first Community Meeting was held on July 28, 2004 and was very well attended
by the KMP neighborhood residents. It was clear from the input received from the
community that inclusion of flat grass for soccer, a restroom, and a parking lot
were not the neighborhood's vision of how the park should be developed.
Director Cherbone noted that on August 4,2004 the Council directed staff to
suspend the project so that additional research and options for flat grass at other
locations in the City could be explored. Subsequently, a letter indicating Council's
direction was mailed to the KMP neighborhood residents on August 6th.

other cities. Mr. Mighdoll stated that KMP is a community park, paid for by
Saratoga resident's taxes. Mr. Mighdoll stated that everyone should be able to use
KMP.
Mayor King thanked the speakers.
Referring to the Council KMP AdHoc Committee, Vice Mayor Kline stated that he
is dedicated to be a neutral as possible - his children do not play soccer and he
doesn't live near KMP. Vice Mayor Kline stated that the intention of tonight's
agenda item was not to discuss the merits for or against soccer fields at KMP, the
item placed on the agenda tonight was to discuss the timeline to begin the process
to develop the park.
In regards to the Council Ad Hoc, Vice Mayor Kline noted that the Ad Hoc should
not be setting policy or driving issues, it should be setting up the framework for
the process. The AdHoc should try and negotiate a solution in which everyone is
happy. Vice Mayor Kline suggested that both sides choose a leader to represent
them in the process. Vice Mayro Kline noted that the Ad Hoc should work through
the summer with staff and put together the process to begin on September 15, 2005
and put together 20-25 people to form a committee and discuss the issues.

Councilmembers have strong opinions on the use ofKMP.

COMMITTEE TO SAVE THE NORTH CAMPUS
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Accept report and direct staff accordingly.
John Cherbone, Public Works Director, presented staff report.
Director Cherbone stated that at the May 18, 2005 City Council meeting, Jack
Mallory Chairman ofthe Citizen's Committee to Save the North Campus
requested that the City delay the sale of City owned property locate at 19848
Prospect Road for one year. Because the request came under oral communications
the City Council was not able to discuss the request in any detail. City Council
directed staff to agendize the issue for the next meeting on June 1 st for discussion.
Jack Mallory noted that he was the Chair for the Citizen Committee to Save the
North Campus. Mr. Mallory stated that when the City purchased the property, the
Council told Grace Methodist them that the property would be used for public
uses. Mr. Mallory read the City's vision statement and stated that saving the North
Campus fits the vision of Saratoga.
Mr. Mallory stated that the Committee has 25 members and they have received in
pledges and real money approximately $50,000. Mr. Mallory stated that they also
received a donation of $5,000 worth of adverting. Mr. Mallory pointed out the
Committee would be holding an "Open House" at the North Campus on June 12,
2005. Mr. Mallory explained to the Council that achieving their goal would take
time and requested that the City wait until June 30, 2006 to sell the property. Mr.
Mallory also requested that they be allowed to erect a sign on the property
signifying that it is was the North Campus.
Mr. Mallory stated that if the City agrees to wait one year to sell the property the
Committee promises to:
1. Pay for the cost of the maintenance of the property
2. Continue fundraising with the goal to raise $6.5 million
Aki Okuno noted that she was a 47 year resident of Saratoga. Ms. Okuno stated
that she was a member of Grace Methodist Church when the City purchases the
property. Ms. Okuno stated that the Church members were under the impression
that the City would use the property for public uses.
Mary Smith stated that after listening to the comments regarding KMP she thinks
more people could utilize the property - not just the seniors.
11
Councilmember Streit stated that he supports agendizing KMP for discussion on
September 15, 2005. Councilmember Streit suggested that the AdHoc and Task
Force work throughout the summer and the Council hold special meetings strictly
to discuss KMP in September of October. Councilmember Streit stated that he
feels that the Council owes it to the entire city, based on the emailsreceived.to
find out what the whole city wants not just what the neighbors around the park
want.
Councilmember Kao thanked everyone for attending tonight's meeting and
volunteered to replace Councilmember Streit on the Council AdHoc.
Councilmember Kao stated that she doesn't have children who play soccer and can
listen to both sides with an open mind.
Councilmember Koa reiterated that fact that the Council does not meet behind
closed doors to discuss issues - it would be in violation of the Brown Act.
Councilmember Waltonsmith stated she feels October is a little late to start the
process. Councilmember Waltonsmith stated that the North Campus has flat grass
that could be utilized for organized sports, but unfortunately the Council has
decided to sell it, which will put more pressure on the remaining flat grass in the
City. Councilmember Waltonsmith stated that the Ad Hoc should be given a
chance to develop a process and some options.
Mayor King stated that she is offended that citizens think the Council is making
decisions behind closed doors. Mayor King stated that she feels the entire process
should be open to the public and the AdHoc and Task Force should be cancelled.
Mayor King stated that soccer is not the only sport that needs flat grass.
Vice Mayor Kline stated that all meetings are open to the public, the issue is what
is functional and can we have a nice discussion at a City Council meeting. Vice
Mayor Kline stated that it's impossible to do it that way. Functionally, you need to
be able to roll up your sleeves and look at plans and find compromise. Vice Mayor
Kline noted that he would like to offer a compromise and stated that all Ad Hoc
minutes and reports be posted to the website so everyone who has an interest can
follow the process alone.
Councilmember Streit stated that the KMP issue has two huge differences of
opinions on the development of the park. The Council needs to make a decision
by the first meeting in December one way or another. Councilmember Streit stated
he is willing to give the AdHoc and the Task Force a chance to come up with a
compromise or a solution.
Councilmember Waltonsmith stated that she agrees with Councilmember Streit.

