(Re-noticed from January 21, 2015). Recommended Action Conduct study session for the Stevens Creek Boulevard to McClellan Road Creek Corridor Master Plan and recommend alternatives to proceed with an Environmental Impact Analysis. Description The City launched a master planning project to look at the 65 public acres from Stevens Creek Boulevard to McClellan Road in Spring 2014 and hired MIG, a landscape architecture and public engagement firm, to lead the project. The Master Plan includes the areas of McClellan Ranch Preserve, McClellan Ranch West, Blackberry Farm Park, Blackberry Farm Golf Course, Stocklmeir Ranch, the Stevens Creek Trail and associated lands. The master plan does not address the four cities coordinated Stevens Creek Trail Feasibility Study. Discussion There have been several master planning/visioning projects throughout the years on various portions of this property starting with the 1993 McClellan Master Plan (MP) and concluding with the 2012 McClellan Ranch MP update. We are currently looking at this project in its entirety due to our changing demographics over the past 15 years, the recent acquisition of the residential property at 22050 Stevens Creek Blvd., and the needs of our aging infrastructure within the corridor. These include, but are not limited to, refurbishment of a 62 year old golf course and its failing irrigation system, aging pool equipment, barn stabilization needs, conditions of the Blue Pheasant, Simms and Stocklmeir buildings, and park access conditions. Among the goals of the master plan are:  Enhance Riparian habitat throughout the corridor 9  Provide for appropriate year-round park-related programming and uses in the corridor;  Restore buildings, land and infrastructure to protect the integrity of the assets;  Improve ingress/egress to the park;  Meet community needs given our changing demographics;  Enhance sustainability of our golf course property, and;  Invest our funds wisely while accommodating community goals. We are committed to creating a plan that aligns with local needs, preferences and priorities. As community input is integral to each phase of the SCC Master Plan, we have reached out to our community through 4 intercept events, focus group and stakeholder interviews, online questionnaires, two community events, social media notifications, a citywide mailing, and information on our website and in the Scene. MIG was tasked with proposing three alternatives for Council consideration. They are presented as: 1. Alternative A (highest intensity), 2. Alternative B (medium intensity), including a preferred alternative for the golf course from the National Golf Foundation (NGF), and 3. Alternative C (lowest intensity) – including a second alternative for the golf course from the NGF. All three alternatives were presented in detail at the Council study session on December 16, 2014. Due to time constraints, the Council received public testimony but deferred deliberation. On January 8, 2015, the Parks and Recreation Commission discussed the project and their recommendations are denoted in Attachment J. In addition, staff and Commission subcommittee met with representatives from the Santa Clara Valley Audubon Society and Acterra. These stakeholders supported a plan that is a modified version of Option C. The primary modifications include:  No new bridge from McClellan Ranch West to McClellan Ranch Preserve  No seasonal bridge to, nor trails within the “peninsula”  Reduce and minimize new trails: no new trails within McClellan Ranch meadow nor along creek bank at golf course  Avoid adding golf amenities at 22050 Stevens Creek Blvd. (i.e. residential parcel next to golf course that is now city-owned). Additional input included:  New bridge to Stocklmeir site, if needed: locate to minimize impacts to trees, habitat and wildlife; place it close to Stevens Creek Blvd. bridge 10  If golf course is reduced in size, request that freed up space be restored to habitat. Expand the greenbelt/restoration zone along the creek bank as a priority. If the golf course parking lot is expanded, then widen the creek side greenbelt/restoration zone for habitat  Blackberry Farm pool complex: keep pool modifications and improvements within existing footprint. MIG and staff will need direction from the Council as to the preferred alternative for purposes of impact evaluation in order to proceed with the Environmental Impact Analysis. The entire process, along with all associated reports, is estimated to take approximately 9 months to complete. The final SCC Master Plan and Environmental Impact Report are anticipated to be brought to Council in October 2015 for approval. Fiscal Impact No impact will result from this study session. ____________________________________ Prepared by: Carol A.

Following selection of a preferred alternative, the planning team will further refine these planning level estimates in tandem with the refinement and development of Master Plan recommendations and the CEQA document. Capital Costs Capital costs represent planning level budgetary estimates for construction. These costs are in 2014 dollars. These costs are comparative only, and do not include other City and project-related costs. No phasing or cost escalation factors are included. All three options include additional restoration of the creek and riparian areas. Operations Costs Operations costs are the additional costs per year (above current operations costs) for operations for additional staff or additional maintenance workload, also in 2014 dollars.

NationalGolfFoundationConsulting,Inc.(“NGFConsulting”or“NGF”)wasretainedbytheCity ofCupertino(“City”)topresentpotentiallyviableoptionsregardingtheCity’sDonBrownGolf

ThisNGFreportdetailsourreviewoftheBlackberryFarmGolfCourse,including: Thephysicalconditionofthegolfcourseandkeyinfrastructure OptionsforimprovingthegolfcoursewithintheoverallStevensCreekRestoration Plan Analysisofoveralloperationsandrecentfinancialperformance ThemarketenvironmentinwhichBFGCoperates Potentialalternativeoperatingstructures ProjectedfinancialperformanceoftheBlackberryFarmGCunderseveralscenarios Summaryfindingsandrecommendations WeexpecttheresultsofthisNGFstudytobeusedbytheCityasaguideforthefutureofthe golfcourse,andtohelpconveytointerestedparties(e.g.,residentsofCupertino,CityCouncil, etc.)thattheCitywilloperatethegolffacilityinanefficientmanner,andidentifyhowmuchCity economicsupportmayberequiredgoingforward. SUMMARYSTATEMENT BlackberryFarmGolfCourseisavaluablecommunityassetfortheCityofCupertinothathas thepotentialtoappealtoawidevarietyofgolfers.However,thegolffacilityinitspresent conditionisnot“setupforsuccess”and,NGFbelieves,doesnotaccuratelyreflectthecaliberof acitythathasastellarreputationnationallyforitsstrongeconomyandhighqualityoflife. Thepoorconditionofthegolfcourse,resultingfromanaginginfrastructureandadeferralof capitalimprovementsovertheyears,hasmagnifiedtheeffectsoffactorssuchadeclininggolf marketandanagingclientele,resultinginsignificantfinancialdistressfortheGolfFund.Total 29 NationalGolfFoundationConsulting,Inc.–ReviewofBlackberryFarmGolfCourse,Cupertino,CA–2 roundsplayedatBFGChaveplummetedoverthelastsixfiscalyears,decliningbyabout50% from49,194inFY09to24,594inFY14.Aswouldbeexpected,totalgreenfeerevenues, whichcomprisethevastmajorityoftotalfacilityrevenues,havealsofallensharplyoverthattime frame,frommorethan$623,000tounder$291,000,adeclineof53.4%.(Thesefiguresdonot includeconcessionpayments,whichtotaledabout$4,800inFY14). BasedonourreviewoftheBFGCoperationandthelocal/regionalgolfmarket,webelievethat managementisactiveintryingtoincreaseactivitybutisburdenedbytheconstraintspresented bythedeterioratinggolfcourse,andtherelativelylimitedconstituencyofalternativelengthgolf courses.BlackberryFarmGolfCourseinitscurrentstatesuffersfromanaginginfrastructure andmanyotherdeficienciesthatconstrainitsabilitytooperateefficientlyandgainsufficient roundsactivitytomakeitfinanciallyself-sustaining.Keydeficienciesinclude: Lackofteeflexibility(havingmoreyardagesfromwhichplayerscanopttoplayfrom) Poorturfconditions Greens(toosmallandlackquality) Treemanagement(treehealthandover-shadingofturfareas) Irrigationsystem(agingandinefficient) Watersourceandcost(frompotabletowellwater) Tightholecorridors(especiallyatNos.1and9) Lackofpracticeandnewplayerdevelopmentamenities Agingclubhouse(separated,non-integratedusesofgolfandrestaurant) LackofADAcompliance(pathsandaccess) ThisreportprovidesaroadmapthatNGFbelieveswillgreatlyimproveBFGC’spotentialto increasemarketabilityandstrengthenitsfinancialposition.However,itisquitepossiblethat marketfactorswillprecludethegolfcoursefrombreakingevenfinancially,evenafter recommendedfacilityandoperationalimprovementsareimplemented.Ifthatisthecase,we recommendtheCityconsiderthepublicpolicyimplicationsoffoldingthegolfcourseintothe GeneralFundandtreatingitlikethecommunityamenitythatitis–anactionthatweareseeing increasinglyinthemunicipalgolfworld.

ConstructiondurationforbothOptions‘A’and‘B’isestimatedtoextendonefullyear,ideally fromMarchtoMarchofthefollowingcalendaryear.Constructiontimemaybeacceleratedby addingcosttotheprojectandfullysoddingturf(in-play)areas.NGFConsultingrecommends furtherstudytodeterminethebenefitsofanacceleratedscheduleandwhethermorecostwould resultinlessrevenuelossduringdowntime.Somegrow-incostshavebeenassumedinthe probablecostestimate,butitislikelythatadditionalcostsmayberequired.Thisbecomesa 33 NationalGolfFoundationConsulting,Inc.–ReviewofBlackberryFarmGolfCourse,Cupertino,CA–6 matterofhowmuchgrow-inresponsibilityisassignedtothegolfcontractorvs.theCity’sgolf maintenancecontractor. Considerations Whenweighingtherelativemeritsofthetwoconceptualplans,NGFtookaccountofsomeof thefollowingkeyconsiderations. RevenueEnhancements AreaswhereNGFseesapotentialtoenhancerevenueinclude: NewPracticeAreas(toattractmoreuseandintroducenewplayerstogolf) ProvideTopQuality(greenssurfaces,turfconditions,etc.) Integratefoodandbeveragetogolfuses,andopenthesetopark-goers IntegrateFootGolfoverlaystobringnon-golferstothefacility CostEfficiencies AreaswhereNGFseesapotentialtoreduceorreprioritizecostsassociatedwiththegolf facilitiesinclude: ReduceManagedTurfFootprint(tosaveonwatercostandfocusmaintenance effort) WaterSourceConversion(tolowerwatercost) ReplaceAgingInfrastructure(toreduceannualcapitalcostsonemergencyrepairs) BalanceofLandUse InstudyinganddevelopingalternativesfortheCity,wehaveweighedthevalueofoperatinga 1,400-yard,par-29golfcoursevs.ashorter,allpar-3course.Whiletheremaytypicallybea differenceinattractionandusebetweenan“ExecutiveCourse”anda“Par-3”course,the existingcourseissoclosetobeingapar-3layout(andmaywellhavebeenwhenRobertMuir Gravesoriginallydesignedit)thatweseenomajordistinctioninattraction(orrevenue)between thesetwotypesoflayouts.Infact,anargumentforanall-par-3coursecouldbemadethatitis (1)moresuitableeventothecurrentlysmallacreage,(2)wouldbemoreopenandless congested,and(3)couldprovetobemorefunforawiderdiversityofgolfingabilities. However,inordertocomparethisapproach,wealsostudyandforecastfor“ConceptualPlan A”.Inthisoptionthecurrentfootprintispreserved,asarethelocationsforclubhouse,parking andmaintenance.

