Helps prevent water from entering cracks and degrading subsurface structure. Fogseal Light application of emulsified oil. Purpose is to keep surface sealed and lock in fine aggregates that tend to loosen as a result of environmental factors. Slurry Seal This work consists of applying a mixture of emulsified oil, a graded aggregate, water, and additives to the pavement surface. Slurry seals are used for sealing aged and worn pavements, filling minor cracks, restoring skid resistance and restoring aesthetic appeal. This application serves to protect and preserve the pavement surface and extend its useful life. Cape Seal This work is the combination of two sealing and rehabilitation methods, chip seal and slurry seal. First a chip seal is applied, which is a hot asphalt spray binder with a single size aggregate mixed into it. It is then followed within a few days by a slurry seal. While more expensive, this combination method provides an additional measure of pavement surface durability and has more restorative impact on the pavement than a straight slurry seal. The only downside is that in the period between the chip seal and the slurry seal, sometimes the small aggregate may become loose and it create a nuisance for drivers. Rubber Cape Seal Similar to cape seal in appearance, but with increase performance. Hot asphalt spray binder is combined with recycled rubber at a high application rate. Single size aggregate is oil coated. Product remains flexible over time and tends to have less loose aggregate. Thin Maintenance After cracks and potholes in the road surface are sealed or filled, and Overlay (TMO) a tack coat of binding asphalt emulsion is applied, a thin overlay (typically up to 1.5”) of asphalt pavement is placed on the street surface. This treatment can extend the useful life of a street section that is still structurally sound by several years. In terms of extending the time until a pavement needs structural rehabilitation, this treatment is more effective than a cape seal. Pavement Overlay An overlay consists of placing an additional conventional or rubber asphalt pavement layer (generally 2” to 3”) on top of the existing street surface.

Description This is the first of two required public hearings regarding use of 2013-14 CDBG funds, Human Service grants, and the FY 2013 Annual Action Plan. Discussion CDBG Program This is the second of a two year funding cycle. Agencies in good standing will receive a one-page contract amendment for the next fiscal year. The City of Cupertino is still obligated to have two hearings each year to review funding and to review the Annual Plan. The City of Cupertino is expecting to receive a CDBG entitlement of approximately $310,000 for fiscal year 2013-14, plus a reallocation of $14,730 in projected program income from rehabilitation loan payoffs for a total of $324,730. Since the federal budget has not been approved, this entitlement may be reduced or increased prior to the July allocations. A detailed discussion is provided later in this report. This is Cupertino’s eleventh year as an entitlement jurisdiction receiving the CDBG grant directly from HUD. HUD regulations require that projects selected for funding benefit very low and low-income households, eliminate a blighted area, or address an urgent (emergency) community need. In addition, only certain types of activities qualify under the CDBG regulations. Examples of eligible activities are: Removal of barriers to the handicapped Property acquisition for affordable housing Public improvements Rehabilitation of affordable units Public service activities Affordable housing developments Of the $324,730 (entitlement plus program income), only 20%, or $64,946, may be used for administration of the program and fair housing services and 15%, or $48,709, may be used to fund public service activities. Public service activities must benefit very low and low-income households and include activities such as childcare, placement services, senior legal services, etc. The remainder of the grant ($211,075) can only be used for activities such as the purchase of land for affordable housing, rehabilitation of qualifying units, construction of affordable units and public improvements in low and very-low income neighborhoods. Attachment B provides a summary of the funding allocations. 97 April 5, 2011 Page 2 of 4 Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds, Human Service grants, and FY 2013 Annual Action Plan As mentioned earlier, this is the second year of the two-year public service funding cycle. In February 2008, the City Council voted to move to a two-year funding cycle to reduce the length of public hearings and reduce the amount of time non-profit agencies spend preparing applications for funding. Although the City Council made recommendations for funding public service agencies and human service grant funding last year, annual public hearings are required by HUD to review the Annual Plan and finalize the allocations. Public service and human service agencies were not required to complete a funding application or make presentations at hearings this year since this is the second year of a two-year cycle. Also, instead of staff preparing a new agreement for next year’s funding, a one-page amendment to last year’s agreement will be presented to each agency with the amended dates and dollar amounts. This process saves significant staff time for both the City and each non-profit agency. Request for Proposals: This is Cupertino’s third funding cycle using an on-line Request for Proposal (RFP) and application process. Staff placed a public notice in the local paper notifying potential applicants of the funding availability and directing the agencies to the City website where they received instructions on how to access the www.citydataservices.com website. Cupertino Housing Commission: On May 18, 2010, the City Council approved a revised Citizen Participation Plan as part of its 2010- 2015 Consolidated Plan. Prior to expending CDBG dollars, the City is required to have a Citizen Participation Plan, Consolidated Plan and an Annual Plan in place. As part of the revised Citizen Participation Plan, the City declared that the Cupertino Housing Commission would serve as the advisory