Date:Wednesday, September 7, 2022 5:22:23 PM
Dear Bill,
Thank you for sharing your thoughts with the City Council on this project. The City
Council traditionally reviews and prioritizes funding for all the Capital Improvement Plan
projects around March each year. I understand that our Public Works Department will be
requesting authorization of an engineering services contract for this project at the
September 21 City Council meeting. Would you like to have your comments be included
in the written communications for the item?
While we cannot discuss your proposal during the September 7 meeting due to Brown
Act limitations, your message will be included as part the September 7 meeting record
under communications on non-agendized items. The City Council may request discussion
of the project at a future meeting, including as part of an agenda item currently
scheduled for the September 21 meeting.
Regards,
Tina Walia
Mayor, City of Saratoga

Subject: Blue Hills Elementary Pedestrian Crossing at Union Pacific Railroad (UPRR)
CAUTION: This email originated from outside your organization. Exercise caution when

Hello Council Members,
I would like to ask for a motion or motions for the following at the September 7
Council Meeting:
An agenda item at the next council meeting to consider canceling the Blue Hills
Elementary Pedestrian Crossing at Union Pacific Railroad (UPRR)
Request staff produce a report showing how much Saratoga can save by
canceling the current contracts and avoiding future additional spending
I know considerable funds have been spent on this project. However it is my opinion
7
the remaining spending on current contracts and required future spending of of
Saratoga matching funds is not justified by the benefit. And the project certainly is not
worth the 1.8 million in grant funds.
Here is why I say this:
There are approximately 133 homes on the wrong side of the tracks whose
children would attend Blue Hills
There are approximately 719 homes on the wrong side of 85 whose children
would attend Blue Hills
Blue Hills School is a kindergarten/5th grade elementary school.
How many children is it realistic to expect the use the railroad crossing to walk or bike
to school?
My answer -- less than 5 at the most and more likely 1 or 2 based on my
observations. I've been to Kevin Moran Park at 7:30 to see how many children
crossed over 85 instead of being driven to school -- less than 10.
I am told the contracts with Union Pacific in the amount of $100,000 and BKF
Engineers $172,940 can be canceled and unspent funds saved.
One additional point. John tells me negotiations with Union Pacific are still ongoing
and demands for unrelated changes by Union Pacific as a condition for allowing the
Blue Hills crossing may cost more than the grant intended to be the primary source of
funding.
In conclusion, is spending another $100,000 or more so 1 or 2 children are not
driven to school a prudent decision? I say no and request a review of this project to
consider cancelation ASAP.
Thank you,
Bill Dalton

SARATOGA CITY COUNCIL
MEETING DATE:September 7,2022
DEPARTMENT:Administrative Services
PREPARED BY:Ann Xu, Accountant
SUBJECT:Treasurer’s Report for the Month Ended June 30, 2022
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Review and accept the Treasurer’s Report for the month ended June 30, 2022.
BACKGROUND:
California government code section 41004 requires that the City Treasurer submit to the City Clerk
and the legislative body a written report and accounting of all receipts, disbursements, and fund
balances. The Municipal Code of the City of Saratoga, Article 2-20, Section 2-20.035 designates
the City Manager as the City Treasurer. This report is prepared to fulfill this requirement.
The following attachments provide various financial transaction data for the City of Saratoga’s
Funds collectively as well as specifically for the City’s General (Operating) Fund, including an
attachment from the State Treasurer’s Office of Quarterly LAIF rates from the 1st Quarter of 1977
to present.
FISCAL STATEMENT:
Cash and Investments Balance by Fund
As of June 30, 2022,the City’s unaudited cash and investments totaled $39,158,920. The City
Council’s adopted policy on the Working Capital Reserve Fund states that effective July 1, 2016:
for cash flow purposes and to avoid occurrence of dry period financing, pooled cash from all
funds should not be allowed to fall below $1,000,000. The total pooled cash balance of $39.2
million exceeds the minimum amount required.

City’s Current Financial Position
In accordance with California government code section 53646 (b) (3), the City is financially well
positioned and able to meet its estimated expenditure requirements for the next six months. As of
June 30, 2022, the City’s financial position (Assets $41.4M, Liabilities $9.8M and Fund Equity
$31.6M) remains very strong and there are no issues in meeting financial obligations now or in
the foreseeable future.
The following Fund Balance schedule represents actual funding available for all funds at the end
of the monthly period. This amount differs from the above Cash Summary schedule as assets
and liabilities are components of the fund balance. As illustrated in the summary below, Total
Cash is adjusted by the addition of Total Assets less the amount of Total Liabilities to arrive at
the Ending Fund Balance –which represents the actual amount of funds available.

SARATOGA CITY COUNCIL
MEETING DATE:September 7,2022
DEPARTMENT:City Manager’s Department
PREPARED BY:Britt Avrit, MMC, City Clerk
SUBJECT:Reconsider and confirm findings pursuant to Assembly Bill 361
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Reconsider and confirm findings pursuant to Assembly Bill 361 of the continued public health
officials’ recommendation to social distance and to therefore continue the option of holding City
of Saratoga Brown Act meetings by teleconference.
BACKGROUND:
On October 20, 2021 the City Council adopted a Resolution that enabled the City Council and
all legislative bodies of the City to continue to meet remotely in accordance with AB 361.
This state law allows cities to meet remotely based on a state of emergency proclaimed by the
Governor when the city determines that either: 1) state or local public health officials have
required or recommend social distancing; or 2) the emergency continues to directly impact
the ability to meet safely in person. On March 2, 2022 the City Council voted to continue
virtual meetings for all of the City’s Brown Act bodies and to continue bringing this item for
approval until further notice.
Pursuant to AB 361, staff must bring this item back to the City Council every 30 days. The City
Council may reaffirm that meetings should be conducted virtually due to either social distancing
requirements or guidance from a state or local public health official or a state of emergency that
impacts the ability for meetings to be conducted safely in person.The City Council may continue
to meet virtually under the streamlined rules of AB 361 if the emergency declaration expires so
long as social distancing continues to be required or recommended by a state or local public health
official, and if the City Council has taken action to reconfirm findings pursuant to AB 361. If the
City Council does not continue to reconfirm the findings pursuant to AB 361, and if the Governor’s
emergency declaration expires, the City will not have the option to return to virtual meetings under
the streamlined rules of AB 361 unless a new emergency declaration is proclaimed by the
Governor.

Recommendation Regarding Continued Remote Public Meetings of Governmental Entities
Issued: September 21, 2021
In light of the continued state of emergency related to COVID-19, the County Public Health Officer
continues to recommend that public bodies meet remotely to the extent possible, specifically including
use of newly enacted AB 361 to maintain remote meetings under the Ralph M. Brown Act and similar
laws.
Among other reasons, this recommendation is made due to the continued threat of COVID-19 to the
community, the unique characteristics of public governmental meetings (such as the increased mixing
associated with bringing together people from across the community, the need to enable those who are
immunocompromised or unvaccinated to be able to safely continue to fully participate in public
governmental meetings, and the challenges with fully ascertaining and ensuring compliance with
vaccination and other safety recommendations at such meetings), and the continued increased safety
protection that social distancing provides as one means by which to reduce the risk of COVID-19
transmission. This recommendation does not apply to those meetings of a quasi-judicial nature that
have been already meeting in person prior to September 21, 2021, for example to allow for credibility
determinations of witnesses.
The Health Officer will continue to evaluate this recommendation on an ongoing basis and will
communicate when there is no longer such a recommendation with respect to meetings for public
bodies.

PREPARED BY:Britt Avrit, MMC, City Clerk
SUBJECT:Resolution Amending City of Saratoga Conflict of Interest Code
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Adopt the Resolution amending the City of Saratoga Conflict of Interest Code.
BACKGROUND:
The Political Reform Act of 1974 (“the Act”) (Government Code Sections 81000, et seq.) requires
that cities and other local agencies adopt a Conflict of Interest Code (Code).
The Act requires that the Code 1) lists the classifications which involve making,or participating
in making,decisions which have a reasonably foreseeable material effect on an economic interest
and 2) lists the disclosure categories for those classifications that are reportable based on the scope
of the decision-making authority of the classification.
The Political Reform Act further requires the City Council to act as the code-reviewing body of
the Code and requires local agencies to review its Code biennially. The City Council updated the
City’s Code on September 16, 2020 via Resolution 20-065.
This Resolution updates and re-establishes those designated classifications and the associated
disclosure categories for the City’s Code.

SARATOGA CITY COUNCIL
MEETING DATE:September 7, 2022
DEPARTMENT:Public Works Department
PREPARED BY:John Cherbone, Public Works Director
SUBJECT:Grant of Landscape Easements –Prides Crossing (LLAD Zone 22)
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
1.Adopt Resolution (Attachment A) accepting grant of landscape easement (Attachment B)
located at 12792 Miller Avenue (APN 386-47-036)
2. Adopt Resolution (Attachment C) accepting grant of landscape easement (Attachment D)
located at 12799 Miller Avenue (APN 386-47-031)
BACKGROUND:
During the design phase of the renovation of the Prides Crossing South entryway it was
discovered that the improvements were built on private property without the proper easements
that the City requires. The entry improvements were built 50+ years ago in the late 1960s as part
of the larger Prides Crossing neighborhood.
Landscape and Lighting Assessment District (LLAD) Zone 22, Prides Crossing, was created in
1991 to provide for the maintenance and repair of the landscaping along sections of Cox Avenue
and Prospect Road including the Miller Avenue entrance at Cox. It appears when the assessment
district was formed the proper easements or rights-of-way were not acquired.
In order to move forward with the entryway improvements and to provide for future
maintenance,the City asked the property owners at 12792 and 12799 Miller Avenue if they

SARATOGA CITY COUNCIL
MEETING DATE:September 7, 2022
DEPARTMENT:Administrative Services
PREPARED BY:Nick Pegueros
SUBJECT:Award of Contract for the 2022 Comprehensive Fee Study Project
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Authorize City Manager to execute an agreement with Matrix Consulting Group for the 2022
Comprehensive Fee Study Project in an amount not to exceed $40,020.
BACKGROUND:
When City Council considered fee updates effective July 1, 2022, City staff identified the need for
an independent Cost Allocation Plan and Cost of Services studies (“Comprehensive Fee Study”).
The study costs were included in the budget at $40,000 and City Council adopted the proposed
budget at their June 15 meeting.
City staff requested proposals (RFP) for a Comprehensive Fee Study on July 20 and received three
proposals by the August 18 deadline. We reviewed the proposals for responsiveness to the RFP
and conducted interviews with the three respondents. The following summarizes fixed fee costs to
complete the project. Matrix Consulting Group’s staff is based in the Bay Area and will not incur
travel costs for onsite meetings in Saratoga. Both RCS and MGT’s staff are located outside of the
Bay Area and require payment for time and travel costs if the City requires onsite meetings above
the fees listed below.
Matrix Consulting:$40,020
RCS: $42,000
MGT: $65,355
Considering the proposals and information collected during the interviews, City staff recommends
awarding a contract for the 2022 Comprehensive Fee Study Project to Matrix Consulting Group
in an amount not to exceed $40,020. The adopted 2022-23 budget has sufficient funds for the base
contract by reducing funds available for other professional services in the Finance Program by
$20.

General Requirements
As to all of the checked insurance requirements above, the following shall apply:
1.Insurance Provisions. The policies are to contain, or be endorsed to contain, the
following provisions:
The City, its officers, officials, employees, agents and volunteers (each an “additional
insured”) are to be covered as insureds with the same coverage and limits available to the
named insured regarding: liability arising out of activities performed by or on behalf of
the Consultant; premises owned, occupied or used by the Consultant; or automobiles
owned, leased, hired or borrowed by the Consultant. The coverage shall contain no
special limitations on the scope of the protection afforded to the City, its officers,
officials, employees, agents or volunteers. Any available insurance proceeds broader
than or in excess of the minimum insurance coverage requirements and/or limits specified
in this agreement shall be available to the additional insured. The requirements for
coverage and limits shall be (1) the minimum coverage and limits specified in this
agreement; or (2) the broader coverage and maximum limits of coverage of any insurance
policy or proceeds available to the named insured; whichever is greater. The additional
insured coverage under Consultant’s policy shall be ''primary and non-contributory" and
will not seek contribution from the City’s insurance or self-insurance and shall be at least
as broad as CG 20 01 04 13. This requirement does not apply to errors and omissions
insurance.
Any failure to comply with reporting provisions of the policies shall not affect coverage
provided to the City, its officers, officials, employees or volunteers.
The Consultant’s insurance shall apply separately to each insured against whom claim is
made or suit is brought, except with respect to the limits of the insurer's liability.
2. Deductibles and Self Insured Retentions. Any deductibles or self-insured retentions
must be declared to and approved by the City. At the option of the City, either (1) the insurer

Rev. 8/2015 City of Saratoga Services Contract – Exhibit B Page 3 of 4
umbrella or excess insurance. Any umbrella or excess insurance shall contain or be endorsed to
contain a provision that such coverage shall also apply on a primary and non-contributory basis
for the benefit of City (if agreed to in a written contract or agreement) before the City’s own
insurance or self-insurance shall be called upon to protect it as a named insured.
3.Waiver of Subrogation. Consultant hereby grants to City a waiver of any right to
subrogation which any insurer of Consultant may acquire against City by virtue of the payment
of any loss under such insurance. Consultant agrees to obtain any endorsement that may be
necessary to effect this waiver of subrogation, but this provision applies regardless of whether
City has received a waiver of subrogation endorsement from the insurer.
4.Verification of Coverage. Consultant shall furnish the City with original certificates and
amendatory endorsements effecting coverage required by this Exhibit. All certificates and
endorsements are to be received and approved by the City before work commences. The City
reserves the right to require at any time complete, certified copies of all required insurance
policies, including endorsements effecting the coverage required by these specifications and
failure to exercise this right shall not constitute a waiver of any of City’s rights pursuant to this
agreement.
5. Maintenance of Coverage. Consultant shall not cancel, assign, or change any policy of
insurance required by this agreement or engage in any act or omission that will cause its insurer
to cancel any insurance policy required by this agreement except after providing 30 days prior
notice to the City. If an insurance policy required by this agreement is unilaterally cancelled or
changed by the insurer, Consultant shall immediately provide written notice to the City and
obtain substitute insurance meeting the requirements of this agreement. Nothing in this
paragraph relieves Consultant of its obligation to maintain all insurance required by this
agreement at all times during the term of the agreement.
6.Claims Made Policies. If any of the required policies provide claims-made coverage,
the coverage shall be maintained for a period of five years after completion of the contract.

prior acts or tail coverage applicable to said five-year period.

no less than A: VII.

the same requirements and provisions of this agreement including the indemnity and insurance
requirements to the extent they apply to the scope of the subcontractor's work. Subcontractors
hired by Consultant shall agree to be bound to Consultant and City in the same manner and to the
same extent as Consultant is bound to the City under this agreement. Subcontractors shall further
agree to include these same provisions with any sub-subcontractor. Consultant shall provide
subcontractor with a copy of the indemnity and insurance provisions of this agreement as a part

City of Saratoga Services Contract
Exhibit C – General Provisions
1.INDEPENDENT CONTRACTOR. City requires the services of a qualified consultant
to provide the work product described in Exhibit A because it lacks the qualified
personnel to provide the specified work product. Consultant is qualified to provide the
required work product and is agreeable to providing such work product on the terms and
conditions in this agreement.
1.1 In General. At all times during the term of this agreement, Consultant shall be
an independent contractor and shall not be an employee of City. Consultant shall
complete the Scope of Work hereunder in accordance with currently approved
methods and practices in Consultant's field. No relationship of employer and
employee is created by this agreement between the City and Consultant or any
subcontractor or employee of Consultant. City shall have the right to control
Consultant only with respect to specifying the results to be obtained from
Consultant pursuant to this agreement. City shall not have the right to control the
means by which Consultant accomplishes services rendered pursuant to this
agreement. Any terms in this agreement referring to direction from City shall be
construed as providing for direction as to policy and the result of the Consultant’s
work only, and not as to the means by which such a result is obtained.
1.2 Non-Exclusive Contract. Nothing contained in this agreement shall be
construed as limiting the right of Consultant to engage in Consultant's profession
separate and apart from this agreement so long as such activities do not interfere
or conflict with the performance by Consultant of the obligations set forth in this
agreement. Interference or conflict will be determined at the sole discretion of the
City.
1.3 Standard of Care. Consultant shall complete the Scope of Work required
pursuant to this agreement in the manner and according to the standards observed
by a competent practitioner of the profession in which Consultant is engaged in
the geographical area in which Consultant practices its profession. All work
product of whatsoever nature which Consultant delivers to City pursuant to this
agreement shall be prepared in a substantial, first class and workmanlike manner
and conform to the standards of quality normally observed by a person practicing
in Consultant’s profession.
1.4 Qualifications. Consultant represents and warrants to City that the Consultant is
qualified to perform the services as contemplated by this agreement and that all
work performed under this agreement shall be performed only by personnel under
the supervision of the Consultant as an employee or, if authorized by the Scope of
Work, a subcontractor. All personnel engaged in the work shall be fully qualified
and shall be authorized, licensed and certified under state and local law to perform
such work if authorization, licensing or certification is required. The Consultant
shall commit adequate resources and time to complete the project within the

Contractor: Project Name:
Rev. 8/2015 City of Saratoga Services Contract – Exhibit C Page 2 of 10
1.5 Use of City Equipment. City shall not be responsible for any damage to persons
or property as a result of the use, misuse or failure of any equipment used by
Consultant, or by any of its employees, even though such equipment be furnished,
rented or loaned to Consultant by City.
1.6 Payment of Taxes and Other Expenses. Should City, in its discretion, or a
relevant taxing authority, including, but not limited to the Internal Revenue
Service or the State Employment Development Division, determine that the
Consultant is an employee for purposes of collection of any employment taxes,
the amounts payable under this agreement shall be reduced by amounts equal to
both the employee and employer portions of the tax due (and offsetting any
credits for amounts already paid by the Consultant which can be applied against
this liability). City shall then forward those amounts to the relevant taxing
authority. Should a relevant taxing authority determine a liability for past
services performed by the Consultant for City, upon notification of such fact by
the City, the Consultant shall promptly remit such amount due or arrange with the
City to have the amount due withheld from future payments to the Consultant
under this agreement (again, offsetting any amounts already paid by the
Consultant which can be applied as a credit against such liability). Any
determination of employment status above shall be solely for the purposes of the
particular tax in question, and for all other purposes of this agreement, The
Consultant shall not be considered an employee of City. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, should any court, arbitrator, or administrative authority determine that
the Consultant is an employee for any other purpose, then the Consultant agrees to
a reduction in the City's financial liability so that the City's total expenses under
this agreement are not greater than they would have been had the court, arbitrator,
or administrative authority determined that the Consultant was not an employee.
2.COMMUNICATION AND NOTICES. The Administrator designated in section 4 on
page 1 of this agreement is authorized to receive information, interpret and define City's
policies consistent with this agreement, and communicate with Consultant concerning
this agreement. All correspondence and other communications shall be directed to or
through the Administrator or the Administrator’s designee.
2.1 In General. All notices or communication concerning a party's compliance with
the terms of this agreement shall be in writing and may be given either personally,
by certified mail, return receipt requested, or by overnight express carrier. The
notice shall be deemed to have been given and received on the date delivered in
person or the date upon which the postal authority or overnight express carrier
indicates that the mailing was delivered to the address of the receiving party. The
parties shall make good faith efforts to provide advance courtesy notice of any
notices or communications hereunder via e-mail. However, under no
circumstances shall such courtesy notice satisfy the notice requirements set forth
above; nor shall lack of such courtesy notice affect the validity of service pursuant
to the notice requirement set forth above.
2.2 Addresses for Notice. Notices or communications shall be given to the parties at
the addresses set forth in section 4 (“Contract Administration”) unless otherwise
118

cost. Consultant shall submit all billings to City and City shall pay such billings in the
manner specified in this paragraph. Payment shall be made payable to Consultant and
delivered to the address specified in section 4 on page 1 of this agreement. The making

the liability of the Consultant to correct or revise unsatisfactory work, even though the
unsatisfactory character of such work may not have been apparent or detected at the time
such payment was made. City may withhold payment to Consultant in any instance in
which the Consultant has failed or refused to satisfy any material obligation provided for

therewith Consultant shall indemnify and hold City harmless from any and all liability