OPERATIONALRECOMMENDATIONS Inadditiontomakingrecommendationsforthe“bigpicture”issueofhowtheBlackberryFarm GolfCoursefitswithintheoverallStevensCreekRestorationMasterPlan,NGFConsulting offersthefollowingoperationalrecommendationsthatmayimproveoperationsandrevenues. Theserecommendationsarebasedontheleadconsultant’sexperienceandexpertise,and stemfromarelativelylimitedreviewoftheoperationandfacilities.Recommendationsare segregatedintothreecategories:(1)General;(2)Marketing;(3)Programming.Wenotethat manyoftheserecommendations–especiallythoserelatedtothemarketingofthefacility –maybeapplicableonlyaftertheproductissignificantlyimprovedunderoneofthe recommendedrenovationoptions. General OperatingStructure {Inthebodyofthereport,NGFprovidesadiscussionofvariousoperatingstructurespopular withmunicipalgolfsystems}. DespitetherapidlydeterioratingfinancialpictureatBFGC,webelievethatthecurrentstructure withon-siteCitymanagementandprivatizedconcessionsisappropriate,atleastuntilany decisionsregardingthegolfcourseitselfaremade.Thecurrentmanagerhasmanyyearsof knowledgeofthepropertyandappearstobeheavilyinvestedinitssuccess.Basedonour reviewofthegolfmarket,theconstraintspresentedbythedeterioratinggolfcourse,andthe relativelylimitedconstituencyofalternativelength(i.e.,par3orexecutive)golfcourses,we 36 NationalGolfFoundationConsulting,Inc.–ReviewofBlackberryFarmGolfCourse,Cupertino,CA–9 concludethatthedownturninroundsandrevenuesisduetomarketfactorsandaproductin seriousneedofupgrade.WebelievetheCityshouldwaittoseehowthefacilityperformsafter improvementsthatshouldgivenewmarketinginitiativestraction. Onthemaintenanceside,thecurrentcontractorseemstobemakingthemostofalessthan idealsituationwithrespecttocourseconditionsandinfrastructure,andthecurrentcontractcost seemshighlyreasonable.WedorecommendthattheCity,oncethecurrentcontractexpireson July1,2015,makeitapolicytohave5-yearcontractterms(withrenewaloptions)foreitherthe currentvendororanypotentialnewcontractor.

The project site is located in the City of Cupertino, California and is generally bounded by Stevens Creek Boulevard, Byrne Avenue, Mira Vista Avenue and McClellan Road as shown in Figure 1. The purpose of this study is to establish the baseline and to describe the current transportation setting including potential issues and opportunities. It includes a discussion of existing automobile traffic, transit, bicycle and walking conditions around the project site. The data and results contained within this memorandum will be used for the Existing Conditions section of the transportation impact analysis. Project Description The Stevens Creek Corridor Master Plan EIR will include an analysis of transportation in and around McClellan Ranch Preserve, Blackberry Farm Park, Blackberry Farm (Don Brown) Golf Course and the surrounding area based on the proposed changes to operations of these facilities as described in the Master Plan. This project site is composed of primarily recreational uses and is located in a residential neighborhood with multiple schools. Study Area Automobile traffic conditions were evaluated at three intersections located in the City of Cupertino near the project site. The three study intersections are: 1. Phar Lap Drive-Golf Course driveway/Stevens Creek Boulevard 2. Orange Avenue-Mann Drive/Stevens Creek Boulevard 3. Byrne Avenue/McClellan Road 97 Ms. Laurie Matthews, MIG December 9, 2014 Page 2 of 13 Analysis Scenarios The operations of the study intersections were evaluated during the weekday morning (8:00 AM - 9:00 AM), school afternoon (2:45 PM – 3:45 PM) and commute afternoon (5:15 PM - 6:15 PM) peak hours during the school year for the Existing Conditions scenario. Analysis Methods Signalized Intersections The operations of roadway facilities are typically described with the term Level of Service. Level of Service (LOS) is a qualitative description of traffic flow based on such factors as speed, travel time, delay, and freedom to maneuver. Six levels are defined from LOS A, the best operating conditions, to LOS F, the worst operating conditions. LOS E represents “at-capacity” operations. When traffic volumes exceed the capacity, stop-and-go conditions result, and operations are designated as LOS F. Based on the Santa Clara Valley Transportation Authority’s Traffic Impact Analysis Guidelines (2009) the Transportation Research Board’s 2000 Highway Capacity Manual (HCM) was used to conduct the level of service calculations for the study intersections. “Control delay” includes the initial deceleration delay, queue move-up time, stopped delay, and final acceleration delay. The average control delay for signalized intersections is calculated using the Traffix traffic analysis software and correlated to a LOS designation as shown in Table 1. Unsignalized Intersections Operations of the unsignalized study intersections (e.g., stop-sign controlled) were evaluated using the methods contained in Chapter 17 of the 2000 HCM and calculated using the Traffix analysis software. LOS for stop-sign controlled intersections are based on the average control delay expressed in seconds per vehicle. At two-way or side-street-stop controlled intersections, control delay is calculated for each movement, not for the intersection as a whole. For approaches composed of a single lane, control delay is computed as the average of all movements in that lane. Intersection impacts are determined based on the computed control delay and LOS for the worst approach at the intersection. Table 2 summarizes the relationship between delay and LOS for unsignalized intersections. 98 Ms. Laurie Matthews, MIG December 9, 2014 Page 3 of 13 TABLE 1 SIGNALIZED INTERSECTION LEVEL OF SERVICE DEFINITIONS USING AVERAGE CONTROL VEHICULAR DELAY Level of Service Description Average Control Delay Per Vehicle (Seconds) A Operations with very low delay occurring with favorable progression and/or short cycle lengths. ≤ 10.0 B+ B B- Operations with low delay occurring with good progression and/or short cycle lengths. 10.1 to 12.0 12.1 to 18.0 18.1 to 20.0 C+ C C- Operations with average delays resulting from fair progression and/or longer cycle lengths.

EXISTING CONDITIONS This section describes the existing conditions of the roadway facilities, pedestrian and bicycle facilities, and transit service in the study area. The project site is located on the west edge of the City of Cupertino. It is primarily surrounded by residential uses including mostly single family residences as well as multiple schools. North of the project site is Stevens Creek Elementary School; Lincoln Elementary School and Monta Vista High school are located on McClellan Road east of the project site. Kennedy Middle School is also located east of the project site along Bubb Road. Existing Roadway Network State Route 85, Foothill Boulevard and Stevens Creek Boulevard provide regional access to the project site. McClellan Road and Byrne Avenue via McClellan Road and via Orange Avenue/Granada Avenue provide local access to the project site. Descriptions of these roadways are presented below. Figure 1 shows the location of these facilities in relation to the project site. State Route 85 is a north-south freeway that runs from US 101 in Mountain View to US 101 in San Jose. The facility is located east of the project site and provides access to the project site via its interchange with Stevens Creek Boulevard. North of Stevens Creek Boulevard, State Route 85 carries about 124,000 vehicles per day. Foothill Boulevard is a north-south arterial roadway that runs between Interstate 280 and the southern city limits of Cupertino. South of the city limits, the roadway becomes Stevens Canyon Road. North of Interstate 280, the roadway becomes Foothill Expressway. The facility provides access to the site vita McClellan Road and Stevens Creek Boulevard. North of Stevens Creek Boulevard, Foothill Boulevard carries about 16,000 vehicles per day. Stevens Creek Boulevard is an east-west arterial roadway that runs from the Lehigh Quarry in the west to San Jose State University in the east (as San Carlos Street). The facility provides access to the project site via Orange Avenue, Granada Avenue and Byrne Avenue as well as the Phar Lap Drive/Golf Course parking lot. Near the project site, Stevens Creek Boulevard carries about 11,000 vehicles per day. Orange Avenue is a north-south local roadway that runs from Stevens Creek Boulevard in the north to McClellan Road in the south with a non-drivable break south of Granada Avenue. Its intersection with Stevens Creek Boulevard is located approximately 1,000 feet east of the project site. Orange Avenue carries about 1,500 vehicles per day at Stevens Creek Boulevard. Byrne Avenue is a north-south local roadway that runs from Stevens Creek Boulevard in the north (no connection) to McClellan Road in the south. This street borders the project site on the east side and provides access to San Fernando Avenue and Blackberry Farm. It also provides access to Monta Vista High School. Byrne Avenue carries about 650 vehicles per day near the project site. 100 Ms. Laurie Matthews, MIG December 9, 2014 Page 5 of 13 McClellan Road is an east-west minor collector roadway that runs from Foothill Boulevard in the west to De Anza Boulevard in the east. Vehicles accessing McClellan Ranch Preserve will do so using this roadway. McClellan Road carries about 4,000 vehicles per day near the McClellan Ranch driveway. Pedestrian Facilities Pedestrian facilities include sidewalks, crosswalks, and pedestrian signals. Discontinuous sidewalks approximately 7 feet wide are provided on north and south sides of McClellan Road beginning 200 feet west of Byrne Avenue and terminating on the south side of the road at Club House Lane. This corridor provides a pedestrian connection from the adjacent residential areas to McClellan Ranch Preserve. McClellan Ranch Preserve contains multiple paths including the Stevens Creek Trail. The sidewalk on the north side of McClellan Road continues along the perimeter of the McClellan Ranch, connecting to the east side of Mira Vista Road and terminating at Santa Paula Avenue. There is no sidewalk on the west side of Mira Vista Road. There is a neighborhood connection to the Stevens Creek Trail on Scenic Circle with a crosswalk. However, no sidewalks are provided in this residential area. Sidewalks are also provided on the north and south sides of Stevens Creek Boulevard. Along Stevens Creek Boulevard, crosswalks are located at both the Phar Lap Drive, Blackberry Farm Golf Course entrance and the Orange Avenue-Mann Drive entrance to the study area. The Phar Lap Drive/Golf Course entrance includes uncontrolled continental (piano key) crosswalks on the north and west sides of the intersection. At Orange Avenue-Mann Drive/Stevens Creek Boulevard standard controlled crosswalks are included on the north, east and south sides of the intersection. The majority of the neighborhood on the east side of the study area does not include sidewalks, and there are no sidewalks at the entrance to Blackberry Farm Park. Byrne Avenue south of San Fernando Avenue includes discontinuous sidewalks on both the east and west sides of the street. Bicycle Facilities Bikeway planning and design in California typically rely on guidelines and design standards established by California Department of Transportation (Caltrans) in the Highway Design Manual (Chapter 1000: Bikeway Planning and Design). There are three types of bikeway facilities noted in the Manual, as described below and shown on the accompanying figures. Class I Bikeway (Bike Path) provides a completely separate right-of-way and is designated for the exclusive use of bicycles and pedestrians with vehicle and pedestrian cross-flow minimized. In general, bike paths serve corridors not served by streets and highways or where sufficient right- of-way exists to allow such facilities to be constructed away from the influence of parallel streets and vehicle conflicts. 101 Ms. Laurie Matthews, MIG December 9, 2014 Page 6 of 13 Class II Bikeways (Bike Lanes) are lanes for bicyclists generally adjacent to the outer vehicle travel lanes. These lanes have special lane markings, pavement legends, and signage. Bicycle lanes are generally five (5) to six (6) feet wide. Adjacent vehicle parking and vehicle/pedestrian cross-flow are permitted. Class III Bikeway (Bike Route) are designated by signs or pavement markings for shared use with pedestrians or motor vehicles, but have no separated bike right-of-way or lane striping. Bike routes serve either to: a) provide continuity to other bicycle facilities, or b) designate preferred routes through high demand corridors. 102 Ms. Laurie Matthews, MIG December 9, 2014 Page 7 of 13 Near the project site, Class II bicycle facilities are provided along the length of Stevens Creek Boulevard from Ridgeway Drive near Cupertino’s western city limits to Cupertino’s eastern city limits near Lawrence Expressway. Class II bicycle facilities are also provided along Foothill Boulevard, McClellan Road east of Byrne Avenue and Bubb Road near the project site. A Class I bicycle facility, Stevens Creek Trail, runs through the project site from Stevens Creek Boulevard to McClellan Road. A Class III bicycle facility exists on McClellan Road west of Byrne Avenue to Foothill Boulevard. With the exception of McClellan Road from Byrne Ave extending east, no bicycle facilities are provided in the residential area surrounding the project site, but the low traffic volume on neighborhood roadways invites bicycle use. Existing Transit Service The site is served by Santa Clara Valley Transportation Authority (VTA) bus lines. The bus line that serves the project site is described in detail below and summarized in Table 2.