body on CDBG matters. The Housing Commission’s responsibility is to make recommendations on policy, evaluate proposals received and make funding recommendations to the City Council. On March 8, 2012, the Housing Commission met and conducted a public hearing on the FY 2012-13 CDBG and Human Service funding allocations. The recommendations from the Housing Commission are listed below: CDBG Public Service Grants: The public service portion of the CDBG entitlement is limited to 15% of the entire entitlement plus projected program income. As mentioned earlier, this is the second year of a two year funding cycle. All public service and human service grants will be renewed for the same amount as allocated last year. If the federal entitlement should decrease, all public service agency grants will experience a pro rata decrease in funding. These agencies will receive a one-page amendment to last year’s agreement. CDBG Construction/Acquisition/Rehabilitation: Unlike the funding for public service and administrative activities, the percentage of funding used for capital improvements, construction, acquisition and rehabilitation is not limited to a specific percentage of the total funding.It encompasses the largest percentage of the CDBG entitlement. 98 April 5, 2011 Page 3 of 4 Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds, Human Service grants, and FY 2013 Annual Action Plan Rebuilding Together Silicon Valley submitted a request for $65,000 to continue its program of making minor home repairs for low and very low income Cupertino homeowners. The allocation would allow the agency to serve 5-8 eligible Cupertino households. This grant is expected to be renewed for the same amount as allocated last year. If the CDBG entitlement for FY 2013-14 is reduced with the new federal budget, the recommendation is to supplement the balance of the funds with the City’s Affordable Housing Fund (funded by Housing Mitigation fees). General Fund Allocation for Human Service Grants: Every year the City Council allocates approximately $40,000 from the General Fund to human service agencies. Formal agreements and monitoring are required for this program, but the requirements are less stringent than for federal funding. The Housing Commission reviews the allocations at the same time as the CDBG allocations and makes recommendations to the City Council. The Human Service Grant allocations are on a two-year funding cycle similar to the CDBG public service grant cycle. As with the CDBG public service grants the agencies will receive the same amount as approved last fiscal year. If the Council reduces the funding for Human Service Grants as part of the FY 2013-14 budget, each agency’s funding would be reduced proportionately. These agencies will also receive a one-page amendment to last year’s agreement. Affordable Housing Fund: Staff also proposes a $100,000 allocation to West Valley Community Services from the Affordable Housing Fund for administration and monitoring of the Below Market Rate (BMR) Program units. The Affordable Housing Fund receives its revenue from the payment of housing mitigation fees from office, commercial and industrial developments. FY 2013-14 Annual Action Plan: Federal regulations require that each entitlement jurisdiction prepare an Annual Action Plan and th submit the plan to the regional HUD office no later than May 15 of each year. The Annual Action Plan is a one-year plan which describes the eligible programs, projects and activities to be undertaken with funds expected during the program year (Fiscal Year 2013-2014) and its relationship to the priority housing, homeless and community development needs outlined in the approved Consolidated Plan. Furthermore, Federal regulations require the plan be made available for 30 days for public review and comment. The FY 2013-2014 Annual Action Plan (Attachment A) was released for public review on March 22, 2013 for the 30-day review period. A notice was placed in the local paper informing the public of its availability. On May 7, 2013, the City Council will hold a final public hearing to approve the Annual Action Plan for submittal to HUD. Fiscal Impact The City of Cupertino is expecting to receive $310,000 for fiscal year 2011-12, plus a reallocation of $14,730 in projected program income from rehabilitation loan payoffs for a total of $314,730. Since Congress has not approved the 2013 Federal budget, any decrease in the City’s entitlement will be reflected in a proportional decrease to all public service agencies. The Affordable Housing Fund receives revenue from any BMR fees paid by developers of residential, office, commercial, or hotel. These fees are accumulated and used for the creation of new affordable housing units either through new construction or substantial rehabilitation. Currently, the fund has 99 April 5, 2011 Page 4 of 4 Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds, Human Service grants, and FY 2013 Annual Action Plan approximately $600,000 available for allocation. Per the recommendation, $100,000 is proposed to be set-aside for the WVCS administration of the BMR program, leaving a balance of $500,000. _____________________________________ Prepared by: Vera Gil, Senior Planner Reviewed by: Aarti Shrivastava, Director of Community Development Approved for Submission by: David Brandt, City Manager Attachments: Attachment A: Model Resolution Attachment B: Fiscal Year 2013-14 Annual Action Plan Attachment C: Summary of Funding Allocations 100 RESOLUTION NO. 13- A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF CUPERTINO ADOPTING THE 2013-14ANNUAL ACTION PLAN AND THE USE OF ELEVENTHPROGRAM YEAR (2013-14) COMMUNITY DEVELOPMENT BLOCK GRANT (CDBG) FUNDS AND HUMAN SERVICE GRANTS WHEREAS, the Housing and Community Development Act of 1974 provides that funds be made available for the Community Development Block Grant program and Human Services Grants; and WHEREAS, the City of Cupertino wishes to apply for funds as an Entitlement Jurisdiction under said Act; and WHEREAS, the City of Cupertino understands that it shall receiveapproximately$310,000in CDBG funds; and WHEREAS, the City of Cupertino is required to submit an Annual Plan prior to being allowed to expend said funds; NOW, THEREFOREBE IT RESOLVED that the City of Cupertino hereby certifies that the projects being proposed for funding meet the certifications outlined in Section 570.303 of the Community Development Block Grant Administrative Regulations; and BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the City of Cupertino hereby approves the 2013-14Annual Plan and the use of tenthprogram year (2013-14) Community Development Block Grant (CDBG) funds and Human Service Grants; and BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the public service grant and human service grant allocations will be decreased/increased based on final budget allocations.

