Hello, Council of Cupertino City,
Please delay the funding of the Bollinger Road Corridor Design. The
current traffic on Bollinger Road is crowed in the traffic time. I don't think
it is a good idea to change it into one lane road.
Please put my comments into the public record.

I forgot to mention that my family and I have been living at W Estates Dr in Cupertino for the
last decade, in a corner house bounded by 3 streets Bollinger Rd, W Estates Dr, and Estates
Dr, on the part of S curve on Bollinger where visibility is limited due to the road curves.
Our backyard is facing and is right next to Bollinger Rd. In 2019, a SUV crashed past our
backyard fence after colliding with another car. The SUV crossed through our backyard after
going past the fence, and crashed past the outer wall of the sunroom into the middle of the
sunroom, where my husband, I, our baby, and a neighbor were at that time. I sat on a chair
facing the fence/Bollinger Rd and saw the SUV going towards us/the sunroom. However, my
husband holding our baby stood up facing me, so he could not see the SUV as it went towards
us. Thankfully he swiftly moved away upon hearing my scream. The SUV finally stopped in
the middle of the sunroom but towards the west side of the structure, missing us by a mere few
feet. Here's a video of the car inside our
sunroom https://photos.app.goo.gl/oB7qEZuWA6u1BkKv9. I also attached more pictures of
the accident and damages: https://photos.app.goo.gl/dNYyZ5EeHQ4Va8tf8
Thankfully the roof didn't collapse on us when the car crashed into and when it backed out, we
didn't get hurt by any shattered window glasses, and there's no gas leaks causing explosion!
The second car (Sedan) which collided into the SUV on Bollinger thankfully stopped at the
corner of Bollinger and Estates before it hit our fence, but this second car could easily crash
into our house too had it been on a higher speed and the driver was not as capable.
Having lived here for many years, I have heard and saw several accidents on Boliinger Rd
near the back of our house. One night a few years ago a car crashed into a tree on Bollinger in
front of the house on Bollinger (San Jose side), a few houses to our East. Thankfully the car
was stopped by the tree and didn't crash into the house.
A few years ago, I saw a minivan crashed into the concrete low fence of a house facing
Bollinger Rd, a couple blocks West of our house. Again, thankfully the car only damaged the
concrete fence and not go past the fence crashing into the house.
Bollinger Rd is a very dangerous street because it is a 4 lane wide street where most vehicles
go 45-50 mph despite the 35 mph posted speed limit and there's the S curve portion where the
road is winding and visibility is low even during the day time. There's no bright street light at
night to improve the visibility on the curve. I saw lots of vehicles turning left from Estates Dr
merging to Bollinger Rd, where the S curve prevents vehicles turning left to see oncoming
traffic, despite the large sign saying no turn left. Even turning right from Estates to Bollinger
is very difficult to see oncoming traffic due to the road curve. So there are a lot of potential
vehicular accidents right next to our house. I saw lots of large vehicles such as buses and
trucks passing by as well throughout the day.
Please prioritize the safety of Cupertino residents and support Bollinger Traffic Study!

I ask today that you support the Bollinger Road traffic study and design work.
The Bollinger Road Study is necessary to address the many safety issues on that Road,
including two deaths and many near-misses. It is a small amount to spend on an important
topic which impacts the safety of all our residents, many of whom are children going to
school. Many of the residents on Bollinger even struggle to get out of their own driveways
safely because of the fast moving cars.
Some community members, many not from Cupertino, have raised fears that traffic flow for

explores designs that could improve resident safety. It does not fund any construction work
on that street.
The traffic study and design work are completely funded by a grant except for the required
20% matching funds. This is a great way to leverage our budget to meet our goals. Our
budget should reflect that we prioritize the safety of our residents, and this project does that.
Thank you for your work on behalf of Cupertino.

Honorable Councilmembers:
As a Bollinger Road resident, a pedestrian, and a cyclist, I implore you to keep the
Bollinger Road Corridor Design project in the CIP budget. The busy arterial is also a
primarily residential street. It's dangerous. The bike lanes are a mixed blessing,
since for the most part, they're completely in the door zone of parked cars. (I've been
"doored" once, years ago--in a bike lane.) Cars speed by at up to 50 mph. Please do
the study!!

Subject:Strong Opposition to the Proposal of Converting Bollinger to Single Lane

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

Dear Cupertino City Council,
I am writing to you as a resident who lives just a block away from Bollinger and a regular commuter on Bollinger Rd, to express my strong opposition to the recent proposal of converting Bollinger from a double lane to a single lane road, with one of the lanes being designated as a bike lane. While I understand and appreciate the council's efforts to promote cycling and other eco-friendly modes of transportation, I am deeply concerned that this specific change would exacerbate the existing traffic conditions, rather than alleviating them.
Bollinger rd is a critical artery for many commuters in our community, serving as a key connector from Lawrence Express to De Anza for several neighborhoods, schools, and business districts. During rush hours, the road is already heavily congested, with traffic often slowing to a crawl. The road's layout, which includes several curves and limited visibility in sections, further complicates the traffic flow and demands the utmost attention and caution from all road users.
Reducing Bollinger to a single lane for vehicular traffic, in my opinion, will not only fail to solve the existing traffic issues but will indeed make them significantly worse. The introduction of a bike lane, while beneficial in theory, must be carefully considered against the overall impact on traffic dynamics, safety, and the practicalities of daily commuting for the majority of the road users.
Furthermore, I am concerned about the safety implications for both cyclists and motorists. This road lacks traffic lights (as residents we raised this issue many times in the past but was ignored) and its current design and visibility issues could pose heightened risks if a significant portion of the road is reallocated for bicycles, especially without comprehensive measures to ensure safe coexistence between different types of road users.
In light of these concerns, I strongly urge the City Council to reconsider this proposal. I advocate for a more thorough analysis of the potential impacts, including traffic studies and consultations with traffic engineers, local businesses, emergency services, and the community at large. It is crucial that any changes to our city's infrastructure not only promote sustainable transportation options but also consider the practical implications for all residents and ensure the safety and efficiency of our roads.
Thank you for considering my concerns. I look forward to your response and to a solution that best serves the interests of our entire community.
Sincerely,
Amanda C

Dear Esteemed Mayor Mohan, Cupertino City Council and Staff,
I encourage Council to support the Bollinger Road Design and Traffic Analysis CIP item.
The safety of our residents should be prioritized. This short stretch of road has seen two
fatalities in just the past few years, and many more accidents and near-misses. Many
pedestrians and cyclists avoid using Bollinger at all, due to the numerous safety issues
including vehicle speeding above the limit, the curved road and bike lanes next to parked cars
which cause bike lane incursions and potential “dooring”, and unsafe pedestrian crossings
including no marked crossings for ½ mile stretches. I am from Cupertino and frequently drive
on Bollinger. The current design is clearly unsafe and inadequate for both drivers and
pedestrians, especially near the De Anza intersection at Trader Joe's. I see people walking to
and from Trader Joe's either into the local neighborhoods or to the bus stop but struggling to
navigate all the traffic. The curved segment past Blaney is almost designed to encourage
speeding. When our house was being renovated for major improvements, my family
temporarily lived on the other side of Bollinger in West San Jose. We saw how difficult it is to
walk across even for a simple visit to the library or to shop at businesses on the Cupertino side
at Bollinger and Blaney.
This CIP item is to perform a traffic study, and then make a design using that information.
Some community members, many not from Cupertino, have raised fears that traffic flow for
cars will be affected. This CIP item does not approve any construction changes on Bollinger.
It is merely a step toward deciding what we as a city want to do to address the real safety
concerns. It's a chance to examine improvements that could save lives.
The study and design have received a state grant covering 80% of the funding, with only 20%
required in matching funds ($100K). This is a modest expenditure that we have in our CIP
budget, especially considering that previous year CIP projects have come in under budget so
there are extra funds.
Thank you for considering my input, and your work on behalf of Cupertino.

Hi,
Please maintain Bollinger Road's existing lanes. The traffic is already congested during the
rush hours. If the 4 lanes are to be reduced to 2, the traffic congestion will definitely get
worse and the traffic safety will be immensely degraded.
Besides, we, the residents in the neighborhood, should have a way to express our opinion
regarding this issue. Your decision will impact our lives immeasurably. Please make your
process of decision making transparent. Moreover, please delay the funding of the Bollinger
Road corridor design.
Thank you.

Dear City Council members,
We are very concerned that there’s a suggestion to convert the Bollinger Road from four lanes to two lanes.
Bollinger Road has already been a busy road with a lot of cars, especially during commute time. The traffic caused
by lane reduction will negatively impact people’s lives. Pedestrian & bicycle safety can be done by s few spot
adjustment, there is no need to do the lane reduction for the road.
The pros far outweigh the cons to keep the way it is. Please don’t do lane conversion!!
Thank you very much for your understanding and support!

Respected Mayor Mohan, Vice-Mayor Fruen, and Councilmembers,
I ask today that you support the Bollinger Road traffic study and design work.
My good friend lives off East Estates Drive that connects with Bollinger. Many years ago, I made the decision to
NOT use Bollinger because of the curve in the road that
1) obscures cars that are on Bollinger Drive from the driver trying to exit East Estates Drive, and
2) obscures cars that are on E. Estates Drive from the drivers on Bollinger Road.
You cannot enter or leave E. Estates safely at that intersection.
Since my friend uses Safeway, that makes the drive for her either circuitous out of her neighborhood, or extremely
dangerous if she uses Bollinger.
The Bollinger Road Study is necessary to address the many safety issues on that Road, including two deaths and
many near-misses. It is a small amount to spend on an important topic which impacts the safety of all our residents,
many of whom are children going to school. Many of the residents on Bollinger even struggle to get out of their own

Dear Esteemed Mayor Mohan, Cupertino City Council and Staff,
I encourage Council to support the Bollinger Road Design and Traffic Analysis CIP item.
Bollinger Road from De Anza Blvd to Lawrence Expressway goes through a residential
neighborhood. There are a large number of students that could use it to walk or bike to their
elementary school, Hyde Middle School, and Cupertino High School. This road needs to be
safe for all. The collision data from the study suggests that improvements can and should be
made to enhance safety.
We need to prioritize the safety of our residents. I understand that drivers feel the pedestrian
traffic is a nuisance and they simply want to speed through that area to get to their
destination, but we should care about the people that live in our community, whose first
choice may be to walk or bike, but currently feel unsafe in doing so.
I enthusiastically support doing a traffic study, and then make a design using that
information. We need to start this first step toward deciding what we as a city want to do to
address real safety concerns.
The majority of this study will be funded through a grant. This is a modest expenditure that
we have in our CIP budget, especially considering that previous year CIP projects have come
in under budget so there are extra funds. I believe it is worth it to protect both the safety of
our residents who live there and those who need to use that road.

Dear Mayor Mohan, Councilmembers and City Manager Wu,
I ask you to support the Bollinger Road traffic study and design work.
Some community members, many not from Cupertino, have raised fears that traffic throughput will change. This
CIP item doesn't approve construction, but only funds a portion of a traffic study and explores designs that could
improve resident safety. Eighty percent of the study is even paid for through a grant, so we are really leveraging
our city funds.
This CIP item is about safety, though, and not just traffic throughput. There have been two fatalities on Bollinger
Avenue in the past few years, and collisions and near-misses. This analysis and design will positively impact the
safety of all our residents, many of whom are children going to school at Hyde Middle, Cupertino High, and
Lynbrook High.
I have biked many times on my way to and from Cupertino high school via Bollinger Rd and to Lynbrook to meet
friends so this study could be very important to get important insights into resident safety.
Our budget can go farther and still meet our goals of improved safety for our residents. Please let this remain on
the CIP list for this coming year.

City Council and Staff,
Please do not continue with any studies or projects related to the Bollinger
Rd Corridor RE-Design.
This is low priority item/project that has not at all benefited from public
comments and outreach.
I believe that the survey as well as the traffic study were done 'during Covid' which
we all should understand was not a good time to get useful data.
Any study performed in the past and particularly during a dramatic decrease of cars
on the roads due to pandemic, will be entirely inadequate.
In addition to that, a survey that is completed during the same pandemic period is not
useful for a project like this.
Top that with the fact that both Cupertino and San Jose are currently, and will
continue to, increase both full time resident AND daytime/commuter residents.
This will dramatically increase the number of automobiles, and potentially other
modes of transportation (bike, bus, etc). Any study performed in the past and
particularly during a dramatic decrease of cars on the roads due to pandemic, should
be considered very poor data.
Limiting Bollinger Rd. to one driving lane in each direction would risk creating a
situation where commuters/drivers will choose routes thru neighborhood streets to
avoid a very congested main artery that would basically become a neighborhood
street with far too many automobiles.
Both Lawrence Expy and DeAnza Blvd, and likely Miller Ave will be more congested
in the not so distant future and with Bollinger being one of the connecting, and well
used arteries, the result could very well be that these roadways suffer greatly in the
congestion index.
Bollinger is also a route that public safety vehicles use.... they need room to get
around traffic !!!
AND... we, as a city, have higher priorities and NOT enough money.
Thank you '

Dear Mayor Mohan, Vice-Mayor Fruen, and Councilmembers,
I write today in support of the Bollinger Road traffic study and design work.
Traffic safety has already been identified by our City as a priority for our residents. We need to do
our homework (aka “Traffic Study”) to find the best possible solutions to dangerous areas such as
Bollinger.
Cupertino needs to leverage all opportunities to make our precious dollars go as far as possible. It
would be penny wise and pound foolish to turn away an 80% grant for the Traffic Study. We cannot
afford to not take advantage of these grant $.
This is a great way to make our budget go farther and still meet our stated goals. I encourage you to
let this remain on the CIP list.

This is Jian He, a Cupertino resident and a Walk-Bike Cupertino member. I heard that you are
going to make decisions on the CIP items this evening and I hope you will approve the
Bollinger Road traffic study and design work.
There have been many safety issues on Bollinger, including two deaths and many near-misses.
I personally biked there multiple times to pick up medicines from Walgreen. It was frightening
to bike along speedy cars on the narrow lane. Please approve the funds on this important
project which will definitely impact the safety of all our residents, many of whom are children
going to school at Hyde Middle, Cupertino High, and Lynbrook High, and adults like me who
bike around the town to get errands done.
So glad to hear that 80% of the study is already funded through a grant. This would be a great
way to make our budget go farther and still meet our goals. I encourage you to let this remain
on the CIP list. Thank you so much for your good work for our city Cupertino. May God bless
you and guide you in all these tasks in public service!

Blessings,
Jian

Hi City Council,
Please don’t change the Bollinger Road into one way road. As a resident who has a boy who
enrolled in the John Muir Elementary, my family and I drive on the Bollinger road multiple
times to pick up and send my boy to school. The two way traffic is MUCH more convenient
for parents and students live nearby. I cannot imagine how much more traffic jam we will
have if this very important road becomes one way only. That means that we have to reroute a
long way and spend more time on the way every day. The one way Bollinger will make other
parallel roads more jammed because people need to drive around to get the places they want to
go.
Thanks,

Dear Cupertino City,
My name is Michael Zhang and I am a Cupertino resident. I oppose to reduce the
Bollinger road from 2 lanes to single lane (on each direction) for the Bollinger Road.
Bollinger Road is a major road for Cupertino and West San Jose residents. There are
already bike lanes on Bollinger road, and reduce 2 lanes to one lane for Bollinger
Road will cause heavy traffic.
I suggest the City Staff to use that project money to do more important task for the
Cupertino residents instead for the Bollinger road lane reduction.
Thanks,

To whom it may concern,
I saw the proposal to change Bollinger Rd to 1 lane road. This sounds like an absurd
proposal from someone do not live in the area, or do not need to comminute to work.
Please consider the hardworking people who pay you all the tax in the area, who also
need to commute daily on this road. Changing it to a 1 lane road will not only be a
disaster to the traffic, but also create more pollution because of the traffic jam.

Dear Mayor Mohan, Vice-Mayor Fruen, and Councilmembers,
I am writing to you today to urge you to support the Bollinger Road traffic study and design work.
Funding a study means providing real data to back up what residents are already experiencing. As a
former Cupertino High School student who still regularly bikes on Bollinger Road, I have
experienced many close calls with cars. It’s hard not to think about the two residents we’ve already
lost to the unsafe conditions on Bollinger. This study would benefit not just me, but our students at
Hyde Middle School, Cupertino High School, and Lynbrook High School.
This study also won’t have a traffic impact— it just means that we will have a better idea of the
issues on Bollinger Road and how we can improve them for our students and the many residents who
bike on Bollinger or walk alongside it. Eighty percent of the study is already paid for through a
grant, so the fiscal impact would be minimal. With a tight budget this year, it’s more important than
ever that we make use of grant money, rather than deferring this study and having to pay more later.
I strongly encourage you to include this study on the CIP list.
Thank you for your work on behalf of Cupertino.
Sincerely,
Juliet Shearin

Good afternoon Mayor Mohan, Vice-Mayor Fruen, and Councilmembers,
I am writing to you today solely in my capacity as a resident, and not as a representative of the TICC
commission, to support the Bollinger Road traffic study and design work.
I live a short walk from Bollinger, and it is the shortest route to many destinations, but I could never
consider biking on Bollinger due to the many safety issues on Bollinger, including two deaths.
The city spends much more on much less. This project addresses public safety and the quality of life
of many residents, including children going to school at Hyde, CHS, and Lynbrook.
Since this CIP item doesn't approve construction, but only funds a portion of a traffic study and
explores designs that could improve resident safety, it can’t negatively affect traffic.
This is a great way to make our budget go farther, given the 80% grant funding. I encourage you to
let this remain on the CIP list to 5x our money.
Thank you for your time and consideration!
Best,
Emma

Dear Mayor and city council,
I am a long time Cupertino resident and recently a little bit concerned about Cupertino's funds crisis
when
see city may potentially cut some services or have people maintain streets or trees by themselves.
On another end, we heard that there might be come with the Bollinger road project which could cost
4Millions
for 5 years funds plan. Though the money might not all come from Cupertino city, it still needs not small
amount
of money from city. This really raises the question that why we spend so much money on a project which
does not
serve people's real needs.
Bollinger road is a heavily used road and many people use it everyday for work, shopping. The needs for
people driving through this road is pretty heavy. We need it for people's daily life while those money could
be and
should be used in more needed area. Please help to consider delay the funds allocation to the Bolling
road project and
thank you in advance for considering our voice.

My name is Geoff Hall and I live just off Bollinger Rd, at Hyde Avenue. I only recently learned of the study for possible changes to
Bollinger
In many ways I should be a beneficiary of any Bollinger Rd work as I regularly commute and shop by bike, and I think one stated
intent is to improve things for bike riders and pedestrians.
In the mornings I head north along Hyde to cross Bollinger. In the evenings I travel south along Tantau, travel briefly westwards
along Bollinger before turning left into Hyde.
Most weeks I travel further along Bollinger by bike, either eastwards to the block of shops near CVS on Moorpark or westwards to
the library or to cross De Anza and head via Stelling to the shops on Stevens Creek.
In general, I find Bollinger to feel pretty safe with the marked bike lanes as they are. There are two exceptions where work could
immediately be done to improve things, one of these being a distinct safety hazard.
The first safety issue arises from the general lane layout on Bollinger. For much of the length of the road there are no dedicated turn
provisions, with two traffic lanes in each direction, bike lanes and reserved space for parking. Elsewhere there is no car parking
provision and in some cases a dedicated turn lane. The transition between these can cause problems. I hope that my included link
to a Google Streetview picture will show the problem on westbound Bollinger just before Hyde:
https://www.google.com/maps/@37.3106894,-122.0093419,3a,37.5y,264.87h,87.15t/data=!3m6!1e1!3m4!1sPY3bktvHVB1PDh5qF-
ucIA!2e0!7i16384!8i8192?entry=ttu
The marked lanes, including the bike lane, move towards the right in order to make space for a turn lane into Hyde. The problem is
that cars are legally allowed to park where the bike lane is already moving right, narrowing the lane and potentially forcing bikes
into the main traffic lanes. It is rare for a car to be parked there but it has happened and that makes for a very scary situation,
especially in the rush hour at night. There may be other similar locations but that is the one that I am aware of.
The second safety issue arises from the lane markings on eastbound Bollinger just east of the junction with Miller until the turn for
the Safeway car park. These were recently repainted, keeping a large blank area to the right and directing Safeways traffic to stay in
the main traffic lane until the entrance has been reached. Previously such traffic was encouraged to stay right and allow through
traffic to pass on the main lanes to the left. This change may well have been well intentioned to make things safer for bikes and
pedestrians, but it has made things worse. It is now much more difficult to judge the intentions of the drivers, making it somewhat
more scary to be biking past the Safeway entrance. In addition I've seen a near accident where the main traffic lanes were going
slowly and a driver wishing to go into the Safeways car park went through the empty area, only for a driver obeying the markings to
do a right turn into the car park, causing a near miss. I believe that the previous lane markings were safer all round. If the recent
changes were intended as a safety enhancement it makes me question the methodology involved.
For the general question of whether to make spot improvements or to reduce to a single traffic lane in both directions, I mentioned
the issue to my family and they were fairly incredulous that road narrowing would be seriously considered. As well as the wasted
travel time and dubious benefits, I would think there would be a higher density of slow moving traffic and some additional air
pollution hazards for people living nearby.
I am aware that there are dangerous aspects to Bolliinger Road as it currently exists, the most egregious of which are, in my opinion,
the multiple places where traffic wishing to turn left into a side street must block the flow of traffic behind. I think that much could
be done by reducing the portions of Bolliinger where street parking is allowed and using the freed up space to make dedicated turn
lanes.
I also suggest that any studies aimed at improving road conditions take a long look at traffic patterns by Hyde Middle School at
pickup and dropoff times.
Thanks,

Honorable Council Members:
If we are serious about protecting the lives of our bicyclists and pedestrians, it would behoove us to include in this
year‘s CIP list a study of Bollinger Rd..
As a founding member of our Cupertino Bicycle Pedestrian Commission, I am concerned about these issues. I also
remember former Cupertino Planning Director Steve Piaseki saying, “We move car traffic through Cupertino very
well - perhaps too well…”
Unfortunately Cupertino was laid out in an era where little regard was given to any means of transportation other
than cars.
But times are changing, and with growing concerns about global environmental issues, it’s important for Cupertino
to uphold its reputation as a city of innovation by improving Bollinger Rd. - and saving lives in the process.