Headways are defined as the time interval between two transit vehicles traveling in the same direction over the same route. 4. Average peak load factor is the ratio of the average peak number of on-board passengers aboard during the peak period to supply of seats. Source: VTA website, July 2014. The nearest transit line is VTA bus Route 51, providing service to Mountain View and Los Altos. The nearest stop is at Phar Lap Drive and Stevens Creek Boulevard at the northern edge of the project site. Existing Intersection Volumes and Lane Configurations The existing traffic operations of the study intersections were evaluated for the highest one-hour volume during the weekday morning (6:30 AM to 9:30 AM), school dismissal afternoon (2:00 PM to 4:00 PM) and commute afternoon (4:00 PM to 7:00 PM) peak periods. Morning peak-hour intersection turning movement counts were conducted in May 2014. Afternoon peak-hour intersection turning movement counts were conducted in May 2014 (for the 4:00 PM to 7:00 PM 103 Ms. Laurie Matthews, MIG December 9, 2014 Page 8 of 13 period) and October 2014 (for the 2:00 PM to 7:00 PM period). Exhibit 1 below shows that the October 2014 afternoon counts indicate higher traffic volumes between 4:00 PM to 7:00 PM than the May 2014 afternoon counts. To be conservative, the October 2014 counts were used for the afternoon peak hour intersection analysis. Copies of the traffic counts are included in Attachment A. Figure 2 presents the existing AM and PM peak-hour turning movement volumes, lane configurations, and traffic control devices at the study intersections. Existing Intersection Levels of Service The results of the LOS analysis using the Traffix software program for Existing Conditions are shown below in Table 3. The results of the analysis show that all study intersections operate at acceptable levels during the AM and PM peak periods based on the peak hour LOS standard for the City of Cupertino. The City of Cupertino General Plan Circulation Element (2005) lists LOS D as the standard for intersections.

Source: Fehr & Peers, October 2014. FIELD OBSERVATIONS Observations of traffic volumes, intersection queuing, stopping sight distance, bicycle and pedestrian facilities, and general traffic flow in the study area were conducted in July and October 2014. Morning Peak Hour Field observations indicate that drop-off activity for Monta Vista High School and Lincoln Elementary school causes queues to form along McClellan Road from west of Byrne Avenue towards Bubb Road. The queues were observed to occasionally impact operations of the intersections of Byrne Avenue/McClellan Road. Crossing guards are present at the intersection of McClellan Road/Orange Avenue to protect pedestrian movements across the intersection. Heavy pedestrian flows were also observed along Orange Avenue; many pedestrians were walking in the roadway due to a lack of sidewalks. Queues along Stevens Creek Boulevard resulting from the State Route 85 interchange intersections would occasionally back up into the Orange Avenue- Mann Drive intersection. 105 Ms. Laurie Matthews, MIG December 9, 2014 Page 10 of 13 Afternoon (School) Peak Hour For the afternoon (school) peak hour, congestion was observed along McClellan Road along the school frontages. Crossing guards are present at the intersection of McClellan Road/Orange Drive to protect pedestrian movements across the intersection. Heavy pedestrian flows were also observed along Orange Avenue; many pedestrians were walking in the roadway due to a lack of sidewalks. Stevens Creek Boulevard was observed to be generally free flowing. Evening (Commute) Peak Hour In the evening peak hour, little congestion was observed along McClellan Road. Some congested was observed along Stevens Creek Boulevard at Orange Avenue-Mann Drive. Queues along eastbound Stevens Creek Boulevard from the State Route 85 interchange also occasionally affected operations at the Stevens Creek Boulevard/Orange Avenue-Mann Drive intersection. Sight Distance along Westbound McClellan Road Stopping sight distance is the clear sight distance a driver needs to be provided to stop before colliding with another vehicle or object. Due to a large tree and overgrown vegetation, the sight distance from the existing southbound driveway of McClellan Ranch looking east is approximately 130 feet. According to Google Earth, the elevation of McClellan Road at Tressler Court is approximately 380 feet; at the McClellan Ranch Preserve driveway, the elevation of McClellan Road is approximately 350 feet. The distance between Tressler Court and the McClellan Ranch Preserve driveway is approximately 750 feet. Therefore the average grade along westbound McClellan Road is approximately -4.27%. The American Association of State Highway Transportation Officials (AASHTO) publication “A Policy on Geometric Design of Highways and Streets” 6th Edition (commonly known as the “Green Book”) provides the following equation for calculating stopping sight distance (SSD): 𝑆𝑆𝐷=1.47𝑉𝑡+𝑉230(𝑎32.2�±𝑔) Where: V = travel speed (speed limit = 25 mph) t = break reaction time (2.5 seconds, recommended assumption in the Green Book) a = deceleration rate (11.2 ft/s2, recommended assumption in the Green Book for deceleration on roadways with fair to good pavement surfaces) g = street grade in ft/ft (positive value indicates uphill slope) Field observations indicate that the pavement along McClellan Road from Tressler Court to Club House Lane is at least in fair condition, so the 11.2 ft/s2 deceleration rate assumption is reasonable. According to the Green Book, “[t]he friction available on most wet pavement surfaces and the capabilities of most vehicle braking systems can provide breaking friction that exceeds this rate,” referring to 11.2 ft/s2 and “[a]pproximately 90 percent of all drivers decelerate at rates great than 11.2 ft/s2.” 106 Ms. Laurie Matthews, MIG December 9, 2014 Page 11 of 13 Based on the conservative assumptions above, the calculated stopping sight distance for westbound McClellan Road approaching the McClellan Ranch Preserve driveway is approximately 160 feet. This is a design value, and the actual stopping distance would likely be less. However, opportunities to increase sight distance should be considered to improve visibility at this intersection. 107 |þ85 1 2 3 Ste v e n s C a n y o n R d Ca s t i n e A v e Stevens Creek Blvd Olive Ave Ma d e r a D r M a r y Ave McClellan Rd Palm Ave Festival Dr Cupertino Rd Im p e r i a l A v e C r e scent Rd Salem Ave Columbus Ave Lomita Ave VistaKnollBlvd Santa Teresa Dr S a n Fe r nando Ave Li n d a V i s t a D r St o k e s A v e OakleafPl Pu mpki n Dr Lomita Dr C anyonV ista Dr Granada Ave Hyannispo r t D r RanchoDeepCliffDr Al h a m b r a A v e University Way Milford Dr Presidio Dr Shattuck Dr Rosario Ave Hermosa Ave Creekline Dr S a n t a Cl a r a A v e Almaden Ave E m p ir e A v e Ca s s P l Santa Paula Ave Kendle S t Rucker Dr G l e n Pl Dolores Ave Holly Oak D r KesterDr Bahl S t S t o n y d a l e D r Woodbury Dr Edward Way Rumford Dr Carta Blanca S t Ad r i a n a A v e Ai n s w o r t h D r N F o o t h i l l B l v d Or a n g e A v e Mann Dr BubbRd By r n e A v e P e nin s u la A v e An n A r b o r A v e Janice Ave C restonDr Alp i n e D r Wilkinson Ave Ca r m e n R d S F o o t h i l l B l v d PharLap Dr ScenicBlvd N o v e m b e r D r S e p t e m b e r D r De m pster Ave C r a n b e r r y D r D eepCliffe D r Lily Ave Anson Ave Pa l o V i s t a R d RiversideDr H i l l c rest Rd Parkwood D r N o el A v e Mi r a V i s t a R d MontaVista HighSchool LincolnElementarySchool JFKMiddleSchool N: \ P r o j e c t s \ _ S J 1 4 _ P r o j e c t s \ S J 1 4 _ 1 5 1 2 _ C u p e r t i n o _ P a r k s _ M a s t e r _ P l a n \ G r a p h i c s \ G I S \ M X D \ F i g 0 1 _ S t u d y A r e a . m x d Project Location and Study IntersectionsFigure 1 Project Area 1 Stevens Creek Boulevard/Phar Lap Drive - Golf Course Driveway2Stevens Creek Boulevard/Orange Avenue - Mann Drive3McClellan Road/Byrne Ave 108 |þ85Project Area MontaVista HighSchool LincolnElementarySchool JFK MiddleSchool McClellan Rd Alcazar Ave S t e v e n s C r e e k B l v d Olive Ave Palm Ave P e n in s u la A v e Mary Ave Cupertino Rd Im p e r i a l A v e C r e scent Rd Salem Ave Lomita Ave S a n Fernando Ave OakleafPl Lomita Dr Granada Ave Parkwood D r Hyannisport D r Al h a m b r a A v e E m p ir e A v e Grand Ave Presidio Dr N F o o t h i l l B l v d Hermosa Ave S a n t a Cla r a A v e Almaden Ave Ca s s P l Santa Paula Ave G l e n Pl Dolores Ave HollyOak Dr Ad r i a n a A v e Or a n g e A v e Ph a r L a p D r Ma n n D r B u b b R d By r n e A v e Janice Ave Ca r m e n R d S F o o t h i l l B l v d ScenicBlvd D e e p CliffeDr LindaVistaDr Pa l o V i s t a R d Lily Ave H i l l c rest Rd N o v e m b e r D r Mi r a V i s t a R d 1 2 3 edd d bd ac f ae gac f ae 40 [ 4 4 ] ( 2 3 ) 6 [ 1 2 ] ( 4 ) 91 [ 8 9 ] ( 4 7 ) 0 [ 3 ] ( 3 ) 0 [ 0 ] ( 0 ) 3 [ 1 0 ] ( 1 2 ) 22 [ 5 2 ] ( 1 9 ) 37 [ 4 2 ] ( 4 0 ) 27 [ 1 0 ] ( 1 3 ) 0 [ 1 ] ( 1 ) 27 ( 0 ) 8 [ 1 2 ] ( 2 ) 13 [ 1 6 ] ( 9 ) 92 [ 4 1 ] ( 1 0 2 ) 9 [10] (38) 411 [426] (875) 4 [4] (2) 2 [8] (10) 431 [426] (827) 25 [37] (106) 44 [34] (2) 97 [159] (234) 15 [30] (30) 847 [406] (437) 6 [4] (8) 31 [78] (72) 819 [388] (460) 33 [52] (73) 20 [63] (18) 215 [196] (177) !"$ !"$ èéëìí !"$ 3.

