are preferred by voters in the rest of the electorate." Rexroad contended that recent election data shows Latino candidates have performed better in Davis precincts with higher percentages of Latino voters and less well in precincts with lower percentages. Similarly, he said, white candidates perform better in Davis precincts with a higher percentage of white voters. "Voting within Davis is racially polarized, which has resulted in minority vote dilution," Rexroad said at the time. "Davis' minority voters have not had proper representation on the City Council because of the at -large election system. Thus Davis at -large elections violate the California Voting Rights Act." But under the draft maps the council will choose from on Tuesday, just one district in one of the 10 maps would not have a majority white population. District 2 in the seven -district, Option 5 map, based on estimated population from the American Community Survey, would be 49 percent white; 33 percent Asian; and 16 percent Latino. All other districts in all other maps would be majority white. Currently the five -member Davis City Council has one Latina member (Partida) and one Asian -American member (Lee) while the city's demographic data from 2015 shows Latinos comprised 13.4 percent of the city's population and Asians 21.7 percent. Additionally, Partida and Lee were the top vote -getters citywide in their respective elections. And while district elections may or may not change change the racial make-up of the council, members of the public who spoke during last week's council meeting hope they do give students and renters a seat on the council. For that reason, a number of students at the meeting urged the council to adopt a seven -district map where renters would make up a super majority (between 70 and 80 percent) in some of those districts. However, as several people noted during the discussion last week, students and renters tend to move more frequently than homeowners. And under the law, any elected council members who move to another district within the city while in office would have to relinquish their seats. At last week's meeting, council members were also urged to keep historic neighborhoods intact. Several residents of Old East Davis noted that their neighborhood was divided among districts in the early draft maps. That concern was addressed in the new maps published this week. All 10 maps, as well as demographic data for each, can be viewed at https://www.cityofdavis.org/city-hall/city- clerk/elections/district-elections Page 122 Members of the public can weigh in on the maps by emailing comments to districts@cityofdavis.org or doing so in person at the Davis Farmers Market on Saturday — where the city will have a table from 10 a.m. to noon — or at Tuesday's City Council meeting. Following a public hearing at that meeting, the City Council will choose a district map that will be used for the November 2020 election. However, the city will have to go through the process again following the election, with results from the 2020 Census requiring a redistricting process that will likely alter district lines before the 2022 election.

Work Plan/Technical Approach" of Consultant's proposal dated September 9, 2020, Consultant shall: • Staff the project with Lead Personnel & Project Manager, Paul Mitchell; Supporting Personnel, Kimi Shigetani; Support Personnel, Jacob Thompson -Fisher; and, Support Staff, Saishruti Adusumilli — • Attend all meetings and facilitate the process of establishing the work plan and timeline for creating new district boundaries for the City of Burlingame upon release of the Public Law 94-171 Redistricting Data File (PL 94-171). The work plan will at least include two initial outreach hearings with a presentation from Consultant and public input on communities of interest, a community meeting to show mapping tools and train the public on how to submit their own map; and, two post -census release meetings. These meetings will be consistent with the Fair Maps Act which emphasizes a strong engagement with the public and identification of communities of interest prior to the drawing of potential district lines. • Work with the City to prepare as if the Data File will be released by March 31, 2020 and will conduct some initial outreach hearings prior to the data being released in order to ensure that a delay in the data does not constrict the City's goal to complete redistricting prior to the 2022 Election. • Include Caliper online line drawing software for the public to utilize for this process. This includes being able to work to incorporate elements of public plans or being able to communicate to the public why a plan does not meet the criteria set forth in state or federal law. The mapping alternatives will be produced and stored in a way that the council, or members of the public can view in one of three ways: 1) PDF Maps — these are user friendly and print, generally on an 8.5x11 format. They don't provide street -level detail but can be helpful in understanding the general outlines of district plans. 2) Online / Google Maps — these are online maps which allow the viewer to zoom in on a map, search for an address, or bring up features, like streets and satellite images, to better understand where district lines land. 3) GIS files — shapefiles and data that can be used by GIS experts, organizations with technical skills who will want to import the raw data into their own systems for analysis. • Present the final plan to City staff and the City Council with a narrative describing the source of the map, how it was developed, the communities of interest that were considered in the construction of each district, and what tradeoffs were considered as the City of Burlingame sought to equitably create the election district boundaries. • Work with the County Registrar and their elections staff to ensure all relevant data on the jurisdiction lines are submitted and incorporated for the 2022 Election. Per Consultant's revised "Compensation and Pricing" proposal emailed on October 21, 2020, Consultant shall: • Attend staff planning meetings, City of Burlingame hearings, assisting staff in preparation of outreach meetings and reports. • Work with staff on communications strategies and media, if requested. • Create mapping options, evaluation of publicly drawn maps, analysis of Voting Rights Act and compliance with other laws and traditional redistricting criteria. • Oversee all subcontractors at the direction of the City of Burlingame and staff. • Assist the City of Burlingame with final map and council reports. • Implement mapping software and online mapping tool, • Serve as the main point of contact for technical support for city staff, City of Burlingame and the public. • Manage employment of GIS and data analysis software and data management. • Conduct specific outreach to impacted communities, in addition to the regular presentations and outreach • Manage Caliper Corporation, the vendor which will provide Maptitude for Redistricting and Maptitude Online Redistricting for community map drawing, public engagement, online training and technical support. / A� " CERTIFICATE OF LIABILITY INSURANCE DATE (M M/DD/YYYY) 12/16/2020 THIS CERTIFICATE IS ISSUED AS A MATTER OF INFORMATION ONLY AND CONFERS NO RIGHTS UPON THE CERTIFICATE HOLDER.