Dear City Clerk and Council,
My name is Li and I am a resident close to Bollinger. I use Bollinger at least 4 times a day to send and pick up my
kids.
During rush hour of picking up kids, Bollinger is extremely busy and we have to wait one or two red light to pass
Miller and Johnson. If it is one lane, the waiting time will be double or triple. It is really not convenient for the
residents near by.
Thank you so much for considering our opinion.

I have two high school students in our household. They have been biking to school since middle school. Our home
is right off Bollinger and Miller. Our teens now commute to high school everyday. They also use their bikes to get
to their tutoring off De Anza.
The problem with this road is that west towards De Anza becomes very windy so drivers sometimes do not see
cyclists like my sons commuting along Bollinger as cars speeds are greater than that of cyclists.
I urge those in power to invest in our safety as it is vital to keeping the neighborhoods safe. Please support the

Hi, I heard that Bollinger rd is going to be a one lane rd for cars. No, this is not acceptable. I
have two kids in Hyde Middle School. It will be a mess if Bollinger rd is reduced to one lane
for cars. Almost all kids are dropped off and picked up by parents using cars, not bikes. Even
with two lanes, it is still very crowded in the morning and mid afternoon.

Dear Sir / Madam,
as a cupertino resident, I strongly against the Bollinger Road Corridor plan to change the 4 auto lanes to
two. Cupertino doesn't have the fund and the new design will make the congested Bollinger more
congested. This is absolutely not good for us and the whole traffic of lawrence and De Anza, therefore
further influence the traffic of the whole area.
Please put my comment into the public record.

Dear Members of the City Council,
I am writing to express my strong opposition to the proposed modification of Bollinger Rd into a single lane. This
road is experiencing significant congestion, serving as a vital artery connecting three nearby schools, Hyde Middle
School, Lynbrook High School, and Miller Middle School, and linking to Lawrence Expressway. Converting it into
a single lane would exacerbate congestion issues, impacting surrounding city residents as well.
Moreover, considering the purportedly tight budget this year, allocating resources towards initiatives that would
benefit the community seems more prudent. Instead of converting Bollinger Rd, these funds could be directed
towards projects that enhance accessibility and convenience for all residents.
I urge the City Council to reconsider this proposal and prioritize solutions that address the pressing needs of our
community while maintaining the efficiency of Bollinger Rd as a crucial transportation route.
Please add my comment to the meeting minutes.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Dear Mayor Mohan, Vice-Mayor Fruen, and Council members,
I urge you during your study session today on the CIP to support the Bollinger Road
traffic study and design work.
Bollinger is an especially important east/west arterial and a conduit for students
traveling to and from Hyde Middle School, Cupertino High School and Lynbrook
High School. The road is designed in such a way that the speeds are high and the
safety of cyclists and peds is low. A study to explore designs that could improve our
students' and residents' safety is a small thing to ask. I understand that eighty
percent of the study is even paid for through a grant, so we are really leveraging our
city funds.
I believe the city always strives to make our community a safer, healthier place to
live and this is one step forward to that goal. I encourage you to let this remain on
the CIP list.
Thank you for all you do for Cupertino.
Respectfully,
Helene Davis

Councilmembers,
it is my understanding that during tomorrow's session, council will give guidance to City staff
as to what to keep on the CIP list this year.
I'd like to emphasize the need for the following projects:
- As unanimously voted during our bike ped commission meeting, the Bollinger Road Design
and Traffic Analysis is badly needed. This highly used corridor is a nightmare for cyclists and
pedestrians and I urge you to keep that project on the CIP list to better understand how to
make that street safer for all residents.
- The McLellan Road Bridge replacement has received 75% of its funding and staff expects no
city outlay. We need to make this renovation happen, as per City staff: we should "do it right
for the
next 100 years".
- The High Friction Pavement & Speed Feedback Signage in locations on several of our high-
volume roads: to make sure our infrastructure is aligned with the needs of all residents.
Thanks for your consideration.

Respected Mayor Mohan, Vice-Mayor Fruen, and Councilmembers,
I ask today that you support the Bollinger Road traffic study and design work.
The Bollinger Road Study is necessary to address the many safety issues on that Road, including two deaths and
many near-misses. It is a small amount to spend on an important topic which impacts the safety of all our residents,
many of whom are children going to school. Many of the residents on Bollinger even struggle to get out of their own
driveways safely because of the fast moving cars.
Some community members, many not from Cupertino, have raised fears that traffic flow for cars will be affected.
This CIP item will not reduce lanes, it only funds a traffic study and explores designs that could improve resident
safety. It does not fund any construction work on that street.
The traffic study and design work are completely funded by a grant except for the required 20% matching funds.
This is a great way to leverage our budget to meet our goals. Our budget should reflect that we prioritize the safety
of our residents, and this project does that.
As a student currently attending Cupertino High School who cannot drive and who uses a e-scooter to travel, road
safety is of upmost importance to me. I have often felt this road was unsafe for cyclists and pedestrians alike and
seeing that it’s true with 2 deaths, this study is important to keep members of our communities safe with their lives
intact. This study well-worth the budget spent with fears being untrue, please consider and prioritize the lives of our
community members.
Thank you for your work on behalf of Cupertino,

it will be a disaster. It is not our choice if we can find a job nearby to ride a bicycle. Since the

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

To Whom It May Concern:
I can’t believe that you are considering reducing Bollinger Rd from 4 lanes to 2
lanes. Bollinger Rd is a very busy street connecting De Anza Blvd. and Lawrence
ExpressWay. It’s always busy almost all day long. Residents in West San Jose and
Cupertino rely on Bollinger Rd to commute and drive/pick up kids at schools such as
Lynbrook High, Cupertino High, Miller Middle High, Hyde Middle High, Dilworth
Elementary School ,Portal Elementary School, and several private pre-schools.
Have you seen the heavy traffic on Bollinger Rd. while parents drive kids to school in
the morning and pick them up after school in the afternoon, especially in the section
in front Hyde Middle School. The lane in front of Hyde Middle School is always
blocked because both the only car entrance and exit for Hyde Middle School
are on Bollinger Rd. If you reduce Bollinger Rd to only one lane in each direction,
cars will have no way to come out of Hyde Middle School and the rest of cars can
not enter the school. The traffic will be assured to be jammed during those hours.
Please Delay the funds allocation to the Bollinger Road Corridor Design, not only
because of our strong concerns about the predictable traffic jams, but also because of
the Financial inefficiency of Cupertino City. Bollinger Rd. has an existing bike lane,
so Cupertino City has no need to waste additional funds on extending the bike lanes
and reducing the car lanes currently.
Please put my comments into the public record. Your reconsideration will be truly appreciated.

Dear City Council Members,
I hope this email finds you well. I am writing to express my concerns regarding the proposed plan to convert two lanes into bike lanes.
As a frequent user of Bollinger Road, I am deeply concerned about the potential impact of this decision on commute times and overall traffic flow. Bollinger is already notorious for its congestion, and reducing it to two lanes could exacerbate this issue significantly.
While promoting cycling infrastructure is undoubtedly important for promoting sustainable transportation options, it's crucial to consider the existing traffic patterns and the needs of all road users.
I urge the City Council to reconsider this proposal and explore alternative solutions that prioritize both the safety of cyclists and the efficiency of traffic flow on Bollinger.
I appreciate your attention to this matter and respectfully request that you carefully evaluate the potential consequences of the proposed changes before moving forward. Please put my comments into the public record.

Road
Dear Cupertino city council
I am writing to express my concerns and objections about the recent proposal to
reduce the number of lanes on Bollinger from four to two. As a resident within 1
mile, I believe this change could have unintended negative consequences.
Firstly, the current four-lane structure of Bollinger is already very busy during
school and work hours. Reducing it to two lanes could lead to significant
congestion.
Secondly, I am concerned about the safety implications. More congestion often
leads to increased frustration among drivers, which can result in reckless driving
behaviors. This put many students pedestrians in danger.
Thank you for your attention to this matter. I, along with many other concerned
residents, eagerly await your response and hope for a reconsideration of the
proposal.

Dear Honored City Councilmembers and Mayor Mohan,
I write today as a resident of Cupertino who lives ¼ mile north of Bollinger Avenue. I not only
drive on it to get to places such as Home Depot, but I also bike to Trader Joes on the corner of
Bolllinger and De Anza frequently or walk to Safeway on the corner of Bollinger and Miller.
When I bike, I try not to be on Bollinger if at all possible. There’s too many dangers, whether
from speeding cars, being doored when riding next to parked cars, or a difficult and scary road
crossing, like I do when I go to Trader Joe’s. I tend to use residential streets, often going
significantly out of my way just to avoid it. I’m also very familiar with the Local Road Safety
Plan that highlighted its many safety issues for all methods of transportation, and even the
recently released draft of Vision Zero lists it as a top concern and Recommended Project. In
short, it’s a road that has many issues for all road users.
I ask today that you support the Bollinger Road Traffic Analysis and design work to reflect
that we prioritize the safety of our residents, and that this area has documented safety issues,
including two recent pedestrian fatalities.
You have received a lot of emails, many from community members not in Cupertino, who
have raised fears about reduced traffic flow. This CIP item does not change the lane structure
or provide funding for any new construction. Rather, it pays to investigate the demand on the
road and design what could potentially happen. The City Council will later decide whether we
proceed or not with the recommended design changes.
This project has a modest outlay for the support of improving safety in our city. We have
received 80% of the money for the analysis and design, leveraging our city resources well.
This CIP item is a reasonable outlay for the potential benefits and I urge you to support it.
Thank you for considering my input, and your work on behalf of Cupertino.
Best Wishes,
Jennifer Shearin

Hi there,
Hope you are well!
Today I read over the news that there’s a proposal on Bollinger Road to be
discussed tomorrow 3/19.
I find the proposal shocking - making the street single lane will apparently
make the traffic much worse on this already super busy road, negatively
impacting hundreds of residents living nearby like myself.
Further, as a tax payer, I am also shocked to hear that the city is pouring
budget into this expensive project which makes the traffic worse not better,
over other priorities that we, the residents, would actually benefit from. This
is insane.
Please put my comments into the public record. As a resident nearby I
strongly oppose this proposal and request your consideration to delay the
funding.

Dear Cupertino Councilmembers,
I am a resident of west San Jose, living close to Bollinger Road. Though we are not Cupertino
residents, your meeting agenda regarding the Bollinger Road made us worried. Many west San
Jose residents drive on Bollinger Road everyday. We know the traffic situation very well.
There was traffic congestion almost every morning and late afternoon during weekdays. If
Bollinger Road has only one lane in each direction, I am afraid our west San Jose people can't
find an alternative road to go to work or drive kids to schools. Moreover, we saw cars from
Santa Clara or Strawberry Park district to Hyde Middle School everyday. If Bollinger Road
turned into a single lane road, all these cars would get stuck on the road and block Cupertino
traffic. That would hurt Cupertino residents' daily life, too.
We really hope Cupertino Council can delay the funds allocation to Bollinger Road Design.
More community outreach should be done before making such a decision.
Thank you for considering our concerns! Please put my email in the public record.

Respected Mayor Mohan, Vice-Mayor Fruen, and Councilmembers,
I'm emailing today to support the Bollinger Road study.
I cycle with my kids to Miller Middle and Lynbrook High schools, and face two primary
issues between Blaney Ave and Miller Rd:
on the south side, where Bolling Rd curves, cars will cut through the bicycle lane (even
with us in it!), and
the north-side bike lane shared with parking is often partially blocked by cars,
sometimes forcing a dangerous merge with 40+ mph traffic.
It's worthwhile to understand what options we have to enable more people to get to and from

Dear City Council:
Please include this as Public Comment for the CIP Study Session for the City Council Meeting on
3/19/24.
I am very concerned people are trying to have Bollinger Road be only two lanes instead of the current
Four lanes. Bollinger Road is a major East/West Traffic Corridor between Lawrence Expressway in San
Jose/Cupertino and De Anza Blvd. in Cupertino. The North side of Bollinger Road lies in Cupertino and the West
side of
Bollinger Road in West San Jose.
There is too much traffic on Bollinger Road to only have there be two lanes of traffic. The back up
On the road would be astronomical and gridlock would be the result. The school drop-offs at
Hyde Middle School is already a gridlock situation.
My mother-in-law and her family live by Bollinger in West San Jose, and they have said that
reducing Bollinger to two lanes is a very dangerous idea. Emergency vehicles would not be
Able to get down Bollinger with only two lanes.
Before anyone is seriously considering doing this to Bollinger, there needs to be many more
Meetings. This roadway is shared by San Jose and Cupertino and is a major traffic corridor for
Traffic from other cities.
Bollinger needs to be studied further and retaining all four lanes on Bollinger is the best
Course of action.
Thank you very much.

All,
Please reject the option to reduce Bollinger Road to two lanes. Bollinger simply has too much traffic,
independent of people turning, to consider further restricting its traffic flow. We got to see what Bollinger
looks like with only two lanes during the recent creek construction project, slow, bumper-to-bumper traffic

Please include the attachment for the CIP item 1, Special City Council Meeting March 19, 2024. The
City has been aware of the seismic deficiencies at City Hall for nearly 20 years without implementing
a seismic retrofit. Is this wise?
Thank you,

March 19, 2024 Written Communications City Properties: City Hall Renovation
•The City Hall Subcommittee assigned by Council in 2022, 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.
•Staff voiced concerns about their safety at City Hall to the Civil Grand Jury in the December 19, 2022 report
"House Divided." That report stated: "Certain staff regard the present City Council’s unwillingness to fund the
renovation as confirmation that their health and safety concerns are not a priority."
•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 had been
moving forward to locate 1,300 sf of EOC in that building.
•The following slides show the Staff Recommendation to the City Hall Subcommittee to renovate the City Hall
and a table of more affordable options to address seismic safety concerns. -Councilmember Moore

REPORT TITLE A HOUSE DIVIDED
(...)"City staff voiced concern that their workplace, City
Hall, had not been renovated and seismically improved.
Although the 2015 City Council allocated funds for the
renovation, the monies were subsequently redirected to
expand the City Library. Certain staff regard the present
City Council’s unwillingness to fund the renovation as
confirmation that their health and safety concerns are not
a priority."
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

Respected Mayor Mohan, Vice-Mayor Fruen, and Councilmembers,
I urge you today to support the Bollinger Road traffic study and design work.
There have been many safety issues on Bollinger, including two deaths and many near-misses. It is a small amount
to spend on an important topic which impacts the safety of all our residents, many of whom are children going to
school at Hyde Middle, Cupertino High, and Lynbrook High. Getting out onto Bollinger for residents living nearby
is even difficult.
Some community members, many not from Cupertino, have raised fears that traffic throughput will change. This
CIP item doesn't approve construction, but only funds a portion of a traffic study and explores designs that could
improve resident safety. Eighty percent of the study is even paid for through a grant, so we are really leveraging our
city funds.
This is a great way to make our budget go farther and still meet our goals. I encourage you to let this remain on the
CIP list.
Thank you for your work on behalf of Cupertino.

To Whom It May Concern,
My name is Kristen Chen. I am writing to you in regards to
Bollinger Road changing to a single lane.
For the fifteen years of living on Bollinger Road, I’ve seen
how busy this road has been used. There are cars, trucks,
buses constantly driving by. The number of cyclists, however,
can be counted on weekdays. As more people return to work,
traffic on Bollinger Road will get even worse during commute
hours. If you cut down to one lane, I can foresee there will be
more road rage too with impatient drivers. I have reason to
believe this because I (and my neighbors) often got honked at
by people when I waited to make a left turn onto my driveway.
Before Covid, traffic was bad with two lanes. It was so
congested during commute times that, when I picked up my
hungry kids from after school, we had to wait over 20 minutes
to move less than a 1/4 mile on Bollinger Road. We could see
our house right there, but we could not get home! Now that
Covid is over, I start to see traffic is picking up again,
especially in the morning and evening rush hours. Again, from
my personal experiences, in the morning when I take my child
to school these days , with the constant stream of traffic on
both lanes, I often have to wait for 15 minutes or more to back
out of the driveway . A few times, we could not get out, I had
to tell my child to get off the car and run to school so that he
did not miss class.
Bollinger Road is already heavily used daily with two lanes. If
you cut down to one lane on each direction, the traffic
congestion will become a nightmare!
Sincerely,
Kristen Chen

To whom it may concern,
I saw the proposal to change Bollinger Rd to 1 lane road. This sounds like an absurd
proposal from someone do not live in the area, or do not need to comminute to work.
Please consider the hardworking people who pay you all the tax in the area, who also
need to commute daily on this road. Changing it to a 1 lane road will not only be a
disaster to the traffic, but also create more pollution because of the traffic jam.

Dear Mayor Mohan and fellow Council members –
I urge you to keep the Bollinger Road improvement project as a top priority of your budget this
year. Like a number of roads and byways in Cupertino, Bollinger Road is a busy commuter
road that bisects neighborhoods and inhibits the community from easily moving from one
section of town to another via bike or pedestrian means. Surprisingly there seems to be
resistance to this project which is very hard to understand.
As a longtime resident of Cupertino, I urge you to keep the focus and priorities on making it
safe and easy for the community to navigate their way through the city.
Thank you for your service to our community!

Lars here from Trail Head Cyclery, the last remaining bike shop in Cupertino. Folks,
Cupertino residents and employees alike need this study to further the goals for safer routes.
My employee who lives off Bollinger tries to commute by bicycle as often as possible and
currently avoids Bollinger due to the risks! I really hope to see Cupertino take full advantage
of the state grant dollars and reap the rewards of this traffic study as I really do not believe that
San Jose ever will.

Respected Mayor Mohan, Vice-Mayor Fruen, and Councilmembers,
I ask today that you support the Bollinger Road traffic study and design work.
The Bollinger Road Study is necessary to address the many safety issues on that Road, including two deaths and
many near-misses. It is a small amount to spend on an important topic which impacts the safety of all our residents,
many of whom are children going to school. Many of the residents on Bollinger even struggle to get out of their own
driveways safely because of the fast moving cars.
Some community members, many not from Cupertino, have raised fears that traffic flow for cars will be affected.
This CIP item will not reduce lanes, it only funds a traffic study and explores designs that could improve resident
safety. It does not fund any construction work on that street.
The traffic study and design work are completely funded by a grant except for the required 20% matching funds.
This is a great way to leverage our budget to meet our goals. Our budget should reflect that we prioritize the safety
of our residents, and this project does that.
Thank you for your work on behalf of Cupertino.

We are in a budget deficit. Please don't make unnecessary spendings. Bollinger Road Corridor
Design is a low priority. We don't need it when we are looking for budget deductions.
According to Bollinger Road Corridor Safety Study, there are two alternatives. I never heard
about any survey about those two alternatives. Alternative A is a lane reduction. There was
road repair recently so the east bound became one lane on that day. The traffic was horrible.
You don't want to make it permanent.

Cupertino Voice is a group of Cupertino residents who care passionately about our
community and the welfare of our city. We performed many surveys related to Cupertino
issues. Please see https://cupertinovoice.org/?page_id=13 for a full list.
In February 2024, we performed a survey about the Service-Level Reductions weighed by
the City Council. The survey was sent to about 15,000 registered Cupertino voters and
people who subscribed to our surveys. We received 275 total responses, including 231
responses from registered Cupertino voters. Given there are a little more than 33,000
registered voters in Cupertino, the margin of error is ±6.4% with 95% confidence level.
The conclusion is people rejected following items:
1.
Shift Sidewalk Maintenance to Property Owners
2.
Shift Street Tree Maintenance to Property Owners
3.
Reduce Janitorial Contract.

I am NOT in support of Plan A, which reduces the lanes from 4 to 2. As an almost daily driver on

Add the correct city clerk email address..
To whom may concerned,
I heard that City is thinking about changing Bollinger to single-lane. I am writing a letter to
show I am really against it!
First of all, Bollinger Road connects two big main streets, De Anza Blvd and Lawrence. It is
not just a simple residential road, but a very busy road, especially in the morning and at night.
I drive this road every morning and night. It is very packed. And especially it has lots of parts
that cars need to turn left, which has already made the left lane always build up traffic all the
time. I can't imagine how terrible the traffic is going to be if you change it to a single lane.
Second of all, I drove around 1.5 miles on Bollinger at 9am this morning, I purposely looked
on the way this morning. I didn't see one single bike at all, but just cars. My husband loves to
ride bikes, he sometimes bikes to work in the morning, there are so many ways/roads to bike
including Bollinger already. Please, do some more research on how many people always bike
to work every day in this neighborhood.... vs how many people in the neighborhood drive to
work every day..
So, I object to changing Bollinger to single-lane!
Thanks,

Dear Mayor Mohan, Vice-Mayor Fruen, and Councilmembers,
The CIP should include a traffic study for Bollinger Rd.
This is a very important east-west corridor for active transportation, similar to McClellan Rd. (which now benefits
from a physically separated bikeway). I'm worried that, like Homestead Rd., just because Bollinger straddles a city
border it is not receiving the attention and safety improvements it may need.
Please get the ball rolling on making the road safer by conducting a traffic study to gauge how much the road is
being used. Keep in mind that there's already a grant available if Cupertino can contribute 20% to match. Thank you
for your consideration.