Populations are dynamic: people move in and out of a community, people who stay in a community age, and people are born and die every day. Demographic shifts can result in changes in consumer preferences, including for recreation. This document presents a population profile for Cupertino, covering population projections, income, employment, household composition, ethnicity, and age; and findings on recreation trends related to demographics. Additional recreation trends that affect facility planning and design will be addressed in a subsequent work product. Cupertino’s Population Profile The following sections detail demographic characteristics and trends in Cupertino, including how the city has changed and grown in recent years, which will inform the subsequent project needs analysis. Demographic data were compiled from the 2010 U.S. Census Decennial Census and 2008-2012 American Community Survey (ACS). The ACS publishes estimates of demographic conditions for geographies the size of Cupertino based on statistical sampling conducted continuously over a three-year period. While these data cannot represent conditions at a specific point in time, as in the previous decennial censuses, they are updated on an annual basis and offer a valuable means to compare characteristics across geographies. Estimated future changes in population, households, and employment were based on projections provided by the Association of Bay Area Governments (ABAG). To the extent that data are available, information is presented for Cupertino along with comparative information for Santa Clara County and the nine-county Bay Area. The base year of the demographic analysis is 2010 to facilitate comparisons and for consistency with ABAG forecasts. Population Between 2000 and 2010, the rate of population and household growth in Cupertino surpassed the growth rate in surrounding areas. As shown in Table 1, Cupertino had a population of 58,302 residents and 20,181 households in 2010. These figures represent a 15 percent increase in population and an 11 percent increase in households since 2000, significantly higher than the rate of growth in Santa Clara County (six percent increase in population; seven percent increase in households) and the Bay Area (five percent increase in population; six percent increase in households). A portion of this population growth can be attributed to the City’s annexation of 168 acres of land between 2000 and 2008. Cupertino’s 146 DEMOGRAPHIC AND RECREATION TRENDS ANALYSIS 2 | December 2014 annexation of Garden Gate, Monta Vista, and scattered County “islands” added 1,600 new residents. After removing the population increases from these annexations, the City of Cupertino experienced a 12 percent increase in its population during the previous decade. Overall, the state of California’s population grew at a similar rate to Cupertino, with an overall increase of 10 percent. For 2013, the population of Cupertino is estimated to be 60,189. According to Department of Finance figures, the population was 59,946 as of January 1, 2014. Table 1: Population and Household Trends, 2000-2010 2000 2010 Percent Change 2000-2010 Cupertino Population 50,546 58,302 15.3% Households 18,204 20,181 10.9% Santa Clara County Population 1,682,585 1,781,642 5.9% Households 565,863 604,204 6.8% Bay Area (a) Population 6,783,760 7,150,739 5.4% Households 2,466,019 2,608,023 5.8% California Population 33,871,648 37,253,956 (b) 10.0% Households 11,502,870 12,577,498 (b) 9.3% Notes: (a) The nine-county Bay Area includes Alameda, Contra Costa, Marin, Napa, San Francisco, San Mateo, Santa Clara, Solano, and Sonoma counties. (b) Average household size and household type figures from American Community Survey (ACS), 2007-2011. Sources: U.S. Census 2000 & 2010; BAE, 2013. Household Composition Households in Cupertino tend to about the same size as Santa Clara County, but slightly larger than average for the Bay Area as a whole. In 2010, the average household size was approximately 2.9 persons in Santa Clara County and in the overall State of California, as shown in Table 2. Cupertino has an average of 2.83 persons per household, slightly lower than the county and state averages. According to data from the Association of Bay Area Governments (ABAG), Cupertino has a larger proportion of family households and households with children than Santa Clara County and the Bay Area. Family households accounted for more than three-quarters of all Cupertino households (approximately 78 percent) in 2010, compared to 71 percent of households in Santa Clara County and 65 percent of households in the Bay Area. Close to half of all family households in Cupertino (46 percent) included children under the age of 18, compared to approximately one third in Santa Clara County (35 percent) and the Bay Area (30 percent). The large and growing number of households with children in Cupertino is due largely to the highly rated school districts that serve the city. 147 DEMOGRAPHIC AND RECREATION TRENDS ANALYSIS Stevens Creek Corridor Master Plan | 3 Household characteristics suggest recent demographic shifts in Cupertino, leading to larger household sizes, more families, and more households with children. The average household size in Cupertino increased from 2.75 persons in 2000 to 2.83 persons in 2010, while the average household size was essentially unchanged in the Bay Area. The proportion of family households and households with children also increased between 2000 and 2010 in Cupertino while changing only slightly in Santa Clara County and the Bay Area. Table 2: Household Composition, 2000-2010 2000 2010 Percent Change 2000-2010 Cupertino Household Size 2.75 2.83 2.9% Santa Clara County Household Size 2.92 2.89 -1.0% Bay Area (a) Household Size 2.69 2.69 0% California Household Size 2.87 2.91 1.4% Source: American Community Survey (ACS), 2007-2011 Age Distribution Census data, as summarized by ABAG, indicates that Cupertino residents have a slightly higher median age than residents in the region, and the city has a significantly different distribution of age cohorts. In 2010, the median age in Cupertino was 39.9, compared to 36.2 in Santa Clara County. Looking at the age cohorts, as shown in Table 3, Cupertino has a high proportion of children under 18 (28 percent of the population in 2010, compared to 24 percent in the county and 22 percent in the region) and adults in the 35 to 64 years-of-age cohort (46 percent of the population in 2010, compared to 41 percent in the county and 42 percent in the region). Conversely, the city has a lower proportion of adults in the 18 to 34 years-of-age cohort, which accounted for only 14 percent of the population in Cupertino and 24 percent of the population in the county. These data demonstrate that Cupertino is primarily populated by families with children and that young adults do not comprise a large portion of the population, though there is a significant adult and middle-aged population. 148 DEMOGRAPHIC AND RECREATION TRENDS ANALYSIS 4 | December 2014 Table 3: Age Distribution, 2000-2010 Age Cohort City of Cupertino Santa Clara County 2000 2010 2000 2010 Under 15 22.4% 22.5% 20.9% 20.2% 15 to 17 4.3% 5.1% 3.9% 3.9% 18 to 20 2.5% 2.8% 3.9% 3.8% 21 to 24 2.7% 2.8% 5.4% 5.1% 25 to 34 12.1% 8.6% 17.8% 15.1% 35 to 44 21.0% 18.2% 17.6% 15.6% 45 to 54 15.4% 17.3% 13.0% 14.8% 55 to 64 8.7% 10.2% 8.0% 10.4% 65 to 74 5.8% 6.2% 5.2% 6.0% 75 to 84 3.8% 4.0% 3.3% 3.5% 85 + 1.4% 2.2% 1.1% 1.5% Median Age 37.9 39.9 34.0 36.2 Sources: Association of Bay Area Governments (ABAG), Housing Element Data Profiles, December 2013 Ethnicity Cupertino differs markedly from the county and region with respect to the racial and ethnic breakdown of the population. In 2010, almost two thirds (63 percent) of the population of Cupertino was of Asian descent, while approximately one third of the population of Santa Clara County and one quarter of the population of the Bay Area consisted of individuals of Asian descent. In all three geographies, data from 2010 demonstrate a significant increase in the Asian population compared to 2000; however, the difference is especially notable in Cupertino, where the Asian population grew by nearly 20 percent between 2000 and 2010. Compared to the county and region, Cupertino had a smaller share of individuals from all other racial and ethnic groups in 2010. The city’s share of individuals of Hispanic origin (four percent of the population) is particularly small relative to Santa Clara County (27 percent of the population) and the region (24 percent of the population). A sizeable portion of the population is foreign-born, which attributes to the ethnic heterogeneity of the City. According to the ACS survey, over 29,000 residents of the City were foreign-born, almost half of the population. Of the foreign-born population, 83% are of Asian descent. This immigrant population is highly-educated and high-earning, with 33% of the population being college-educated, and nearly half (47.5 percent) having obtained a post-graduate or professional degree. Approximately 91 percent of the population speaks a language other than English, and 34 percent reports that they speak English “less than very well.” Typically, these foreign-born residents gravitate towards jobs in either manufacturing or professional jobs in scientific, technical, or management positions, with more than three- quarters (76.4 percent) earning over $75,000 per year. 149 DEMOGRAPHIC AND RECREATION TRENDS ANALYSIS Stevens Creek Corridor Master Plan | 5 Table 4: Cupertino Ethnicity, 2000-2010 Census 2000 Census 2010 Percent change in City Population 2000-2010 Ethnicity Total Percent Total Percent White 25,342 50.1% 18,270 31.3% -27.9% Black or African American 347 0.7% 344 0.6% -0.9% American Indian and Alaska Native 101 0.2.% 117 0.2% 15.8% Asian 22,462 44.4% 36,895 63.3% 64.3% Native Hawaiian and Other Pacific Islander 67 0.1% 54 0.1% -19.4% Some other race 639 1.3% 670 1.1% 4.9% Two or more races 1,588 3.1% 1,952 3.6% 22.9% Total 50,546 100% 58,302 100% 15.3% Hispanic or Latino (of any race) 2,010 4.0% 2,113 3.6% 5.1% Total Not Hispanic or Latino 48,536 96% 56,189 96.4% 15.8% Sources: U.S. Census 2000 & 2010, Association of Bay Area Governments (ABAG) Household Income Households in Cupertino earn significantly higher annual incomes than households in Santa Clara County and the Bay Area. ABAG data indicates that the median annual household income in Cupertino was over $124,825, approximately $36,700 higher than the median household income in Santa Clara County ($89,064). Income disparity between Cupertino and the region was most substantial in the high income categories. Approximately 62 percent of all households in Cupertino had an annual income of $100,000 or more, while only 45 percent of households in Santa Clara County and 39 percent of households in the Bay Area had an annual income of $100,000 or more. 150 DEMOGRAPHIC AND RECREATION TRENDS ANALYSIS 6 | December 2014 Table 5a: Household Income Distribution, 2011 Household Income City of Cupertino Santa Clara County Bay Area (a) Number Percent Number Percent Number Percent Less than $24,999 1,844 9.1% 79,057 13.2% 404,254 15.7% $25,000 to $49,999 1,933 9.6% 90,027 15.0% 440,575 17.1% $50,000 to $74,999 1,965 9.7% 84,596 14.1% 403,087 15.6% $75,000 to $99,999 1,874 9.3% 75,974 12.7% 324,123 12.6% $100,000 or more 12,560 62.3% 269,998 45.0% 1,005,441 39.0% Total 20,176 100% 599,652 100% 2,577,480 100% Median Household Income $124,825 $89,064 (b) Per Capita Income $51,965 $40,698 (b) Notes: (a) Alameda, Contra Costa, Marin, Napa, San Francisco, San Mateo, Santa Clara, Solano, and Sonoma Counties.

