Written Communications for February 21, 2023 Special City Council Agenda Item 1: City Hall Renovation
•The City Hall Subcommittee assigned by Council, consisted of Councilmember Jon Willey and
Councilmember Kitty Moore. The first meeting coordinated with Staff, in particular the CIP
Manager and Public Works Director, was held August 2, 2022, the building was toured, need for
the project discussed, and future topics and scheduling were planned as reflected in the
presentation slides provided by Staff. There is also a vast amount of support documents online.
•During the course of the multi-session meetings of the Subcommittee, Staff determined that
moving the EOC to the new Torre Avenue City Hall Annex building would be an excellent idea,
and that project is moving forward to locate 1,300 sf of EOC in that building.
•The following 3 slides show the Staff Recommendation to the City Hall Subcommittee to renovate
the City Hall.
•Following the 3 slides are slide decks provided by Public Works in their comprehensive review of
this project.
-Councilmember Moore
Meeting #5 - 10/21/2022
Topic: Funding & Summaries
City Hall Subcommittee
We recommend proceeding with the following projects:
•Full Renovation of City Hall building (Seismic, HVAC, IT, Interiors, etc.),
budgeting $26M. Consider upgrading to “Essential Facility” standards
($4M). Hire consultants to perform workplace planning (to confirm
growth projections), and cost analysis.
•Add parking behind Community Hall, budgeting $350,000 (scope and budget to
be confirmed, will be part of existing Civic Center Parking project)
•As part of CIP Program discussions for FY23-24, consider hiring Consultants to
develop schedule and requirements for City Hall demobilization/mobilization
strategy and communications.
CIP Program Strategy
•CDTFA Audit
•Potential for substantial short-and
long-term impacts
•Ability to fund additional CIP Projects
•Use of fund balance above the
unassigned amounts require a 3-year
payback plan both for General and
Capital Funds
•Capital Reserve has a min $5M reserve

2005/06 Structural Analysis
determined the need for
additional shear walls,
reinforcement of the
existing shear walls, and
improvements to the roof
to lessen the loading and
strengthen the diaphragm.
2005/06 Structural Report
2011 – 2012 Reports
Examining Structural Compliance with
1985 UBC “Essential Facility” Requirements
•The loading of the upper level
was underestimated by
approximately 45 – 59%
•The loading of the lower level
was underestimated by
approximately 24%
•Overall the building’s loading
was underestimated by
approximately 34%
•The concrete is code compliant,
but steel reinforcing and
anchoring requires improvement
2011 Structural Analysis by AKH: Deficiencies
•Improvements to the shear walls:
Steels reinforcement, added
plywood, anchoring, etc.
•Add shear walls at upper level
•Remove heavy roof tiles and
improve roof diaphragm
•Improve diaphragm chord
connections by welding plates to
beam webs
•Add steel and/or carbon fiber
‘jackets’ to concrete columns
and improve column ties
2011 Structural Analysis by AKH: Remedies
•HVAC equipment and
infrastructure is 25 years past its
life time.
•HVAC system is terribly inefficient
and costly to operate. The
controls are severely outdated.
•Electrical equipment, fixtures,
main switchboard and
distribution system installed in
1965, are beyond their useful life.
•Emergency power system
requires full upgrade from 1965
system
2012 Essential Services Facility Analysis by
Perkins & Will, AKH and PAE: Deficiencies
•Structural Analysis is essentially
the same as 2011 report.
•Architectural: add one FR
partitions and smoke partitions
•Architectural: change out finishes
to be code complaint for
fire/smoke ratings
•Architectural: Roof assemblies
must be Class A. The equipment
attachments are not compliant.
The report presented four scenarios for each system’s remedies:
a. No Building Upgrade (EOC relocation)
b. Seismic Upgrade - Minimum scheme (EOC incorporation)
•Shear walls & Concrete walls improvements
•Roof tile & equipment rework, with possible adjustment to roof profile
•Seismic supports for HVAC equipment and ductwork
•20% of cost for ADA upgrade
c. Infrastructure Upgrade – Moderate Scheme
•Includes all items from Seismic Upgrade
•Fire & Life Safety upgrade to meet current codes
•MEP upgrade to meet operation requirements as Essential Services Facilities
•Energy efficiency improvements to HVAC and enclosure systems
•Full ADA/Accessibility upgrade
d. Building Replacement
2012 Essential Services Facility Analysis by
Perkins & Will, AKH and PAE: Remedies
2014 City Hall Alternates Study
Structural Evaluation as part of the
Civic Center Master Plan
At the 8/19/2014 meeting, Council requested a high-level feasibility study of
the existing City Hall prior to determining a preferred Civic Center Master Plan.
The Council directed staff to bring forward Master Plan alternatives and cost
estimates for the following elements:
·City Hall options including: seismic retrofits with and without an Emergency
Operations Center (EOC), a remodel of City Hall, and a potential new City
Hall;
·Parking solutions for the existing and projected parking deficit including
under Library Field, behind the Library, and under a potential new City Hall;
·Library Program Room expansion options.
2014 Structural Analysis by Tipping Mar
Five design options were under consideration for City Hall; the first three
options consider structural strengthening of the existing building.
Option A: Seismic Strengthening, non-Essential Services Facility (EOC
Relocation). Includes:
·All recommendations from 2012 report. Noted that Column ‘jackets’ could be replaced with
the addition of steel columns.
·Seismic improvements to non-structural elements such as suspended ceilings, partition walls,
and glazing systems
Option B: Seismic Strengthening, Essential Services Facility (EOC
Incorporation). Includes:
·All structural recommendations from Option A.
·Seismic improvements to non-structural elements …to meet Essential Services Facility
performance requirements
Option C: Complete architectural remodel. Includes:
·All structural recommendations from Option A and B.
·New large light court at building’s center
2014 Structural Analysis by Tipping Mar
2021 Seismic Evaluation
Tier 1 Analysis
Two scenarios were considered:
•Scenario One: “Essential Facility” Risk Category IV, available
for Immediate Occupancy following a BSE-1E seismic event,
and available for Life Safety following a BSE-2E seismic
event. The performance requirements address structural
and non-structural elements.
•Scenario Two: Typical Office Building, Risk Category II (EOC
relocated) with the performance criteria of “Collapse
Prevention” following a BSE-2E seismic event.
2021 Structural Analysis (MME): Scenarios
Seismic Remediations required for Essential Facility (IV)
occupancy:
•Improve Roof Diaphragm Shear capacity (nailing, loading)
•Improve the Roof Diaphragm Collector Splice Capacity
•Improve the Anchor Bolt Connections at top of Shear Walls
•Improve the Upper Floor Concrete Shear Wall Flexural Capacity and add
Boundary members
Seismic Remediations required for both Essential Facility (IV)
occupancy and Office Building (II) occupancy:
•Upgrade the Out of Plane Connection of Veranda Beam
•Improve the Upper Floor Concrete Shear Wall Shear Capacity
2021 Structural Analysis: Remedies
The following structural scopes require additional
evaluation to confirm the requirements, but we believe this
work is also required.
Seismic Remediations required for Essential Facility (IV)
occupancy:
•Ground floor Wall [Horizontal] Reinforcing at Openings
•Improve Columns Reinforcement ties for Confinement
•Improve Foundation Dowels’ capacity
Seismic Remediations required for both Essential Facility (IV)
occupancy and Office Building (II) occupancy:
•Add Continuous Cross Ties at Upper Floor Shear Wall
•Repair Upper Floor Concrete Shear Wall adjacent to diaphragm openings
•Repair Column Splices and Girder Stirrups
2021 Structural Analysis: Remedies
Summary & Recommendations
While the focus of the reports may vary, the findings are consistent regarding
the status of the structural system:
•The building relies on concrete shear walls for lateral load resistance and a
combination of concrete walls and isolated concrete columns to support
the gravity loads. These elements do not have sufficient ductility to resist
seismic lateral displacements without sustaining significant damage.
Damage to these critical structural gravity load-resisting elements could
result in collapse of the roof structure. The life safety and economic risk
could be substantial.
•The building does not comply with either the Essential Services Facility
requirements or [Regular Building] evaluation criteria unless a seismic
strengthening is undertaken. The 2021 findings are similar to the findings in
the previous reports.
Summary
1. Seismic Upgrade of the building: will trigger some
additional work, like ADA/Accessibility improvements.
2. HVAC and other Infrastructure systems: how can you not
replace these systems that are 50+ years old?
3. Seismic + HVAC/Infrastructure + Accessibility/ADA work will
affect over 75% of the building, which leads us to consider
a full interior renovation project.

Summary & Recommendations
Thank You!
9/22/2022 discussion on the Pros/Cons of various City properties as EOC locations
(cost implications excluded from this table)
Location PROS CONS
[Current] City Hall · Best location for the EOC team to activate
from during an event.
· Proximity to staff work locations maximizes
the usable space in large scale incidents.
· Storage of EOC supplies is easiest to plan for
in this location.
· If we keep the existing footprint of City Hall,
this area could be used for workplace or
community functions (although the EOC can
be a multi-function meeting room.
· The current generator does not power all
EOC systems.
· Portable generator parking must be planned
for.
City Hall Annex
(10455 Torre)
· Proximity to City Hall is effective location for
the EOC team to activate from during an
event.
· Storage of EOC supplies can be planned for
in this location
· Timing is good to ‘pivot’ the program for
this building while we are in the design
phase.
· Commits the long term use of the facility to
EOC and EOC related functions
· While activated as EOC, it means the Permit
Center will not be open (while this is the
Permit Center – we’d want to consider
moving Permit Center back to City Hall in
the long term)
· Portable generator parking must be planned
for.
Service Center
· Storage of EOC supplies could be
accommodated in this location
· Distance to City Hall/EOC Management
team is longer.
· Compromises the other functions of the
Service Center when activated.
· This building should be considered for
significant renovation generally. Adding the
EOC begs the question of re-planning the
overall facility (and this is a much longer
process).
· Portable generator parking must be planned
for.
· The available space for the EOC would limit
the number of staff and may require a
remote option.
· The Service Center is the primary staging
location for response equipment. The
addition of the EOC to the property could
over saturate the area with response
personnel and equipment.
· The Service Center currently serves as the
backup EOC.
Civic Center, New
stand-alone
Building
· A dedicated space for Emergency
Operations.
· A standalone building would have limited
alternate uses.
Community Hall
· It is a good building to invest in seismic
strengthening.
· Adjacency to City Hall/EOC Management
team is very good.
· Video capabilities of the building will be
useful.
· Storage of EOC supplies would need to
remain at City Hall and carted over in the
case of an event.
· Portable generator parking must be planned
for.
- 1-
· Compromises the other functions of the
Community Hall/Council Chambers when
activated. Would need to relocate City
Council to conduct public meetings if the
EOC is activated.
Quinlan
Community
Center
· Rebuilding one side of the building is
possible.
· Storage of EOC supplies can be planned for,
in this location with some encroachment to
the existing facility.
· The large open space in the Cupertino Room
would provide enough space for staff in
large incidents.
· Additional rooms would provide briefing
areas for field staff.
· Quinlan Community Center serves as the
primary care and shelter facility after an
incident. Facilities include traditional
shelter, Temporary Evacuation Point, and
cooling and warming centers.
· Distance to City Hall/EOC Management
team is longer.
· Compromises the other functions of the
QCC, when activated.
· Portable generator parking must be planned
for.
· The main space would require the assembly
of break-out/meeting rooms within the
space, during activation
Senior Center
· Rebuilding one side of the building is
possible.
· Storage of EOC supplies can be planned for,
in this location, with some encroachment to
the existing facility.
· The large open space in the Reception Hall
would provide space for staff in large
incidents.
· Senior Center serves as a care and shelter
facility after an incident. Facilities include
traditional shelter, Temporary Evacuation
Point, and cooling and warming centers.
· Distance to City Hall/EOC Management
team is longer.
· Compromises the other functions of the
Senior Center, when activated.
· Portable generator parking must be planned
for.
Library · Adjacency to City Hall/EOC Management
team is good.
· Separate entrance is helpful.
· The building is leased to SCCLD, which
presents many complications.
· Storage of EOC supplies would need to
remain at City Hall and carted over, in the
case of an event.
· Portable generator parking must be planned
for.
· It’s a new build-out and would be an
unfortunate renovation project.
· Maintenance of equipment including audio
and visual tools would be unreliable.

Past Studies & Code Findings
•Existing conditions:
City Hall parking: 58 spaces
Library Parking: 166 spaces
Onstreet parking: 104 spaces
•Parking Demand survey found that an
additional 20 – 40 spaces were needed
to meet the demand.
2012 CCMP Parking Study
•Existing conditions (presumably
unchanged):
City Hall parking: 58 spaces
Library Parking: 166 spaces
Onstreet parking: 104 spaces
•Parking Demand survey found that an
additional 46 spaces were needed to
meet the demand.
2014 CCMP Parking Study
•Kimley Horn report for Library
Expansion project found that Civic
Center was deficient by 185
parking spaces, based on
demand, prior to the construction
of the Library expansion project.
•A proposed solution was a one-
story parking deck over the entire
surface parking area, at a cost of
approximately $3.2M. This would
net an additional 215 stalls.
2020 Library/CCMP Parking
Study
•Table 19.124.040(A) requires
one parking stall per 285 sq.
ft. of office building.
(E) City Hall: 24,140/285 =
85 spaces
(N) City Hall: 36,140/285 =
127 spaces
•Currently there are 84
parking spaces adjacent to
City Hall & Community Hall
2022 Zoning Code requirements for Parking
•For the Library and
Community Hall, another 360
parking spaces are required
by the zoning code, in
addition to the City Hall
requirements.
Community Hall requires
112 spaces, and
the Library requires 248
spaces by code.
•Currently there are 144
parking spaces in this area.
2022 Zoning Code requirements for Parking
•Parking demand studies
show that Civic Center is
deficient by approximately
185 parking spaces
•Parking requirements in the
zoning chapter of the

TOPIC: Summaries
1. Concepts Reviewed to Date
a. Seismic Retrofit & Infrastructure Upgrades
Two scenarios were considered:
•Scenario One: “Essential Facility” Risk Category IV, available
for Immediate Occupancy following a BSE-1E seismic event,
and available for Life Safety following a BSE-2E seismic
event. The performance requirements address structural
and non-structural elements.
•Scenario Two: Typical Office Building, Risk Category II (EOC
relocated) with the performance criteria of “Collapse
Prevention” following a BSE-2E seismic event.
2021 Structural Analysis (MME): Scenarios
Seismic Remediations required for Essential Facility (IV)
occupancy:
•Improve Roof Diaphragm Shear capacity (nailing, loading)
•Improve the Roof Diaphragm Collector Splice Capacity
•Improve the Anchor Bolt Connections at top of Shear Walls
•Improve the Upper Floor Concrete Shear Wall Flexural Capacity and add
Boundary members
Seismic Remediations required for both Essential Facility (IV)
occupancy and Office Building (II) occupancy:
•Upgrade the Out of Plane Connection of Veranda Beam
•Improve the Upper Floor Concrete Shear Wall Shear Capacity
2021 Structural Analysis: Remedies
The following structural scopes require additional
evaluation to confirm the requirements, but we believe this
work is also required.
Seismic Remediations required for Essential Facility (IV)
occupancy:
•Ground floor Wall [Horizontal] Reinforcing at Openings
•Improve Columns Reinforcement ties for Confinement
•Improve Foundation Dowels’ capacity
Seismic Remediations required for both Essential Facility (IV)
occupancy and Office Building (II) occupancy:
•Add Continuous Cross Ties at Upper Floor Shear Wall
•Repair Upper Floor Concrete Shear Wall adjacent to diaphragm openings
•Repair Column Splices and Girder Stirrups
2021 Structural Analysis: Remedies
While the focus of the reports may vary, the findings are consistent regarding
the status of the structural system:
•The building relies on concrete shear walls for lateral load resistance and a
combination of concrete walls and isolated concrete columns to support
the gravity loads. These elements do not have sufficient ductility to resist
seismic lateral displacements without sustaining significant damage.
Damage to these critical structural gravity load-resisting elements could
result in collapse of the roof structure. The life safety and economic risk
could be substantial.
•The building does not comply with either the Essential Services Facility
requirements or [Regular Building] evaluation criteria unless a seismic
strengthening is undertaken. The 2021 findings are similar to the findings in
the previous reports.
Summary - Structural Analysis
1. Seismic Upgrade of the building: will trigger some
additional work, like ADA/Accessibility improvements.
2. HVAC and other Infrastructure systems: how can you not
replace these systems that are 50+ years old?
3. Seismic + HVAC/Infrastructure + Accessibility/ADA work
will affect over 75% of the building, which leads us to
consider a full interior renovation project.
4. Essential Facility (Risk Category IV) or not (Risk
Category II)?
Scope of Work Scenarios
Aspects to consider
Summary:
It is well-documented that many structural engineers
recommend that the 1965 City Hall building needs to be
seismically retrofit. The HVAC and other infrastructure systems
are also well-past their useful life and require replacement. We
recommend a full seismic/structural upgrade, as well as a
complete reconstruction of all infrastructure systems such as
HVAC and life safety systems.