10.2 Intellectual Property. Consultant represents and warrants that it has the legal
right to utilize all intellectual property it will utilize in the performance of this
agreement. Consultant further represents that it shall ensure City has the legal
right to utilize all intellectual property involved in and/or resulting from
Consultant’s performance of this agreement. Consultant shall indemnify and hold
City harmless from all loss and liability, including attorneys’ fees, court costs and
all other litigation expenses for any infringement of the patent rights, copyright,
trade secret or any other proprietary right or trademark, and all other intellectual
property claims of any person or persons in consequence of the use by City, or
any of its officers or agents, of articles or services to be supplied in the
performance of this agreement.

any services pursuant to this agreement, Consultant shall retain and make
available to the City or any party designated by the City, upon written request by
City, this agreement, and such books, documents and records of Consultant (and
any books, documents, and records of any subcontractor(s)) that are necessary or
convenient for audit purposes to certify the nature and extent of the reasonable
cost of services to City.
10.4 Use of Recycled Paper and Electronic Documents. Consultant shall prepare
and submit all reports, written studies and other printed material on recycled
paper to the extent it is available at equal or less cost than virgin paper.
Documents shall be printed on both sides of the page and City shall be provided

unusual circumstances make it infeasible to do so.
11.CONFIDENTIAL INFORMATION. Consultant shall hold any confidential
information received from City in the course of performing this agreement in trust and
confidence and will not reveal such confidential information to any person or entity,
either during the term of the agreement or at any time thereafter. Upon expiration of this
agreement, or termination as provided herein, Consultant shall return materials which
contain any confidential information to City. Consultant may keep one copy for its
confidential file. For purposes of this paragraph, confidential information is defined as all
information disclosed to Consultant which relates to City's past, present, and future
activities, as well as activities under this agreement, which information is not otherwise
of public record under California law.
12.RESPONSIBILITY OF CONSULTANT. Consultant shall take all responsibility for
the work, shall bear all losses and damages directly or indirectly resulting to Consultant,

difficulties, accidents, occurrences or other causes to the extent predicated on active or
passive negligence of the Consultant or of any subcontractor.
122
Contractor: Project Name:
Rev. 8/2015 City of Saratoga Services Contract – Exhibit C Page 7 of 10
13.INDEMNIFICATION. Consultant and City agree that City, its employees, agents and
officials shall be fully protected from any loss, injury, damage, claim, lawsuit, cost,
expense, attorneys fees, litigation costs, defense costs, court costs or any other cost
incurred in relation to, as a consequence of or arising out of or in any way attributable
actually, allegedly or impliedly, in whole or in part, to the performance of this agreement
as set forth below. Accordingly, the provisions of this indemnity provision are intended
by the parties to be interpreted and construed to provide the fullest protection possible
under the law to the City. Consultant acknowledges that City would not enter into this
agreement in the absence of the commitment of Consultant to indemnify and protect City
as set forth below.
13.1 General Indemnity. To the fullest extent permitted by law, Consultant shall
indemnify and hold harmless City, its employees, agents and officials, from any
liability, claims, suits, actions, arbitration proceedings, administrative
proceedings, regulatory proceedings, losses, expenses or costs (including, without
limitation, costs and fees of alternative dispute resolution and litigation) of any
kind whatsoever without restriction or limitation, incurred in relation to, as a
consequence of or arising out of or in any way attributable actually, allegedly or
impliedly, in whole or in part, to Consultant, or its employees, agents, or
subcontractors. All obligations under this provision are to be paid by Consultant
as they are incurred by the City.
13.2 Duty to Defend. In addition to Consultant’s obligation to indemnify City,
Consultant shall defend, in all legal, equitable, administrative, or special
proceedings, with counsel approved by the City, the City and its councilmembers,
officers, and employees, immediately upon tender to Consultant of the claim in
any form or at any stage of an action or proceeding, whether or not liability is
established. An allegation or determination that persons other than Consultant are
responsible for the claim does not relieve Consultant from its separate and distinct
obligation to defend. The obligation to defend extends through final judgment,
including exhaustion of any appeals. The defense obligation includes an
obligation to provide independent defense counsel if Consultant asserts that
liability is caused in whole or in part by the negligence or willful misconduct of
the indemnified party. If it is finally adjudicated that liability was caused solely by
the negligence or willful misconduct of an indemnified party, Consultant may
submit a claim to the City for reimbursement of reasonable attorneys’ fees and
defense costs in proportion to the established comparative liability of the
indemnified party.
13.3 Limitation on Indemnity. Without affecting the rights of City under any
provision of this agreement or this section, Consultant shall not be required to
defend, indemnify, and hold harmless City as set forth above for liability
attributable to the sole fault of City, provided such sole fault is determined by
agreement between the parties or the findings of a court of competent jurisdiction.
This exception will apply only in instances where the City is shown to have been
solely at fault and not in instances where Consultant is solely or partially at fault
or in instances where City's fault accounts for only a percentage of the liability
involved. In those instances, the obligation of Consultant will be all-inclusive and
123
Contractor: Project Name:
Rev. 8/2015 City of Saratoga Services Contract – Exhibit C Page 8 of 10
City will be held harmless, indemnified, and defended for all liability incurred,
even though a percentage of the liability is attributable to conduct of the City.
13.4 Acknowledgement. Consultant acknowledges that its obligation pursuant to this
section extends to liability attributable to City, if that liability is less than the sole
fault of City. Consultant has no obligation under this agreement for liability
proven in a court of competent jurisdiction or by written agreement between the
parties to be the sole fault of City.
13.5 Scope of Consultant Obligation. The obligations of Consultant under this or
any other provision of this agreement will not be limited by the provisions of any
workers' compensation act or similar act. Consultant expressly waives its statutory
immunity under such statutes or laws as to City, its employees and officials.
13.6 Subcontractors. Consultant agrees to obtain executed indemnity agreements
with provisions identical to those set forth here in this section from each and
every subcontractor, sub tier contractor or any other person or entity involved by,
for, with or on behalf of Consultant in the performance or subject matter of this
agreement.
13.7 No Waiver. Failure of City to monitor compliance with these requirements
imposes no additional obligations on City and will in no way act as a waiver of
any rights hereunder. This obligation to indemnify and defend City as set forth
herein is binding on the successors, assigns, or heirs of Consultant and shall
survive the termination of this agreement or this section. For purposes of Section
2782 of the Civil Code the parties hereto recognize and agree that this agreement
is not a construction contract. By execution of this agreement, Consultant
acknowledges and agrees that it has read and understands the provisions hereof
and that this paragraph is a material element of consideration. City approval of
insurance required by this agreement does not relieve the Consultant or
subcontractors from liability under this section.
13.8 Relation to Insurance Obligations. The defense and indemnification obligations
of this agreement are undertaken in addition to, and shall not in any way be
limited by, the insurance obligations contained in this agreement.
14.DEFAULT AND REMEDIES.
14.1 Events of default. Each of the following shall constitute an event of default
hereunder:
(a)Failure by Consultant to perform any obligation under this agreement and
failure to cure such breach immediately upon receiving notice of such
breach, if the breach is such that the City determines the health, welfare, or
safety of the public is immediately endangered; or
(b)Failure by either party to perform any obligation under this agreement and
failure to cure such breach within fifteen (15) days of receiving notice of
such breach (except for breaches subject to subparagraph (a), above);
124
Contractor: Project Name:
Rev. 8/2015 City of Saratoga Services Contract – Exhibit C Page 9 of 10
provided that if the nature of the breach is such that the non-breaching
party determines it will reasonably require more than fifteen (15) days to
cure, the breaching party shall not be in default if it promptly commences
the cure and diligently proceeds to completion of the cure.
14.2 Remedies upon default. Upon any default, the non-defaulting party shall have
the right to immediately suspend or terminate this agreement, seek specific
performance and/or seek damages to the full extent allowed by law. City shall
have the right to contract with another party to perform this agreement
14.3 No Waiver. Failure by City to seek any remedy for any default hereunder shall
not constitute a waiver of any other rights hereunder or any right to seek any
remedy for any subsequent default.
15. TERMINATION. Either party may terminate this agreement with or without cause by
providing 10 days’ notice in writing to the other party. The City may terminate this
agreement at any time without prior notice in the event that Consultant commits a
material breach of the terms of this agreement. Upon termination, this agreement shall
become of no further force or affect whatsoever and each of the parties hereto shall be
relieved and discharged from the rights and obligations of this agreement, subject to
payment for acceptable services rendered prior to the expiration of the notice of
termination and delivery to City of any work in progress, completed work, supplies,
equipment, and other materials produced as a part of, or acquired in connection with the
performance of this agreement, and any completed or partially completed work which, if
this agreement had been completed, would have been required to be furnished to City.
Notwithstanding the foregoing and section 2 on page 1, this section and the provisions of
this agreement concerning insurance (Exhibit B), Funding Agency Requirements (as set
forth in Exhibit D if applicable), Work Product and Records, Confidential Information,
Responsibility of Consultant, Indemnification, Default and Remedies, Litigation, and
Jurisdiction and Severability shall survive termination or expiration of this agreement.
16.DISPUTE RESOLUTION. The parties shall make a good faith effort to settle any
dispute or claim arising under this agreement. If the parties fail to resolve such disputes
or claims, they shall submit them to non-binding mediation in California at shared
expense of the parties for at least 8 hours of mediation. If mediation does not arrive at a
satisfactory result, arbitration, if agreed to by all parties, or litigation may be pursued. In
the event any dispute resolution processes are involved, each party shall bear its own
costs and attorneys’ fees.
17.LITIGATION. If any litigation is commenced between parties to this agreement
concerning any provision hereof or the rights and duties of any person in relation thereto,
each party shall bear its own attorneys’ fees and costs.
18.JURISDICTION AND SEVERABILITY. This agreement shall be administered and
interpreted under the laws of the State of California. Jurisdiction of litigation arising from
this agreement shall be in that state and venue shall be in Santa Clara County, California.
If any part of this agreement is found to conflict with applicable laws, such part shall be
inoperative, null and void insofar as it conflicts with said laws, but the remainder of this
agreement shall be in full force and effect.

19.NOTICE OF NON-RENEWAL. Consultant understands and agrees that there is no
representation, implication, or understanding that the City will request that work product
provided by Consultant under this agreement be supplemented or continued by
Consultant under a new agreement following expiration or termination of this agreement.
Consultant waives all rights or claims to notice or hearing respecting any failure by City
to continue to request or retain all or any portion of the work product from Consultant
following the expiration or termination of this agreement.
20.PARTIES IN INTEREST. This agreement is entered only for the benefit of the parties
executing this agreement and not for the benefit of any other individual, entity or person.
21.WAIVER. Neither the acceptance of work or payment for work pursuant to this
agreement shall constitute a waiver of any rights or obligations arising under this
agreement. The failure by the City to enforce any of Consultant’s obligations or to
exercise City's rights shall in no event be deemed a waiver of the right to do so thereafter.

Director of Administrative Services
City of Saratoga

Saratoga, CA 95070
Dear Mr. Pegueros,
The Matrix Consulting Group is pleased to have this opportunity to submit a proposal to
perform Cost Allocation Plan and Cost of Service Studies for the City of Saratoga. The Matrix
Consulting Group stands out from other firms for the following reasons:
• Experience in cost allocation and cost of service studies: Our firm and team have
conducted 150+ cost of service studies for municipalities over the last 20 years
across the United States, with recent Bay Area clients including Cupertino, Los Altos
Hills, Mill Valley, Palo Alto, Santa Clara, Sonoma, Sunnyvale, and South San Francisco.
• Project team expertise: Our proposed project Executive, Courtney Ramos, is a vice
president with the firm and leader of the Financial Services practice. Khushboo Ingle,
our proposed project manager, is a member of GFOA and CSMFO and trained in cost
allocation and revenue best practices. They have worked on all of our Financial
Services projects over the last 10 years.
• Timeliness of products and transfer of knowledge: We are committed to ensuring
that all client deadlines are met and that along with providing defensible work
products, there is a transfer of the intangible knowledge and recommendations
associated with enhancing revenue recovery.
I am the firm’s president, authorized to negotiate on the firm’s behalf and bind it contractually.
Courtney Ramos, a vice president and proposed project executive, can provide clarifications
on this proposal, which I confirm will be valid for 90 days. We can be reached at the address
and phone number listed below, or via email at rbrady@matrixcg.net and
cramos@matrixcg.net.

1 Background
The Matrix Consulting Group specializes in providing analytical services to local
governments to assist them in providing highly responsive, efficient, and effective
services to their residents. Our firm’s history and composition are summarized below:
• We were founded in 2002 and incorporated in California, with headquarters in San
Mateo, and offices in 11 other states.
• We are comprised of 24 full time and three part time highly experienced
management consultants who specialize in the analysis of local government
functions encompassing the entire spectrum of critical operational areas.
• Since our founding, we have worked with over 1,500 government agencies,
conducting cost of service and management studies providing recommendations
relating to operations, improvements, and cost recovery.
The market and service focus of the Matrix Consulting Group has always been financial,
management, staffing and operations analysis of local government. The following
outlines the core services provided by our firm:
Administrative (HR, Finance, IT) Fire and EMS
Community Development Fleet Management
Corrections and Justice Law Enforcement
Emergency Communications Parks, Recreation, and Libraries
Financial Services Public Works and Utilities
No other firm has a better understanding of how public organizations operate, or how to
help them thrive.
Cost Allocation Plan Experience
Our firm has extensive experience developing Full Cost and OMB compliant Cost
Allocation Plans, as well as Indirect Cost Rate Proposals for various municipal
organizations across the United States. Whether we are working with large cities, small
towns, special districts, or individual departments, our goal is to document and define the
services being provided, and accurately allocate costs to all beneficiaries. The following
points highlight our experience with developing cost allocation processes and metrics:
• Administrative Functions: Our firm has extensive experience in evaluating
processes and functions associated with City Clerk, Finance, Human Resources,
132
Proposal to Conduct Cost Allocation Plan and Cost of Service Studies Saratoga, CA
Matrix Consulting Group Page 2
and Purchasing. From basic tasks and responsibilities to process improvement
and oversight controls, our project teams can:
- Identify core service functions, such as payroll, employee benefits, budget
preparation, agenda and commission support.
- Review current data metrics, and work with staff to ensure resulting
allocations are appropriate, fair, and equitable.
- Recognize services that are not in direct support of departments, including
business licenses and elections, and ensure they are accurately identified,
but not further allocated.
Our project teams understand the core services associated with administrative
functions, as well as the time associated with process completion, and are adept
at helping staff determine daily, weekly, monthly, or annual time spent on a task.
These assumptions form the core basis of a cost allocation plan, and should be
defensible not only through documentation, but also by City staff.
• Governmental Functions: The Matrix Consulting Group has worked with and been
a part of managerial studies relating to City Manager and Legal services.
Additionally, we have extensive experience working with, and presenting to various
boards, councils, and subcommittees. Our understanding of the various types of
services provided allow our project teams to assess what services are best for
allocation, including:
- Categorizing services and support that benefit the City as an organization,
such as contract negotiation, and approval of internal policies.
- Identifying services that benefit the City economically, such as lobbying,
and economic development, which should not be allocated.
Our team understands how these costs can and should be treated in both a Full
Cost Plan and OMB compliant plan, including making staff aware of common
practices, as well as aggressive allocation options.
• Internal Services: The Matrix Consulting Group has significant experience
evaluating services and functions associated with Facilities Maintenance, Fleet
Services, and Information Technology. While these services can be part of the
general fund or internal services, their allocation is important when trying to
understand the indirect costs associated with any Fund, Department, or Program.
Our project teams work with these departments to:
- Review existing allocation processes and metrics to ensure compliance
with state and federal regulations.
133
Proposal to Conduct Cost Allocation Plan and Cost of Service Studies Saratoga, CA
Matrix Consulting Group Page 3
- Determine if newer metrics, or metric alterations could provide more
accurate allocations.
Our project team is committed to ensuring that all cost centers being allocated by our
clients comply with state and local laws, use fair and equitable allocation metrics, and
are documented and defensible. The following table provides a sampling of jurisdictions
for whom we have provided similar services within the last five years, including the types
of services provided to each jurisdiction, relevant to the requested scope of services:

Cost of Services and User Fee Study Experience
Our firm has extensive experience conducting comprehensive user fee studies for a
variety of municipal organizations and departments. When conducting comprehensive
user fee studies, the focus is often on Community Development (building, planning, and
134
Proposal to Conduct Cost Allocation Plan and Cost of Service Studies Saratoga, CA
Matrix Consulting Group Page 4
engineering) and Parks and Recreation services. The following points highlight our
experience in these areas:
• Community Development: Our firm has extensive experience in evaluating
development review permitting functions for Building, Planning, Engineering, and
Fire Prevention. From the basic process steps for submitting, reviewing,
inspecting, and approving applications and permits to development of processes,
procedures, and cost recovery goals, our project teams can address topics:
- The best metric for assessing fees, such as building valuation, square
footage, construction estimate, or number of fixtures.
- Appropriate deposit amounts, guidelines, and processes to ensure actual
cost recovery is achieved.
- Setting fees at levels that both recover costs but are not prohibitive to the
community.
- Cost recovery and implementation options for support services including
General Plan Updates, Technology Fees, GIS, etc.
Beyond understanding processes and assessing time estimates provided, our
project teams are aware of the cross-departmental support associated with
application and permit services. These costs are included in the full cost
calculation and can be expressed as part of the established fee or pulled out as a
separate fee.
• Parks and Recreation: The Matrix Consulting Group has worked with every type of
recreation function, including traditional parks and recreation, libraries, and open
space preserves. Our experience spans master and strategic planning, park
condition assessments, and program staffing and cost recovery. Our project
teams are well versed in the areas that most impact cost recovery, including:
- The best use of a tiered recovery approach, such as resident versus non-
resident, or profit versus non-profit.
- Setting fees according to the cost recovery pyramid to ensure that premium
services have a higher cost recovery.
The ultimate goal in reviewing parks and recreation costs for service, is to ensure
that fees and rates are set at a level that allows the City to continue to serve the
community in a manner consistent with current goals and commitments.
Our firm also has extensive experience in calculating cost of services for administrative
functions such as Finance and City Clerk, as well as public safety services relating to
135

Police, Fire Prevention, and EMS. The following table includes a sampling of California

2 Methodology and Project Timeline
This section of the proposal provides a description of our methods by which we will fulfill
the Full Cost Allocation Plan and Cost of Services/User Fee Study requested by the City,
including a detailed work plan and timeline. It includes a sub-section dedicated to the
optional scopes requested in the City’s RFP.
Project Approach
The Matrix Consulting Group works with a wide variety of clients ranging from small
towns to major metropolitan cities in over 44 states across the U.S. and in Canada. Every
project is unique, but it is managed according to the following essential project approach:
We believe very strongly in the science of our craft, especially as it relates to cost
allocation and cost of service. Our firm utilizes quality control techniques including:
• Project Management: Ensuring our projects meet the needs and timelines of our
clients are accomplished through the following:
- The project manager and lead analyst develop general and project specific
data collection plans and interview guides.
- All project work activities are defined in advance and tied to each project
team member, deliverables, the schedule and the budget.
- We have frequent client review meetings to discuss the quality and direction
of the project through interim deliverables and draft documents.
• Numerical Results: Financial analyses are used to develop budgets and
projections, and often are subject to public oversight and review. For this reason,
our firm ensures data determined quality control through the following:
- Expenditure data used in cost models are tied to budget documents.
- Revenue projections developed are based on existing workload and
activities and can be reconciled based on quantitative assumptions.