According to the 2008-2012 ACS estimate, Cupertino residents’ high level of educational attainment correlates positively with a high degree of professional occupations concentrated in management, business, science, and arts as compared with Santa Clara County or the Bay Area. As a result of the higher percentage of management, business, science, and arts occupations, the median earnings of those working in Cupertino (as opposed to those living in Cupertino) is $81,000, again higher than Santa Clara County overall. Despite enjoying a comparatively higher median household and earning income than the rest of the county and region, 4.2 percent of individuals are living below the poverty level according to the ACS estimate for 2008-2012. 151 DEMOGRAPHIC AND RECREATION TRENDS ANALYSIS Stevens Creek Corridor Master Plan | 7 Local Employment Opportunities Since 2000, there has been a net increase of over 1,200 jobs held by Cupertino residents, for a total of 25,200 employed residents in 2011. As shown in Table 6, the number of jobs held by Cupertino residents grew by 5.2 percent between 2000 and 2011. The City of Cupertino job growth percentage was far greater than the growth experienced by Santa Clara County as a whole at 0.8 percent between 2000 and 2011. Despite this overall growth, most industry sectors experienced a decline in the number of jobs available. Between 2000 and 2011, the largest job losses in employment occurred in the manufacturing and retail trade sectors. These decreases were offset by growth in the professional, scientific, management, technology, administrative, and waste management services industry, which added 1,748 jobs, and the educational, health, and social services industry, which added 1,144 jobs. Even with the recent changes to employment sectors during the previous decade, manufacturing remains the largest job sector for residents of both Cupertino and Santa Clara County. As of 2011, manufacturing jobs comprise 28.1 percent of all jobs held by Cupertino residents and 19.6 percent of jobs held by residents of Santa Clara County overall. The manufacturing sector includes the production of computer, electronic, and communication equipment, with such major employers as Apple and Hewlett- Packard. The largest employers in the City include: Apple (whose worldwide headquarters is situated in Cupertino), the Cupertino Union School District, the Foothill-De Anza Community College District, the Fremont Union High School District, and Seagate Technology. With the 2008-2012 collapse of the financial and credit markets and the worldwide recession, Cupertino and the broader Silicon Valley region lost some of the gains in key sectors that were achieved between 2003 and 2007. The impacts of the economic downturn, although serious, were somewhat localized to particular sectors and industries such as construction, manufacturing, and retail/wholesale trade. Fortunately for Cupertino, high-tech employment did not decline at the same rate as the rest of the economy, and long-term prospects for this sector remain strong. 152 DEMOGRAPHIC AND RECREATION TRENDS ANALYSIS 8 | December 2014 Table 6: Jobs by Sector, 2000-2011 Industry Sector Cupertino Santa Clara County 2000 2011 2000 2011 Jobs % Total Jobs % Total % Change Jobs % Total Jobs % Total % Change Agriculture, forestry, fishing and hunting, and mining 76 0.3% 36 0.1% -52.6% 4,364 0.5% 4,425 0.5% 1.4% Construction 642 2.7% 420 1.7% -34.6% 42,232 5.0% 47,005 5.5% 11.3% Manufacturing 7,952 33.2% 7,077 28.1% -11.0% 231,784 27.5% 167,034 19.6% -27.9% Wholesale trade 628 2.6% 545 2.2% -13.2% 25,515 3.0% 20,252 2.4% -20.6% Retail trade 2,056 8.6% 1,540 6.1% -25.1% 83,369 9.9% 81,918 9.6% -1.7% Transportation and warehousing, and utilities 383 1.6% 425 1.7% 11.0% 23,546 2.8% 23,578 2.8% 0.1% Information 1,462 6.1% 1,370 5.4% -6.3% 39,098 4.6% 32,627 3.8% -16.6% Finance, insurance, real estate, and rental and leasing 1,246 5.2% 1,368 5.4% 9.8% 38,715 4.6% 44,015 5.2% 13.7% Professional, scientific, management, administrative, and waste management services 4,667 19.5% 6,415 25.5% 37.5% 131,015 15.5% 152,960 18.0% 16.7% Educational, health, and social services 3,063 12.8% 4,207 16.7% 37.3% 123,890 14.7% 157,349 18.5% 27.0% Arts, entertainment, recreation, accommodation and food services 832 3.5% 734 2.9% -11.8% 49,186 5.8% 60,638 7.1% 23.3% Other services (except public administration) 590 2.5% 715 2.8% 21.2% 29,987 3.6% 36,330 4.3% 21.2% Public administration 362 1.5% 351 1.4% -3.0% 21,211 2.5% 22,421 2.6% 5.7% Total 23,959 100% 25,203 100% 5.2% 843,912 100% 850,552 100% 0.8% Sources: ACS, 2007-2011; BAE, 2013. 153 DEMOGRAPHIC AND RECREATION TRENDS ANALYSIS Stevens Creek Corridor Master Plan | 9 Unemployment According to unemployment data provided by the State of California Employment Development Department, as of February 2014, the City of Cupertino had an unemployment rate of approximately 3.9 percent. The unemployment rate for the City was less than that of the County as a whole (6.1 percent). Since 2008, the unemployment rate has remained stable in both the City and the County, which had unemployment rates of 3.8 percent and 6.0 percent, respectively, at that time. Modes to Work for People 16 and Over The ACS estimates that residents’ average about 24 minutes for their daily commute. Over 24,000 residents commute to work, with most (88 percent) utilizing a car, truck, or van as their mode of transport. Most of these drivers (76 percent) drove alone, while 11.6 percent carpooled. At 2 percent, public transportation usage is relatively low compared to the county (3.3 percent) and the greater Bay Area (10 percent). Among the modes of public transportation, buses are the most widely utilized (1 percent), while walking and biking, (2.1 and 0.9 percent respectively) comprise remaining commuters. About 5.7 percent of the population works from home or telecommutes. Table 7 outlines the means of transportation trends for the City. The City is serviced by the Santa Clara Valley Transportation Authority (VTA), which provides bus, light rail, and shuttle service for a multitude of routes and connections to transit regional transit hubs throughout Santa Clara County. Caltrain provides regional rail services in proximity to the City of Cupertino. Major transit freeways and highways include US Route 101, Interstate 280, and CA State Routes 85 and 82. The VTA has accommodated rush hour traffic through the creation of Silicon Valley Express Lanes, on the SR 237/I-880. The VTA also has a comprehensive Bicycle Program that serves residents of Santa Clara County. In the City of Cupertino, and throughout the county, bike lanes, bike parking, and bike and transit centers have been created to improve bicyclist and transit safety. 154 DEMOGRAPHIC AND RECREATION TRENDS ANALYSIS 10 | December 2014 Table 7: Means of Transportation to Work City of Cupertino Santa Clara County Transportation Mode Totals Percent Households Percent Car/truck/or van 21,762 88% 714,507 10.4% Drove alone 18,888 76% 630,618 76% Carpooled 2,874 11.6% 83,889 10.2% Public Transportation 511 2% 26,876 3.3% Bus or trolley bus 292 1% 17,663 2.2% Streetcar or trolley car 0 0% 1,431 0.2% Subway or elevated 17 0.07% 1,357 0.2% Railroad 202 0.8% 6,412 0.8% Ferryboat 0 0% 13 0% Taxicab 0 0% 345 0% Motorcycle 128 0.5% 2,386 0.3% Bicycle 232 .9% 11,777 1.4% Walked 529 2.1% 18,011 2.2% Other means 176 0.7% 9,653 1.2% Worked at home 1,403 5.7% 37,267 4.5% Total 24,741 100% 820,822 100% Source: U.S. Census Bureau American Fact Finder, 2008-2010 data American Communities Survey, ABAG Population Projections Table 8 presents population, household, and job growth projections for Cupertino, Santa Clara County, and the nine-county Bay Area region between 2010 and 2040. The figures represent the analysis conducted by the Association of Bay Area Governments (ABAG) using 2010 Census data and a variety of local sources. Cupertino’s population is expected to grow by 12,898 residents—from 58,302 in 2010 to 71,200 in 2040. This translates into an increase of 22 percent over 30 years. ABAG projects both Santa Clara County and the ABAG region to experience much larger growth (36 percent and 31 percent over 30 years, respectively). Specifically, communities with lower housing costs have been experiencing influxes of residents in search of comparative affordable housing. As a community with high costs of housing, Cupertino has not experienced an influx of residents. Instead, Cupertino’s job growth is expected to continue to outpace population and household growth in Cupertino between 2010 and 2020, compounding the “jobs rich" nature of the City, resulting in a jobs-to-housing ratio of 1.40 by 2020 (up from 1.29 in 2010) but mirroring the regional average of 1.40. Furthermore, job growth is projected to level off after 2020 to a comparable pace with population and household growth. Similar trends are also projected for the County and the ABAG region as a whole. 155 DEMOGRAPHIC AND RECREATION TRENDS ANALYSIS Stevens Creek Corridor Master Plan | 11 Table 8: Population, Household, and Job Projections, 2010-2040 Percent Change 2010 2020 2030 2040 2010- 2020 2020- 2030 2030- 2040 City of Cupertino Population 58,302 62,100 66,300 71,200 6.5% 6.8% 7.4% Households 20,181 21,460 22,750 24,040 6.3% 6.0% 5.7% Jobs 26,090 29,960 31,220 33,110 14.8% 4.2% 6.1% Santa Clara County Population 1,781,642 1,977,900 2,188,500 2,423,500 11.0% 10.6% 10.7% Households 604,204 675,670 747,070 818,400 11.8% 10.6% 9.5% Jobs 926,270 1,091,270 1,147,020 1,229,520 17.8% 5.1% 7.2% Bay Area (a) Population 6,432,288 7,011,700 7,660,700 8,394,700 9.0% 9.3% 9.6% Households 2,350,186 2,560,480 2,776,640 2,992,990 8.9% 8.4% 7.8% Jobs 3,040,110 3,579,600 3,775,080 4,060,160 17.7% 5.5% 7.6% Notes: (a) Alameda, Contra Costa, Marin, Napa, San Francisco, San Mateo, Santa Clara, Solano, and Sonoma Counties. Source: Association of Bay Area Governments (ABAG), Housing Element Data Profiles, December 2013. Recreation Trends As noted, the demographic composition of a community can have an impact on recreation, including use patterns and preferences. Cupertino’s park system was built to serve a population that was mostly white, middle class, and residing in single family homes. Today, Cupertino’s population profile is different, though it is still a community that attracts families with children. While single family homes remain a significant portion of the housing available, other multi-family options are more available. In addition, the employment population has grown significantly. This section reviews recreation trends, at the national, state, regional and local levels. National Trends and Issues Each of the national trends highlighted below has implications for parks and recreation service providers, and is seen at the regional and local levels.  Connecting Kids with Nature. Across the country there has been a movement to connect kids with nature and the outdoors. This movement is in response to data about the decreased time kids are spending in the outdoors compared to previous generations. In particular, the book Nature Deficit Disorder by Richard Louv spurred a national dialogue on this topic. According to the California Outdoor Recreation Plan (CORP), by 2008 children between the age of 8 and 18 years were spending an average of nearly 6.5 hours per day with electronic media. That average is likely higher now. A growing body of research confirms that spending time in nature 156 DEMOGRAPHIC AND RECREATION TRENDS ANALYSIS 12 | December 2014 benefits children. Children who directly experience the natural world are intellectually, emotionally, socially, spiritually and physically healthier.  The “Mainstreaming” of Outdoor Recreation. According to the Outdoor Industry Association, a record number of Americans — 142.6 million — participated in at least one outdoor activity and collectively and went on 12.1 billion outdoor outings in 2013. The popularity of outdoor recreation did not wane, despite the recent economic downturn, as retail sales of sporting goods products (equipment, footwear, clothing, and recreational transport) still represented consumer expenditures of over $37.7 billion nationally in 2009. Not surprisingly, the Baby Boomer generation (people aged 42-60) and the millennial generation (age 30 and younger) are the largest segments driving this new outdoor lifestyle trend. Typical activities include: camping, hiking, biking, boating, swimming, fishing, and wildlife viewing. Today, the active outdoor lifestyle has gone mainstream, and is characterized by an emphasis on wellness and quality time with family and friends. To meet this new and changing demand, people are looking for ways to be outdoors in an urban area. Due to time demands of family and jobs, convenience and accessibility are critical, especially in urban environment. The opportunity and challenge before parks and recreation professionals is to provide meaningful outdoor activity in urbanized environments. Recreation-Oriented Development is the new term for the alignment of parks, recreation and open space to drive new investment in both urban and suburban communities and focus development in established communities.  