space, Mayor King stated that the City has a lot of open space and provided

Mayor King stated in order to maintain the City's streets and roads; the property
on Prospect Road needs to be sold and move forward with the original plan.
Mayor King asked City Attorney Taylor if the Council would need to take the
highest bid when the property is put on the market.
City Attorney Taylor responded that if it is in the best interest of the community-
the Council could take the lowest bid.
A discussion took place to the fact that the property located 19848 Prospect Road
has never officially been named the "North Campus".
Consensus of the City Council to move forward with the sale ofthe property.
7. CITY'S 50TH ANNIVERSARY
STAFF RECOMMENDATION:
Accept report and direct staff accordingly.
Joan Pisani, Recreation Director, presented staff report.
Director Pisani explained that the City was incorporated on October 22, 1956, and
will be celebrating its 50th anniversary in 2006. If the City intends to
commemorate this occasion, however big or small, planning needs to begin soon.
Director Pisani explained the City's 25th anniversary celebration.
Director Pisani explained that ideally, the celebration should be structured so it is
an all-volunteer effort with minimal City staff involvement. Director Pisani stated
that staff recommends appointing a Chairperson and then recruit people to be on a
steering committee. Once the committee is formed they could develop a
celebration plan with a list of proposed programs and special events. After a
tentative schedule is established, community service groups and organization
could be recruited to take responsibility for individual events.
Director Pisani explained stated that if a group agrees to sponsor an event perhaps
they would also fund it.
Director Pisani recommended that once the celebration plan is established, a
budget should be developed.
Director Pisani noted that she has talked to several people who have expressed
interest in helping with the 50th Anniversary commemoration and noted that she
would be willing to get this event off the ground and provide minimal support
throughout the coming year.

Stan Bogosian stated that he was on the Council when the property was purchased.
Mr. Bogosian stated that he supports selling the property and putting the money
back into the City's General Fund. Mr. Bogosian noted that the original reason for
purchasing the property was to move the Senior Center there and relocate the
Sheriffs Office at the current Senior Center facility. Unfortunately,
Councilmember Bogosian stated that it did not work out as planned. Mr. Bogosian
stated that when the property was purchased there was not a Council consensus of
the use.
Sue Mallory noted that she has lived in Saratoga for 38 years. Mrs. Mallory urged
the Council to give the Committee a chance to raise the funds to save the property.
Francis Stutzman recalled the time when he was on the City Council and was
faced with tuff decisions. Mr. Stutzman stated that the City told the Church that
the property would be used for public purposes.
Carol Mauldin noted that she has been a resident in Saratoga for 30 years. Ms.
Maudlin stated that ifthe City sells the North Campus the Council would be
selling out the community.
Jeff Schwartz noted that he supports keeping the North Campus for one year and
suggested that the City conduct a survey to find out with where the community is
on this issue.
Mayor King thanked the speakers.
Councihnember Waltonsmith stated that she supports Mr. Mallory's proposal.
Councilmember Kao stated that she supports Mr. Mallory's proposal.
Councilmember Streit stated that he supports going forward with the sale of the
property. Councilmember Streit briefly reminded everyone the original intent
when the property was purchased. Councilmember Streit stated that the City
bought the property free and clear without any obligation to use as a public
facility.
Councilmember Streit stated that he feels the money should go back into the
General Fund to continue to supports the infrastructure and public safety contract.
Vice Mayor Kline stated that he has read the minutes from the City Council
meeting when the property was purchased and stated that it was rushed through the
process. Vice Mayor Kline pointed out that the City did not inspect the property
properly before it was purchased and learned only after that the property would
cost a lot of money to remodel in order to utilize it. Vice Mayor Kline stated that
he supports the sale of the property to go forward. Vice Mayor Kline noted that if
someone offered the senior $4.5 million dollars to buy the property he would
consider it.
Mayor King noted that she went through the appraisal and noted that the three
properties that the appraiser compared the church property to did not make sense.
You can't compare church property to commercial property.

Director Cherbone stated that a direct mailing to nearby residents of the proposed
trail was sent notifying them of both the Council Site Visit and tonight's
subsequent City Council meeting.
Referring to the proposed parking lots, Vice Mayor Kline asked who suggested
them because they weren't in the original plan.
Director Cherbone responded that the Task Force suggested the parking lots.
Vice Mayor Kline asked if staff has consulted with PG&E to see if the trail could
go under the towers instead of jutting out around them.
Director Cherbone responded that he hasn't consulted PG&E yet, but feels that
they would probably be opposed to the trail going under the towers for safety
reasons.
Mayor King asked why the trail would be made from decomposed granite.
Director Cherbone explained that decomposed granite looks more natural and still
meets VTA's requirements as a "multi use all weather trail".
Mayor King asked ifVT A would pay for the Master Plan even if the City decided
not to go forward with construction.
Director Cherbone responded yes.
Councilmember Waltonsmith stated that some residents were concerned that the
City was wasting money by developing trails in segments.
Director Cherbone responded that the City has a Trails Master Plan. Director
Cherbone noted that currently there are several gaps throughout the City.
Mayor King noted that there were several people who wanted to speak on this
item.
Dr. Bill Johnson commented that he feels this project consists of two trails that go
nowhere. Dr. Johnson stated that the proposed length of the trail is inappropriate
for cyclist. Dr. Johnson pointed out that the proposed plan has no provisions for
emergencies. Dr. Johnson stated that he feels that this project is a misuse ofVTA
funds.
Mike Gilbert thanked the City Council and the Task Force for their time and effort
on this project. Mr. Gilbert stated that the trail is already heavily used and any
improvements would be welcomed. Mr. Gilbert pointed out that the proposed trail
would be good for the elderly and disabled. Mr. Gilbert stated that he supports the
proposed project.
Robert McBride asked if the changes to the plan have been submitted to and
approved by the VT A.
Eric Bracher requested that the proj ect be terminated.

