Financial Performance

Review of Top Five Revenues – September reflects the first two month’s collections of the new fiscal year as there is typically a 30-day delay in remittances. Sales taxes include the July advance less the net quarterly East Bay Bridge sales taxes per the agreement with the City of Oakland, resulting in a decrease of $62k over prior year. The majority of the Business License tax revenue is collected with the annual renewals due March 1, 2015. However, there are quarterly renewals and new businesses that are processed throughout the year. Business License collections for the first three months of the year of $120k are 11.6% greater than prior year. Transient Occupancy Tax (TOT) collections through September show TOT has increased 12% over last year’s total. Utility Users Tax shows a small decrease of $17k or -3.3% over the prior year and Card Room Tax revenue is relatively flat at $414k compared with the prior year total of $398k.

Fiscal Year End Audit Preparation The Finance Department continued to prepare closing entries and reconciliations for the end of the fiscal year 2013-14. Auditors from Lance, Soll & Lunghard will return the week of October 20th to complete the financial audit field work. Update on Redevelopment Dissolution Staff has prepared the 2014-15B ROPS (Recognized Obligations Payment Schedule) for the period of January 1, 2015 through June 30, 2015.

MEMORANDUM

DATE: October 15, 2014


FROM: Michael Parenti, Information Technology Department

SUBJECT: September 2014 Progress Report

Ongoing Projects:

1. Computerized Maintenance Management System:

Project Goal: To replace the legacy Public Works DSS software with a more modern software package that

is fully compatible with current server operating systems. The existing software is obsolete

and no longer supported by the vendor. The CMMS software tracks work orders, inventory

and assets, and predicts maintenance costs.

IT’s Role: IT has assumed the internal project manager role for the Public Works Department’s

Computerized Maintenance Management System (CMMS) software selection and

implementation process.

Project Status: IT has completed all revisions requested on the Facilities module and is awaiting Public

Works to verify and go live with Phase I. Work on preventative maintenance, sewer and

street data is next.

2. Electronic Document Management System (EDMS) Scanning and Migration:

Project Goal: To create an electronic repository for official City documents that will allow for fast, robust

searches, will minimize impact on staff’s workload, and can be integrated with the City’s

website for public access.

Updated Goal:

The existing EDMS vendor has discontinued support of the current SIRE software package.

The City has selected a new EDMS vendor and an implementation and migration of existing

data will kick off in August.

IT’s Role:

Information Technology Progress Report

August 2014

Page 2 of 4

IT has assumed the internal project manager role for the EDMS project which includes

scanning, uploading, and indexing all historical city resolutions, ordinances, meeting minutes

and agendas as available. IT is managing the vendor contract and overseeing the physical

transportation of files.

Project Status: The new EDMS software was installed in August. Partial configuration of the software was

completed. In September, staff attended a training conference on the new EDMS software,

finished the base configuration, created a test database for importing documents, and

solicited quotations for data migration from the legacy SIRE system to Laserfiche.

3. Police Department Bandwidth Increase:

Project Goal: Eliminate the unreliable, lower bandwidth T1 lines that are currently connecting the Police

Department to the City’s network and to increase the available bandwidth capacity at City

site that are currently on the fiber network to meet current demands.

IT’s Role:

Determine the appropriate bandwidth and method of connectivity

Solicit vendor proposals

Negotiate terms

Oversee implementation and configuration

Project Status:

In September a new 100Mbps connection between the Police Department and the remainder

of the City’s network was installed, tested, and brought online. Bandwidth requirements for

full integration between networks have now been met.

4. Recreation Software Replacement

Project Goal:

Replace existing software with a more user friendly, cost efficient option.

IT’s Role:

IT will work with the Community Services Department to develop a requirements document,

solicit appropriate vendors, organize software demonstrations, negotiate contracts and

manage the implementation of the software.

Project Status:

IT has had several meetings with the Community Services Department to detail the current

system and what changes and additional features are required. No update on this project –

other priorities used available resources on this project. Community Services has scheduled


August 2014

Page 3 of 4

a vendor showcase meeting for fall, putting this project on hold for the immediate future.

5. Website Redesign

Project Goal:

Refresh the look and feel of the City’s existing website, make content easier for site visitors

to find, prepare for future Social Media endeavors, and centralize the City’s online presence.

IT’s Role:

Manage the vendor contract, technical specifications, and centralization of the City’s online

presence. Coordinate with City Staff to outline the desired look, feel, and tone of the City’s

website. Review the vendor’s design and coordinate discussions with staff and the vendor to

revise as needed.

Project Status:

A project kick-off meeting occurred with the vendor outlining each party’s responsibilities

during the course of this project. As part of the City’s responsibility, the following work took

place in April / May:

o Internal meeting of small project team to discuss likes / dislikes of current

website’s design and function

o IT staff went around the City to take several hundred photographs for the vendor

to look through for the website redesign

o Vendor provided templates to assist with the redesign were completed and

submitted to the vendor for review.

In July, the vendor presented color boards, sample navigation, and design layouts to the

internal project team. Feedback was given to the vendor and work continues on the design

and content migration.