Respected Mayor Mohan, Vice-Mayor Fruen, and Councilmembers,
Please support the Bollinger Road traffic study and design work.
I live near the Bollinger Home Depot and have wanted to see a safer Bollinger Road for a very
long time. As a child in the 90’s, I would bike up and down Bollinger but only on the sidewalk
as the bike lanes seemed completely inadequate.
Now as an adult with decades of experience cycling, I sometimes will bike down Bollinger but
only if absolutely necessary. The bike lanes are still inadequate - a tiny strip that is flanked by
parked cars on the right and 40+mph cars on the left. Often times there is broken glass or some
other obstacle that forces me into the street. Add in the fact that modern cars are becoming
bigger, heavier, and deadlier for pedestrians, and you can understand why biking down
Bollinger is a true life or death situation.
I have seen that there is a contingent of community members that wants to shut the study
down because they think it will result in lane closures and thus more traffic. I have interacted
with these folks and behind all the talk of traffic and metrics it becomes clear that their main
priority isn’t actually living in the city of Cupertino. It seems their main priority is to
maximize the amount of cars that pass through Cupertino.
As a resident, I want to live in my city, not just drive through it. I have lived in cities where
walking or biking is a safe and viable option for getting to school, to work, or just to a local
restaurant. The key design feature these places have is limited exposure to high-speed cars.
If you haven’t already, please acquaint yourselves with the concept of induced demand, as
explained in this Wired article: https://www.wired.com/2014/06/wuwt-traffic-induced-
demand/
The gist is that adding more lanes and car capacity doesn’t reduce traffic, it only incentivizes
more people to get in their cars and use the roads. As that happens, the roads become less safe
and other option become less viable. Eventually, the car is the only safe option. I have also
lived in places that thought adding lanes was the solution to traffic. In these places, the only
parts of your city you will ever see are your driveway and various parking lots.
I would like to see Cupertino go in the opposite direction. More walkable, more bikeable, and
more safe. A better Bollinger Road would be a good step in that direction. Please support the
Bollinger Road Study.
Thank you for your work on behalf of Cupertino.
Sincerely,
Michael Chen

Hi Cupertino City council,
I just heard there will be a proposal to change current brollinger road to be one lane only and convert the other lane
to bicycle lane.
I am really concerned and wonder if this plan has been seriously studied. I live near by and current traffic is already
bad during peak hours. Can’t image how horrible this gonna be once it has only one lane!
I hope city council could make more realistic suggestions and am really against the current proposal to convert

Dear City Council Members or to Whom it may concern,
I am writing to express my strong opposition to the proposed Bollinger Road Corridor Design
to shrink the car lane from 2 to 1.
We live in the Lynbrook High School district. Bollinger Road is the closest big road to our
house for daily commute. But this proposed Bollinger Road Corridor Design would greatly
increase the traffic congestion, and it would have a devastating impact on our community.
The Bollinger road is located in the heart of our community, connecting many popular schools
in our community, for example, Lynbrook High School, Hyde Middle School, Miller Middle
School, Dilworth Elementary School and Murdock Elementary School. These schools serve a
big population of Cupertino and West San Jose residences. Every morning and early
afternoon, I see cars waiting in a long line on Bollinger road trying to get in and out of these
schools. Now I can use the second lane to go through the traffic, but if you change the
bollinger road to a single car lane, we have to stay in the single car lane which promotes
higher possibility to car accident and threatens the safety of young kids commute to schools.
Bollinger road also connects many supermarkets and restaurants at our community. Single
lane will make all the traffic worse based on existing setup. Again, higher risk for car
accidents and unsafe walking environments for young and old. Demoted the image of our
beautiful and charming community.
Moreover, Cupertino City is currently short of funds for many good design proposals, for
example, for schools , libraries and parks. Please at least delay the funds allocation to the
Bollinger Road Corridor Design!
I urge you to vote against the Bollinger Road Corridor Design in today's meeting! It would be
a mistake that we would regret for many years to come. Please put my comments into the
public record.
Sincerely,
Mowen Yang

Alternative A, reducing Bollinger Road from 4 lanes to 2 lanes (single lane in each
direction)
I believe it be more beneficial if funding for this project halted and focus on other
aspects of improving the city, for example cleaning trash littering the streets and
highways from homelessness and careless visitors in town. Bollinger road is a major
commuter street that would not benefit if decreased in sized. Alternative B is much
better, as it leaves all 4 lanes but improves certain areas along Bollinger, particularly
near Hyde middle school, where there are children biking to school. Reducing the
lanes on Bollinger would impact the traffic not only along the road to daily commuters
but to school traffic as well to Hyde middle school, as its entrance is on Bollinger
road, and already is difficult getting in and out of the parking lot.
I believe the people who use Bollinger most consistently use vehicles, not bikes, and
therefore would be better to focus on fixing whats already there. the time of
construction to reduce the lanes will also impact the flow of traffic down Bollinger,
causing major slowdowns and frustration.

Hi,
My name is Olivia Chen I live in Bentoak lane. San Jose 95129.
There are several reasons why I disagree with the proposal to reduce lanes on Bollinger and
Lawrence:
1. Traffic congestion: Bollinger and Lawrence are major thoroughfares that experience heavy
traffic flow, especially during peak hours. Reducing the number of lanes would likely
exacerbate congestion and lead to longer travel times for commuters. This could have
significant implications for the overall efficiency of transportation in my area. I normally need
to wait for a long time to cut in Bollinger from wonderich road. I can’t imaging how long
should I wait to merge to bollinger. Plus there are bunch of car going out from Wunderich in
the morning from Murdock elementary school. Reducing lane will make this worse ….
2. Capacity limitations: By reducing the number of lanes, the road's capacity to accommodate
vehicles would be diminished. This could result in bottlenecks and increased delays,
particularly at intersections and during high-demand periods. Maintaining an adequate number
of lanes is crucial for accommodating current and future traffic volumes effectively.
3. Emergency response and public safety: A reduction in lanes could potentially impede
emergency vehicles' ability to navigate through the affected area quickly. Quick response
times during emergencies can be critical in saving lives and minimizing property damage. It is
important to prioritize public safety and ensure unobstructed access for emergency services.
In summary, while I understand the need for effective traffic management and improvement
of transportation systems, I believe that reducing lanes on Bollinger and Lawrence may not be
the most suitable solution. It is essential to consider the potential negative consequences and
explore alternative approaches that can achieve the desired goals without compromising traffic
flow, public safety, and the well-being of the community.

Olivia

1-Do not start a completely NEW CIP project when we have many other projects that need to be completed.
2-It has been identified as a LOW PRIORITY project.
3-Although there is a $425k grant, that is ONLY 20% of the cost of the entire project! What you are looking at is to start a $4M project at a time when the city cannot afford it AND it’s not even a high priority project!
4-Bollinger Rd is a key east-west corridor connecting Lawrence Expressway to De Anza Blvd. Congestion on this road is horrible and involves impacts to several school traffic patterns for Hyde Middle School, Miller Middle School,
Lynbrook High School, Cupertino High School. The area along Bollinger at Miller, at Tantau, at Lawrence Expressway cannot take anymore congestion!
5-Lawrence Expressway, Miller Ave and De Anza Blvd are key north-south corridors and cannot afford to be backed up even more due to excess congestion caused by Bolinger Rd changes.
The city does not need to start new low priority, high cost ($4M) CIP projects when we have so many left to complete.

Mayor Mohan, Vice-Mayor Fruen, and Councilmembers,
I urge you today to support the Bollinger Road traffic study and design work.
As a cyclist living in Cupertino, I often ride south and must cross Bollinger to continue my
route.
I'm always fearful for my safety as the traffic on Bollinger is very fast. The alternative is to use
the light at Blaney, which I often do, but Blaney has its own perils for cyclists.
I welcome at least a study to see what might be done to improve cyclist and pedestrian safety
along Bollinger.
There have been many safety issues on Bollinger, including two deaths and many near-misses.
It is a small amount to spend on an important topic which impacts the safety of all our
residents, many of whom are children going to school at Hyde Middle, Cupertino High, and
Lynbrook High. Getting out onto Bollinger for residents living nearby is even difficult.
Some community members, many not from Cupertino, have raised fears that traffic throughput
will change. This CIP item doesn't approve construction, but only funds a portion of a traffic
study and explores designs that could improve resident safety. Eighty percent of the study is
even paid for through a grant, so we are really leveraging our city funds.
This is a great way to make our budget go farther and still meet our goals. I encourage you to
let this remain on the CIP list.

Dear City Council,
This is Ping, a 17-year Cupertino resident. I live pretty close to Bollinger and I've been
closely following Bollinger Road Project discussion.
I'm deeply concerned about the "Alternative A: Lane Conversion" option. If we implement
this option, it will be a nightmare! It will add more congestion to the already bad traffic on
Bollinger. I fully respect and understand the safety of Bikers and pedestrians, as my high
schooler kid and I are also bikers. But I have driven along Bollinger almost every day to my
work place for 17 years and also to my kid's school for several years and I know clearly how
the traffic is like.
During morning and afternoon rush hours, Bollinger has a lot of traffic which is undoubtedly
true. Other than that, Hyde Middle and Lynbrook High are also very close to Bollinger. So,
evern at other times, such as 8 am in the morning or 3 pm in the afternoon, there are also lots
and lots of cars on Bollinger to drop off or pick up kids. Bollinger is a gateway for both
Cupertino and West SJ residents and there are a large number of households along Bollinger.
It is a densely populated area. I can't imagine what it will look like if we reduce 4 lanes to 2
lanes. That will be a disaster to whoever commutes to school and workplaces through
Bollinger. It will make Bollinger turn into a big parking lot instead of alleviating traffic.
I strongly urge the city council to postpone the allocation of funds to the Bollinger Road
project, especially when the city is facing a lot of financial challenges.
One last word, I don't think doing more work is really necessary for the city council to show
the residents that the city council is actually working on something. If the city council cannot
make it better, then please just stop doing anything to make it worse. I really have no
complaints if the city councils don't do anything to Bollinger right now. You have already
done a good job and I know you are trying to survive the financial hardships. Just don't spend
extra money toward Bollinger. This is NOT a top priority for the city. It will be a waste.
Thank you very much,
Ping

Hi Cupertino City officers,
I just heard today there would be a discussion about Brollinger road conversion, changing to
single lane and covert the other lane to bicycle lane.
I am really against the idea. This proposal is not practical at all. Brollinger road is a major road,
not just for city of cupertino but for many commuters and nearby residents. You can check live
traffic during peak hours and I have no idea why Cupertino city council was thinking to even
reduce lanes. And also how come such non-practical proposal didn't have any public hearing?
I am really against this idea.

Hi,
I'm a West San Jose resident living in Murdock neighborhood. I just started to learn about
Cupertino's plan of changing Bollinger Road to single lane in the name of safety. I'd like to
voice my strong concerns over this project.
The plan tries to limit the car speed and thus reduce the capacity to "provide more safety to
bicycles and pedestrians". But the reality is Bollinger road already has dedicated lanes for
bicycles, and bicycle traffic is minor compared to the car traffic. Given how busy Bollinger
road already is, doing this will just make it way more congested and hurt the local residents.
It looks like this project was only going through very limited public disclosure. I've talked to
some local residents, nobody seems to know about it. A lot of people not only share these
concerns, they are also shocked by how a project this impactful is running without
transparency. This led me to believe this is driven by special interest and not putting the local
residents at the top.
As a concerned resident, I urge you to:
- suspend the execution of the project and bring it to larger public hearings so local residents
can voice their thougts and concerns
- amend the study by adding traffic impact and mitigation plans.
Thank you!

Respected Mayor Mohan, Vice-Mayor Fruen, and Councilmembers,
I ask today that you support the Bollinger Road traffic study and design work.
The Bollinger Road Study is necessary to address the many safety issues on that Road, including two deaths and
many near-misses. It is a small amount to spend on an important topic which impacts the safety of all our residents,
many of whom are children going to school. Many of the residents on Bollinger even struggle to get out of their own
driveways safely because of the fast moving cars.
Some community members, many not from Cupertino, have raised fears that traffic flow for cars will be affected.
This CIP item will not reduce lanes, it only funds a traffic study and explores designs that could improve resident
safety. It does not fund any construction work on that street.
The traffic study and design work are completely funded by a grant except for the required 20% matching funds.
This is a great way to leverage our budget to meet our goals. Our budget should reflect that we prioritize the safety
of our residents, and this project does that.

Dear City Council,
Over the years, we have had numerous studies, but little to show for them.
The City has been considering that residents take over maintenance of city sidewalks and city
street trees.
Until that ask is completely out of the realm of possibility, I urge you to not fund go-nowhere
studies.
We must not be funding studies that have little chance of being executed in the near future.
We must be careful about how we invest our money – even for studies.
We should also have a very high-level project-cost estimate before launching into studies.
I beg you to defer studying the Bollinger Road Corridor Design.
We need to prioritize fixing what we have, rather than building new things.
I was shocked to see that we need a new 75 gallon water heater at a cost of $12K.
Where did that estimate come from?
Has the water heater been maintained and drained every 6 to 12 months?
Why are we already looking at replacing the hvac at the relatively new Environmental
Education Center at McClellan Ranch?
And how did the new boards on the blacksmith shop age so quickly?
I only took at look at McClellan Ranch and was quite dismayed by what I saw.
We need to protect the large barn, let’s get the wood protected before it rots away.
We don’t need high-friction pavement – it looks like this is make-work. Can we use the
$356K elsewhere?
On PV systems, let’s only put the PV systems where we need it most. $6.3M is too much to
spend right now. Perhaps install PV in one location now, such as the library and wait on the
rest until we know what is happening with the library.
Why does the proposed EV Charging Station cost so much?

Executive Summary
Camp Dresser & McKee Inc. (CDM) was contracted by the City of Cupertino Public Works
Department to perform a Phase I Environmental Site Assessment (ESA) of the property located at
22120 Stevens Creek Boulevard in Cupertino, California (referred to as the subject property).
The subject property is owned jointly by relatives Mr. Alan Stocklmeir, Ms. Janet Trankle, Ms. Pam
Stocklmeir, and Mr. Kurt Stocklmeir. The subject property has been owned by the Stocklmeir
family since the early 1900s. The approximately five -acre subject property currently contains two
rental residential units and a noncommercial orchard.
This Phase I ESA was performed in general accordance with American Society for Testing and
Materials (ASTM) standard designation E1527-97 with the purpose of identifying recognized
environmental conditions' at the subject property. The results of the Phase I ESA were based upon
information provided to CDM by Mr. Alan Stocklmeir (the most knowledgeable of the owners),
review of pertinent historical documents, and observations specific to environmental conditions
made by CDM during a site walkthrough of the subject property conducted on April 22, 1999.
The subject property was assessed for recognized environmental conditions with respect to
hazardous substances, solid waste/non-hazardous waste, polychlorinated biphenyls, asbestos -
containing materials, air quality, storage tanks, water, wastewater, storm water, herbicide and
pesticide use, and lead-based paint.
During the site walkthrough, the subject property appeared to be well maintained. Based on CDM's
site walkthrough, interviews, and review of site-specific information, there were no indications that
prior or current use of the subject property has resulted in recognized environmental conditions.
No evidence was discovered that would indicate that adjacent properties caused recognized
environmental conditions at the subject property.
However, due to the age of the structures at the subject property it is likely asbestos -containing
material (ACM) and lead-based paints were used during construction and any renovations. The
existence of friable and/or non -friable ACM is possible in the wallboard, roofing, flooring, and
chimney materials. During the site walkthrough, CDM made cursory visual observations for ACM
and observed no material suspected of containing friable ACM. Prior to any renovation or
demolition of the buildings at the subject property, CDM recommends a certified asbestos
As used in ASTM E1527-97, "recognized environmental condition' means the following:
The presence or likely presence of any hazardous substances or petroleum products on a property under conditions that
indicated an existing release, a past release, or a material threat of a release of any hazardous substances or petroleum
products into structures on the property or into the ground, groundwater, or surface water of the property. The term
includes hazardous substances or petroleum products even under conditions in compliance with laws. The term is not
intended to include de minimis conditions that generally do not present a material risk of harm to public health or the
environment and that generally would not be the subject of an enforcement action if brought to the attention of
appropriate governmental agencies" (ASTM, 1997).

consultant conduct an asbestos survey of the buildings.
During the site walkthrough, flaking paint and paint chips were observed on the window sills of the
shop building and one pump house. Based on the extent of flaking paint, the potential for soil in
contact with paint ships to have elevated levels of lead from the lead-based paint is minimal.
In addition, the subject property served as a commercial orchard until the late 1960s. It is possible,
although no evidence was fo-und during this Phase I ESA, that the potential mismanagement (i.e.,
spill during mixing or dilution and over application) of pesticides from uses associated with the
orchard may have adversely impacted the subject property. The potential for residual pesticides in
the soil to adversely affect human health is minimal. The orchard maintenance that occurs at the
subject property could reduce the residual pesticides in the soil. In general, high concentrations of
certain pesticide compounds in soil can classify soil as hazardous waste. Prior to any major
disturbance of the soil at the subject property, CDM recommends collecting soil samples to
determine the extent of impact, if any.
Finally, one abandoned well exists at the eastern pump house in the southwest section of the subject
property. If the well will no longer be used, CDM recommends properly destroying the well with
the approval of the Santa Clara Valley Water District.
This Executive Summary is not intended to be read as a stand alone document. The reader should
review the detailed information regarding each item in the following sections: Section 3, Property
Description; Section 4, Records Review; and Section 5, Site Reconnaissance and Interviews.

Introduction
This section describes the purpose of the study and presents the scope of work as well as limitations
to the investigation.
2.1 Purpose
CDM was contracted by the City of Cupertino Public Works Department to perform a Phase I ESA
of the subject property located at 22120 Stevens Creek Boulevard in Cupertino, California, for the
purpose of identifying recognized environmental conditions.
2.2 Description of Work
CDM received written authorization to proceed on April 13, 1999 from Mr. Bert Viskovich of the
City of Cupertino Public Works Department. Upon authorization to proceed, CDM arranged a site
walkthrough of the subject property through Mr. Alan Stocklmeir, one of the owners of the subject
property.
On April 22,1999, CDM met with Mr. Stocklmeir at the subject property to discuss background
information pertinent to the assessment of the subject property. After the meeting, CDM conducted
a site walkthrough of the subject property, which consists of six buildings and an orchard of
approximately 170 orange, walnut, and apricot trees. Mr. Stocklmeir accompanied CDM during the
site walkthrough and provided information regarding the current and historical uses of the subject
property.
Observations made by CDM were noted and photographs of the subject property were taken
during the site walkthrough. Select photographs of the subject property are provided in Appendix
A. Appendix B contains information reviewed pertinent to the subject property.
In addition, a search of federal, state, and local environmental databases was conducted by
Environmental Data Resources, Inc. (EDR). The database search report provides information
regarding any past or current hazardous waste disposal sites; reported petroleum or hazardous
waste releases; listed hazardous waste generation, transportation, storage, or disposal facilities;
listed solid waste disposal facilities; report leaking underground storage tanks; or listed
underground storage tanks at the subject property and properties in the vicinity of the subject
property. A copy of the EDR database report is provided in Appendix C. Cursory observations
were made of surrounding properties listed in the EDR database during an drive-through survey of
the area.
During April 20 through May 5, 1999, various federal, state, and local environmental regulatory
agencies were contacted as part of an investigation of the history of the subject property and to
determine whether prior use of the subject property has resulted in recognized environmental
conditions. Agency personnel were also questioned about the existence of recognized

Introduction
environmental conditions in the vicinity of the subject property. Names and affiliations of persons
contacted for information for this Phase I ESA and a list of information reviewed are provided in
Section 7. Copies of information request letters sent to environmental regulatory agencies and
subsequent responses are provided in Appendix D.
2.3 Limiting Conditions and Methodology Used
The results of this Phase I ESA are based on interviews with environmental regulatory agency and
subject property personnel, a walkthrough of the subject property, and a review of acquired
environmental regulatory agency documents and subject property information. The conclusions,
therefore, represent CDM's professional opinion based on these aforementioned sources of
information. This report has been prepared for the exclusive use of the City of Cupertino Public
Works Department. It is not intended for use by other parties.
If evidence of recognized environmental conditions are discovered based on CDM's review of
information requested but not as yet provided, CDM will notify the City of Cupertino Public Works
Department of these newly discovered issues. Therefore, is supplemental information warrants,
CDM reserves the right to change conclusions and recommendations stated in this Phase I ESA.

Section 3
Site Description and History
building are each one-story wooden buildings with concrete foundations (Photographs 1 through
3). The open-air garages have wooden frames with corrugated heavy plastic roofs. The main
residence and studio apartment were built in approximately 1900, and the shop building, garages,
and pump houses were built around 1950.
The pump at the pump house located at the northern end of the property was installed around 1920
Photograph 4). It provides water from Stevens Creek for the garden area near the main residence.
Historically, it pumped water for use in irrigating the orchard on the subject property. The pump
system consists of a PVC pipe that enters the creek, a pressure tank to hold the creek water, the
pump, and garden hoses used for distribution.
The western pump house at the southern end of the property pumped creek water for irrigating the
orchard (Photograph 5). The pump system consisted of a trap door in the creek bed, a concrete
holding pit, and the pump. The holding pit is located in the concrete structure between the western
and eastern pump houses. This concrete structure, covered with wooden planks, is separated into
two comparments: one for the creek water and one for the groundwater well. According to Mr.
Stocklmeir, the creek water pump was installed in the 1920s or 1930s. The 8 -foot by 10 -foot pump
house is now used for storage space. The pump is operable but has not been used in approximately
twenty years.
The eastern pump house at the southern end of the subject property houses a pump and equipment
for a drinking water well (Photograph 6). The groundwater well is located in the concrete structure
between the two pump houses. The well was installed between 1900 to 1905. Mr. Stocklmeir is
unaware of the depth of the well; however, Mr. Stocklmeir stated that distribution pipes at least 120
feet long have been pulled out of the well. The well was used as the main drinking water source for
the subject property until the property was connected to the City's water lines. The well system
consists of pipes inserted to reach the groundwater, the pump, and a concrete pressure tank. The
pump is inoperable and has not been used in over 50 years. The 8 -foot by 10 -foot pump house is
now used for storage space.
3.4 Current Uses of Property
Since 1996, Mr. Stocklmeir has rented out the main residence and the studio apartment. The
orchard, consisting of approximately 150 orange trees and 20 walnut and apricot trees, fills the
majority of the subject property not occupied by the main residence, pump houses, and other
structures (Photographs 7 and 8). The orchard no longer functions as a commercial operation. The
oranges are picked every March by volunteers from the Second Harvest Food Bank of Santa Clara
and San Mateo Counties in San Jose, California. According to Mr. Stocklmeir, the extent of current
orchard maintenance is discing the orchard surface two to three times a year.
3.5 Past Uses of Property
According to Mr. Stocklmeir, the subject property has been owned by the Stocklmeir family since
the turn of the century. Mr. Stocklmeir's great grandmother lived at the main residence from 1900
until the mid -1940s. His grandparents then lived at subject property from 1949 to 1996, at which
time the main residence and studio apartment were rented out.

