SARATOGA CITY COUNCIL MEETING DATE: March 18, 1998 AGENDA ITEM CITY MANAGER ORIGINATING DEPT. Office of the City Manager Paula Reeve, Analyst SUBJECT: Endorsement of Designation of Applicant's Agent Resolution Empowering Saratoga to Receive Federal Disaster Assistance Recommended Motion(s) Authorize the Mayor to execute the Resolution on behalf of the City. Report Summary President Clinton declared California a federal disaster area on February 9, 1998, as a result of Governor Wilson's request stemming from damage incurred by thirty -one California counties, including Santa Clara County, during recent storms. The declared disaster period will remain open until the rainy season has concluded. Local governments, special districts, state agencies and certain non profit organizations in the declared areas are therefore eligible to apply for Public Assistance funds from the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) through the Governor's Office of Emergency Services OES). The City of Saratoga has incurred approximately $200,000 in damage which is qualified for disaster reimbursement under this declaration. Saratoga must first, however, file an application packet by the April 10, 1998 deadline to be approved as an eligible applicant by FEMA. In an effort to minimize the paperwork associated with receiving disaster assistance, State OES has implemented revisions to existing Public Assistance documentation requirements. Specifically, the attached Designation of Applicant's Agent Resolution is no longer disaster specific, and may be utilized for future disasters. The revised form requires the City staff to indicate the titles of employees who may be handling the FEMA reimbursement process in the long run, rather that naming specific individuals who may eventually change assignments. Fiscal ImBacts Applying for federal assistance will allow the City to receive disaster reimbursement for costs associated with the 1998 storms. rl Page 2 Disaster Resolution Advertising Noticing and Public Contac Nothing further required. Consequences of Not Acting on the Rec mmended Motions The City of Saratoga will pay the resulting clean -up and repair costs incurred during the storms from its own budget. Follow Up Actions Execute and return the Resolution and other disaster application paperwork to State OES by the April 10, 1998 deadline.

MEETING DATE: March 18, 1998 ORIGINATING DEPT. Paula Reeve t? -X Office of the City AGENDA ITEM CITY MANAGER Manager J l SUBJECT Approval of Assignment, Assumption and Consent Agreement between Saratoga and West Valley Solid Waste Management Authority RECOMMENDED MOTION: It is recommended that the Council authorize the City Manager to endorse the Assignment, Assumption and Consent Agreement between Saratoga and the West Valley Solid Waste Management Authority. REPORT SUMMARY Last September, the West Valley Cities of Campbell, Los Gatos, Monte Sereno and Saratoga approved a Joint Powers Authority (JPA) to oversee the cities solid waste management efforts. In order for the Authority to effectively carry out its responsibilities, it is necessary that each participating agency assign its existing solid waste services agreements to the JPA. The proposed Assignment, Assumption and Consent Agreement ascribes the majority of the cities rights and obligations under the recycling, yard waste and refuse collection services agreements with Green Valley, and all rights under the waste disposal agreement with Guadalupe to the West Valley Solid Waste Management Authority. Assigned Rights The Agreement will enable the Authority to manage and oversee the collection and disposal of waste within the four jurisdictions as envisioned at the formation of the JPA. Specifically, the authority will: implement joint programs for the handling of solid waste and recyclables, monitor contract compliance of companies; regulate and set rates in accordance with agreements; advise the agencies regarding solid waste issues, rates and charges; advocate the interests of the agencies with local, state and federal officials; issue Requests for Proposals for solid waste, yard waste and recyclables services; and, advise the agencies regarding market conditions affecting the marketability of recyclable materials; Page 2 Assignment, Assumption and Consent Agreement Retained Rights As described in more complete detail in the Assignment Agreement, each agency retains certain rights under the service agreements, including: setting rate differentials for recycling and yard waste services, receiving and adjusting franchise fees, surcharges and any other necessary fees, the prerogative to direct services for refuse cleanups and Community Cleanup Days, the privileges and assurances provided with the Performance Bond, the power to terminate the Green Valley agreement for default; and to be reimbursed for damage to agency property. Legal Composition and Review Robert Logan, Monte Sereno's City Attorney, has prepared the attached agreement on behalf of all four jurisdictions. City Attorney Mike Riback has reviewed the Agreement to verify compliance with Saratoga's existing solid waste contracts. FISCAL IMPACTS Endorsing the Assignment Agreement will not directly affect the City's Integrated Waste Management budget. The actual expense, however, for Executive Director Scott Hobson to administrate the JPA is included in Saratoga's $29,710 proportionate share of the approved FY 1997 -98 West Valley Solid Waste Management Program budget. Funds for this expense are contained in Saratoga's accepted Integrated Waste Management budget in Activity 26, Account No. 5610 (Grants to other agencies). ADVERTISING NOTICING and PUBLIC CONTAC' Nothing additional. CONSEQUENCES OF NOT ACTING ON THE RECOMDIENDED MOTIONS The City of Saratoga will not be included in the West Valley Solid Waste Management Joint Exercise of Powers Authority, thereby requiring separate administration by the City of its Solid Waste Program efforts.

