2. Consent Agenda: Motion from Peter Leroe-Munoz, and a second from Chappie Jones to approve the Consent Agenda with the addition of Gary Waldeck in attendance of the November 2017 meeting. Approved unanimously by consensus.

3. Santa Clara Valley Water District, represented by Santa Clara Valley Water District Chair, Richard Santos and Deputy Operating Officer, Garth Hall District Board Director, Nai Hsueh, Rachael Gibson, Interim Deputy Administrative Officer-Government Relations, presented information in support of the Pacheco Reservoir expansion project and provided a water supply update and overview.

• The 2014 voter approval of Proposition 1: Water Quality, Supply and Infrastructure Act provided Californians a vision of improved water security and environmental stewardship through strategic investment in projects and programs that deliver regional benefits. The Pacheco Reservoir Expansion Project fulfills that vision and delivers critical environmental and water supply benefits to Santa Clara, San Benito, Monterey and Santa Cruz counties.

• Once established, the expanded Pacheco Reservoir provides a water storage resource separate from the operational constraints of San Luis Reservoir. This expansion advances water supply reliability and water security for Santa Clara Valley.

• This project also would bolster water supply reliability for not just Silicon Valley, but the region as a whole, which supports local and regional economies of statewide significance.

• Pacheco Reservoir expansion will replace intermittent seasonal flows in Pacheco Creek with year-round flows at temperatures suitable for spawning, rearing and migration of steelhead. Through this project, Pacheco Creek will now provide year-round habitat for the threatened South-Central California Coast steelhead and deliver on a Core 1 recovery objective as described in the National Marine Fisheries Service’s South-Central California Steelhead Recovery Plan

• Motion by Manny Cappello and a 2nd by Jeffrey Christina to send a letter of support for the Proposition 1 grant application, asking for our region’s share of the Proposition 1 funds for the Pacheco Reservoir. Board approved unanimously by consensus.

c. SPUR partnership President Rod Sinks discussed a proposed partnership with SPUR

San Jose. The partnership includes SPUR presenting policy workshops for the BOD on Transportation, Sustainability, Housing. SPUR and the Cities Association of Santa Clara County (CASCC) are seeking to build their support for the other through a series of collaborative engagements and benefits. i. Goals

time civic leader. The City Council will appoint someone to fill the seat for the remainder of the term, a 3-year term.

• Greg Scharff shared that Palo Alto is partnering with a start-up to have FAA approval to

have blood flown blood bank to Stanford Hospital which is a few miles and flies over the Stanford Research Park.

years and a bond measure previously failed. On January 9th, Los Altos City Council approved a $34.7 million ($23 million general fund) budget for a new community center to be completed by December by 2020.

• Manny Cappello, shared that Saratoga held the 2nd Annual Celebration of Light on

December 16th The second annual “Celebration of Light” interfaith event, which honors four of the biggest religious traditions that represent Saratoga residents: Christianity, Islam, Hinduism and Judaism. The event featured symbols representing the four religions, each one about 6 feet tall and illuminated. There will be a crèche for Christianity, a green crescent moon and star for Islam, a menorah for Judaism and a trident and om for Hinduism. Children’s choirs from local faith communities in Saratoga performed, and guests lit candles together.

• Steve Tate, Morgan Hill, reported that the day of their tree lighting also was the

opening of three new parks in Morgan Hill: The Creek Park (located between West Second and Third streets) and Hilltop Park (at the end of West Third Street), The Railroad Park (on Depot Street next to the old train station building), on 3rd street a passive park. The parks are already proving to be quite successful.

• Lenny Siegel reported that on December 12th, Mountain View voted unanimously to approve the Bayshore Precise Plan. North Bayshore Precise Plan calls 9,850 new apartments near Google. The plan lays out a vision for a new urban community where corporate tech workers could live, work, dine and shop -- possibly all within the same building.

• Debi Davis reported the challenge and disappointment that on Wednesday, January

10th agents with U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement descended on 7-Eleven franchises in Santa Clara (as they did in other areas across the country). ICE reported in the press they were began audits and interviewed employees and managers. There were no arrests in Santa Clara.

BACKGROUND INFORMATION: While automakers and governments around the world continue to push for greater EV adoption, EV charging infrastructure is quickly becoming the most significant barrier to growth in this segment. Unlike gasoline car owners, charging behavior for EV owners indicate that more than 80% of EV drivers charge their cars at home or at work. In addition, housing trends show that a larger share of the general US population is moving out of single-family homes and into cities with high density, multi-unit dwellings (MUDs). In 2016, about 50% of all new residential housing construction in CA was multi-unit dwellings. The accessibility of EV chargers in MUDs, and the ability to connect future Electric Vehicle Supply Equipment (EVSE) in parking structures, is critical to the adoption of EVs. Earlier this year, a federal working group for Natural Resources Canada examining EV infrastructure readiness found that: “The most significant barrier presented by MUDs is the common lack of electrical [power] capacity and distributed subpanels to support broad EVSE deployment. We have seen that a lack of access to home charging is a significant barrier to EV adoption that must be addressed… Among existing dwellings, multi-unit dwellings deserve priority attention. EV charging in MUDs often have two key issues associated with them: first, insufficient power capacity; and second, restrictive decision making processes that limit a resident’s ability to install a charging station.” The issues referenced above can be mitigated for new MUDs if appropriate building codes are established to provide for both current and future power capacity needs.

REQUEST (WHAT WILL BE PRESENTED?):

- General overview of and introduction to Tesla - Importance of EV infrastructure for multi-unit dwellings and workplaces - EV readiness opportunities for new construction (model ordinance and potential local targets)

RELEVANCE TO THE CITIES ASSOCIATION:

- Cities are in the process of implementing local climate action plans and state ZEV and GHG goals; the transportation sector plays an important role to help meet the goals within those plans

- EVs represent a significant opportunity to address transportation sector goals and deploying charging infrastructure is a critical component to driving EV adoption in cities

WHAT ACTION IS REQUESTED OF THE CITIES ASSOCIATION?

- Explore opportunities within individual cities to voluntarily increase EV readiness requirements in new construction

- Support an increase in EV readiness requirements for new construction at the statewide level MATERIALS TO BE SENT TO SUPPORT PRESENTATION:

- 1 pager as a follow up

Board of Directors Meeting – Agenda Report

Meeting Date: February 8, 2018

Subject:

3d - SFO Airport Proposal

Initiated by:

SFO Roundtable Chair Elizabeth Lewis Committee Member Ann Wengert

Previous Consideration:

none

Fiscal Impact: $0

Policy questions: Does the Board wish to add a Cities Selection Committee appointment for a Santa Clara representative to the SFO Roundtable if the SFO Roundtable changes their by-laws to include this representative?

Summary: At the Ad Hoc Roundtable Committee meeting on January 25, 2018, SFO Roundtable Chair Elizabeth Lewis and Committee Member Ann Wengert presented a potential opportunity of increasing the SFO Roundtable by 2 members to allow Santa Clara County and Santa Cruz County to appoint a member each to their Roundtable until a Roundtable is formed for the South Bay/South Peninsula. SFO By-laws will need to be amended by each of the member jurisdictions.

Recommended: Move to appoint a Santa Clara County Representative to the SFO Roundtable.