Director Cherbone noted that the location of the trail within the PG&E right-of-
way was constrained by two factors: 1) a requirement that the trail be a minimum
of25 feet from the center of the railroad tracks, and 2) there was not sufficient
clearance between the PG&E towers and the common PG&E/UPRR right-of-way
line for a 12 foot wide duel use trail. The constraint of the PG&E towers requires
that the bicycle portion of the path (8 feet wide) be routed around the towers.
Director Cherbone explained that the continuity of the trail was also limited by two
right-of-way constraints: 1) there are two adjacent private properties near Cox
Avenue where PG&E does not have right-of-way, and 2) PG&E doe not have
right-of-way across the property owned by San Jose Water Property, which is
located adjacent to the Cox Avenue County Fire Station. These right-of -way
constraints split the trail into two usable segments.
Director Cherbone noted that on March 3, 2004 the City Council directed staff to
form a task force to explore the feasibility of improving the trail along the PG&E
right-of-way and to develop a master plan. In addition, staff was directed to hire a
design consultant to facilitate the process. Subsequently, at the June 2, 2004 City
Council meeting, Council approved a professional services agreement with AN
West to facilitate the master plan phase ofthe project.
Director Cherbone explained in detail the Draft Master Plan for the De Anza Trail.
Director Cherbone noted that the current construction costs estimate is $1,895,317,
which includes a $100,000 line item for screening and other mitigation necessary
for adjacent residents. The estimate for yearly maintenance is estimated at
$30,138 per year.
Director Cherbone pointed out that a series of Task Force and Community
Meetings were held. Many comments and concerns were raised at the various
meetings with additional comments received via email and direct mail. The main
concerns raised from the public, include, but not limited to:
. Security Issues
. Privacy
. Potential Decline in Property Values
. Construction and Maintenance Costs
Director Cherbone explained that the final steps to complete Phase I is to
incorporate City eouncil comments into the Master Plan and to complete the
Enviromnental Document in order to begin the required 20-day public comment
period. Phase I is scheduled to conclude in September with City Council voting
on the Final Master Plan and Enviromnental Document, and making the
determination whether to move forward with Phase 2-Design and Construction.

stated that if the trail were developed it would bring more outside people to
Saratoga.

concentrating on the trail. Mr. Cooper stated the he supports the proposed proj ect.

been any problems. Ms. Poppenhagen supported making the trail safer.

recommend that the Council withdraw the project from VTA. Mr. Bigley stated
that developing the trail would increase crime, loitering, and traffic.
Jeanne Carter noted that she has mixed feelings in regards to the proposed project.
Ms. Carter stated her concern is how the Sheriffs Office would patrol the trail.
Ms. Cater noted that she likes the decomposed granite-it would reduce the noise.
Francis Killbrew noted that she supported the proposed plan if it clean up the trail,
improved the surface to make it safer, and was patrolled regularly by the Sheriffs
Office. Ms. Killbrew stated that she doesn't know if developing the trail would
increase or decrease traffic in her neighborhood.
Citizen Ray commented on the PG&E towers and stated that open space needs to
be preserved.
Mayor King thanked everyone for their comments.

either finish Phase I, which is the feasibility study and is 80% complete, or
discontinue the project.
7
Jim Stallman stated that he currently enjoys using this corridor and supports the
proposed project.
Anne Sanquini noted that supports the proposed project.
Gilbert Johnson asked why the second trail segment was still on the Master Plan
documents. Mr. Johnson stated that he feels the City left it on so the trail would
look more complete.
Anne Ng stated that she is a Cupertino resident and a trail enthusiast. Ms. Ng
stated that this afternoon she attended the Site Visit and once the neighbors found
out she wasn't a Saratoga resident they ordered her to leave. Ms. Ng encouraged
the City eouncil to move forward with this project, which in the future could
possibly link up with other trails.
Cecilia Bulich noted that she is against this project and requested that the Council
leave the trail as is. Ms. Bulich stated that the City should wait to develop the
trail when the UPRR goes away.
Nikola Miljevich noted that his family has been in Saratoga for over five
generation and during that time they have watched Saratoga change - some good
changes and some bad. Mr. Miljevich asked who was going to maintain the trail
and where would the money come from.
Bill Elhoff noted that he lived close to Congress Springs Park and his home has
been vandalized several times. Mr. Elhoff stated that the trail is unsafe near the
PG&E towers because of the EMF.
Richard Brown stated that the trail should be left as is and noted that he feels it is a
misuse of funds.
Jeffrey Pugh stated that he is astounded that anyone on the City Council could
support this project especially in light of recent budget cuts.
Mike Nichimoto stated that they recently moved to their home and noted that their
backyard directly abuts the trail. Mr. Nichimoto stated that ifthe proposed project
moves forward the noise on the trail would increase. Mr. Nichimoto stated that he
feels the cost of the project is too high and expressed his concerns regarding the
safety of a trail near a railroad track.
Julie Nichimoto noted that if the trail is developed anyone who uses it would be
able to look into their kitchen.
Sally O'Hearn stated she is opposed to the project.
Rita Witmer recapped previous City Council comments regarding this project.
Ms. Witmer stated that the Council at one point agreed that if the neighborhood
opposed the project - they would withdraw the application from VTA.
6
John Feemster noted that he was representing SASCC. Mr. Feemster stated that
they would gladly move to the property located at 19848 Prospect Road. Mr.

City Hall and be considered in the discussions regarding the use of proceeds from
the sale.

formally known as "Citizens to Save the North Campus". Mr. Grabowy requested

used for community purposes. .
Jack Mallory thanked the Council for their consideration on this item.
Councilmember Streit stated that when he was Mayor and the City purchased the
property the public said the City should have never purchased the property and
now the public is saying the Council shouldn't sell the property. Councilmember
Streit stated that he doesn't want to continue discussing this issue and would not
support another Ad Hoc Committee.
Vice Mayor Kline stated that he concurred with Councilmember Streit. Vice
Mayor Kline stated that if someone wants to pay a fair price for the property he'd
sell it.
Councilmember Kao noted that she would like to work with the citizens to find a
way to purchase the property.
Mayor King briefly highlighted the original intent of the property and noted that if
a group approached the City 36 months ago to purchase the property the City
would have saved over $70,000 on the Sheriffs Office departure from the City.
Mayor King stated that the City doesn't have the funds to keep the property and
turn it into a community center- money needs to be spend on roads and
infrastructure. Mayor King stated that if Councilmembers Kao and Waltonsmith
want to work with the residents on their own time they are free to do so-without
staff support.
Consensus of the City Council that an Ad Hoc Committee would not be formed to
explore uses ofthe property located at 19848 Prospect Road.