In August, a working copy of the site was delivered to the City for feedback. Staff is

reviewing the delivered site and compiling feedback to share with the vendor in September.

In September further design revisions were submitted between the vendor and City staff. A

design template was finalized in the first week of October. The new project go-live date is

mid-November.

6. Police Department – City Network Integration

Project Goal:

Integrate the Police and City Administration Domains as appropriate to allow for shared

management, pooling of resources, IT staff cross-training and support, and leverage of

existing hardware and infrastructure without compromising the integrity of the data or

security on either network.


August 2014

Page 4 of 4

IT’s Role:

IT is responsible for the planning and implementation of all integration tasks.

Project Status:

In July, IT staff from the PD and City Administration domains spend time learning the

various networks, documenting processes and planning for integration. Help Desk

operations are now being integrated by IT staff. IT had several meetings with VMWare as

well as outside implementation consultants to brainstorm various integration options. The

bulk of the integration tasks cannot be completed until the bandwidth between City Hall and

the Police Department has been increased. With the bandwidth increase complete, staff will

be compiling and presenting options for network and infrastructure integration where

appropriate.

7. CAD / RMS Software Upgrade

Project Goal:

Upgrade the existing CAD / RMS CYRUN software in the Police vehicles, dispatch center,

and back-end servers to the newest format.

IT’s Role:

IT is responsible for vendor management, implementation scheduling and coordinating

testing between the vendor and the end-users.

Project Status:

In July the vendor deployed the new version of the software to the dispatch center. The

vendor remained on site for several weeks to work through reported issues. IT continues to

work with the vendor on site and remotely to fine tune the various glitches in the system that

are being reported by the end-users in the Police Department. IT staff continues to field a

large amount of help desk items surrounding the deployment of the new version of the CAD /

RMS software. IT staff are responding to requests than can be fixed internally and managing

the process and interfacing with the vendor on other issues.

CITY OF EMERYVILLE COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT DEPARTMENT

DATE: October 1, 2014 TO: Sabrina Landreth, City Manager FROM: Charles S. Bryant, Community Development Director SUBJECT: PROGRESS REPORT – SEPTEMBER 2014

HIGHLIGHTS OF THE MONTH

September was a very busy month for the Building Division, with the highest number (128) and valuation ($94 million) of building permits issued since we began tracking them in July 2002, and the second highest number of inspections. Several large projects pulled permits prior to September 15 in order to avoid the new development impact fees, which took effect that day. Nonetheless, all this activity still generated $3.25 million in other fees, including $469,000 for the General Plan Maintenance Fund, $224,000 for the Public Art Fund, and $458,000 in school fees.

Another $1.4 million was made available for affordable housing projects on September 2, when the City Council approved the termination of an agreement related to condominium conversion at the Bridgecourt Apartments, thereby freeing up the money that had previously been deposited into the “trust fund” for that project.

Also on September 2, the Council approved the 2014 Celebration of the Arts Exhibit Purchase Award Program, including expansion of eligible permanent display sites to include the Police Station. The annual art show will run from October 11 to November 2, and the official selection of the art work to purchase will be made by the City Council on October 21.

The long-anticipated application for a Planned Unit Development on the Sherwin Williams site was submitted on September 27, proposing 540 residential units and about 94,600 square feet of commercial space. A contract to prepare an Environmental Impact Report will be considered by the City Council on October 7, and study sessions before the Planning Commission and City Council are scheduled for October 30 and December 2, respectively.

An application for the proposed affordable housing project at 3706 San Pablo Avenue was also submitted in September. Two community meetings were held on the project design and on the site clean-up plan, on September 10 and 25, respectively. A Planning Commission study session is scheduled for October 2.

The draft report of the Emeryville-Berkeley-Oakland Transit Study (EBOTS), with recommendations for improvements to local transit service in Emeryville, West Berkeley, and West Oakland, was published in September. It will be the subject of public review and comment over the next several months, prior to approval hearings later this year.


CITY COUNCIL, PLANNING COMMISSION, AND COMMITTEES

CITY COUNCIL

September 2

Annual Art Purchase Award. The City Council approved the 2014 Celebration of the Arts Exhibit Purchase Award Program, including expansion of eligible permanent display sites to include the Police Station, approval of a five-member selection panel to recommend art works to purchase, and appropriation of $10,000 from the Public Art Fund for administrative expenses. The annual art show will run from October 11 to November 2, and the official selection of the art work to purchase will be made by the City Council on October 21.

Chamber of Commerce Contract. The Council approved a $25,000 Professional Services Agreement with the Emeryville Chamber of Commerce to provide services related to implementation of the Economic Development Strategy in fiscal year 2014-15. The Council had previously continued this item from the July 15 meeting, requesting additional information, which was provided.

PRC Rezoning. On a 3-1 vote, with Councilmember West recused and Mayor Asher voting “no”, the Council passed the second reading of the ordinance rezoning the proposed Pain & Rehabilitation Consultants’ (PRC) Management Group parking lot parcel at the northwest corner of Stanford Avenue and Doyle Street from PO Park/Open Space to MUR Mixed Use with Residential. This ordinance was continued from July 15 when it would not have passed because Councilmember Atkin was absent and three affirmative votes are required to pass an ordinance.