Cupertino Public Works Department Section 3
Phase l Environmental Site Assessment Site Description and History
Until the late 1960s, the subject property ran a commercial orchard. The orchard area was primarily
walnut trees and customers would come to the property to pick the nuts. A portion of the orchard
was leased out for growing flowers. The orchard became economically unfeasible and the
commercial business ended in the late 1960s. In the mid-1970s, the majority of the walnut trees were
removed and replaced with orange trees. About twenty walnut and apricot trees remain at the
northern end of the orchard.
3.6 Current and Past Uses of Adjoining Property
The Stocklmeir family owned the land adjacent to the west side of the subject property before the
area was developed into residences. That area grew additional walnut trees and was also leased out
for flower growing. The Stocklmeir family sold that land in 1976.
Aerial photographs, available from Pacific Aerial Surveys, were reviewed. The photographs were
from the years 1960, 1968, 1978, and 1988. Appendix B presents copies of these aerial photographs.
In the 1960 photograph, the surrounding area was used for agricultural and residential purposes.
Orchards occupied the subject property, the adjacent property to the west, and portions of the area
east of the subject property which is currently Blackberry Farm Park. The main residence is visible
through the vegetation on the subject property.
In the 1968 photograph, more of the surrounding area has been converted to residential uses.
Orchards occupy the subject property and the adjacent property to the west. The area east of the
subject property has been developed into a golf course.
In the 1978 photograph, the majority of the surrounding area is residential property. On the subject
property, the main residence, shop, garages, and pump hoses are visible. The studio apartment is
not visible due to vegetation at the subject property. The northern portion of the orchard area
appears to be heavily planted, but the southern half is either open space or lightly planted. Housing
has been developed along Scenic Boulevard, adjacent to the subject property to the west.
In the 1988 photograph, a few small agricultural areas still exist north and east of the subject
property. The surrounding area is residential. At the subject property, all of the current structures
are visible. The northern portion of the orchard is planted with large trees, while the southern
portion has smaller trees.

4.2 Database Search Results
A summary of listed environmental sites within the requested search distance follows.
National Priorities List (NPL) Sites
The National Priorities List (NPL) is a list of the nation's most serious hazardous waste sites. NPL
sites are those sites which the United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA), under its
Superfund program, has determined to be a significant threat to public health. The Records of
Decision (ROD) document mandates a permanent remedy at an NPL site containing technical and
health information to aid the cleanup. The USEPA has the authority to file liens (NPL Liens) against
real estate property in order to recover remedial action expenditures or when the property owner
receives notification of potential liability.
The database searches indicated no NPL and ROD sites within a one -mile radius of the subject
property. There are no liens against the subject property and the subject property was not on nor
deleted from the NPL.
Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) Sites
The RCRIS databases contain data compiled for RCRA and the Hazardous and Solid Waste
Amendments of 1984. RCRIS lists sites which treat, store or dispose of hazardous waste as defined
by RCRA. RCRA administration action tracking system (RAATS) contains records based on
enforcement action issued under RCRA pertaining to major violators and includes administrative
and civil suits. Under RCRA, the CORRACTS database contains hazardous waste haulers which
are undergoing corrective action.
The RCRIS database indicates that no TSD sites are located within a 0.5 -mile radius of the subject
property. The subject property is not listed in the RAATS database.
The CORRACTS database search indicated one CORRACTS site within a one -mile radius of the
subject property. Zilog Incorporated is located approximately 0.75 miles southeast of the subject
property. Zilog manufactured silicon, semiconductor wafers, and microprocessors, and was listed
as a hazardous waste storage facility. Zilog operated three USTs: one for storage of waste solvents

acetone, isopropanol, freon, trichloroethane, xylene, and n -butyl acetate); one for containment of
potential solvent spills; and one for containment of potential sulfuric, nitric, and hydrofluoric acid
spills (J.H. Kleinfelder & Associates, 1983). J.H. Kleinfelder & Associates concluded no soil
degradation had occurred from the operation of the acid spill tank, and no additional analytical
testing was necessary for the waste solvent storage and spill containment USTs due to only trace
levels (less than 20 micrograms per kilogram) of tetrachloroethane, toulene, and benzene found in
soil samples near the other two USTs (J.H. Kleinfelder & Associates, 1983). According to Zilog,
those chemicals were not used in their operations. In 1987, the California Department of Health
Services (DHS) determined that no contamination resulting from Zilog's operations remained at the
site (DHS, 1987). The Zilog site was officially closed by the DHS in 1988 (DHS, 1988).
Due to the site closure by DHS, trace levels of contaminants in the soil, and distance from the subject
property, it is unlikely that the site has impacted the subject property.
RCRA Registered Large and Small Generators (LG GEN, SM GEN)
of Hazardous Waste
The EPA's RCRA facility database lists facilities which report generation, storage, transportation,
treatment or disposal of hazardous waste. RCRA Large Generators (LG GEN) are facilities which
generate at least 1,000 kilograms of non -acutely hazardous waste per month while Small Generators
SM GEN) produce less per month.
No SM GEN or LG GEN sites are located within a 0.25 -mile radius of the subject property.
Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act
CERCLA) Sites
The CERCLA Information System (CERCLIS) supports EPA Headquarters and regions for the
management and oversight of the Superfund program. CERCLA sites are either on the NPL or are
in screening and assessment phase for possible inclusion on the NPL. CONSENT decrees are major
legal settlements that establish responsibility and standards for cleanup at NPL sites. CERC-
NFRAP sites are those CERCLA sites where no contamination was found, contamination was
removed quickly, or the contamination was not serious enough to require NPL consideration.
No CERCLIS or CONSENT sites are located within a 0.5 -mile and 1 -mile radius of the subject
property, respectively. The subject property was not listed on the CERC-NFRAP database.
PCB Activity Database System (PADS)
The PADS identifies generators, transporters, commercial storers and/or brokers and disposers of
polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) who are required to notify the EPA of such activities.
The PADS database search indicated that the subject property is not a PADS site.
Emergency Response Notification System (ERNS)
The ERNS list is a national database used to collect information on reported accidental releases of
oil and hazardous substances. Spill reports are made to federal authorities including the EPA, the

US Coast Guard, the National Response Center and the Department of Transportation.
The ERNS database search indicated that the subject property is not an ERNS site.
Facility Index System (FINDS)
FINDS contains both facility information and references to other sources that contain more detail.
The FINDS database search indicated that the subject property is not a FINDS site.
Toxic Release Inventory Database (TRIS)
Section 313 of the Emergency Planning and Community Right -to -Know Act (also known as SARA
Title III) of 1986 requires the EPA to establish an inventory of toxic chemicals emissions from certain
facilities. Facilities subject to this reporting are required to complete a Toxic Chemical Release Form
Form R) for specified chemicals.
The TRIS database search indicated that the subject property is not a TRIS site.
Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA)
TSCA identifies manufactures and importers of chemical substances included on the TSCA
Chemical Substance Inventory list. It includes data on the production volume of these substances
by plant site.
The TSCA database search indicated that the subject property is not a TSCA site.
Material Licensing Tracking System (MLTS)
MLTS is maintained by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission and contains a list of approximately
8,100 sites which possess or use radioactive materials and which are subject to NRC licensing
requirements.
The MLTS database search indicated that the subject property is not a MLTS site.
Hazardous Materials Information Reporting Systems (HMIRS)
The HMIRS database contains hazardous material spill incidents reported to the Department of
Transportation.
The HMIRS database search indicated that the subject property is not a HMIRS site.
California Annual Workplan (AWP)
California Department of Toxic Substance Control's Annual Workplan, formerly Bond Expenditure
Plan (BEP), identifies known hazardous substance sites targeted for cleanup.
The AWP and BEP database search indicated no AWP or BEP sites within a one -mile radius of the
subject property.

Calsites (CAL -SITES)
The CAL -SITES database contains potential or confirmed hazardous substance release properties as
reported by the California Department of Toxic Substance Control (DTSC).
The CAL -SITES database search indicated one CAL -SITES site within a one -mile radius of the
subject property. Kaiser Aluminum and Chemical Corporation (KACC) is located just under one
mile west of the subject property. In 1987, KACC decontaminated and closed a paint/sludge UST.
Oil and grease was found in the surrounding soil at concentrations of 1,100 to 2,600 milligrams per
kilogram (mg/kg). A subsequent investigation found that samples from underlying soils had
chromium and lead levels consistent with regional background levels, and purgeable and aromatic
hydrocarbons levels below detection limits. One groundwater sample from the site exceeded the
Primary Drinking Water Standard for chromium (Exceltech, Inc., 1988).
In 1988, a kerosene spill occurred at KACC. Excavated contaminated soil contained high levels of
vegetable oil. Subsequent analysis of samples from the area of the release indicated vegetable oil in
the soil samples at concentrations from 19 to 24 mg/kg, and in a groundwater sample at a
concentration of 100 micrograms per liter. Total petroleum hydrocarbon (TPH) as kerosene was
found in soil samples ranging in concentration from 14 to 32 mg/kg, but was not detected in
groundwater. TPH as kerosene concentrations in soil were below the action level of 100 mg/kg.
No action level exists for vegetable oil in soil or groundwater (ENSCO Environmental Services,
1988).
No documentation from the San Francisco Bay Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB) or
any other environmental agency on action taken at the KACC site existed in the RWQCB files. Mr.
David Bar with the RWQCB stated the KACC case is inactive, a status which usually occurs when
there is a shortage of staff to investigate the case at its onset. Even though the groundwater flow is
the area is to the east, Mr. Bar indicated that the subject property was unlikely to have been
impacted by the KACC site due to the distance, just under one mile, between the two sites.
Proposition 65 (Notify 65)
Notify 65 contains facility notifications about any release which could impact drinking water and
thereby expose the public to a potential health risk.
The Notify 65 database search indicated one Notify 65 site within a one -mile radius of the subject
property. Arco Service Station #6182 is located approximately 0.40 miles west of the subject
property. The site was also listed in the LUST Region 2 database as having reported a release from
a gasoline UST in 1988. According to the EDR report, the Santa Clara Valley Water District
SCVWD) signed off on the site on July 29, 1996.
Due to the case closure by the SCVWD, it is unlikely that the Notify 65 site has impacted the subject
property.

State Index of Properties with Hazardous Waste (Cortese)
The Cortese database identifies public drinking water wells with detectable levels of contamination,
hazardous substance sites selected for remedial action, sites with known toxic material identified
through the abandoned site assessment program, sites with underground storage tanks having a
reportable release and all solid waste disposal facilities from which there is known migration. The
source is the California Environmental Protection Agency.
The Cortese database search indicated two Cortese sites within a one -mile radius of the subject
property. The Kaiser Aluminum and Chemical Corporation is located just under a mile from the
subject property. A detailed description of the release and subsequent investigation can be found
above in the section on CAL -SITES sites. The other Cortese site is the Measurex Corporation and is
further discussed under LUST sites.
Toxic Pits
Toxic Pit sites are suspected of containing hazardous substances where cleanup has not yet been
completed.
The Toxic Pits database search indicated no Toxic Pit sites within a one -mile radius of the subject
property.
California Spills, Leaks, Investigation & Cleanup (CA SLIC)
CA SLIC sites are sites that have impacted groundwater or have the potential to impact
groundwater. The CA SLIC database is provided by the RWQCB.
The CA SLIC database search indicated one CA SLIC site within a 0.5 -mile radius of the subject
property. The Cupertino Post Office is located approximately 0.45 miles east of the subject property.
The EDR report states a release from a waste oil UST occurred at the site. The RWQCB closed the
site investigation on August 10, 1993.
Based on the case closure by the RWQCB, it is unlikely that the CA SLIC site has impacted the
subject property.
State Landfill
The Solid Waste Facilities /Landfill SITES site (SWF/LF) type records typically contain an inventory
of solid waste disposal facilities or landfills in a particular state. Depending on the state, these may
be active or inactive facilities or open dumps that fail to meet RCRA Subtitle D Section 4004 criteria
for solid waste landfills or disposal sites.
The State Landfill database search indicated no state landfill sites located within a 0.5 -mile radius of
the subject property.

Underground and Aboveground Storage Tanks (UST/AST), Leaking Underground
Storage Tanks (LUST)
The Hazardous Substance Storage Container Database is a historic listing of UST and LUST sites.
The source of the database is from the State Water Resource Control Board (SWRCB). The database
search located no registered UST sites within a 0.25 -mile radius. The AST database lists registered
ASTs as reported by the SWRCB. The EDR database reported no ASTs at the subject property.
The LUST database search indicated 11 LUST sites within a 0.5 -mile radius of the subject property.
Of the 11 sites listed, "Dennis Hall Property," "Arco #6182," "U.S. Postal Service," and "Measurez
Corporation" are duplicates. Of the remaining seven LUST sites, six site investigations have been
closed ("Facciola Residence," "Dennis Hall Property," "Arco," "US Postal Service," "Higdon, Alley,
Kolb" and "Measurex Corporation"). Neither the RWQCB nor the SCVWD has a file for the
remaining site, the Mobile Service Station. The RWQCB and the EDR database report that the site
was removed from the SCVWD's LUST database. Ms. Jeanette Townsend of the SCVWD, the lead
agency for the site, confirmed that that agency has no file for the site and if the site was removed
from the LUST database there was no contamination problem at the site. This concurs with the EDR
database which reports the soil contamination occurred at such a low level as to not pose a threat to
water quality.
Based on the information from the RWQCB and SCVWD, it is unlikely that the LUST sites have
impacted the subject property.
Waste Management Unit Database (WMUDS/SWAT)
WMUDS/SWAT is used by the SWRCB to track and inventory waste management units and consist
of 12 separate databases.
The WMUDS/SWAT database search indicated there are no WMUDS/SWAT sites within a 0.5 -mile
radius of the subject property.
Hazardous Waste Information System (HAZNET)
The California Environmental Protection Agency provides a database (HAZNET) from the manifest
data extracted from copies of hazardous waste manifests received each year by the DTSC.
The HAZNET database search indicated four HAZNET sites within a 0.25 -mile radius of the subject
property. Of the four sites, "Clarks Auto Parts & Machine" is a duplicate. The three remaining sites
Dan Facciola", "Lynn Markey", and "Clarks Auto Parts & Machine") do not have files at the
California Environmental Protection Agency. The DTSC is currently reviewing their files to
determine if information exists on the remaining sits. If information does become available that
suggests a HAZNET site has had the potential to impact the subject property, CDM will notify the
Cupertino Public Works Department.

California Waste Discharge System (CA WDS)
CA WDS sites are sites which may have been issued waste discharge requirements by the SWRCB.
The CA WDS database search indicated the subject property is not a CA WDS site.
South Bay Site Management System (SOUTH BAY)
The SOUTH BAY database lists groundwater pollution cases in the Santa Clara Valley where the
regulatory lead is the San Francisco Bay RWQCB.
The SOUTH BAY database search indicted the subject property is not a SOUTH BAY site.
Orphan Sites
Orphan sites are sites listed in any of the databases EDR searched and are potentially within one
mile of the subject property, but cannot be accurately mapped.
The EDR database search indicated eight orphan sites potentially within one -mile of the subject
property. Two sites are duplicates either of sites on the orphans list or sites from the other
databases ("Arco Stn #495" and "Kaiser Aluminum"). Based on the partial addresses provided for
the orphan sites, CDM concluded five of the sites to be greater than one -mile from the subject
property: "Arco Service Station #495," "Texaco," "Doneervyn's," and "Rancho Service Center."
The remaining site, Hanson Permanente Cement, formerly Kaiser Cement Corporation, is located
just under one mile west of the subject property. A number of USTs in five areas at the site have
been removed or closed in place. In 1993, Kaiser Cement Corporation removed one 10,000 -gallon
diesel UST and two 10,000 -gallon gasoline USTs from the Upper Service Station area. Soil samples
revealed only minor levels of total petroleum hydrocarbons. TPH as gasoline was detected at a
maximum concentration of 22 mg/kg, and TPH as diesel was not detected above laboratory
reporting limits (RWQCB, 1995). The RWQCB closed the site investigation of this area in 1995. A
copy of the closure letter is included in Appendix D.
According to SCVWD files, four 1,000 -gallon diesel USTs were removed from the Lower Service
Station. Floating product was observed in the tank pit and excavated soils had a strong diesel odor,
but no soil samples were collected. One 4,000 -gallon diesel UST was removed from the Emergency
Generator Area. During removal, the tank appeared undamaged but its lines and plumbing
showed signs of leakage. Excavated soil had a diesel odor and contained product. No soil samples
were obtained from this area. USTs were also removed from the Garage and Oil House areas. At
least two of these USTs were closed in place.
According to the SCVWD, no further remedial work is necessary at the Garage and Oil House areas.
On March 2, 1999, the SCVWD requested Hanson Permanent Cement submit a work plan to define
the extent of soil and groundwater contamination at the Lower Service Station and the Emergency
Generator Area (SCVWD, 1999). According to Ms. Adele Shepherd with SCVWD, Hanson
Permanente Cement submitted a workplan which has been approved by the SCVWD and is now
being implemented.

Section 4
Records Review
Even though the groundwater flow is the area is to the east, due to the distance of the Hanson
Permanente Cement site from the subject property (just under one mile), the potential is minimal
that the LUST site has impacted the subject property.
4.2 Physical Setting
The property is located in the west -central portion of the Santa Clara Valley which is a broad
structural trough infilled with alluvial sediments. The subject property is within the corporate
boundaries of the City of Cupertino. Stevens Creek flows adjacent to the east and south sides of the
subject property.
The climate in the area maintains a fairly constant temperature due the effects of surrounding
bodies of water, the Pacific Ocean and the San Francisco Bay. Summers are cool and often foggy
and winters are moderately wet. The subject property experiences the same climatic conditions as
much of the Santa Clara Valley which is represented by climate data collected in San Jose. Based on
50 years of climate data, a monthly average minimum temperature of 41.3 degrees Fahrenheit (°F)
occurs in January and a monthly average maximum temperature of 82.2 OF occurs in July.
Temperature extremes have been recorded at a low of 19 OF in December 1990 to a high of 108 OF in
July 1972. The annual average precipitation is 14.61 inches (Western Regional Climate Center,
1999).
The subject property is situated in the central part of the Coast Ranges, which is characterized by a
series of parallel, northwesterly -trending, folded and faulted mountain chains. In this part of the
province, flatland topography is underlain by recent alluvium which is typically underlain by
non -marine and marine sedimentary rocks. The region has been folded and faulted as a result of
major uplift of the area.
The Department of Water Resources (DWR) identifies the Santa Clara Formation as a principle
group of the water -bearing units in the Santa Clara Valley groundwater basin (Bulletin No. 118-1,
1975). DWR's report modeled the entire basin and identified preferential groundwater pathways
created by highly permeable coarse-grained channel deposits of the Santa Clara Formation which
have been intersected by numerous faults. Another study by DWR (Bulletin No. 66-62, 1964) states
that the main source of groundwater in the Santa Clara Valley is the younger alluvium and that the
Santa Clara Formation is of secondary importance. In addition, the principal aquifers of the area
exhibit pressure characteristics so that the groundwater is both confined and unconfined.
Groundwater flow in the area generally follows the topography, which would indicate an easterly
flow gradient (EMCON Associates, 1993). Groundwater in this area of the Santa Clara Valley is
generally a bicarbonate type with sodium and calcium the predominant cations. Although
moderately to very hard, the waters are of good to excellent quality and suitable for most uses
DWR, 1964).

Site Reconnaissance and Interviews
On April 22, 1999, CDM met with Mr. Alan Stocklmeir, one of the four owners of the subject
property, at the subject property. Mr. Stocklmeir was interviewed by CDM to obtain information
regarding the subject property history, existing conditions, and property -specific information
related to current and past operations. The Stocklmeir family has owned the subject property since
the 1900s, and Mr. Stocklmeir is the most knowledgeable of the current family owners about the
subject property. The interview was followed by a walkthrough of the subject property.
The subject property was assessed for recognized environmental conditions with respect to
hazardous substances, solid waste/non-hazardous waste, polychlorinated biphenyls, asbestos -
containing materials, air quality, storage tanks, water, wastewater, storm water, herbicides and
pesticides, and lead-based paint. CDM did not access the interior of the buildings on the subject
property, but observations were made through the windows.
5.1 Hazardous Substances
No hazardous substances were observed at the subject property. Mr. Stocklmeir is not aware of any
spills or releases of hazardous substances on the subject property or surround properties. During
the site walkthrough, CDM did not observe any operations that would produce hazardous wastes.
5.2 Solid Waste/Non-Hazardous Waste
During the site walkthrough, several piles of solid waste were observed at the subject property.
One small pile of used wooden shingles is present at the southern end of the site. Along the
western boundary of the subject property, small piles of building materials such as metal fencing,
lumber, and metal pipes were observed (Photograph 9). Mr. Stocklmeir indicated the shingles were
previously used on one of the pump houses, and the building materials are related to his personal
contractor business. According to Mr. Stocklmeir, there are no discarded items on the subject
property.
Residential waste generated at the subject property is disposed of through Cupertino's city-wide
trash disposal service.
5.3 Polychlorinated Biphenyls
According to Mr. Bob Bondy of Pacific Gas and Electric Company (PG&E), there are two pieces of
oil -filled electrical equipment on the subject property. A capacitor bank is located at the
northeastern corner of the subject property at the corner of the driveway and Stevens Creek
Boulevard. According to Mr. Bondy, the capacitor is labeled as having no PCB -containing fluid.
PG&E also operates a pole -mounted transformer located at the southern corner of the subject
property. No sticker is affixed to this transformer. According to Mr. Bondy, PG&E does not test
transformers for PCBs if they have not been leaking. Mr. Bondy stated that if the residential units at
CDM Camp Dresser & McKee 5-1

Site Reconnaissance and Interviews
the subject property are demolished, PG&E will remove the transformer.
5.4 Asbestos -Containing Materials
The main residence, studio, and the other subject property structures were constructed between
1900 and 1950, before the commercial use of asbestos -containing material (ACM). ACM are usually
found in structures built or renovated between the late 1950's and the early 1980's. However, it is
likely that during renovations and additions to the building friable and/or non -friable ACM was
used. The existence of friable and/or non -friable ACM is possible in the wallboard, roofing,
flooring, and chimney materials. During the site walkthrough, CDM made cursory visual
observations for ACM and observed no material suspected of containing friable ACM. However,
without conducting an asbestos survey, the presence and extent, if any, of ACM at the subject
property cannot be determined.
5.5 Air Quality
The site walkthrough did not reveal any particulate, gas, odor, or emission to the atmosphere from
the subject property that would violate any environmental regulation. No violations for the subject
property are on file with the Bay Area Air Quality Management District.
5.6 Storage Tanks
According to Mr. Stocklmeir, no USTs are located on the subject property. CDM did not discover
any indication that a UST exists or existed at the subject property.
One approximately 400 -gallon AST is located on the dirt on the east side of the driveway
Photograph 10). According to Mr. Stocklmeir, the AST contained propane used to heat the main
residence in the 1930s and 1940s. Use of the AST was discontinued in the mid -1940s or earlier when
natural gas became available. To Mr. Stocklmeir's knowledge, the AST is empty. Mr. Stocklmeir is
not aware of a permit for the AST or if the AST has been located at any other spot on the subject
property. The AST appeared to be in good condition with some light rust along the upper rim and
did not appear to be connected to any piping.
5.7 Water, Wastewater, and Storm Water
According to Mr. Stocklmeir, a groundwater well was installed at the subject property between 1900
to 1905 by his great grandfather. The well is located outside the eastern pump house located at the
southern end of the subject property. The main residence was connected to the city water supply in
the 1940s or earlier. Mr. Stocklmeir stated the well is abandoned and has not been used in over 50
years. The well has not been destroyed.
A one -compartment septic tank is located on the east side of the driveway, as shown in Figure 3-2
Photograph 11). The approximately 700 -gallon tank services the main residence and the studio
apartment. Only sanitary wastewater is generated at the subject property. Mr. Stocklmeir is
unaware of when the septic tank was installed, but stated it was there when his grandparents lived
at the subject property starting in 1949. To Mr. Stocklmeir's knowledge, no permit exists for the
septic tank.