MEETING DATE: March 13, 1998 ORIGINATING DEPT.: City Manager's Office CITY MANAGER SUBJECT: Temporary Professional Services: Technology Management Function Recommended Motion(s) Authorize the City Manager to execute an agreement with OnLine Staffing which will subcontract with One2Velocity to provide both specific project work and network/desktop system support for a two week period. Report Summary Background: The City currently has a position, Technology Coordinator, which is budgeted as a .5 FTE. The position's incumbent (Sam Tarani) has been able to complete most of the transition work from the City's former network configuration to the new one which accommodates the system approved by Council last year. However, this notable effort has been accompanied by certain side effects, including insufficient time and resources to properly attend to: (1) the daily assistance required by the organization as a whole, (2) the ability to assess the City's current status in the context of its Technology Master Plan, and (3) the ability to anticipate and advise about the City's needs in the future. In addition, it is time to allow Mr. Tarani to take a vacation, which he has requested be approved for the period of March 23 April 6, 1998. Two firms and one individual were contacted to see what they might offer in terms of support during that period. Discussion: Though it was difficult to find the kind of temporary service the City needs on short notice and in such a tight labor market in the systems administration field, several sources were identified for further exploration: (1) One was an individual who is employed full time in a local software firm but was kind enough to offer to assist with trouble shooting several hours a week as long as it did not interfere with his job. His employer offered high praise regarding his abilities. His hourly rate was $150, which is quite consistent with the going rate ($150 -$200) for experienced system administration skills. (2) Another was a Bay Area firm which was slow to respond to our calls, and in subsequent conversation and research appeared to be focused on long term relationships. Staff also encountered a rather tepid client reference. (3) The most attractive alternative was proposed by Online Staffing in conjunction with One2Velocity. The resources to be provided to the City in Mr. Tarani's absence are comprehensive and will allow the City to not only complete certain important projects, but to also provide the daily coverage so critical to ongoing operations in which a great deal is at stake if any transaction is interrupted or lost. Please refer to Exhibit A of the attachment to this cover memo for specifics on the deliverables from this engagement. OnLine Staffing's clients include: Sun Microsystems (network and development engineers provided at all levels), Adobe Software, Siemens, Flewlett Packard, Tandem, 3Com, Web TV (a subsidiary of Microsoft), Tivoli (a partner with IBM), Unison, Oceana, and Aspect (a telecom firm). The firm also has offices in Austin and Rhode Island. Once again, this alternative will result in a close review of current operations, move the City well own the road toward addressing some of its highest priority projects, and provide experienced and essential daily coverage in Mr. Tarani's absence. Fiscal Impacts: The hourly rate for Online Staffing, the recommended service: provider, is discounted from the going rate to $125. Over the two -week period required by the City., the total compensation will amount to $10,000. If any currently unanticipated hours are required (with advance approval by the City), they will be billed at the same rate. There are sufficient funds in the Management Information Systems budget to cover this agreement. Follow Up Action(s): Execute an agreement with OnLine Staffing for temporary professional services in the technology management function. The agreement will be substantially in the form of the attached draft agreement, though some minor adjustments may be made. Consequences of Not Acting on Recommended Motion(s): A timely opportunity would be lost. Crucial coverage and attention to high priority projects would not be provided in Mr. Tarani's absence. The City would be unsupported in its daily operations, and important daily protocols for the safety and security of data would be deferred, leaving the City exceptionally vulnerable should any unforeseen interruptions occur. The least desirable alternative would be to not permit Mr. Tarani to take a vacation for reasons associated with employee health and welfare. Attachment(s): Draft Agreement, including Exhibit A 2 r 3 -13 -1998 10:23AM FROM ONLINE STAFFING CLIENT AGREEMENT FOR CONTRACT PLACEMENT SERVICES OnLine Staffing, Inc. is engaged in the business of providing Clients with contract personnel specializing in technical occupations.

AGENDA MEETING DATE: March 18, 1998 CITY MGR. ORIGINATING DEPT: Office of the ity Manager Paula Reev Analyst ITEM APPROVAL �l SUBJECT: Allocations for FY 1998/99 Housing and Community Development Act Funds (CDBG) and Human Services Grants RECOMMENDED ACTIONS: 1. Conduct the Public Hearing. 2. Make allocations for approximately $165,566 for FY 98/99 CDBG and Human Services funds. REPORT SUMMARY: The City Council is being asked to conduct a Public Hearing to receive comments and recommendations on project proposals for 1998/99 Housing and Community Development Act (HCDA) funds provided through the Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) Program. Council is further requested to make a determination regarding the allocation of $165,566 of these funds for Saratoga's FY 1998/99 grant proposals. The availability of Block Grant funds for eligible projects and activities has been publicized in the local newspaper. In an effort to streamline the administration of the CDBG Program during the upcoming fiscal year, only proposals for specific Saratoga rehabilitation projects sponsored by the City, or projects by agencies operating in Saratoga are being considered during the 1998/99 funding cycle. The recommended projects reflect the beginning of an effort to more efficiently manage the CDBG program, rather than funding projects outside of Saratoga which require multiple agency administration. BACKGROUND COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT PROGRAM The City of Saratoga and seven other "nonentitlement" cities (population under 50,000) within Santa Clara County, including the Urban County, receive federal Housing and Community Development Act funds. These funds are administered by the Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD), for eligible projects and activities. By regulation, nonentitlement cities receive funds through a Page 2 CDBG Allocations Background Continued cooperative Agreement with the Urban County of Santa Clara (the locally responsible grant recipient). Expenditure of these funds is restricted by federal regulations and additional guidelines imposed by the County. FY 1998/99 ALLOCATIONS The total HCDA allocation to the County for 1997/98 is expected to be approximately $2,576,000. Twenty percent of this grant will be disbursed for administrative expenses; forty percent is allocated to the Countywide competitive pool where funds are prioritized for projects and activities to increase the supply of affordable housing in the County; and the remainder is disbursed to the "nonentitlement cities" and the County to be allocated for other eligible CDBG programs, which is the focus of this report. The City of Saratoga will receive $150,566 for projects, plus $15,000 for staff administration expenses; a total of $165,566 for Council's consideration for 1998 -1999. Saratoga may disburse $32,228 of its total grant to Human Services proposals, as set by a pre determined fifteen percent cap of the total County grant. Human services include, but are not limited to: child care, job training, counseling, recreation programs, and services for senior citizens. FY 1998/99 HUMAN SERVICES AND CDBG FUNDING RECOMMENDATIONS One Human Services and three CDBG grant project proposals were received during the application cycle.

HUMAN SERVICES SASCC Adult Day Care Program (Attachment #2) Saratoga Area Senior Coordinating Council submitted its annual proposal for CDBG (Human Services) funding for continued support of the Saratoga Adult Care Center during FY 1998/99. C Recommendation Staff recommends funding the Saratoga Adult Day Care Center with the total $32,228 available from CDBG Human Services Grant funds. CDBG PROJECTS Page 3 CDBG Allocations SARATOGA AREA SENIOR COORDINATING COUNCIL (SASCC) SENIOR WING REHABILITATION (Attachment #3) SASCC submitted a proposal in the amount of $100,000 for rehabilitation and improvement to the Senior Wing on recommendation of the Parks and Recreation Commission and the City Staff.