Space Planning: Planning for Growth
Summary:
We believe the current footprint of City Hall can accommodate
the Staff, Council offices and support functions such as
community meeting rooms, planning for 20% growth and
leveraging an efficient Telework policy that allows for 20% to be
working remotely. We do not recommend the expansion of City
Hall in order to address workplace overcrowding at this time.
We recommend a full interior renovation to make better use of
the interior space.

c. Parking
•Currently there are 84 parking spaces
adjacent to City Hall & Community Hall;
Zoning Code requires 85.
•Parking demand studies show that Civic
Center is deficient by approximately 185
parking spaces
•Parking requirements in the zoning chapter
of the municipal code show that Civic
Center is deficient by approximately 217
parking spaces
•A renovated City Hall without an expansion
does not require additional parking spaces.
•The addition of strategic surface parking
spaces is a cost-effective improvement.
2022 Civic Center Parking status
Proposed Parking Improvements
Summary:
Since the pandemic has disrupted the parking patterns at Civic
Center, it is difficult to ascertain the present and future parking
needs at Civic Center. Assuming the City Hall building will not
be expanding its footprint, we recommend the immediate
implementation of new surface parking along the rear of
Community Hall (+16 spaces) , and plan for future surface
parking along the north edge of Library field (+21 spaces,
approximately).

Hello City Council,
Are you aware of the extent of impact caused by city staff intent to
propose redevelopment at Cupertino Sports Center?
Are you aware that any disruption of CSC will lead to a disruption of
the tennis program at 3 schools, namely, Kennedy Middle, Monta
Vista High and Mitty?
Are you aware that Monta Vista High has a nationally ranked tennis
program and your actions may impact the future of the tennis
program at Kennedy and Monta Vista High?
Has CUSD, FUHSD and Mitty been consulted or informed?
Have the principals of Kennedy, Monta Vista and Mitty been
consulted or informed?
Was city staff aware of this before they gave a consultant the green
light to look into CSC feasibility? Was the consultant aware of this?
Disrupting tennis programs at the Cupertino neighborhood schools
destroys the college dreams of generations of Cupertino kids. Kids
that dreamt a vision and are executing to a goal of a path to college
via a tennis program cannot now re-architect their path to college due
to Cupertino city’s desire to prioritize a city hall over city’s sports
program.
Here are more details as I understand it in case you were unaware.
Kennedy Middle School - the school team has been using CSC's
courts since 2014. KMS tennis team gets coaching and practice time
on CSC courts. Loss of CSC disrupts the KMS tennis program.
Monta Vista High - CSC plays a crucial role as a feeding program to
Monta Vista's nationally ranked tennis team. Closing the Cupertino
Sports center will not only impact Kennedy middle school tennis
program, but the ability for Monta Vista to continue to get local
juniors (who are nationally ranked) to play at local top level high
schools and move on to playing in college. The pipeline of top level
tennis players into Monta Vista High will be affected as Kennedy is a
main feeder school into MVHS.
Mitty High School - since 2009, the high school and CSC have had
an agreement to use CSC coaching staff and CSC courts for their
boys and girls programs. Taking this away will provide a huge
obstacle for Mitty high school to secure courts for their teams. CSC is
an integral part of the success of Mitty’s tennis program success.
If you care about the impact to the tennis program at Kennedy, Mitty
and the feeder impact into Monta Vista then you need to EXCLUDE
the Cupertino Sports Center from any redevelopment plans. We don’t
want a shiny new sports center. We don’t want you to do anything at
the sports center.
Please. Let’s not play word games with us residents while our
Cupertino kids sports programs, path to college are at stake.
We don’t want to have to hear your words that it is not closing, it will
be a new sports center, it will offer better programs etc. No. We want
you to leave CSC as is. It is just fine without any of your plans to
give us something better. We don’t need it.
What we DO want is no disruption to CSC. Do not approve any
conceptual plan that includes Cupertino Sports Center.
Just please leave CSC alone as is. We don’t want construction at
CSC. We don’t want a city hall or anything else at CSC. Leave CSC
out of your development plans. Public city owned lands used to build
up sports skills for generations of Cupertino kids are not up for
sacrifice in order to meet your desire for a new city hall.
And no we don’t want you spending 100s of 1000s of dollars on
consultants writing conceptual plans for a sports center that we don’t
want any changes at. Please don’t waste our taxpayer dollars on
consultant throwaway work.

Please note that you need to send notifications to all CSC members about any plans and events
with regard to CSC project discussions. Thanks to Lifetime, I got a notification. But the
majority of CSC members are not Lifetime members.
A few facts:
- The tennis courts are in full utilization now, even if members have to pay. So any plans must
not reduce the number of tennis courts.
- Many kids are taking lessons at CSC, covering tennis and other ball games as well,
basketball, badminton, pickle ball, squash...

Dear Mayor Wei, Vice-Mayor Mohan and City Council,
I am writing to you today to urge you to REJECT the city staff recommendation to move forward with a conceptual
plan for redevelopment of Cupertino Sports Center. Say NO to redevelopment of Cupertino Sports Center. Reject
the barter of Cupertino Sports Center for a city hall and redevelopment.
Cupertino Sports Center is a home away from home for 1000s of residents. Both adults and kids enjoy the facility
daily. Generations of residents have spent countless hours learning sports skills at CSC. Kids are taught from an
early age and they go onto sports programs at our middle schools, high schools and go onto college sports teams. It
all starts at the Cupertino Sports Center.
Say NO to replacing our kids path to sports skills in return for a shiny new city hall or other redevelopment at CSC.
We don’t want your response saying it is not closing but you will build a new better sports center. Or saying it is
still early stage. Or saying you will build a better sports center elsewhere. We don’t want any of those. Any of those
options mean the sports center closes for weeks, months, years. We don’t want the sports center closed for weeks,
months or years. It disrupts the schedules and lives of 1000s of residents including 100s of kids.
The sports center is fully utilized and self sustaining. It is gone to tennis programs for Kennedy Middle, Mitty High
and Kennedy Middle is a feeder into Monta Vista High tennis teams. By disrupting the Sports Center you Will be
impacting 100s of kids whose dreams of making it to college on a tennis scholarship will be shattered. Say NO to a
city hall that is built on shattering the dreams of Cupertino kids and their path to college admissions.
We put our faith in you when we voted for you all. Our family, our neighborhoods and our city residents want to see
you live up to the promise you made to us during your campaigns. Put resident interests ahead of a shiny new city
hall and redevelopment interests.
Say NO to redevelopment of Cupertino Sports Center. Stop wasteful spending on consultants who are spending on
potential conceptual plans for Cupertino Sports Center. Just leave the Cupertino Sports Center alone as it is. No
conceptual plans, no closures, no construction, no disruption to the Cupertino Sports Center.

Dear City Councilors,
We have been members of CSC for more than 10 years and glad that we have CSC for
exercise classes to enhance our physical and mental well being.
The recent discussion about the future of CSC does bring a big concern in our household
(kids, teenagers, working parents, middle agers and seniors). We are aware of the other
factors that led to the start of this CSC re-development discussion. Yet we do want to point
to the invaluable contribution of CSC to us and our community, when both physical and
mental well being have been national issues. On the financial side, the healthcare savings
from the preventive exercises (tennis, dance, yoga, machine training etc ) for the Cupertino
community would surely outweigh the cash contribution to Cupertino from the redevelopment
project.
As elected officials, I am sure you will do what is best for us. And thank you all for making
Cupertino a city we can be proud of and are happy living in.
Sincerely,
Lisa Lau

City Council Members of Cupertino:
I am a long time resident of Cupertino. I was shocked and dismayed to learn just yesterday while leaving my yoga
class at the Sports Center that you are thinking of demolishing the Cupertino Sports Center.
I have been coming there to exercise with my friends, most of whom are seniors like me, several days a week for my
physical and emotional well-being for many, many years. I would like to continue as long as I am able. There are
no other affordable options for me in this area.
Please do not take the Sports Center away .

There have been lots of rumblings and concerns over the proposal to close the Sports Center. What is equally
concerning is the secrecy surrounding this proposal. Most of us found out only recently with very little detail. Sports
Center staff has apparently been instructed to either not get involved or stay mute and searching the City Council
website for information is frustrating at best. I suspect more information would be available in some of the closed
sessions where minutes are not available.
I would have hoped that members of CSC would have been informed in a more open, transparent form of
communication. We are all paying members. The Sports Center is a benefit to the community and an asset to the
city. My husband and I have been members for many years. We have made many friends and met many interesting
people at the center. We attend fitness classes regularly.
Like many of the folks in these classes, we value CSC and appreciate the facility and folks that work there. CSC is
something Cupertino should be very proud of. Maybe some of the Council members should start coming to the
sports center to better appreciate the facility and its importance to the community.
Please don’t close the facility!

Dear Council members:
I am writing to urge you NOT to consider the Sports center as part of the partnership option for the construction of
a new City Hall Facility, scheduled for consideration by council on October 17.
I am a 25 years resident of Cupertino and a member of the Cupertino Sports center. The facilities at the Sports
Center have been widely used by our residents for fitnesses , tennis, badminton, volleyballs, dancing classes , teen
meetings plus other recreational enhancement. I go to the Sports center every day and enjoy using the facilities.
Our residents take pride in these facilities as the Sports center is the only city facility that opens all year round and is
in close proximity to transportation. We consider it as “ Jewel of Cupertino"
As I recall, the city has spent more than $4 million in the past 15 years, $2.5 Million to bring it to ADA compliance
and additional fundings to replace the swimming pool with new tennis courts and other improvements. It will be a
big waste of tax payer money to demolish these facilities for future development. Personally, I do not see any
necessity to expand the city hall as Cupertino is already built out and any future developments can be contracted out
on an as needed basis. Furthermore, city can innovate city owned buildings such as Torre property, Stockelmaier
property, Blue Pheasant Restaurant, single family residences at Stevens Creek near the Blue Pheasant and at Byrne
Avenue among others.
While the City Council is elected by our our residents to make decisions on behalf of our residents, I strong urge
the City Council to put measures on the ballots to allow our residents to make such decisions should fiscal impact in
excess of $5 millions similar to the measure City took for the construction of the new library.
By this letter, I request a meeting with council members to discuss this agenda item further.
Thank you for your consideration

CAUTION: This email originated from outside of the organization. Do not click links or open attachments unless you

Hello City Council,
Are you aware of the extent of impact caused by city staff intent to propose redevelopment at
Cupertino Sports Center?
Are you aware that any disruption of CSC will lead to a disruption of the tennis program at 3
schools, namely, Kennedy Middle, Monta Vista High and Mitty?
Are you aware that Monta Vista High has a nationally ranked tennis program and your actions
may impact the future of the tennis program at Kennedy and Monta Vista High?
Has CUSD, FUHSD and Mitty been consulted or informed?
Have the principals of Kennedy, Monta Vista and Mitty been consulted or informed?
Was city staff aware of this before they gave a consultant the green light to look into CSC
feasibility? Was the consultant aware of this?
Disrupting tennis programs at the Cupertino neighborhood schools destroys the college
dreams of generations of Cupertino kids. Kids that dreamt a vision and are executing to a goal
of a path to college via a tennis program cannot now re-architect their path to college due to
Cupertino city’s desire to prioritize a city hall over city’s sports program.
Here are more details as I understand it in case you were unaware.
Kennedy Middle School - the school team has been using CSC's courts since 2014. KMS
tennis team gets coaching and practice time on CSC courts. Loss of CSC disrupts the KMS
tennis program.
Monta Vista High - CSC plays a crucial role as a feeding program to Monta Vista's nationally
ranked tennis team. Closing the Cupertino Sports center will not only impact Kennedy middle
school tennis program, but the ability for Monta Vista to continue to get local juniors (who are
nationally ranked) to play at local top level high schools and move on to playing in college.
The pipeline of top level tennis players into Monta Vista High will be affected as Kennedy is a
main feeder school into MVHS.
Mitty High School - since 2009, the high school and CSC have had an agreement to use CSC
coaching staff and CSC courts for their boys and girls programs. Taking this away will
provide a huge obstacle for Mitty high school to secure courts for their teams. CSC is an
integral part of the success of Mitty’s tennis program success.
If you care about the impact to the tennis program at Kennedy, Mitty and the feeder impact
into Monta Vista then you need to EXCLUDE the Cupertino Sports Center from any
redevelopment plans. We don’t want a shiny new sports center. We don’t want you to do
anything at the sports center.
Please. Let’s not play word games with us residents while our Cupertino kids sports programs,
path to college are at stake.
We don’t want to have to hear your words that it is not closing, it will be a new sports center,
it will offer better programs etc. No. We want you to leave CSC as is. It is just fine without
any of your plans to give us something better. We don’t need it.
What we DO want is no disruption to CSC. Do not approve any conceptual plan that includes
Cupertino Sports Center.
Just please leave CSC alone as is. We don’t want construction at CSC. We don’t want a city
hall or anything else at CSC. Leave CSC out of your development plans. Public city owned
lands used to build up sports skills for generations of Cupertino kids are not up for sacrifice in
order to meet your desire for a new city hall.
And no we don’t want you spending 100s of 1000s of dollars on consultants writing
conceptual plans for a sports center that we don’t want any changes at. Please don’t waste our
taxpayer dollars on consultant throwaway work.
Thanks,

Hi,
Please provide the history for how Agenda Item 7 came to be and how the scope of the contract
with Cumming came to be. Who requested the Cumming scope of work, staff or a
councilmember(s); who made the Recommended Action, staff or a councilmember(s)?
This is important because we have received an overwhelming response and I do not understand
how this came to be.
Here is the Staff Recommended Action to Council:
“Recommended Action
Direct staff to pursue conceptual development of a mixed used Public Private Partnership for City
Hall and the Sports Center properties.”
The inclusion of the Sports Center was a surprise to me, along with consideration of City Hall for things
like housing. Please note what was requested from City Council regarding City Hall which I have
quoted below. I have done a little research to comprehend how this Tuesday’s agenda item came to be,
as I find it unexpected.
As you may know I served on the City Hall Subcommittee with Councilmember Willey and the Staff
recommendation to us, which we relayed to the whole Council, and they approved, was to do a full
interior remodel, relocate the emergency operations center which was occupying the entire old council
chambers in City Hall, to the recently purchased Torre Annex building. That City Hall remodel was
approximately $27 M and we have had a decline in the number of staff due to the CDTFA audit revenue
reductions. The proposal the Council suggested below, would cost about $100M and require an
additional parking garage.
The February 21, 2023 City Council Special Meeting minutes reflect the following:
“Fruen moved and Wei seconded:
1. That staff suspend all work on the City Hall renovation plan considered at the City
Council meeting of November 15, 2022, not including the City Hall Annex project.
2. That staff, instead, return to Council with options for a new city hall and civic center up
to approximately 80,000 square feet including flexible events programming space(s) suitable for
events hosting up to 500 people and based primarily upon options previously provided with the
City Council at its meeting on November 15, 2022, with alternatives for such flexible events
programming space at other cityowned locations, to be considered as part of the City Council's
March 7 consideration of the Capital Improvement Program.
Moore moved and Chao seconded a substitute motion to re-affirm the direction previously
provided for the City Hall Renovation Project. The substitute motion failed with Moore and Chao
voting yes.
Fruen' s main motion carried with Chao and Moore voting no.”