These project management approaches have resulted in all projects being delivered at a
high level of quality, on time and on budget.
Required Studies
The City of Saratoga seeks proposals for Cost Allocation Plan and Cost of Services
studies to identify cost recovery options that will contribute to the development of a long-
term fiscal strategy. These scopes of work can be conducted concurrently, as there are
certain economies of scale that can be achieved by conducting them simultaneously. The
following subsections outline our approach to project-wide, cost allocation plan, and cost
of service study specific tasks.
1 Project-Wide Tasks
There are four key tasks that would initiate this project and then the tasks would vary
based upon each scope of work. The following tasks would be conducted for all scopes
of work.
Task 1 Data Collection
Prior to any initial meetings, the Matrix Consulting Group will provide the City with a list
of initial data requirements for the study. This will allow our project team to review this
information thoroughly in preparation for initial discussions with staff. A common list of
data collection items include:
• List of current fees charged by each City department.
• Budget and actual expenditures on a fund, department, and line-item basis.
• Most recent completed fiscal year revenue reports.
• List of budgeted personnel by fund, department, and division.
• Policies and procedures regarding cost recovery.
The provision of these items will allow our project team to familiarize themselves with
the City’s structure and current practices.

Task 2 Study Objectives and Project Schedule
Once the data has been collected, the project team will then meet with designated City
staff to discuss any issues identified by the project team, as well as to clarify any existing
concerns held by the City regarding the current cost allocation and fee study
methodology. Discussions will include:
• Review of the City’s specific needs and critical issues surrounding development
and implementation of the cost allocation plan and cost of service study.
• Opportunities for improvement and restructuring of previous plans and studies,
and/or review and discussion of existing cost allocation methodologies and fee
study calculations.
• Discussion of concerns or issues that should be addressed during the
development of the study.
• Discussions regarding current fee structure and any potential changes.
• Legal issues or concerns with implementation of new or proposed fees.
At the culmination of the meeting, the project team and the designated City staff will leave
with a greater understanding of the overall approach and methodology that will be taken
by the project team to conduct the User Fee, Impact Fee, and Cost Allocation study.

Task 3 Present the Final Report to Key Stakeholders
The presentation of results to City officials and/or stakeholders is critical to the success
of these studies. The objective of this final step is to present a succinct summary that
provides decision makers with key information. The Matrix Consulting Group will attend
and present the Study at up to three (3) Committee or Council Meetings, including any fee
adoption hearings. We believe that these number of meetings is typically sufficient to
ensure that there is buy-in from the stakeholders.

2 Cost Allocation Plan Tasks
The City of Saratoga has an existing Cost Allocation Plan that was developed in 2006.
Through this scope of service, the Matrix Consulting Group will work with City staff to
define the purpose, uses, and goals for the overhead cost allocation plan, developing a
plan that is both accurate and appropriate for the City’s current needs. The following
tasks provide a detailed look at our proposed work plan for the review and development
of the Full Cost Allocation Plan.
Task 1 Interview Staff and Gather Allocation Metrics
The project team would review the City’s existing financial structure to identify City
departments and services to be allocated. To structure a custom cost allocation model,
our project team would perform the following:
• Review and discuss the accounting (fund and organizational levels) structure of
the City based upon the budgeted expenditures to identify any anomalies from
previous years.
• Identify and meet specific central services departments to develop allocation
bases and ensure that the plan reflects the following aspects:
- All current services provided by the Department are identified and
documented within the Cost Allocation Plan.
- Allocation bases discussed to be utilized are reflective of the current level
of effort and most relatable to the service being performed.
The following is a sample flowchart visually representing the outcome of these
discussions, the first level is the central services department, the second level is the
identified service category, and the third level is the basis by which costs will be allocated:

• Discuss alternative allocation procedures, including possible outcomes and
potential impacts of each method.
The points above provide examples of the types of detailed and in-depth discussions that
the project team will have with City Departments involved in the cost allocation process.
At this point in the process, the project team would reach out to each department and ask
for any specific allocation metrics such as purchase orders, invoices, sq. ft. per facility
maintained, etc.

Task 2 Review Allocation Metrics
Based upon units of service identified in Task 1 and the allocation metrics collected, the
project team would put together allocation statistic workbooks for review with specific
Central Service Departments. The purpose of these workbooks is to review the initial
results of the allocation metrics gathered by the project team. The following graphic
shows an example of the allocation workbook:
Fund Dept Desc
# of AR Transactions
per Fund/Dept Allocation %
1 10 City Manager 3 0.87%
1 16 Human Resources 30 8.75%
1 20 City Attorney 30 8.75%
1 30 Police 68 19.83%
1 35 Fire 1 0.29%
1 40 Development Services 7 2.04%
1 50 Public Works Streets 5 1.46%
1 50 Public Works Facilities 1 0.29%
1 50 Public Works Community Services 185 53.94%
10 Water 1 0.29%
14 Sewer 8 2.33%
29 Self-Insured Fund Liability In 4 1.17%
TOTAL 343 100.00%
In the sample graphic provided, based upon the number of AR Transactions per
Fund/Department, the primary support is for Public Works Community Services (54%) for
all the Parks and Recreation transactions, followed by Police (20%). Based upon the
results of this sample, the project team would verify with Finance that the statistics were
allocated to the appropriate fund/department and that the resulting percentage is
reflective of the support being provided by the Accounts Receivable staff and function.
142
Proposal to Conduct Cost Allocation Plan and Cost of Service Studies Saratoga, CA

This type of detailed review is critical for the development of a defensible cost allocation
plan. It also ensures that departmental staff and city staff are comfortable with the use
of the allocation metrics and the support that those metrics represent.

Task 3 Structure and Prepare Draft Full Cost Allocation Model
Once the Central Service departments and administrative functional areas have agreed
upon the appropriate allocation metrics for their services; allowable administrative or
other indirect costs are allocated to each benefiting City department, or fund.
During the development of the cost allocation plan, the project team will ensure that any
expenses included in the plan are vetted and reviewed with Finance staff as well as
incorporate any direct reimbursements. The results of the draft custom cost allocation
model will be provided to City staff in numerical format in excel prior to the development
of a draft report.

Task 4 Finalize the Cost Allocation Plan
Upon review and approval of the draft cost plan by central service departments and the
Finance Department, the project team will finalize the Cost Allocation Plan and report.
The final deliverables associated with the Cost Allocation Plan will be:
• Cost allocation plan report: including all detailed allocation schedules, cost
schedules, summary schedules, and narrative information regarding the central
services included.
• Excel summary schedule: the results of the full cost allocation plan in Excel format
for ease of calculations, incorporation into City documents, and review by staff.
These deliverables will allow the City to have clear documentation of not only the final
Cost Plan developed, but also documentation regarding any key differences and results
from the current methodology.

3 User Fee Study Tasks
The City last conducted an external analysis of its user fees in 2006, with staff conducting
internal reviews annually to address changes in staff and operational costs. This study
aims to calculate the full (direct and indirect) cost associated with providing all citywide
fee-related services and ensure that current fees comply with state (Prop 26 & 218) and
local guidelines. The following tasks provide our workplan for conducting the study.
Task 1 Develop a Schedule of Current and Potential Fees for Service
The scope of this effort will be all user fees charged by the City of Saratoga. Current as
well as potential fees and charges will be identified and documented. The project team
will work with staff to go through their current fee schedules in line-item by line-item
detail. This meeting is critical in ensuring that staff can incorporate any updates or
changes to the fee study based upon code, regulation, staffing, process, or technological
changes. The focus of this meeting will be the following:
• Renaming fees: Rewording or renaming fees to clearly identify the service.
• Eliminating fees: Removing any outdated services or fees for services the City no
longer provides.
• Adding new fees: Capturing any new services or breaking out existing fee
categories to more clearly identify all the services being provided by city staff as
well as identifying potential fees for service that the city would like to provide.
• Recategorization of fees: Collapsing or expanding multiple fee ranges to better
capture the services being provided. For example, eliminating lot ranges or
acreages if those metrics do not impact review times; or adding categories based
upon approval body (i.e., Commission vs. Director level).
• Building permit fee basis: Discussing options for charging building fees based
upon project valuation or sq. ft. and occupancy type.
• Cross-departmental support: Identifying other divisions / departments that work
on fees, to ensure that the final fee calculated reflects the full cost to the City.
144
Proposal to Conduct Cost Allocation Plan and Cost of Service Studies Saratoga, CA
Matrix Consulting Group Page 14
• City and State surcharges: Capturing any city surcharges such as a Technology or
General Plan Maintenance Fee as well as any state surcharges on the fee schedule
to more transparently show all fees.
The result of this meeting will be a revised and proposed fee structure for review by City
departments. It is important to note that this meeting occurs first, as to ensure that any
major proposed structural changes are captured prior to collecting time estimate
information or developing draft fee results. However, there is the ability to make any
adjustments throughout the study.

Task 2 Conduct Time Data Gathering Workshops
The project team will conduct workshops to gather time estimates for each service
included in the study, interviewing key personnel from each department and analyzing the
various activities being performed. The flowchart shows an example of the steps involved
in permit processing and time associated with each step.
As the flowchart above shows, basic process steps in application/permit processing will
be documented and provided in detail for each department / division represented in the
study. Where possible, the project team will try to minimize impact on staff by
incorporating any baseline assumptions from prior city studies.
The project team will conduct multiple time estimate workshop(s) for each department
included in the study, and the results of this workshop will be excel-based workbook(s)
that staff can review. Staff will be provided time to provide any edits or comments on
time estimate information.

Task 3 Develop Fully Burdened Hourly Rates
Based on the City’s staffing and budget information, the project team will calculate fully
burdened hourly rates inclusive of direct and indirect costs. The following points highlight
the cost components and factors included in fully burdened rates:
• Direct costs: This component accounts for salary and benefits associated with
each employee or position and is reflective of staffing and salary reports provided
by the City.
• Indirect costs - departmental: This component accounts for administrative and
management support provided to line level staff, as well as operational services
and supplies which are used in the execution of job duties. This cost component
is developed through interviews with staff, as well as an analysis of services and
supply budgets.
• Indirect costs - citywide: This component accounts for citywide support such as
Finance, Human Resources, and Attorney support provided by other city
departments. This cost component is derived from the Full Cost Allocation Plan.
Once the cost components have been documented and developed, the project team will
review MOU’s, and talk with departmental staff to determine appropriate productive hour
calculations. This reduction in available hours will ensure that fully burdened hourly rates
account for leave accruals (holiday, vacation, and sick), as well as any meetings or
trainings.
The results of this analysis will be fully burdened hourly rates by position. The project
team will utilize the results of this task along with Task 2 to calculate the full cost of
services.

Task 4 Perform a Total Cost Analysis
The Matrix Consulting Group’s costing model is built based on the City’s operations,
budget detail and intended uses for the results. This method is a customized approach
specific to each jurisdiction for cost analysis of user fee services. It is a “bottom-up”
approach, which is the most defensible methodology for calculating user fees. The
146
Proposal to Conduct Cost Allocation Plan and Cost of Service Studies Saratoga, CA
Matrix Consulting Group Page 16
methodology incorporates the time estimate information (Task 2) and fully burdened
hourly rate information (Task 3). The following graphic shows the cost calculation:
This costing method uses time and annual activity level data to establish the cost of
providing services on both a unit and annual level. Once the time spent for a fee activity
is determined for each individual or position, the team uses its fee and rate software to
apply the fully burdened hourly rates calculated in the previous task.
Resulting costs are presented on a unit and annual level and are compared to the existing
fee schedule and revenue reports. The following graphic shows a sample presentation:
Per Unit
Fee Title
Current
Fee
Total Cost
Per Unit
Surplus/(Deficit) Per
Unit Cost Recovery %
Lot Line Adjustment $900 $1,557 ($657) 58%
Temporary Use
Permit $40 $325 ($285) 12%
AVERAGE COST RECOVERY PER UNIT 35%
Annual
Fee Title Workload
Revenue at
Current Fee Revenue at Full Cost
Annual Surplus/
(Deficit)
Lot Line Adjustment 4 $3600 $6,228 ($2,628)
Temporary Use
Permit 60 $2400 $19,500 ($17,100)
TOTAL $6,000 $25,728 ($19,728)
As the example in the graphic indicates, the per unit subsidy for the Lot Line Adjustment
at $657 is more than double the per unit subsidy for the Temporary Use Permit. However,
the annual results help provide Department management with some additional context,
as due to the volume of activity, the larger impact to the Department is felt by the smaller
subsidy for the Temporary Use Permit.
The City will obtain detailed information similar to that presented in the previous graphic
regarding cost recovery surpluses and deficits on both a detailed (per unit) and global
(annualized) level, as well as an understanding of cost components for each service.

Task 5 Conduct a Market Rate Survey to Similar Jurisdictions
The City has identified the cities / towns of Campbell, Cupertino, Los Altos, Los Altos Hills,
Los Gatos, and Palo Alto for use in the fee comparison survey. This comparative survey
activity will be conducted utilizing the following steps:
• Developing fee scenarios for each department included in the study to be
compared to other jurisdictions (i.e., Single Family Home 2,500 sq. ft. $325,000).
• Graphing the results of the fee analysis for easy visual comparison purposes.
• Collecting contextual information such as population size, budget, staffing, last
time fee study was done, and last fee schedule update.
As market surveys do not provide adequate or objective information about the
relationship of a jurisdiction’s costs to its fees, these steps ensure we provide the City
with the most amount of information as possible.

Task 6 Review / Revise Fee Study Results
Because the analysis of fees for service is based on estimates and information provided
by City staff, it is extremely important that all participants are comfortable with our
methodology and with the data they have provided. Once the departments agree that the
analysis reflects the reasonable costs of providing services, City management will have
an opportunity to review the results.
At this point in the process, the project team will provide Departments with
Recommended Fee Workbooks. The Recommended Fee Workbooks will provide
departments / divisions the results of the fee study in an excel based format. The
following table shows an example of the Recommended Fee Workbook:

As the table above indicates, the recommended fee workbook allows the Departments to
input information into the Recommended Fee column and then see its impacts such as
the dollar increase, percentage increase, and what percentage of their current costs they
are going to recover. Additionally, the workbook allows the Department to calculate
potential increases or declines to revenue as a result of the recommended fees.

results of each of the previous work tasks described above. This report will include:
• A succinct executive summary discussing the study, methodology, and the results.
• A narrative describing the services included in the study.
• A section on proposed modifications to the current fee schedule, including
removal or addition of new fees for service.
• A section on per unit and annual results for each fee included in the analysis and
where workload data is available.

Optional Cost Recovery Studies and Implementation Assistance
The City has outlined five additional studies it would like to conduct in furtherance of its
fiscal analysis goals. Based on the scopes of work identified in Section II - 2, as well as
our expertise and experience, we would like to propose four of the scopes: OMB Circular
A-87, Park and Recreation Dedication In-lieu Fee Nexus Study, Internal Service Fund
Allocation Models, and the Capital Asset Replacement Schedules and Funding Model.
The City has not requested detailed scopes of work for these optional services, therefore,
the following points outline the proposed timelines for completing these services, as well
as if these services can be completed within the City’s current schedule.
• OMB Compliant Cost Allocation Plan (2.1): The tasks associated with developing
an OMB Compliant Cost Allocation Plan are the same as developing a Full Cost
Allocation Plan. The main difference between the two plans is the required use of
actual expenditures, as well as the exclusion of various service costs. This study
would take approximately six (6) weeks to complete and could be conducted
concurrently with the Full Cost Plan and Cost of Services Study, with completion
in the first quarter of 2023.
• Park and Recreation Dedication In-lieu Fee Nexus Study (2.2): The data and
analysis associated with conducting a Parks and Recreation In-Lieu Nexus study
would require between six (6) and eight (8) weeks to complete. The City staff
requirements for this analysis fall heavily on those staff involved in the Cost of
Services Study, and therefore, it would be recommended to conduct this analysis
after completion of the required studies.
• Internal Service Fund Allocation Models (2.3): The tasks associated with
reviewing current practices and recommending methodology updates for current
internal service funds would be like those used to develop the Full Cost Allocation
Plan. Based on our experience with similarly sized jurisdictions, we believe that
this scope of work would take between 10 and 12 weeks to complete and should
be conducted after completion of the required studies.
• Capital Assets Replacement Schedules and Funding Model (2.5): In order to
review current practices, provide methodology recommendations, and develop a
funding model that allows for annual adjustment factors through 2027 would
require between 10 and 12 weeks to complete. We would recommend conducting
this study after completion of the required studies.
152
Proposal to Conduct Cost Allocation Plan and Cost of Service Studies Saratoga, CA
Matrix Consulting Group Page 22
Of the optional scopes of services outlined above, we believe that only the OMB
Compliant Cost Allocation Plan could be conducted concurrently with the required
studies and completed in the first quarter of 2023. The remaining scopes of work could
begin upon finalization the required scopes and conducted concurrently.
We would be happy to provide detailed tasks plans associated with any of the optional
scopes of work noted above upon request.