Recommendation Staff recommends funding,$10:Cb00 0' funds, or this ideal proposal, which is an eligible useiof B to rehabilitate a City facility accommodating a-D are Program for senior, low- income adults. This rehabilitation project is mutually beneficial to the City of Saratoga and SASCC. To fully fund this project, staff recommends transferring $18,862 from an existing CDBG ADA project with a surplus. A sufficient balance exists in the account to accomplish desired ADA projects during the upcoming year. PROJECT MATCH RENT SUBSIDY FOR SARATOGA SENIOR GROUP RESIDENCE (Attachment #4) Project Match is requesting $14,700 to support the Saratoga Senior Group Residence rent subsidy. Project Match has been a recipient of funding from the City since 1991 for its Senior Group Residence located at 20218 Blauer Drive in Saratoga. Recommendation Staff endorses funding $14,700! support Project Match in its partnership with the Cif to continue providing affordable housing to low- income seniors. TRI -AEGIS SAFETY MODIFICATIONS TO VANDERBILT SINGLE- FAMILY HOME FOR ADULTS WITH DEVEL OPMENTAL DISABILITIES (Attachment #5) Tri -Aegis is requesting $7, 500 to fund safety modifications to its home for the developmentally disabled on Vanderbilt Avenue in Saratoga. Recommendation In 1995 -96 and 1996 -97, Tri -Aegis was granted a total of $100,000 by the City to purchase the Vanderbilt Avenue home in Saratoga to provide housing for six low- income individuals with developmental disabilities. The City granted Tri -Aegis $5,000 during 1997 -98 to make safety modificatior3,s to a fire sprinkAr�ystem at this residence.

Staff recommends fully fu rrg this project to assist Tri -Aegis to complete safety improvements. ADMINISTRATION Page 4 CDBG Allocations County Housing Rehabilitation Every participating City is required to allocate $15,000 from its CDBG funds on an annual basis to cover the cost of County Rehab Services for projects. These services include inspection, work write -up, project supervision and close -out. Recommendation Staff recommends funding this mandatory $15,000 allocation to the County for Rehab Services, as the County will be providing considerable rehabilitation assistance to the City during the next fiscal year. SHARP and CDBG Administration Saratoga receives an annual $15,000 allocation from the County for staff administration expenses. Recommendation Staff recommends disbursing $15,0.00 to cover Staff's time to administer the CDBG and SHARP Loan Programs and to cover the associated indirect costs. FISCAL IMPACTS: As noted above, the City has been provided with an HCDA allocation from the Urban County program for project costs plus $15,000 for staff administrative expenditures totaling $165,566 for 1998/99.

We understand the County HUD (CDBG) funds will be further reduced in the next fiscal year. This will create a further reduction to the Adult Care budget. We are making every effort to cope with continued reduction in public funds. SASCC is also submitting a proposal in the amount of $100,000 for re- habilitation and improvement to the Senior Wing on recommendation of the Parks and Recreation Commission and the City Staff. The concept was approved by the City Council and County Staff in December 1997. The sixteen year old Senior Wing is in need of refurbishing and modi- fications for much needed storage. An enlarged patio area for use by Adult Care Center and Community groups is also proposed. We urge your continued support of Senior Services for the City of Saratoga.