Site Reconnaissance and Interviews
Mr. Stocklmeir stated occasional stoppages occur every one or two years in the septic tanks lines
running from the residences. The commercial service RotoRooter is contracted to clean the lines in
those instances. The tank is pumped out every two years by A -Able Septic Tank Company. Three
leach lines for the wastewater run underground into the orchard area: one north towards the pump
house, and the other two run northeast and east, respectively, into the orchard. Valves to control
the flow of the lines are located near the septic tank inside PVC piping. No distressed vegetation
was observed in the area of the leach field.
Mr. Stocklmeir stated that storm water at the subject property either percolates through the soil or
flows east to Stevens Creek. No pavement is present at the subject property except for small patio
areas. According to Mr. Stocklmeir, a storm water pipeline runs from the housing development
adjacent to the west side of the subject property across the orchard to Stevens Creek via an easement
across the subject property. The eastern end of the pipe is visible as a corrugated metal pipe in the
western side of the creek bed (Photograph 12).
5.8 Herbicides and Pesticides Use
Mr. Stocklmeir hired New View Landscape Service to perform yard work at the subject property
consisting of raking and collecting leaves and trimming the bushes. According to Mr. Stocklmeir,
no herbicides or pesticides are currently used at the subject property.
According to Mr. Stocklmeir, fertilizer has not been used on the orange trees in approximately 10
years. When the orchard produced walnuts for commercial use, the walnut trees were sprayed with
herbicides and pesticides. Mr. Stocklmeir stated that mixing or storing of chemicals did not occur at
the subject property. The commercial orchard business ended in the late 1960s. No signs of
distressed vegetation or stained soil were observed during the site walkthrough.
It is possible, although no evidence was found during this Phase I ESA, that the potential
mismanagement of pesticides (i.e., a spill during mixing or dilution and over application) from
historical uses associated with the orchard may have adversely impacted the subject property. In
general, pesticides have low vapor pressures, do not biodegrade, and adhere to soil extremely well.
Therefore, even though the property stopped serving as an orchard, pesticide residues may still be
present in the soil. Farmers began to use DDT as a pesticide in the 1940s. Usually, DDT does not
spread to more than a foot below ground surface (Hayes, 1975).
According to Toxicology of Pesticides, "residues of pesticides in soil are rarely important as a source
of direct exposure to people" (Hayes, 1975). The only orchard maintenance occurring at the subject
property is discing of the soil, which could significantly decrease the residual pesticides at the
subject property (Hayes, 1975). The potential for residual pesticides in the soil to adversely affect
human health is minimal. Major disturbance of the soil may increase potential for human exposure
to residual pesticide potentially present in the soil. In general, high concentrations of certain
pesticide compounds in soil can classify soil as hazardous waste.
5.9 Lead -Based Paint
Due to the age of the buildings on the subject property, it is likely that lead-based paints have been
used. During the site walkthrough, flaking paint and paint chips were observed on the window
sills of the shop and on the walls of the western pump house (Photographs 3 and 5). CDM observed
no paint chips on the soil at these areas. Based on the extent of flaking paint, the potential for soil in
contact with paint ships to have elevated levels of lead from the lead-based paint is minimal.

Conclusions and Recommendations
This Phase I ESA is based upon information researched and made available to CDM through May 5,
1999. Any subsequent information received by CDM which modifies the conclusions of this report
will be submitted to the City of Cupertino Public Works Department in later correspondence.
Based on the information provided to CDM and observations made during the walkthrough of the
subject property, no recognized environmental conditions at the subject property were discovered
during the performance of the Phase I ESA. No information was discovered that would suggest
that off-site properties had released contaminants that would results in environmental
contamination of the subject property.
However, due to the age of the structures at the subject property it is likely asbestos -containing
material (ACM) and lead-based paints were used during construction and any renovations. The
existence of friable and/or non -friable ACM is possible in the wallboard, roofing, flooring, and
chimney materials. During the site walkthrough, CDM made cursory visual observations for ACM
and observed no material suspected of containing friable ACM. Prior to any renovation or
demolition of the buildings at the subject property, CDM recommends a certified asbestos
consultant conduct an asbestos survey of the buildings.
During the site walkthrough, flaking paint and paint chips were observed on the window sills of the
shop building and on the wall of the western pump house. Based on the extent of flaking paint, the
potential for soil in contact with paint ships to have elevated levels of lead from the lead-based paint
is minimal.
In addition, the subject property served as a commercial orchard until the late 1960s. It is possible,
although no evidence was found during this Phase I ESA, that the potential mismanagement (i.e.,
spill during mixing or dilution and over application) of pesticides from uses associated with the
orchard may have adversely impacted the subject property. The potential for residual pesticides in
the soil to adversely affect human health is minimal. The orchard maintenance that occurs at the
subject property could reduce the residual pesticides in the soil. In general, high concentrations of
certain pesticide compounds in soil can classify soil as hazardous waste. Prior to any major
disturbance of the soil at the subject property, CDM recommends collecting soil samples to
determine the extent of impact, if any.
Finally, one abandoned well exists at the eastern pump house in the southwest section of the subject
property. If the well will no longer be used, CDM recommends properly destroying the well with
the approval of the Santa Clara Valley Water District.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Surrounding Properties:
Elevations have been determined from the USGS 1 degree Digital Elevation Model and should be evaluated
on a relative (not an absolute) basis. Relative elevation information between sites of close proximity
should be field verified. EDR's definition of a site with an elevation equal to the subject property
includes a tolerance of -10 feet. Sites with an elevation equal to or higher than the subject property
have been differentiated below from sites with an elevation lower than the subject property (by more than
10 feet). Page numbers and map identification numbers refer to the EDR Radius Map report where detailed
data on individual sites can be reviewed.
Sites listed in bold italics are in multiple databases.
CAL -SITES: Formerly known as ASPIS, this database contains both known and potential hazardous
substance sites. The source is the California Department of Toxic Substance Control.
A review of the Cal -Sites list, as provided by EDR, has revealed that there is 1 Cal -Sites site
within approximately 1 mile of the subject property.

Dear Mr. Bobel:
This letter is to request your concurrence with this Department's
intention to issue a public notice and accept public comment
regarding closure of the Zilog, Inc. facility which was located
at 10640 Bubb Road, Cupertino, California. The Department has
determined that the Zilog facility was closed in a manner
consistent with Title 22, California Administrative Code, and
that said closure was certified by the facility operator and an
engineer duly registered to practice in the State of California.
Based on information available at this time, the Department of
Health has further determined that no contamination resultingfromZilog's activities remains at the site. There are, however,
small concentrations of residual contaminants of uncertain origin
in the soil.
The Department therefore is proposing to permit closure of the
Zilcg facility, with no requirement for Zilog to pursue
additional closure or post closure activities at this time.
Your attention to this matter is appreciated. If you have any
questions, please contact Mr. Daniel E. Murphy at (415) 540-2043.

Dear Mr. Bouse:
Subject. Fuel Leak Investigation at Kaiser Cement, 24001 Stevens Creek Boulevard, Cupertino, CA
Per our February 26, 1999, telephone conversation, I am forwarding to you a copy of the Santa Clara
Valley Water District (District's) February 7, 1997, letter and additional information. The staff at
California Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB) closed the portion of this case that involves
gasoline tanks (Upper Service Station). The remaining source areas to be addressed are listed below and
documented in our enclosed letter. Please prepare and submit a work plan to define the extent of
contamination in the Lower Service Station and Emergency Generator areas.
TECHNICAL COMMENTS
1. There are five former source areas at this site:
Lower Service Station
Emergency Generator
Garage
Oil House
Upper Service Station
2. Lower Service Station Area
Prepare a work plan to define the extent of soil and groundwater pollution associated with four
removed 1,000 gallon diesel tanks. Following tank removal, reportedly floating product was
observed on water in the tank pit and excavated soils contained strong diesel fuel odors. Reportedly,
no samples were collected from this area and the excavation was backfilled.
Emergency Generator Area
Define the extent of soil and groundwater pollution associated with one removed 4,000 gallon diesel
tank. Following tank removal, reportedly the tank appeared undamaged with no apparent leaks, but
the associated connecting lines and plumbing showed obvious leakage. Excavated soils contained
diesel odors and the excavation contained product. No samples were collected and the excavation
was backfilled.
4. Garage and Oil House Areas
No further work is necessary.
Mr. Earl Bouse 2 March 2, 1999
Upper Service Station Area
No further work is necessary; The RWQCB granted closure for this area December 21, 1995.
However, if you are no long utilizing the groundwater monitoring wells installed in this area, you
should properly abandon them. Contact Mr, Dave Zozaya in the District's Well Services Unit,
408) 927-0710, extension 2650. It appears that three groundwater monitoring wells were installed
near the existing underground storage tanks.
6. Because closure has been granted for the only gasoline tanks at your site, it is not necessary to repeat
the analyses for fuel oxygenates in your next investigation. However, it will be necessary to analyze
soil and groundwater samples for the gasoline additive Methyl tert-Butyl Ether (MTBE), and to
report the analytical results in your data tables, as well as include the laboratory analytical results
for all samples analyzed If analytical results for samples yield positive results under method 8020,
we suggest you use confirmation analyses, with analytical method 8260 or comparable, to confirm
the presence of MTBE at your site.
A typical way of defining the extent of contamination near and in former source areas is to install
soil borings and to collect soil and groundwater samples for analysis, at depth intervals of 5 feet and
at significant lithologic breaks. In order to define the vertical extent of contamination, it is necessary
to collect samples until either: you reach groundwater and collect a grab groundwater sample for
analysis, or obtain non-detectable analytical results for petroleum hydrocarbon contamination to a
significant depth in the soil. In order to define the lateral extent of contamination, it is necessary to
install borings laterally from the source areas until analytical results for samples indicate significant
contaminant attenuation with distance from the source area.
REQUEST
Prepare a work plan to address comments 1 and 2 above, due no later than April 16, 1999.
This request is made pursuant to the Regional Water Quality Control Board's authority under
Section 13267 of the California Water Code.
If you have any questions, please call me at (408) 265-2607, extension 2639.

Executive Summary
Camp Dresser & McKee Inc. (CDM) was contracted by the City of Cupertino Public Works
Department to perform a Phase I Environmental Site Assessment (ESA) of the property located at
22120 Stevens Creek Boulevard in Cupertino, California (referred to as the subject property).
The subject property is owned jointly by relatives Mr. Alan Stocklmeir, Ms. Janet Trankle, Ms. Pam
Stocklmeir, and Mr. Kurt Stocklmeir. The subject property has been owned by the Stocklmeir
family since the early 1900s. The approximately five -acre subject property currently contains two
rental residential units and a noncommercial orchard.
This Phase I ESA was performed in general accordance with American Society for Testing and
Materials (ASTM) standard designation E1527-97 with the purpose of identifying recognized
environmental conditions' at the subject property. The results of the Phase I ESA were based upon
information provided to CDM by Mr. Alan Stocklmeir (the most knowledgeable of the owners),
review of pertinent historical documents, and observations specific to environmental conditions
made by CDM during a site walkthrough of the subject property conducted on April 22, 1999.
The subject property was assessed for recognized environmental conditions with respect to
hazardous substances, solid waste/non-hazardous waste, polychlorinated biphenyls, asbestos -
containing materials, air quality, storage tanks, water, wastewater, storm water, herbicide and
pesticide use, and lead-based paint.
During the site walkthrough, the subject property appeared to be well maintained. Based on CDM's
site walkthrough, interviews, and review of site-specific information, there were no indications that
prior or current use of the subject property has resulted in recognized environmental conditions.
No evidence was discovered that would indicate that adjacent properties caused recognized
environmental conditions at the subject property.
However, due to the age of the structures at the subject property it is likely asbestos -containing
material (ACM) and lead-based paints were used during construction and any renovations. The
existence of friable and/or non -friable ACM is possible in the wallboard, roofing, flooring, and
chimney materials. During the site walkthrough, CDM made cursory visual observations for ACM
and observed no material suspected of containing friable ACM. Prior to any renovation or
demolition of the buildings at the subject property, CDM recommends a certified asbestos
As used in ASTM E1527-97, "recognized environmental condition' means the following:
The presence or likely presence of any hazardous substances or petroleum products on a property under conditions that
indicated an existing release, a past release, or a material threat of a release of any hazardous substances or petroleum
products into structures on the property or into the ground, groundwater, or surface water of the property. The term
includes hazardous substances or petroleum products even under conditions in compliance with laws. The term is not
intended to include de minimis conditions that generally do not present a material risk of harm to public health or the
environment and that generally would not be the subject of an enforcement action if brought to the attention of
appropriate governmental agencies" (ASTM, 1997).

Phase I Environmental Site Assessment Executive Summary
consultant conduct an asbestos survey of the buildings.
During the site walkthrough, flaking paint and paint chips were observed on the window sills of the
shop building and one pump house. Based on the extent of flaking paint, the potential for soil in
contact with paint ships to have elevated levels of lead from the lead-based paint is minimal.
In addition, the subject property served as a commercial orchard until the late 1960s. It is possible,
although no evidence was fo-und during this Phase I ESA, that the potential mismanagement (i.e.,
spill during mixing or dilution and over application) of pesticides from uses associated with the
orchard may have adversely impacted the subject property. The potential for residual pesticides in
the soil to adversely affect human health is minimal. The orchard maintenance that occurs at the
subject property could reduce the residual pesticides in the soil. In general, high concentrations of
certain pesticide compounds in soil can classify soil as hazardous waste. Prior to any major
disturbance of the soil at the subject property, CDM recommends collecting soil samples to
determine the extent of impact, if any.
Finally, one abandoned well exists at the eastern pump house in the southwest section of the subject
property. If the well will no longer be used, CDM recommends properly destroying the well with
the approval of the Santa Clara Valley Water District.
This Executive Summary is not intended to be read as a stand alone document. The reader should
review the detailed information regarding each item in the following sections: Section 3, Property
Description; Section 4, Records Review; and Section 5, Site Reconnaissance and Interviews.

Introduction
This section describes the purpose of the study and presents the scope of work as well as limitations
to the investigation.
2.1 Purpose
CDM was contracted by the City of Cupertino Public Works Department to perform a Phase I ESA
of the subject property located at 22120 Stevens Creek Boulevard in Cupertino, California, for the
purpose of identifying recognized environmental conditions.
2.2 Description of Work
CDM received written authorization to proceed on April 13, 1999 from Mr. Bert Viskovich of the
City of Cupertino Public Works Department. Upon authorization to proceed, CDM arranged a site
walkthrough of the subject property through Mr. Alan Stocklmeir, one of the owners of the subject
property.
On April 22,1999, CDM met with Mr. Stocklmeir at the subject property to discuss background
information pertinent to the assessment of the subject property. After the meeting, CDM conducted
a site walkthrough of the subject property, which consists of six buildings and an orchard of
approximately 170 orange, walnut, and apricot trees. Mr. Stocklmeir accompanied CDM during the
site walkthrough and provided information regarding the current and historical uses of the subject
property.
Observations made by CDM were noted and photographs of the subject property were taken
during the site walkthrough. Select photographs of the subject property are provided in Appendix
A. Appendix B contains information reviewed pertinent to the subject property.
In addition, a search of federal, state, and local environmental databases was conducted by
Environmental Data Resources, Inc. (EDR). The database search report provides information
regarding any past or current hazardous waste disposal sites; reported petroleum or hazardous
waste releases; listed hazardous waste generation, transportation, storage, or disposal facilities;
listed solid waste disposal facilities; report leaking underground storage tanks; or listed
underground storage tanks at the subject property and properties in the vicinity of the subject
property. A copy of the EDR database report is provided in Appendix C. Cursory observations
were made of surrounding properties listed in the EDR database during an drive-through survey of
the area.
During April 20 through May 5, 1999, various federal, state, and local environmental regulatory
agencies were contacted as part of an investigation of the history of the subject property and to
determine whether prior use of the subject property has resulted in recognized environmental
conditions. Agency personnel were also questioned about the existence of recognized

Introduction
environmental conditions in the vicinity of the subject property. Names and affiliations of persons
contacted for information for this Phase I ESA and a list of information reviewed are provided in
Section 7. Copies of information request letters sent to environmental regulatory agencies and
subsequent responses are provided in Appendix D.
2.3 Limiting Conditions and Methodology Used
The results of this Phase I ESA are based on interviews with environmental regulatory agency and
subject property personnel, a walkthrough of the subject property, and a review of acquired
environmental regulatory agency documents and subject property information. The conclusions,
therefore, represent CDM's professional opinion based on these aforementioned sources of
information. This report has been prepared for the exclusive use of the City of Cupertino Public
Works Department. It is not intended for use by other parties.
If evidence of recognized environmental conditions are discovered based on CDM's review of
information requested but not as yet provided, CDM will notify the City of Cupertino Public Works
Department of these newly discovered issues. Therefore, is supplemental information warrants,
CDM reserves the right to change conclusions and recommendations stated in this Phase I ESA.

Site Description and History
building are each one-story wooden buildings with concrete foundations (Photographs 1 through
3). The open-air garages have wooden frames with corrugated heavy plastic roofs. The main
residence and studio apartment were built in approximately 1900, and the shop building, garages,
and pump houses were built around 1950.
The pump at the pump house located at the northern end of the property was installed around 1920
Photograph 4). It provides water from Stevens Creek for the garden area near the main residence.
Historically, it pumped water for use in irrigating the orchard on the subject property. The pump
system consists of a PVC pipe that enters the creek, a pressure tank to hold the creek water, the
pump, and garden hoses used for distribution.
The western pump house at the southern end of the property pumped creek water for irrigating the
orchard (Photograph 5). The pump system consisted of a trap door in the creek bed, a concrete
holding pit, and the pump. The holding pit is located in the concrete structure between the western
and eastern pump houses. This concrete structure, covered with wooden planks, is separated into
two comparments: one for the creek water and one for the groundwater well. According to Mr.
Stocklmeir, the creek water pump was installed in the 1920s or 1930s. The 8 -foot by 10 -foot pump
house is now used for storage space. The pump is operable but has not been used in approximately
twenty years.
The eastern pump house at the southern end of the subject property houses a pump and equipment
for a drinking water well (Photograph 6). The groundwater well is located in the concrete structure
between the two pump houses. The well was installed between 1900 to 1905. Mr. Stocklmeir is
unaware of the depth of the well; however, Mr. Stocklmeir stated that distribution pipes at least 120
feet long have been pulled out of the well. The well was used as the main drinking water source for
the subject property until the property was connected to the City's water lines. The well system
consists of pipes inserted to reach the groundwater, the pump, and a concrete pressure tank. The
pump is inoperable and has not been used in over 50 years. The 8 -foot by 10 -foot pump house is
now used for storage space.
3.4 Current Uses of Property
Since 1996, Mr. Stocklmeir has rented out the main residence and the studio apartment. The
orchard, consisting of approximately 150 orange trees and 20 walnut and apricot trees, fills the
majority of the subject property not occupied by the main residence, pump houses, and other
structures (Photographs 7 and 8). The orchard no longer functions as a commercial operation. The
oranges are picked every March by volunteers from the Second Harvest Food Bank of Santa Clara
and San Mateo Counties in San Jose, California. According to Mr. Stocklmeir, the extent of current
orchard maintenance is discing the orchard surface two to three times a year.
3.5 Past Uses of Property
According to Mr. Stocklmeir, the subject property has been owned by the Stocklmeir family since
the turn of the century. Mr. Stocklmeir's great grandmother lived at the main residence from 1900
until the mid -1940s. His grandparents then lived at subject property from 1949 to 1996, at which
time the main residence and studio apartment were rented out.

Phase l Environmental Site Assessment Site Description and History
Until the late 1960s, the subject property ran a commercial orchard. The orchard area was primarily
walnut trees and customers would come to the property to pick the nuts. A portion of the orchard
was leased out for growing flowers. The orchard became economically unfeasible and the
commercial business ended in the late 1960s. In the mid-1970s, the majority of the walnut trees were
removed and replaced with orange trees. About twenty walnut and apricot trees remain at the
northern end of the orchard.
3.6 Current and Past Uses of Adjoining Property
The Stocklmeir family owned the land adjacent to the west side of the subject property before the
area was developed into residences. That area grew additional walnut trees and was also leased out
for flower growing. The Stocklmeir family sold that land in 1976.
Aerial photographs, available from Pacific Aerial Surveys, were reviewed. The photographs were
from the years 1960, 1968, 1978, and 1988. Appendix B presents copies of these aerial photographs.
In the 1960 photograph, the surrounding area was used for agricultural and residential purposes.
Orchards occupied the subject property, the adjacent property to the west, and portions of the area
east of the subject property which is currently Blackberry Farm Park. The main residence is visible
through the vegetation on the subject property.
In the 1968 photograph, more of the surrounding area has been converted to residential uses.
Orchards occupy the subject property and the adjacent property to the west. The area east of the
subject property has been developed into a golf course.
In the 1978 photograph, the majority of the surrounding area is residential property. On the subject
property, the main residence, shop, garages, and pump hoses are visible. The studio apartment is
not visible due to vegetation at the subject property. The northern portion of the orchard area
appears to be heavily planted, but the southern half is either open space or lightly planted. Housing
has been developed along Scenic Boulevard, adjacent to the subject property to the west.
In the 1988 photograph, a few small agricultural areas still exist north and east of the subject
property. The surrounding area is residential. At the subject property, all of the current structures
are visible. The northern portion of the orchard is planted with large trees, while the southern
portion has smaller trees.