RECOMMENDED ACTION
That the City Council accepts the monthly Treasurer's Report.
REPORT SUMMARY
California government code section 41004 requires that the City Treasurer (the Municipal Code
of the City of Saratoga, Article 2-20, Section 2-20.035, designates the City Manager as the City
Treasurer) submit to the City Clerk and the legislative body a written report and accounting of all
receipts, disbursements, and fund balances.
41004. Regularly, at least once each month, the city treasurer shall submit to the city
clerk a written report and accounting of all receipts, disbursements, and fund balances.
He shall file a copy with the legislative body.
Additionally with the passage of Chapter 687, Statutes of 2000 (AB 943 Dutra), effective
January I, 200 I cities are now required to forward copies of their second and fourth quarter
calendar year investment portfolio reports to the California Debt and Investment Advisory
Commission (CDlAC) within 60 days.
The CDlAC will use the report as an additional opportunity to examme public investment
practices in a more consistent basis than before.
Cities, such as the City of Saratoga, that are 100 percent invested in the Local Agency Investment
Fund (LAIF) are exempt from the new investment portfolio reporting requirements and are only
required to send a letter to CDlAC indicating the total and composition of their investments.
This Treasurer's Report will satisfy our reporting requirement to the CDIAC.
The following pages in the attachment provide various financial data and analysis 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
month of 1977 to present.

, AICP, Com. Dev. Dir. DEPT HEAD:
RECOMMENDED ACTIONS:
Authorize the City Manager to execute the agreement with Deborah Ungo-McCormick for planning
and development services.
REPORT SUMMARY:
January 5,2005 the City Council approved a contract with Deborah Ungo-McCormick to fill in for
the vacant Associate Planner position. Since Deborah started there has been a steady increase in
planning applications and the vacancy of a second Associate Planner position. Deborah has
successfully processed 11 projects and currently has 15 active applications. Both of the vacant
planning positions have been filled, with the second new planner starting July 18th. Staff would like
to maintain Deborah as a contract planner so she can continue to process her existing projects. It
also will provide staff with some flexibility as the new planners are trained and staff begins work on
updating the General Plan and Zoning Ordinance.
FISCAL IMPACTS:
The budget for this fiscal year already includes $54,000 for contract planning services; therefore no
transfer of funds is required. Deborah operates in a cost recovery mode; therefore there is no
negative impact to the budget.
CONSEQUENCES OF NOT FOLLOWING RECOMMENDED ACTION(S):
Without a contract planner, the City will have difficulty completing essential planning and
development functions in a timely manner.
ALTERNATIVE ACTIONS:
Select another option to meet City's needs.
FOLLOW UP ACTIONS:
Execute the contract agreement.

SUBJECT: Acceptance of Settlement and Mutual Release Agreement with the Silicon
Valley Animal Control Authority
RECOMMENDED ACTIONS:
Authorize execution of the Settlement and Mutual Release Agreement with the Silicon Valley
Animal Control Authority.
REPORT SUMMARY:
In 2001, the City of Saratoga formed a Joint Powers Authority (JPA) with six other cities: Los
Gatos, Santa Clara, Campbell, Monte Sereno, Sunnyvale, Cupertino. Over the course of the
partnership, escalating costs associated with service delivery and shelter construction prompted
Snnnyvale to withdraw in 2003, and Cupertino, Los Gatos and Saratoga to withdraw in 2004.
The agreement provisions specified that should a city withdraw from the JP A, it would receive a
portion ofSV ACA's fund balance. Sunnyvale received it's settlement in 2004. The amount due
to Saratoga and the other two cities that withdrew in 2004, could not be determined until
SV ACA's year end financial documents had been completed and audited.
SV ACA submitted to Los Gatos, Cupertino and Saratoga an Independent Auditor's Report and a
report entitled "Calculation of Amounts to the Distributed to Members Withdrawing from
Silicon Valley Animal Control Authority at June 30, 2004" (copies attached). Maze &
Associates, a reputable firm that represents approximately 100 public agencies, prepared both
documents. The Independent Auditor's Report provides an unqualified opinion ofthe financial
information.
Saratoga's portion to be returned is $44,132. The amount is based on the total funds each agency
contributed over the life of the JPA. Cupertino made the decision to withdraw prior to the
adoption of an amendment to the JP A that affected the amount of funding directed to reserves so
the calculation used for them was different than the one used for Los Gatos and Saratoga.
Staff has reviewed the financial documents and the agreement, and recommends acceptance of
the settlement amount and the execution of the agreement.
2. General Release. The Parties desire to provide for a final and binding resolution
of all outstanding issues and potential claims related to the JP A, the Animal Control Services and
the relationship between SV ACA and the City (hereinafter collectively referred to as "JP A
Matters"). This mutual agreement to release all claims, whether known or unknown, is a
material inducement to both Parties to enter into this Agreement. Both SV ACA and the City
agree that there IS adequate consideratiun fUl all uftlu, PlUUli,,,,, IGkases;-eo,cnants and
obligations set forth in this Agreement. Accordingly, each Party hereby releases and forever
discharges the other Party, its officers, directors, employees, attorneys, agents, and any and all
other persons or entities who have acted on its behalf, from any and all claims, demands,
warranties, actions, causes of action, obligations, liens, agreements, loss, damages, cost,
expenses and any liabilities of any nature whatsoever, whether or not now known, anticipated,
suspected or claimed, which arise out of, are based upon, or are in any way connected to JP A
Matters, save and except the obligations set forth in this Agreement.
3. Waiver of California Civil Code Section 1542. The Parties acknowledge that
there is a risk that, subsequent to the date of this Agreement, they may incur, suffer or sustain
injury, loss, damage, costs, attorneys' fees, expenses, or any ofthese, which are in some way
caused by and/or connected to JP A Matters, and which are unknown and unanticipated at the
time this Agreement is sigued, and which are not presently capable of being ascertained. It is
nevertheless expressly understood and agreed by the Parties that by entering into this Agreement,
they expressly waive all rights under Section 1542 of the Civil Code of California which arise
out of, are based upon, or are in any way connected to JP A Matters. Said section provides:
A GENERAL RELEASE DOES NOT EXTEND TO CLAIMS
WHICH THE CREDITOR DOES NOT KNOW OR
SUSPECT TO EXIST IN HIS FAVOR AT THE TIME OF
EXECUTING THE RELEASE, WHICH IF KNOWN BY
HIM MUST HAVE MATERIALLY AFFECTED HIS
SETTLEMENT WITH THE DEBTORS.