Organizational Qualifications The Saratoga Adult Care Center is a major program component of the Saratoga Area Senior Coordinating Council, incorporated in 1979. It also operates the Saratoga Senior Center for more active adults. Recognizing the needs of the aging population supported by a community assessment, the Saratoga Adult Care Center opened in 1988 as the first facility in Santa Clara County to be designed and built as an adult care center. It provides much needed respite for the caregiver and a higher quality of life for the participant at much less cost to both family and public agencies, should individual's resources be exhausted. The mandate of Saratoga Adult Care Center is to prevent and delay institutionalization of the frail elderly and permit them to remain in their own or a relative's home. The need for this service will accelerate as the population ages. By the year 2010, Santa Clara County's population over 85 years of age is expected to double. The Saratoga Adult Care Center opened in January 1988 and has steadily increased the number of days open from two at the outset to five full days weekly by February 1994, and in this time increased the average number of families served monthly from 9 to 30 at any one time, with over 235 visits by participants each month. This increased utilization validates the need. Though licensed by Community Care Licensing for 30 participants per day, the Center comfortably serves only a capacity of 20 per day. In early 1995, the Saratoga Adult Care Center began to offer extended hours to accommodate employed caregivers. Its participants come from surrounding areas of the West Valley Corridor, including Los Gatos, Santa Clara, Campbell, West San Jose and Cupertino. The Saratoga Adult Care Center is responsible to the Board of Directors of the Saratoga Area Senior Coordinating Council, yet operates under the guidance of its own Advisory Board, whose members are nurses, physicians, business persons and community volunteers who know the area and have had experience with Adult Care. (Current list is attached.) Staff are well trained and experienced. The Adult Care Administrator holds a BA Degree•in human development and has over ten years of institutional management experience. She is the only full -time staff, which includes part-time program coordinator with over ten years in the assignment, two part-time program assistants and limited professional social work and clerical staff. A third program assistant must be added as enrollment has increased. Fifty trained volunteers supplement the seven paid staff and provide over 700 hours of service annually. B. Past Performance and Evaluation Saratoga Adult Care has its own Advisory Board which monitors the operations and future planning for the program. The Chair of the Advisory Board is the third vice president of Saratoga Area Senior Coordinating Council, the parent organization. The program has submitted quarterly reports to the City of Saratoga in meeting grant requirements, and also to the County of Santa Clara Social Services Agency which provided funding in prior years. State licensing and sanitation requirements have been met in all instances. Monthly reports are provided to the Board of Directors of Saratoga Area Senior Coordinating Council and to the Advisory Board of Saratoga Adult Care, so effectiveness is evaluated regularly. Observation of improvement in functioning by participants is noted as is the relief afforded the caregiver. Exit interviews are recorded when the participant leaves the project and become part of a statistical track for reporting and program improvement. Saratoga Adult Care makes use of many various available resources to carry out its programs and funding. The volunteer intensive contribution supplements the limited paid staff, and encourages community support. The Administrative Director works with the other Adult Daycare directors in the county, with Volunteer Exchange, the Network of Aging Providers and community agencies. Staff has served on the Senior Care Commission and Board of Information and Referral, Inc. All this interagency coordination helps to eliminate duplication of services where appropriate, and strengthen Adult Care programs throughout the county. C. Project Outcome Objectives (1) Provide respite care daily to 20 frail and less independent participants from the West Valley of Santa Clara County. (2) Prevent or delay institutionalization of individuals who require considerable personal assistance. (3) Provide socialization, instruction, and structured activities for the less independent elderly in a licensed care facility which offers respite to caregivers and helps maintain the frail elderly person in his/her home as long as possible. Exercise, crafts, skill development and a nutritious meal are provided daily. (4) Facilitate caregiver groups as needed for the target area, working in collaboration with local churches and civic organizations of the West Valley area. A caregiver's support group is conducted twice monthly in cooperation with the Alzheimer's Association. (5) Measurement of success is respite for the caregiver, an improved quality of life for caregiver and participant, and cost savings from delay of more expensive custodial care. (The cost of Saratoga Adult Care is about $7/hour as compared to homehealth aide and nursing support costs in the community and offers a much broader spectrum of quality service.) (6) Continue the service, with cost containment measures, which depends heavily on over 700. volunteer hours annually. (7) Increase enrollment to approximately 40 families monthly by mid fiscal year. (8) Increase funding base through local resources, fees, and fund raising events and reduce the need to depend on City and County funding for nearly fifty percent of budget. However, it must be recognized that this service intensive quality program can not expect to be self supporting because of the aged fixed low income population it serves. 2 D. Project Management Program activities in the Care Center are designed to carry out the objectives for the project. They provide exercise routines, memory training, and stimulation through travelogues, crafts, music, a variety of entertainment, current events, discussion and directed conversation. Special adaptive exercises and skill training are focused on participants who need help with physical disabilities (e.g. stroke, aphasia, Parkinson's.) A full nutritious meal is served daily. Special health services including blood pressure checks and health talks are offered by nursing students from San Jose State University. Volunteers and instructors assigned by West Valley College augment the activities and help contain costs. Caregivers support groups are organized as a community service to assist those who care for dependent elders. A group, led by a professional social worker, organized in cooperation with the Alzheimer's Foundation, meets twice monthly, and involves caregivers of those with Alzheimer's and other dementias. The Administrative Director and Program Coordinator maintain strong public relations with local, county, and state senior organizations and participate in required training. These keep the project visible and the quality of the program at a high level. Activities include considerable counseling and referral of persons not suitable for this program to other resources in the area. A five- minute video has been produced about Saratoga Adult Care with the assistance of volunteers from West Valley and Mission Colleges, and it has become an excellent public- relations tool, as caregivers attest to the value of the program for them personally. Constant, aggressive marketing efforts are required, tailored to the value of the program for the specific target population. The Administrative Director will continue organizational networking, publicity development, and public speaking to enhance this effort. This is necessary to maintain participation at capacity to compensate for the attrition which occurs for several identified reasons. The program of activities in Saratoga Adult Care is planned on a monthly schedule and is designed to carry out objectives for the project. Individual attention is directed to those who need special activities, and modifications are developed to consider individual abilities and needs. E. Statement of Need Advances in medical technology and increased life expectancy make it clear that the rapidly growing population of older adults will need increased support services, while simultaneously the number of potential caregivers has been decreasing as the size of the American family diminishes. Adult Care is still a largely underutilized alternative that can enhance the family's ability to care for elderly relatives, while giving them time to carry out necessary family tasks or employment outside the home. The Saratoga Adult Care Center provides non medical services to persons over 60 years old who are in need of assistance, supervision, and personal services on less than a 24 hour basis. The program provides respite to caregivers of these frail elders. Sixty six percent are living at poverty levels established by the County of Santa Clara. This low fixed income of those in need of adult care socialization confirms need for increased funding to assist in maintaining the program for the increasing numbers who will utilize it. Funding sources in Saratoga (a minimum service city) have been reduced. United Way has not given priority to funding new programs in the last several years. The City of Saratoga has been unable to meet full funding requests, but a Community Development Block Grant funds 23% of the project budget. The need is to increase revenue from other sources which includes the $32, 228 requested from Saratoga's CDBG Services Fund. An application has also been made to the City of Campbell from which come nearly thirty percent of participants. The need for funding is further justified by the fact that participation in adult day care programs helps keep frail elders out of skilled nursing facilities for a longer period and protects resources and public funds from expenses equal to at least $36,000 annually. When nursing care becomes necessary, the participant generally is in the late stages of life and needs this skilled care only a few weeks or months. F. Project Beneficiaries Sixty percent of the projected beneficiaries are residents of Saratoga, with other participants coming from adjacent areas of Campbell, Los Gatos, and San Jose. These persons with an average age of 85 years are on low fixed incomes and 82% of these participants have low to very low incomes. The Adult Care Center now is full five days weekly, and revenues continue to increase, but subsidy is necessary. G. Fiscal Please refer to the Program Budget sheet in which we request $32,228 to support a portion of the total operating costs of the Saratoga Adult Care program including salaries, organization costs, training expense, audit, insurances, mileage expense and necessary licenses and membership. With the help of a volunteer intensive effort which provides program presenters, meal pick up, and hands -on service to participants, this program creatively stretches its revenues. Expenses are tightly controlled to the budget allocated and reviewed monthly by the Finance Committee, Advisory Board, and Board of Directors of the Corporation. Rent, utilities and janitorial services are provided in -kind by the City of Saratoga. This is a significant budget saving whose dollar value has not been accurately determined. With the efficient and Spartan use of resources the cost of the program is factored at $7 per hour or $43 daily per participant. This is considerably less than in -home or nursing care would cost the individual and who might otherwise require public support. Since 66% of the participants fall into the poverty level, the average daily payment per participant is only $18. It is to underwrite the program for these beneficiaries that funds are requested from the City of Saratoga to supplement the allocations from SASCC, and reimbursement through the Council on Aging. (USDA.) In addition, the Saratoga Adult Care program gains support from fund raising and marketing efforts through fashion -show luncheons, theatre parties, garage sales, and targeted requests. An on -going effort to involve business and community services results in additional contributions of time and funding. Donations from estates of participants have also added to budget stability. The Endowment Fund of the parent organization, Saratoga Area Senior Coordinating Council, provides monthly allocation and adequacy of financial resources to perform the contract services. 4 SARATOGA ADULT CARE CENTER FINANCIAL INFORMATION BUDGET NARRATIVE Please provide the following information: 1.