However, we will have no duty to defend the insured against any "suit' seeking damages for "bodily injury", "property damage" or "personal and advertising injury" to which this insurance does not apply.

The limits of insurance that apply to additional insureds are described in Section D. — Limits Of Insurance. How this insurance applies when other insurance is available to an additional insured is described in the Other Insurance Condition in Section E. — Liability And Medical Expenses General Conditions. No person or organization is an insured with respect to the conduct of any current or past partnership, joint venture or limited liability company that is not shown as a Named Insured in the Declarations. D. LIABILITY AND MEDICAL EXPENSES LIMITS OF INSURANCE 1. The Most We Will Pay The Limits of Insurance shown in the Declarations and the rules below fix the most we will pay regardless of the number of: a. Insureds; b. Claims made or "suits" brought; or c. Persons or organizations making claims or bringing "suits". 2. Aggregate Limits The most we will pay for: a. Damages because of "bodily injury" and "property damage" included in the "products -completed operations hazard" is the Products -Completed Operations Aggregate Limit shown in the Declarations. b. Damages because of all other "bodily injury", "property damage" or "personal and advertising injury", including medical expenses, is the General Aggregate Limit shown in the Declarations. This General Aggregate Limit applies separately to each of your "locations" owned by or rented to you. "Location" means premises involving the same or connecting lots, or premises whose connection is interrupted only by a street, roadway or right-of-way of a railroad. This General Aggregate limit does not apply to "property damage" to premises while rented to you or temporarily occupied by you with permission of the owner, arising out of fire, lightning or explosion. 3. Each Occurrence Limit Subject to 2.a. or 2.b above, whichever applies, the most we will pay for the sum of all damages because of all "bodily injury", "property damage" and medical expenses arising out of any one 'occurrence" is the Liability and Medical Expenses Limit shown in the Declarations. The most we will pay for all medical expenses because of "bodily injury" sustained by any one person is the Medical Expenses Limit shown in the Declarations. 4. Personal And Advertising Injury Limit Subject to 2.b. above, the most we will pay for the sum of all damages because of all "personal and advertising injury" sustained by any one person or organization is the Personal and Advertising Injury Limit shown in the Declarations. 5.

In the case of damage by fire, lightning or explosion, the Damage to Premises Rented To You Limit applies to all damage proximately caused by the same event, whether such damage results from fire, lightning or explosion or any combination of these. 6. How Limits Apply To Additional Insureds The most we will pay on behalf of a person or organization who is an additional insured under this Coverage Part is the lesser of: a. The limits of insurance specified in a written contract, written agreement or permit issued by a state or political subdivision; or b. The Limits of Insurance shown in the Declarations. Such amount shall be a part of and not in addition to the Limits of Insurance shown in the Declarations and described in this Section. Page 14 of 24 Form SS 00 08 04 05 BUSINESS LIABILITY COVERAGE FORM If more than one limit of insurance under this policy and any endorsements attached thereto applies to any claim or "suit", the most we will pay under this policy and the endorsements is the single highest limit of liability of all coverages applicable to such claim or "suit". However, this paragraph does not apply to the Medical Expenses limit set forth in Paragraph 3. above. The Limits of Insurance of this Coverage Part apply separately to each consecutive annual period and to any remaining period of less than 12 months, starting with the beginning of the policy period shown in the Declarations, unless the policy period is extended after issuance for an additional period of less than 12 months. In that case, the additional period will be deemed part of the last preceding period for purposes of determining the Limits of Insurance. E. LIABILITY AND MEDICAL EXPENSES GENERAL CONDITIONS 1. Bankruptcy Bankruptcy or insolvency of the insured or of the insured's estate will not relieve us of our obligations under this Coverage Part. 2. Duties In The Event Of Occurrence, Offense, Claim Or Suit a. Notice Of Occurrence Or Offense You or any additional insured must see to it that we are notified as soon as practicable of an "occurrence" or an offense which may result in a claim. To the extent possible, notice should include: (1) How, when and where the "occurrence" or offense took place; (2) The names and addresses of any injured persons and witnesses; and (3) The nature and location of any injury or damage arising out of the "occurrence" or offense. b. Notice Of Claim If a claim is made or "suit" is brought against any insured, you or any additional insured must: (1) Immediately record the specifics of the claim or "suit" and the date received; and (2) Notify us as soon as practicable. You or any additional insured must see to it that we receive a written notice of the claim or "suit" as soon as