Dear Council,
The Sports Center is vital to our city.
22 years ago I led the campaign for the city to purchase the Sports Center. We
Carried a petition that successfully convinced the then council to spend $7M for the purchase. It was
very good investment. The Sports Center is a vital element for the health of our citizens. It is an
important element that differentiates our City from most of the surrounding cities. Cupertino is an
exceptional place to live because all of parts of our Parks and Recreation department are outstanding.
Don’t do anything to diminish this important department.

Dear Cupertino City Council,
I am writing to express my strong opposition to the proposed closure of the Cupertino
Sports Center. The Sports Center is a vital part of our community, and its closure
would have a devastating impact on thousands of people.
The Sports Center is used by people of all ages and abilities, from young children to
seniors. It offers a wide variety of activities, including tennis, badminton, ping pong,
gym, personal training, basketball, pickleball, chess, and racketball. The Sports
Center is also home to a number of competitive sports leagues, which provide
opportunities for people of all skill levels to compete and have fun.
The Sports Center is also a revenue-generating asset for the city. Patrons pay an
annual or monthly membership fee, and the Sports Center also leases court time to
Lifetime, which conducts kids' lessons.
I urge you to oppose the inclusion of the Cupertino Sports Center in agenda item 7
and to reject any city staff recommendations to fund a conceptual plan involving the
Cupertino Sports Center.
Here are some specific reasons why the closure of the Cupertino Sports Center
would be a mistake:
The Sports Center is a vital part of our community's health and well-being. It
provides a place for people of all ages and abilities to get exercise and have
fun.
The Sports Center is a hub for social activity and community building. It is a
place where people from all walks of life come together to compete, learn, and
socialize.
The Sports Center is a revenue-generating asset for the city. It pays for itself
through membership fees and court rentals.
Closing the Sports Center would be a betrayal of the public trust. The city has a
responsibility to maintain its public facilities, including the Sports Center.
I urge you to vote to keep the Cupertino Sports Center open. It is a vital part of our
community, and it deserves to be protected.

Dear City Council members,
As a longtime resident of Cupertino (own our home since 1987) and a member of the
Cupertino Sports Center (since 2004), I was surprised and dismayed to see the proposal to
consider some form or public-private partnership to build a new City Hall and potentially use
the CSC property for this purpose.
The cost for a new City Hall is extremely high, and I don't think that using the Sports Center as
a part of this process is a good way to move forward. As a tax-paying resident, I have serious
concerns about this path. As a sports club tennis player, I have benefited from having a club in
our city where we can gather and participate in many activities. It and the library are the two
places where I utilize the facilities. I am not engaged at the Senior Center nor Quinlan Center.
I do not support this change. I propose that the Council reevaluate the plans to build an
expensive City Hall at this time. The justification for such a need isn't clear to me as a
resident. The Sports Center is an important part of my exercise and social life. I appreciate
having it and continue to be a fee-paying member every year. It serves a wide range of ages in
the community, from the young to the senior community.

Dear Cupertino City Council
Cupertino Sports center is a lifeline for people like us who live in this city and want to use a gym and exercise and
play tennis. I like our CSC much better than the Crunch Fitness center even though the membership is cheaper there.
What kind of redevelopment do you want to do there ? Unless you can relocate the facility to another spot in
Cupertino, we cannot afford to lose it.
You did the same with Memorial Park. It first sat empty concrete for years. Then it got dug up. We all filled the
survey with suggestions on what to be done. But, what got done ? Just green lawns !! The current green lawns are
drying up in patches and now you need to maintain more lawns. What was the use of the survey by the residents ?

Dear Sirs/Madams,
I have been a member of CSC and used the facility for more than 20 years. I play tennis with a group

CSC, at its current setting and as a community facility, is a very important integral part of many like
me.
Please be respectful to all members of CSC. Converting such facility to any other purposes is totally
unacceptable. It is a well-run center that not only serves the members, but also many kids and

Dear Council,...
I really don't understand the logic of considering closing Cupertino Sports Center (CSC) in favor of
relocating City Hall. Financially, it makes no sense when $27M will retrofit the current city hall but $80M
(and it will likely go higher) is required for the new build.
CSC offers a good product and is profitably run. Membership is strong, both young and old, using the
exercise equipment, taking exercise classes, playing tennis and playing pickleball. The demand is so
strong that it can be tough at certain times of the day and days of the week to get a tennis court, for
example. And consider the kids tennis program that thrives especially during summer months, using 8
courts full of kids learning how to play tennis and many of them will come back as adults and join CSC
too.
There are many loyal, long term customers as members of CSC and sports matter; it keeps people
healthy and active, while allowing long term friendships to blossom.

Dear Council Members,
I am writing to plead with you to NOT eliminate Cupertino Sports Center. This campus
serves a community of children, adults, and seniors in many capacities. We take exercise
classes, use the wonderful gym equipment, play tennis, pickleball, badminton, racquet ball,
and socialize with friends. The center is always a hive of activities and members are there at
all hours during business hours.
I started playing tennis when my husband was ill with cancer. It was a kind of therapy for me
during the difficult two years of his illness. After his death, I became a full member of CSC
and met many people through tennis. And many of them became very close friends. I play
about 5 times a week; CSC is not just a place for physical activity but is also a place where I
meet friends so as not to be isolated at home.
Since I spend so much time at CSC; I also shop, buy groceries, get take-out, get clothes dry-
cleaned, all in the vicinity of that area. And I am certain I am not the only person who
patronize all the businesses there.
Please keep Cupertino Sports Center the way it is. All the many upgrades and retrofits

Dear City Council,
PLEASE DO NOT put housing on our public land that contains City Hall, Community Hall,
Civic Center, Sports Center, etc. Our Civic Center area is the heart of our city government. It
is where the public comes to attend meetings. The Cupertino Library uses Community Hall.
As density increases, our city services will need to increase and you cannot expand once you
put housing on the land! You loose all flexibility!
What you can do is stop the pursuit for a “new over the top” city hall. Return to the remodel
plan. Continue the plan to move the EOC to the Torre Ave site. Stop wasting money the city
does not have on elaborate studies and consultants! Do not convert these areas to mixed use!
We will NEVER get it back!
Questions:
1-Who came up with housing on our public land?
It was not directed by Council! It was not ever discussed in public!
2-What exact areas are considered part of the “Civic Center”? Is it City Hall? Community
Hall? Cupertino Library? Library Field? The plaza area? Or is it all of it?
3-How did the Sports Center get roped into this “new over the top” city hall project?
Please scale back and STOP the movement towards mixed use on our public land. Do not
make the legacy of this Council be that you put Cupertino up for sale to the highest bidder.
Sincerely,
Peggy Griffin
P.S. Below is the contract signed by staff. Look at the Scope of Work! Someone decided to
spend public funds looking into mixed use on public land without even asking Council! This

sites, identified as:
IMMEDIATE SITES
A.City Hall and Future Annex
Address: 10300 / 10455 Torres Avenue
Flexible use as future City Hall, combined
public/private use such as City Hall and housing, or all
private use as housing or BMR housing.
B.Sports Center
21111 Stevens Creek Boulevard
Flexible use with some public amenities retained.
Potential redevelopment with residential and/or
commercial with existing uses.
OTHER SITES

Continued open space or golf use.
E. Service Center
10555 Mary Avenue
Redevelopment opportunity to consider.
A key objective is to create an economically sustainable project that may incorporate revenue generating
uses in addition to required City functions. The Concord Group, as a consultant to Cumming, can
provide an array of services to facilitate optimization of the properties and the fulfillment of the projects
economic and community service goals.
The initial focus will be a “go\no-go” scope leading to preliminary recommendation for the City Hall and
Sports Center sites. We will determine in the “go\no-go” phase of work if there are market and
financially viable opportunities for public/private development.
Subsequently, City Council may authorize more detailed programming and financing plans on these and
the other sites identified above.
Our proposed phases reflect our scope of work based on our understanding of the City’s prioritized needs:
1. Cost neutral solution
2. Renovated/replaced City Hall with incorporated public space
3. Renovate/replace aging public facilities
4. Public service elements on all properties currently providing public services
5. BMR housing
Therefore, the proposed scope of work is anticipated to include the following phases and services that proceeds
from analysis through implementation.
Scope of Work
GO/NO-GO ASSESSMENT FOR CITY HALL AND SPORTS CENTER SITES
A.Initial Market Reconnaissance and Program Opportunities
identify the menu of residential product types (market-rate and BMR) compatible with civic uses that
are marketable with accompanying top line product positioning and value estimates.
Identify housing development options based on market demand, rent levels (market and BMR), unit
types and mix, and the City’s program and services required on each parcel.
Prepare preliminary financial analyses to determine revenues and value generated by private uses that
can be used to offset development and operating costs associated with public uses.

Scope of Work
7.Create preliminary City Hall Site Plan by
evaluating potential parcels/lots identified on
the site not needed to support civic uses that
can be sold, offered for long-term lease for
private revenue producing uses and
placemaking opportunities that can: (i) create a
source of funds to offset costs associated with
new public facilities. further catalyze desired
commercial or mixed-use development nearby;
and (ii) further catalyze desired commercial or
mixed-use development nearby;
8.In this Phase, we will participate in Working
Session 2 to debrief on modifications to Phase 1
conclusions and present the analytical results
from Phase 2.
9.Following the working session, and
incorporating its discussions, we will present our
findings, conclusions, and recommended
actions in a summary document suitable for
internal use, as well as for presentation to third
parties, such as public stakeholders, potential
investors, etc.
B. Scenario Programming: City Hall Focus (Continued)
We will work with City officials to develop a specific Stakeholder Strategy tailored to meet the project’s
needs. For purposes of our scope, we have included three of the six potential activities to inform, engage,
and gather input from the identified stakeholders throughout the development of redevelopment option:
a.Stakeholder Interviews - We can conduct interviews with key stakeholders in the community to gather
input on assets in the area and potential opportunities to create catalytic development opportunities
that support needed civic uses.
b.Focus Groups - We can lead focus group meetings to get targeted input on the development plan effort
or as a way to collect feedback on the draft vision particularly with individuals that may not participate in
the stakeholder interviews or other meetings along with the real estate development community.
c.Public Open Houses - We can hold public meetings that allow the community to stop- by during a
defined time period and ask questions about development options and the process.
d.Charrette/Community Workshop - We could conduct a half to full day workshop focused on the
development plan vision and establishment of values. This workshop could include: an evening event;
small group workshop exercises; open studio hours for the consultant team to work and the public is
invited to stop by and provide input; and a presentation by the consultant team on the outcomes of the
workshop.
e.Pop-Up Events - We could conduct pop-up events that bring activities and information to engage the
community where they are. Such events would be staged in busy locations. Pop-up events could be
conducted to gather input on the development vision.
f.Web -based Outreach - We can develop a project-specific web page for use on the City website to project
updates, meeting notifications, and collect any desired survey data to help guide the planning process.
C. Stakeholder Engagement (Optional)
Scope of Work
1.Evaluate various project delivery approaches to achieve schedule, quality of construction, and reduced costs
for public facilities (City Hall, fire station), including Design-Bid-Build, Design-Build, Progressive Design-Build,
GC/CM, 63-30 financing, and other available delivery approaches authorized by State law.
2.Identify potential philanthropic contributions toward civic facilities and for any below market housing that
may be included on the site (e.g., Apple Affordable Housing Fund)
3.Recommend project delivery and funding strategy approach for new City Hall along with catalyst
development projects.
4.Provide the following marketing, recruitment, and development agreement negotiation services:
a.Due Diligence Check List. We will identify a list of due diligence that should be completed as part of
the proposed public and private development. We can also contract directly and manage these
services for an additional fee as needed or desired. The reports identified by the checklist would
ideally be prepared prior to the issuance of a Development Offering or Developer RFQ/RFP for the
City Hall site.
I.This list may include survey, title report, environmental report (Phase 1 and/or 2),
geotechnical studies, environmental checklist, appraisal, and traffic impact analysis. Often
such documents are provided to developers who register as interested parties during the
Development Offering, RFQ/RFP process.
b.Draft Project Development Schedule. A dynamic document (excel, Microsoft Project, or other
common file type) that shows the expected major phases extending from any City development plan
for its Civic Center property to groundbreaking for multiple phases of development.
I.This will be a conceptual schedule since the timing and duration of future events is by
nature uncertain. While actual timing will almost certainly differ from forecast timing, this is
a valuable tool that can help stakeholders understand a reasonable schedule of events.
c.Draft Term Sheet. A draft term sheet will be prepared including the proposed/ recommended terms
of the development transaction for the available public land proposed to be sold or leased, including
transaction/purchase price, developer requirements (e.g., construction of public facilities, certain
commercial or mix-use development, shared parking, etc.), and expected roles and responsibilities
for all parties.
I.The purpose of a draft term sheet is to support future discussions and negotiations with
potential developers, and to ensure expectations are achieved. Some or many expected
deal points may also be included in Development Offering or RFQ/RFP documents.
D. Implementation Strategies & Development Recruitment
Scope of Work
d.Development Recruitment. All marketing and solicitation materials will be prepared to recruit the
desired development. We will use either a Development Offering process or a two-step process
of a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) and Request for Proposal (RFP) to recruit and create a highly
competitive selection process. A scoring and evaluation system will also be created to assist in the
selection of a preferred development and team. Below are some key Development Recruitment
elements:
I.Contact potential developers, brokers, and other and create buzz around the
development opportunity;
II.Manage review and developer submittal ranking process
III.Manage stakeholder meetings to discuss and/or rank submittals
IV.Manage interviews with short-list of developers
V.Manage meeting(s) to discuss and select preferred development team
D. Implementation Strategies & Development Recruitment
continued)
1.Negotiate preliminary deal terms (Letter of Intent or Memorandum of Understanding) with preferred
developer/tenants(s) and negotiate and manage execution of purchase and sale/lease/development
agreement or other P3 agreement with the preferred developer. Assist with any closing conditions
leading to construction.
a.Every purchase and sale or lease and development agreement of public property is an
opportunity to develop a public-private partnership achieving far greater results than what can
organically occur in the marketplace
E. Developer Negotiation/Transaction Closing
Scope of Work
1.Provide GC and Consultant Procurement Management, Design Management, Construction Management
Closeout services for the properties listed, as required by the City of Cupertino.
G. Future Services
1.We will work with City officials to develop an
RFP for Architectural Services that is tailored to
meet the Phase 1 Architectural needs. For
purposes of our scope, we have included
potential activities:
1.Architect Procurement:
2.We will leverage our industry
connections to engage potential
Architectural firms with similar industry
experience for City governments
3.Develop a Scope of Services for City
review and confirmation
4.Develop Evaluation Criteria for City
review and confirmation
5.Receive and level proposals
6.Facilitate interviews with Architect
finalists
7.Recommend award of contract
8.Negotiate form of agreement with City
and Architect’s legal counsel
2.Architect Management:
1.Oversee Architect during all Phases
F. Architect Procurement and Management (Optional)
Fee Proposal
Time and Fee Schedule