SARATOGA CITY COUNCIL
MEETING DATE:September 7, 2022
DEPARTMENT:Public Works
PREPARED BY:Emma Burkhalter
SUBJECT:Goleta Avenue Right of Way Easement
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Accept the Grant of Easement dated July 28, 2022 from the Cupertino Union School District
(CUSD), property owner of 12300 De Sanka Avenue (APN 386-55-001), for a right of way
easement along Goleta Avenue.
BACKGROUND:
In 2021, the City of Saratoga was asked to make repairs to a bicycle path that ran behind the sidewalk
on Blue Hills Elementary School’s Goleta Avenue frontage. City staff reached out to CUSD to
determine ownership of the bicycle path and found that, due to paperwork from the 1960s that had not
been filed, CUSD still had ownership of the land out to the centerline of Goleta Avenue. This meant
that CUSD owned the land being used for public infrastructure along the property’s Goleta Avenue
frontage, which includes the bicycle path, landscaping, sidewalk, and half-street.
In order to correct this, staff and CUSD worked together to prepare an Easement Deed granting a right
of way easement to the City of Saratoga of sufficient width to cover the half-street, sidewalk,
landscaping, and bicycle path. This will allow the City to continue performing necessary maintenance
on this infrastructure without needing to obtain written permission from the property owner. This
Easement Deed was approved by CUSD at their board meeting on July 28, 2022.
It is therefore recommended that City Council accept the Grant of Easement dated July 28, 2022
for a right of way easement along Goleta Avenue.

Charitable Foundation to accept a donation of tables.
BACKGROUND:

City of Saratoga
Donation Policy
I. Purpose
Members and supporters of the Saratoga community from time to time wish to support
the community by making donations to the City of Saratoga. The City Council
appreciates this generosity and has adopted this policy regarding donations to the City of
Saratoga, including City departments and City sponsored programs, activities, and events.
(This policy is distinct from the Employee Gifts Policy, which provides City of Saratoga
employees with a clear standard about when it is acceptable and prohibited to accept gifts
from a member of the public, a business, an organization, or other entity.)
II. Definitions
1. Donation: a contribution made to the City without expectation of goods, services, or
significant benefit or recognition in return. Donations may be in the form of money or
in-kind contributions of products, services, investment securities, real property (land),
or any combination thereof. A donation may be unrestricted, where the donor has
placed no limitation on its use, or restricted, where the donor has restricted its use to a
specified purpose. Donations that, if accepted, would obligate the City to enter into a
service, procurement, or other agreement shall not be considered a donation. Grants
to the City from a local, state, or federal agency are not subject to this policy.
2. Donor: Any organization or individual who provides the City with a donation.
3. Donation Agreement: An agreement between the City and the donor that details any
restrictions on a donation as well as the respective obligations of the donor and the
City.
4. Fundraising: Any activity conducted with the intent of generating donations to the
City. Fundraising activities may include, but are not limited to, promoting endowment
programs, program adoption or pledge drives, and contacting individuals, companies,
foundations, or other entities with a request for a donation to the City.
III. General Provisions
1. The City welcomes unrestricted donations as well as restricted donations that enhance
City services, reduce costs that the City would incur in the absence of the donation, or
that otherwise provide a benefit to the City. The City may decline any donation
without comment or cause.
174
Adopted Via City Council Resolution 15-017 (April 1, 2015)
Page 2 of 8
2. Donors shall not expect, nor shall the City grant, any extra consideration to the donor
in relation to City procurement, regulatory matters, or any other business, services, or
operations of the City. To avoid the possible appearance of extra considerations,
members of the Planning and Heritage Preservation Commissions and staff of the
Community Development Department are not authorized to solicit donations to the
City.
3. No City Council member, Commissioner, employee, or volunteer shall solicit
donations in excess of $500 in money or in-kind services for any City project,
program, activity, or event (“supported activity”) unless the City Council has
approved a fundraising plan for the supported activity. A recommended form for a
fundraising plan is attached as Exhibit A to be revised as appropriate for the
fundraising goal and type of supported activity in question.
4. Donations must be directly related to providing goods or services to the public or for
another valid public purpose. Donations may not be used for personal financial gain
of any City elected or appointed official or employee.
5. The net benefit of a donation should be considered when determining whether to
accept a donation. Net benefit includes all lifecycle costs of ownership, including
maintenance, repair, clean-up, administrative, and any potential liability or expenses
that may be associated with the donation.
a. Donations may not be used to implement new on-going programs or services
unless a permanent source of revenue is identified to support the program or
service.
b. Potential costs and liabilities should be considered if a donation of personal
property or of a service does not include the same indemnification, insurance,
bonding, or warranties that the City would normally receive through procurement
of personal property or services.
c. Real property may be donated to the City provided that it will not expose the City
to an unreasonable risk of litigation or liability, because of the physical condition
of the property or existence of claims, liens, and encumbrances against the
property.
6. Council members and other City officials are responsible for reporting fundraising
activities and donations as required by applicable laws and regulations.
IV. Procedures
1. Unrestricted donations of $5,000 or less may be accepted or declined by the City
Manager. Restricted donations of $500 or less may be accepted or declined by the
175

initiated request for donors, limited forms of promotional activity (such as logo or
name placement on signs, flyers, and other materials related to a program or activity
supported by the donation) are permitted. The appearance of traditional commercial
advertising should be avoided and the size of donor recognition should be in keeping
with the size of non-recognition information used in the materials. The agreed upon
form of recognition should be identified in the donor receipt or a donation agreement.
Any naming of City parks, property, or facilities shall follow the guidelines set forth
in the City’s Policy Pertaining to Naming City-Owned Land and Facilities.

the donor, the City will issue the donor a receipt indicating the amount of the
donation or describing the goods or services donated within 30 days of receiving the
donation. (In accordance with the Internal Revenue Code the City does not provide
an estimated value of in-kind donations; donors may refer to IRS Publication 561 for
more information on valuing donated property.) The donation receipt shall also
include the date of the donation, the name of the donor, the purpose of the donation
(if a restricted donation), a brief description of any public recognition that will be
made by the City, and note that the donor received no goods or services in exchange.
The original receipt shall be submitted to the donor and the City shall retain a copy.

MEETING DATE:September 7, 2022
DEPARTMENT:Community Development Department
PREPARED BY:Nicole Johnson, Senior Planner
SUBJECT:Landmark Designation & Mills Act Agreement for 14666 Oak Street
Application No. MIL22-0001 & LNDMRK22-0001
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
The Heritage Preservation Commission (HPC) recommends that the City Council:
1. Accept public comment on the proposal to designate the subject property as a historic
landmark and enter into a Mills Act Agreement.
2. Adopt the attached ordinance designating the property as a historic landmark as
introduced on July 6, 2022.
3. Adopt the attached Resolution authorizing the City Manager to enter into a Mills Act
Agreement for the property located at 14666 Oak Street upon the effective date of the
landmark ordinance.
BACKGROUND:
At the July 6, 2022 meeting the City Council conducted a public hearing on the proposal to
designate the property as a historic landmark and enter into a Mills Act agreement. The Council
introduced and waived the first reading of the ordinance designating the property as a historic
landmark and directed staff to place the ordinance on the consent calendar for adoption at the
July 20th Council meeting.
After the July 6th meeting several public comments were received about the current status of the
property (attachment B).
At the July 20
th meeting, the Council voted to bring the item back to the Council for further
consideration. The Council directed staff to review the improvement plan and ensure that the
property owners have been given the Department of the Interior National Preservation Park
preservation briefs. The applicant has been provided with the preservation briefs and has revised
their proposed 10-year restoration plan in the Mills Act agreement including updating the
landscaping in the first year. Since the July 20
th meeting, the owner has painted the exterior of
the house a grey color with white trim. The fence along the front of the property has also been
painted white. The restoration plan in Attachment E has been updated to reflect these changes.
The attached resolution would amend the July 6, 2022 Resolution to authorize the City Manager
to sign the Mills Act agreement with the new restoration plan instead of the agreement presented
182
on July 6. The attached ordinance for adoption is identical to the ordinance introduced on July 6,
2022.

MEETING DATE: July 6, 2022
DEPARTMENT: Community Development Department
PREPARED BY: Nicole Johnson, Senior Planner
SUBJECT: Landmark Designation & Mills Act Agreement for 14666 Oak Street
Application No. MIL22-0001 & LNDMRK22-0001
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
The Heritage Preservation Commission (HPC) recommends that the City Council:
1.Conduct a public hearing on the proposal to designate the subject property as a historic
landmark and enter into a Mills Act Agreement.
2. Introduce and waive first reading of the attached ordinance designating the property as a
historic landmark.
3.Direct staff to place the ordinance on the Consent Calendar for adoption at the next
regular meeting of the City Council.
4. Adopt the attached Resolution authorizing the City Manager to enter into a Mills Act
Agreement for the property located at 14666 Oak Street upon the effective date of the
landmark ordinance.
BACKGROUND:
In March 2003 the City Council approved Resolution 03-016 establishing the City’s participation
in the Mills Act Program. The Mills Act is state legislation granting local governments the
authority to enter into agreements with owners of qualified historical properties to provide for the
use, maintenance, and restoration of the properties to retain characteristics of their historical
significance. In exchange for these restrictions the owners receive a reduced assessed valuation
of their property thereby lowering their property taxes. It is Council policy that no more than
three applications for the Mills Act be approved per year. The subject application is the first
request for a Mills Act in 2022. The City has entered into a total of fifteen (15) Mills Act
contracts since the program was created.
The subject property is listed on the Heritage Resource Inventory (HP-88-01) as the
“Congregational Church Parsonage”. On March 10, 2022 the owner of the property submitted a
request (1) to designate the house at 14666 Oak Street as a Historic Landmark and (2) to enter
into a Mills Act Agreement with the City.
184
The property was placed on the Heritage Resource Inventory in 1988. The property qualifies for
historical landmark designation under criteria a and b because the property exemplifies and
reflects special elements of the cultural, social, economic, aesthetic, and architectural history of
Saratoga; and the property is identified with persons significant in local history.
Pursuant to City Code Section 13-15.010, the Heritage Preservation Commission may
recommend to the City Council designation of a proposal as a historic landmark, if it satisfies
any two or more of the criteria listed below and also retains a substantial degree of architectural
and structural integrity with respect to the original design, as determined by the Heritage
Commission.
a) It exemplifies or reflects special elements of the cultural, social, economic, political,
aesthetic, engineering or architectural history of the City, the County, the State or the
nation; or
b) It is identified with persons or events significant in local, county, state or national history;
or
c) It embodies distinctive characteristics of a style, type, period or method of construction,
or is a valuable example of the use of indigenous materials; or
d) It is representative of the notable design or craft of a builder, designer, or architect; or
e) It embodies or contributes to unique physical characteristics representing an established
and familiar visual feature of a neighborhood or district within the City; or
f) It represents a significant concentration or continuity of site, buildings, structures or
objects, unified by past events or aesthetically by plan or physical or natural
development; or
g) It embodies or contributes to a unique natural setting or environment constituting a
distinct area or district within the City having special character or special historical,
architectural or aesthetic interest or value.
The property known as Congregational Church Parsonage was added to the Heritage Resource
Inventory in 1988 (HP-88-01). This residence was built on Oak Street around 1886 for the use of
the pastor of the Congregational Church. The church was the first permanent religious
organization in Saratoga, with a charter membership of nine women and one man.
This National/Greek Revival style home is a symmetrical one-and-one-half-story house and has
distinctive balloon-framed proportions, primarily visible in the raised eaves of the cross gabled
roof, the narrow roof span and relatively steep roof pitch, as well as the raised floor. The house is
side-gabled with an accent gable centered in the front elevation. Individually placed double-hung
windows flank the centered front door. The fullwidth front porch may be an original design, with
simple wood posts and low banister. The house may have been relocated to this property, as the
first floor height would commonly have been raised on a pony wall. The window sash has been
replaced.
The house retains adequate character-defining architectural design, workmanship and materials,
as well as a historic location and setting, and the property continues to represent the historical
associations and feelings of this residence.
At their April 26, 2022 meeting, the HPC recommended that the City Council designate the
subject property as a Historic Landmark and recommended the property for Mills Act
consideration to City Council. A property must be designated a City of Saratoga Historic
185
Landmark pursuant to City Code Section 13-15.060 (Historic Landmark) to be eligible for the
Mills Act Program.
FISCAL STATEMENT:
With an approval of the Mills Act Agreement the City would lose a portion of the property tax
collected from the property. The City receives annually approximately $1,416 for a property
assessed at $1,522,106. The Mills Act would reduce that amount of revenue by approximately
60% to $566.
ADVERTISING, NOTICING AND PUBLIC CONTACT:
A public notice was sent to property owners within 500 feet of the site. In addition, the public
hearing notice and description of the project was published in the Saratoga News.
ENVIRONMENTAL DETERMINATION:
The proposed ordinance is exempt from California Environmental Quality Act (CEQA) pursuant
to CEQA Guidelines section 15061(b)(3). CEQA applies only to projects which have the
potential of causing a significant effect on the environment. Where it can be seen with certainty
that there is no possibility that the activity in question may have a significant effect on the
environment, the activity is not subject to CEQA. In this circumstance, the ordinance designating

Subject Consent Calendar Item#1.3 for Council Meeting of July 20, 2022
Comments Honorable Mayor and Councilmembers:
RE: Consent Item 1.3, Landmark Designation for 14666 Oak St.
Please go ahead and APPROVE this application. How they
choose to landscape their front yard is irrelevant. Personally, I
like the splash of color on an otherwise drab Oak Street, and
their use of tires for raised beds is an imaginative way of
204
recycling of old tires.
Please don't go the way of Hillsborough and start regulating front
yard design (I' m referring to the famous "Flintstone House"
visible from HWY 280).
BOTTOM LINE: They've done a great job of preserving the
house, and deserve the City's approval.

Subject Historic Landmark and Mills Act Contract/ 14666 Oak
Street/application no. LNDMRK22-0001 and MIL22-0001
Comments We have no objection to this request, as long as the restoration
and continued maintenance requirements are followed. Since
this house was purchased by the current owners, it has been an
eyesore for the area; a front yard with car tires painted white,
fencing and porch painting in neon pink and neon yellow. It is an
embarrassment as a historic landmark. For the last several years
I have seen the walking tours stop to hear about the house, and
look surprised.
If you go on Zillow and look up the address, you will see what the
property looked like when it was purchased by the current
owners. It was beautiful back then. We ask that you follow the
historic landmark guidelines, and enforce them, if you grant this
request. The front yard should be brought back, the neon paint
should be removed and complete repainting done. The front door
should also be repainted, and all junk should be removed from
the front yard and porch. Trash cans should be placed behind the
fence. Continued monitoring should be put in place as well.

Subject 14666 Oak Street / Historic Landmark and Mills Act Contract
Comments Since this house was purchased in 2017, it's been a blight on the
neighborhood. It was a beautiful, historic house previously. My
husband, daughter and I walk by the house every day. We live
off of St. Charles Street. When the current owners began
painting everything yellow, pink and white and loaded the front
yard with tires (many painted white to house a home garden), I
took the time to go speak to someone at the City offices. We felt
the house was bringing down property values and certainly
wasn't maintaining it's 'historical' heritage. I do not remember
who came out from the back to speak to me about my concerns
but I left there disappointed and surprised that this person didn't
seem to care. She asked me 'did you try knocking on the front
door and speaking to your new neighbor'? I felt then and still do
that this was a terrible attitude to take with a concerned Saratoga
resident. Since they have moved in, they erected a picket fence,
painted the house and fence crazy colors. built a home garden in
old tires and raised beds for the entire front yard area, erected
old discolored 'bunting' off the front porch and loaded the bunch
with junk. A new Tesla solar roof was installed on the house.
Without knowing what the historical guidelines are, I'm not sure
this should have been allowed. Also, for the past many months
they have put up an 2nd very large structure in the back yard. I
assume they have proper permitting for this, but the new
structure doesn't look anything like the original historical house.
The front door is very modern and bright red. Since the owners
are looking for a tax break with a renewed historical certification,
we have noticed a flurry of work being done to tone down the
crazy colors and some (not all) of the junk has been removed. I
would ask the City to make sure the owners come into
compliance with the limitations of having the house on the
historic registry. If you do wish to grant this tax savings to the
207
current owner and they begin junking it up again, the City should
make yearly visits to make sure the house is compliant and
continues to be that way.

SARATOGA CITY COUNCIL
MEETING DATE:September 07,2022
DEPARTMENT:Public Works
PREPARED BY:Mainini Cabute, Environmental Programs Manager
SUBJECT:Approve Safe Routes to School Master Plan
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Approve the Safe Routes to School Master Plan dated July 14, 2022 and direct staff to move
forward with implementation of improvement projects identified in the plan.
BACKGROUND:
Over the past two decades the City’s Traffic Safety Commission (TSC) and City staff has
reviewed many traffic safety concerns around schools. In 2013, the City’s public works
department and the TSC proactively reached out to the various school communities and offered
City resources to evaluate and make recommendations to address school traffic safety and
circulation. For several years since, the City collaborated with the TSC, the Youth Commission,
school communities, traffic deputies, and school neighbors to discuss traffic safety needs and
improvements. During the past years, projects were completed in increments based on priority
and funding availability.
In 2018, the City of Saratoga officially joined the County’s Safe Routes to School Initiative by
City resolution. By doing so, the City became eligible for potential funding resources from state
and regional agencies. In 2019, City staff requested funding from the City Council to develop a
Safe Routes to School Master Plan (SRTS Master Plan) with the goal of incorporating all of the
school traffic safety projects into one master document. In September 2020, the City entered into
a contract with the City’s traffic consultants, Fehr and Peers,to assist in developing the SRTS
Master Plan.
In December 2020, City staff and Fehr and Peers held a meeting to begin the development process
of the SRTS Master Plan. The development of the SRTS Master Plan was a collaborative process
led by the City of Saratoga. City staff re-assembled its group of safe routes to school stakeholders
and formed the Safe Routes to School Technical Advisory Committee (SRTS TAC).
The SRTS TAC pursued the following two goals during the development of the SRTS Master
Plan:
226
1) Identify all potential walking and bicycling routes to schools in Saratoga and list
improvements that should be made at those routes to accommodate walking and bicycling
to school and develop recommended route maps for each school.
2) Conduct extensive outreach with the school communities and neighborhoods to ensure that
the City has identified the appropriate routes for students to use and the appropriate traffic
safety calming solutions at those locations.
Potential Walking and Bicycling Routes
The City of Saratoga SRTS Master Plan represents the City’s continuing efforts to proactively
improve active transportation in Saratoga by creating safer, more comfortable, more efficient, and
more accessible travel routes that encourage students to walk and bicycle to school.
To accomplish this goal, the City’s SRTS TAC participated in walk audits and site evaluations to
identify areas around schools needing traffic safety improvements. Roadway systems, collision
history and pedestrian and bicycle facilities were all reviewed as part of the evaluation. City staff
worked closely with school principals, current students through the Youth Commission, and
parents of students to find out routes that they believe students are using to walk and bike to school.
The intent of this process was to identify locations that need improvements within a ¼- ½ mile
radius around the schools and also to identify the safest routes to school within the same distance.
The following 11 schools in Saratoga were assessed for potential traffic calming projects and
future improvements:
1. Argonaut Elementary School
2. Blue Hills Elementary School
3. Christa McAuliffe Elementary School
4. Marshall Lane
5. Foothill Elementary School
6. Prospect High School
7. Redwood Middle School
8. Saratoga Elementary School
9. Saratoga High School
10. Sacred Heart School (Private)
11. St. Andrew’s Episcopal School (Private)
After the walk audits, the SRTS TAC met remotely two times in the summer of 2021, to discuss
the appropriate type of traffic calming solutions to recommend for the various intersections
identified for improvements.
The membership of the SRTS TAC was uniquely comprised of community members who were
both current Saratoga Traffic Safety Commissioners (TSC) and former TSC members. As a result,
the members had extensive knowledge of the traffic safety challenges in Saratoga and around
Saratoga schools through their work as traffic safety commissioners. Additionally, the TAC had
two members who were former students from the 1980s-90s and current students of Saratoga
schools. The SRTS TAC was able to discuss more comprehensively the walking and bicycling
challenges over the past few decades.
227
The SRTS Master Plan contains traffic calming solutions that can be completed in the near term,
such as striping, installment of high-visibility crosswalks, rectangular rapid flashing beacons
(RRFB), signage, berms, curb ramps and extensions, and radar feedback signs. Below are the seven
intersections in Saratoga that have near-term traffic calming solution recommendations. The
details of these recommendations are contained in the Master Plan.