Bridgecourt Apartments. The Council passed a resolution approving the termination of an agreement related to condominium conversion at the Bridgecourt Apartments. As a result, the $1.4 million that had been deposited into the “trust fund” for this project is now available to the City for use with other affordable housing projects.

September 16

Community Development Block Grants and Home Programs. The City Council passed a resolution authorizing the City Manager to enter into a three-year cooperation agreement with Alameda County to participate in the Urban County Community Development Block Grant Program and the Home Investment Partnership Program for Federal fiscal years 2015, 2016, and 2017. This agreement was previously approved by the Council on June 3; however, attorneys for the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD) subsequently determined that revisions were needed in the standard agreement language. Thus, not only Emeryville, but every other city in Alameda County that had previously adopted such an agreement, as well as the County itself, all had to have their agreements re-approved to conform to the new HUD language.


PLANNING COMMISSION

The regular September 25 Planning Commission meeting was postponed for one week due to a conflict with Rosh Hashanah, putting it on October 2. The regular October 23 meeting was also postponed for one week to October 30 to maintain four weeks between meetings. Thus, there was no Planning Commission meeting in September, and there will be two in October.

ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT ADVISORY COMMITTEE

At its September 3 meeting, the committee elected Bob Canter as Vice Chair, and heard a presentation on the Emeryville-Berkeley-Oakland Transit Study (EBOTS). The committee commented that the north end of the proposed “Trunkline Connector” bus should go to downtown Berkeley instead of Gilman Street, and that proposed AC Transit route changes should be characterized as background information for this study rather than recommendations coming from it.

BICYCLE/PEDESTRIAN ADVISORY SUBCOMMITTEE

The BPAC met on September 8 and reviewed two proposed residential buildings that are part of the Marketplace Planned Unit Development. While the subcommittee appreciated many features of the proposed projects, including proposed in-unit space for bicycle parking, concerns were raised about the door-zone of proposed on-street parking spaces opening into bike lanes. Additional items included a presentation from City Car Share about the possibility of expanding services in the Emeryville area, and a brief discussion about upcoming community meetings on September 27 and September 30 about traffic calming and diversion options for the Horton Street bicycle boulevard.

PUBLIC ART COMMITTEE

At its September 11 meeting, the PAC made a recommendation for the artists to participate in the Bus Shelter Temporary Art Program, Phase III. The PAC’s subcommittee to draft a Request for Proposals (RFP) and to form a selection process for the Emeryville Public Art Master Plan (PAMP) met on September 22. The next PAC meeting is October 9, when nominations for an art work to be purchased for installation in City Hall or the Police Station will be made for the City’s Ninth Annual Purchase Award.

PARKS AND RECREATION COMMITTEE

At its September 17 meeting, the committee commented on the draft design for Christie Avenue Park, and discussed dogs in Temescal Creek Park.

TRANSPORTATION COMMITTEE

The committee’s regular meeting of September 23 was postponed one week to September 30, and served as the second of two community meetings on proposed traffic calming measures for the Horton Street bicycle boulevard. (The first community meeting was held on Saturday, September 27.) In addition to hearing comments on these measures from residents, the business community, and other interested parties, the committee also heard a presentation and commented on the Emeryville-Berkeley-Oakland Transit Study (EBOTS), approved blue


disabled on-street parking in two locations, and considered blue, green, and yellow zones and diagonal parking in various locations throughout the city.

HOUSING COMMITTEE

The committee did not meet in September; its next regular meeting will be on October 1.

COMMUNITY PRESERVATION COMMITTEE

The committee did not meet in September; its next regular quarterly meeting will be on October 22.

PARK AVENUE DISTRICT ADVISORY COMMITTEE

The committee did not meet in September; its next regular quarterly meeting will be on November 12.

DEVELOPMENT COORDINATING COMMITTEE

The DCC met on September 17 with representatives from the Planning, Building, and Economic Development and Housing divisions of the Community Development Department; the Public Works, Community Services, and Police departments; the City Attorney’s Office; and the City Manager discussing the following projects:

Christie Avenue Park Redesign and Expansion. The Committee noted that the project team should investigate possible use of reclaimed water and select the landscaping palette accordingly. The proposed berms were identified as a possible source of concern as they would inhibit visibility into the park. It was suggested that street lights be installed along the three roadways surrounding the park and that additional lights be installed in the dog park and on all walkways within the park. Committee members felt that standard City “Lumec” lights should be used for streetlights and City Greenway lights should be used for lighting within the park. It was also noted that the development team should show the existing and future sewer lines within the park and make sure that trees are not planted in that area. It was also suggested that bicycle parking be provided in the vicinity of the park.