It is located on City property as a wing of the Community Center at 19655 Allendale Avenue. In 1988 an Adult Care Center was added, with State funds from the Senior Center Bond Act, furnished with a community fund drive, and supported by a loan from the City of Saratoga, repaid over a five year period. These facilities comprising nearly 6000 square feet are used by City of Saratoga on weekends and evenings for classes, meetings, and rental revenue. The space is constrained for growth of some of the senior programs as the senior population increases. Since there is very limited potential for expansion, rehabilitation upgrade and adjustments for space utilization will enhance the facilities for their purpose and general community use. The Saratoga Area Senior Coordinating Council has received funding from the City of Saratoga and federal pass- through of Community Development Block Grant funds and has administered them in ax exemplary manner for operations over the period of its existence. As noted, through biennial survey of its membership, SASCC has determined its facility utilization serves a population of 60% low to moderate income area residents. The income level of Adult Care Center participants is even lower, because of their age and fixed low incomes. The program budget for operations is submitted in a separate proposal and contains financial information about the corporation. It does not include the request for $100,000 of CDBG funding to accomplish the "rehabilitation" projects. This project has been reviewed by Saratoga's Parks and Recreation Commission and approved in concept by the Saratoga City Council and the County of Santa Clara's Rehab specialist in the Housing and Community Development's Housing Rehabilitation Program. An estimated cost of $91,368 was submitted but did not include the installation of a sliding patio door to the Adult Care Center modification which would replace the existing window. (See attachments with detail.) Neither did it include access to "closed captioning" or assistive devices for the hearing impaired in the Senior Wing. These additions bring the total project request to $100,000, subject to submission of bids. This project, if approved, will provide many.needed improvements to the facility. The City of Saratoga has on file a copy of most recent professional audits, verification of non profit status, articles of incorporation and by -laws and adopted personnel policies. List of 1997 -98 Board of Directors is attached. December, 1997 Concept Proposal for Rehab of Senior Wing with CDBG Funds Entrance: Bench for persons waiting for pick -up.

As you may know, I have taught at the SSC for more than 6 years and during that time the ancient closed captioning unit in the Adult Lounge has been non functional. I more recently discovered that the VCR/monitor (used primarily in the Day Care Center) set -up is not closed captioning compatible. There are several severely hearing impaired students enrolled in my Speechreading classes and due to the lack of appropriate assistive devices they have been unable to benefit from any educational videos and/or guest speakers. (The Williams Pocket Talker ALD's available during Council meetings are insufficient for anyone with more than a moderate hearing loss.) On June 26, for our final class of this quarter, we had a severely hearing impaired guest speaker. He spent well over two hours setting up his ami A(ssistive) L(istening) S(ystem) and attaching his personal closed caption decoder to the VCR/monitor so that my students could hear his presentation and conversely, so that he could hear my students' questions. It is inexcusable that there is no closed captioning for the VCR/monitor and/or that there is no appropriate assistive listening system in our City facilities. Moreover, it is illegal that no such accommodations have been made, as directed by the ADA- It is not costly to provide either of these accommodations and they will benefit significant numbers of people attending events at the City Centers. It is quite likely that 30 -60% of the older people attending various functions at the City facilities, are unable to satisfactorily hear or understand. We are cheating them and preventing them from fullly benefitting and/or participating in the events. You might be interested in knowing that I recently approached Fry's Electronics to encourage their donating a closed captioning compatible TV to the Senior Center; unfortunately, they "did not wish to donate at this time." I am quite willing to assist you in bringing the Community and Senior Centers "up to compliance" with the ADA- It is my understanding that the City of Santa Clara has had an excellent system in place for nearly 10 years; perhaps they could provide you with additional guidance.