The SRTS Master Plan also contains recommendations that will require more funding, such as
sidewalks, or traffic signal improvements throughout the various school locations. The list of
recommended improvements were disseminated to the school and neighborhood communities
through an extensive outreach effort and gave community members an opportunity to comment.
Extensive Outreach with School Communities and Neighborhoods
The SRTS TAC prioritized school and community outreach in the development of the SRTS
Master Plan with the goal of achieving a win-win outcome. Fortunately, the SRTS TAC’s
extensive outreach effort was supported by the Valley Transportation Authority (VTA) 2016
Measure B Bicycle and Pedestrian Education and Encouragement Program which reimbursed the
City for the costs related to outreach activities.
The City developed an outreach plan that included outreach meetings through its TSC and also
dissemination of information through the City’s website and a variety of newsletters and social
media posts. City staff held its first outreach meeting on September 9, 2021 through the TSC. At
that meeting, City staff informed the Saratoga community about the online community survey
effort and the project timelines for community input. The SRTS Master Plan was also reviewed
and discussed at the TSC meetings on March 10, 2022 and July 14, 2022.
The City’s online survey was open from of October 2021 until April 2022. During that time, the
City received nearly 100 written comments. These comments have been summarized and included
in the appendices of the SRTS Master Plan.
228
The SRTS TAC also reached out to all 11 schools and offered to give a presentation about the
City’s efforts and progress on the SRTS Master Plan at a future Parent Teacher Association (PTA)
meeting. Only Saratoga High School PTA invited the SRTS TACto present at its February 3, 2022
meeting. The PTA members expressed appreciation for the efforts being done to improve traffic
safety around Saratoga.
The City customized the presentation for each school and distributed each presentation to the
appropriate school. School community members were asked to provide feedback by contacting
City staff or commenting on the online form. Below are the 10 of 11 schools that had comments,
listed from highest to lowest number of comments:
1) Redwood Middle (22 comments)
2) Saratoga Elementary (12 comments)
3) Blue Hills Elementary (11 comments)
4) Foothill Elementary (9 comments)
5) Marshall Lane Elementary (7 comments)
6) Argonaut Elementary (7 comments)
7) Saratoga High (6 comments)
8) Prospect High (5 comments)
9) Christa McAuliffe (3 comments)
10)Saint Andrews (1 comment)
On March 1, 2022, the Mercury News published a story titled “Saratoga to Create a Plan to Make
Walking, Biking to School Safer” which provided information about Saratoga’s SRTS Master
Plan.
Overall, the SRTS Master Plan process spanned over 16 months beginning with the walk audits
in May 2021. The City reached out to community members and the school communities to
inform them about the SRTS Master Plan development and the recommendations contained in
the draft SRTS Master Plan.
Once the SRTS Master Plan is approved, City staff plans to move forward with the construction
of the near-term safety improvements using the currently allocated Capital Improvement Program
funds of $160,000. Once the near-term safety improvements are complete, staff will develop safe
routes to school route maps for each school for students to use. Once the route maps have been
distributed, the City will begin promoting annual events, such as walk or bike to school events.
Staff will continue to apply for grants to help fund the future improvements that require additional
funding.
Staff recommends that the City Council approve the Safe Routes to School Master Plan.

Introduction
Plan Overview
The City of Saratoga Safe Routes to School Master Plan (Plan) represents the city’s continuing efforts to
proactively improve active transportation in Saratoga by creating safer, more comfortable, more efficient,
and more accessible travel routes that encourage students to walk and bicycle to school.
Through the City’s Traffic Safety Commission, Saratoga residents have had an opportunity to share their
school traffic safety concerns and request for review and evaluation of the various locations around
Saratoga. Over the past two decades, the City has reviewed many traffic safety concerns around the
schools. In 2013, the City’s public works department and its Traffic Safety Commission proactively reached
out to the various school communities and offered City resources to evaluate and make recommendations
related to address school traffic safety and circulation. For several years, the City collaborated with the
Traffic Safety Commission, school communities, traffic deputies, and school neighbors to discuss traffic
safety needs and improvements. During the past years, projects were completed in increments based on
priority and funding availability.
In 2018, the City officially joined the County’s Safe Routes to School Initiative by City resolution. By doing
so, the City became eligible for potential funding resources from state and regional agencies. In 2019, City
staff requested funding from the City Council to develop a Safe Routes to School Master Plan. The goal of
the plan has been to identify all of the potential walking and bicycling routes to schools in Saratoga and
list all of the improvements that should be made at those routes to accommodate walking and bicycling
to school. The City plans to develop safe routes to school route maps for students to use once the safety
improvements have been implemented. Once the route maps have been distributed, the City will promote
annual events, such as walk or bike to school events.
The City retained Fehr and Peers to develop the Safe Routes to School Master Plan and to use current and
comprehensive approach at evaluating traffic safety around schools. The development of the Safe Routes
to School Master Plan was a collaborative process led by the City of Saratoga and Fehr and Peers with
representatives from the Saratoga community , school principals, members of the Saratoga Traffic Safety
Commission (TSC), and the Santa Clara County Sheriff’s Office. The Plan outlines future citywide programs,
prioritization criteria, and priority project recommendations.
The Safe System Approach
The Safe Routes to School Master Plan is guided by the Safe System Approach 1, which has a goal of
eliminating fatal and serious injuries for all road users. The Safe System Approach is designed to
anticipate human driving behaviors that sometimes result in traffic collisions that lead to serious injuries
1 https://safety.fhwa.dot.gov/zerodeaths/docs/FHWA_SafeSystem_Brochure_V9_508_200717.pdf
236
2
or deaths. Recent data shows that there are daily incidents of collisions in California and across the Unites
States, with trends worsening for vulnerable road users (pedestrians and bicyclists). The Safe System
Approach is a proactive approach that relies on all roadway system stakeholders—from system operators
to vehicle manufacturers to law enforcement and everyday users. The pivot to the Safe System Approach
requires a shift in project prioritization, funding, and commitments. As noted in the graphic below, that
can involve a more proactive focus with more holistic and redundant interventions.
Image Source: FHWA
The Safe System Approach acknowledges the vulnerability of the human body when designing and
operating a transportation network and the impact that a crash or collision can have on a human body.
The overall goal is to design a transportation network that does not result in serious human injury during
a crash.
A Safe System approach addresses the five elements of a safe transportation system—safe road users,
safe vehicles, safe speeds, safe roads, and post-crash care—in an integrated manner and through a wide
range of interventions (see Figure 1).
237

Figure 1: The Safe System Approach
The Institute of Transportation Engineers (ITE) and the Road to Zero Coalition’s Safe System Explanation
and Framework articulate that to anticipate human mistakes, a Safe System seeks to accomplish
the following:
• Separate users in a physical space (e.g., sidewalks, dedicated bicycle facilities)
• Separate users in time (e.g., pedestrian scramble, dedicated turn phases)
• Alert users to potential hazards
• Accommodate human injury tolerance through interventions that reduce speed or
impact force
The recommendations in this report focus on key opportunity areas around each school to engage the
Safe System stakeholders and proactively provide self-enforcing facilities.
Guiding Principles
As the City of Saratoga strives to proactively improve multimodal safety, key elements of the Safe System
approach influence the guiding principles for this document:

1. Safety is the highest priority. Motor vehicle collisions should not result in a serious injury or
fatality on City of Saratoga roadways.
2. People make mistakes. Errant behavior will be taken into consideration for design, construction,
and operation, and roads will be continuously evaluated to determine the impact of such
behavior.
3. Safety is a shared responsibility. The goal is to create a roadway system where users, roadway
designers, law enforcement, and post-crash care cohesively reinforce safety.
4. Implementation requires a data-driven approach. Ongoing analysis should continue to identify
where and why traffic collisions are occurring, and prioritize projects and programs that eliminate
severe and fatal collisions. Proactive and reactive data-driven decisions have been and will be
made to design and manage roadways to reduce the severity of collisions.
5. Transportation networks must be equitable. The transportation network in the City of Saratoga
must be equitable to all road users and serve all ages and abilities.
6. The Safe Routes to School Plan will be accountable and transparent. Evaluation through an
equity lens will be ongoing. The City of Saratoga strives to be transparent in its communications
on roadway designs, prioritizing competing improvements, and use of resources needed to
reduce severe and fatal collisions on city roadways.

Plan Development
The development of City of Saratoga’s SRTS Plan included five major project milestones, which are
summarized below and described in greater detail in this document.
Relationship to Other City Plans and Efforts
City Plans
The City of Saratoga continues to work toward improving walking and bicycling in the community
through related plans and efforts.
• The City of Saratoga General Plan outlines the city’s vision for the year 2040 and aims to
provide a safe and sustainable living environment, enhance traffic mobility, and encourage
economic growth through land use developments while preserving the existing residential
neighborhoods and open space areas.
• The 2040 General Plan Update Working Draft of Circulation and Scenic Highway Element
provides guidance for improving the safety and mobility of the current transportation network
240
6
and addresses potential growth in travel demand and changes in transportation technologies. The
major circulation concerns discussed include traffic volume and travel speed in residential areas,
safe access to schools and parks, parking for private employee shuttles, traffic circulation during
special events, and implementation of Transportation Demand Management (TDM) programs.
• The 2040 General Plan Update Working Draft of Land Use Element provides insights on the
existing land use conditions in the City of Saratoga, lists the city’s guiding principles for land use
planning, and describes the land use density and intensity of each subcategory within the four
land use categories: residential, commercial, public facilities, and open space.
• The City of Saratoga 2020 Speed Survey found an increase in the 85th percentile speeds in 65
percent of the roadway segments compared to 2013. The survey found that posted speed limit
could be increased for eight of the roadway segments, but adjustment of the posted speed limit
was not recommended after considering pavement width, residential density, collisions, and other
pedestrian and bicycle safety issues.
• The Citywide Transportation Needs Assessment found that the primary transportation needs
include improving pedestrian access facilities and sidewalk connectivity, increasing access to
transit service, and filling in service gaps between residential and commercial areas, and providing
sufficient parking spaces for private vehicles and employee shuttles.
• The City of Saratoga Local Roadway Safety Plan (LRSP) will create a roadmap for improving
safety for all modes of transportation. The city has recently started the process of creating the
LRSP. The LRSP will identify roadways with a history of collisions and other areas with collision
risks, and will make recommendations for future improvements. The LRSP will expand and build
upon the work of the Safe Routes to School Plan with a citywide focus.

Existing Conditions
The following section provides an overview of the existing conditions in the City of Saratoga today, with a
specific focus on schools, existing roadway facilities, pedestrian and bikeway facilities, and collision data
from 2015 – 2019.
Schools
Saratoga residents are served by seven public school districts plus private schools. These include four
elementary school districts (Cupertino Union, Moreland, Campbell Union Elementary, and Saratoga
Union), and three high school districts (Fremont Union, Campbell Union High School, and Los Gatos-
Saratoga Union). Only one school district, Saratoga Union School District, is located entirely
within Saratoga.
The elementary schools located in Saratoga are Argonaut Elementary, Foothill Elementary, Redwood
Middle, and Saratoga Elementary in the Saratoga Union School District. Marshall Lane Elementary is in the
Campbell Union Elementary District, and Blue Hills Elementary and Christa McAuliffe Elementary are in the
Cupertino Union School District. The high schools located in Saratoga are Prospect High School in the
Campbell Union High School District, and Saratoga High School in the Los Gatos-Saratoga Joint Union
High School District. Private schools in Saratoga include Saint Andrew's School, Sacred Heart School,
Action Day Primary Plus, and Challenger School. Saratoga is also served by the Foothill-De Anza and West
Valley-Mission community college districts.
For the Saratoga Safe Routes to School Plan, 11 schools in the Saratoga Union School District were
assessed to identify potential projects and future improvements as shown in Figure 2. The Plan focuses
improvements on a ¼ mile radius (5-minute walk) from schools. The City will also assess the traffic safety
and circulation around Action Day Primary Plus and Challenger School in the near future and will include
findings and recommended improvements as an appendix to this document.
These schools include:
1. Argonaut Elementary School
2. Blue Hills Elementary School
3. Christa McAuliffe
4. Foothill Elementary School
5. Marshall Lane Elementary School
6. Prospect High School
7. Redwood Middle School
8. Saratoga Elementary School
9. Saratoga High School
242
8
In addition, the SRTS Plan considered the following private schools located within the City of Saratoga:
1.Sacred Heart School
2.St. Andrew’s Episcopal School
Historically, Saratoga has discouraged construction of sidewalks on many local residential streets to
reduce the amount of impervious surface and to maintain a high level of visual quality with the provision
for more landscaping. The City’s General Plan states goals around the importance of retaining the rural
qualities and character of the community while providing adequate capacity and safety for vehicles and
other modes of travel. Given the relatively low traffic volumes on most streets, the combination of
pedestrian and vehicle traffic in the roadway does not typically result in problems. However, many parents
of elementary school-age children do not permit their children to walk to school because of potential
vehicle-pedestrian conflicts. Saratoga Unified School District is an open enrollment district, which allows
students to choose which school in the district they would like to attend instead of it being limited by
their property address.
For these and other reasons, many students are driven to and from school (or drive themselves if 16 or
older), and the result is increased congestion and delay. School congestion is typically concentrated for
the 15 to 30 minutes before school starts and after school ends. The congestion can be excessive, with
long queues on streets immediately surrounding schools. These factors contribute to increased potential
for vehicle-pedestrian conflict with the increased exposure, especially in the immediate vicinity of the
school. Although the school districts have been actively participating in efforts to increase ridesharing to
reduce overall traffic volumes at elementary schools, additional measures will be necessary to decrease the
number of students driven to school. To reduce vehicle congestion on the streets around schools and to
improve traffic safety, the City intends to implement the traffic safety recommendations contained in this
Safe Routes to School Master Plan. The City will develop route maps and distribute it to the school
communities to encourage students to walk or bike to school.