Marketplace Redevelopment Project: Proposed Residential Building on Shellmound Site (“Parcel A”). The Committee reviewed this project for a second time. It was suggested that the circulation plan include the vehicular movement of cars as they leave the building and show movements of vehicles along the north side of the building that will be used by moving and garbage trucks. It was also suggested that the plans include the following items: dimensions for all the alleys being created on the east and the north; a depiction of the adjacent Hyatt House hotel on elevation drawings; and the footprint of the future garage building immediately to the north of the site. It was pointed out that roof treatment needs to be further refined and that a non-reflective treatment was needed. The floor plans for the two- and three-bedroom units seemed to be designed for unrelated adults as opposed to families. Public Works staff stated that, as part of this project, the City would like to see elimination of the median on Shellmound Street and expansion of the sidewalk on the west side of the street near the intersection with Shellmound Way. Any public art component for the building should coordinate with the public art proposal under the Powell Street Bridge that is currently being implemented by the City.


Marketplace Redevelopment Project: Proposed Residential Building on Theater Site (“Parcel D”). The Committee reviewed this project for a second time. The Committee felt that the plans should show existing conditions across Shellmound, 63rd, and 64th Streets and the alleyway in order to better assess site context. There was a discussion on the need to treat the site as if it has no “back” side and, given the existing conditions on 64th Street, it would be useful to use this frontage for the least active uses. It was noted that the proposed uses (bike storage and mechanical rooms) along Shellmound Street would not activate the street and a relocation of townhomes on this side could be considered. Using public art creatively for activation of streets and blank walls was suggested. It was commented that townhomes do not seem to activate the street much when they can be accessed internally from the garage. In order to remedy that, elimination of internal corridors behind the townhomes was suggested so that residents would enter their townhomes through the front door.

Staff also noted that the 64th and Christie building, currently under construction, includes ground floor residential units on both the 63rd and 64th Street frontages, while the ground floor fronting the “alley” to the east is a blank wall. Thus, it seems logical to continue the ground floor residential uses along the 63rd and 64th Street frontages on Parcel D. In order to activate the Shellmound Street frontage, which is an important pedestrian corridor connecting uses to the north with the Marketplace development and Bay Street, the resident amenity uses, including fitness and recreation space, dog spa and bike shop could be put along the eastern side of the building. (Residential entries were not deemed preferable on this side, which faces the railroad tracks.) The less active uses, including utility space and bike storage, could be put along the alley to the west, facing the blank wall on the ground floor of the 64th and Christie building.

59th and Peladeau Bar, 5855 Hollis Street (former Tacos Del Mar space). Issues discussed by DCC members included the possible need for a grease trap and/or hood in conjunction with cooking, dishwashing, and food heating; and the feasibility and design of a sidewalk café. It was determined that the existing planter in front of the space is in the public right-of-way and is not part of the stormwater treatment system, so it could be removed or modified to accommodate a sidewalk café.

PLANNING DIVISION

CURRENT PLANNING PROJECTS

Major Projects Chart and Table. The attached bar chart illustrates the progress of each major development project through the Planning and Building “pipeline”, while the attached Major Projects table contains more detail on each project. Those projects that saw significant staff activity in September are discussed below.

Sherwin Williams Planned Unit Development (PUD). On September 27, Lennar Multifamily Communities submitted an application for a Preliminary Development Plan (PDP) for a PUD to redevelop the 8.59 acre former Sherwin Williams paint factory site. The proposed PUD would include 540 residential units, 79,600 square feet of office, 10, 000 square feet of retail and 5,000 square feet of restaurant/café space. The application includes two options with the same


mix and intensity of uses but different configurations of the buildings and park/open spaces. LSA Associates have been retained to conduct the environmental analysis for this project, and their contract is scheduled for approval by the City Council on October 7. Planning Commission and City Council study sessions have been scheduled for October 30 and December 2, respectively. The project will also be reviewed by the BPAC and the Parks and Recreation Committee at their meetings on October 6 and October 15 respectively. Staff participated in a conference call with the development team on September 19, and met with the development team and CEQA consultant on September 30. In both meetings, the scope and schedule for the proposed Environmental Impact Report were discussed.

3706 San Pablo Avenue Affordable Housing. On September 26, EAH Inc. submitted an application for construction of 87 affordable residential units with 6,130 square feet of commercial space and 115 parking spaces in a six story structure on the former “Golden Gate Lock and Key” site. A community meeting was held on September 10, with nine community members in attendance. Questions regarding remediation and dumping and graffiti on the site were posed. A resident who lives adjacent to the proposed dog park stated that she did not wish that feature to be included in the project. A concern was expressed regarding shortage of on-street parking in the neighborhood. A comment was made that the development resembled a gated community and the design would not address security issues on the neighboring streets. It was suggested that the project include a flue in the commercial space so that a restaurant could be accommodated in the future. With respect to environmental remediation, a public meeting was held on September 25 to provide an overview of the proposed site cleanup plan and to answer any questions. Proposed dust control measures, air quality monitoring, and truck routing were discussed, and appeared to be satisfactory to the neighbors in attendance. It is anticipated that site cleanup activities will be undertaken by the City in spring 2015. The project is scheduled for a Planning Commission study session on October 2.

Marketplace Redevelopment Project. Staff met with the owners/developers of this Planned Unit Development on September 3 to discuss issues related to the configuration of the Christie Avenue Park redesign and expansion, and on September 22 to discussion subdivision issues.

Parc on Powell. On September 5, staff met with the developer and general contractor of this residential project that is under construction to discuss on-going issues related to construction workers parking in the neighborhood.