OF FUNDS REQUESTED FROM CITY OF SARATOGA $14,700 PROJECT ABSTRACT (Limit statement to space provided) This request if for rent subsidy funds to continue to provide affordable housing for low income seniors in the City of Saratoga. This is a request for the continuation of our partnership with the City in our Saratoga Senior Group Residence Rent Subsidy Program which began is 1991. The City of Saratoga does not discriminate on the basis of race, color, national origin, sex, religion, age or disability in the provision of services and programs SARATOGA SENIOR GROUP RESIDENCE RENT SUBSIDY PROGRAM NARRATIVE For the past 20 years, Project Match has provided affordable housing for very low income seniors throughout Santa Clara County. At the same time, our innovative shared housing strategy has provided companionship, security and affordable housing for thousands of seniors. Considering that over 107,000 seniors in the County have incomes below $25,000 annually and rental costs are above $800 monthly, Project Match's strategy is as vital now as it was 20 years ago. Our Saratoga Senior Group Residence Rent Subsidy Program we will serve seniors 60 years of age and older who have low- incomes. In our Group Residence Program we will continue to work to create environments that honor people as individuals and develop relationships that provide a sense of security, place and self worth. The Saratoga Senior Group Residence Rent Subsidy Program will provide shared housing for seniors in a single family home located on 20218 Blauer Dr. in the City of Saratoga. We will act as property manager of the group residence and coordinate all placement opportunities. Our Senior Group Residence Program has proved extremely successful in helping seniors experiencing depression that results from the isolation of living alone, and has served as a model for other such programs throughout the nation. Project Match operates a total of 6 Senior Group Residence programs throughout Santa Clara County. There are currently 30 rooms available in our 6 Senior Group Residences. Last year the average room in our Group Residences was $361. Our occupancy rate was over 95 The average length of stay in our group residences is two years while the longest residency is almost 9 years. The two primary reasons seniors leave our group residences are because (1) their medical needs become so serious that they require 24 -hour care or (2) because the resident dies. Our goal is to help clients identify those qualities of life they value and to work together to obtain the necessary resources that will allow them to live by these values. This program has proved so successful that the television news magazine 20/20 featured it as an innovative solution to the problem of social isolation among seniors. Our program benefits seniors with very low incomes to: Gain affordable housing Identify their self care, mutual care, and professorial care needs and to get these needs met Experience their living environments as affordable, safe, companionable, respectful, and community oriented Our Saratoga Senior Group Residence Rent Subsidy Program, located on Blauer Dr. will provide affordable housing for 6 low income seniors 60 years of age or older. The house is currently at 100% occupancy with all six rooms being filled. The program provides this affordable housing through rent subsidies form the City's Hosing Find for Low Income Seniors. The house has been leased for this purpose since 1991 and the City of Saratoga has provided rent subsidy since that time. Efidbility Criteria 1. Priority for occupancy will be given to low- income seniors living or having families living in the City of Saratoga. 2. Shared housing will be provided for Males or Females, 60 years of age or older. All individuals living in or applying for vacancies in the house will be functionally independent (physically and emotionally). All potential applicants will be required to pass a health screening. The house will provide housing for 6 seniors and will operate at a minimum 95% occupancy rate over the period July 1, 1998 through June 30, 1999 3. Income limits for those who will be eligible for 1998 -99 will be as follows: Maximum $29,1000 (65% of median) annual income for one person Proposed Reimbursement to Project Match: I.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS JUNE 30, 1997 AND 1996 NOTE 1 SUMMARY OF ACTIVITIES AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES: Summary of Activities Project Match, Inc. (Agency) provides housing alternatives for seniors and other adults living in Santa Clara County (Housing Match and Group Home programs). In addition, the Agency operates a program that houses people who have lost their homes or are in immediate danger of losing their homes (Homeless program) as well as a program that ensures that frail and homebound seniors gain needed in -home services and coordinates such services through the placement of low- income adults in seniors' homes (Bridges to Independence program). Summary of Significant Accounting Policies The Agency follows standards of accounting and financial reporting for voluntary health and welfare organizations as prescribed by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. In accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 117, the Agency reports its financial position and operating activities in three classes of net assets as applicable: unrestricted net assets, temporarily restricted net assets and permanently restricted net assets. Unrestricted net assets include those assets over which the Board of Directors has discretionary control in carrying out the operations of the Agency. Under this category, the Agency maintains an operating fund and equipment fund plus any net assets designated by the Board for specific purposes. Temporarily restricted net assets include those assets which are subject to a donor or funding source restriction and for which the applicable restriction was not met as of the end of the current reporting period. Permanently restricted net assets include those assets which are subject to a non expiring donor restriction, such as endowments. Revenue Recognition The Agency recognizes support and revenue on the accrual basis of accounting. Grant revenue and program fees are recognized as revenue in the period in which the service is provided. RE PROJECT MATCH, INC. NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS JUNE 30, 1997 AND 1996 NOTE 1 SUMMARY OF ACTIVITIES AND SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES: (Continued) Contributions Contributions are reported in accordance with SFAS No. 116. Contributions are recognized when the donor makes a pledge to give that is, in substance, an unconditional promise. Contributions are recorded as unrestricted, temporarily restricted or permanently restricted depending on the nature of donor restrictions. Restricted contributions are reported as increases in restricted net assets. When the restriction is met the amount is shown as a reclassification of restricted net assets to unrestricted net assets. Contributions In -Kind Contributions in -kind are recognized in accordance with the provisions of SFAS No. 116. Donated equipment and other donated goods are' recorded at their estimated fair market value as of the date of the donation. Contributed services, which require a specialized skill and which the Agency would have paid for if not donated, are recorded at the estimated fair market value at the time the services are rendered. Cash and Cash Equivalents Cash and cash equivalents include highly liquid investments and investments with a maturity of three months or less. Allowance for Doubtful Accounts The Agency does not maintain an allowance for doubtful accounts due to the fact that the majority of the accounts receivable are reimbursements from funding sources for cost incurred for the various programs. Investments Investments are stated at fair value. Dividends and interest are accrued as earned and recorded as unrestricted revenue unless income is restricted by the donor. The unrealized gain or loss for the current period is reported as investment income Equipment and Depreciation Equipment is recorded at cost or, if contributed at the estimated fair market value when donated. It is the Agency's policy to capitalize items costing more than $600. Depreciation is computed using the straight line method over estimated useful lives which range from three to thirty years. Depreciation is recorded as a decrease in unrestricted net assets and the expense is charged to the activity benefiting from the use of the facilities or equipment. Indirect Expense Allocations Indirect expense allocations are based on the number of full time equivalent staff members in each activity. -7- PROJECT MATCH, INC.

Tri -Aegis Residential Services, Inc. Vanderbilt Project Saratoga CDBG 98 -99 Project Name: Vanderbilt Project A. Description of Agency Tri-Aegis Residential Services, Inc., the applicant agency, is a 501(c)3 organization. The primary mission of the agency is to provide intermediate level homes for persons with developmental disabilities. The agency serves primarily Santa Clara County and has seven homes here. Four are located in San Jose, two in Santa Clara and one in Saratoga. Resident placement and case management services are provided through San Andreas Regional Center. The agency policy direction is set by the Board of Directors and primary oversight rests with the Chief Executive Officer. In addition, each home is supervised by a professional trained in the fields of social work, psychology, speech, physical therapy, or related discipline. Twenty -four hour staffing care is given in each of the six person homes. B. Past Performance Tri-Aegis has been providing homes for persons with challenging conditions for almost 13 years. The past eleven years have been serving solely persons with developmental disabilities. These include persons with mental retardation, cerebral palsy, autism. epilepsy, and other neurological conditions that occurred before age 18. Each home has a program of care for the six residents who live there. This program includes assistance with health related needs as well as activities of daily living. Staff is carefully selected and trained to provide 24- supervision and care. The homes are licensed by the State Department of Health Services and provide a very high standard of care. A home in Saratoga has been in operation for nine years. In 1995 -96 and 1996 -97, Tri-Aegis was granted a total of $100,000 by the City of Saratoga which was used to purchase a house in Saratoga. That project was successfully completed in that a home was located and purchased and renovated in Saratoga. The clients moved in on November 23, 1996. All stages of that project were completed within budget, timelines, and City of Saratoga grant requirements. In 1997 -98, Tri-Aegis was granted $5,000 by the City of Saratoga to make safety modifications of a fire sprinkler system. This grant was partial funding of the proposal submitted. With the use of agency funds, the project was begun. Although the original project was downsized, as this project progressed, it became apparent that to complete the job most effectively, it will require an additional $4500 beyond what Tri-Aegis has put in and the 97 -98 grant. Tri-Aegis is prepared to contribute an additional $3,000 by utilizing volunteers and staff for the underground work. That leaves a balance of $1500 which is o ne part of the current g, ant rPrn,PCr The agency has had several state and local grants, and have always met the requirements of the funding agencies. This same assurance would be given to the City of Saratoga. Tri -Aegis Residential Services, Inc. Vanderbilt Project Saratoga CDBG 98 -99 C. Project Purpose Objectives: Tri -Aegis was granted $5,000 by the City of Saratoga in 1997 -98 to fund safety modification to the agency's Saratoga single family home. Specifically, the modification planned was the addition of a fire sprinkler system will supplement the hard wire fire alarm system required by regulations that is already in place. The sprinkler system will not only add safety to the home but will also make it more accessible to future residents whose ambulation might be more limited than the current residents. c� purpose of the current project is to complete the fire sprinkler system project. We also would like to install double pane windows in the same home to improve the efficiency of the home by keeping it cooler in summer and warmer in winter. The windows will help provide a more comfortable summertime environment for our residents and utility bill savings would then be used to enrich program actives and special outings. D. Project Management The project will be given oversight by the Chief Executive Officer with specific direction given by a board member familiar with the Vanderbilt property and grant administration and a board consultant familiar with fire sprinkler systems. Technical support will be provided by agency clerical staff. Time frame is one year, with periodic progress reports to the Board of Directors and funding source. Effectiveness will be demonstrated by the existence of an operable fire sprinkler system and double pane windows by June 1999. On -going monitoring to ensure proper operation of the sprinkler system will be done quarterly by agency safety coordinator and annually by local and state fire marshals. E. Community Need for Program San Andreas Regional Center provides services to adults with developmental disabilities in the immediate four county area. Their 1997 Needs Assessment indicates an ongoing need for group homes for individuals with ambulation impairments. It has been demonstrated that individuals do better in small home like settings, and for that reason, among others, decisions have been made to close the larger institutional settings. However, particularly here in Santa Clara valley where housing costs are very high, the development of the smaller homes has not kept pace with the need. A fire sprinkler system at Vanderbilt House would expand the home's services to more physically disabled individuals who cannot get out independently in an emergency: The safety of those who currently reside at Vanderbilt would be maximized. Tri -Aegis Residential Services, Inc. Vanderbilt Project Saratoga CDBG 98 -99 The reimbursement rate for services such as those Tri-Aegis provides are the same statewide. That means to provide quality housing and services in our very expensive Santa Clara Valley, Tri-Aegis must stretch the budget further than organizations in other, less expensive areas of the state. Tri-Aegis prides itself on providing quality, enriched services to its residents with disabilities. To do so on the restricted income we receive requires basic operating cost reductions in all ways possible. The reduced utilities cost that would result from double pane windows is one example of how we can maximize funds that can be dedicated to client services. F. Project Beneficiaries Vanderbilt project would benefit six very low income persons. They are all on Social Supplemental Income and Medi -Cal. Their families may not be low income, but these persons are counted independently, since some have elderly parents on retirement incomes or unable to continue as their family member's sole support due to the heavy medical needs and related expenses. The agency currently serves three Saratoga residents, and a total of forty -two persons. All six residents of the Vanderbilt Project reside in Saratoga. G.