An Emphasis on Health and Wellness. Our nation is facing a health and wellness crisis on many levels. People are more sedentary, resulting in high levels of obesity and diseases such as diabetes. At the same time, they are struggling with ever‐increasing health care costs. The health care sector itself has begun to look at prevention as a way to increase health and reduce costs. More studies are being done on the built environment and its impact on activity levels. Physical and mental recreation are both equally important and two critical factors need to be considered in the provision of outdoor recreation: (1) the need for flexibility in recreation programs, and (2) the need to provide opportunities for stress release. The benefits of outdoor recreation are multitudinous, as outdoor activities promote wellness, social interaction, and a connection to the outdoors. A report for the Outdoor Resources Review Group outlined the positive impact outdoor recreation has on health, both as an alleviator of stress and as a means to combat obesity and similar health concerns. For children specifically, outdoor activities at an early age can cultivate an interest and connection with the outdoors that can last a lifetime. This is especially important with the omnipresence of handheld devices and computers that are increasingly prevalent in younger generations. Outdoor environments such as parks and open spaces also promote social interaction, adding intrinsic value to communities and environments.  Technology. Technology offers parks and recreation providers new opportunities as well as new challenges. Technology can simultaneously provide a mass communication tool while improving affordability, accessibility, and efficiency of community facilities and services. Opportunities for tech‐aided recreation are growing while a countertrend for techno‐free parks and environments also is emerging. 157 DEMOGRAPHIC AND RECREATION TRENDS ANALYSIS Stevens Creek Corridor Master Plan | 13 Technology is adopted and embraced differently by different population groups. In a highly educated, high income, and tech savvy community like Cupertino, there are higher expectations around technology and communications. The populations between the ages of 18 and 44 in particular are technologically-fluent, have come of age during a rapid digital expansion, and will likely integrate technology into recreational endeavors. In addition to mobile internet access, low-cost hardware such as Global Positioning System (GPS), wearable fitness trackers and rugged video cameras have emerged as important technology in outdoor recreation. These widely available technologies are adding an additional layer to the park users’ experience, allowing recording of routes, physical achievement and video which for personal enjoyment or sharing with others. Portable, rugged cameras (both on mobile phones and special purpose such as GoPro video cameras) are often used to record the exploits and explorations of outdoor enthusiasts directly from their point of view. These cameras record directly to digital formats that can be shared online. GPS enabled devices allow for recording trip information and advanced orienteering or geocaching. A key challenge is the rapid change in technology, which happens at a pace faster than many public parks agencies are accustomed to. State and Regional Trends and Issues  A Diverse State. According to a park and recreation trend report prepared by the California Department of Parks and Recreation (CDPR), the population of California will approach 50 million by 2040, representing 12 percent of the nation’s population. The population will be amongst the most diverse in the nation, attributing to 36 percent of the U.S. Asian population, 31 percent of the U.S. Hispanic and Latino population, as well as 23% of the mixed-ethnic population. Furthermore, it will continue to the lead the nation in the number of foreign-born people living in the state. The youngest population, California’s K-12 demographic, will be amongst the most culturally diverse population in the world. With technology a central facet in their lives from birth.  Baby Boomers. Mirroring the national trend of an aging population, the senior population in California is expected to double by 2020. According to the same CDPR report, older populations will be “drawn to conservation and heritage causes, adding much-needed capacity to California’s citizen-steward ranks.” City of Cupertino Trends and Issues  General Plan Guidance. Nurturing an interest in parks, recreation, and open spaces reinforces the goals and policies set forth by the City’s General Plan, which iterates the importance of “building community by bringing people together in common gathering places and tying neighborhoods together through connecting trails.”  Income Disparity. Despite having a relatively high median household income level, Cupertino has a population of residents who are below the poverty line. This population accounts for 4 percent of Cupertino residents. 158 DEMOGRAPHIC AND RECREATION TRENDS ANALYSIS 14 | December 2014  Employment Population. Cupertino has a significant employment population, dominated by high tech jobs. The high tech industry is known for providing recreation and entertainment amenities as part of the workplace environment, such as ping pong tables, basketball courts, and social gathering spaces, as a means of attracting and keeping talent. Nonetheless, there may be recreation needs, and this population may be using public parks and facilities. Master Planning Implications This report is intended to provide a deeper understanding of who Cupertino is serving today and who the City will be serving in the future, to inform the citywide needs assessment now under development as well as the design program for the Stevens Creek Corridor. 159 ONLINE MASTER PLAN ALTERNATIVES SUMMARY DECEMBER 2014 INTRODUCTION An online survey was conducted to measure community interest and preferences for three proposed alternatives for Stevens Creek Corridor. The open house provided the public with an opportunity to examine and comment on options for park designs, the golf course, Stocklmeir Ranch, community gardens, play areas and pools. Participants also had the opportunity to provide further comments regarding the alternatives and individual elements contained within the alternatives. The questionnaire was linked to the project website and made available to the public for one month between November 6 and December 4, 2014, and gathered 349 responses. Where percentages are provided below, they refer to the total number of participants who responded to that particular question.1 PARK DESIGN OPTIONS Participants were asked questions regarding three proposed design alternatives for Stevens Creek Corridor. When asked which design was their favorite, slightly more than one-third of all participants chose Option C. This was more than the combined number of participants who chose Option A or Option B. For each alternative, additional questions were asked to provide feedback on why a particular option was preferred. A summary of feedback received for each option follows. 1 Where participants were able to choose more than one response, percentages may not equal 100%. 160 ONLINE MASTER PLAN ALTERNATIVES SUMMARY PAGE 2 A comparison of the responses for each of the three options is highlighted in the following figure: Option A A total of 13% of participants identified Option A as their favorite design. Why is this design your favorite option? A B C I like the intensity of development in that option. 16% 50% 28% I like the park facilities and activities offered in that option. 87% 66% 35% Other responses included:  good support for the community garden  engages more people  love the volleyball area  more family friendly  most democratic and community-oriented What are your favorite features for this option? Responses included:  obstacle challenge course  better use of the existing golf course space for recreational activities  greater variety of recreational activities  expanded destination pool for year-round use  destination play area  adventure play area  expanded McClellan Ranch  Golf Course does not meet the future needs of the changing demographics in Cupertino, should be removed to reflect the needs of the next-generation  lap swimming  climbing structures and adventure course  more attractions for the youth 161 ONLINE MASTER PLAN ALTERNATIVES SUMMARY PAGE 3  Blackberry Golf Course is not environmentally friendly; so much water is used every day to get the grass green, and it is unnecessary with Deep Cliff Golf Course  fresh and new  multi-use sports fields  no single feature stands out, per se, but the variety of features in Option A best reflect the wide - but changing - demographics of Cupertino residents and what they will want or need in coming years  survival skills  walkways connecting McClellan Ranch to Blackberry Farm to Stevens Creek Blvd. Option B A total of 13% of participants identified Option B as their favorite design. Why is this design your favorite option? A B C I like the intensity of development in that option. 16% 50% 28% I like the park facilities and activities offered in that option. 87% 66% 35% Other responses included:  keep trees on golf course  keep existing golf course  golf course opened up for wider audience  no sports fields with lights  expanded community gardens  pasture land has inhospitable weeds and thistle, put good topsoil to better use with low impact use  multi-use sports fields are too much  Option A will generate excess traffic  pool facility is ok  Option B but with no golf course What are your favorite features for this option? Responses included:  removing the Blue Pheasant and putting in a more suitable facility to serve the families of Cupertino  love the adventure/nature unstructured play areas for children  new McClellan Rd. entry point and parking  nature and off-road bike play areas  new entrance off of Stevens Creek Blvd.  possible wedding venue (house-as-kitchen) of Option A  enhanced pool facilities  natural play areas  bike skills area 162 ONLINE MASTER PLAN ALTERNATIVES SUMMARY PAGE 4  medium density development a good compromise  Golf Course improvements  keeping characteristics of the existing site but making improvements with less intense development than Option A, but a quite a bit more improvement over Option C  improvements to the 4-H area (would like to see the bees included as in Option C)  improved access from Stevens Creek Blvd. without moving the pool  seasonal bridge/trail that runs on the west side of the creek, making a nice loop hike from McClellan Ranch  least amount of development, most open space/wooded areas of the three options 163 ONLINE MASTER PLAN ALTERNATIVES SUMMARY PAGE 5 Option C A total of 37% of participants identified Option C as their favorite design. Why is this design your favorite option? A B C I like the intensity of development in that option. 16% 50% 28% I like the park facilities and activities offered in that option. 87% 66% 35% Other responses included:  it doesn't disrupt the beauty of the park  most consistent with original vision for this corridor  leave the golf course, fix it  put money into fixing McClellan Ranch such as better trails, community garden etc.  take care of what is there now before doing anything else  retain the Blue Pheasant  it is a lovely park in its current form, pause to determine how the community reacts to it  least invasive to the wildlife in this corridor yet it still enhances the area  keep the golf course  limit the number of people and traffic in Oak Hill Porch area  the low intensity option is best for our community.  no vehicle access from Stevens Creek Blvd.  would like to see facility improvements focused on the already developed areas  would like increased habitat restoration throughout corridor  would like community gardens and nature play areas in other parts of town  FULL restoration of Stocklmeir  wait several years to see how new trail and environmental education center impacts visitor numbers before adding more development  this option has the least development and changes, from existing park  this option is the least offensive and there was no option to choose none of them, open space is extremely precious and you are replacing it  we have enough traffic burden on Stevens Creek Blvd.  we need more green area for the increasing residents, not less What are your favorite features for this option? Responses included:  creek and native plant restoration in areas that were not restored by Phase 1 & 2, particularly McClellan Ranch Preserve 164 ONLINE MASTER PLAN ALTERNATIVES SUMMARY PAGE 6  continuation of Stocklmeir orchard, use of land for farm and garden educational opportunities  restoration of historic buildings in McClellan Ranch  seasonal wetlands created in golf course, restoration and repair of golf course  community gardens need new fencing and plumbing  no picnicking - McClellan Ranch is a nature preserve, not a park, Blackberry Farm has a picnic area  change the area close to the Deep Cliff golf course into more of a park/natural area, with some overflow parking  there are already enough trails/footpaths in the park  current level of development best but with attention to historic Stocklmeir House and McClellan Ranch Barn  delighted by the restoration of the stream and ongoing native plant restoration and would like to see this expanded  care of already restored areas is a priority so Bermuda grass and other invasives don't take over again  picnic pavilion by Blackberry Farm area for year round use, provide shade in summer and protection from rain in winter  trail to McClellan from Scenic Circle on west side of the creek  improving existing facilities, like the McClellan Ranch barn  maintaining how the overall corridor felt many years ago  habitat restoration in the options, would like to see more of it in McClellan Ranch West and other less-used parts of the park  turning the Stocklmeir property into an educational- environmentally sustainable facility  support keeping the golf course  add "foot golf" to attract younger users as well  important to have facilities for all ages, and retired people are among those who love golf, it balances out the entire plan from a recreational standpoint  prefer emphasis on the more natural and historical aspects of Stevens Creek Corridor  do not agree that every opportunity of space has to be "development" or a "most used" scenario  believe Cupertino's development plan should actively preserve open space, especially in the environmentally sensitive corridor of Stevens Creek  strongly favor retention of the golf course in essentially its present form and footprint (pitch & putt / Option B would be a downgrade in desirability)  favor minimal additional development throughout the corridor  this is a unique area that can't be duplicated elsewhere in Cupertino, sports fields and other developed play areas (Option A) already exist in many city parks and other 165 ONLINE MASTER PLAN ALTERNATIVES SUMMARY PAGE 7 areas of Cupertino; no need to eliminate the unique amenities that already exist here in this large tract (e.g., golf course, natural open space) in order to just add facilities (sports fields, developed play areas) that are available in many neighborhoods throughout the city  retain the Blackberry Farm Golf Course in close to its current form  keep the changes as small as possible  Option A to turn the course into playing fields is too focused on a very limited age group.  