INDEPENDENT AUDITOR'S REPORT
Honorable Members of the Board of Directors of
Silicon Valley Animal Control Authority
Santa Clara, California
We have audited the financial statements of the Silicon Valley Animal Control Authority, as of and for the
year ended June 30, 2004, as listed in the Table of Contents. These basic financial statements are the
responsibility of the Authority's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial
statements based on our audit.
We conducted our audit in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards in the United States of
America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about
whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test
basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes
assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as
evalnating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable
basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the basic financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the
financial position of the Silicon Valley Animal Control Authority as ofJune 30, 2004 and the changes in the
financial position and cash flows thereof and the budgetary comparisons listed as part of the basic financial
statements for the year then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United
States of America.
The basic financial statements referred to above follow the requirements of the Government Accounting
Standards Board's Statement No. 34, Basic Financial Statements-and Management's Discussion and
Analysis{or State and Local Governments, No. 36, Recipient Reporting for Certain Non-exchange
Revenues, an Amendment of GASB Statement No. 33, No. 37, Basic Financial Statements-and
Management's Discussion and Analysis-for State and Local Governments; Omnibus, and No.3 8, Certain
Financial Statement Note Disclosures, as discussed in Note 1 to the Basic Financial Statements.
Management's Discussion and Analysis is not a required part of the basic financial statements but is
supplementary information required by the Governmental Accounting Standards Board. We have applied
certain limited procedures, which consisted principally of inquiries of management regarding the methods of
measurement and presentation of the required supplementary infonnation. However, we did not audit the
information and express no opinion on it.

MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION A D ANALYSIS
Silicon Valley Animal Control Authority has issued the financial reports for fiscal year
ending June 30, 2004 based on th provisions of the Government Accounting Standards
Board Statement 34, "Basic Fin ncial Statement and Management's Discussion &
Analysis-for State and Local Go rnments," (GASB 34). One of the most significant
requirements of GASB 34 is for go emment entities to prepare financial reports using the
full accrual basis of accounting. Si ce Silicon Valley Animal Control Authority has always
been using this method of accounti g, changes in its financial reports are primarily in the
format of presentation.
GASB 34 requires Silicon Valley
financial activities in the fiscal y
accompanying financial statements.
nimal Control Authority to provide an overview of
ar and it should be read in conjunction with the
OVERVIEW OF BASIC FINANCIA STATEMENTS
The Basic Financial Statements req ired under GASB 34 include:
(1) Statement of Net Assets-pr vides information about the financial position of Silicon
Valley Animal Control Auth rity, including assets, liabilities and net assets. The
difference between this sta ment and the traditional Balance Sheet is that net
assets (fund equity) are sh wn as the difference between total assets and total
liabilities.
(2) Statement of Activities-pres nts revenues, expenses and changes in net assets for
the fiscal year. It differs with the traditional Statement of Revenues and Expenses in
that revenues and expen es ditectly attributable to operating programs are
presented separately from in estment income and financing costs.
(3) Statement of Cash Flows provides itemized categories of cash flows. This
statement differs from the t aditional Statement of Cash Flows in that it presents
itemized categories of cash i flows and out flows instead of computing the net cash
flows from operation by ba king out non-cash revenues and expenses from net
operating income. In addi ion, cash flows related to investments and financing
activities are presented sepa ately.
FISCAL YEAR 2004 FINANCIAL IGHLlGHTS
Silicon Valley Animal Control Auth rity's financial highlights for the fiscal year include the
following:
. Total assets at June 30, 2004 were $1.77 million. At June 30, 2003, total assets
were $1.10 million. ,
. Total operating revenues were $1.55 million in FY 2004, while total operating
expenses were $1.55 million.
. Total non-operating revenues, including contributions to the Thomas Road project,
were $660 thousand.
. Total net assets increased $453 thousand in FY 2004 to a new total of $1.24 million
at June 3D, 2004.

,____.'" .______________~uu
Our audit was conducted for the purpose of forming opinions on the financial statements that collectively
comprise the basic financial statements. The supplemental section listed in the Table of Contents is
presented for purposes of additional analysis and is not a required part of the basic financial statements.
This information has been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audit of the basic financial
statements and, in our opinion, is fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial
statements taken as a whole.

SILICON V ALLEY ANIMAL CONTROL AUTHORITY
STATEMENT OF NET ASSETS
AND STATEMENT OF ACTnnTffiS
The purpose of the Statement of Net Assets and the Statement of Activities is to summarize SV ACA's
financial activities and financial position. They are prepared on the same basis as is used by most
businesses, which means they include all the SV ACA's assets and all its liabilities, as well as all its
revenues and expenses. This is known as the full accrual basis-the effect of all SV ACA's transactions
is taken into account, regardless of whether or when cash changes hands.
The Statement of Net Assets reports the difference between SVACA's total assets and SVACA's total
liabilities, including all SV ACA's capital assets and all its long-term debt. The Statement of Net Assets
presents similar information to the old balance sheet format, but presents it in a way that focuses the
reader on the composition ofSV ACA's net assets, by subtracting total liabilities from total assets.
The Statement of Activities reports increases and decreases in SV ACA's net assets. It is also prepared
on the full accrual basis, which means it includes all SV ACA's revenues and all its expenses, regardless
of when cash changes hands.
These financial statements along with the fund financial statements and footnotes are called Basic
Financial Statements.