Roadway System
The city has adopted a roadway system that incorporates the concepts of complete streets and recognizes
the different functionality of roadways based on the type of access provided, vehicle volumes, and the mix
of vehicle, transit, bicycle, and pedestrian travel. Roadways have been classified into seven categories:
• Freeways: Freeways are limited-access, high-speed travel ways included in the state and federal
highway systems. Freeways are facilities designed solely for traffic movement, providing no access
to abutting properties, and designed to separate all conflicting traffic movements through the use
of grade-separated interchanges. Bicycles and pedestrians are prohibited. The only freeway in
Saratoga is state route (SR) 85.
• Expressways: Expressways are high-speed, limited-access streets designed to facilitate the
movement of high traffic volumes. Expressways are designed to serve both regional through and
local traffic, and ideally connect other regional roadways and freeways. In Santa Clara County,
expressways are maintained and operated by the Santa Clara County Roads and Airports
Department. While the city coordinates with the County regarding expressway operations and
improvements, the County controls access to and operation of traffic signals on each of these
facilities. Expressways prioritize vehicles, yet bicycles are permitted. Transit riders are served on
expressways. The only expressway facility within Saratoga limits is a very short segment of
Lawrence Expressway north of Saratoga Avenue.
• Boulevards: Boulevards are designed as complete streets to accommodate all travel modes
equally. Boulevards are generally designed with two to four travel lanes, and major intersections
are signalized. They provide access to retail and adjacent neighborhoods, while carrying local
traffic to and from freeways, expressways, and major streets. Boulevards are also key transit
corridors for VTA bus service and accommodate bicycle and pedestrian traffic. Boulevards provide
continuous bicycle facilities and emphasize the pedestrian environment with continuous, well-
delineated sidewalks, and street trees. Boulevards include Allendale Avenue, Fruitvale Avenue
(north of Burgundy Way), Prospect Road, Saratoga-Sunnyvale Road, Saratoga Avenue (east of
Fruitvale Avenue), and Quito Road (north of Pollard Road).
• Connectors: Connectors are streets that provide land access and traffic circulation within
residential and commercial areas. They connect local streets to boulevards and are multi-purpose
roads with moderate to high volumes of vehicular traffic designed to move vehicles while
providing good access for people biking and walking. They typically include two travel lanes and
may accommodate bike lanes and on-street parking. Transit use, if any, is incidental and
pedestrians should be provided with continuous sidewalks where feasible. Examples of connector
streets include Cox Avenue, Fruitvale Avenue (south of Burgundy Way), Herriman Avenue, Miller
Avenue, Pierce Road, Quito Road (south of Pollard Road), and Saratoga Avenue (west of
Fruitvale Avenue).
• Residential Collectors: Residential Collectors are streets that provide land access and traffic
circulation within mainly residential areas. They join connector streets to local streets and are
typically designed with two travel lanes that may accommodate on-street parking. Residential
collectors have moderate to low volumes of vehicular traffic and should accommodate bicycles
245
11
and pedestrians within the right-of-way, though often pedestrians and bicyclists share the right-
of-way with vehicles. Transit use, if any, is incidental and pedestrians should be provided with
continuous sidewalks, where feasible. Residential collectors can have physical traffic calming
measures to help manage vehicle volumes and speeds. Examples of residential collector streets
include Beaumont Avenue, Brookglen Drive, Chester Avenue, Cumberland Drive, Glen Brea Drive,
Monte Vista Drive, Paseo Presada, Reid Lane, Scully Avenue, Seagull Way, and Sobey Road.
• Neighborhood Streets: Neighborhood or residential streets provide direct access to abutting
residential properties as their primary function along with recreations opportunities through play,
walking, and biking. Local streets have no more than two travel lanes and may or may not
accommodate on-street parking. Local streets should accommodate automobiles, bicyclists, and
pedestrians equally in the right-of-way. In many areas of Saratoga, local streets do not
include sidewalks.
• Hillside Streets: These roads are local streets located in the foothills that have narrow travel lane
widths and slower travel speeds. Typically, no on-street parking is permitted and no right-of-way
is available for separate pedestrian or bicycle facilities. Examples include Bohlman Road and
portions of Canyon View Drive.
• Heritage Lanes: Two roadways in Saratoga are designated as “heritage lanes.” While not an
official roadway type for circulation purposes, this designation indicates corridors that are
maintained to preserve Saratoga’s character. The two roadways with this designation are Saratoga
Avenue between Fruitvale Avenue and Park Place, and Austin Way south of Saratoga-Los Gatos
Road (SR 9).
Regional roadway access to Saratoga is provided by three major freeways: State Route (SR) 85,
Interstate 280 (I-280), and SR 17. Only SR 85 provides direct access to Saratoga via interchanges at
Saratoga Avenue and South De Anza Boulevard (in Cupertino). Access to SR 17 is provided by Saratoga-
Los Gatos Road, which is designated as SR 9, and via SR 85. SR 85 and SR 17 both provide access to I-280.
Lawrence Expressway also serves regional traffic and links Saratoga to the cities of Santa Clara
and Sunnyvale.
Local roadway access within the city is provided by a network of streets specifically designed to
discourage cut-through traffic in neighborhood areas. Increased congestion on some of the major
roadways, especially near the SR 85/Saratoga Avenue interchange, has led to traffic diversion through
some neighborhoods.
Pedestrian Facilities
Pedestrian facilities improve safety for pedestrians and can also encourage the use of alternative modes of
transportation. Pedestrian facilities include sidewalks, curb ramps, crosswalks, and off-street paths meant
to provide safe and convenient routes for pedestrians to access destinations such as institutions,
businesses, public transportation, and recreational facilities. The Open Space and Conservation Element
identifies existing and proposed trail easements throughout Saratoga. The existing and proposed trails,
sidewalks, and other pedestrian facilities are shown on Figure 3.
246
12
Saratoga has several pedestrian paths that use easements or connections through parks to reduce the
length of walking trips. These paths include but are not limited to the Montauk Drive connection and the
Saratoga Avenue and Fruitvale Avenue connection. The Montauk Drive connection begins at Herriman
Avenue at Saratoga Avenue and ends next to Redwood Middle School at Montauk Drive. The path
connecting Saratoga Avenue and Fruitvale Avenue extends through the Saratoga Library and Heritage
Orchard. Joe’s Trail is another trail in Saratoga reducing bicycle and pedestrian trip lengths by connecting
Saratoga-Sunnyvale Road to Saratoga Avenue. The 1.6-mile bicycle and pedestrian pathway runs along
the PG&E easement parallel to the UPRR railroad tracks and has pedestrian bridges crossing Rodeo Creek
and Saratoga Creek.
Along with sidewalks and trails, there are pedestrian crossing facilities at intersections and road crossings.
These facilities include raised crosswalks that act as traffic calming devices and slow motor vehicle traffic.
There are existing rapid rectangular flashing beacons (RRFBs) at intersections along boulevards and
connectors such as along Cox Avenue, Los Gatos-Saratoga Road (SR 9), Quito Road, and Saratoga Avenue.
Pedestrian improvements are proposed along SR 9 as part of the Highway 9 Pedestrian/Bicycle
Improvements Project. The SR 9 improvements in progress as of 2018 include a pedestrian pathway along
SR 9 from Fruitvale Avenue to El Camino Grande.
The overall pedestrian network in Saratoga is a mix of sidewalks and trails along the city’s major roadways.
Generally, these major roadways do not provide continuous walking access as the roadways often have
sidewalks or trails on only one side of the roadway and have sidewalk gaps. Over the years, the city has
been working to close the gaps and to add sidewalks where appropriate. To further facilitate pedestrian
access, the city has also been adding enhanced pedestrian crossings, with raised crosswalks and/or
pedestrian activated lighted crosswalks (See Figure 3).
Most elementary schools in Saratoga are located along local residential streets that do not have sidewalks
or have gaps in their pedestrian facilities. Painted crosswalks at some intersections help to delineate the
desired path for students walking between various neighborhoods and their school, but often without
landing areas or sidewalks to connect to. Some pathways are provided with time of day no parking zones
in the shoulder. However, without physical separation the existing facilities fall short of Safe System goals
of separating vulnerable users and providing system redundancy.
Since the 1950’s and 1960’s, a couple of key factors have changed, including the increase in levels of
traffic, a rise in people purchasing Sports Utility Vehicles (SUV’s), and distracted driving has seen a spike
with the prevalence of mobile phones. Additionally, roadways were previously designed with large
intersections, wide radius corners, and generally wide widths to facilitate speeds above the 15 miles per
hour (mph) ideal in school zones. Similar to how homes from the 1950’s have needed to be remodeled
over time to meet the needs of residents, roadways should also be remodeled and re-envisioned to reflect
the values of today’s road users and values of the current times.

Bicycle Facilities
Saratoga generally has bicycle facilities along its major roadways that include a mix of bicycle lanes and
bicycle routes. Figure 4 shows the location of existing and proposed bicycle facilities, including multi-use
trails serving both bicycles and pedestrians. Bicycle facility types and standards are described below.
Bicycle Facility Types
Bikeway planning and design in California typically relies on guidelines and design standards established
by California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) in the Highway Design Manual (Chapter 1000:
Bikeway Planning and Design). The VTA Bicycle Technical Guidelines (December 2012) recommends
Caltrans standards regarding bicycle facility dimension be used as a minimum and provides supplemental
information and guidance on when and how to better accommodate the many types of bicyclists. Caltrans
standards provide for four distinct types of bikeway facilities, as generally described below and shown on
the accompanying figures.
• Class I Bikeways (Shared-Use Path) provide a completely separate right-of-way and are
designated for the exclusive use of bicycles and pedestrians, with vehicle and pedestrian crossflow
minimized. In general, bicycle paths serve corridors where on-street facilities are not feasible or
where sufficient right-of-way exists to allow them to be constructed. Joe’s Trail from Prospect
Road to Saratoga Avenue is a Class I unpaved bikeway.
• Class II Bikeways (Bicycle Lanes) are dedicated lanes for bicyclists generally adjacent to the outer
vehicle travel lanes. These lanes have special lane markings, pavement legends, and signage.
Bicycle lanes are typically five feet wide. Adjacent vehicle parking and vehicle/pedestrian crossflow
are permitted. Class II bikeways can be found in the following locations: Prospect Road from
Stelling Road to Saratoga Avenue, Saratoga-Sunnyvale Road from Prospect Road to Saratoga
Avenue, Saratoga-Los Gatos Road from Saratoga Avenue to Santa Cruz Avenue, Herriman
Avenue, Miller Avenue from Summerville Drive to Melinda Circle, Quito Road from Saratoga
Avenue to Allendale Avenue, and Cox Avenue.
249
15
• Class III Bikeways (Bicycle Route) are designated by signs or pavement markings for shared use
with pedestrians or motor vehicles but have no separated bicycle right-of-way or lane striping.
Bicycle routes serve either to a) provide a connection to other bicycle facilities where dedicated
facilities are infeasible, or b) designate preferred routes through high-demand corridors. Class III
bikeways can be found in the following locations: Fruitvale Avenue, Allendale Avenue, Cox Avenue
after Paseo Presada, Wardell Road, Miller Court, Big Basin Way/SR 9, Mt. Eden Road, and Quito
Road south of Allendale Avenue. Although the segment of Fruitvale Avenue between Allendale
Avenue and Burgundy Way has painted shoulder stripes, the narrow shoulder includes a concrete
valley gutter, which does not meet Caltrans standards or VTA guidelines for bicycle lanes.
Therefore, Fruitvale Avenue has Class III bikeways.
250
16
• Class IV Bikeways (cycle tracks or “separated” bikeways) provide a right-of-way designated
exclusively for bicycle travel within a roadway and are protected from other vehicle traffic by
physical barriers including, but not limited to, grade separation, flexible posts, and inflexible
vertical barriers such as raised curbs, or parked cars. Saratoga does not currently have
Class IV bikeways.
Other important bicycle facilities in Saratoga include bicycle and pedestrian bridges, tunnels, and at-grade
railroad crossings, which are defined in the Countywide Bicycle Plan as Across Barrier Connections (ABCs).
These facilities reduce travel distances for bicyclists and pedestrians by providing a direct connection
across barriers such as freeways, rivers, creeks, and railroad tracks. Saratoga has one bicycle and
pedestrian bridge across SR 85 from Azule Park to Kevin Moran Park, connecting Goleta Avenue and
Scully Avenue.
The schools in Saratoga typically do not have access to bike paths (Class I) or bike lanes (Class II).
Although most of the streets near the schools have low posted speeds and volumes, parents and students
prefer riding bicycles on sidewalks, when present. Redwood Middle School has access to the Montauk
Path that cuts through neighborhoods to provide direct access from Herriman Avenue to Montauk Drive.
The two high schools in Saratoga are located on Saratoga-Sunnyvale Road and Prospect Road, both with
Class II bicycle facilities. Christa McAuliffe Elementary School, Saint Andrew's School, and Sacred Heart
School also have access to Class II bicycle facilities along Saratoga Avenue and Prospect Road.

Collision History
Five years of the most current crash data available at the time (2015-2019) was extracted from the
Statewide Integrated Traffic Records System (SWITRS) and Transportation Injury Mapping System (TIMS)
databases. The datasets include extensive collision detail, such as collision location, type, severity, parties
involved, contributing factors, and more.
Between January 2015 and December
2019, there were 15 reported collisions
involving nonmotorized users in the
City of Saratoga within a quarter-mile
buffer around schools. This collision
data includes seven pedestrian
collisions and eight bicycle collisions.
Figure 5 shows the collisions and their
proximity to schools in Saratoga. In
Chart 1, the total number of collisions
for bicycles and pedestrians spiked in
2018 around schools, but then started
to decline; reports do not show any
collisions around schools in 2019, but
that may be due to incomplete
collision reporting data. There were
two fatal collisions in Saratoga in 2016
and 2017. Both killed or severely
injured (KSI) collisions occurred on
Fruitvale Avenue in the boundary of Redwood Middle School.
Contextual Trends
As seen in Figure 5, the collision hotspots are occurring in various parts throughout the city, especially
along major roadways. Some roadways of note are Saratoga-Sunnyvale Road, Saratoga Avenue, Big Basin
Way, and Prospect Road. Some schools near collision hotspots are Foothill Elementary School, Prospect
High School, Redwood Middle School, Saratoga Elementary School, and St. Andrews School.

Public Outreach
As part of the existing conditions analysis and outreach for the Safe Routes to School Plan, a series of walk
audits were conducted in Summer 2021. The SRTS Technical Advisory Committee (TAC)—made up of
community members, City staff, Traffic Safety Commission (TSC) members, and Santa Clara Sheriff
Officers—attended site visits at all 11 schools. Photos and walking routes from the walk audits can be
found in Appendix A.
In addition to the walk audits, a public meeting was held on October 9, 2021 at the City’s Traffic Safety
Commission (TSC). The city also collected approximately 60 online surveys throughout the summer and
fall of 2021, which are described in more detail below.
The Safe Routes to School Technical Advisory Committee reached out to all 11 schools and offered to give
a presentation about the City’s efforts and progress on the Safe Routes to School Master Plan at a future
Parent Teacher Association (PTA) meeting. The City customized the presentation for each school and
distributed each presentation to the appropriate school with feedback received and summarized below.
SRTS Technical Advisory Committee (TAC)
The SRTS TAC included community members, City staff, TSC members, and Santa Clara Sherriff Officers.
The TAC provided direct input and feedback throughout the process of developing the Plan and the
countermeasures and implementation recommendations. The TAC met three times throughout the
project: 1) at project kick-off to set goals and objectives; 2) before the walk audits to go over a potential
set of toolbox options; and 3) after the walk audits to debrief and provide further input and refinement of
recommendations.
Walk Audits
In May 2021, the SRTS TAC, school principals, city staff, and Fehr & Peers visited all 11 schools for a walk
audit. Each walk audit included a morning briefing to go over the day’s logistics and a guided walk around
the perimeter of the school site and any nearby streets that students typically frequent. Due to limitations
associated with the COVID-19 pandemic, the debrief meeting took place virtually. Attendees of the walk
audit were invited to participate in a virtual meeting after the walk audits to discuss what was observed in
the field and what improvements could potentially be considered for the future and for inclusion the Safe
Routes to School Plan.
Community Meeting
On October 9, 2021, a virtual community meeting was held at the City’s Traffic Safety Commission
meeting where the draft recommended toolbox of options for improvements were presented. The
community meeting also provided an opportunity to gain additional input from attendees. Attendees
were asked four questions which are shown below in Figure 6 to Figure 9.
255
21
Most of the attendees of the community meeting were residents of Saratoga and were largely concerned
about traffic safety within the city and interested in seeing future improvements around safety near
schools. Attendees were mainly concerned about speeding and safety. The majority of attendees felt that
more sidewalks were needed to improve walking and bicycling in the community, especially near schools.
Other suggestions included traffic calming, traffic safety education, bicycle lanes, and adding
street lighting.

Online Public Outreach Survey
The city had an online survey available on the city’s website from May 2021 through September 2021 to
solicit responses from residents and school communities on issues or proposed recommendations to
encourage walking and bicycling around schools, but also in surrounding neighborhoods. The City
collected all comments and overall, the City received 83 written comments from community members in
Saratoga. See Appendix B for a full list of public responses gathered. The city also reached out to the
Youth Commission to gain direct feedback from student representatives on their experience and
recommendations for future improvements.
See Figure 10 and Figure 11 below for a summary of feedback received on obstacles and suggestions for
walking and bicycling improvements from the community. The majority of respondents commented on
how lack of sidewalks, speeding, and lack of bike lanes were the biggest obstacles affecting walking and
bicycling today. The majority of respondents then suggested that building sidewalks, building bicycle
facilities, and installing traffic calming devices were the top priorities to improve walking and bicycling in
the city. Respondents of the survey have indicated a desire for sidewalks. The city prioritizes sidewalk gap
closures in areas with high pedestrian traffic within the city. These areas include areas near schools and
other areas where walking paths are most needed. Additionally, the city creates construction conditions
for new development projects to install sidewalks at the city right-of-way when city plans identify future
sidewalks at those locations.

Outreach to Schools
The Safe Routes to School Technical Advisory Committee reached out to all 11 schools and offered to give
a presentation about the City’s efforts and progress on the Safe Routes to School Master Plan at a future
Parent Teacher Association (PTA) meeting. Only Saratoga High School PTA invited the TAC to present at
its meeting on February 3, 2022. Meeting attendees included school administrators and school board
members. At that meeting, the SRTS TAC gave information about the project background, described the
project goals and identified the various locations and traffic safety improvements that are recommended
for the various locations. The PTA members expressed appreciation for the efforts being done toward
improving traffic safety around Saratoga.
The City customized the presentation for each school and distributed each presentation to the
appropriate school. School community members were asked to provide feedback by contacting City staff
or commenting on the online form. See Appendix C for a full list of public responses gathered. These
recommendations reflect the comprehensive project list developed.
See Figure 10 and Figure 11 below for a summary of feedback received on obstacles and suggestions for
walking and bicycling improvements from the schools and PTAs. The majority of respondents commented

Toolbox of Options & Selection
Strategy
The following section describes the toolbox of options for countermeasures and the implementation
strategy for installing improvements around school sites.
Toolbox of Options
The toolbox of options for countermeasures and the descriptions for each are presented below.
Countermeasure Description
All-Way Stop
Converting two-way stops to all-way stops prevents motorists, bicyclists, and pedestrians from having to cross free-flowing lanes of traffic at a side-street stop-controlled intersection and reduces the risk of collision.
Crossing Guard
Traffic management personnel helps students cross the street during morning and afternoon pick-up/drop-off
Curb Extensions
Widens the sidewalk at intersections or midblock crossings to shorten the pedestrian crossing distance, to make pedestrians more visible to vehicles, and to reduce the speed of turning vehicles.
Curb Radius Reduction
Reducing the curb radius can slow vehicular speeds
Curb Ramps
Provides accessible transition from street to sidewalk for all, including people with disabilities, children on bicycles, people pushing strollers, etc. curb ramps must comply with the Americans with Disability Act
(ADA) standards for accessibility.
High-Visibility Crosswalks
A crosswalk that is designed to be more visible to approaching drivers. Crosswalks should be designed with continental markings and use high-visibility material, such as inlay tape or thermoplastic tape instead of
paint.
Improved Right-Turn Slip Lanes
Slows vehicles by improving right-turn “pork chop” design, adding raised crossing, or removing slip lane
In-Street Pedestrian Crossing Signs
The “Yield Here to Pedestrians” signs alert drivers about the presence of pedestrians. These signs are required with Advance Yield Lines. Other
sign types can be placed on the centerline in the roadway.
263
29
Countermeasure Description
Intersection/Street-Scale Lighting
Street and intersection lighting helps make pedestrians and other road users or hazards more visible to motorists at night, improving driver perception and reaction time and reducing the risk of collision.
Last-Mile Connection to Citywide Bicycle Network
Improved connections to/from schools from city’s bicycle network
Leading Pedestrian Interval (LPI)
Gives people walking a head start, making them more visible to drivers turning right or left. “WALK” signal comes on a few seconds before the cars get their green light. May be used in combination with No Right
Turn on Red restrictions.
Median Refuge Island
Reduces turning vehicle speeds and provides refuge for long crossings by providing curbed sections in center of roadway
Pedestrian Countdown Timer
Displays “countdown” of seconds remaining on the pedestrian signal. Countdown indications improve safety for all road users, and are required for all newly installed traffic signals where pedestrian signals are installed.
Pedestrian Hybrid Beacon (PHB)
Pedestrian-activated beacon used at mid-block crosswalks and side-street stop-controlled intersections to notify oncoming motorists to stop with a series of red and yellow lights. Also known as a high-intensity activated crosswalk (HAWK) beacon.
Pedestrian-Level Lighting
Specialty pedestrian-level lighting may be placed over the sidewalks to improve pedestrian comfort, security, and safety. Well-lit pedestrian areas make people walking through the area feel safer. At intersections,
lighting should also be placed before the crosswalk on the approach into the intersection.
Placement of Stop Signs
Place stop signs as close to stop bar or stop marking as possible to improve safety
Protected Corners/ Intersections
Physically separates pedestrians and bicyclists from motorists in an intersection, reduces vehicle speeds, crossing distances, and facilitates left-turns for bicyclists at smaller intersections and in select contexts
Protected Left-Turns
Provides dedicated left-turn arrow for vehicles while stopping on-coming traffic and parallel pedestrian crossings to eliminate conflicts
264
30
Countermeasure Description
Raised Crosswalks
The crosswalk is elevated to match the sidewalk to make pedestrians more visible to approaching vehicles. Typically located at midblock crossings or across free right-turns, they encourage motorists to yield to pedestrians and reduce vehicle speed. An entire intersection may be
raised similarly.
Rectangular Rapid Flashing Beacons (RRFB)
Pedestrian-activated flashing lights and additional signage enhance the visibility of marked crosswalks and alert motorists to pedestrian
crossings.
Roundabout
Roundabouts are circular intersections designed to eliminate left turns by requiring traffic to travel in a counter-clockwise direction and exit to the right. Installed to manage vehicular speeds, reduce pedestrian exposure, improve safety at intersections through eliminating angle collisions, and help traffic flow more efficiently.
School Signage
Signs installed near schools warning drivers that they are in a school zone.
School Speed Limit Signs
Indicates lowered speed limits within school zones.
Sidewalks
Sidewalks and walkways are “pedestrian lanes” that provide people space to travel within the public right-of-way that is separated from roadway vehicles. They are associated with reduced crashes where
pedestrians were walking along the roadway.
Sightlines/Red Curb/Daylighting
Improves pedestrian and motorist sightlines at intersections with red curb, pavement markings, or signage within at least 20 feet of an intersection.
Striped Shoulder
Widened shoulders create greater separation between vehicles and pedestrians and also provide motor vehicle safety benefits, such as space for inoperable vehicles to pull out of the travel lane.
Student Friendly Bicycle Infrastructure: Class I, Class IV, and/or traffic-calmed Bicycle Boulevard
Bicycle lane that is separated, protected, and/or has traffic calming elements.
Time Restricted Parking
No parking signs by time-of-day.
265
31
Countermeasure Description
Traffic Calming Treatments
Traffic calming to reduce vehicular speeds.
Turn Restrictions
Reduces conflicts between motorists and pedestrians crossing the street by restricting select turning movements at all times or by time-of-day. Prohibiting right-run-on-red movements should be considered at
skewed intersections, or where exclusive pedestrian “WALK” phases,
Leading Pedestrian Intervals (LPIs), sight distance issues, or high pedestrian volumes are present. Can help prevent crashes between vehicles turning right on red from one street and through vehicles on the cross street, and crashes involving pedestrians.
Two-Way Stop
Converting an uncontrolled intersection to a two-way stop prevents motorists, bicyclists, and pedestrians from having to cross free-flowing lanes, reduces the risk of collision, and assigns clear right-of-way.
Selection Strategy
Table 1 and Table 2 are organized by the existing traffic control type that exists today at the intersections
and what improvement options could be considered for those locations. Table 3 is organized by the
corridor characteristic and proximity to school entrances and what improvements may be considered
along those streets.