Bay Street. On September 25, the City Manager, Community Development Director, and Acting Economic Development and Housing Manager had a “meet and greet” with UBS, the new owners of the Bay Street shopping center. It was decided that ongoing quarterly meetings with the ED&H Manager would be useful.

Potential Hotel. On September 11, the Community Development Director and Acting Economic Development and Housing Manager met with FPG Development Group, a national firm that claims to be the largest hotel operator in Silicon Valley, about a potential hotel site in Emeryville. Their top choice is the Christie Avenue properties owned by the City.

BUILDING DIVISION

Permit, Inspection, and Plan Check Activity and Public Contacts

The attached tables summarize the third month of fiscal year 2014-2015 for building permit and inspection activity. This was a very busy month for the Building Division; the number and valuation of permits issued was the highest since we began tracking them in July 2002, and the number of inspections conducted was the second highest on record (exceeded only by the previous month’s all time high). Several large projects pulled permits prior to September 15 in order to avoid the new development impact fees, which took effect that day. These included the 3900 Adeline residential project ($22 million), the Intersection mixed use project ($21 million), the Grifols “Project Horizon” tenant improvements ($42 million), and two major tenant improvement projects valued at $2 million and $1.5 million, respectively. Although no impact fees were collected in September, all this activity generated $3.25 million in other fees, including $469,000 for the General Plan Maintenance Fund, $224,000 for the Public Art Fund, and $458,000 in school fees. In addition, two projects reached the “finish line” this month, with Certificates of Occupancy issued for the Broken Rack billiard hall and bar at 5768 Peladeau Street and the Krubiner factory-built house at 5507 Beaudry Street. Following is a summary of the Building Division’s permit, inspection, and plan check activity and public contacts in September:

Permits Issued: 128 Total Valuation: About $94 million Fees Collected: About $3.25 million Inspections: 1,953 ‐ Major projects: 678 (35%) ‐ Other: 1,275 (65%) Fast Track Plan Check:

adjacent to, but not within, the City limits.

In addition, on September 4 the Chief Building Official and Community Development Director met with the owner of U.S. Spring, a concrete block building at West MacArthur Boulevard and Adeline Street, to discuss her efforts to ward off graffiti by having artists paint murals on the building walls.

Customer Feedback Questionnaire

For the month of September two questionnaires were received, one indicating positive and excellent in all categories, and the other indicating dissatisfaction with the service received. The applicant for the latter was contacted by the Community Development Director to discuss the situation and find out how we could have provided better customer service. The applicant said he had had to make a repeat trip to the City because the information initially given him about submittal requirements was incorrect. Further investigation revealed that this was an unusual situation where temporary personnel who were not completely familiar with our requirements were covering the front counter while regular staff was in training. The customer was given our apologies, with assurances that we will do our best to avoid such confusion in the future. It might be noted that, once the submittal requirements were clarified, the customer’s application (a new tenant sign at Bay Street) was approved within two days of submittal.


ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT AND HOUSING DIVISION

ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT

Economic Development Advisory Committee. Staff continued to provide support for the committee, coordinating with Planning staff for a presentation on the Emeryville-Oakland-Berkeley Transit Study (EBOTS) at the September 3 meeting, as noted above.

Chamber of Commerce Contract. As noted above, on September 2 the City Council approved a contract for the Chamber of Commerce to continue to provide services related to implementation of the Economic Development Strategy in fiscal year 2014-15.

Economic Development Strategy. Staff held an informal “brainstorming” session on September 15 on updating the City’s Economic Development Strategy, which was adopted in early 2012. Based on this discussion, the proposal was revised for further staff review. Once staff is satisfied with the proposal, it will be presented to the Economic Development Advisory Committee and City Council for discussion, and community workshops will be scheduled.

Berkeley-Emeryville Bioscience Corridor Partnership. Staff set up and staffed a “BE Bio Meet-Up” event on September 17 as part of the Berkeley-Emeryville Bioscience Corridor partnership.

EmeryStation West @ Emeryville Transit Center, Horton Street and 59th Street; and Heritage Square Garage, Horton Street at 62nd Street. Staff worked with Wareham Development to provide Caltrans staff with a schedule and project budget for an administrative extension of the State Transportation Improvement Program (STIP) $4.2 million grant for public parking and bus bays at the Transit Center. In October, staff will convene the regular quarterly meeting with Caltrans to review the project status, including the extension request.

Commercial Space Available Listings. Staff reviewed updated commercial space available reports prepared by our consultant and posted them on our website.

Local Business Assistance. Staff responded to four requests regarding vacant or available commercial properties in Emeryville, and provided information on California tax incentives to a local bioscience company.

AFFORDABLE HOUSING

Parc on Powell and Emme Housing Projects. In September, the marketing plan for the affordable units at the Parc on Powell (1333 Powell Street, formerly called Parkside and Papermill) project was finalized, and staff reviewed a progress payment request for the Emme (64th and Christie) project. Marketing for the affordable units in both projects will start in October. The lottery for the Parc on Powell units is scheduled to take place in the Council Chambers on November 12. The Emme project lottery will be scheduled soon.