. Professional services expenses were $156 thousand at June 30, 2003 and $217
thousand at June 30, 2004. The $61 thousand increased expenses included legal
settlements.
CLAIMS SETTLEMENT AND RESERVES FOR CLAIMS
Silicon Valley Animal Control Authority had no claims as of June 30, 2004.
INVESTMENT ACTIVITIES
As required by GASB, Silicon Valley Animal Control Authority reports its investments at fair.
value. At June 30, 2004, Silicon Valley Animal Control Authority had $651,194.49 invested
in the Local Agency Investment Fund (LAIF). LAIF is regulated by California Government
Code Section 16429 under the oversight of the Treasurer of the State of California.
MAJOR PROGRAM INITIATIVES AND ECONOMIC OUTLOOK
Overall, 2003-04 w~s somewhat tumultuous as SVACA again experienced a year of
ttansition and change. Cupertino, Los Gatos and Saratoga elected to withdraw from the
agency effective July 1, 2004. In 2004-05 SVACA will be a three member agency
composed of Campbell, Monte Sereno and Santa Clara. In February, a fire caused SVACA
to be homeless for a spell. Also in February, SVACA experienced a change in leadership.
All the while SVACA continued to deliver high quality service. Some of the highlights of the
year follow.
The Board of Directors approved a withdrawal reimbursement amount of $254,414 to be
distributed to the City of Sunnyvale. Three more cities withdrew from SVACA in 2003-04
and additional reimbursements totaling $214,026 will be distributed in 2004-05.
The Animal Licensing Program continued to improve as revenues for the licensing program
increased almost 6% in FY 2003-2004 over the prior year. SVACA will attempt to increase
the license compliance rate in the member cities through increased outreach, education
and enforcement.
Lastly, the Board of Directors decided to move forward with the purchase of a building that
will be retrofit into an animal shelter. The shelter design will be completed in 2004-05 with
the hopes of breaking ground in July 2005. The Thomas Road property was identified late
in the fiscal year and is expected to be purchased early in fiscal 2004-5.

SILICON VALLEY ANIMAL CONTROL AUTHORITY
BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
I NOTE 1 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
A. General
Silicon Valley Animal Control Authority, (the Authority) established in July, 2000, is a Joint
Powers Agency formed by the Cities of Campbell, Cupertino, Monte Sereno, Santa Clara, Saratoga
and Sunnyvale and the Town of Los Gatos to provide animal services within the member Cities'
limits.
The mission of the Authority is to ensure the well being-of both animals and residents of our
communities by delivering high-quality, responsive and cost-effective animal control services. Our
mission is accomplished by enforcing animal control laws, promoting responsible pet ownership
through outreach and education, and providing compassionate service to animals and their owners.
The Authority signed an agreement effective July 1,2001 with the Humane Society of Santa Clara
Valley (Humane Society), which requires the Humane Society to provide facilities, personnel,
shelter and animal services. The Humane Society is also required to insure the Authority against
automobile, workers compensation and general liability losses. The Humane Society is paid
monthly; the fees are based on a "per animal basis" and re-adjusted every 6 months. The contract
with the Humane Society has been extended through fiscal year 2005-2006.
During fiscal year 2004, the Authority was govemed by a Board of Directors consisting of two
representatives from the City of Santa Clara and one representative each from the Cities of
Campbell, Cupertino, Monte Sereno, Saratoga, and the Town of Los Gatos. (See Note 4).
The following is a summary of significant accounting policies of the Authority, which conform with
generally accepted accounting principles applicable to governments.
B. Basis of Presentation

BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
I NOTE 2 - CASH AND INVESTMENTS I
Cash and investments are recorded at fair market value. The Authority's cash and investments were
composed of cash in banks and the California Local Agency Investment Fund each of which is
described below.
A. Casll in Banks
Cash in banks is entirely insured or collateralized by the institution holding the deposit. California
law requires banks and savings and loan instltuhons to pledge government securltles WIth a market
value of] ] 0% of the deposit or first trust deed mortgage notes with a value of ] 50% of the deposit
as collateral for all municipal deposits. This collateral is considered to be held in the Authority's
name and places the Authority ahead of general creditors of the institution. The Authority has
waived collateral requirements for the portion of deposits covered by federal deposit insurance.
Cash in banks is entirely insured (Category]) or collateralized by the institution holding the
deposit (Category 2), as discussed above.
The carrying amount of the Authority's cash deposits was $937,739 at June 30, 2004. Bank
balances before reconciling items were $943,201, of which $100,000 was insured (Category]) and
$843,201 was collateralized (category 2) as discussed above.
B. Autllorized Investments
The California Government Code and the Authority's investment policy allow the Authority to
invest only in the State of California Local Agency Investment Fund (LAlF). LAlF is regulated by
California Government Code Section ] 6429 under the oversight of the Treasurer of the State of
California. The balance available for withdrawal is based on the accounting records maintained by
LAIF, which are recorded on an amortized cost basis. Included in LAlF's investment portfolio are
collateralized mortgage obligation, mortgage-backed securities, other asset-backed securities, loans
to certain state funds, and floating rate securities issued by federal agencies, government-sponsored
enterprises, and corporations.
The Authority does not enter into repurchase or reverse repurchase agreements. The Authority's
practice is to limit its investments to the State of California Local Agency Investment Fund and at
June 30, 2004 the Authority had $65],194 invested in the LAlF Pool.
I NOTE 3 - CAPITAL ASSETS
Capital assets are recorded at cost and depreciated over their estimated useful lives. The purpose of
depreciation is to spread the cost of fixed assets over the life of these assets. The amount charged to
depreciation expense each year represents that year's pro rata share.ofthe cost of fixed assets.
Depreciation of all capital assets is charged as an expense against operations each year and the total
amount of depreciation taken over the years, called accumulated depreciation, is reported on the
balance sheet as a reduction in the book value of the fixed assets.