Project Development
As a result of the walking audits, public input, and the city’s previous and ongoing planning efforts and
projects, a comprehensive project list was developed for each of the schools while taking into account the
toolbox of options and selection strategy described in the previous section. See Appendix D for the
comprehensive project list for all schools. From the comprehensive project list, a set of Phase 1 projects
were identified based on project cost, funding, and feasibility. Although these project were identified as
part of the Safe Routes to School planning effort, each of these projects and improvements will still need
to be vetted by the community through additional focused community outreach, input from the City
Traffic Safety Commission (TSC), and approval through City Council.
Phased Implementation Methodology
The city recognizes the importance of expediency and has therefore proposed to phase the
implementation based on lower cost and ease of feasibility, compared to higher cost measures that may
require future capital funding through grants or programmatic capital. The city would like to implement as
much of the Safe Routes to School Plan as possible within the near term. Some recommendations
highlighted in the Safe Routes to School Plan, such as sidewalks, will be a longer-term goal as funding
becomes available.
As funding and city priorities shift, the city may look to the Safe System fundamentals to select additional
projects for implementation. Safe System priority locations would be those with the greatest risk for
severe injury and fatality based on speed, angle of collision, and chances of exposure. To this end, a
prioritization effort for kinetic energy reduction potential of the project list in this report may be pursued
in the future.
Phase 0: Current and Proposed City Projects
The following describes currently proposed city projects that are directly adjacent or within the immediate
vicinity of Saratoga schools that the city is already working towards. These projects were considered as
the SRTS effort reviewed the opportunities and needs at each school site.
• Fruitvale Avenue Speed Limit Signs:
Four Flashing SR4-1(CA), School Speed Limit Assembly C (CA), and radar enforcement signs were
proposed near the intersections of Fruitvale Avenue and Career Way, and the intersection of
Saratoga Avenue and Scotland Drive. A 25 mile per hour school speed limit sign was proposed at
Saratoga Avenue and Crestbrook Drive, and the intersection of Allendale Avenue and
Science Way.
• Reid Lane:
Three speed tables along Reid Lane between Saratoga-Sunnyvale Road and Saratoga Hills Road
were proposed for a traffic calming plan. At the intersection of Lynde Avenue and Reid Avenue,
270
36
intersection restriping was proposed to realign the centerline at Lynde, and add striping along
Lynde and the west side of the intersection across Reid Lane.
• Sobey Road:
A conceptual phased Traffic Calming Plan on Sobey Road from Quito Road south of Pollard Road
to Quito Road south of Twin Creeks Road. This traffic calming plan includes installing high-
visibility crosswalks, Rectangular Rapid Flashing Beacons (RRFB) and raised crosswalks, speed
feedback signs, speed humps, centerline striping with guard rails, and 25 mile per hour right-turn
warning signs.
• Allendale Avenue:
A buffered bicycle lane striping concept (see Figure 12 below) is proposed along Allendale
Avenue between Fruitvale Avenue and Chester Avenue. This striping concept includes a 6’
buffered bicycle lane on both sides of Allendale Avenue and connects to the existing buffered
bike lanes east of Chester Avenue.
Figure 12: Buffered Bicycle Lanes

Phase 1: Implementation Projects
Within Phase 1, the improvements and locations are shown in Figure 13 and described in the table below.
These seven intersections will encompass a range of countermeasures and improvements, including
RRFBs, high-visibility crosswalks, ADA ramps, intersection tightening, curb extensions, and signage.

Desired Routes to Schools
The City of Saratoga has drafted a series of Desired Routes to Schools maps. Figures 5-11 show the
desired walking routes (in pink) for pedestrians and bicyclists in Saratoga. The dashed lines in the figures
represent proposed new trails. The routes were identified as the most direct roads/trails that people are
likely to take on the way to these schools now and/or in the future. Prioritizing enhancement projects that
fall along these desired routes could help support mode shift while addressing areas with the highest
need.
The traffic safety recommendations contained in this Safe Routes to School Master Plan are intended to
improve the pedestrian and bicycle paths and intersections within a quarter mile to one-half of a mile
leading to the various schools in Saratoga. The City of Saratoga plans on implementing the traffic safety
recommendations contained in this Safe Routes to School Master Plan soon after the Plan is adopted.
Once the improvements have been made, the City will develop route maps for each of the schools and
will distribute the maps to the school community so that students and families are aware of the safer
routes to school for bicycling or walking.

Recommended Future Citywide
Policies and Plans
The following section presents recommended future citywide policies and plans that should be pursued to
further advance the goals of Safe Routes to School and encourage walking and bicycling in the
community. These policies and plans can also help work towards the Safe System approach where the city
takes a more holistic and proactive approach.
Neighborhood Traffic Calming Program
The city should consider creating a comprehensive citywide traffic calming program, which could include
elements such as speed humps, speed feedback signs, lane reductions or lane narrowing, and more. The
city would need to study this comprehensively in order to create a process and gain a greater
understanding of potential traffic shifts or changes that may occur when traffic calming elements are
installed. Creating a Neighborhood Traffic Calming Program would also allow the city to build upon the
great work that has recently been done through adoption of a speed hump policy.
Citywide Bicycle Master Plan
Bicycle facilities are present throughout the City of Saratoga, especially with more recent bicycle
infrastructure projects. The city should create a Citywide Bicycle Master Plan to establish a connected bike
network and adopt city standards and policies. This would allow the city to leverage the existing and
current ongoing bikeway projects to be more widely utilized by a greater range of users and abilities in
the city.
School Crosswalk Policy
The city currently has a City Crosswalk Policy. The city could build upon this existing work to create
specific crosswalk policies surrounding school sites. This would allow for greater flexibility in installing
marked and high-visibility crosswalks for vulnerable street users, such as school-aged children.
School Policies for All-Way Stop Signs
The city may want to explore adopting a local ordinance and criteria for installing all-way stop signs in
school zones to increase traffic safety in residential neighborhoods. All-way stop signs function to clearly
assign right-of-way at intersections, which can also be paired with marked crosswalks to enhance safety
for bicyclists and pedestrians.
282
48
School Speed Zones
The city may also want to consider adopting a local ordinance for setting speed limits in school zones,
especially in light of the recently adopted Assembly Bill (A.B.) 43 state legislation. This new legislation
allows local authorities to consider the safety of vulnerable street users when setting speed limits.
Additionally, the California Vehicle Code (CVC) Section 22352 sets a 25 miles per hour (mph) prima facie
speed limit 2 on roads approaching or passing a school. The 25 mph speed limit zones are established by
the posting of a standard “SCHOOL” warning sign at a distance up to 500 feet away from school grounds.
CVC Section 22358.4 (b)(1) states that a local authority may, by ordinance or resolution, determine and
declare the prima facie speed limit of 15 mph, in a residential district, on roads approaching, at a distance
up to 400 feet, or passing a school.
ADA Transition Plan
It is recommended that the city work toward creating an Americans with Disabilities Act (ADA) Transition
Plan to establish clear guidance and policies on how the city will work on upgrading and installing
infrastructure that is ADA-compliant and accommodates all users of the roadway.
2 A prima facie speed limit is the speed limit that applies when no other specific speed limit is posted.
283
49
School Campus On-Site
Recommendations
To further encourage walking and bicycling, below are some strategies and policies the City and School
District should collaborate on to in order to enhance access, convenience, and safety for students.
Accessible On-Site Circulation Routes
The city and the schools should work collaboratively to assess on-site circulation at the school sites to
ensure there are safe and convenient routes from the sidewalk to the front door of the schools.
Additionally, crosswalks should be marked and highly visible through parking lots, to enhance safety for
people walking through parking lots to get to and from the school entrance.
Secure Bicycle, Scooter, and Skateboard Parking Locations
Most schools in Saratoga provide bicycle parking locations on campus. Schools should provide secure,
safe, and convenient bicycle, scooter, and skateboard parking locations for students. The racks and
parking locations should have paved and accessible paths for students to access the provided
parking areas.
Back Entrances/Exits to Schools During School Pick-Up/Drop-Off
Hours
Additional entrances to the school allow for more convenient walking and bicycling access and may also
reduce conflict points with busier roads and drop off zones. This recommendation should be taken into
careful consideration before implementation. There may be other public safety, traffic congestion, and
location-specific issues to consider before a rear or secondary entrance/exit is unlocked for pick-up/drop-
off hours. But this recommendation may provide the benefit of relieving congestion during the morning
and afternoon peak periods.
284
50
Citywide Programs
A Safe System requires a holistic and integrated approach from multiple stakeholders. In addition to the
focus on creating safer roadways and safer speeds through road design, as presented in the previous
sections, citywide programs can support safer road users, safer speeds, and post-crash care.
Public Education Media Campaign
Transportation safety education plays an important role in shaping and shifting behavior, especially when
paired with community engagement to make streets safer for all people. Public education media
campaigns focused on discouraging speeding, encouraging increased awareness of pedestrians and
bicyclists at night, and encouraging appropriate crosswalk behaviors for all modes would be beneficial for
the city. Targeted education, such as on buses and bus shelters, on billboards, at movie theaters, or on
local radio stations, may be directed at vulnerable populations with the help of local partners, and at
certain behaviors of drivers, pedestrians, and bicyclists to deter specific collision types.
Partnerships with Local Schools
The City of Saratoga could partner with local schools to promote safe driver behavior. Education
campaigns could involve students promoting safer driving to their parents by holding signs during
pick-ups and drop-offs. Expanding youth involvement in engagement and awareness, such as the Youth
Commission, presents an opportunity to connect with students and expand year-round education on Safe
Routes to School.
Office of Traffic Safety (OTS) grants also offer a variety of education programs intended to teach high
school students about the dangers of driving under the influence of drugs and alcohol, including Every 15
Minutes, Sober Graduation, and DUI mock trials. A more detailed discussion of funding opportunities is
presented in the “Future Funding and Implementation” section of this report.
Education on New Roadway Design Changes
Temporary demonstrations, like pop-up style installations, can physically showcase proposed safety
infrastructure and emergency response to the public in a tangible way. Using social media platforms such
as Nextdoor, Facebook, Twitter, or Instagram to prepare and promote materials and videos focused on
new types of roadway designs or improvements could direct community conversations for meaningful
outcomes. It could also provide an opportunity for education on how to properly utilize or navigate new
types of roadway improvements.
Automated Enforcement
Automated enforcement methods, such as red-light cameras or speed safety cameras, equitably target
the specific drivers who are behaving dangerously. A strictly data-driven approach to automated
285
51
enforcement might place red-light or speed cameras in locations with the highest number of collisions;
however, speed safety cameras are not currently allowed in California. The city and the County Sherriff’s
Office should monitor potential changes to state legislation for future use of this critical tool, should it
become available.
School Safety Officers
Some Santa Clara County Sheriff’s Officers are assigned to schools in Saratoga as School Resource
Officers (SROs). Although SRO’s typically focus their efforts on issues such as drugs or other on-campus
problems, SROs can also play a role in helping with traffic issues on or near campus.
Crossing Guards
Crossing guards are an important component to encourage walking and bicycling at schools. Crossing
guards help students and parents safely cross the street at key locations near schools. They function to
remind drivers of the presence of pedestrians and can lead to parents feeling comfortable about letting
their children walk or bicycle to school.
Emergency Medical Services (EMS) Response
Victims involved in a collision have a higher chance of survival if they can quickly receive medical care. In
many cases, law enforcement officers and fire department staff are the first responders to arrive at a
collision location. In addition to equipping all first responders with the appropriate training, improving
response times for EMS would help improve the chance of survival for collision victims. Collisions can also
put the lives of first responders and other road users at risk due to increased congestion during the crash
response, which may lead to secondary crashes.
The city could work with EMS to improve response times and ensure safety in both arriving at and
attending to patients at the scene. Strategies could include implementing emergency vehicle signal
preemption, which allows emergency vehicles to break a normal traffic signal cycle and proceed through
an intersection.
Post-Crash Care Policy, Practices, and Additional Resources
When individuals are injured in collisions, they rely on emergency first responders to quickly locate them,
stabilize their injuries, and transport them to medical facilities. Post-crash care also includes forensic
analysis at the crash site and traffic incident management, so that traffic flow may be restored as safely
and quickly as possible. Policy action through the justice system and appropriate design of roadways to
lessen the risk of future crashes can also help inform safety programs.
Crash reporting practices, such as complete data collection and documentation of road user behavior and
infrastructure, and sharing data across agencies or organizations (e.g., among police departments,
transportation officials, and hospitals) can help lead to a greater understanding of the holistic safety
landscape, and thus lead to improved investments in safety.
286
52
To ensure a crash survivor receives the care needed to recover and restore body and mind to an active life
within society, medical rehabilitation with specialists can range from orthopedics, neurosurgery, physical
and occupational therapy, and prosthetics to psychology and neuropsychology.
Severe and fatal collisions not only affect the victim involved, but their family and friends as well. Across
the nation, in Canada, and locally in the San Francisco Bay Area, there are chapters of Families for Safe
Streets. This group advocates at the state capitol in Sacramento and works with lawmakers and non-
profits like Mothers Against Drunk Driving (MADD) to share their stories and testify before legislative
committees. Supporting victims’ families can come in many forms. World Day of Remembrance for Road
Traffic Victims is an annual event held on the third Sunday in November in remembrance of those who
have died or have been affected by motor vehicle collisions.
287
53
Evaluation
As the Safe Routes to School Plan is implemented incrementally over the coming years and its effects start
to materialize, the City of Saratoga should be able to identify changes over time. Measuring performance
allows the city to track impacts of improvements and potentially reallocate investments and refocus
priorities, if needed.
Tracking Mode of Access
The city should work with the Saratoga School District and private schools to provide parent surveys and
tally sheets to track the number of students that are walking and biking to school. The Safe Routes to
School National Partnership provides take-home surveys that parents can fill out to describe the way they
travel to and from school.
With the support of teachers and school staff, the district and private schools could poll students in
classrooms to tally how students get to school. The SRTS National Partnership also provides an in-class
tally sheet that documents three days over any given week. The district and private schools should
provide these periodically throughout the year to track progress. The SRTS National Partnership acts as a
data clearinghouse, and tallies and parent surveys can be sent in to be recorded. This information can be
viewed online and assessed over time, as projects and programs are implemented.
Tracking Counts
Bicycle and pedestrian counts are important and allow the city to perform before and after analyses of a
project, measure demand, quantify costs and benefits, and explain the behavior of bicyclists and
pedestrians. The city should explore counting pedestrians and bicyclists before and after major projects
are constructed. The city should also pursue funding for a regular schedule of conducting counts across
the city to evaluate progress in shifting travel modes to active transportation. Technology for automated
bicycle and pedestrian counters is increasing in presence and accuracy. Manual counts can also
be performed.
Tracking Collisions
Tracking bicycle and pedestrian collisions is important to determine safety hot spots and prioritize future
needs for bicycle and pedestrian improvement projects. Saratoga police officers receive training to
accurately record collision details. Components of such documentation include location, cause, severity of
injury, and direction of travel of each party.
288
54
The Saratoga Police Department regularly identifies corridors with the highest number of collisions. This
data could be supplemented with a detailed analysis in conjunction with bicycle and pedestrian counts to
determine the crash rate by pedestrian and bicyclist density. A spatial analysis of collisions in the form of a
heat map or types of crashes at different locations can also provide a more detailed guide to
implementing effective safety countermeasures. The city’s Capital Engineering Department should
regularly coordinate with the Police Department to review collision data and identify potential
countermeasures to address hotspot locations.
Tracking Near Misses, Hazards, and Comfort Level
The city should regularly survey the community on pedestrian and bicycle comfort levels, especially
around schools to assess how improvements are changing perception of comfort. The surveys may also
provide insight into locations that need greater attention for future improvements. The city should also
create an internal tracking mechanism for public requests for hazards or near misses that are reported to
gain a greater understanding of long-term trends and areas of the city that may need additional attention
for future improvements. Near misses may provide anecdotal information on locations in the city that may
benefit from safety improvements.
289
55
Future Funding and Implementation
Many potential funding sources may be available for additional efforts. The following summarizes
potential local, state, and federal funding sources related to transportation safety. Saratoga will also
continue to look for opportunities to layer safety-related projects onto other capital improvement
projects, as well as maintenance projects and through review and approval of private development.
Federal Funding Sources
Affordable Housing and Sustainable Communities Program (AHSC)
The AHSC Program, administered by the Strategic Growth Council and implemented by the Department
of Housing and Community Development (HCD), funds land use, housing, transportation, and land
preservation projects to support infill and compact development that reduces greenhouse gas (GHG)
emissions. This program will assist project areas by providing grants and/or loans, or any combination
thereof, that will achieve GHG emission reductions and benefit disadvantaged communities and low-
income households though increased accessibility of affordable housing, employment centers, and key
destinations via low-carbon transportation. This results in fewer vehicle miles traveled through shortened
or reduced trip lengths or mode shifts from single occupancy vehicles to use of transit, bicycling, or
walking. The project areas this funding is geared toward are transit-oriented development (TOD) project
areas, integrated connectivity project (ICP) project areas, or rural innovation project areas (RIPA).
RAISE Grant
The U.S. Department of Transportation is committed to creating high-quality jobs, improving safety,
protecting our environment, and generating equitable economic opportunity for all Americans with their
Rebuilding American Infrastructure with Sustainability and Equity (RAISE) grant. Projects will be evaluated
based on merit criteria that includes safety, environmental sustainability, quality of life, economic
competitiveness, state of good repair, innovation, and partnership. It is one of the few DOT discretionary
programs for which regional and local governments can directly compete for multimodal
transportation funding.
Safe Routes to School (SRTS) Funding
Safe Routes to School (SRTS) is a program promoting walking and bicycling to school through
infrastructure improvements, tools, safety education, and incentives to encourage these modes of travel.
Nationally, 10% to 14% of car trips during the morning rush hour are for school travel. SRTS can be
implemented at the state, community, or local school district level. Competitive federal funding is
available through the Fixing America’s Surface Transportation Act (FAST Act). Depending on the existing
infrastructure, SRTS may require that education, transportation, public safety, and city planning agencies
coordinate their effort.
290
56
Safe Streets for All (SS4A)
The recent federal infrastructure bill established the new Safe Streets for All program to provide $5 billion
in grant funding to develop and implement Vision Zero safety plans. Current legislation emphasizes
funding of planning efforts, but the focus on implementation funding is expected to increase over the
next few years.
State Funding Sources
Active Transportation Program (ATP) Funding
The Active Transportation Program (ATP) was created by Senate Bill 99 to encourage increased use of
active modes of transportation such as walking and biking. The goals of the ATP include, but are not
limited to, increasing the proportion of trips accomplished by walking and biking, increasing the safety
and mobility of non-motorized users, advancing efforts of regional agencies to achieve greenhouse gas
reduction goals, enhancing public health, and providing a broad spectrum of projects to benefit many
types of users, including disadvantaged communities. SB 1 directs $100 million annually to the ATP, with
more than 400 of the funded projects being Safe Routes to School projects and programs that encourage
a healthy and active lifestyle throughout students’ lives.
California Office of Traffic Safety (OTS) Grant Programs
OTS administers traffic safety grants in the following areas: alcohol impaired driving, distracted driving,
drug-impaired driving, emergency medical services, motorcycle safety, occupant protection, pedestrian
and bicycle safety, police traffic services, public relations, advertising, and roadway safety and
traffic records.
Caltrans Sustainable Transportation Planning Grants
The Sustainable Transportation Planning Grants include two parts: Sustainable Communities Grants and
Strategic Partnerships Grants. The Sustainable Communities Grants have $29.5 million set aside to
encourage local and regional planning goals and best practices cited in the Regional Transportation Plan
Guidelines. The Strategic Partnerships Grants set aside $4.5 million to identify and address statewide,
interregional, or regional transportation deficiencies on the state highway system in partnership with
Caltrans. These grants were released for Fiscal Year 2020-21 and applications were due October 17, 2019.
Grant announcements were made in June 2020. There is the possibility of another grant on the horizon,
but Caltrans has not released any new information yet.
Highway Safety Improvement Program (HSIP)
California’s Local HSIP focuses on infrastructure projects with nationally recognized crash reduction
factors (CRFs). Local HSIP projects must be identified on the basis of collision experience, collision
potential, collision rate, or other data-supported means.
291
57
Local Partnership Program (LPP)
The Local Partnership Program’s purpose is to provide local and regional transportation agencies that
have passed sales tax measures, developer fees, or other imposed transportation fees, with a funding of
$200 million annually from the Road Maintenance and Rehabilitation Account to fund aging
infrastructure, road conditions, active transportation, and health and safety benefits projects. LPP funds
are distributed through a 50% statewide competitive component and a 50% formulaic component. Both
programs are eligible to jurisdictions with voter approved taxes, tolls, and fees dedicated solely to
transportation and the competitive program.
Local Streets and Roads Program (LSRP)
California SB 1 has dedicated approximately $1.5 billion per year appointed by the State Controller
(Controller) to cities and counties for basic road maintenance, rehabilitation, and critical safety projects on
the local streets and roads system. Cities and counties must submit a proposed projects list adopted at a
regular meeting by their board or council that is then submitted to the California Transportation
Commission (Commission). Once reviewed and adopted by the Commission, eligible cities and counties
receive funding from the Controller and an Annual Project Expenditure Report is sent to the Commission
to be transparent with program funding received and expended.
Senate Bill (SB) 1 Funding
The U.S. Department of Transportation’s Senate Bill 1 (SB 1), also known as the Road Repair and
Accountability Act of 2017, is a landmark transportation investment to rebuild California by fixing
neighborhood streets, freeways, and bridges in communities across California and targeting funding
toward transit and congested trade and commute corridor improvements.
The largest portion of SB 1 funding goes to California’s state-maintained transportation infrastructure.
With this funding, Caltrans has a goal of repairing or replacing 17,000 miles of pavement in 10 years,
spending $250 million annually for congestion solutions, over $700 million for better transit commutes,
and supporting freight improvements. The other portion of SB 1 funding will go to local roads, transit
agencies, and expanding the state’s pedestrian and cycle routes. SB 1 funds various grant programs.
Transformative Climate Communities (TCC) Program
The TCC Program funds community-led development and infrastructure projects that strive to make major
advances in environmental, health, and economic benefits in California’s most disadvantaged
communities. Eligible improvements for this funding source include active transportation and public
transit projects, transit ridership programs and passes for low-income riders, and encouraging education
and planning activities to promote increased use of active modes of transportation.
292
58
County Funding Sources
Lifeline Transportation Program
The Metropolitan Transportation Commission (MTC) has created the Lifeline Transportation Program to
evaluate state and federal funds to provide grants for mobility and accessibility needs in low-income
communities across the Bay Area. New guidelines are established for each cycle and the projects must
address transportation gaps or barriers identified in community-based transportation plans or other local
planning efforts in low-income neighborhoods.
293
59
City or Other Funding Sources
Developer Fees
California law allows local governments to establish and charge a fee on residential and non-residential
development to fund public facilities and to service population growth. Local agencies should update
their transportation analysis guidelines to reflect safety improvements for all modes of travel. Public
facility fees can be charged to new development based on density and traffic impacts, and can go to a
variety of public facilities, including local roadways.
COVID-19 American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) Funds
The American Rescue Plan Act (ARPA) was signed into law on March 11, 2021, in response to the COVID-
19 pandemic to provide direct relief to cities, towns, and villages in the United States. Among the variety
of eligible expenses, ARPA funds are available to support public services to replace lost public sector
revenue.
Landscape & Lighting Assessment Districts
The City of Saratoga currently has 36 special assessment districts which voted to have the city provide
oversight and maintenance of trees, landscaping, irrigation systems, and lighting systems in
neighborhood and commercial areas. These funds could be allocated to provide more lighting near
schools to improve visibility and safety.
Repaving Funds
As the city undergoes routine maintenance to repave local streets, there is an opportunity to integrate
identified Safe Routes to School improvements as a low-cost way to implement projects. Should budget
and funds allow, improvements such as signing, striping, and curb ramps may be incorporated into
repaving projects and plans. The City of Saratoga funds street resurfacing through various sources, such
as the Santa Clara Valley Transportation Authority (VTA) Measure B program, Gas Tax, General Fund
allocations, and various grants.