3706 San Pablo Avenue. Staff attended a City of Oakland meeting for Notice of Funding Availability (NOFA) applicants. As noted above, a community meeting regarding design was held on September 10, and a community meeting on the site clean-up plan was held on September


25. Staff also met with the Police Department to review design as it relates to public safety, and had a pre-submittal meeting with the Building Division.

Rehabilitation Projects. Staff reviewed and denied a paint rehab application, sent out one application for roof repair, and responded to four public inquiries on the program for homes that were not eligible. Staff is working with the owners of an affordable disabled project to develop a plan for paint and minor rehabs of six units.

Homeless. Staff met with the cities of Berkeley and Oakland to work on a regional response to homelessness during the winter months. Staff is working with a homeless service provider to develop a scope of services for homeless outreach and case management.

Housing Notification. Two hundred fifty-six people were added to the Housing Notification List. The list was purged of duplicates and sent to Parc on Powell for their October outreach.

Public Information. Staff fielded 16 calls and emails regarding housing search, 6 calls and emails regarding landlord/tenant issues, 3 calls from developers, and 6 walk-ins with housing related issues.

Regional Coordination. On September 19, staff hosted a meeting of North County cities and Alameda County to discuss county funding of affordable housing and homeless programs. Staff also attended the Urban County Technical Advisory Committee meeting.

Rent Stabilization and Tenant Protection. On September 22, staff held a “brainstorming” session on possible rent stabilization and tenant protection measures, in preparation for a discussion by the Housing Committee on October 1. This was done at the direction of the City Council, who first raised the issue in conjunction with approval of the draft Housing Element on July 15 and referred it to the Housing Committee.

First Time Homebuyer (FTHB) and Below Market Rate (BMR) Ownership Programs:

One subordination request was completed. One subordination request was resubmitted; it had previously been declined due to new

principal amount in excess of program guidelines. Two subordination inquiries were received; at this point it is undetermined if the program

participants will move forward with their requests. Staff is working with an owner-occupancy violator of a BMR owner/FTHB loan borrower at

1500 Park Avenue to put the unit on the market. One BMR unit is in contract: a one-bedroom unit in Andante for a two-person household,

one of whom is a teacher at the Emery Unified School District. One BMR unit closed: a two-bedroom single family home in Oak Walk. One FTHB loan on a market rate unit in Adeline Place was paid off. Staff analyzed the short sale of a City loan in the Watergate complex which exceeds both

the $45,000 threshold for approval by the City Manager and the amounts that can be forgiven under the First Time Homebuyer Loan Program Guidelines. Based upon receipt of evidence of financial hardship from the borrower, this item will be brought to the City Council for its review and consideration in October.


Staff responded to 94 requests (via phone and email) for information regarding homeownership programs, including both interested parties and existing program participants.

Staff returned unexpended 2008 CalHome grant funds.

CAPITAL PROJECTS

Temescal Creek (48th Street) Community Organic Garden. In September site work was completed, plots were assigned, and planning was begun for a Grand Opening. Emeryville Community Organic Gardens (ECOG) and City staff are planning a grand opening to coincide with national Make a Difference Day on October 25, with the initial schedule being a Work Party from 1:00 to 3:00 p.m. and a Ribbon Cutting and Celebration from 3:00 to 4:00 p.m. A community project to add community planters outside the garden gate will allow low income residents, without plots, access to nutritious fresh foods.

PUBLIC ART PROGRAM

Sign of the Times Restoration and Renewal. In September contractors completed a side by side test of two anti-graffiti coatings to be placed on 25 utility boxes throughout the City featuring new and relocated images by Seyed Alavi as part of a renovation and reinstallation of his series “Sign Of The Times.” Contractors noted a nanotechnology product, Tru-Nano Graffiti Shield, compared extremely favorably to a product previously used as standard by the contractor. In recommending the product, the contractor, Peralta Service Company (PSC) said, “Great product. Hands down easier to apply, far great results in protection and [uses] common acetone to abate graffiti on one try. PSC recommends this product hands above, so much that PSC will be changing to this product.” Staff anticipates contracting for renovation and installation with the Tru-Nano Graffiti Shield in the New Year, with City Council approval of contracts anticipated before the end of the year.

Bus Shelter Temporary Art Program.

ADMINISTRATION/OTHER

American Planning Association California Chapter Conference. Associate Planner Diana Keena and Senior Planner Miroo Desai attended this conference in Anaheim on September 13-16. Panelists on urban places, transit connections and affordability mentioned a new transportation management organization and State authorization for BART to form assessment districts. Staff also attended sessions on Anaheim’s packing house turned community living room, leadership in tough situations, doing the right thing with different ethnic groups, siting housing near high-volume roads, development of downtown Santa Ana, tourism, and state legislation. As Inclusionary Director of the state APA Board, Ms. Desai attended the APA Board meeting on September 13 and held the Diversity Summit on September 14.

Chamber of Commerce Annual Meeting and Luncheon. The Community Development Director and Acting Economic Development and Housing Manager attended the Chamber’s annual luncheon at the Doubletree Hotel at the Berkeley Marina on September 18. The featured speaker was Kish Rajan, Director of the Governor's Office of Business and Economic Development, who spoke on California’s business climate and economic development strategy.