[NOTE 1 _ SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (Continued)
D.
Basis of Accounting
Basis of accounting refers to when revenues and expenses are recognized. The Authority is
accounted for using the accrual basis of accounting, under which revenues are recognized when
they are earned and expenses are recognized when they are incurred. The Authority follows
Financial Accounting Standards Board Statements issued before November 30, 1989 which do not
conflict with Governmental Accounting Boards Statements.
E. Risk Management
The Authority is a member of the Special Districts Risk Management Association (SDRMA), a
joint powers authority which provides annual general liability and physical damage coverage up to
$10,000,000 in the aggregate. The Authority has a $500 deductible for general liability claims and
has a $1,000 deductible for physical damage claims.
SDRMA is governed by a board consisting of representatives from member municipalities. The
board controls the operations of SDRMA, including selection of management and approval of
operating budgets, independent of any influence by member municipalities beyond their
representation on the Board.
The Authority's premiums are based upon the following factors: claims history, total payroll, the
Authority's exposure, the results of an on-site underwriting inspection, total insurable values, and
employee classification ratings. Actual surpluses or losses are shared according to a fonnula
developed from overall loss costs and spread to member entities on a percentage basis after a
retrospective rating which generally occurs in the third year after the completion of the program
year.
The Authority also has workers' compensation insurance with Special Districts Workers
Compensation Authority (SDWCA) which covers workers' compensation and employers' liability
insurance commercially up to statutory limit and $10,000,000 respectively. The Authority has no
self-insured retention for workers' compensation claims.
During fiscal year 2004 the amount of claims paid and expensed was nil.
F. Accrued Compensated Absences
The liability for accrued compensated absences is recorded as an expense when vacation is earned.
Accumulated vacation is computed using current employee accumulated vacation hours at current
pay rates. Sick leave does not vest and is not accrued.

[NOTE 5 - PENSION PLAN
A. CALPERS Miscellaneous Employee Plan
On July 1, 2002 the Authority joined the California Public Employees Retirement System
(CALPERS), an agent multiple-employer public employee retirement system which acts as a
common investment and administrative agent for participating member employers.
Substantially all of the Authority's permanent, probationary and part-time employees are eligible to
participate in pension plans offered by California Public Employees Retirement System
(CALPERS) an agent multiple employer defined benefit pension plan which acts as a common
investment and administrative agent for its participating member employers. CALPERS provides
retirement and disability benefits, annual cost of living adjustments and death benefits to plan
members, who must be public employees and beneficiaries. The employees participate in the
Miscellaneous Employee Plan. Benefit provisions under the Plan are established by State statute.
Benefits are based on years of credited service, equal to one year of full time employment. Funding
contributions for the Plan are determined annually on an actuarial basis as of June 30 by
CALPERS; the Authority must contribute these amounts. The Plans' provisions and benefits in
effect at June 30, 2004, are summarized as follows:
Benefit vesting schedule
Benefit payments
Retirement age
Monthly benefits, as a % of annual salary
Required employee contribution rates

SILICON V ALLEY ANIMAL CONTROL AUTHORITY
BASIC FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
[NOTE 5 - PENSION PLAN (Continued)
CALPERS determines contribution requirements using a modification of the Eutry Age Normal
Method. Under this method, the Authority's total normal benefit cost for each employee from
date of hire to date of retirement is expressed as a level percentage of the related total payroll
cost. Normal benefit cost under this method is the level amount the Authority must pay annually
to fund an employee's projected retirement benefit. This level percentage of payroll method is
used to amortize any unfunded actuarial liabilities. The actuarial assumptions used to compute
con/rih"!;,,n req"iremen!~ are al~o ll~ed to compute the actuarial accrued liability. The Authority
does not have a net pension obligation since it pays these actuarially required contributions
monthly.
CALPERS uses the market related value method of valuing the Plan's assets. An investment rate of
return of 8.25% is assumed, including inflation at 3.5%. Annual salary increases are assumed to
vary by duration of service. Changes in liability due to plan amendments, changes in actuarial
assumptions, or changes in actuarial methods are amortized as a level percentage of payroll on a
closed basis over twenty years. Investment gains and losses are accumulated as they are realized
and ten percent of the net balance is amortized annually.
The Plan's actuarial liability has not been provided by CALPERS as of the date of these financial
statements.
Audited annual financial statements and ten-year trend information are available from CALPERS at
P.O. Box 942709, Sacramento, CA 94229-2709.
Additional disclosures will be included when made available by PERS.
I NOTE 6 - NET ASSETS
Net Assets is the excess of all the Authority's assets over all its liabilities, regardless of fund.
Net Assets are divided into three captions under GASB Statement 34, as described below:
Invested in Capital Assets, describes the portion of Net Assets which is represented by the current
net book value of the Authority's capital assets.
Restricted describes the portion of Net Assets which is restricted as to use by the terms and
conditions of agreements with outside parties, governmental regulations, laws, or other restrictions
which the District cannot unilaterally alter.
Unrestricted describes the portion of Net Assets which is not restricted to use.