Foothill Blvd Foothill Live-Work Study Session March 26, 2013 BACKGROUND: Existing Site and Surroundings The proposal site is located at the southwest corner of Foothill Boulevard and Silver Oak Way, and is surrounded by higher density residential (residential clusters and duplexes) and quasi-public uses. To the west of the site are residential duplexes; to the east and across Foothill Boulevard is the Sunnyview Retirement Community; to the north and across Silver Oak Way are residential duplexes; and to the south Site Aerial are residential duplexes. The site currently contains an abandoned 1,608 square foot automobile service station with a fueling canopy, which was previously occupied by Foothill Auto Service and Detail. The site was originally developed in 1971, and has been historically used for automobile service, fueling, and convenience purposes. The site topography slopes up towards the south and west side of the property and slopes down from Silver Oak Way along the north side of the . DISCUSSION: Proposal Concepts The proposal concept consists the following: Demolish the existing automobile service station Construct six (6) detached, small-lot, single-family residences Five (5) live-work units with detached workspaces are included within the six (6) residences Associated site improvements (See Attachment 1 for the preliminary plan set). The five (5) live-work units are proposed along the Foothill Boulevard frontage, and contain commercial studio/One other residential unit without a workspace is situated along the Silver Oak Way frontage to help transition the project to the residential neighborhood to the north and west. Live-work developments allow residents to operate small neighborhood-serving businesses in or near the buildings they live, which may reduce commuter-traffic impacts, reduce or eliminate 191 10121 N. Foothill Blvd Foothill Live-Work Study Session March 26, 2013 child care expenses for people with young families, and provides creative business ventures with greatly reduced startup costs. The intensity of the live-work workspaces is expected to be similar to home occupation businesses (Chapter 19.120) with additional allowance for neighborhood-serving commercial uses that can operate at a lower intensity. Land Use & Zoning The project site currently has a General Plan land use designation of Commercial/Residential with a specific zoning designation of P(CG) Planned Development General Commercial. The current zoning designation allows any permitted general commercial or retail use as part of the General Commercial Ordinance (Section 19.60) to operate on the site. In order to introduce residential uses to the site, the property must be rezoned to Planned Development General Commercial and Residential. General Plan Housing Element. However, the City will be able to cla provided on this site as part of our current Housing Element. A new commercial project may be desirable to serve the area and provide the City with the potential of sales tax revenue. Properties at key intersections in the City are zoned commercial to provide essential commercial neighborhood-serving uses in proximity to neighboring residential areas. Examples along Foothill Boulevard are at the oad and Stevens Creek Boulevard. Keeping these provides essential ne-serving commercial/professional office uses for neighboring residential is further away from the intersection and Stevens Creek Boulevars separated from the commercial uses by a residential development. The Commission may want to comment on whether a live-work project (residential with limited commercial uses) in this location is desirable to the extent thaf providing neighborhood-serving uses while serving as a transition to the residential ar west, or whether maintaining a more standard commercial use is p Mixed-Use Options There are generally two types of commercial/residential mixed-use formats. A vertical mixed- use format is where residential is stacked on top of commercial (e.g., Travign Metropolitan) and a horizontal mixed-use format is where the residential is located behind the commercial part of the project either attached or detached (e.g., the recently approved Biltmore mixed-use project along Stevens Creek Boulevard). Typically the vertical mixed-use format is appropriate in more urban areas, at or near intersections of maj allowing greater building and/or parking design efficiency over a smaller area. Vertical mixed- use projects would typically appear more urban. The applicant is proposing a horizontal live-work format with the workspaces in the front along Foothill Boulevard and residential dwellings in the back. This format may create a better 192 10121 N. Foothill Blvd Foothill Live-Work Study Session March 26, 2013 transition on the site by providing a commercial frontage along providing a harmonious transition/buffer to the residential comp residential areas to the south and west of the property. In addition, the propo is consistent with the -32 (Attachment 2) which discourages exclusive general commercial uses and encourages developments thtified commercial area (such as the proposal site) to include a neighbo along the street with storefronts and residential uses. The Commission may want to provide further feedback on this proposed commercial/residential format for this site. Density The proposed density of 6.9 dwelling units per gross acre is wit gross acre allowed by General Plan Policy 2-32. The proposed density is also comparable and in most cases, less dense than the neighborhood context on the west side of Foothill Boulevard and north of Stevens Creek.