Alameda County Planning Directors Meeting. On September 26, the Community Development Director attended the monthly meeting of the Alameda County Planning Directors at Hayward


City Hall, hosted by the City of Berkeley. The group discussed “Airbnb” impacts and regulations; Universal Design standards; minimum livability standards for dwelling units, including group living; VMT (Vehicle Miles Traveled) versus LOS (Level of Service) for measuring traffic impacts, which is the subject of current revisions to the State CEQA Guidelines; and ABAG’s “PDA [Priority Development Area] Showcase” website. Everyone provided an update on the status of significant projects in their jurisdictions. The City of Albany will host the next meeting on November 7th.

Alameda County Transportation Commission Coordination. On September 3, staff met with Vice Mayor Ruth Atkin to discuss coordination between staff and the Commission. Vice Mayor Atkin serves as Emeryville’s representative on the Alameda County Transportation Commission, while staff represents Emeryville on the Alameda County Technical Advisory Committee (ACTAC), which provides support and recommendations to the Commission. The purpose of this meeting was to share information among Emeryville’s representatives prior to the next Commission and ACTAC meetings. It was decided to hold future coordination meetings on an as-needed basis.

Coastal Cleanup. Assistant Planner Sara Billing assisted at the annual coastal cleanup event held on September 20. Eighty-nine community members participated in the event by picking up trash along the Emeryville shoreline and recording their findings. This data is reported to the State, which helps to inform policy and track the health of the shoreline environment. Volunteers gathered nearly half a ton of garbage, including 1,211 cigarette butts, 214 plastic beverage bottles, 2,671 foam pieces, and 769 food wrappers. Many local businesses also supported the event by providing food, drinks, and gift certificates to raffle off to volunteers.

Oral Interview Panels. The Community Development Director served on an oral board on September 10 to help the City of Oakland select a new Planner V, and Senior Planner Miroo Desai served on an oral board in Hayward on September 25 for the position of Senior Planner.

State Legislation on Solar Panel Building Permits. In last month’s progress report the Chief Building Official noted that AB 2188, which addresses photo voltaic solar panel permits for single family residences, was awaiting the Governor’s signature. The bill has now been signed, as a result of which the City of Emeryville Building Division is required to create an expedited, streamlined permitting and inspection process by September 30, 2015 for rooftop solar energy systems up to 10 kW that meet building and safety standards. This process is to include over-the-counter application and review, and approval within a 24 hour period and/or on-line application, submittal, approval and payment options. As part of the application process, local jurisdictions must provide a checklist for applicants to fill out and submit. PG&E Pipeline Pathways. Staff met internally on September 15 to discuss the PG&E “Pipeline Pathways” program (dysphemistically referred to as “Operation Clear-Cut”) whereby PG&E proposes to cut down trees along gas pipeline routes, which they claim interfere with maintenance of the pipeline and whose roots “can damage the protective coating around the pipe, which is the first layer of protection against corrosion.” So far, the program has not come


to northern Alameda County, but has generated much concern and controversy in the east county, Contra Costa, Santa Clara, and Marin.

Stormwater (“C3”) Permit Process Coordination. On September 23, Planning, Building, and Public Works staff met to discuss the processing of stormwater permits, which are required for many large projects that also require building permits, but which are processed by the Public Works Department. Among other things, it was decided to advise applicants to make an appointment with Public Works staff to submit their applications, so that they will be in contact with the correct people from the beginning of the process.

Development Impact Fees. Staff of the Planning, Building, and Economic Development and Housing divisions met with the Finance Department and the City Attorney’s Office on September 4 and 9 to discuss the details of implementation of the new development impact fees, which took effect on September 15.

Economic Development Project Meeting. Economic Development and Housing staff, the Community Development Director, Public Works Director, City Attorney, and City Manager held their regular monthly meeting on September 2 to review the status of various economic development projects and programs.

Grants Coordination. At its September 18 meeting, this interdepartmental committee discussed various grant prospects, the status of grant applications that have been submitted, and the on-going management of existing grants.

Permit Tracking System and GIS. CRW TRAKiT, the Planning and Building Department’s permit tracking software, has now been live for four years, since September 2, 2010, and the CodeTRAK and GIS components “went live” on March 19, 2013. Staff has been using the software to track permits and code violations as they travel through the application and abatement processes. Staff met on September 11 to compare notes and ensure a smooth implementation of the system, and to convey any necessary modifications to the IT Manager. An intern continued listing Planning projects before 1992 for entry into the TRAKIT database.

Ocean Lofts 1258 Ocean Avenue UP07-01, DR07-02, VAR07-01

Two new single family homes on site of existing house. Demolition of existing house required City Council approval of project following Planning Commission recommendation.