4.2 Database Search Results
A summary of listed environmental sites within the requested search distance follows.
National Priorities List (NPL) Sites
The National Priorities List (NPL) is a list of the nation's most serious hazardous waste sites. NPL
sites are those sites which the United States Environmental Protection Agency (USEPA), under its
Superfund program, has determined to be a significant threat to public health. The Records of
Decision (ROD) document mandates a permanent remedy at an NPL site containing technical and
health information to aid the cleanup. The USEPA has the authority to file liens (NPL Liens) against
real estate property in order to recover remedial action expenditures or when the property owner
receives notification of potential liability.
The database searches indicated no NPL and ROD sites within a one -mile radius of the subject
property. There are no liens against the subject property and the subject property was not on nor
deleted from the NPL.
Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (RCRA) Sites
The RCRIS databases contain data compiled for RCRA and the Hazardous and Solid Waste
Amendments of 1984. RCRIS lists sites which treat, store or dispose of hazardous waste as defined
by RCRA. RCRA administration action tracking system (RAATS) contains records based on
enforcement action issued under RCRA pertaining to major violators and includes administrative
and civil suits. Under RCRA, the CORRACTS database contains hazardous waste haulers which
are undergoing corrective action.
The RCRIS database indicates that no TSD sites are located within a 0.5 -mile radius of the subject
property. The subject property is not listed in the RAATS database.
The CORRACTS database search indicated one CORRACTS site within a one -mile radius of the
subject property. Zilog Incorporated is located approximately 0.75 miles southeast of the subject
property. Zilog manufactured silicon, semiconductor wafers, and microprocessors, and was listed
as a hazardous waste storage facility. Zilog operated three USTs: one for storage of waste solvents

acetone, isopropanol, freon, trichloroethane, xylene, and n -butyl acetate); one for containment of
potential solvent spills; and one for containment of potential sulfuric, nitric, and hydrofluoric acid
spills (J.H. Kleinfelder & Associates, 1983). J.H. Kleinfelder & Associates concluded no soil
degradation had occurred from the operation of the acid spill tank, and no additional analytical
testing was necessary for the waste solvent storage and spill containment USTs due to only trace
levels (less than 20 micrograms per kilogram) of tetrachloroethane, toulene, and benzene found in
soil samples near the other two USTs (J.H. Kleinfelder & Associates, 1983). According to Zilog,
those chemicals were not used in their operations. In 1987, the California Department of Health
Services (DHS) determined that no contamination resulting from Zilog's operations remained at the
site (DHS, 1987). The Zilog site was officially closed by the DHS in 1988 (DHS, 1988).
Due to the site closure by DHS, trace levels of contaminants in the soil, and distance from the subject
property, it is unlikely that the site has impacted the subject property.
RCRA Registered Large and Small Generators (LG GEN, SM GEN)
of Hazardous Waste
The EPA's RCRA facility database lists facilities which report generation, storage, transportation,
treatment or disposal of hazardous waste. RCRA Large Generators (LG GEN) are facilities which
generate at least 1,000 kilograms of non -acutely hazardous waste per month while Small Generators
SM GEN) produce less per month.
No SM GEN or LG GEN sites are located within a 0.25 -mile radius of the subject property.
Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act
CERCLA) Sites
The CERCLA Information System (CERCLIS) supports EPA Headquarters and regions for the
management and oversight of the Superfund program. CERCLA sites are either on the NPL or are
in screening and assessment phase for possible inclusion on the NPL. CONSENT decrees are major
legal settlements that establish responsibility and standards for cleanup at NPL sites. CERC-
NFRAP sites are those CERCLA sites where no contamination was found, contamination was
removed quickly, or the contamination was not serious enough to require NPL consideration.
No CERCLIS or CONSENT sites are located within a 0.5 -mile and 1 -mile radius of the subject
property, respectively. The subject property was not listed on the CERC-NFRAP database.
PCB Activity Database System (PADS)
The PADS identifies generators, transporters, commercial storers and/or brokers and disposers of
polychlorinated biphenyls (PCBs) who are required to notify the EPA of such activities.
The PADS database search indicated that the subject property is not a PADS site.
Emergency Response Notification System (ERNS)
The ERNS list is a national database used to collect information on reported accidental releases of
oil and hazardous substances. Spill reports are made to federal authorities including the EPA, the

US Coast Guard, the National Response Center and the Department of Transportation.
The ERNS database search indicated that the subject property is not an ERNS site.
Facility Index System (FINDS)
FINDS contains both facility information and references to other sources that contain more detail.
The FINDS database search indicated that the subject property is not a FINDS site.
Toxic Release Inventory Database (TRIS)
Section 313 of the Emergency Planning and Community Right -to -Know Act (also known as SARA
Title III) of 1986 requires the EPA to establish an inventory of toxic chemicals emissions from certain
facilities. Facilities subject to this reporting are required to complete a Toxic Chemical Release Form
Form R) for specified chemicals.
The TRIS database search indicated that the subject property is not a TRIS site.
Toxic Substances Control Act (TSCA)
TSCA identifies manufactures and importers of chemical substances included on the TSCA
Chemical Substance Inventory list. It includes data on the production volume of these substances
by plant site.
The TSCA database search indicated that the subject property is not a TSCA site.
Material Licensing Tracking System (MLTS)
MLTS is maintained by the Nuclear Regulatory Commission and contains a list of approximately
8,100 sites which possess or use radioactive materials and which are subject to NRC licensing
requirements.
The MLTS database search indicated that the subject property is not a MLTS site.
Hazardous Materials Information Reporting Systems (HMIRS)
The HMIRS database contains hazardous material spill incidents reported to the Department of
Transportation.
The HMIRS database search indicated that the subject property is not a HMIRS site.
California Annual Workplan (AWP)
California Department of Toxic Substance Control's Annual Workplan, formerly Bond Expenditure
Plan (BEP), identifies known hazardous substance sites targeted for cleanup.
The AWP and BEP database search indicated no AWP or BEP sites within a one -mile radius of the
subject property.

Calsites (CAL -SITES)
The CAL -SITES database contains potential or confirmed hazardous substance release properties as
reported by the California Department of Toxic Substance Control (DTSC).
The CAL -SITES database search indicated one CAL -SITES site within a one -mile radius of the
subject property. Kaiser Aluminum and Chemical Corporation (KACC) is located just under one
mile west of the subject property. In 1987, KACC decontaminated and closed a paint/sludge UST.
Oil and grease was found in the surrounding soil at concentrations of 1,100 to 2,600 milligrams per
kilogram (mg/kg). A subsequent investigation found that samples from underlying soils had
chromium and lead levels consistent with regional background levels, and purgeable and aromatic
hydrocarbons levels below detection limits. One groundwater sample from the site exceeded the
Primary Drinking Water Standard for chromium (Exceltech, Inc., 1988).
In 1988, a kerosene spill occurred at KACC. Excavated contaminated soil contained high levels of
vegetable oil. Subsequent analysis of samples from the area of the release indicated vegetable oil in
the soil samples at concentrations from 19 to 24 mg/kg, and in a groundwater sample at a
concentration of 100 micrograms per liter. Total petroleum hydrocarbon (TPH) as kerosene was
found in soil samples ranging in concentration from 14 to 32 mg/kg, but was not detected in
groundwater. TPH as kerosene concentrations in soil were below the action level of 100 mg/kg.
No action level exists for vegetable oil in soil or groundwater (ENSCO Environmental Services,
1988).
No documentation from the San Francisco Bay Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB) or
any other environmental agency on action taken at the KACC site existed in the RWQCB files. Mr.
David Bar with the RWQCB stated the KACC case is inactive, a status which usually occurs when
there is a shortage of staff to investigate the case at its onset. Even though the groundwater flow is
the area is to the east, Mr. Bar indicated that the subject property was unlikely to have been
impacted by the KACC site due to the distance, just under one mile, between the two sites.
Proposition 65 (Notify 65)
Notify 65 contains facility notifications about any release which could impact drinking water and
thereby expose the public to a potential health risk.
The Notify 65 database search indicated one Notify 65 site within a one -mile radius of the subject
property. Arco Service Station #6182 is located approximately 0.40 miles west of the subject
property. The site was also listed in the LUST Region 2 database as having reported a release from
a gasoline UST in 1988. According to the EDR report, the Santa Clara Valley Water District
SCVWD) signed off on the site on July 29, 1996.
Due to the case closure by the SCVWD, it is unlikely that the Notify 65 site has impacted the subject
property.
California Hazardous Material Information Reporting System (CHMIRS)
The CHMIRS contains hazardous material spill incidents reported to Department of Transportation.
The CHMIRS database search indicated no CHMIRS sites within a one -mile radius of the subject

property.
State Index of Properties with Hazardous Waste (Cortese)
The Cortese database identifies public drinking water wells with detectable levels of contamination,
hazardous substance sites selected for remedial action, sites with known toxic material identified
through the abandoned site assessment program, sites with underground storage tanks having a
reportable release and all solid waste disposal facilities from which there is known migration. The
source is the California Environmental Protection Agency.
The Cortese database search indicated two Cortese sites within a one -mile radius of the subject
property. The Kaiser Aluminum and Chemical Corporation is located just under a mile from the
subject property. A detailed description of the release and subsequent investigation can be found
above in the section on CAL -SITES sites. The other Cortese site is the Measurex Corporation and is
further discussed under LUST sites.
Toxic Pits
Toxic Pit sites are suspected of containing hazardous substances where cleanup has not yet been
completed.
The Toxic Pits database search indicated no Toxic Pit sites within a one -mile radius of the subject
property.
California Spills, Leaks, Investigation & Cleanup (CA SLIC)
CA SLIC sites are sites that have impacted groundwater or have the potential to impact
groundwater. The CA SLIC database is provided by the RWQCB.
The CA SLIC database search indicated one CA SLIC site within a 0.5 -mile radius of the subject
property. The Cupertino Post Office is located approximately 0.45 miles east of the subject property.
The EDR report states a release from a waste oil UST occurred at the site. The RWQCB closed the
site investigation on August 10, 1993.
Based on the case closure by the RWQCB, it is unlikely that the CA SLIC site has impacted the
subject property.
State Landfill
The Solid Waste Facilities /Landfill SITES site (SWF/LF) type records typically contain an inventory
of solid waste disposal facilities or landfills in a particular state. Depending on the state, these may
be active or inactive facilities or open dumps that fail to meet RCRA Subtitle D Section 4004 criteria
for solid waste landfills or disposal sites.
The State Landfill database search indicated no state landfill sites located within a 0.5 -mile radius of
the subject property.

Underground and Aboveground Storage Tanks (UST/AST), Leaking Underground
Storage Tanks (LUST)
The Hazardous Substance Storage Container Database is a historic listing of UST and LUST sites.
The source of the database is from the State Water Resource Control Board (SWRCB). The database
search located no registered UST sites within a 0.25 -mile radius. The AST database lists registered
ASTs as reported by the SWRCB. The EDR database reported no ASTs at the subject property.
The LUST database search indicated 11 LUST sites within a 0.5 -mile radius of the subject property.
Of the 11 sites listed, "Dennis Hall Property," "Arco #6182," "U.S. Postal Service," and "Measurez
Corporation" are duplicates. Of the remaining seven LUST sites, six site investigations have been
closed ("Facciola Residence," "Dennis Hall Property," "Arco," "US Postal Service," "Higdon, Alley,
Kolb" and "Measurex Corporation"). Neither the RWQCB nor the SCVWD has a file for the
remaining site, the Mobile Service Station. The RWQCB and the EDR database report that the site
was removed from the SCVWD's LUST database. Ms. Jeanette Townsend of the SCVWD, the lead
agency for the site, confirmed that that agency has no file for the site and if the site was removed
from the LUST database there was no contamination problem at the site. This concurs with the EDR
database which reports the soil contamination occurred at such a low level as to not pose a threat to
water quality.
Based on the information from the RWQCB and SCVWD, it is unlikely that the LUST sites have
impacted the subject property.
Waste Management Unit Database (WMUDS/SWAT)
WMUDS/SWAT is used by the SWRCB to track and inventory waste management units and consist
of 12 separate databases.
The WMUDS/SWAT database search indicated there are no WMUDS/SWAT sites within a 0.5 -mile
radius of the subject property.
Hazardous Waste Information System (HAZNET)
The California Environmental Protection Agency provides a database (HAZNET) from the manifest
data extracted from copies of hazardous waste manifests received each year by the DTSC.
The HAZNET database search indicated four HAZNET sites within a 0.25 -mile radius of the subject
property. Of the four sites, "Clarks Auto Parts & Machine" is a duplicate. The three remaining sites
Dan Facciola", "Lynn Markey", and "Clarks Auto Parts & Machine") do not have files at the
California Environmental Protection Agency. The DTSC is currently reviewing their files to
determine if information exists on the remaining sits. If information does become available that
suggests a HAZNET site has had the potential to impact the subject property, CDM will notify the
Cupertino Public Works Department.
California Facility Inventory Database (FID)
California Environmental Protection Agency provides the Facility Inventory Database (FID) which
contains a historical listing from the SWRCB.

The FID database search indicated no FID sites within a 0.25 -mile radius of the subject property.
California Waste Discharge System (CA WDS)
CA WDS sites are sites which may have been issued waste discharge requirements by the SWRCB.
The CA WDS database search indicated the subject property is not a CA WDS site.
South Bay Site Management System (SOUTH BAY)
The SOUTH BAY database lists groundwater pollution cases in the Santa Clara Valley where the
regulatory lead is the San Francisco Bay RWQCB.
The SOUTH BAY database search indicted the subject property is not a SOUTH BAY site.
Orphan Sites
Orphan sites are sites listed in any of the databases EDR searched and are potentially within one
mile of the subject property, but cannot be accurately mapped.
The EDR database search indicated eight orphan sites potentially within one -mile of the subject
property. Two sites are duplicates either of sites on the orphans list or sites from the other
databases ("Arco Stn #495" and "Kaiser Aluminum"). Based on the partial addresses provided for
the orphan sites, CDM concluded five of the sites to be greater than one -mile from the subject
property: "Arco Service Station #495," "Texaco," "Doneervyn's," and "Rancho Service Center."
The remaining site, Hanson Permanente Cement, formerly Kaiser Cement Corporation, is located
just under one mile west of the subject property. A number of USTs in five areas at the site have
been removed or closed in place. In 1993, Kaiser Cement Corporation removed one 10,000 -gallon
diesel UST and two 10,000 -gallon gasoline USTs from the Upper Service Station area. Soil samples
revealed only minor levels of total petroleum hydrocarbons. TPH as gasoline was detected at a
maximum concentration of 22 mg/kg, and TPH as diesel was not detected above laboratory
reporting limits (RWQCB, 1995). The RWQCB closed the site investigation of this area in 1995. A
copy of the closure letter is included in Appendix D.
According to SCVWD files, four 1,000 -gallon diesel USTs were removed from the Lower Service
Station. Floating product was observed in the tank pit and excavated soils had a strong diesel odor,
but no soil samples were collected. One 4,000 -gallon diesel UST was removed from the Emergency
Generator Area. During removal, the tank appeared undamaged but its lines and plumbing
showed signs of leakage. Excavated soil had a diesel odor and contained product. No soil samples
were obtained from this area. USTs were also removed from the Garage and Oil House areas. At
least two of these USTs were closed in place.
According to the SCVWD, no further remedial work is necessary at the Garage and Oil House areas.
On March 2, 1999, the SCVWD requested Hanson Permanent Cement submit a work plan to define
the extent of soil and groundwater contamination at the Lower Service Station and the Emergency
Generator Area (SCVWD, 1999). According to Ms. Adele Shepherd with SCVWD, Hanson
Permanente Cement submitted a workplan which has been approved by the SCVWD and is now
being implemented.

Records Review
Even though the groundwater flow is the area is to the east, due to the distance of the Hanson
Permanente Cement site from the subject property (just under one mile), the potential is minimal
that the LUST site has impacted the subject property.
4.2 Physical Setting
The property is located in the west -central portion of the Santa Clara Valley which is a broad
structural trough infilled with alluvial sediments. The subject property is within the corporate
boundaries of the City of Cupertino. Stevens Creek flows adjacent to the east and south sides of the
subject property.
The climate in the area maintains a fairly constant temperature due the effects of surrounding
bodies of water, the Pacific Ocean and the San Francisco Bay. Summers are cool and often foggy
and winters are moderately wet. The subject property experiences the same climatic conditions as
much of the Santa Clara Valley which is represented by climate data collected in San Jose. Based on
50 years of climate data, a monthly average minimum temperature of 41.3 degrees Fahrenheit (°F)
occurs in January and a monthly average maximum temperature of 82.2 OF occurs in July.
Temperature extremes have been recorded at a low of 19 OF in December 1990 to a high of 108 OF in
July 1972. The annual average precipitation is 14.61 inches (Western Regional Climate Center,
1999).
The subject property is situated in the central part of the Coast Ranges, which is characterized by a
series of parallel, northwesterly -trending, folded and faulted mountain chains. In this part of the
province, flatland topography is underlain by recent alluvium which is typically underlain by
non -marine and marine sedimentary rocks. The region has been folded and faulted as a result of
major uplift of the area.
The Department of Water Resources (DWR) identifies the Santa Clara Formation as a principle
group of the water -bearing units in the Santa Clara Valley groundwater basin (Bulletin No. 118-1,
1975). DWR's report modeled the entire basin and identified preferential groundwater pathways
created by highly permeable coarse-grained channel deposits of the Santa Clara Formation which
have been intersected by numerous faults. Another study by DWR (Bulletin No. 66-62, 1964) states
that the main source of groundwater in the Santa Clara Valley is the younger alluvium and that the
Santa Clara Formation is of secondary importance. In addition, the principal aquifers of the area
exhibit pressure characteristics so that the groundwater is both confined and unconfined.
Groundwater flow in the area generally follows the topography, which would indicate an easterly
flow gradient (EMCON Associates, 1993). Groundwater in this area of the Santa Clara Valley is
generally a bicarbonate type with sodium and calcium the predominant cations. Although
moderately to very hard, the waters are of good to excellent quality and suitable for most uses
DWR, 1964).

Site Reconnaissance and Interviews
On April 22, 1999, CDM met with Mr. Alan Stocklmeir, one of the four owners of the subject
property, at the subject property. Mr. Stocklmeir was interviewed by CDM to obtain information
regarding the subject property history, existing conditions, and property -specific information
related to current and past operations. The Stocklmeir family has owned the subject property since
the 1900s, and Mr. Stocklmeir is the most knowledgeable of the current family owners about the
subject property. The interview was followed by a walkthrough of the subject property.
The subject property was assessed for recognized environmental conditions with respect to
hazardous substances, solid waste/non-hazardous waste, polychlorinated biphenyls, asbestos -
containing materials, air quality, storage tanks, water, wastewater, storm water, herbicides and
pesticides, and lead-based paint. CDM did not access the interior of the buildings on the subject
property, but observations were made through the windows.
5.1 Hazardous Substances
No hazardous substances were observed at the subject property. Mr. Stocklmeir is not aware of any
spills or releases of hazardous substances on the subject property or surround properties. During
the site walkthrough, CDM did not observe any operations that would produce hazardous wastes.
5.2 Solid Waste/Non-Hazardous Waste
During the site walkthrough, several piles of solid waste were observed at the subject property.
One small pile of used wooden shingles is present at the southern end of the site. Along the
western boundary of the subject property, small piles of building materials such as metal fencing,
lumber, and metal pipes were observed (Photograph 9). Mr. Stocklmeir indicated the shingles were
previously used on one of the pump houses, and the building materials are related to his personal
contractor business. According to Mr. Stocklmeir, there are no discarded items on the subject
property.
Residential waste generated at the subject property is disposed of through Cupertino's city-wide
trash disposal service.
5.3 Polychlorinated Biphenyls
According to Mr. Bob Bondy of Pacific Gas and Electric Company (PG&E), there are two pieces of
oil -filled electrical equipment on the subject property. A capacitor bank is located at the
northeastern corner of the subject property at the corner of the driveway and Stevens Creek
Boulevard. According to Mr. Bondy, the capacitor is labeled as having no PCB -containing fluid.
PG&E also operates a pole -mounted transformer located at the southern corner of the subject
property. No sticker is affixed to this transformer. According to Mr. Bondy, PG&E does not test
transformers for PCBs if they have not been leaking. Mr. Bondy stated that if the residential units at
CDM Camp Dresser & McKee 5-1
JACUPERTIN\PHASE-1\SEC5. W PD
Cupertino Public Works Department
Phase I Environmental Site Assessment
Section 5
Site Reconnaissance and Interviews
the subject property are demolished, PG&E will remove the transformer.
5.4 Asbestos -Containing Materials
The main residence, studio, and the other subject property structures were constructed between
1900 and 1950, before the commercial use of asbestos -containing material (ACM). ACM are usually
found in structures built or renovated between the late 1950's and the early 1980's. However, it is
likely that during renovations and additions to the building friable and/or non -friable ACM was
used. The existence of friable and/or non -friable ACM is possible in the wallboard, roofing,
flooring, and chimney materials. During the site walkthrough, CDM made cursory visual
observations for ACM and observed no material suspected of containing friable ACM. However,
without conducting an asbestos survey, the presence and extent, if any, of ACM at the subject
property cannot be determined.
5.5 Air Quality
The site walkthrough did not reveal any particulate, gas, odor, or emission to the atmosphere from
the subject property that would violate any environmental regulation. No violations for the subject
property are on file with the Bay Area Air Quality Management District.
5.6 Storage Tanks
According to Mr. Stocklmeir, no USTs are located on the subject property. CDM did not discover
any indication that a UST exists or existed at the subject property.
One approximately 400 -gallon AST is located on the dirt on the east side of the driveway
Photograph 10). According to Mr. Stocklmeir, the AST contained propane used to heat the main
residence in the 1930s and 1940s. Use of the AST was discontinued in the mid -1940s or earlier when
natural gas became available. To Mr. Stocklmeir's knowledge, the AST is empty. Mr. Stocklmeir is
not aware of a permit for the AST or if the AST has been located at any other spot on the subject
property. The AST appeared to be in good condition with some light rust along the upper rim and
did not appear to be connected to any piping.
5.7 Water, Wastewater, and Storm Water
According to Mr. Stocklmeir, a groundwater well was installed at the subject property between 1900
to 1905 by his great grandfather. The well is located outside the eastern pump house located at the
southern end of the subject property. The main residence was connected to the city water supply in
the 1940s or earlier. Mr. Stocklmeir stated the well is abandoned and has not been used in over 50
years. The well has not been destroyed.
A one -compartment septic tank is located on the east side of the driveway, as shown in Figure 3-2
Photograph 11). The approximately 700 -gallon tank services the main residence and the studio
apartment. Only sanitary wastewater is generated at the subject property. Mr. Stocklmeir is
unaware of when the septic tank was installed, but stated it was there when his grandparents lived
at the subject property starting in 1949. To Mr. Stocklmeir's knowledge, no permit exists for the
septic tank.