Hello City Council,
I hope this email finds you well. I am writing to you today as a concerned resident of
Cupertino, deeply troubled by recent discussions regarding the potential closure of the
Cupertino Sports Center, a vital community resource that has been an integral part of our city
for many years.
The Cupertino Sports Center is not just a facility; it is a cornerstone of our community,
providing affordable access to a wide range of fitness and recreational activities, including gym
facilities, tennis, basketball, badminton, and much more. This center has not only been
instrumental in promoting physical health but has also served as a place for social interaction,
fostering friendships and building a strong sense of community.
For me, I have made wonderful new friends because of CSC. It has become an essential part of
my life. contributing significantly to the well-being and overall quality of life in our new
city. The potential closure of the Cupertino Sports Center would not only deprive our residents
of a place to stay physically active but also disrupt the opportunity for friendships.
I understand the challenges the city might be facing, but I urge you to consider alternative
solutions and explore all available options to keep the Cupertino Sports Center operational.
I kindly request that you and your fellow council members take our concerns into account and
consider the broader implications of closing such a vital community resource.
Thank you for your attention to this critical issue. We look forward to your prompt response
and are ready to collaborate with you to ensure the Cupertino Sports Center remains a
thriving part of our beloved city.
Best,
Jessica

Dear Mayor and Council Members,
I recently became aware of plans being floated to redevelop the Cupertino Sports Center as a
mixed facility. As a resident of Cupertino and a long time members of the Sports Center, I
object to this planning.
- The sports center is a home for many people, children and adults to play and learn together.
- I have personally gone through many stressful times in my 65 years on this planet, and the
Sports Center has been a constant source of sanity, friendship, kindness, and recreation.
- I understand the need for housing. Yet paradoxically the number of households according to
the reports, are predicted to decline in Cupertino.
- Spending $27.5M on City Hall is a good deal.
- Nothing in the report suggests why we need a $80M complex with a new civic arts center.
There are many high schools and De Anza college facilities that can be used for this and they
have plenty of parking. This should be tabled until such time as the finances are in order.
- The report claims CSC is underutilized. What is the evidence for this? How is utilization
defined? The report says nothing about revenue or expenses of the sports center.
- The sports center has many non-Cupertino members whose membership fees
benefit Cupertino.
- Any plan to destroy CSC should account for the recreational impact that would have on our
community.. If you build more housing, you'll need more places for recreation, not less.
- There is nothing stated in the plan about how or when the capacity of CSC (tennis,
pickleball, basketball, badminton, table tennis, racquetball) and the youth center would be
replaced.
- It is a safe place for adults and children to play together (read parents and their children too).
- The sports center was recently renovated with structural changes for earthquake safety and
new windscreens.
I cannot attend Tuesday due to a business trip to the east coast. I wish I could be there to make
a little noise and shout out a "Here, here!". But others will be, and they will be speaking for
me as well.
I hope you take my words to heart and give weight to my opinions and questions above.

CAUTION: This email originated from outside of the organization. Do not click links or open attachments unless you

Dear City Council of Cupertino,
I hope this letter finds you well. I am writing to express my strong concerns regarding the proposed plan to replace the Cupertino Sport Center with a city hall. While I understand the importance of infrastructure development and the need for civic facilities, I firmly believe that the Cupertino Sport Center is an invaluable resource for our community, especially for the youth and adults who use it for various recreational and social activities.
The Cupertino Sport Center has been an essential part of our community for many years, providing a space where residents of all ages can engage in physical activities, learn new skills, socialize, and build lasting friendships. Cupertino Sports Center serves as a hub for tennis enthusiasts in Cupertino. Here are some key reasons why the Cupertino Sport Center must be preserved:
1. Recreational Opportunities: The tennis courts at Cupertino Sport Center offer a safe and welcoming environment for people of all ages to enjoy the sport. Whether it's casual games, competitive matches or tennis lessons, these facilities are a vital outlet for physical activity.
2. Affordable Lessons: The Sport Center provides affordable tennis lessons for children and adults. These lessons help individuals learn and improve their skills while fostering a sense of discipline and sportsmanship.
3. Social Interaction: The Sport Center promotes social interaction among our residents. Players often develop friendships, support networks, and a strong sense of community that extends beyond the tennis courts.
4. Youth Development: The Sport Center is crucial for the development of our youth. It provides a positive and constructive outlet for their energy and teaches them essential life skills like perseverance and fair play.
I am not against the idea of a city hall, but I believe that our community's cultural and recreational resources should be preserved and enhanced rather than sacrificed. With thoughtful planning, it may be possible to find alternative locations or solutions that can accommodate the city hall without sacrificing the Cupertino Sport Center. Such an approach would ensure that we continue to offer our residents a place to pursue their passion for tennis and enjoy the many benefits that the Sport Center provides.
I kindly request that the City Council reconsider the decision to replace the Cupertino Sport Center and explore alternative options to meet the growing civic needs while preserving our cherished recreational and social hub. Our community's well-being and sense of togetherness depend on maintaining such vital facilities.
Thank you for your time and consideration. I hope that, together, we can find a solution that accommodates the needs of our community while preserving our valued Cupertino Sport Center.

Greetings to all city council,
I love city of Cupertino because I have found over the years that Cupertino City runs the city
with their residents in mind: from looking out for the communities when one of the neighbors
is doing a rebuilding/remodeling, developing the Main Street, etc., to the recreational activities
for all ages.
I see children of all ages walking happily in CSC parking to their after school tennis clinics,
not just during schools; any holiday breaks. The fitness programs are well liked by everyone.
My friends in Sunnyvale love their Sunnyvale tennis club but they all wish that club would
include a fitness room like CSC.
CSC is a jewel in the Bay Area; it provides mental and physical well-being for all ages. City
council should talk about how to improve the programs and not eliminate the facility. Please
do keep in mind, once a land is sold, the city will forever lose opportunities to enrich the
residents’ lives. It’s always easy to sell. However, if a city gives in to the profit seeking

I have been so pleased that Cupertino offers the Recreation Center to the community. It is so inclusive of all ages—I
see members that are elderly, children and teens and adults. It really runs the gamut and that is so hard to find in
Silicon Valley these days. It is also reasonably priced which is a treasure for many of us in this overpriced market—
our options are few. Most of the sports clubs are owned by chains and are very expensive while the country clubs
are catering to the tech industry professionals. There are few places for the average local residents to enjoy. When I
arrived in this community 25 years ago that was not the case, but sadly today it is the case.
If you raze the Community Center to build more commercial buildings or apartment buildings you will take a
valuable piece of everyday life away from thousands of people and this is truly a tragedy. For such an affluent city,
it seems like quality of life is being sacrificed for more money for real estate developers.

Dear City Council Members,
I am appalled and outraged that the City of Cupertino is even considering a proposal
to demolish the Sports Center in favor of a new City Hall + housing. The Sports
Center is a beautiful and unique facility, where people of all ages and incomes gather
to play tennis (and various other sports, including lessons where kids have the
opportunity to get exposure to and learn a recreational activity that they can enjoy for
a lifetime). It would be tragic to destroy this treasure that provides such healthy
recreational outlets for so many.

Dear Cupertino City Council,
My name is George Mattinger. My family has been living in Cupertino since 1998 and we
have enjoyed the services and facilities provided by the City of Cupertino.
I have long felt that one of the most compelling of those facilities is the unique Cupertino
Sports Center. The Sports Center provides services to residents (and non-residents) from pre-
school age to senior citizens. The value of the Sports Center to the community can easily be
seen by its popularity. Tennis and pickleball courts are fully booked every evening, and many
of the course and camp offerings fill up almost immediately.
I recently heard the news that the city is considering a proposal with an option to eliminate the
Cupertino Sports Center. This is extremely alarming. As more and more studies come out
confirming the need for exercise and positive social interactions (the Sports Center provides
both) for a long and healthy life, why would anyone on the council be inclined to think that
depriving the city of this resource is going to be a benefit for the population?
I consider the Cupertino Sports Center as one of the key facilities provided by the city. I
strongly object to any proposal to eliminate the Cupertino Sports Center. Please consider
other alternatives in the city's new plan.
Thank you,
George Mattinger

This letter supplements the one I sent you on Friday.
Dear Cupertino City Council Members,
When I heard yesterday that the city is considering converting the Sports Center into a muti-use location for a new
City Hall and apartments as one of several options, I was dismayed. I led the effort to convince the City to purchase
the Sports center more than 20 years ago and it has been a very good purchase. It is important for a city such as
Cupertino to have such a facility. It provides infrastructure for tennis, ping-pong, pickel ball, racquetball,
basketball, yoga, weight training, and exercise on a variety of machines for ~500* members who pay an average of
$450* per year for the privileges. In addition, more than 1000* youths have been enrolled in tennis lessons there
each year.
After stewing over the news, I called Ms. Jean Bedord to find out why the City would consider such terrible action.
Se explained that the City has had to refund a lot of tax money it collected from Apple because of a new state law
and that it needs to replace the inadequate City Hall. Furthermore, the City does not have appropriate property on
which to place the new City Hall. So, finding itself in such a set of circumstances it began considering alternatives,
one of which involves replacement of the Sports Center with the City Hall and ~55 rental apartments.
What the City does not seem to realize is that the Sports Center is one of many parks in the City. It is probably the
3rd most used of these following Creekside and Memorial. The hugh and cry from destruction of the Sports Center
would be huge. The main difference between the Sports Center and other Parks is that it pays its own way. Fees
equal or exceed operating expenses.
So, I began searching for a more attractive alternative. I called an authoritative official of Sand Hill Properties and
explained the City’s dilemma and asked if his company would consider building the required City Hall on the
Vallco property. He said it would be possible, but in order to finance the construction of commercial space at the
size needed by the City a reasonable multi-year lease would be required. Depending on the exact size requirement
and the City’s specifications, it could be delivered as a standalone built-to-suit building or as part of a larger multi-
use building.
I see multiple advantages to this alternative. No up-front money would be required as Lease fees might not be
charged until the new City Hall would be occupied. Furthermore, those fees could be accounted for as operating
expense rather than capital expenditure. A City Hall at Vallco could be located on Stevens Creek Boulevard or
Wolfe Road or even Vallco Parkway, so it would be convienent to all users. If the Council is interested, it will be
important to move quickly so that best location might be reserved.
Still more ideas that give the City the facility it needs while still allowing the City to retain its land could come out
of a negotiation process with an experienced developer.
As a 60 year homeowner in Cupertino, I have seen many extraordinary political events perpetrated by the City
Council. If the Council decides to destroy the Sports Center it would be among the worst. The prior owner wanted
to convert the Sports Center property into a bunch of Condos or a Trailer park 25 years ago and the City denied that
request because that property is zoned for Recreational use. Nothing has changed in the intervening 25 years. The
Council may have the power to make such a change, but the citizens would mount such an outcry that none of its
members would retain their seats.
A public private partnership is likely the city’s best option for procuring a safe City Hall. The City should first
pursue the lease strategy outlined above before sacrificing an existing community resource such as the Sports
Center. If the Council is interested, I could arrange a meeting with Sand Hill Properties to further discuss the
details.

Hello City Council,
I have been a resident of this city for a long time. As a member of Cupertino Sports Center for many
years, it has been a source of comfort to me. It is a place where the community can come together and
constructively spend evenings and weekends. As an organized club, it offers more benefits than open
tennis courts in parks. Both of my kids have learned tennis here. We participate in many club activities,
which include using the gym, attending yoga classes, Strength-building classes, and tennis.
I have heard that you plan to erase it, which has caused chaos in my family of four. Every member of our
family is a member of this institution. In today's world, places like Cupertino Sports Center are rare due to
ongoing developments. Why would you want to eradicate such an important institution? Why can't we find
an alternative? Please do not disservice this beautiful city because some developers are pushing for it.
Please think twice before coming up with this self-destructive proposal...

“Hello City Council,
The Cupertino Sports Center is a crown jewel of Cupertino. It has Cupertino residents who
have been members for decades. It is fully occupied usage starting 8am and stays fully

Cupertino kids per day. In addition it provides facilities for coaching badminton, ping pong,
gym, personal training, basketball, pickleball, chess and racketball.
Cupertino Sports Center is home to at least 5 - 8 USTA competitive league teams each season
and there are multiple seasons (18+, adult, seniors in men’s and then the same for womens,
then each of these across different competitive levels, after which likewise there are combo
seasons and mixed seasons.). All in, any given year, there may be 60 - 100 league teams that
call the Cupertino Sports Center home. Each league team on average has 20 players. This
means at least 1200 - 2000 league players could be impacted, but if you reduce by 75% for
duplicates, that still leaves at least 500 league players who call Cupertino Sports Center home
affected.
Suffice to say this. Court bookings open at 8am 7 days ahead. All courts are booked within 10
seconds of bookings opening. To recap, courts get taken 7 days in advance within 20 seconds
of bookings opening. This happens daily.
CSC is revenue generating and self sustaining. Patrons pay an annual or monthly membership.

Dear Cupertino City Council
My name is Louis Satrijo. Although I am a resident of West San Jose, I feel Cupertino has become my
second home because my family and I often come to Cupertino to play tennis at the Cupertino Sports
Center. Ever since becoming members of the Sports Center, my family and I would often be in Cupertino
shopping for groceries, eating at nearby restaurants, buying gas, getting our tennis rackets strung, buying
Boba tea, and buying pizza to take home after tennis. The Cupertino Sports Center brings people
together from surrounding communities into Cupertino and many friendships are made there. Please
consider keeping the Cupertino Sports Center as it is one of the things that draws people to Cupertino
and distinguishes the city from other nearby communities.