On March 22, 2007, Commission deadlocked 3-3 on project, with one recusal, so application went to Council without a Commission recommendation. On April 17, 2007, Council approved project 4-0 with one recusal. Council approved one-year extension request on January 20, 2009. Council considered second extension request on April 20, 2010 and directed that ordinance be modified to allow demolition of existing house prior to issuance of building permit for replacement structure. Revised ordinance was passed on September 21, 2010 and took effect October 21, 2010. Planning Commission considered extension request, and new finding allowing demolition of existing house, on December 9, 2010, and voted to recommend denial to City Council. City Council held public hearing on January 18, 2011 and continued it to February 1, 2011, at which time they voted to approve extension to April 17, 2011, but not to allow demolition of existing house until building permit for replacement structure is ready to issue. Resolution to this effect was passed February 1, 2011. Building permit applications submitted on January 18, 2011; extended to July 18, 2012 by Chief Building Official on November 21, 2011. Permit applications were approved and ready to issue but expired on July 18, 2012. Tree removal permit for street tree approved by Planning Commission on September 27, 2012. On March 13, 2014, City received letter from Alameda County District Attorney saying that applicant was the victim of a crime by which the property was fraudulently “sold” a number of times beginning on March 8, 2011 when a deed with a forged signature was recorded with the Alameda County Recorder. DA requested City to “place the property rights back into position held as of March 8, 2011.” Thus, planning and building permits are still considered valid, building permit is being processed and is expected to be issued soon.

To: Sabrina Landreth, City Manager

From: Chief of Police

Subject: PROGRESS REPORT – SEPTEMBER 2014 FIELD SERVICES DIVISION For the month of September, the Field Services Division continues to be short staff despite the hiring of the four trainees. Two officers are out on long term on duty injuries and another officer has injured himself off duty. The Division’s four teams are at minimum staff (a Sergeant and three officers) and the Traffic team remains unfilled until patrol is at full staff. The patrol officers have been working additional hours in overtime in order to maintain minimum staffing. Although the Division is short staffed, the community has not noticed a reduction in services. On September 26, on 47th Street, the Department received 911 calls of a shooting. Apparently, a black sedan was waiting for persons in a teal colored car and shot at the car. The teal car and the black sedan left the scene. The victims of the teal car showed up at Highland Hospital who called the Police Department. The case has been referred to the detectives for follow up. Officer Michelle Shepherd has attended a 38 hour CIT training in Oakland. CIT training teaches officers how to handle a myriad of issues such as domestic violence, chronic homeless persons who have social and mental issues. Officer Shepherd will be joining a new Alameda County task force consisting of law enforcement agencies in developing resources to assist officers. The trainees have been preparing for the Academy which will begin October 13th. Various officers have met with the trainees in preparing them as to what to expect at the Academy. The trainees have been assisting Property and Evidence in a purge of old cases and also assisted Traffic in the cleanup of old radio systems, broken computers and other miscellaneous old equipment. Four truckloads were taken to Public Works which provided some additional storage for the Police Department. There has been an increase of homeless camps and transients in our city. They have set up encampments in our city primarily around the Joseph Emery Park and under the

Officer Williams contacted East Bay Bridge Security Guard, Marcus Smith, who advised he would check to see if the burglary was captured on surveillance video. Guard Smith located some surveillance video and was reporting a second auto burglary in front of Michael's as Officer Williams was still in the area. Officer Williams responded to Michael's and he noticed the vehicle but did not see a suspect. Officer Williams located a witness who was sitting in his car at about 6:30am when he saw an Hispanic male wiping down the interior of a gold Honda Civic, the witness thought he was cleaning the inside of the car and said the guy looked like he was on drugs.

Officers Williams and Costello met with the victim who said the suspect is her boyfriend and that he just left her apartment a few minutes ago in his white Honda. The two do not reside together and were having an argument and that she was doing most of the yelling. The victim said the argument got heated and that suspect pushed her down into one of the kitchen chairs against the window as an effort to calm her down. The victim said suspect did nothing wrong and she does not want him arrested. The victim had no visible marks and said she was not hurt in any manner. Officer Johnson admonished suspect who waived his rights. The suspect said the victim became angry with him because of some information she found on his cell phone and tried to slap him who responded by grabbing or "Bear hugging" her in order to calm her down.

5

detained was the same bicycle being reported as stolen. The suspect was arrested for all related crimes and all items stolen by the suspect on this day were returned to the rightful owners. On August 28, Officer Michelle Shepherd was conducting patrol in the south end of town when she noticed a vehicle with expired registration. Officer M.

Officer Ingles’ investigation revealed the two were married and the female just saw her husband driving another woman’s vehicle she suspected him of cheating with. She confronted him and claimed he struck her in the face. The husband claimed they were separated and she began following him in her car. He stopped to ask her to stop when she attempted to pull a knife on him. He took the knife away and threw it on the roof of the nearby building. The female then got a baseball bat


6

from her car and swung it at him. He was able to take that away from her and threw that on the roof. He tried to restrain her and she kept hitting him. He walked back to his car as she followed him hitting him in the face and neck. Both had minor injuries and it seemed tough at first to tell who was telling the truth. The Officers looked around for any evidence and located a CCTV camera which just happened to face the area where the fight took place. Officer Ingles followed up with the calling party (a passerby) while other officers went to the building roof. A baseball bat and knife were found and the CCTV recording showed the husband was indeed telling the truth. The female was the primary aggressor and was arrested for spousal battery.