Cupertino Public Works Department
Phase I Environmental Site Assessment
Section 5
Site Reconnaissance and Interviews
Mr. Stocklmeir stated occasional stoppages occur every one or two years in the septic tanks lines
running from the residences. The commercial service RotoRooter is contracted to clean the lines in
those instances. The tank is pumped out every two years by A -Able Septic Tank Company. Three
leach lines for the wastewater run underground into the orchard area: one north towards the pump
house, and the other two run northeast and east, respectively, into the orchard. Valves to control
the flow of the lines are located near the septic tank inside PVC piping. No distressed vegetation
was observed in the area of the leach field.
Mr. Stocklmeir stated that storm water at the subject property either percolates through the soil or
flows east to Stevens Creek. No pavement is present at the subject property except for small patio
areas. According to Mr. Stocklmeir, a storm water pipeline runs from the housing development
adjacent to the west side of the subject property across the orchard to Stevens Creek via an easement
across the subject property. The eastern end of the pipe is visible as a corrugated metal pipe in the
western side of the creek bed (Photograph 12).
5.8 Herbicides and Pesticides Use
Mr. Stocklmeir hired New View Landscape Service to perform yard work at the subject property
consisting of raking and collecting leaves and trimming the bushes. According to Mr. Stocklmeir,
no herbicides or pesticides are currently used at the subject property.
According to Mr. Stocklmeir, fertilizer has not been used on the orange trees in approximately 10
years. When the orchard produced walnuts for commercial use, the walnut trees were sprayed with
herbicides and pesticides. Mr. Stocklmeir stated that mixing or storing of chemicals did not occur at
the subject property. The commercial orchard business ended in the late 1960s. No signs of
distressed vegetation or stained soil were observed during the site walkthrough.
It is possible, although no evidence was found during this Phase I ESA, that the potential
mismanagement of pesticides (i.e., a spill during mixing or dilution and over application) from
historical uses associated with the orchard may have adversely impacted the subject property. In
general, pesticides have low vapor pressures, do not biodegrade, and adhere to soil extremely well.
Therefore, even though the property stopped serving as an orchard, pesticide residues may still be
present in the soil. Farmers began to use DDT as a pesticide in the 1940s. Usually, DDT does not
spread to more than a foot below ground surface (Hayes, 1975).
According to Toxicology of Pesticides, "residues of pesticides in soil are rarely important as a source
of direct exposure to people" (Hayes, 1975). The only orchard maintenance occurring at the subject
property is discing of the soil, which could significantly decrease the residual pesticides at the
subject property (Hayes, 1975). The potential for residual pesticides in the soil to adversely affect
human health is minimal. Major disturbance of the soil may increase potential for human exposure
to residual pesticide potentially present in the soil. In general, high concentrations of certain
pesticide compounds in soil can classify soil as hazardous waste.
5.9 Lead -Based Paint
Due to the age of the buildings on the subject property, it is likely that lead-based paints have been
used. During the site walkthrough, flaking paint and paint chips were observed on the window
sills of the shop and on the walls of the western pump house (Photographs 3 and 5). CDM observed
no paint chips on the soil at these areas. Based on the extent of flaking paint, the potential for soil in
contact with paint ships to have elevated levels of lead from the lead-based paint is minimal.

Conclusions and Recommendations
This Phase I ESA is based upon information researched and made available to CDM through May 5,
1999. Any subsequent information received by CDM which modifies the conclusions of this report
will be submitted to the City of Cupertino Public Works Department in later correspondence.
Based on the information provided to CDM and observations made during the walkthrough of the
subject property, no recognized environmental conditions at the subject property were discovered
during the performance of the Phase I ESA. No information was discovered that would suggest
that off-site properties had released contaminants that would results in environmental
contamination of the subject property.
However, due to the age of the structures at the subject property it is likely asbestos -containing
material (ACM) and lead-based paints were used during construction and any renovations. The
existence of friable and/or non -friable ACM is possible in the wallboard, roofing, flooring, and
chimney materials. During the site walkthrough, CDM made cursory visual observations for ACM
and observed no material suspected of containing friable ACM. Prior to any renovation or
demolition of the buildings at the subject property, CDM recommends a certified asbestos
consultant conduct an asbestos survey of the buildings.
During the site walkthrough, flaking paint and paint chips were observed on the window sills of the
shop building and on the wall of the western pump house. Based on the extent of flaking paint, the
potential for soil in contact with paint ships to have elevated levels of lead from the lead-based paint
is minimal.
In addition, the subject property served as a commercial orchard until the late 1960s. It is possible,
although no evidence was found during this Phase I ESA, that the potential mismanagement (i.e.,
spill during mixing or dilution and over application) of pesticides from uses associated with the
orchard may have adversely impacted the subject property. The potential for residual pesticides in
the soil to adversely affect human health is minimal. The orchard maintenance that occurs at the
subject property could reduce the residual pesticides in the soil. In general, high concentrations of
certain pesticide compounds in soil can classify soil as hazardous waste. Prior to any major
disturbance of the soil at the subject property, CDM recommends collecting soil samples to
determine the extent of impact, if any.
Finally, one abandoned well exists at the eastern pump house in the southwest section of the subject
property. If the well will no longer be used, CDM recommends properly destroying the well with
the approval of the Santa Clara Valley Water District.

EXECUTIVE SUMMARY
Surrounding Properties:
Elevations have been determined from the USGS 1 degree Digital Elevation Model and should be evaluated
on a relative (not an absolute) basis. Relative elevation information between sites of close proximity
should be field verified. EDR's definition of a site with an elevation equal to the subject property
includes a tolerance of -10 feet. Sites with an elevation equal to or higher than the subject property
have been differentiated below from sites with an elevation lower than the subject property (by more than
10 feet). Page numbers and map identification numbers refer to the EDR Radius Map report where detailed
data on individual sites can be reviewed.
Sites listed in bold italics are in multiple databases.
CAL -SITES: Formerly known as ASPIS, this database contains both known and potential hazardous
substance sites. The source is the California Department of Toxic Substance Control.
A review of the Cal -Sites list, as provided by EDR, has revealed that there is 1 Cal -Sites site
within approximately 1 mile of the subject property.

Dear Mr. Bobel:
This letter is to request your concurrence with this Department's
intention to issue a public notice and accept public comment
regarding closure of the Zilog, Inc. facility which was located
at 10640 Bubb Road, Cupertino, California. The Department has
determined that the Zilog facility was closed in a manner
consistent with Title 22, California Administrative Code, and
that said closure was certified by the facility operator and an
engineer duly registered to practice in the State of California.
Based on information available at this time, the Department of
Health has further determined that no contamination resultingfromZilog's activities remains at the site. There are, however,
small concentrations of residual contaminants of uncertain origin
in the soil.
The Department therefore is proposing to permit closure of the
Zilcg facility, with no requirement for Zilog to pursue
additional closure or post closure activities at this time.
Your attention to this matter is appreciated. If you have any
questions, please contact Mr. Daniel E. Murphy at (415) 540-2043.

P.O. Box 309
3000 Busch Road
Pleasanton, CA 94566
Dear Mr. Bouse:
Subject. Fuel Leak Investigation at Kaiser Cement, 24001 Stevens Creek Boulevard, Cupertino, CA
Per our February 26, 1999, telephone conversation, I am forwarding to you a copy of the Santa Clara
Valley Water District (District's) February 7, 1997, letter and additional information. The staff at
California Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB) closed the portion of this case that involves
gasoline tanks (Upper Service Station). The remaining source areas to be addressed are listed below and
documented in our enclosed letter. Please prepare and submit a work plan to define the extent of
contamination in the Lower Service Station and Emergency Generator areas.
TECHNICAL COMMENTS
1. There are five former source areas at this site:
Lower Service Station
Emergency Generator
Garage
Oil House
Upper Service Station
2. Lower Service Station Area
Prepare a work plan to define the extent of soil and groundwater pollution associated with four
removed 1,000 gallon diesel tanks. Following tank removal, reportedly floating product was
observed on water in the tank pit and excavated soils contained strong diesel fuel odors. Reportedly,
no samples were collected from this area and the excavation was backfilled.
Emergency Generator Area
Define the extent of soil and groundwater pollution associated with one removed 4,000 gallon diesel
tank. Following tank removal, reportedly the tank appeared undamaged with no apparent leaks, but
the associated connecting lines and plumbing showed obvious leakage. Excavated soils contained
diesel odors and the excavation contained product. No samples were collected and the excavation
was backfilled.
4. Garage and Oil House Areas
No further work is necessary.
Mr. Earl Bouse 2 March 2, 1999
Upper Service Station Area
No further work is necessary; The RWQCB granted closure for this area December 21, 1995.
However, if you are no long utilizing the groundwater monitoring wells installed in this area, you
should properly abandon them. Contact Mr, Dave Zozaya in the District's Well Services Unit,
408) 927-0710, extension 2650. It appears that three groundwater monitoring wells were installed
near the existing underground storage tanks.
6. Because closure has been granted for the only gasoline tanks at your site, it is not necessary to repeat
the analyses for fuel oxygenates in your next investigation. However, it will be necessary to analyze
soil and groundwater samples for the gasoline additive Methyl tert-Butyl Ether (MTBE), and to
report the analytical results in your data tables, as well as include the laboratory analytical results
for all samples analyzed If analytical results for samples yield positive results under method 8020,
we suggest you use confirmation analyses, with analytical method 8260 or comparable, to confirm
the presence of MTBE at your site.
A typical way of defining the extent of contamination near and in former source areas is to install
soil borings and to collect soil and groundwater samples for analysis, at depth intervals of 5 feet and
at significant lithologic breaks. In order to define the vertical extent of contamination, it is necessary
to collect samples until either: you reach groundwater and collect a grab groundwater sample for
analysis, or obtain non-detectable analytical results for petroleum hydrocarbon contamination to a
significant depth in the soil. In order to define the lateral extent of contamination, it is necessary to
install borings laterally from the source areas until analytical results for samples indicate significant
contaminant attenuation with distance from the source area.
REQUEST
Prepare a work plan to address comments 1 and 2 above, due no later than April 16, 1999.
This request is made pursuant to the Regional Water Quality Control Board's authority under
Section 13267 of the California Water Code.
If you have any questions, please call me at (408) 265-2607, extension 2639.

Instead of Requiring Modern Pollution Controls
Santa Clara County Conditions of Approval for Lehigh Cement
Removes Residents from the Oldest Home in Cupertino
In 2000, the Cupertino Historical Society acquired the oldest home in Cupertino, the historically-important 1881
Snyder Hammond House, with a caretaker (see page 4 for Snyder Hammond family history). A historical
organization taking over this home was welcome news: Cupertino Historical Society saved the last of the old
Cupertino area Victorian era homes from demolition by purchasing it from the Catholic Diocese of San Jose for
$1.00 (see page 5 for article). The sale of the home was included in the land sale package of the Oak Valley
housing development, adjacent to Rancho San Antonio. Following nearly two decades of ownership, the
Cupertino Historical Society has neither installed a plaque at the home nor featured a permanent story about it on
their website. On at least one occasion, the home’s caretaker gave a talk at one of their events.
Around 2006, the Permanente Quarry, owned by HeidelbergCement Group, Germany, began dumping mining
overburden near the historic Snyder Hammond House (see photo page 4) on top of the former headquarters of
Permanente Metals (later Kaiser Aluminum) where, in the past, employees would take their families to picnic on
weekends. Photos demonstrate that the company started by Henry J. Kaiser was very proud of its headquarters
(attached). The buildings were badly damaged during a suspicious fire on April 26, 1993.1 The mining overburden
formed a permanent artificial mountain of mining waste now known as the EMSA, the East Materials Storage
Area. This new mountain is visible when entering Rancho San Antonio Preserve and from Cupertino’s main
street, Stevens Creek Blvd. The EMSA has been the subject of lawsuits, including one between the Midpeninsula
Regional Open Space District and Santa Clara County. Among the Open Space District’s concerns, the County
had allowed construction of the EMSA, which now generates water pollution,2 without the benefit of planning.3
The Open Space District4 and Water Boards5 have since requested better selenium water pollution measures.
The December 2011 Lehigh Reclamation Plan described air quality problems from its Permanente Quarry.6 Since
the oldest home in Cupertino became the most impacted residence by air pollution, Lehigh expressed interest in
having the occupied historic home empty in order to continue running polluting equipment in lieu of installing
modern pollution controls. Because the Cupertino Historical Society had Lehigh Hanson personnel as its
members, this plan was feasible. Thus, the County Final Conditions of Approval (COA) provide either evidence
of Lehigh installing modern pollution equipment (COA 43, 44) or vacating the Cupertino home (COA 45).7 These
COAs have been continuously memorialized as recently as the 2018 Lehigh Permanente Quarry Reclamation Plan
Amendment Conditions of Approval Compliance Annual Report Information Package (see Annual Report page
12, footnote 2). The full text of the relevant 2012 Final COAs are on the following page.8

2012 Lehigh Reclamation Plan Amendment Final Conditions of Approval 43 – 45:
43. Within 90 days of final RPA approval, the Mine Operator shall submit to the County and BAAQMD a
comprehensive inventory of all RPA-related off-road construction equipment expected to be used
during any portion of the RPA period. The inventory shall include the horsepower rating, engine
production year, and projected hours of use or fuel throughout for each piece of equipment. The
inventory shall be updated and submitted annually to the Planning with the Annual Report, throughout
the duration of the RPA. (Implements Mitigation Measure 4.3-3a).
44. Within 90 days of final RPA approval, the Mine Operator shall provide a plan for approval by the
Planning Manager and BAAQMD demonstrating that off-road equipment to be used for Reclamation of
the EMSA would achieve an average 35 percent reduction in Diesel Particulate Matter (DPM) emissions
compared to the proposed fleet described in the ALG report (Ashworth Leininger Group, December 13,
2011) during RPA Phase I. The plan shall be updated and submitted annually to the Planning Manager,
with the Annual Report each year throughout the duration of the RPA. Options for reducing emissions
may include, but are not limited to:
a. Using newer model engines (e.g. engines that meet US EPA interim/final Tier 4 engine standards).
b. Use of Retrofit Emission Control Devices that consist of diesel oxidation catalysts, diesel particulate
filters, or similar retrofit equipment control technology verified by CARB
(www.arb.ca.gov/diesel/verdev/verdev.htm)
c. Use of low emissions diesel products or alternative fuels;
d. Use of alternative material handling options (e.g. conveyor system); or other options as may
become commercially available and verifiable. (Implements Mitigation Measure 4.3-3b).
45. In lieu of Condition No. 43 and No. 44 (Mitigation Measures 4.3-3a and 4.3-3b), the Mine Operator
may submit within 90 days of the RPA approval evidence establishing to the Planning Manager’s
satisfaction that there are legally binding restrictions precluding any occupancy of the caretaker’s
residence located at 2961 Stevens Creek Boulevard, Cupertino (APN 342-63-003) during the entirety of
Phase I of the Project. (Implements Mitigation Measure 4.3-3c).
COA #45 was selected and the Cupertino Historical Society removed the caretaker and his family from the
historically-significant 1881 Snyder Hammond house, the oldest residence in Cupertino. In late 2012, the County
received a copy of the lease demonstrating the home’s vacancy (attached, the author is presently unable to find the
link to it on the Santa Clara County website) and the San Jose Mercury News described the transaction as
bringing new life to one of Cupertino’s oldest homesteads (see article page 6). Note that both the COA and the
lease list the wrong street address, 2961 rather than 22961.
The City of Cupertino General Plan refers to the Snyder Hammond House on its Historic Resources Map and as
the second of thirteen Historic Site photographs with the address of 22961 Stevens Creek Blvd. Additionally, the
General Plan has three policies pertaining to historic sites, LU-6.1, LU-6.2, and LU-6.3. Policy LU-6.2 states:
"Projects on Historic Sites shall meet the Secretary of Interior Standards for Treatment of Historic Properties."9
These standards are described on the National Parks Services U.S. Department of the Interior web page:
nps.gov/tps/standards.htm.
Having a home unoccupied is never a good idea and the home’s vacancy enabled the subsequent demise of
Cupertino's Historic Site, removed an affordable home from Cupertino housing inventory, and exposed Cupertino
citizens to more pollution. The lease agreement stipulates that the tenant is required to take care of the property
but the tenant has allowed it to be vandalized. Finally, the Cupertino Historical Society has failed to maintain the
home under Cupertino General Plan Policies and other ordinances. The City of Cupertino should intervene.

History of the Snyder-Hammond House and Family
Home While Occuppied Mountain of Mining Waste Behind Home
In 1881, John Snyder (1828 – 1901), built this home on his ranch for his daughter Martha and her husband Dr. W.
H. Hammond. John Snyder purchased the ranch in 1861 and it originally had over 1200 acres. It was located 4
miles from Mountain View Station (in the area that we now know has Rancho San Antonio). Snyder moved west
in 1849 and accidentally discovered the Scott River and gold while searching for his lost ponies. In 1855 he
married Martha Kifer (John Kifer’s daughter, a name you might recognize from Kifer Road). John and Martha
had five children:
- Sarah Ann (who married William Foss);
- Arthur J. a Mountain View orchardist;
- John H.;
- Martha B (who married Dr. Hammond and lived in the house shown above. They had one daughter Muriel
who married Raymond Haynes); and
- Letitia (who married E. F. Kendall, a Los Altos orchardist, well known for being on the railroad line).
John Snyder’s 1862 grain crop was the first to be raised in the county and he did it without irrigation; he inspired
others to do the same. He also grew prunes and owned other properties.
John’s daughter Martha, also known as Mattie, was born at "Hillside," Permanente Creek, Mountain View.
Martha’s husband, Dr. W. H. Hammond graduated from medical school in 1879 and practiced medicine for a year
in Hawaii. Hammond had taught school until he had sufficient funds to attend medical school at the University of
the Pacific in San Francisco (later, the school later changed names to Cooper Medical College and eventually
became part of Stanford University). For two terms, he was County Physician for the county of Santa Clara. He
also had other business interests such as owning orchards and other real estate.

Partnership restores, saves Cupertino’s Snyder-Hammond house
Matthew Wilson| Bay Area News Group November 29, 2012 at 1:05 pm
New life has been given to one of Cupertino’s oldest homesteads. The Cupertino Historical Society and Lehigh
Southwest Cement have a long-term agreement to use the old Snyder-Hammond house as a storage location for
artifacts from the days when Henry Kaiser presided over cement manufacturing in the Cupertino foothills.
The historical society wrote in its latest edition of The Cornerstone newsletter that the house is Cupertino’s
oldest remaining farmhouse. The agreement between Lehigh Cement and the historical society began in mid-
September.
The house was purchased by the historical society from the Catholic Diocese of San Jose in 2002 for just $1 to
save it from being razed during the Oak Valley development in the northwest Cupertino foothills, according to
the newsletter. Since that time, the home was under contract with a caretaker and his family.
The home was becoming increasingly uninhabitable, and the historical society does not have the money to
upgrade the property and make repairs for public use, according to the newsletter. The society instead chose to
partner with Lehigh on the condition that the house only be used for storage of Kaiser historical artifacts.
“Lehigh and Hanson before us have always supported the historical society. We’ve always had a close
relationship,” said Sandra James, Lehigh’s community affairs director and a longtime community volunteer and
former mayor. “We needed a place to store our historical artifacts, and they have this wonderful building. The
possibility is here for a good partnership.”
As compensation, Lehigh donated funds that equate to approximately $1,100 a month for the next nine years.
The historical society will still be able to store some of its own items in the house and use it for special events.
There have also been tentative plans over the years to relocate the home if enough donations are gathered.
In 2009 and parts of 2010, the historical society’s mini-museum at the Quinlan Community Center included a
display featuring artifacts and historical accounts of Kaiser’s era at what is now Lehigh Cement. Many of the
artifacts from that display will be housed in the Snyder-Hammond house.
Lehigh Cement has plenty of regional history in its own right. Nearby Permanente Road has been there since the
late 1890s and mining at the site dates back to that era.
Cement production began just before World War II. The facility was owned by Hanson Permanente and Kaiser
Cement Corporation before becoming part of the Heidelberg Cement Group in 2007.

History of the Snyder-Hammond House and Family
Home While Occuppied Mountain of Mining Waste Behind Home
In 1881, John Snyder (1828 – 1901), built this home on his ranch for his daughter Martha and her husband Dr. W.
H. Hammond. John Snyder purchased the ranch in 1861 and it originally had over 1200 acres. It was located 4
miles from Mountain View Station (in the area that we now know has Rancho San Antonio). Snyder moved west
in 1849 and accidentally discovered the Scott River and gold while searching for his lost ponies. In 1855 he
married Martha Kifer (John Kifer’s daughter, a name you might recognize from Kifer Road). John and Martha
had five children:
- Sarah Ann (who married William Foss);
- Arthur J. a Mountain View orchardist;
- John H.;
- Martha B (who married Dr. Hammond and lived in the house shown above. They had one daughter Muriel
who married Raymond Haynes); and
- Letitia (who married E. F. Kendall, a Los Altos orchardist, well known for being on the railroad line).
John Snyder’s 1862 grain crop was the first to be raised in the county and he did it without irrigation; he inspired
others to do the same. He also grew prunes and owned other properties.
John’s daughter Martha, also known as Mattie, was born at "Hillside," Permanente Creek, Mountain View.
Martha’s husband, Dr. W. H. Hammond graduated from medical school in 1879 and practiced medicine for a year
in Hawaii. Hammond had taught school until he had sufficient funds to attend medical school at the University of
the Pacific in San Francisco (later, the school later changed names to Cooper Medical College and eventually
became part of Stanford University). For two terms, he was County Physician for the county of Santa Clara. He
also had other business interests such as owning orchards and other real estate.