Dear ladies and gentlemen of the City Council. My name is Catalin Cazangiu. I am Cupertino resident and i have
been leaving and working in Cupertino for the past 10 years. Recently was brought to my attention through various
sources that the Council is considering a proposal for redevelopment of the Cupertino Sports Center, potentially
closing it down. I think it this is terrible ideea, the worse of the kind, and please allow me to tell you why. As many
people loving in the South Bay area I spend my entire day sitting on a chair, working on a computer (in many cases
2-3 in the same time). Running at the end of the day to pick up kids from school and driving them to various
activities. It is pretty stressful I could say and lack of fresh air and physical activity for the good part of the day takes
its tall. I end up home with a huge headache and pretty much with no energy whatsoever. The things got worse
during the pandemic, given stress of working from home while homeschooling the kids. The only thing that kept me
going was a group of friends I made through the classes I used to take at Cupertino Sports Center. We all share a
passion for tennis and i look forward at the end of a stressful day for 1-2h of playing tennis there. By the time i get
back home the stress is gone, headache is gone…tennis at CSC is a pressure valve that allows me (and others in the
community) to stay afloat.
My kids started playing tennis there and over the years they picked up other sports at CSC. One of them os amongst
the first 100 in California for his group of age and he has dreams of playing at the highest level. It all started at CSC
when he was about 5. My older son goes to the gym there. It helps him to get through the teenager years, stay in
shape and train for water polo. He is in the Varsity team Cupertino High and wants to play college water polo.
Working out in the gym at CSC helps him with physical strengthening and conditioning.
There are many people lives that gravitate around CSC. Young and old, skilled in sports or not so skilled, we all end
up or start the day there, making friends and forgetting about stressful projects at work or other problems at home.
I don’t think out town needs more commercial spaces (we have restaurants that opens and close within a year - there
are too many), commercial buildings that are not used (Apple for example moves teams down to San Diego leaving
some other their buildings half full). We lack good parks (remember the days when Memorial Park had water
fountains, see the parks in Sunnyvale), biking trails (see Mountain View and Los Gatos), tennis courts are not near
enough (for how many people picked up either tennis or pickerball since the pandemic), affordable gyms are
nowhere to be found in Cupertino. So destroying the only place in Cupertino, that allows people to connect and
relax, is a terrible and terrifying ideea. I hope for the sake of our community that you guys will consider these
aspects and this proposal will be rejected in the end. Otherwise will look forward to the next round of elections to
male out voices and wishes heard
With respect

Hello City Council members,
I am writing in regards to the P3 (Public Private Partnership) to replace the Cupertino Sports Center.
The Cupertino Sports Center has been an integral part of our family for decades: all members of my

I use Cupertino Sports Center almost 5 times every week and the facility is flourishing by all kinds of

Dear City Council,
I am very saddened to hear that there is a proposal to eliminate the Sports Center. I
am a resident of Cupertino and I have been a member of CSC for only 2 years. But I
spent almost time there. CSC is Cupertino's only sporting facility. CSC is a very
special place for many of us. It is a very well-managed facility. The staff is always
very helpful and courteous. It's a great place to play tennis, take exercise classes, and
work out in the gym so we can stay healthy. And it's good for kids, too. It's also a
place where people make friends and form connections. All of these things are very
important to our well-being.
It has been even more important given what we have been through with the
pandemic. During the lockdown, we couldn't do much, but being able to go to CSC
to play tennis was life-saving.
I hope that you will abandon this idea of eliminating CSC.

friends and excellent tennis courts. I would hate to see it eliminated, therefore I am objecting to the proposal of the
CSC being replaced by mixed use development. Please reconsider your proposal.
Thank you,

Dear City Council,
The Cupertino Sports Center (CSC) which was recently renovated is an important facility in
Cupertino with city residents with some members using it for decades, paying upwards of
$500 as membership fees, generating revenue from operations and leasing of courts for
thirdparty coaching companies.
There are 16 tennis courts as well as indoor and outdoor facilities for basketball, badminton,
table tennis, gym, personal training facilities, pickleball, racquetball, chess and other sports. It
is generally heavily used from opening to close and it is used to engage and teach many kids,
particularly in tennis. The courts are very popular with slots taken up very fast as soon they
are open to the public.
Several USTA competitive league matches are held at CSC every year and closure of CSC will
impact the league matches and players who participate in these matches.
It was surprising to see that CSC will be part of a plan for a new development on its premises.
I request the council to oppose oppose the inclusion of Cupertino Sports Center in agenda
item 7 to be taken up on 10/17 meeting and reject the recommendations to fund a
conceptual plan involving the Cupertino Sports Center.
Thanks
Regards

Hello City Council,
The Cupertino Sports Center is a crown jewel of Cupertino. It has Cupertino residents who
have been members for decades. It is fully occupied starting at 8am and stays fully occupied
until closing at 10pm. There are 16 tennis courts which are used to teach 100s of your
Cupertino kids per day. In addition it provides facilities for coaching badminton, ping pong,
gym, personal training, basketball, pickleball, chess and racketball.
Cupertino Sports Center is home to at least 5 - 8 USTA competitive league teams each season
and there are multiple seasons (18+, adult, seniors in men’s and then the same for womens,
then each of these across different competitive levels, after which likewise there are combo
seasons and mixed seasons.). All in, any given year, there may be 60 - 100 league teams that
call the Cupertino Sports Center home. Each league team on average has 20 players. This
means at least 1200 - 2000 league players could be impacted, but if you reduce by 75% for
duplicates, that still leaves at least 500 league players who call Cupertino Sports Center home
affected.
Suffice to say this. Court bookings open at 8am 7 days ahead. All courts are booked within 10
seconds of bookings opening. To recap, courts get taken 7 days in advance within 20 seconds
of bookings opening. This happens daily.
CSC is revenue generating and self-sustaining. Patrons pay an annual or monthly membership.
Annual memberships run from $400 - $550. In addition, court time is leased to Lifetime which
conducts kids lessons.
We CSC patrons are therefore shocked that Cupertino city staff would even think of putting a
proposal forward to eliminate the Cupertino Sports Center.
I request you all to kindly oppose the inclusion of Cupertino Sports Center in agenda item 7
and reject any city staff recommendations to fund a conceptual plan involving the Cupertino
sports center.
Kindly do not allow even the start of a conceptual plan for the sports center.
Please save our sports facilities. First the city proposed replacing BlackBerry farm golf course.
Then it was memorial park softball fields. Now it is the Cupertino sports center.
Please leave our sports facilities alone. They are not meant to be handed over to developers.

Dear Council Members,
My name is Sandra Miller and I am an active member of CSC. I use the facility on an almost daily basis to play
tennis (including USTA) and workout in the gym. I have recently learned that there is a proposal out there to close
the sports center and for me this is terribly disturbing. This is a place that plays a part in the lives of SO many
people, both young and old; it helps them stay active and healthy as well as provides a sense of community. I do not
understand why anyone would entertain the idea of taking away this Cupertino City facility and I am totally opposed
to the proposal.

Dear Hung Wei, Liang Chao, Kitty Moore, Sheila Mohan, and J.R. Fruen,
Hope you are all doing well. I am writing as a concerned resident of Cupertino (I have been
here since 2004 and attended Lincoln Elementary School, Kennedy Middle School, and Monta
Vista High School while growing up!) to express my strong opposition to the proposed
conversion of the Cupertino Sports Center into a mixed-use facility. Cupertino Sports Center
has been a cornerstone of our community, and serves as a vital hub for exercise, recreation,
and social engagement for countless residents over the years. I have personally enjoyed
working out, attending fitness classes, and playing badminton at the Sports Center.
It would ultimately be a disservice to our community to eliminate a facility that offers such a
wide array of opportunities for the well-being and social connectedness of our residents. I urge
the City Council to reconsider the proposal to convert the Cupertino Sports Center to a public
hall and to explore alternative options that can co-exist with the facility. Maintaining the
Cupertino Sports Center in its current form is vital to preserving the health and quality of life
for many residents.
Thank you for your time and consideration. I am hopeful that we can find a solution that best
serves the interests of Cupertino's residential community.

Hello City Council,
I have been a long-time resident of Cupertino, since my family moved here in 1982. I have
also been a long-time patron of the Cupertino Sports Center -- at least one decade.
I have been informed that City Council is considering replacing Cupertino Sports Center with
a mixed use facility. I am asking that you do NOT consider the Sports Center as a potential
site for removal. This is the only gym in the area with the hours that can accommodate a
variety of schedules. Gyms such as the YMCA, F45, and Orangetheory have terrible hours,
not to mention none has tennis courts. From the looks of the parking lot in the evenings, I
suspect that the Cupertino Sports Center is a revenue-generating asset to the City. And I would
also suggest you consider the Sports Center staff, many of whom are local De Anza students
who need jobs with flexible hours and schedules to accommodate their classes.
Thank you for your consideration,

Are you seriously considering turning the sports center into another mixed use facility?
Has any one of you taken the time to visit the sports center on any Monday, Wednesday or Friday morning to notice
that all the tennis courts are being used by seniors, men and women alike? Has anyone bothered to ask how many
kids attend the tennis camp during the entire summer at the sports center?
And what is your alternative suggestion for all the members, mostly retirees during the day, who use the facilities
for exercise and as a way to connect with other residents in the community? Do you want us all at City Hall?
The idea to convert a health center in favor of office space is a terrible proposition and I along with many members
of the Cupertino Sports Center urge you to reject this plan and think about creating more open spaces for residents
rather than additional office space to be used for City Hall or otherwise.

We urge you to keep the Sport Center as it currently exists. We have lived in Cupertino since 1984. We enjoy our
quiet family-oriented community. I’ve been a member at the Sport Center since retiring in 2002–I love the Zumba
classes and attend 4 times per week. It’s my social life. I have many friends I’ve met over the years there. My
husband has been there even longer and uses the tennis courts regularly with his tennis buddies. We also use the
workout equipment. When Bay Club arrived in Cupertino at the Vallco site, we looked into switching our
membership. It was way too expensive and impersonal—just to have a convenient Starbucks!! The staff at the Sport
Center are also a plus—they know us by name and make us feel welcome. The instructors are excellent! What about
all the recent upgrades that have been done?

Dear City Council,
I am very saddened to hear that there is a proposal to eliminate the Sports Center. I have been a

facility. CSC is a very special place for many of us. It is a very well-managed facility. The staff is
always very helpful and courteous. It's a great place to play tennis, take exercise classes, and work
out in the gym so we can stay healthy. It's also a place where people make friends and form
connections. All of these things are very important to our well-being.
It has been even more important given what we have been through with the pandemic. During
the lockdown, we couldn't do much, but being able to go to CSC to play tennis was life-saving.
I hope that you will abandon this idea of eliminating CSC.
Thank you for your consideration.

this situation prior to the elections and I was ensured by those up for election (and subsequently voted in) of the
support for this needed facility. Don’t not let us down now that we have supported you.
This is one of the few places still left in this ever changing city that keeps us unified and healthy! This center
provides a needed service to the community that cannot be replaced. It supports our health, our need for
socialization and brings in others outside of our city to support our businesses!
I strongly urge your support for this wonderful and needed center!

To the City Council,
The City Council Staff Report for the meeting on 10/17/2023 outlined options for construction
of a new City Hall facility. One option was described as below:
Two properties are of a size to make an evaluation worthwhile: City Hall (including
Community Hall) and the Sports Center. In both cases a project would involve removing
the existing facilities and constructing a mixed use facility that meets a private
development need as well as replacing the municipal need.
I, as a Cupertino resident and member of the Cupertino Sports Center, ask you not to consider
using the property of the Sports Center for the new City Hall for the reasons below:
Removal of this facility would be a substantial downgrade to the city. Having a
tennis/gym facility run by the city is a draw and only the best cities have them.
Exercise, competition and learning opportunities is an essential part of community and
people’s lives. Staying healthy, beginning and maintaining healthy activities is very
important not to mention making connections with people of like mind.
This would be very disruptive to the people who use the Sports Center and future
members. People would have to find a new establishments to do the activities that are
offered at the Sports Center. For tennis, the Sunnyvale Tennis center is the closest
facility and is already very busy and expensive (and we wouldn’t have resident priority
to book courts there). People who work out, would have to join other fitness clubs
which would be less convenient and perhaps more expensive. Kids in the tennis
programs would have to find other tennis training most likely farther away from home.
I use the Sports Center about three times a week. If the center was not here, I know that I
would not be playing as much tennis or exercising as much as I do now.
A shiny new City Hall is not better than a Sports Center where people can gather to exercise,
learn and engage in competitive tennis. In fact, why do we need a “brand new” City Hall? It’s
much cheaper to renovate that to build new and the council should be mindful of the budget.
We don’t need a fancy city hall, just a clean and safe city.
The fact that you are even considering the Sports Center property is appalling. Please do the
RIGHT thing, don’t waste any more time and money considering the removal of the Sports
Center. Just because you can do it, doesn’t mean you should do it.
Sincerely,
Claudia Lee

I just heard the news that the city is floating a proposal with an option to eliminate the

I would like to voice my objection to any proposal to eliminate the Cupertino Sports Center as
it is an important part of our community. I hope you would consider other alternatives in the

Dear Cupertino City Counsel,
I am Cupertino resident, and I am writing to voice my concern and objection to the closing down of
the Cupertino Sports Center (CSC). The CSC is a place that many Cupertino residents and others use
to play a sport (e.g., tennis, pickle ball, basketball, racquet ball, etc.), exercise and generally come
together socially. Thus, I believe that it is important to the Cupertino community and it would be a
huge loss to the Cupertino community to close it down for the proposed “private use development
(residential) and municipal use on one or multiple properties” in Cupertino.
While it may be inconvenience to the people that work at City Hall, it seem likely this space would be
a better choice to renovate versus the CSC, based on what I believe is the number of people that
regularly use the CSC on a daily basis. However, I am assuming that the plan would not include
closing Cupertino library.

Dear Councilmen,
Today, I learned from my friends that the City of Cupertino is considering the
elimination of the Cupertino Sports Center (CSC). I would like to inquire about the
reasons behind this decision.
I've been a member of CSC for over a decade, and it has held a special place in our
community. It's where we gather to play tennis, engage in leagues, create lasting
friendships, and enjoy our time on the courts. Recently, my wife also joined the club
and has been thoroughly enjoying the Bombay Jam classes. This has become her
primary avenue to connect with people and make new friends. It's disheartening to
hear that the city is contemplating replacing this valuable facility for other purposes.
I strongly implore the city council to reconsider this proposal.

Dear Council Members,
I am writing to voice my objection to repurposing the Cupertino Sports Center for a mixed
municipal and private use facility that would host the City Hall.
CSC provides a space for a thriving tennis community, exercise classes, gym equipment, and
children's sports programs. The city has spent significant funds to redo sidewalks for ADA
compliance, painting, and maintenance. The center provides a place for folks to gather, meet,
and build community and camaraderie and engage in health-promoting activities. Surely, this
is an important component for any community.
Please KEEP Cupertino Sports Center as is. There must be other, more suitable venues that are
available for a mixed municipal/private use facility. CSC is a vital part of Cupertino. The city's
ongoing investment in keeping CSC well maintained and functioning speaks volumes for what
has historically been a priority in having a tennis center in Cupertino.
Thank you for your time.