Subject Safe Route to School Redwood Middle and Traffic infractions on
Shadow Oak
Comments The pedestrian crossing on Shadow Oaks and Montauk Drive
Path has had berms installed to facilitate crossing.
However parents stop to to drop off and pick up children (in
Violation on the non stopping sign) on the actual berms, reducing
visibility for the crosswalk .
I drive on Shadow Oaks multiple times a day during school pick
and drop-off and the situation it pretty dangerous as stopped cars
block views of the crossing.
So unless the non stopping is enforced, the visibility cars driving
on Shadow Oaks have of children walking the pedestrian
crossing is more limited than if berms were not there. One
solution in the plan was to 'fill the berms" however that does not
address at all the issues. My suggestion would be to ask the
school safety officer to enforce the no stopping no parking sign,

SARATOGA CITY COUNCIL
MEETING DATE:September 7, 2022
DEPARTMENT:Community Development Department
PREPARED BY:Tony Gonzalez, Code Compliance Officer
SUBJECT:Report on Public Street Parking Regulations
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Staff recommends that the City Council review the information in this report and provide staff
direction as needed.
BACKGROUND:
In the last two years, the Code Enforcement Division has received approximately ten (10)
complaints regarding recreational vehicles, commercial trailers and large commercial vehicles
parked and/or stored on streets. In all cases the complainants allege that the recreational vehicles,
commercial trailers,and large commercial vehicles create a traffic hazard for other drivers due to
their location and that the owners of these vehicles are using public streets for storage of their large
commercial vehicles and trailers.Code Enforcement responded to these complaints, verified the
complainants’concerns, and then referred the cases to the Sheriff’s Department for follow-up as
they enforce parking regulations on city streets.
The California Vehicle Code Section 22651(k) and Saratoga City Code Section 9-25.010 prohibits
vehicles, including but not limited to recreational vehicles, commercial trailers,and commercial
vehicles, to be parked or left standing for 72 hours or more.
City Code Section 9-25.030 Parking of Certain Commercial Vehicles on Residential Streets
regulates large commercial vehicles or trailers parked and/or stored in residential areas. The
ordinance states that “No person who owns or has possession, custody or control of any
commercial vehicle measuring more than twenty feet in length or eight feet in height shall park or
leave standing such vehicle upon any street in a residential district or abutting any property or area
within a residential district, between the hours of 8:00 P.M. and 8:00 A.M. of the following day.”
However, in most cases the commercial vehicles do not exceed the allowable length and or height,
so the Sheriff’s Department is not able to issue a parking citation per section 9-25.030 of the
ordinance.
373
DISCUSSION:
Several surrounding cities have more restrictive ordinances that regulate the parking of
recreational vehicles, commercial trailers, and large commercial vehicles on streets. The following
are examples of cities that have adopted more restrictive ordinances:
City of Campbell ordinance 10.24.015 Use of Streets for Storage of Vehicles states that “It is
unlawful for any person who owns or has possession, custody or control of any vehicle, including
a boat or trailer, to park or leave such vehicle upon any street, alley, or public parking facility
for a period of seventy-two consecutive hours or more. For the purposes of this section, a vehicle
shall be considered to have been parked or left standing for seventy-two or more consecutive
hours if it has remained inoperable or has not been moved at least one mile during the seventy-
two-hour period. An inoperable vehicle is a vehicle that cannot be moved under its own power
or a vehicle, which cannot operate legally and safely on the highways of the state. The mileage
reflected on the odometer of the vehicle shall be presumed to be an accurate indication of the
distance that the vehicle has or has not been moved. Obstruction of the odometer of the vehicle
will result in a presumption that the vehicle has not been moved.”
City of Cupertino ordinance 11.28.030 Commercial Vehicles states “Commercial vehicles having
a manufacturer’s gross vehicle weight rating of ten thousand pounds or more shall not park or
stand on any street located within a residential zoning district and truck trailers shall not park or
stand upon any public street.”
City of Los Altos ordinance 14.74.010 Off Street Parking and Loading R-1 District Requirements
states “No commercial vehicle or trailer over a gross vehicle weight of six thousand (6,000)
pounds shall be parked, stored, or otherwise left unattended at any place within the R-1 District,
except while actually engaged in pickup or delivery activities, or during the course of the actual
construction, alteration, or repair of structures in the immediate proximity, or unless kept entirely
in an enclosed parking structure or behind a solid fence or wall not less than six feet in height.”
City of Morgan Hill’s ordinance 10.40.210 Parking Oversized Vehicles on Public Streets in
Residential Areas states “no person shall stop, stand or park an oversized vehicle on a public
street or highway located immediately adjacent to real property located in a residential
zone…except for the purpose of loading or unloading food, supplies, equipment or cargo or due
to a temporary and unplanned inoperability. Such exemption period shall not exceed ten
consecutive hours. For the purposes of this section, the term ‘oversized vehicle’ shall mean any
vehicle or combination of vehicles that exceeds twenty-two feet in length or seven feet in height,
exclusive of any projecting lights or devices allowed by the provisions of the California Vehicle
Code.”

SARATOGA CITY COUNCIL
MEETING DATE:September 7, 2022
DEPARTMENT:Community Development Department
PREPARED BY:Christopher Riordan, Senior Planner
SUBJECT:Contract with Lisa Wise Consulting, Inc.for Preparation of Mixed-Use /
Multi-Family Objective Design Standards
RECOMMENDED ACTION:
Authorize City Manager to execute an agreement with Lisa Wise Consulting, Inc. for the Mixed
Use / Multi-Family Objective Design Standards Project in an amount not to exceed $159,511.
BACKGROUND:
On July 6, 2022, the City Council authorized staff to submit the Draft 2023-2031 Housing Element
to the State Housing and Community Development Department (HCD) for its review.
The Draft Housing Element identified several non-vacant sites to be included within a proposed
rezoning program to allow for development potential consistent with Saratoga’s RHNA
requirements. This rezoning program will consist of the creation of three new mixed-use zoning
districts: Mixed Use” (MU), “Mixed Use High Density” (MU/HD), and “Mixed Use Very High
Density” (MU/VHD).
State housing law requires local jurisdictions to have clear and objective zoning standards and
streamlined review and approval processes for multifamily development to ensure that local
housing production goals are met. These objective standards include development regulations
such as setback and height limitations and can include design standards if these standards are
written to be objective rather than subjective.The intent of Objective Design Standards is to
provide applicants and developers with a clear understanding of the City’s expectations for mixed-
use and muti-family residential project design. An objective standard is one that is measurable,
quantifiable, easily defined, and enforceable.
In addition, on May 4, 2022 the City Council approved the FY 2022/23 Planning Commission
work plan which included the Mixed Use and Multifamily Objective Design Standards as one of
the priority work plan items.
375
Staff solicited bids from three planning consulting firms and received one proposal. Staff
recommends awarding a contract for the Mixed Use/Multi-Family Objective Design Standards
Project from Lisa Wise Consulting, Inc. in an amount not to exceed $159,511.
It is anticipated that the Mixed-Use / Multi-Family Objective Design Standards will be completed
and ready for Planning Commission and City Council approval in association with the final review
and adoption of the 2023-2031 Housing Element Update.
FISCAL IMPACT:
The costs to prepare the Mixed-Use / Multi-Family Objective Design Standards will be paid from
the General Plan Update Fund. These funds are collected from building permit fees that are set
aside to cover costs associated with updating the City’s General Plan.

Objective Design Standards
Draft Scope of Work
Prepared by Lisa Wise Consulting, Inc. (LWC)
August 11, 2022
This draft Scope of Work prepared for the City of Saratoga (“City”) describes a work plan for
preparation and adoption of Objective Design Standards required by State law to help
implement of the City’s 6th Cycle Housing Element. The Scope describes the work plan by
task and includes associated meetings and deliverables. All meetings are assumed to be
conducted online via a videoconferencing platform, unless otherwise noted.
SCOPE OF WORK
Task 1: Project Initiation and Analysis
A. Project Initiation Meeting, City Tour, and Working Meetings. LWC will meet with City
staff to discuss the goals and priorities for the Objective Design Standards Project
(“Project”); finalize the work program, timeline, and milestone; and clarify roles and
responsibilities. Following the meeting, City staff will lead the team on a virtual tour of
the City to evaluate existing conditions, such as the intensity, forms, and character, with
an emphasis on desired development outcomes and the opportunity sites identified in
the Housing Element. (See also Task 2.C. below.)
LWC will also conduct up to two additional meetings with City staff early in the project to
obtain their perspective on what is important from a design perspective to the
community. Following these meetings with City staff, LWC will prepare a comprehensive
summary of the feedback received.
B. Technical Analysis, Site Analysis, and Evaluation. LWC will prepare a technical
Analysis, Site Analysis and Evaluation that addresses the following:
• Applicable ordinances, plans, and policy documents including the Gateway Design
Guidelines, Village Design Guidelines and Single-Family Residential Design Review
Handbook focusing on the City’s opportunity sites for multi-family development.
• Projects in the “pipeline”, recent development projects, and proposals.
381
983 OSOS STREET, SAN LUIS OBISPO, CA 93401 | (805) 595 1345 | LISAWISECONSULTING.COM | 2
• An evaluation of the existing context and design characteristics, including
commonalities and differences, of the proposed housing opportunity site areas,
including Saratoga Avenue, Gateway North, Gateway South, Village East,
Prospect/Lawrence, Fellowship Plaza, Wardell, Allendale/Chester, Quito/Pollard,
and any additional areas as appropriate.
Prior to preparation of the Technical Analyses, Site Analysis and Evaluation, LWC will
prepare and submit to the City a data request for background material related to the
analyses and Code update.
C. Objective Design Standards Recommendations Memo. Based on the technical
analyses and City staff comments, LWC will prepare an Objective Design Standards
Recommendations Memo. The Memo will highlight General Plan and Housing Element
policy direction and present recommendations for the content and organization of the
Objective Design Standards, including an annotated Table of Contents. The memo will
also discuss how the material will be added or integrated into the existing Zoning Code.

Objective Design Standards Recommendations Memo (Task 1.C), Objective Design
Standards for the opportunity sites will be developed, i.e., the small sites as well
as the 10-acre opportunity sites. The Objective Design Standards will complement
the development regulations of the base district(s) and address:
o Site design. Topics will include, for example, access, parking access and design.
Building placement may be included if not sufficiently addressed in the base
zone development standards.
o Building massing and scale. Topics will include, for example, building
type/configuration, upper story step-backs, roof form, and adjacencies to
lower-intensity districts.
o Building design. Topics will include, for example, façade articulation, building
transparency, entry design, ground floor finish floor elevation, corner
treatment, window placement and design, and building materials.
These standards will satisfy the State’s requirements for Objective Design Standards
in accordance with SB330. LWC will also identify changes elsewhere in the Zoning
Code that may need to be addressed for consistency.
C. Assist City Staff and Urban Planning Partners, Inc. (UPP) with Zoning Standards.
LWC will provide technical assistance to City Staff and UPP who will be developing the
multi-family development standards for the City’s Zoning Code. This technical
assistance will be provided via on-line conference calls or emails and may involve
research and recommendations on how the Zoning Code may be updated. LWC will
provide up to 40 hours of technical support on the Zoning Code.

Subject support "Contract with Lisa Wise Consulting" agenda item
Comments I support item 2.4 of the Agenda 09/07 "Contract with Lisa Wise
Consulting". When I thought about how to harmonize the
requirements for increasing density and the rural character of
Saratoga, one of the few options that I liked was Form Based
Codes. And I looked at the work of Lisa Wise Consulting, they do
exactly that.