Your exempt status under section 501(a) of the Internal Revenue Code as an organization described in 501(c)(3) is still in effect. This classification is based on the assumption that your operations will continue as you have stated. If your sources of support, or your purposes, character, or method of operation change, please let us know so we can consider the effect of the change on your exempt status and foundation status. This supersedes our letter dated June 7, 1994. Grantors and contributors may rely on this determination unless the Internal Revenue Service publishes notice to the contrary. However, if you lose your section 509(a)(2) status, a grantor or contributor may not rely on this determination if he or she was in part responsible for, or was aware of, the act or failure to act, or the substantial or material change on the part of the organization that resulted in your loss of such status, or if he or she acquired knowledge that the Internal Revenue Service had given notice that you would no longer be classified as a section 509(a)(2) organization. As of January 1, 1984, you are liable for taxes under the Federal Insur- ance Contributions Act (social security taxes) on remuneration of $100 or more you pay to each of your employees during a calandar year. You are not liable for the tax imposed under the Federal Unemployment Tax Act (FUTA). You are required to file Form 990 only if your gross receipts each year are normally more than $25,000. For guidance in determining whether your gross receipts are "normally" more than $25,000, see the instructions for Form 990. If a return is required, it must be filed by the 15th day of the fifth month after the end of your annual accounting period. A penalty of $10 a day is charged when a return is filed late, unless there is reasonable cause for the delay. However, the maximum penalty charged cannot exceed $5,000 or 5 percent of your gross receipts for the year, whichever is less. This penalty may also be charged if a return is not complete, so please be sure your return is complete before you file it.

The market has been operating at this site on Saturdays from 9:00 AM to 1:00 PM since last summer. Previously they were located in the Saratoga Village next to Blaney Plaza and were supported by the Saratoga Business Development Committee as a promotional draw to the Village the Saratoga High School location is not proximate to any commercial areas. Since the market is only held on four Saturdays within a 30 day period, it can be acted on by the Community Development Director, subject to a $500 processing fee. Review by the County Environmental Health, Sheriff and Fire Departments' is still necessary. Requirement of Fees Saratoga's development review fee schedule has been calculated to recover the staff time /costs expended reviewing and issuing Planning, Building and Engineering Division permits. The Temporary Use Permit fees of $500 and $1,500 reflect the respective costs of processing the permits administratively and through a regularly scheduled hearing before the Planning Commission. Prior to Saratoga's two most recent staffing and budget reductions, the City Council would occasionally waive permit fees for non -profit fund raising type activities. More recently, however, the City Council has consistently denied these fee waiver requests. The Council's position has been that in a time of reduced basic community services, all permit processing fees need to collected to ensure full cost recovery and to protect the City's general fund balance. Public Notice No public notice or hearing is required for these requests. Fiscal Impacts Either the City will recover its costs by imposing the applicable permit fees, or the fees will be waived and the City would not recover the costs of processing the Temporary Use Permits. Follow -up Actions A Resolution reflecting the City Council's determination will be prepared for adoption at the next available meeting. Consequences of Not Acting on the Recommended Motio The permit fees would be waived and the City would not recover the costs of processing the Temporary Use Permits. Attachments: 1.

Article 15 -60 of the City Code Temporary Uses c fro I March 11, 1998 Saratoga City Council City of Saratoga 13777 Fruitvale Avenue Saratoga, CA 95070 Dear Mayor Wolfe and Council Members, On behalf of the San Jose Symphony Auxiliary, I am requesting a waiver of the $1,500 fee we are being charged for a temporary use permit to hold our annual Designer Showcase Mansion in Saratoga See attachment). This event, now in its 21st year, lasts for a month and is the Auxiliary's primary fund raiser for the San Jose Symphony. Tickets to the Showcase are tax deductible under the IRS code and the Auxiliary is a not for -profit organization. We have a membership of 150, many of whom live in Saratoga. As president of the Auxiliary and a 22 -year resident of the city, I believe it is inappropriate for Saratoga to levy what is in effect a tax on charitable organizations holding events in the city which do not require city support or services such as traffic control, erection of barriers, etc. There should be a distinction made between organizations which utilize city resources and those which are located in Saratoga or use a private Saratoga facility to hold their event without involvement of or cost to the city. The latter is the case with the Designer Showcase Mansion. Also to the best of our knowledge and experience, no other municipality in the area imposes such a charge. The Saratoga fee represents at least 2% of our charitable revenues. After consideration of these arguments, we hope that the Council will exempt the Auxiliary from the use fee. Thank you for your consideration. Sincerely, Bonnie Radding.