Option B for a pitch & putt would be the worst use as it would just be a place for practice  lower costs and good use of existing facilities  minimal development  native plant and tree nursery, added trails, meadow restoration  this option seems to enhance access with minimum disruption of the natural beauty  new entrance to Blackberry Farm Park on Stevens Creek Blvd.  revamping the golf course  keep the Blue Pheasant, it is a land mark and has nice dinning  new irrigation system for the park and least environmental impact  Option A overhauls facilities not interested in using  sports fields would require a lot of maintenance  preserve remains protected  doesn’t include the north-south spine road.  limited access helps maintain the semi-rural feel of the area  Stevens Creek Corridor should remain a local Cupertino jewel, rather than make massive changes that drive lots of bay area traffic to the area for soccer games and other similar activities  the natural and wildlife areas are preserved more completely 166 ONLINE MASTER PLAN ALTERNATIVES SUMMARY PAGE 8 TOP CHOICES FOR PARK ELEMENTS Participants were given different options for three specific park elements in the three alternatives – Golf Course, Stocklmeir Ranch and Community Garden – and asked to select their top choice for each, even if their preferred option for one of the elements was not included in their favorite overall option. Golf Course Half of the participants chose “repair and enhance the existing golf course” as their top choice. That was followed by “build a new par 3, 9 hole, family style golf course” and “remove the golf course and build multi- use sports fields and sports courts.” 167 ONLINE MASTER PLAN ALTERNATIVES SUMMARY PAGE 9 Stocklmeir Ranch Nearly two-thirds of the participants chose “legacy farm with agricultural uses” as their top choice. That was followed by “special event venue with orchard garden park.” Community Garden Participants responded somewhat evenly to all three options. It is important to note that “reconfiguring the existing garden,” which had the highest percentage of responses, can be accomplished alongside “establishing new community gardens elsewhere in Cupertino,” which received the next highest percentage of responses. 168 ONLINE MASTER PLAN ALTERNATIVES SUMMARY PAGE 10 Play Participants were shown six images for Play Options and asked to select their two favorite options for each. Nature Play was the most popular option chosen, followed by Challenge Course, Outdoor Skills, Adventure Play, Bike Skills and Destination Play.

Over 150 open-ended, individual responses were collected. These responses were coded in order to investigate trends and potential areas where participants might have concerns. Since many of the responses touched on multiple aspects of the Master Plan options, 351 total comments were coded. A total of 21 categories emerged from the data, and these were further summarized into six broad categories:  Participants who preferred no changes to the Stevens Creek Corridor, for reasons such as cost and environmental maintenance,  Participants who preferred only minimal changes to the Stevens Creek Corridor, for reasons such as a desire to merely upgrade existing facilities to environmental maintenance,  Participants who addressed overall concerns with proposals for the Stevens Creek Corridor, for reasons such as lack of access, costs of upgrades, the impact of additional lighting and recreation facilities, safety and transit/parking/traffic concerns,  Participants who were quite unhappy with proposals for the Stevens Creek Corridor, for reasons such as a desire to start by fixing existing problems, dissatisfaction with all the proposals and those who felt like the public participation process was pointless or duplicative of previous efforts,  Participants who provided a range of suggestions for improvement to both the Stevens Creek Corridor and the Master Plan, such as expanding or improving trails, moving recreation opportunities to East Cupertino and reducing the built environment in the Stevens Creek Corridor, and  Participants who expressed overall satisfaction with the ideas and progress presented in the online open house. The following table and figure describe the prevalence of responses in each of the six categories: Preference for no changes Preference for minimal changes Expressions of overall concerns Displeasure with all proposals Suggestions Overall satisfaction 96 71 56 33 81 14 172 ONLINE MASTER PLAN ALTERNATIVES SUMMARY PAGE 14 173 ONLINE MASTER PLAN ALTERNATIVES SUMMARY PAGE 15 APPENDIX A Actual Responses The complete set of open-ended responses is presented below. None have been edited for spelling, grammar, or content but personal identifying information (name, address, telephone, email) has been removed. These are the comments coded into the six categories previously described.  Perhaps my previous comments should have been here. I am hugely encouraged by the studies and option presented. Well done. Not too keen on the ball field idea; and do we really need more trails around the golfing area? Seems like the new trail is enough? I hope you will make any new trails water permeable - new SC trail in Stocklmeir was presented to be crushed granite, but it didn't end up that way. Crushed granite is much easier on the feet.  I just want to say that the Stevens Creek Corridor needs to be tended to carefully. Please do not include items that do not work with a wildlife area. Let us leave a small footprint in this special area.  Reduce the golf course area and put more community garden plots there or simply convert the golf course to the additional wooded area.  Parcourse please. Also allow volleyball at lighted sport fields.  I did not choose any of the options. I believe the city should stop building out this area and maintain its current status as a golf course and nature area. Use the money for shuttle buses, crossing guards, and more security. Traffic is a major issue in this area without more people coming. Stevens Creek Blvd is still difficult to cross even with the new crosswalk. Crime, especially, home burglaries have increased in this neighborhood. Fix the current problems before spending money on enhancements that are not necessary or wanted.  No changes please  No changes  I have concerns regarding the extension of the Stevens Creek Trail through Cupertino. The new 2014 Stevens Creek Corridor maps depict that the Stevens Creek Trail will eventually cross over Stevens Creek Blvd and continue down Pharlap Dr. During the 2012 Sunnyvale Feasibility Study process there was discussion regarding running the Cupertino section of Stevens Creek Trail down Pharlap Dr. and then building a structure to get up to the Barranca/Maxine neighborhood. Through one of three one mile stretches, on streets in either Sunnyvale or Los Altos, to reach the Mt. View portion of the trail at Sleeper. The Cupertino SCT extension should instead utilize its, 2006 and 2011 Bike Transportation Plans, that city council unanimously approved to improve and upgrading existing infrastructure. One example of this would be the usage of Mary Ave in Sunnyvale to the fifteen million dollar Don Burnett bicycle pedestrian bridge (paid for by VTA, Cupertino and Sunnyvale funding) to Mary Ave in Cupertino, bike lane upgrades and routes to reach the Stevens Creek Corridor safely. The SCT usage at Shoreline on weekends can be upwards of 1000 bikers and pedestrians, more on FOSCT fundraiser days. If the SCT runs from Shoreline to McClellan Ranch through small isolated neighborhoods with hundreds of driveways and on narrow streets, it will bring increased neighborhood traffic due to bike commuters, bike enthusiasts groups, families biking and walking and runners. Thus increasing the possibility of car and bike/pedestrian interactions and accidents. Thank you, [name removed]  No changes. 174 ONLINE MASTER PLAN ALTERNATIVES SUMMARY PAGE 16  No need for additional pool. Would like expanded season for existing pool. The community garden could be expanded. Ideally, an additional garden and pool on the opposite side of town would eliminate traffic problems in the Stevens Creek corridor. Would like to see the golf course and club house updated and remodeled to include a nice restaurant. Construction of any new buildings should be architecturally similar to the buildings near the pool. A big NO for any sports complex/soccer field!!!  As a Cupertino resident with a child, I really like the recreation options presented in Plan A. I am a golfer, but do think it's a waste of money to redo Blackberry Farm golf course, especially given California's drought conditions right now and the number of golf courses available in the local area. However, I live VERY close by the Stevens Creek entrance. I would like to see how traffic would be managed with Plan A and how parking would be regulated in the Oakdell Ranch neighborhood. I also do NOT want the Stevens Creek trail coming through Phar Lap Drive.  Please find a way to keep the golf facilities in their current or enhanced form.  Without a cost basis, there is no way to determine which plan is best. However, money has already been allocated for the renovation of the golf course, so that option would seem to have the least financial cost of all of the plans. How is this financed? Is it through tax revenue or ballot initiative? If it is through tax revenue, how about lowering taxes that we are already paying rather than taking on an additional burden? Would the decision of which plan to go with be a ballot initiative or is it solely up to the city council? Once plan a, b, or c is approved, is there any consideration of the maintenance costs? The swimming pool alone is a huge investment, especially if you are talking about being open 365 days a year, which would be the purpose of a lap pool. Besides the maintenance issues, there needs to be a consideration of the number of additional employees required to run the various facilities that are recommended. Bottom line-PLAN C-minimum change and cost  None of the options are acceptable on their own. If someone in the City is pushing their own agenda then it needs to be made public. If the City is merely following the recommendations of MIG, then it appears MIG is pushing their own agenda, perhaps to financially benefit in some manner? Your failure to have a public meeting where individuals can publicly express their opinion looks bad. Seems you don't want to hear what the people really have to say because they might not say what YOU want to hear... which leads back to someone having a hidden agenda... :(  Don't add artificial things to the natural settings  I think it is important to have access from Stevens Creek to avoid access through the neighborhood.  I don't like the new parking access from McClellan. The road is so steep and narrow there and there are lots of kids who bike along the road to go to and from school. More traffic there makes that street much more dangerous. Definitely do NOT like the soccer fields or the recreation areas that look like an amusement park. It's such a beautiful natural space; let's not take that away from Cupertino.  Please stop this project, and complete the existing plan with no additional development.  More community gardens (here or elsewhere in city) only if city hires full-time staff to manage program.  Please protect and support the wildlife in the park! As it is, it's paradise for suburban nature lovers. If anything, we need more habitat restoration, rather than the development of sports fields or new 175 ONLINE MASTER PLAN ALTERNATIVES SUMMARY PAGE 17 trails. We need nature education, rather than large weddings. I would love to see the development of another alternative that addresses these issues. Thank you.  