practicable. c. Assistance And Cooperation Of The Insured You and any other involved insured must: (1) Immediately send us copies of any demands, notices, summonses or legal papers received in connection with the claim or "suit"; (2) Authorize us to obtain records and other information; (3) Cooperate with us in the investigation, settlement of the claim or defense against the "suit"; and (4) Assist us, upon our request, in the enforcement of any right against any person or organization that may be liable to the insured because of injury or damage to which this insurance may also apply. d. Obligations At The Insured's Own Cost No insured will, except at that insured's own cost, voluntarily make a payment, assume any obligation, or incur any expense, other than for first aid, without our consent. e. Additional Insured's Other Insurance If we cover a claim or "suit" under this Coverage Part that may also be covered by other insurance available to an additional insured, such additional insured must submit such claim or "suit" to the other insurer for defense and indemnity. However, this provision does not apply to the extent that you have agreed in a written contract, written agreement or permit that this insurance is primary and non-contributory with the additional insured's own insurance. f. Knowledge Of An Occurrence, Offense, Claim Or Suit Paragraphs a. and b. apply to you or to any additional insured only when such "occurrence", offense, claim or "suit" is known to: (1) You or any additional insured that is an individual; (2) Any partner, if you or an additional insured is a partnership; (3) Any manager, if you or an additional insured is a limited liability company; (4) Any "executive officer" or insurance manager, if you or an additional insured is a corporation; (5) Any trustee, if you or an additional insured is a trust; or (6) Any elected or appointed official, if you or an additional insured is a political subdivision or public entity. Form SS 00 08 04 05 Page 15 of 24 BUSINESS LIABILITY COVERAGE FORM This Paragraph f. applies separately to you and any additional insured. 3. Financial Responsibility Laws a. When this policy is certified as proof of financial responsibility for the future under the provisions of any motor vehicle financial responsibility law, the insurance provided by the policy for "bodily injury" liability and "property damage" liability will comply with the provisions of the law to the extent of the coverage and limits of insurance required by that law. b. With respect to "mobile equipment" to which this insurance applies, we will provide any liability, uninsured motorists, underinsured motorists, no-fault or other coverage required by any motor vehicle law. We will provide the required limits for those coverages. 4. Legal Action Against Us No person or organization has a right under this Coverage Form: a. To join us as a party or otherwise bring us into a "suit" asking for damages from an insured; or b. To sue us on this Coverage Form unless all of its terms have been fully complied with. A person or organization may sue us to recover on an agreed settlement or on a final judgment against an insured; but we will not be liable for damages that are not payable under the terms of this insurance or that are in excess of the applicable limit of insurance. An agreed settlement means a settlement and release of liability signed by us, the insured and the claimant or the claimant's legal representative. 5. Separation Of Insureds Except with respect to the Limits of Insurance, and any rights or duties specifically assigned in this policy to the first Named Insured, this insurance applies: a. As if each Named Insured were the only Named Insured; and b. Separately to each insured against whom a claim is made or "suit" is brought. 6. Representations a. When You Accept This Policy By accepting this policy, you agree: (1) The statements in the Declarations are accurate and complete; (2) Those statements are based upon representations you made to us; and (3) We have issued this policy in reliance upon your representations. b. Unintentional Failure To Disclose Hazards If unintentionally you should fail to disclose all hazards relating to the conduct of your business at the inception date of this Coverage Part, we shall not deny any coverage under this Coverage Part because of such failure. 7. Other Insurance If other valid and collectible insurance is available for a loss we cover under this Coverage Part, our obligations are limited as follows: a. Primary Insurance This insurance is primary except when b. below applies. If other insurance is also primary, we will share with all that other insurance by the method described in c. below. b. Excess Insurance This insurance is excess over any of the other insurance, whether primary, excess, contingent or on any other basis: (1) Your Work That is Fire, Extended Coverage, Builder's Risk, Installation Risk or similar coverage for "your work"; (2) Premises Rented To You That is fire, lightning or explosion insurance for premises rented to you or temporarily occupied by you with permission of the owner; (3) Tenant Liability That is insurance purchased by you to cover your liability as a tenant for "property damage" to premises rented to you or temporarily occupied by you with permission of the owner; (4) Aircraft, Auto Or Watercraft If the loss arises out of the