Dear City Council, I recently heard that there was a recommendation to replace the
Cupertino Sports Center with a new City Hall or some other type of development. My initial
reaction was sadness and to then think of how it would be such a huge loss for our
community.
My family, friends, and I have all taken classes at the Cupertino Sports Center or were
members. They offer Lifetime Activities such as tennis for youth through adults. Currently,
my 7 year old daughter is taking tennis lessons there. It is a great location for families in the
community to get physically fit, especially the young ones. When I drop my daughter off, we
see families socializing before classes begin and afterwards. Since classes are usually for
kids similar in age, the students run into their classmates. I know I've run into students at
the Cupertino Sports Center and everyone says it is a convenient location and they offer
multiple classes that run simultaneously.
We all know school sites are unable to all offer classes such as what the Cupertino Sports
Center has. There are no tennis courts at the elementary schools and the instructors at the
Sports Center and facility are wonderful. Camps are also available during school breaks.
Driving by, I always see adults with their families enjoying tennis or going into the Sports
Center to stay fit. We should not be taking away something that offers services to keep our
community physically fit.
I urge you to reject agenda item 7 staff recommendations and refuse to grant permission to
move forward with conceptual plans to replace the sports center with a city hall project. The
city needs to support and encourage sports facilities.
Thank you,

Dear City Council,
Please do not eliminate the Cupertino Sports Center. It's been my sports center for over 22
years. I have enjoyed being a member of this Center and even had family membership. My
two kids grew up with the Child Watch Center when they were young. It would be a very sad

Dear Sir/Madam:
I am a long time Cupertino resident. I would like to take this opportunity to voice my objection to the discussion
regarding repurposing the Cupertino Sports Center.
The center provides essential and well priced recreational services for local children, families, adults and the elderly
that are not readily available elsewhere.
My children had their first swim lessons at the Cupertino Sports Center. They went on to take tennis, basketball
classes and now attend the gym when they are back from college. I am a long time and continuous member of the
Cupertino Sports Center. And I am pleased to have my tax dollars support this wonderful facility.
In summary, I am a Cupertino resident who objects to the repurposing of the Cupertino Sports Center.

Dear Hung Wei, Liang Chao, Kitty Moore, Shiela Mohan and JR. Fruen,
I hope this letter finds you in good health and high spirits. I am writing as a concerned resident of Cupertino to
express my strong opposition to the proposed conversion of the Cupertino Sports Center into a mixed-use facility.
Cupertino Sports Center, has been a cornerstone of our community, serves as a vital hub for exercise, recreation, and
social engagement for countless residents.
The Cupertino Sports Center has played an integral role in the lives of many Cupertino residents, offering a wide
range of amenities that cater to the diverse needs of our community. It provides an exceptional setting for residents
of all ages to engage in physical activities and maintain their well-being.
As our population ages, the need for outlets to exercise, socialize, and enjoy recreational activities becomes
increasingly important. The Cupertino Sports Center has, for years, been a valuable resource for our seniors,
allowing them to remain active and socially connected. The availability of group and private tennis lessons, fitness
classes, personal training, and a multitude of programs catering to various age groups makes it an invaluable asset
for our community.
In addition, the Cupertino Sports Center fosters a sense of community and unity. It provides a platform for residents
to come together, share experiences, and form friendships through socials, inter-club tennis events, and other
programs. The presence of a pro shop on-site and the option for ball machine rentals further enhance the
accessibility and convenience of the facility.
I understand that public mixed-use facilities serve a unique purpose within our community. However, converting the
Cupertino Sports Center into such a venue would result in the loss of a valuable resource that caters to the pressing
needs of our residents. We need spaces for physical activity, recreational sports, and social gatherings, especially for
our aging population. It would be a disservice to our community to eliminate or diminish a facility that offers such a
wide array of opportunities for the well-being and social connectedness of our residents.
I urge the City Council to reconsider the proposal to convert the Cupertino Sports Center into a public hall and to
explore alternative solutions that can coexist with the existing facility. Maintaining the Cupertino Sports Center in
its current form is vital to preserving the health and quality of life for many residents.
Thank you for your time and consideration. I am hopeful that, together, we can find a solution that serves the best
interests of all Cupertino residents.

I have been a member of the Cupertino Sports Center for the past two years—I would estimate I use the tennis
courts there on a daily basis, sometimes twice a day. There are hundreds of members of CSC of all ages who view
the facility not just as aa space in which they can participate in tennis as well as other activities, but as a community
and an integral part of the city of Cupertino. Additionally part of its appeal is that it is affordable for families,
couples and singles, unlike the numerous private country clubs in the mid-peninsula area.
I strongly oppose the proposal to eliminate this facility. Please consider other options.

Dear Cupertino City Council,
My name is Paul Le and I have been a member of CSC since 2019. It is disheartened to hear
that the Council is considering a project that would involve removing CSC for construction of

This Sports Center has been an invaluable community health center for residents to exercise,
play tennis / racquetball / pingpong / basketball / pickleball and build friendships. I cannot

It is what makes Cupertino a well balanced community.

Dear Honorable Mayor Hung Wei and Cupertino City Council Members,
Please do not transform the Cupertino Sports Center into a City Hall. Please find another
location.
The Cupertino Sports Center (CSC) is a wonderful place for hundreds of family members and
friends to play tennis and exercise. I have seen friends, fathers, mothers, and their children
spending time together and bonding. This is a very rare occasion in the fast paced cities of the
Silicon Valley.
The opportunity for families to spend time together is crucial to develop a harmonious society.
Without positive experiences and meaningful bonding, often times, family members will lose
touch with each other and drift off.
Confucius had said the family unit is the building block of a harmonious society. The
Cupertino Sports Center has the proper setting to foster this environment. For the sake of a
better Cupertino tomorrow and today, please take this request into consideration.
I appreciate your time and consideration.

Dear City Council,
I understand there is an agenda item for the 10/17 mtg to redevelop the Cupertino Sports
Center into housing / city hall purposes.
I have been a member of this club and a long time local for over 15 years. This club is
perhaps one of the best facilities I have been a member of - it is tragic that such a proposal
is even being brought up for consideration.
Rather than further development - we should consider what brings good health and social
engagement for our residents and neighbors. I have made life long friends and stayed in
good shape because of facilities like this. I would actually encourage the city to make more
of these rather than add to traffic and human density in our neighborhoods.
Please reject this proposal outright - I happy to come by to your office and enumerate the

As Cupertino resident of 30 years, I am disappointed to learn that our beloved Cupertino Sport Center is being

The sport center is my life!! My family and I play tennis there at least 5x a week. We are very much involved in the
Cupertino tennis league and social activities. My children play tennis there and are enrolled in classes. I’ve met so
many great people who love the sports center and love playing tennis there. We are constantly inviting friends to
join CSC. I think there are no other places that compare to the sport center. It is one of Cupertino’s greatest
attractions!!
It would be a shame to convert the sports center into a mix use facility for folks that don’t live in Cupertino. It’s
crowded as it is with “mixed use “ facilities.

Hello,
I was reading some report about the plan to eliminate the cupertino Sports Center and
turn the location into a mixed municipal and private use facility that will host the city hall.
This came as shocking news to me. Tennis is such an integral part of my life and i spend
atleast 3-4 days at Cupertino sports center every week. I have made lot of friends and we play
several league and usta matches regularly. The tennis courts at CSC have been well
maintained and when i compare this with other tennis courts like lifetime santa clara, bay club,
lifetime sunnyvale- cupertino is much better.
After a hectic day at work, we get to relax our mind and body by playing tennis in
the evenings. Please do not convert this heavenly place in Cupertino that has beautiful tennis
courts into a city hall. Please look for other alternative options.
Playing tennis gives lot of health benefits and i do not want to go back to my unhealthy
lifestyle. The public tennis courts in Cupertino is always full and we hardly can find courts
available to play. I have taken an annual membership at Cupertino sports center and that
enables me to play regularly. I am not just speaking on my behalf, but imagine a healthy
lifestyle for atleast 30-40 adults. Lot of kids come for coaching and every tennis activity will
be stopped.
My kids come to Cupertino sports center for badminton coaching, even that will be gone.

Hello City Council,
I have been a resident of this city for a long time and also a serial entrepreneur. As a member
of CTC for many years, it has been a source of comfort to me. It is a place where the
community can come together and spend evenings and weekends in a constructive way. As an
organized club, it offers benefits that are unmatched compared to open tennis courts in parks.
I have heard that you are planning to erase it, and this has caused chaos in my family of four.
Every member of our family is a member of this institution. In today's world, places like CTC
are rare due to ongoing developments. Why would you want to eradicate such an important
institution? Why can't we find an alternative? Please do not do a disservice to this wonderful
city because some developers are pushing for it. Please think twice before coming up with this
self-destructive proposal...
Best Regards,
Romy

Hi city of cupertino,
My name is Nobuhiro Yanagisawa, a member of cupertino sports center.
My family including myself have been using tennis court mainly and having a lot of fun!
I believe the sports center is one of the best facility that provides the environment for many
people to enjoy and live healthy in this busy world regardless of the age/genders.
I’d love to see it lasts longer and keep providing us great opportunities to get gather and to
have fun!
Best Regards,

I wanted to send this to you to express my total opposition to the replacement of Cupertino
Sports Center by another facility. Me and my family are members and the benefits of CSC are
numerous. We play tennis there at least four times a week, we made a large amount of friends
and the social and health benefits for having the facility are enormous. There's a large amount
of people who uses the courts and that would displace a lot of players and disrupt a large
number of social activities around the sport, let alone all the kids activities around tennis.
I would like this letter to be considered and the facility to not be removed.

Dear Cupertino City Council,
My name is Tak K. Young. My family has been a Cupertino resident since 1979 and we have enjoyed the services
and facilities provided by the Cupertino city.
I just heard the news that the city is floating a proposal with an option to eliminate the Cupertino Sports Center.
This is an alarming issue. I have been an annual member of the Cupertino Sports Center since 2009. The Cupertino
Sports Center is considered to be an icon of Cupertino city. The tennis courts and the exercise facility (together with
the exercise classes) provide a safe and comfortable environment for the Cupertino residents to enjoy the sports of
tennis (and other sports also) and to keep our bodies fit and healthy with the exercise facilities. This is important to
the families residing in Cupertino.
I consider the Cupertino Sports Center as one of the key facilities provided by the city. I object to any proposal to
eliminate the Cupertino Sports Center. Please consider other alternatives in the city's new plan.
Thanks,
Tak K Young

Dear City Council Members,
I would like to voice my concern about possibly closing the Sport Center.
There has been a lot of talk over the years about creating a “heart of Cupertino” around things like the Vallco re-
development, Main Street, etc. As a member of the Sport Center, I see the CSC as part of that heart. It is more than a
simple gym, it is a place of community where people of many ages come together in healthy activities. Children
come for camps summer & school breaks to play together & learn sports in a safe place. Parents rely on that
resource for those school breaks when they have to work. Teens & Adults gather to participate in healthy exercise &
sports. Friend meet up to play sports or exercise together, have fun, and celebrate each other.
Although the Rec Center provides some exercise classes, it does not provide that community spirit and it does not
have the exercise equipment or sport courts. Additionally taking just 1 class each quarter through the Rec program
costs almost as much or more than an annual membership to the CSC where I take 5-6 classes a week.
I know there is a need for housing in our community but taking away a vibrant place of community gathering should
not be part of that equation. If we do need a renovated or new City Hall, it should stay in the location it is in now
because that whole park/Community Hall & Library square makes a nice combination of services.
Thank you for your time,
Kellee Noonan

SECTION 2 - SCOPE OF SERVICES FEES
Cumming’s standard billing practice is based on time and materials, in which invoices are submitted monthly for
hours expended on work performed the month prior. Utilizing this philosophy, we have found that Cumming’s fee
approach traditionally provides our clients with the most flexibility and cost effectiveness, as costs are only incurred
based on the current needs of the owner.
Our hourly rate and proposed fees are valid for 30 days from the date of this proposal. If selected to provide
project/construction management services for the City. The rates are subject to change on a yearly basis starting
on January 1, 2024.
Proposed Hourly Rates and As-Needed Services
Cumming proposes one Project Manager to oversee the Project Development, Preconstruction, Construction, and
Close-out phases. Cumming is readily prepared to provide additional support staff and services on an as-needed
basis, as well as a preventative measure to mitigate any unforeseen exposures that may impact project budget,
schedule, and/or quality, if and as required by the City. As such, Cumming provided hourly rates in the table below

Scheduling Philosophy & Approach
Scheduling Methodology
Cumming is skilled in all aspects of scheduling. Our experts
are capable of conducting cursory schedule reviews,
preparing and updating master program and detailed
project schedules, as well as as-built schedules for forensic
analysis purposes. This expertise is described in further
detail below.
Schedule Analysis
The underlying foundation of schedule management rests
on the Critical Path Method (CPM) schedule. Our team has
built thousands of CPM schedules and understands how
they can be manipulated by the underlying adjustments to
floats, leads and lags, duration adjustments, alterations in
logic, and constraints.
We are experts in schedule management and forensic
schedule analysis. We have declared experts in construction
schedule delay and we provide this analysis on a daily basis
as a part of our litigation support services. We define and
represent delays and disruptions in schedules and reflect
what the impacts are and how they can be mitigated. We
are well versed in seeing and exposing delays, disruptions
and hidden acceleration in schedules and we analyze them
for the overall impact and expected cost.
Schedule Communication and Reporting
Our schedules are updated regularly—never less than
once per month; generally more frequently and any delays
are identified and communicated to all parties at the next
regularly scheduled management update meeting. As a
matter of course, we use the schedule as the primary tool
to inform our clients of the critical deadlines the team is
working towards. Schedules are prepared simply and in
both detail and roll-up forms for ease of understanding and
use.
Schedule Maintenance
We believe that a schedule is only valuable if the progress
is measured and evaluated against an agreed baseline.
Schedules should serve not only as a historical view of a
project at a particular moment in time, but as a management
tool that should be used to evaluate and drive results. We
provide project status reporting services for our clients
that include the actual validation of the stated condition of
their schedules. We report the results and evaluate current
performance against baseline goals. Changes typically
impact the schedule. We have tremendous experience
incorporating changes into our schedules and in quickly
identifying net impacts. We also evaluate changes to
determine whether these impacts affect the critical path or
whether they are ancillary and, thus, may not cause a delay
in project completion. We provide our clients with mitigation
options should changes impact the timely completion of a
project.
Schedule Creation
Our schedules are created by professionals skilled in both
forensic and forward scheduling, a unique differentiator that
enables Cumming to foresee and mitigate schedule conflicts
before they arise. Cumming begins each scheduling
assignment by first gaining a fundamental understanding of
project scope. Following a top down approach, we identify
and incorporate critical milestones, ensure adherence to
overarching project parameters, and analyze component
relationships. Requirements are then reviewed forwards and
backwards to ensure that all project elements have been
considered and are in sync.
Schedule Management
We assist our clients in the development of the Design
Work Plan in concert with the actual in-place design teams.
Our staff have managed the design development process
for clients, which allows us to have a ‘real world’ perspective
on the effort required, the relevant and necessary
milestones, and a focus on developing a pre-construction/
design schedule. In addition, we provide management and
oversight of the schedule during construction, ensuring
goals are met and completed according to the timeline.
Approach to Phasing
When it comes to project phasing, understanding the
process and impacts of construction is as important as
quantifying the elements of construction. Looking at the
project from an owner’s perspective is crucial. Will phasing
impact the current operations? Is there a better way to
achieve the project goal through alternative phasing
schemes? These questions, and more, must be asked during
phasing analysis for the project. Cumming team members
have the proven experience required to determine the
impacts to your schedule and budget, and bring the most
value to your project. Schedules should not only serve as an
overall view of a project at a particular moment in time, but
as a management tool that should be used to evaluate and
drive results.
It takes a team
THAT ANTICIPATES AND MITIGATES RISK.