This year's Designer Showcase Home is located at 18450 Sobey Road. The Auxiliary's major fund- raising event, all proceeds of which benefit the San Jose Symphony, will run May 9 through June 7, Tuesdays through Sundays from 10:00 A.M. to 4:00 P.M.

Successful CerLified Farmers' Markets are comprised of a unique blend of resources which include the local community, the City, the State government, local businesses and the growers. The com- munity enjoys access to farm -fresh fruits and vegetables direct from the farmers. Certified Farmers' Markets were made possible in 1977 when the State of California enacted deregulation of the agricultural rode allowing small farms to bring their crop to town exempt from shipping requirements. Local businesses lend their support through co promotions and cities provide help through cash contributions or in -kind contributions, many times including the waiver of fees. Participating growers fund the majority of the expenses for the market but are greatly affected by outside occurrences such as the E1 Nino weather pattern and crop availability. The Saratoga Certified Farmers' Market is in its infancy and needs the nurturing from all of the above to survive and prosper. Unlike most market sponsors throughout the Bay Area this farmers' market has not received grant monies or in -kind contributions from the City of Saratoga. To-.help pay for maintenance of the School parking lot, bathrooms and trash pick -up we give the school district $50.00 per market day and provide produce for A non-profit grower organization MAR -03 -98 03:44 PM CALIF.FARMERS.MKT 510 6 8 9 4141 r k'I March 3, 1998 page two. their lunch program during the agricultural season. The extra rain we have been receiving from E1 Nino has greatly reduced our revenues which are $200 to $300 below our cost of operating per week. Our only affordable promotional venue for signage for the market at this time is on Saturdays along Saratoga /Sunnyvale Road which was suspended until the market's temporary use permit can be processed. As you can see, we do not have the funds to pay a temporary use permit fee of $500.00 and cannot afford to delay the use of our signage to attract consumers to the market. We are hereby requesting the City of Saratoga to waive the permit fee of $500.00 and to expedite the process of granting our signage along the Saratoga /Sunnyvale Road. Please call us at 510- 689 -4141 if you have any questions concer- ning this matter.

MEETING DATE: MARCH 18, 1998 ORIGINATING DEPT.: PUBLIC WORKS AGENDA ITEM i CITY MGR.: DEPT. HEAD: SUBJECT: Landscaping and Lighting Assessment District LLA -1; Reauthorization for FY 98 -99 Recommended Motion(s) 1. Move to adopt the Resolution describing improvements and directing preparation of the Engineer's Report for reauthorization of the District for FY 98 -99. 2. Move to adopt the resolution appointing the Attorneys for the District for FY 98 -99. Report Summary Attached are the two Resolutions which the Council must adopt to initiate the reauthorization of the Landscaping and Lighting Assessment District LLA -1 for FY 98 -99. A brief summary of each Resolution follows: 1. Resolution describing improvements and directing preparation of the Engineer's Report for Fiscal Year 1998 -1999 This is the Resolution required under Streets Highways Code Section 22622 to initiate the annual renewal process for the District for the ensuing fiscal year. The Resolution refers to the improvements proposed to be undertaken (Exhibit A), and orders the preparation of the Engineer's Report required under S &H 22565. 2. Resolution appointing attorneys for Fiscal Year 1998 -1999 This Resolution appoints the City Attorney's office as the attorneys for the District for FY 98 -99 and limits the attorney's fees to a maximum of $500. The provisions of SB 919 (The Proposition 218 Omnibus Implementation Act) adopted by the legislature last year will be incorporated into the renewal process for the first time this year. Procedurally this means that assessment ballots will be mailed to those property owners within the District whose assessments are proposed to increase from any previous year and who did not vote last year, or who own property within one of the Zones which were included in the balloting last year but which failed to approve the proposed assessment increase at that time. Additionally, SB 919 eliminates the requirement that the City conduct a public informational meeting at least ten days prior to the Protest Hearing. As before, ballots will be separately tabulated at the close of the Protest Hearing for each Zone that is voting. Only those ballots returned by the close of the Protest Hearing will then be tabulated to determine if a majority protest exists. 0 The following sets forth the tentative schedule for renewal of the District for FY 98 -99: March 18 Council adopts Resolutions directing preparation of the Engineer's Report and appointing attorneys. April 15 Engineer's Report with preliminary assessment amounts is submitted. Council adopts Resolution of Intention preliminarily approving Engineer's Report and setting date for Protest Hearing. April 17 Notices of preliminary assessments and Protest Hearing date, and Prop. 218 ballots are mailed to property owners. Notice of Protest Hearing date is sent to Saratoga News. April 29 Protest Hearing notice published in Saratoga. News. May 6 June 3 Council conducts Protest Hearing per Gov't. Code Sec. 53753. Ballots must be submitted by the close of the hearing. City tabulates ballots. If appropriate, Council adopts Resolution confirming the assessments for FY 98 -99. June 17 Backup date in case of any problems. August 10 Final date for transmitting the assessment roll to the County Auditor Fiscal Impacts: All of the costs associated with the Landscaping and Lighting Assessment District LLA -1 are charged against and recovered through the District. There is no direct fiscal impact on the City's General Fund. A more precise look at the proposed funding of the District in FY 98 -99 will be available when you receive the preliminary Engineer's Report. Advertising, Noticing and Public Contact Nothing additional at this time. Eventually, notices will be mailed to those property owners in the District whose assessments are proposed to be increased, along with the Prop. 218 ballot. Consequences of Not Acting on the Recommended Motion This would depend on what Resolutions the Council does not approve. Either the reauthorization process would not begin, or the City Attorney's office would not be appointed as the Attorneys for the District. Follow Up Actions Work on the Engineer's Report will begin. 4 Attachments: 1. Resolution describing improvements and directing preparation of the Engineer's Report for FY 98 -99. 2.