maintenance or use of aircraft, "autos" or watercraft to the extent not subject to Exclusion g. of Section A. — Coverages. (5) Property Damage To Borrowed Equipment Or Use Of Elevators If the loss arises out of "property damage" to borrowed equipment or the use of elevators to the extent not subject to Exclusion k. of Section A. — Coverages. Page 16 of 24 Form SS 00 08 04 05 BUSINESS LIABILITY COVERAGE FORM (6) When You Are Added As An Additional Insured To Other Insurance That is other insurance available to you covering liability for damages arising out of the premises or operations, or products and completed operations, for which you have been added as an additional insured by that insurance; or (7) When You Add Others As An Additional Insured To This Insurance That is other insurance available to an additional insured. However, the following provisions apply to other insurance available to any person or organization who is an additional insured under this Coverage Part: (a) Primary Insurance When Required By Contract This insurance is primary if you have agreed in a written contract, written agreement or permit that this insurance be primary. If other insurance is also primary, we will share with all that other insurance by the method described in c. below. (b) Primary And Non -Contributory To Other Insurance When Required By Contract If you have agreed in a written contract, written agreement or permit that this insurance is primary and non-contributory with the additional insured's own insurance, this insurance is primary and we will not seek contribution from that other insurance. Paragraphs (a) and (b) do not apply to other insurance to which the additional insured has been added as an additional insured. When this insurance is excess, we will have no duty under this Coverage Part to defend the insured against any "suit" if any other insurer has a duty to defend the insured against that "suit". If no other insurer defends, we will undertake to do so, but we will be entitled to the insured's rights against all those other insurers. When this insurance is excess over other insurance, we will pay only our share of the amount of the loss, if any, that exceeds the sum of: (1) The total amount that all such other insurance would pay for the loss in the absence of this insurance; and (2) The total of all deductible and self - insured amounts under all that other insurance. We will share the remaining loss, if any, with any other insurance that is not described in this Excess Insurance provision and was not bought specifically to apply in excess of the Limits of Insurance shown in the Declarations of this Coverage Part. c. Method Of Sharing If all the other insurance permits contribution by equal shares, we will follow this method also. Under this approach, each insurer contributes equal amounts until it has paid its applicable limit of insurance or none of the loss remains, whichever comes first. If any of the other insurance does not permit contribution by equal shares, we will contribute by limits. Under this method, each insurer's share is based on the ratio of its applicable limit of insurance to the total applicable limits of insurance of all insurers. 8. Transfer Of Rights Of Recovery Against Others To Us a. Transfer Of Rights Of Recovery If the insured has rights to recover all or part of any payment, including Supplementary Payments, we have made under this Coverage Part, those rights are transferred to us. The insured must do nothing after loss to impair them. At our request, the insured will bring "suit" or transfer those rights to us and help us enforce them. This condition does not apply to Medical Expenses Coverage. b. Waiver Of Rights Of Recovery (Waiver Of Subrogation) If the insured has waived any rights of recovery against any person or organization for all or part of any payment, including Supplementary Payments, we have made under this Coverage Part, we also waive that right, provided the insured waived their rights of recovery against such person or organization in a contract, agreement or permit that was executed prior to the injury or damage.

Principal Staff: Kimi Shigetani Cost: $10,000 Total Redistricting Cost: $50,000 Projected Additional Outreach. In addition to the regular presentations and outreach embedded in the redistricting process, specific outreach to impacted communities could be reinforced through the use of a qualified and experienced subcontractor. We are happy to work with the city on determining what these additional services will be and an appropriate contract, or subcontract, with Imprenta or another qualified firm. Recommended subvendor: Imprenta Cost: $15,000 Mapping Software for Public. Caliper Corporation is the vendor which provides two products that will be used for this project: (1) Maptitude for Redistricting, a desktop software for redistricting consultants, staff, and (2) Maptitude Online Redistricting system for community map drawing and public engagement. Caliper would also be conducting online training and technical support. Recommended subvendor: Caliper Cost: $12,000 Consultants and staff each have billable costs based on their experience and the value they bring to this project. The hourly rate for staff beyond the primary consultants is based on their position, and over the course of the contract different individuals can be assigned to each staff level.