CPM and Pull Planning Integration
Approach
Cumming has developed a Schedule Approach for the project that is rooted in a lean delivery method of minimizing waste
through effective planning. This document will serve to outline that approach to achieve the following goals:
Integrate and Align CPM and Pull Planning
Minimize redundancy and focus on throughput time
Maintain 1:1 relationship
Minimize opportunity for process breakdown
Leverage technology (software) to do what each does best
Trade Partner involvement in entire process
OFE & LLE Process for prefabrication
Clean executable, repeatable, cost effective
Historically accurate for ABC Metrics for continuous improvement
CPM high-level planning is needed for coordination between designers, construction trades, vendors, and the owner at a high
level. Pull Planning is needed to maximize the team’s production on a day-to-day basis. Both processes are more effective and
minimize waste best when they are used in a manner that allows each system to complement the other.

Figures 3 and 4 below are from a current ski resort development current utilizing Cumming for schedule monitoring services.
The project is currently on schedule; however, the project was at risk to miss a major turnover milestone for the coming winter
ski season. Figure 3 shows the path to the ski easement turnover and the -28 day delay to turnover milestone, -3 days past
the required date. Analysis of the schedule and work in place indicate that the delays to this point are the responsibility of
the General Contractor, except for 3-day of weather. After review of the delay allocation, and discussions with the general
contractor, means of mitigating the delay were incorporated into the schedule for an on-time delivery of the ski slope.
Figure 8 shows the Step Analysis for the entire project and the calculated schedule risk due to Float Erosion, Compression and
Schedule Delay. We calculate Schedule Risk as a combination of Schedule Compression, Schedule Delay and Float to give
early visibility of areas of the project add risk to the project. As shown in this example, the project is still on schedule, however
the Finishes show 54 workdays of compression, with 0 days of float. Similarly, Drywall shows 42 workdays of compression,
however as it has 6 days of float, the risk to the project, if the contractor fails to complete the work in a compressed period, is
36 days.

Methodology and technology for estimating.
The delivery of each project on-budget, on-schedule,
and on-quality is our primary goal for every client. This
means much more than administering a project through
weekly site visits, attending meetings, and taking notes.
Cumming’s project managers proactively lead, challenge,
motivate and direct teams to generate superb results that
save money and time, mitigate risk, and achieve our clients’
delivery goals. We are advocates for our clients and we
take great pride and ownership in everything we do. We
are pro-active leaders and ensure that the documents
used to manage the process are clearly incorporated in the
contracts with consultants and the contracting community.
Setting expectations upfront and early is a key to a project’s
success.
The Cumming approach is founded on principal
involvement, and our staffing plans vary from project to
project and adjust to meet the needs of our clients and the
project’s specifics. All projects are led by an executive (VP-
level), and supported by a day-to-day Project Manager and
Cost Manager who will be intricately involved in the project
from inception through completion. As projects of this
type always have ups and downs in terms of involvement,
the dedicated team is supported by localized resources of
dedicated project, cost, and schedule management staff to
drive our overall efforts and meet tight impactful deadlines.
One of our immediate tasks upon engagement is to set up
a project governance structure that encourages efficient,
thoughtful, and proactive decision-making. This governance
structure guides not only the relationship between
Cumming and ownership, but the entire project relationship
for all other consultants, including but not limited to the
architect, construction manager (CM), engineers, and
FF&E and specialty consultants. It takes into account the
corporate structure of clients, the key internal and external
stakeholders that must be engaged, and establishes a
workflow cadence that is agreed upon at the outset of a
project.
We look to manage the relationship with the Client as a
partnership, with the executive driving this at the corporate
level, and the cost management lead on a day-to-day level.
Continuous improvement is rooted in our DNA, and beyond
advocating daily feedback, the Cumming executive will
participate in a monthly meeting with the Client’s lead and
our team lead. On a quarterly basis, an independent review
will happen in the form of a one-page feedback session.
Cumming also worked with clients to establish project
KPI’s, and in doing so, we emphasize the word key – it
has to be essential to achieve the aim of project delivery
with compliance. During quarterly reviews, the KPIs are
systematically measured and reported on. On an annual
basis we reevaluate with the Client what is the key that
really makes a difference and realign with the needs of
the program. KPIs cannot be static, they adjust as projects
evolve. When required, pull together a specialist “task force”
of team members that are highly well-versed in a particular
aspect of the project – from an understanding of the local
market, to the specifics of MEP estimating, to negotiating
skills with subcontractors.

communications and public recreation projects.
Construction Spending Index 2010-2021 (2010=1.0)
Pre-Construction Phase Methodology
During the pre-design and design phases, our team will
confer with your staff concerning specific project goals
relative to project scope, project budget, project schedule,
design concepts, and quality as a basis for formulating a
detailed development plan for the project.
One of the main objectives during this period is to provide
a conceptual cost budget and a preliminary “Critical Path
Method” development schedule for the project. Cumming
will also assist the design team with the evaluation of
proposed systems, equipment and materials, and will advise
you on alternatives to optimize cost effectiveness, quality
standards and system life cycle costs and benefits (value
engineering).
Budget and Cost Management
In order to provide reliable cost management services, a
thorough understanding of the global, national, and local
markets for such specific drivers as material commodities,
availability and cost, as well as labor availability and
cost—which can and do affect the cost of a project—must
be tracked and known. Cumming starts by developing a
crew-based database system that utilizes current local
labor rates, workers compensation, sales tax, subcontractor
mark-ups, equipment pricing, material pricing, adjustments
for productivity, core inflation, access to materials, and other
special circumstances. Our internal economist continuously
tracks global, national, and regional trends on a monthly
basis, including U.S. dollar exchange rates, energy costs,
global demand, construction volume, labor availability, and
material costs. This is further enhanced by our program- or
project-specific local market study, which is used to develop
data specific to the program or project.
Cumming adheres to the following guidelines of good cost
management:
A thorough understanding of the project goals, deadlines,
and scope: Cumming works with the client at the earliest
phases of the project in order to thoroughly understand the
goals for the project, the constraints and milestones that
need to be met, and the scope of work to be delivered.
Detailed early design estimates: Cumming works with the
project team early in the design process to develop detailed
cost plans across all divisions of work, thereby reducing or
eliminating the use of cost-per-square-foot or lump-sum
line items whenever possible. By working with the team
to provide detailed line items and budgets, this allows
Cumming to guide the team throughout design following an
established cost plan in order to make informed decisions.
Proactive participation through the life of the project:
Using the established cost plan, Cumming works with the
project team throughout design, listening in on interim team
meetings and stepping in when changes occur that alter the
agreed upon cost plan. This interim participation reduces
or eliminates the surprises that come with milestone cost
estimating when final design plans come out, saving the
project both time and money.
Value management/cost trade-offs during the life of the
project: Value management is not only helpful when a
project needs to cut costs. Cumming’s cost management
team constantly looks for opportunities to add value to
projects by utilizing cost trade-off analysis through material
substitutions, alternate means or methods, and life-cycle
cost analysis.
Continued assistance through the bid phase and
construction: Getting a project to the contractor does not
guarantee success. Cumming has extensive experience
working with the project team to evaluate contractor
bidding, schedule of values, buyout strategy, and change
orders to keep the project on track.
Keeping an eye on the total project costs at all times:
Delivering construction costs on budget is only part of the
solution. If the construction budget is met but the other
budgets are not, the project does not succeed. Cumming’s
cost management team has extensive experience both
budgeting and managing the total project costs for our
clients.
Estimate Development
Upon completion of the quantity take-off, market analysis,
and collection of local pricing data, Cumming’s estimators
input the data into our estimating system. Cumming sets
up the estimate Work Breakdown System (WBS) to best
accommodate the needs of the project and to match
the formats of other project estimates. Project general
conditions, general requirements, mark-ups, contingencies,
and escalation factors are added as required to provide a
complete, total estimated construction cost.
City of Cupertino
Cost Management
ccorpusa.com
Estimate QA/QC
Once the estimating data has been compiled into the
estimating system, the estimate is thoroughly reviewed
by the estimating team, the project manager, the vertical
project leader, and an independent reviewer. A detailed
review and comparison of gross floor areas, comparisons
with similar projects or similar scopes of work and previous
phase estimates are performed to ensure accuracy. Areas
of difference between previous estimates are identified and
documented in our variance reports.
Publish Estimate
Upon completion of our internal QA/QC process, the
estimate is published and distributed to the project delivery
team.
Estimate Review with Project Team
Upon completion and delivery of the estimate, the Cumming
estimating team will meet with the project delivery team to
thoroughly review the estimate detail, costs, assumptions,
and allowances to ensure the estimate is a complete
representation of both the documents and the intent of the
design. Any identified changes and adjustments will be
made, and a final revised estimate will be published.
Estimate Reconciliation
Cumming’s cost management group will review and provide
a detailed comparison between our estimates and the
estimates prepared by others (design team, CM, and other
independent estimators). We will identify areas of difference
and meet with the project delivery team and other
estimators to thoroughly review the estimates, assumptions,
and areas of difference. Working with the team, we will
reconcile our estimate with the other parties’ estimates
on a detailed, division by division level. This detailed
reconciliation ensures that all parties are on the same page
and possess a thorough understanding of the project. This
helps eliminate unknowns and incorrect assumptions that
often lead to cost creep later in the project. Upon completion
of reconciliation, we will make required modifications and
re-issue the estimate along with a summary report of the
reconciliation.
Cumming’s proactive cost management approach assures
our clients that they are getting the most value for their
invested dollar, accurate pricing based upon local market
analysis and understanding of the national economy, and
a proven process that is timeless and delivers the goals
and objectives set by the project owner—on time, on
budget, and within the quality standards established at the
beginning of the project.
Exceeding Expectations
Cumming’s approach to managing the team rests on a
foundation of effective communication and teamwork. To
facilitate this approach, we clearly define the roles and
responsibilities of all parties at the start of the project so
that everyone has an opportunity to meet expectations.
During the design phase each discipline lead must attend
design phase progress meetings which are typically
scheduled on a weekly basis. Representatives are held
accountable for assigned action items based on due dates
tracked to the overall design phase milestone schedule.
Weekly meeting minutes are distributed timely and follow-
up on action items occurs in advance of the next meeting to
keep progress on track. We work closely with all consultants
to ensure that each team participant is performing
according to the expectations of the Owner and meeting the
terms of the contract.

insured.
2. Automobile Liability: ISO Form Number CA 00 01 covering any auto (Code 1), or, if Contractor has
no owned autos, then hired autos (Code 8) and non-owned autos (Code 9), with limits no less

3. Workers’ Compensation: As required by the State of California, with Statutory Limits, and

Notice of Cancellation
Each insurance policy shall state that coverage shall not be canceled or allowed to expire, except with written
notice to City 30 days in advance or 10 days in advance if due to non-payment of premiums.
Waiver of Subrogation
Contractor grants to City a waiver of any right to subrogation which any insurer of said Contractor may
acquire against City by virtue of the payment of any loss under such insurance. Contractor agrees to obtain

Contractor shall require and verify that all subcontractors maintain insurance meeting all the requirements
stated herein, and Contractor shall ensure that City is an additional insured on insurance required from

coverage or other special circumstances.
SHOULD ANY OF THE ABOVE DESCRIBED POLICIES BE CANCELLED BEFORE
THE EXPIRATION DATE THEREOF, NOTICE WILL BE DELIVERED IN

Scheduling Philosophy & Approach
Scheduling Methodology
Cumming is skilled in all aspects of scheduling. Our experts
are capable of conducting cursory schedule reviews,
preparing and updating master program and detailed
project schedules, as well as as-built schedules for forensic
analysis purposes. This expertise is described in further
detail below.
Schedule Analysis
The underlying foundation of schedule management rests
on the Critical Path Method (CPM) schedule. Our team has
built thousands of CPM schedules and understands how
they can be manipulated by the underlying adjustments to
floats, leads and lags, duration adjustments, alterations in
logic, and constraints.
We are experts in schedule management and forensic
schedule analysis. We have declared experts in construction
schedule delay and we provide this analysis on a daily basis
as a part of our litigation support services. We define and
represent delays and disruptions in schedules and reflect
what the impacts are and how they can be mitigated. We
are well versed in seeing and exposing delays, disruptions
and hidden acceleration in schedules and we analyze them
for the overall impact and expected cost.
Schedule Communication and Reporting
Our schedules are updated regularly—never less than
once per month; generally more frequently and any delays
are identified and communicated to all parties at the next
regularly scheduled management update meeting. As a
matter of course, we use the schedule as the primary tool
to inform our clients of the critical deadlines the team is
working towards. Schedules are prepared simply and in
both detail and roll-up forms for ease of understanding and
use.
Schedule Maintenance
We believe that a schedule is only valuable if the progress
is measured and evaluated against an agreed baseline.
Schedules should serve not only as a historical view of a
project at a particular moment in time, but as a management
tool that should be used to evaluate and drive results. We
provide project status reporting services for our clients
that include the actual validation of the stated condition of
their schedules. We report the results and evaluate current
performance against baseline goals. Changes typically
impact the schedule. We have tremendous experience
incorporating changes into our schedules and in quickly
identifying net impacts. We also evaluate changes to
determine whether these impacts affect the critical path or
whether they are ancillary and, thus, may not cause a delay
in project completion. We provide our clients with mitigation
options should changes impact the timely completion of a
project.
Schedule Creation
Our schedules are created by professionals skilled in both
forensic and forward scheduling, a unique differentiator that
enables Cumming to foresee and mitigate schedule conflicts
before they arise. Cumming begins each scheduling
assignment by first gaining a fundamental understanding of
project scope. Following a top down approach, we identify
and incorporate critical milestones, ensure adherence to
overarching project parameters, and analyze component
relationships. Requirements are then reviewed forwards and
backwards to ensure that all project elements have been
considered and are in sync.
Schedule Management
We assist our clients in the development of the Design
Work Plan in concert with the actual in-place design teams.
Our staff have managed the design development process
for clients, which allows us to have a ‘real world’ perspective
on the effort required, the relevant and necessary
milestones, and a focus on developing a pre-construction/
design schedule. In addition, we provide management and
oversight of the schedule during construction, ensuring
goals are met and completed according to the timeline.
Approach to Phasing
When it comes to project phasing, understanding the
process and impacts of construction is as important as
quantifying the elements of construction. Looking at the
project from an owner’s perspective is crucial. Will phasing
impact the current operations? Is there a better way to
achieve the project goal through alternative phasing
schemes? These questions, and more, must be asked during
phasing analysis for the project. Cumming team members
have the proven experience required to determine the
impacts to your schedule and budget, and bring the most
value to your project. Schedules should not only serve as an
overall view of a project at a particular moment in time, but
as a management tool that should be used to evaluate and
drive results.
It takes a team
THAT ANTICIPATES AND MITIGATES RISK.

CPM and Pull Planning Integration
Approach
Cumming has developed a Schedule Approach for the project that is rooted in a lean delivery method of minimizing waste
through effective planning. This document will serve to outline that approach to achieve the following goals:
Integrate and Align CPM and Pull Planning
Minimize redundancy and focus on throughput time
Maintain 1:1 relationship
Minimize opportunity for process breakdown
Leverage technology (software) to do what each does best
Trade Partner involvement in entire process
OFE & LLE Process for prefabrication
Clean executable, repeatable, cost effective
Historically accurate for ABC Metrics for continuous improvement
CPM high-level planning is needed for coordination between designers, construction trades, vendors, and the owner at a high
level. Pull Planning is needed to maximize the team’s production on a day-to-day basis. Both processes are more effective and
minimize waste best when they are used in a manner that allows each system to complement the other.