Foothill Blvd Foothill Live-Work Study Session March 26, 2013 Live-Work Concept The Municipal Code allows home occupations in residential zones subject to specific requirements. The Code does not, however, co developments designed specifically for live/work uses. The City would have the authority, assuming the applicant pursues the proposal as a Planned Develop establish specific standards and regulations for permitted and conditional uses. Copies of the ation standards (Attachment 3) and sample live/work regulations cities (Attachment 4) are attached to this report, and the Commi feedback on whether specific standards and regulations for the pe desirable. The Astoria townhomes on Imperial Avenue between Lomita and Gran approved by the City in 2001 for 13 live-work units along the street frontage. The allowed uses in the workspaces were neighborhood commercial uses such as persnal services and neighborhood offices. The approved parking ratio was 3.17 spaces Neighborhood Compatibility The applicant stated that the proposal will be designed to be co with the surrounding neighborhood. The exterior elevation exhibits (Attachment 1) show that the proposed two-story height of the residences would generally be about the same the surrounding one-story duplex residences since the building pad area is lower in than the duplex residences. General Plan Policy 2-32 allows one or two story buildings on this site, to be determined on a case-by-case basis. The proposed residences are designed in a modern architectural t to mimic the natural features of the local foothills. The detached workspaces are designed in the same theme of the residences with wide storefront bays and pedes street. The proposed siting and roof pitches of the residences minimize adjoining residences. prior to and during the formal review process if an application is sub. There are no required setbacks since this is a planned developme-property. The proposal includes a 15-foot setback along the Foothill Boulevard property line; an 11.5-foot setback along the Silver Oak Way (street side) property line; a -foot setback along the west side property line; and a 10-foot setback along the south side property line. The proposed setbacks generally appear to respect patterns in the existing ar to provide further feedback on compatibility issues. 194 10121 N.

A. The purpose of this chapter is to permit and regulate the conduct of home occupations as an accessory use in a residence, whether owner or renter occupied, and to ensure that such home occupations are compatible with the neighborhoods in which they are located. The intent is to protect residential areas from adverse effects of activities associated with home occupations, while allowing residents of the community to use their homes as a workplace and a source of livelihood under certain conditions. B. The City acknowledges that changes in technology and composition of the work force, among other factors, have contributed to a growing interest on the part of Cupertino citizens to live and work in their homes. The City also finds that home business enterprises can help reduce commuter-traffic impacts, reduce or eliminate child care expenses for people with young families, and provide the opportunity to test creative business ventures with greatly reduced startup costs. (Ord. 2085, § 2 (part), 2011; Ord. 1601, Exh. A (part), 1992) 19.120.020 General Requirements. A. Home occupations conducted in accordance with the provisions of this chapter shall be permitted in residential zones, and in other areas where residential use is allowed, provided that the occupation is clearly incidental and secondary to the use of the dwelling for residential purposes, and does not change the residential character thereof; and provided that such occupation is not detrimental to the health, safety, public welfare and property values in the neighborhood. 220 B. Authorization to establish a home occupation shall be evidenced by payment of a business tax and the issuance of a City of Cupertino business license tax certificate.All home occupations shall be subject to all provisions of the Cupertino Municipal Code regulating the issuance of business licenses.