"encumbered or designated for a particular purpose" under the terms of the amended JPA. Each ofthese
amounts is described on Schedule A.
We deducted the amount due the City of Cupertino, as calculated above. We then calculated the amounts
due the City of Saratoga and the Town of Los Gatos by completing Schedules C and D. Since these
amounts are deductible in determining the amount of the Cash Operating Reserve, which in turn affects
the calculation of these amounts, we were required to perform a series of calculations designed to ensure
the amounts due these Cities equaled the amounts deducted from Net Assets for this purpose.
Next 5n Seheaule /I., we calculated the minimum Cash Ollerating Reserve allo"'ed by the amended IP A
and determined that the amounts to be distributed did not cause the Cash Operating Reserve to fall below
that minimum.
Last on Schedule A, we reconciled the preliminary amount representing Net Assets in the Cash Operating
Reserve calculation above with the Net Assets amount in the June 30, 2004 draft financial statements.
City of Saratoga (Schedule C)
We computed Saratoga's share of each year's total member Contributions and Operating Expenses. We
divided the total of these two amounts to determine Saratoga's percentage contribution to Operating
Expense for the years the City was a member. We then multiplied this percent by the available Cash
Operating Reserve from Schedule A using the method discussed above, to arrive at the amount due on
withdrawal.
Town of Los Galos (Schedule D)
We computed Los Gatos' share of each year's total member Contributions and Operating Expenses. We
divided the total of these two amounts to determine Los Gatos' percentage contribution to Operating
Expense for the years the Town was a member. We then multiplied this percent by the available Cash
Operating Reserve from Schedule A using the method discussed above, to arrive at the amount due nn
withdrawal.

Dear Mr. Soszynski:
CALCULATION OF AMOUNTS TO BE DISTRIBUTED TO MEMBERS WITHDRAWING
FROM SILICON VALLEY ANIMAL CONTROL AUTHORITY
AT JUNE 30, 2004
As you requested, we have calculated the amounts to be distributed to the City of Cupertino, the City of
Saratoga and the Town of Los Gatos as a result of their withdrawal from the Silicon Valley Animal
Control Authority (SV ACA) effective June 30, 2004.
The purpose of our calculations was to measure the amount due each of these Cities on their withdrawal
from SV ACA, based on amounts in the audited financial statements for the periods ended June 30, 2001,
2002, 2003 and 2004 and the terms and conditions of Article IX of the underlying Joint Powers
Agreement (JPA) signed in July 2000 and amended in 2004. Since the 2004 amendment affected this
calculation, we prepared separate schedules for each withdrawing member showing their separate
calculations, along with a summary schedule, as explained below. Because of the timing of the
withdrawals, we were required to prepare the calculations in the sequence shown below, beginning with
Cupertino and proceeding to the simultaneous preparation of the remaining Schedules.
City of Cuper/ilia (Schedule B)
We were informed the City of Cupertino notified SV ACA of its intention to withdraw before the 2004
amendment to the Joint Powers Agreement was ratified, and our calculations of the amount due this City
on withdrawal therefore follow the provisions of the original JP A.
We computed Cupertino's share of each year's total member contributions, which we expressed as a
percent in the accompanying Schedule B. We used this percent to calculate Cupertino's share of
SV ACA's Other Revenues and Operating Expenses. We added Cupertino's share of Other Revenues and
subtracted Cupertino's share of Operating Expenses to arrive at the amount Distributable on Withdrawal
for each year, then we totaled these amounts to arrive at the total Distributable on Withdrawal of
$122,232 reflected on Schedule B. This amount was then inserted in the calculation of the Cash
Operating Reserve on Schedule A.
Cash Opera/illg Reserve Caleulalioll (Sehedute A)
Under the amended JPA, the amounts that may be distributed to any withdrawing members are limited by
a minimum Cash Operating Reserve calculation prescribed in the JPA and are calculated somewhat
differently than before. On Schedule A, we calculated the amount of the Cash Operating Reserve. This
calculation begins with a preliminary amount representing SV ACA's Net Assets as of June 30, 2004
before deducting the amounts due to all withdrawing members, as calculated below. In addition to the
amounts due withdrawing members, we deducted four other amounts considered to have been

DEPT HEAD:
Richard Taylor, City Attorney
SUBJECT: Amend City Code Section 3-05.010 regarding fines for violations ofthe
Building Code and other ordinances
RECOMMENDED ACTIONS:
I. Hold the public hearing and consider all testimony.
2. Introduce the Ordinance by reading its title and waiving the first reading.
3. Direct staff to place the Ordinance on the consent calendar for second reading and
adoption at the next regularly scheduled Council rneeting.
REPORT SUMMARY:
State law governs the maximum fines that may be levied in connection with violations of
the eity Code. In 2004 the City was authorized to increase the fines for rnultiple
violations of the building code (but not other provisions of the Code). This was the first
increase authorized since 1983. The attached ordinance would amend the City eode to
increase the City's fines for building code violations from $200 to $500 for the second
violation and from $500 to $1000 for the third violation. First violations would continue
to be subject to a $100 fine.
In addition, the attached ordinance would arnend the code to clarify that fines for second
and third violations can be irnposed only for a second violation of the same code
requirement. eurrently, the code could be interpreted to allow a higher fine for a second
code violation by the same person, even if the subsequent code violation is unrelated to
the first.
(f) In addition to the penalties provided by this Section, any condition caused or permitted to

sweeping services as needed during the year. These additional services include dense tree lined
streets that require more sweeping during the fall. The $5,000 allowance is incorporated in the
current budget and does not require amending.
It is therefore recommended that City Council award a street sweeping contract to Universal
Sweeping Services and authorize the eity Manager to execute the same.

REPORT SUMMARY:
During staffs annual contract meeting with Los Altos Garbage Company (our current street
sweeping contractor) they indicated that they could no longer perform street sweeping services
for the City, as their Company was phasing out this function of their business. Los Altos
Garbage has agreed to continue services for one additional month to ensure that sweeping
services would not be interrupted.
On May 16, 2005 Request for Proposals were sent out to eight contractors for sweeping services.
Of the eight proposal packages sent out by stafftwo contractors submitted proposals, Universal
Sweeping Services of San Jose and Clean Sweep of Gardena. Universal Sweeping Services was
the lowest proposal at $75,993 and Clean Sweep was second at $83,085.
Universal's proposal of$75,993 is a cost increase of$24,513 over the previous fiscal year. The
amount budgeted for street-sweeping services in FY 04/05 was $56,480. $50,000 has been
budgeted for street sweeping in FY 05/06; therefore it is necessary that the budget be amended to
reflect the current cost for these services in the amount of$25,993.
In addition, it is recommended that a $5,000 allowance be approved for additional street