Figures 3 and 4 below are from a current ski resort development current utilizing Cumming for schedule monitoring services.
The project is currently on schedule; however, the project was at risk to miss a major turnover milestone for the coming winter
ski season. Figure 3 shows the path to the ski easement turnover and the -28 day delay to turnover milestone, -3 days past
the required date. Analysis of the schedule and work in place indicate that the delays to this point are the responsibility of
the General Contractor, except for 3-day of weather. After review of the delay allocation, and discussions with the general
contractor, means of mitigating the delay were incorporated into the schedule for an on-time delivery of the ski slope.
Figure 8 shows the Step Analysis for the entire project and the calculated schedule risk due to Float Erosion, Compression and
Schedule Delay. We calculate Schedule Risk as a combination of Schedule Compression, Schedule Delay and Float to give
early visibility of areas of the project add risk to the project. As shown in this example, the project is still on schedule, however
the Finishes show 54 workdays of compression, with 0 days of float. Similarly, Drywall shows 42 workdays of compression,
however as it has 6 days of float, the risk to the project, if the contractor fails to complete the work in a compressed period, is
36 days.

Methodology and technology for estimating.
The delivery of each project on-budget, on-schedule,
and on-quality is our primary goal for every client. This
means much more than administering a project through
weekly site visits, attending meetings, and taking notes.
Cumming’s project managers proactively lead, challenge,
motivate and direct teams to generate superb results that
save money and time, mitigate risk, and achieve our clients’
delivery goals. We are advocates for our clients and we
take great pride and ownership in everything we do. We
are pro-active leaders and ensure that the documents
used to manage the process are clearly incorporated in the
contracts with consultants and the contracting community.
Setting expectations upfront and early is a key to a project’s
success.
The Cumming approach is founded on principal
involvement, and our staffing plans vary from project to
project and adjust to meet the needs of our clients and the
project’s specifics. All projects are led by an executive (VP-
level), and supported by a day-to-day Project Manager and
Cost Manager who will be intricately involved in the project
from inception through completion. As projects of this
type always have ups and downs in terms of involvement,
the dedicated team is supported by localized resources of
dedicated project, cost, and schedule management staff to
drive our overall efforts and meet tight impactful deadlines.
One of our immediate tasks upon engagement is to set up
a project governance structure that encourages efficient,
thoughtful, and proactive decision-making. This governance
structure guides not only the relationship between
Cumming and ownership, but the entire project relationship
for all other consultants, including but not limited to the
architect, construction manager (CM), engineers, and
FF&E and specialty consultants. It takes into account the
corporate structure of clients, the key internal and external
stakeholders that must be engaged, and establishes a
workflow cadence that is agreed upon at the outset of a
project.
We look to manage the relationship with the Client as a
partnership, with the executive driving this at the corporate
level, and the cost management lead on a day-to-day level.
Continuous improvement is rooted in our DNA, and beyond
advocating daily feedback, the Cumming executive will
participate in a monthly meeting with the Client’s lead and
our team lead. On a quarterly basis, an independent review
will happen in the form of a one-page feedback session.
Cumming also worked with clients to establish project
KPI’s, and in doing so, we emphasize the word key – it
has to be essential to achieve the aim of project delivery
with compliance. During quarterly reviews, the KPIs are
systematically measured and reported on. On an annual
basis we reevaluate with the Client what is the key that
really makes a difference and realign with the needs of
the program. KPIs cannot be static, they adjust as projects
evolve. When required, pull together a specialist “task force”
of team members that are highly well-versed in a particular
aspect of the project – from an understanding of the local
market, to the specifics of MEP estimating, to negotiating
skills with subcontractors.

Pre-Construction Phase Methodology
During the pre-design and design phases, our team will
confer with your staff concerning specific project goals
relative to project scope, project budget, project schedule,
design concepts, and quality as a basis for formulating a
detailed development plan for the project.
One of the main objectives during this period is to provide
a conceptual cost budget and a preliminary “Critical Path
Method” development schedule for the project. Cumming
will also assist the design team with the evaluation of
proposed systems, equipment and materials, and will advise
you on alternatives to optimize cost effectiveness, quality
standards and system life cycle costs and benefits (value
engineering).
Budget and Cost Management
In order to provide reliable cost management services, a
thorough understanding of the global, national, and local
markets for such specific drivers as material commodities,
availability and cost, as well as labor availability and
cost—which can and do affect the cost of a project—must
be tracked and known. Cumming starts by developing a
crew-based database system that utilizes current local
labor rates, workers compensation, sales tax, subcontractor
mark-ups, equipment pricing, material pricing, adjustments
for productivity, core inflation, access to materials, and other
special circumstances. Our internal economist continuously
tracks global, national, and regional trends on a monthly
basis, including U.S. dollar exchange rates, energy costs,
global demand, construction volume, labor availability, and
material costs. This is further enhanced by our program- or
project-specific local market study, which is used to develop
data specific to the program or project.
Cumming adheres to the following guidelines of good cost
management:
A thorough understanding of the project goals, deadlines,
and scope: Cumming works with the client at the earliest
phases of the project in order to thoroughly understand the
goals for the project, the constraints and milestones that
need to be met, and the scope of work to be delivered.
Detailed early design estimates: Cumming works with the
project team early in the design process to develop detailed
cost plans across all divisions of work, thereby reducing or
eliminating the use of cost-per-square-foot or lump-sum
line items whenever possible. By working with the team
to provide detailed line items and budgets, this allows
Cumming to guide the team throughout design following an
established cost plan in order to make informed decisions.
Proactive participation through the life of the project:
Using the established cost plan, Cumming works with the
project team throughout design, listening in on interim team
meetings and stepping in when changes occur that alter the
agreed upon cost plan. This interim participation reduces
or eliminates the surprises that come with milestone cost
estimating when final design plans come out, saving the
project both time and money.
Value management/cost trade-offs during the life of the
project: Value management is not only helpful when a
project needs to cut costs. Cumming’s cost management
team constantly looks for opportunities to add value to
projects by utilizing cost trade-off analysis through material
substitutions, alternate means or methods, and life-cycle
cost analysis.
Continued assistance through the bid phase and
construction: Getting a project to the contractor does not
guarantee success. Cumming has extensive experience
working with the project team to evaluate contractor
bidding, schedule of values, buyout strategy, and change
orders to keep the project on track.
Keeping an eye on the total project costs at all times:
Delivering construction costs on budget is only part of the
solution. If the construction budget is met but the other
budgets are not, the project does not succeed. Cumming’s
cost management team has extensive experience both
budgeting and managing the total project costs for our
clients.
Estimate Development
Upon completion of the quantity take-off, market analysis,
and collection of local pricing data, Cumming’s estimators
input the data into our estimating system. Cumming sets
up the estimate Work Breakdown System (WBS) to best
accommodate the needs of the project and to match
the formats of other project estimates. Project general
conditions, general requirements, mark-ups, contingencies,
and escalation factors are added as required to provide a
complete, total estimated construction cost.
City of Cupertino
Cost Management
ccorpusa.com
Estimate QA/QC
Once the estimating data has been compiled into the
estimating system, the estimate is thoroughly reviewed
by the estimating team, the project manager, the vertical
project leader, and an independent reviewer. A detailed
review and comparison of gross floor areas, comparisons
with similar projects or similar scopes of work and previous
phase estimates are performed to ensure accuracy. Areas
of difference between previous estimates are identified and
documented in our variance reports.
Publish Estimate
Upon completion of our internal QA/QC process, the
estimate is published and distributed to the project delivery
team.
Estimate Review with Project Team
Upon completion and delivery of the estimate, the Cumming
estimating team will meet with the project delivery team to
thoroughly review the estimate detail, costs, assumptions,
and allowances to ensure the estimate is a complete
representation of both the documents and the intent of the
design. Any identified changes and adjustments will be
made, and a final revised estimate will be published.
Estimate Reconciliation
Cumming’s cost management group will review and provide
a detailed comparison between our estimates and the
estimates prepared by others (design team, CM, and other
independent estimators). We will identify areas of difference
and meet with the project delivery team and other
estimators to thoroughly review the estimates, assumptions,
and areas of difference. Working with the team, we will
reconcile our estimate with the other parties’ estimates
on a detailed, division by division level. This detailed
reconciliation ensures that all parties are on the same page
and possess a thorough understanding of the project. This
helps eliminate unknowns and incorrect assumptions that
often lead to cost creep later in the project. Upon completion
of reconciliation, we will make required modifications and
re-issue the estimate along with a summary report of the
reconciliation.
Cumming’s proactive cost management approach assures
our clients that they are getting the most value for their
invested dollar, accurate pricing based upon local market
analysis and understanding of the national economy, and
a proven process that is timeless and delivers the goals
and objectives set by the project owner—on time, on
budget, and within the quality standards established at the
beginning of the project.
Exceeding Expectations
Cumming’s approach to managing the team rests on a
foundation of effective communication and teamwork. To
facilitate this approach, we clearly define the roles and
responsibilities of all parties at the start of the project so
that everyone has an opportunity to meet expectations.
During the design phase each discipline lead must attend
design phase progress meetings which are typically
scheduled on a weekly basis. Representatives are held
accountable for assigned action items based on due dates
tracked to the overall design phase milestone schedule.
Weekly meeting minutes are distributed timely and follow-
up on action items occurs in advance of the next meeting to
keep progress on track. We work closely with all consultants
to ensure that each team participant is performing
according to the expectations of the Owner and meeting the
terms of the contract.

provide an array of services to facilitate optimization of the properties and the fulfillment of the projects
economic and community service goals.
The initial focus will be a “go\no-go” scope leading to preliminary recommendation for the City Hall and
Sports Center sites. We will determine in the “go\no-go” phase of work if there are market and
financially viable opportunities for public/private development.
Subsequently, City Council may authorize more detailed programming and financing plans on these and
the other sites identified above.
Our proposed phases reflect our scope of work based on our understanding of the City’s prioritized needs:
1. Cost neutral solution
2. Renovated/replaced City Hall with incorporated public space
3. Renovate/replace aging public facilities
4. Public service elements on all properties currently providing public services
5. BMR housing
Therefore, the proposed scope of work is anticipated to include the following phases and services that proceeds
from analysis through implementation.

Scope of Work
7.Create preliminary City Hall Site Plan by
evaluating potential parcels/lots identified on
the site not needed to support civic uses that
can be sold, offered for long-term lease for
private revenue producing uses and
placemaking opportunities that can: (i) create a
source of funds to offset costs associated with
new public facilities. further catalyze desired
commercial or mixed-use development nearby;
and (ii) further catalyze desired commercial or
mixed-use development nearby;
8.In this Phase, we will participate in Working
Session 2 to debrief on modifications to Phase 1
conclusions and present the analytical results
from Phase 2.
9.Following the working session, and
incorporating its discussions, we will present our
findings, conclusions, and recommended
actions in a summary document suitable for
internal use, as well as for presentation to third
parties, such as public stakeholders, potential
investors, etc.
B. Scenario Programming: City Hall Focus (Continued)
We will work with City officials to develop a specific Stakeholder Strategy tailored to meet the project’s
needs. For purposes of our scope, we have included three of the six potential activities to inform, engage,
and gather input from the identified stakeholders throughout the development of redevelopment option:
a.Stakeholder Interviews - We can conduct interviews with key stakeholders in the community to gather
input on assets in the area and potential opportunities to create catalytic development opportunities
that support needed civic uses.
b.Focus Groups - We can lead focus group meetings to get targeted input on the development plan effort
or as a way to collect feedback on the draft vision particularly with individuals that may not participate in
the stakeholder interviews or other meetings along with the real estate development community.
c.Public Open Houses - We can hold public meetings that allow the community to stop- by during a
defined time period and ask questions about development options and the process.
d.Charrette/Community Workshop - We could conduct a half to full day workshop focused on the
development plan vision and establishment of values. This workshop could include: an evening event;
small group workshop exercises; open studio hours for the consultant team to work and the public is
invited to stop by and provide input; and a presentation by the consultant team on the outcomes of the
workshop.
e.Pop-Up Events - We could conduct pop-up events that bring activities and information to engage the
community where they are. Such events would be staged in busy locations. Pop-up events could be
conducted to gather input on the development vision.
f.Web -based Outreach - We can develop a project-specific web page for use on the City website to project
updates, meeting notifications, and collect any desired survey data to help guide the planning process.
C. Stakeholder Engagement (Optional)
Scope of Work
1.Evaluate various project delivery approaches to achieve schedule, quality of construction, and reduced costs
for public facilities (City Hall, fire station), including Design-Bid-Build, Design-Build, Progressive Design-Build,
GC/CM, 63-30 financing, and other available delivery approaches authorized by State law.
2.Identify potential philanthropic contributions toward civic facilities and for any below market housing that
may be included on the site (e.g., Apple Affordable Housing Fund)
3.Recommend project delivery and funding strategy approach for new City Hall along with catalyst
development projects.
4.Provide the following marketing, recruitment, and development agreement negotiation services:
a.Due Diligence Check List. We will identify a list of due diligence that should be completed as part of
the proposed public and private development. We can also contract directly and manage these
services for an additional fee as needed or desired. The reports identified by the checklist would
ideally be prepared prior to the issuance of a Development Offering or Developer RFQ/RFP for the
City Hall site.
I.This list may include survey, title report, environmental report (Phase 1 and/or 2),
geotechnical studies, environmental checklist, appraisal, and traffic impact analysis. Often
such documents are provided to developers who register as interested parties during the
Development Offering, RFQ/RFP process.
b.Draft Project Development Schedule. A dynamic document (excel, Microsoft Project, or other
common file type) that shows the expected major phases extending from any City development plan
for its Civic Center property to groundbreaking for multiple phases of development.
I.This will be a conceptual schedule since the timing and duration of future events is by
nature uncertain. While actual timing will almost certainly differ from forecast timing, this is
a valuable tool that can help stakeholders understand a reasonable schedule of events.
c.Draft Term Sheet. A draft term sheet will be prepared including the proposed/ recommended terms
of the development transaction for the available public land proposed to be sold or leased, including
transaction/purchase price, developer requirements (e.g., construction of public facilities, certain
commercial or mix-use development, shared parking, etc.), and expected roles and responsibilities
for all parties.
I.The purpose of a draft term sheet is to support future discussions and negotiations with
potential developers, and to ensure expectations are achieved. Some or many expected
deal points may also be included in Development Offering or RFQ/RFP documents.
D. Implementation Strategies & Development Recruitment
Scope of Work
d.Development Recruitment. All marketing and solicitation materials will be prepared to recruit the
desired development. We will use either a Development Offering process or a two-step process
of a Request for Qualifications (RFQ) and Request for Proposal (RFP) to recruit and create a highly
competitive selection process. A scoring and evaluation system will also be created to assist in the
selection of a preferred development and team. Below are some key Development Recruitment
elements:
I.Contact potential developers, brokers, and other and create buzz around the
development opportunity;
II.Manage review and developer submittal ranking process
III.Manage stakeholder meetings to discuss and/or rank submittals
IV.Manage interviews with short-list of developers
V.Manage meeting(s) to discuss and select preferred development team
D. Implementation Strategies & Development Recruitment
continued)
1.Negotiate preliminary deal terms (Letter of Intent or Memorandum of Understanding) with preferred
developer/tenants(s) and negotiate and manage execution of purchase and sale/lease/development
agreement or other P3 agreement with the preferred developer. Assist with any closing conditions
leading to construction.
a.Every purchase and sale or lease and development agreement of public property is an
opportunity to develop a public-private partnership achieving far greater results than what can
organically occur in the marketplace
E. Developer Negotiation/Transaction Closing
Scope of Work