Announcing the Rental of the Oldest Home in Cupertino to Lehigh (now the home is in disrepair)

Partnership restores, saves Cupertino’s Snyder-Hammond house
Matthew Wilson| Bay Area News Group November 29, 2012 at 1:05 pm
New life has been given to one of Cupertino’s oldest homesteads. The Cupertino Historical Society and Lehigh
Southwest Cement have a long-term agreement to use the old Snyder-Hammond house as a storage location for
artifacts from the days when Henry Kaiser presided over cement manufacturing in the Cupertino foothills.
The historical society wrote in its latest edition of The Cornerstone newsletter that the house is Cupertino’s
oldest remaining farmhouse. The agreement between Lehigh Cement and the historical society began in mid-
September.
The house was purchased by the historical society from the Catholic Diocese of San Jose in 2002 for just $1 to
save it from being razed during the Oak Valley development in the northwest Cupertino foothills, according to
the newsletter. Since that time, the home was under contract with a caretaker and his family.
The home was becoming increasingly uninhabitable, and the historical society does not have the money to
upgrade the property and make repairs for public use, according to the newsletter. The society instead chose to
partner with Lehigh on the condition that the house only be used for storage of Kaiser historical artifacts.
“Lehigh and Hanson before us have always supported the historical society. We’ve always had a close
relationship,” said Sandra James, Lehigh’s community affairs director and a longtime community volunteer and
former mayor. “We needed a place to store our historical artifacts, and they have this wonderful building. The
possibility is here for a good partnership.”
As compensation, Lehigh donated funds that equate to approximately $1,100 a month for the next nine years.
The historical society will still be able to store some of its own items in the house and use it for special events.
There have also been tentative plans over the years to relocate the home if enough donations are gathered.
In 2009 and parts of 2010, the historical society’s mini-museum at the Quinlan Community Center included a
display featuring artifacts and historical accounts of Kaiser’s era at what is now Lehigh Cement. Many of the
artifacts from that display will be housed in the Snyder-Hammond house.
Lehigh Cement has plenty of regional history in its own right. Nearby Permanente Road has been there since the
late 1890s and mining at the site dates back to that era.
Cement production began just before World War II. The facility was owned by Hanson Permanente and Kaiser
Cement Corporation before becoming part of the Heidelberg Cement Group in 2007.
WRT to McClellan Road Bridge, the slide should show ~$2.2M in City Funding until
other funding is found. We made the assumption that we would have more funding from
elsewhere with Jollyman Park and that did not happened and us taxpayers wound up
funding it. In the name of transparency, please for now have that $2.2M come from City
Funds.
There is a bridge on Stevens Creek Blvd that is in worse condition than the McClellan
Bridge near the Golf Course. This bridge was eligible for Federal Funds (where as the
McClellan Bridge was not). What is the status of that bridge?
REGARDING CITY-OWNED PROPERTIES
Please do know that you can’t tell from the photo that the Byrne property is on a very steep
slope. Right after the house and the 1-car garage is a steep hill that makes the property a
challenge to build on. Sadly the property has become blighted since the City purchased it.
Many of the beautiful plants and trees are gone.
We had a plan for the Torre Annex, please let’s work that plan! That will allow the City to
make seismic repairs to City Hall. This has been going on for way too long.
Regarding the Stocklmeir property, it was in beautiful condition when the City purchased it
and has fallen into disrepair. In the 2005 General Plan, it was protected as a Historic Site. At a
minimum, let’s bring the exterior of that property up to its previous condition. It is against the
General Plan to allow historic sites to fall into disrepair. It is tragic that the home of our first
City’s historian has been allowed to become degraded in this way. Please find attached an
assessment of the property when it was first purchased.
Separately, Cupertino’s most historic home, that was owned by the County’s physician, the
Sara Cody of his day, was leased by the historical society to Lehigh so that Lehigh could avoid
installing modern pollution equipment. That home has also fallen into disrepair. Attached are
documents that I have put together regarding the sad state of this property.

Dear Mayor Sheila and honorable council members,
I implore you to please REJECT and DO NOT APPROVE the Bollinger Road traffic study
and design work. (Agenda item 1 on 03/19/24 city council meeting). Please also DO NOT
approve any other bike lane spend at this time such as DeAnza, McClellan, Steven’s Creek
Blvd.
There are 70k+ residents in Cupertino and vast majority of them use autos to get around.
Please do NOT disrupt this critical East-west corridor connecting DeAnza to Lawrence and
beyond and vice versa. Please do NOT approve the study to explore elimination of one lane
each direction. Please REJECT agenda item 1.
At this time of budget deficit I beseech you to kindly prioritize any and all spend to maximize
the number of residents benefitted. How many bicyclists do you have compared to residents
using autos. How many residents drive on Bollinger compared to bicyclists. Why do you need
to eliminate lanes when you can encourage and identify alternate roads with less traffic for
sections of bike lane connectivity.
An inordinate amount of city funds have been spent on bike lane projects. You would think
public works capital projects are largely only bike lane projects. This project has never come
before city council before for agenda item discussion and public input at council. The very
first time it is on agenda it seeks funding approval for the study.
This project is even marked low priority by public works. Why does this make the cut if low
priority. Please REJECT this agenda item 1.
I understand that part of the funding is intended to be covered via grant money. I ask that you
kindly REJECT this and do not proceed with the Bollinger Rd project. We do not want the
grant money going towards causing massive inconvenience to residents. Please apply available
grants for pedestrian safety instead such as beacon activated pedestrian crossings, new
pedestrian crossings.
You can be sure that my family voters will be aware of this issue on November elections and
will be carefully watching how November election candidate Hung Wei will vote on this issue
as well as Kitty Moore assuming they are seeking public office for their roles again. We will
vote on this issue as well as other issues that demonstrate council members alignment with
common sense and average residents needs or their leaning towards small and niche groups
that may have valid needs but simply is not pragmatic in such cases to disrupt roads like
Bollinger.
While on the topic I also urge you to cancel the remaining spend on Steven’s Creek, DeAnza,
McClellan Rd bike lane spend. Enough has been spent on bike lanes. It’s time to spend on the
rest of us residents.
Thank you for keeping the average resident in mind and the maximum impact of every dollar
spent including grant fund dollars.
Hoping to see you vote to NOT APPROVE agenda item 1 or any bike lane project today at the
council meeting.
Thanks,
Santosh Rao

Respected Mayor Mohan, Vice-Mayor Fruen, and Councilmembers,
I am writing today to urge you to include the Bollinger Rd Safety Study in this year's CIP
projects list.
This project is one of the few safety improvement projects on the CIP list. There were two
fatalities and one serious injury on this road. It is critical that we complete the study and
explore possible designs for making the road safer for all residents. Eighty percent of the study
cost is paid for by a grant, so it's also a good fiscal decision for the city.
Thousands of students go to school using Bollinger to go to Hyde, Lynbrook, and Murdock-
Portal. Today, the vast majority of them drive because the road is not safe for students to bike
to school. There are so few pedestrian crossings and they are so far from each other that the
road is not pedestrian or transit friendly either. In some places, seniors and young families
can't safely cross the road because it is too wide.
Many of the residents who live on Bollinger struggle to even back out of their driveway safely
because of the fast moving cars. They fear for the safety of their children and pets if they
wander out unaccompanied.
It's one of the few east-west connectors in the city and it's been a big safety problem for years
for residents living on Bollinger, students, seniors, cyclists, pedestrians, and transit users.
I know some residents are writing in against the Bollinger Road Safety Study because they are
worried that the city will slow down the cars and cost the drivers a few more minutes. But this
CIP project does not fund any construction. That is not what you are voting on today. There
will be more opportunities for resident input when designs are being considered and when a
final design is brought in front of council. It is premature to kill the project now.
Please prioritize resident safety and vote to include the Bollinger Road Safety Study in this
year's CIP list.
Thank you for everything you do for this city.
Best regards,
Seema Lindskog

Dear City Council Members or to Whom it may concern,
I am writing to express my strong opposition to the proposed Bollinger Road
Corridor Design to shrink the car lane from 2 to 1.
We live in the Lynbrook High School district. Our kid goes to Cupertino
School District elementary school everyday. Bollinger Road is the closest
big road to our house. We drive on Bollinger everyday. But this proposed
Bollinger Road Corridor Design would greatly increase the traffic
congestion, and it would have a devastating impact on our community.
The Bollinger road is located in the heart of our community, connecting
many popular schools in our community, for example, Lynbrook High
School, Hyde Middle School, Miller Middle School, Dilworth Elementary
School and Murdock Elementary School. These schools serve a big
population of Cupertino and West San Jose residences. Every morning, I see
cars waiting in a long line on Bollinger road trying to get in and out of these
schools. Now I can use the second lane to go through the traffic, but if you
change the bollinger road to a single car lane, we have to stay in the single
car lane forever. And our kids will be late for school. We will be late for work!
Moreover, Cupertino City is currently short of funds for many good design
proposals, for example, for schools , libraries and parks. Please at least
delay the funds allocation to the Bollinger Road Corridor Design!
I urge you to vote against the Bollinger Road Corridor Design in today’s
meeting! It would be a mistake that we would regret for many years to
come. Please put my comments into the public record.
Sincerely,

Respected Mayor Mohan, Vice-Mayor Fruen, and Councilmembers,
I ask today that you support the Bollinger Road traffic study and design work.
The Bollinger Road Study is necessary to address the many safety issues on that Road, including two
deaths and many near-misses. It is a small amount to spend on an important topic which impacts the
safety of all our residents, many of whom are children going to school. Many of the residents on
Bollinger even struggle to get out of their own driveways safely because of the fast moving cars.
Some community members, many not from Cupertino, have raised fears that traffic flow for cars will
be affected. This CIP item will not reduce lanes, it only funds a traffic study and explores designs that
could improve resident safety. It does not fund any construction work on that street.
The traffic study and design work are completely funded by a grant except for the required 20%
matching funds. This is a great way to leverage our budget to meet our goals. Our budget should
reflect that we prioritize the safety of our residents, and this project does that.
Thank you for your work on behalf of Cupertino.

Dear council members,
Bollinger Road is a major conduit between De Anza and Lawrence Expressway. Removing 2 lanes could severely
impacting the traffic and creating major congestion during rush hours. The change would be very costly and difficult
to revert if the result seems to be unsatisfactory. It would be prudent and more cost effective if we selectively

City Council and Staff,
Please do not continue with any studies or projects related to the Bollinger Rd
Corridor RE-Design.
This is low priority item/project that has not at all benefited from public comments and
outreach.
I believe that the survey as well as the traffic study were done 'during Covid' which
we all should understand was not a good time to get useful data.
Any study performed in the past and particularly during a dramatic decrease of cars
on the roads due to pandemic, will be entirely inadequate.
In addition to that, a survey that is completed during the same pandemic period is not
useful for a project like this.
Top that with the fact that both Cupertino and San Jose are currently, and will
continue to, increase both full time resident AND daytime/commuter residents.
This will dramatically increase the number of automobiles, and potentially other
modes of transportation (bike, bus, etc). Any study performed in the past and
particularly during a dramatic decrease of cars on the roads due to pandemic, should
be considered very poor data.
Limiting Bollinger Rd. to one driving lane in each direction would risk creating a
situation where commuters/drivers will choose routes thru neighborhood streets to
avoid a very congested main artery that would basically become a neighborhood
street with far too many automobiles.
Both Lawrence Expy and DeAnza Blvd, and likely Miller Ave will be more congested
in the not so distant future and with Bollinger being one of the connecting, and well
used arteries, the result could very well be that these roadways suffer greatly in the
congestion index.
Bollinger is also a route that public safety vehicles use.... they need room to get
around traffic !!!
AND... we, as a city, have higher priorities and NOT enough money.
Thank you '

Dear Mayor Mohan,
My name is Suyash Ganu and I am a graduate of Cupertino High School and a former De
Anza College student. I grew up biking on Bollinger and taking VTA Bus 25 along the same
corridor. As a student, I had many close encounters with cars drifting too close to the bike lane
and taking unsafe right turns without checking for me in the blindspot. In addition, many
residents leave their trash cans in the bike lane making it incredibly dangerous. For this
reason, I want to encourage the City to support the Bollinger Road Design and Traffic
Analysis CIP item. The safety and health of our residents should be prioritized. Cupertino has
already had fatalities on not just Bollinger but also Tantau and Wolfe in the past few years. I
want my future children to grow up in a Cupertino where kids are safe to bike in. I absolutely
loved the protected bike sections on Stevens Creek near Cupertino High School and appreciate
the city for installing those. I still see a lot of traffic during school drop off which signals to
me that many parents do not feel bicycling is safe. It is imperative that we make biking safe
not only to reduce traffic but to also increase the health of our youth at a time when child
obesity is rising. A traffic study on Bollinger would be a sign that the Cupertino City
leadership is taking the safety of children into account. Making Bollinger safer would make it
easier for kids at Cupertino, Hyde, Sedgewick, Lynbrook, Miller, and even De Anza College
to get to school on time safely. Creating better infrastructure would also benefit our adult
population as well. Cupertino is required by the state government to build more housing.
Creating good bike instructure would be integral to reducing traffic in this scenario. I hope that
given the immense potential for improving Bollinger, you consider moving forward with
traffic study. Thank you for considering my input, and your work on behalf of Cupertino.
From,

Dear city council members, please postpone the city’s Bollinger Road Corridor project until you get more feedbacks
from the city’s residents.
As an Apple employee, parent of Cupertino school district student and resident close by (I am living in Dumas Dr,
close to Bollinger road), I strongly oppose the idea of converting the current double traffic lanes into the proposed
single-lane, for the following reasons:
1. The existing Bollinger design considered the heavy traffic needs of the nearby residents and city citizens. There
are only a few main east-west traffic corridors in this region, including Homestead, Stevens Creek, Bollinger and
Prospect, all of which are at least double traffic lanes with heavy commute needs. Changing Bollinger into single
lane will cause sever congestion which will adversely affect Cupertino residents and nearby neighborhoods (W. San
Jose area, Santa Clara, for example).
2. The existing Bollinger design already factored in the needs of cyclists with dedicated bicycle lane. There is no
need to extend the bicycle lane to try to increase cycling usage. I use Bollinger Road to commute to work place
everyday. There are very few cyclists on this road throughout the year. Please do take a few field trips to observe
this yourself.
3. During rush hours of the week (even in afternoon hours of weekends), I noticed heavy traffic on the road already,
from commuters to work to parents sending/picking up kids to and from schools. It is certainly a good idea to
promote ‘Green commute’ in our city, but please do so without sacrificing resident’s life quality by introducing lots
of inconvenience. In my opinion, it is also irresponsible to simply consider cyclists’ single-sided opinions without
doing an in-field investigation.
If you think this could be a highly controversial topic with heavy impact to our city and neighborhood, please do
allow more time to hold hearings in the city, collecting more polling letters to get extensive feedback, before making
the hasty decision.
Thank you!

Subject:Subject: Concerns about Converting Bollinger Road to a One-Way Street

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

Dear City Officials and Stakeholders,
I am writing to express my strong opposition to the proposed conversion of Bollinger Road to
a one-way street.
As a daily commuter on Bollinger Road, I am well aware of the traffic congestion during rush
hour. However, I believe that converting the road to a one-way street would not only fail to
solve the problem but would also exacerbate it.
Bollinger Road serves as a critical thoroughfare for many residents who commute to Lawrence
Expy. Reducing the road to a single lane would effectively halve its capacity, leading to
increased congestion and longer commute times.
Furthermore, I question whether the city has conducted any studies to assess the impact of
converting Bollinger Road to a one-way street. Is there any data to support the claim that this
change would actually improve traffic flow?
In addition, the city's financial situation is already strained. It is unwise to allocate scarce
resources to a project like this one, which would be a waste of taxpayer money and
inconvenience residents.
I have never heard of a case where a city intentionally narrowed a major roadway. Such a
move goes against the very notion of urban development and progress.
If the city truly wants to promote economic growth and prosperity, it should focus on the
following measures:
Attracting businesses and investments by creating a favorable business environment
Controlling housing costs to attract and retain talented professionals
Opening up school districts to attract young families
These are the types of initiatives that would foster sustainable growth and development for our
city, rather than self-defeating measures like converting Bollinger Road to a one-way street,
which would only alienate residents and hinder progress.
I urge the city to carefully reconsider this proposal and make a decision that is in the best
interests of all residents.
Thank you for your time and consideration.
Sincerely,
Tim

Hi there,
I know the city council will discuss the funds allocation to the Bollinger Road
Corridor tonight. My home is close to the Bollinger Road and my kids are in the
Hyde Middle School. The Bollinger Road is already very congested in the morning
every day. It takes me a lot of time to bring them to school. I don’t think city
council should spend money on the bike land along the Bollinger Road.
I hope you guys can delay the funds allocation to the Bollinger Road Corridor.
And please put my comments into the public record!
Thanks and best regards!

Dear City Council & Staff,
Please deprioritize the Bollinger Road corridor design project from the CIP work list.
Bollinger is a key artery going to multiple schools (Lynbrook, Eaton, Miller, Hyde to name a
few), the Cupertino Library, City Hall, a retail complex with multiple restaurants, parks, and
more.
Forcing 4-lane traffic into 2 lanes will exacerbate congestion in a key thoroughfare. Moreover,
there are potential housing developments planned along S De Anza that will further increase
the population of this area. Why would we constrict roads when they have high usage and are
likely to have even higher usage in the future?
Finally, the City continually expresses that it is in a budget deficit and must reduce city
services. The Bollinger project has already been classified as "Low" priority, but it was
elevated due to grant funding. However, this reprioritization does not take into account the fact
that the grant funding only covers the first, very small portion of the project (traffic
analysis/feasibility/design). The second portion is the more substantial cost: $4M funding over
5 years. Per the document, there is no grant funding for the construction portion. If we cannot
even afford to maintain pavement quality, how can we afford $4M for this project?
Many thanks,
Tracy

Respected Mayor Mohan, Vice-Mayor Fruen, and Councilmembers,
I ask today that you support the Bollinger Road traffic study and design work.
I live north of Bollinger off of Miller and use Bollinger on a regular basis. Much like Miller,
Bollinger is a through street where drivers go very quickly which makes crossing the street,
entering the flow of traffic, or riding a bike fairly risky. In the case of Bollinger, there have
been fatalities and apparently many near-misses.
For an 80% discount with the grant money, it seems like it would be a good idea to take a look
at how to improve safety, particularly at that curve just east of Blaney, that’s a scary little
stretch of road.
Thank you for your work on behalf of Cupertino.

I know you guys don't care but for people who live around Bollinger and commute to
work/school daily on Bollinger, making it one lane each direction will dramatically increase
traffic congestion. It won't ease it, it will only create more congestion. Moorpark was
converted to one lane with a bike lane and what has happened since? More traffic and hardly
any bikers using the lanes. You guys don't care bout the residents and only care about your
political careers!! Stop the funding of Bollinger road corridor design now. Come down to

Honorable councilmembers,
I just want to share my concern regarding the CIP project #1 in today's study session.
According to the staff report, the priority of Bollinger Road Corridor Design is Low.
However, the total cost is high ($4,000,000 or more in future). Do you believe it is appropriate
to start a low priority project right away while our city is facing financial difficulty. We are
sorry to see many city funded programs stopped because of the revenue decline. What's more,
we already have several other big CIP projects on-going. I hope you can consider to postpone
funding this project in today's city council meeting.
Please include my comments in public record. Thanks a lot!

Dear city council members, cc city clerk,
As a Cupertino resident/voter, I am writing to respectfully request you to delay the
funding decision on the Bollinger Road project.
Please put my comments into the public record.
I have the following concerns.
- The idea was brought up long time ago and there has been no sufficient public hearing and
thorough study on how it would impact many people's life
- Due to a recent change, Cupertino is running into budget issue and has to cut many public
services. Why this project is so urgent and high priority? I am a biker on that road too for the
past 10 years, although I did not ride every day. I probably meet <2 other bikers every time on
that route.
- The road is crucial for many families' (Cupertino, WSJ and even Campbell and Santa Clara)
commute, did you have a calculation on the # of passengers in cars/bus vs # of bikers on that
road?
- As a biker I think there are other more reasonable and preferred approaches such as
providing more biking/pedestrian friendly crossing signals, or find other smaller less-busy
roads to implement bike/pedestrian mixed use zone.
Thank you for considering my comments

Dear Cupertino City Council,
I'm writing the email to urge you to delay the fund allocation to the Bollinger Road
Corridor Design.
There are many schools around Bollinger road and it's already very congested during
rush hours. Reducing the current 4 lanes to 2 lanes will definitely make traffic worse.
As a resident in Cupertino/West San Jose area for 5 years and traveling on Bollinger
daily multiple times a day, I do not witness many biker using this road. In my opinion,
adding a bike lane on each side doesn't made sense. Not to mention project like this
will add burden to city budgets already under stress.

Respected Mayor Mohan, Vice-Mayor Fruen, and Councilmembers,
I ask today that you support the Bollinger Road traffic study and design work.
The Bollinger Road Study is necessary to address the many safety issues on that Road, including two deaths and
many near-misses. It is a small amount to spend on an important topic which impacts the safety of all our residents,
many of whom are children going to school. Many of the residents on Bollinger even struggle to get out of their own
driveways safely because of the fast moving cars.
Some community members, many not from Cupertino, have raised fears that traffic flow for cars will be affected.
This CIP item will not reduce lanes, it only funds a traffic study and explores designs that could improve resident
safety. It does not fund any construction work on that street.
The traffic study and design work are completely funded by a grant except for the required 20% matching funds.
This is a great way to leverage our budget to meet our goals. Our budget should reflect that we prioritize the safety
of our residents, and this project does that.
Thank you for your work on behalf of Cupertino.

Dear city council,
I am a resident living around Bollinger and Miller area. It is a shock to hear that the city is discussing
to change the traffic lane on Bollinger road between De Anza & Lawrence to single-lane. This is a
terrible proposal. I commute on this route every single day. The current traffic in this area is already
pretty bad during rush hour. The back up is really bad even with the current 2-lane condition. Can
not image the traffic congestion with this change. Very doubt that the person made this
unthoughtful proposal has any real experience.
Always heard city is tight on finance and there are so many thing city can do to benefit the residents.
Why spend money on this atrocious idea.

Hello there,
My name is Yuhong Sheng and I have been living in Cupertino as a citizen for more than 15
years.
I am so shocked to become aware of the proposed plan to reduce Bolliger Road to one lane in
each direction, and I am writing to express my strong opposition to this idea.
Bolliger Road is a vital thoroughfare in our community, particularly given its proximity to
several schools. Implementing this change would undoubtedly exacerbate traffic congestion,

modification poses significant risks to both motorists and cyclists alike.
I urge you to reconsider this plan and halt any further progress on it. Preserving the current

Please put my comments into the public record.
Thank you for your attention to this matter.