I am disappointed that we do not have a "none of the above" option. Any of the proposed alternatives would cause harm to the creek ecosystem and the wildlife. Please start over.  I have been talking with my neighbors at the Meadows, particularly the young families. Almost everyone said that they love the park just the way it is. It is a quiet trail, gets kids to school on bikes, gives residents a great place to walk/jog. Several neighbors were shocked to hear that the city wants to spend more money to bring more activities to the parks. They feel that our city parks have the ball fields, the Sports Center has courts, and De Anza has the pool used by swim teams, as do the high schools. By the way, the Meadows neighbors would like to see that the maintenance along our common fence line is taken care of. The dead trees are still in front of the Stocklmeir house and the ivy has not been taken off the oak trees along our fence line. A lot of money has been spent on the two parks and they are great! I would agree to money being spent to use the Stocklmeir house in some way, use the new house next to the parking lot, survey a use for the Simms property but adding a lot of new amenities is not called for at this time. I'd like to see more walkers, etc, using the trail to justify the need for more!  Q1: Option None. Pool: only the existing one  Thank you for soliciting input. All 3 options are tastefully done. This is a rare property which can continue to provide a window into what this piece of the valley was like many years ago... I'm hoping this can be preserved  Pool: What is wrong with existing pool? It just got a face lift that must have cost money. I am really fed up with being invited to air my opinion when decisions have already been made that I know nothing about - We voted to keep Blackberry Farm as is and we are still paying for it! Whose ideas was it to delete golf course and put in bocce ball? Do it at Memorial Park - We already have a problem with cars parking on Phar Lap. Can you imagine how many people would try to park there in order to use the new facilities being proposed? Who came up with options A+B - it certainly wasn't me - did you ask people who live around the area? What has happened about trail coming from S’vale to Cupertino? I attended meeting last year and I've heard nothing since!  Q1: Option D No Development. Q2 Golf Course: Remove Golf course and restore habitat, add hiking trails. The open house was very inadequate in soliciting feedback and opinions. Questions/concerns were cut off. This was pointless.  These all take funding and personnel that are NOT being provided for McClellan Ranch. It is in poor shape. Why try to do more when McClellan needs help?  It's pretty obvious someone in the city has a hidden agenda. Maybe the desire to pad their resume while looking for a city manager job. Treating the community like fools is damning. We investigate! Seriously? This is a joke, right? No Q&A? Politics!! Bad for Cupertino especially if it's made public.  Q2 Community Garden: No change to existing garden. Play: No new activity. Pool: No expansion of existing pool. I am amazed at the amnesia implied by this study. A decade ago, Cupertino had a massive community-wide visioning process (conveniently not mentioned by this presentation). The decision reached was that this corridor should emphasize nature and environment, and that automobile visits should be minimized. Now we have this study, the premise of which is that this corridor is available for any and all recreational activities. I totally disagree! This study is misguided, and the staff person who commissioned it should be called before the city council to explain this waste of money. 176 ONLINE MASTER PLAN ALTERNATIVES SUMMARY PAGE 18  I want an entrance from Steven Creek with parking. I live in East Cupertino. Very hard to get to Blackberry Farm or McClellan Ranch on a school day.  Q2 Stocklmeir Ranch: Both take money for maintenance. You can't just build it and then walk away. We have seen the sad results of neglect! Play/Pool: None because seasonal in use if not indoors. See front and please keep the Blue Pheasant! It provides a safe fun dance venue for this valley and thus serves a community that goes beyond Cupertino. Please have a heart on this. Our daughter and her husband and their two children live with us and all the play choices don't address safety bathrooms or gated areas for the toddler group. We also care for another grandchild during the week.  Would like the plan to preserve the natural landscape and wildlife. Do not turn it into a big city park. There are fewer areas that nature can be accessed easily.  Q2 Community Garden: (Also checked "Establish new community gardens somewhere else in Cupertino". Q2 Pool: Lap Pool open to residence only. No changes to park. Enjoy wildlife and nature as is! More people drives away the natural aspects of the rare site that we have in Cupertino.  Q1: Do not want any more use of the corridor at this time - no lights, no fields. Q2 Community Garden: put additional gardens on other side of town. Existing pool at Blackberry is underutilized. Another pool on the other side of town would be desirable  Q1: No action at this time. Q2 Golf Course: No change to the existing golf course. Q2 Play: No on this project. None on this project. Pool: None on this project. I hike the park as is. The changes that have been made should have a few year to be experience before we can make plan for any new project on this sight.  Q1: None of the above. Q2: Golf Course: Or no action. Stocklmeir Ranch: No. Play: None. Why no option for no action? Cost? Where is the cost discussion. Larger scope needed to view the entire community"  Q1: None of the above, No change except fix the sp. Q2 Community Garden: Maybe on "Establish new community gardens somewhere else in Cupertino". Play: Open Space, golf course as it is. I like what we agreed upon 7 years ago. Adopt what we agreed upon 7 years ago.  Wouldn't mind seeing a small special event venue. Absolutely would like to see historical interpretive signage along the trail and near historic sites. Preservation and utilization of historic sights would be ideal especially with an educational component.  Play: skateboard park. Add individual picnic areas to Blackberry Farm. Please make sure the Stevens Creek Trail project is integrated with this one. Option A is WAY too radical.  Q1: No action at this time.  Please keep as natural as possible - not too many signs  SCC should retain its natural - as per original rather than becoming overly fragmented and intentionally developed which would detract from much need focus on a nature/holistic experience. Over development would be serious detraction from the SCC unique contribution to an already over developed community. Natural no instruments focus < low intensity  Please do not remove the golf course in favor of a multiuse sport complex....we already support these activities but need more diverse activities and the green belt of a golf course continues to support the community. I feel that there are many options for soccer and other sports in the community but less for golf and other natural activities. We don't need more of the same. 177 ONLINE MASTER PLAN ALTERNATIVES SUMMARY PAGE 19  NONE - NO ACTION AT ALL!  NONE - NO ACTION AT ALL!  Q1: Leave as is. Q2 Golf Course: N/A Leave as is. Stocklmeir Ranch: N/A. Play: None of the above, None. Pool: None  Q2 Golf Course: Any chance of Deep Cliff G.C. becoming available? If so, would the city buy it? Community Garden: allow feral cats to control the rodent population.  Q1: Option D - SCCP Phase 3 - restoration of creek and riparian plant communities at McClellan Ranch Preserve - east and wet. Restoration and repair of ranch buildings. Q2 Golf Course: seasonal wetlands, replace over time with native plants. Community Gardens: eliminates wildlife habitat, violates MRP mission. Put garden plots in other areas of city. Play: None appropriate for wildlife corridor. Pool: Do not increase footprint of current pools. Q3: Prioritize restoration of McClelland Ranch creek and riparian plant communities. 2nd priority restore and repair historic buildings.  Q1: no development or very minimal, more minimal than option C. Q2: Community Garden: expand creek restoration efforts. Pool: none of the above. no additional pools. Q3: Building sports facilities with lighting will not only be disruptive to nearby residents, it will harm the well-being of over 130 bird, mammal, amphibian and reptile species documented by scientists within McClellan Ranch Park. Numerous studies have shown light pollution to be harmful to wildlife. This is a wildlife preserve and the wildlife need to be considered in the park design.  Q1: I really don't like any of them as a whole. This is a wildlife corridor!!! Q3: We need to keep the wildlife that live in this corridor at the top of the list. They deserve our utmost attention.  Q2 Play: Nature education and play areas. Q3: No playing fields requiring night lights. More loop trails with benches and meditation areas here and there.  Q2 Community Garden: Also checked "Establish new community gardens somewhere else in Cupertino". Q3: I would love to have this redesign to mesh well with a new Stevens Creek Corridor Trail.  Plan A with retaining Blue Pheasant  Q1: Intensity=attract people. No action south of Blackberry for people. Keep McClellan Reserve as a natural space. Q2 Stocklmeir Ranch: Maintain the Historical elements that made this "The Valley of Hearts Delight". Play: Minimal impact to the natural environment. Q3: Keep the development and active recreation in Blackberry. Preserve nature and minimize human footprint in McClellan.  Q2 Golf Course: Rough turf. Q3: Road off of Stevens Creek Blvd. is essential (tree lined). Stevens Creek blvd. entrance should be a "destination" with a youth-oriented restaurant (scrape the Blue Pheasant). "Walls" of redwood trees on borders next to homes that encroach visually into the corridor.  Q2 Community Garden: and smaller sized plots. Play: small. Q3: The golf course could be removed, but please no sports fields. The McClellan garden plots should be halved.  Prefer uses that do not attract large groups/crowds. Preserve "nature" feel of the park - retain some natural, undeveloped areas. 4H and community gardens provide worthwhile community uses.  Q2 Play: Nature. Pool: No change. Q3: There are few places where you can do recreational swim. There already are lap lanes at BBF. Keep unstructured play. There's a big pool at DeAnza. Golf - as 178 ONLINE MASTER PLAN ALTERNATIVES SUMMARY PAGE 20 courses disappear, BBF golf will be one of the few games in town. Golf could become more popular again and BBF golf be one of the few remaining. We need a wildlife corridor!!! NO NIGHT LIGHTS  How are these projects to be funded?  Q1: NONE. Q3: This whole exercise is probably a complete waste of time. We went through this several years ago and NOTHING HAPPENED and THERE WAS NO FEEDBACK  please start a true public process that would allow none of the above  The golf course needs improving/updating! More people/children would play. Social activity for adults.  Q1: (illegible) Option - Leave as is! Q3: Leave as is!  Q1: No action. Q3: We need to know more about the Stevens Creek trail impact. the community needs to know about what is available already before new plans developed.  Q2 Pool: Keep existing pool. Q3: This project needs to be coordinated with the Stevens Creek Trail (6 Cities) projects  Stevens Creek entrance? operating calendar for lap/masters swim  Q1: No action thank you, leave it alone. Q2 Golf Course: or remove the golf course and build habitat for deer. Play: none thank you, we use it for birding. Pool: none thank you. Q3: Please stop this process. Leave the area natural.  Year round swimming option would be great for local community.  Q2: SAVE $ DO NOTHING :)  Q2 Golf: "enhance" What is the meaning of the word. Q3: I don't need any of the above.  Trail is fantastic! What plans exist to extend the trail north and south?  I love to run and would really appreciate more loop trails and eventually a connection to the Stevens Creek Trail @ Mountain View. Thank you! I would also like the lap pool with year round access.  Please do not reduce the size of our golf courrse. Not enough time to review or think about options.  My favorite things about the Option A is the challenge course, destination play, and spray play. Option A is in my opinion the best Option!!!  No budget? No funding? No detail plans? Is not this more about the direction we want to move in, instead of a detailed choice?  Q1: Old people hate change but they'll also be dead soon (naturally. This is NOT a threat). People like me will be left behind. I'm only 18! Q2 Golf: Excuse me? What is a "family" golf course? No families golf. Only rich white men do, and frankly, golfing is not a sport. Sports require physical strain. What is strenuous about sitting in the back of a tiny go cart and being driven around? Play: Combine these please (challenge course and outdoor skills). Pool: I choose this one twice (sloped entry pool). Wow there are a lot of white people in Cupertino. Where do they hide? Old people (like the guy next to me) are no fun. 179 ONLINE MASTER PLAN ALTERNATIVES SUMMARY PAGE 21  Don't do anything.  Loop hiking trails through some of the hilly areas would be lovely. Volleyball that we can use after a rainstorm would be great. We always have to postpone games/practice b/c of rain on the field. I don't care about the deer; there a ton of deer in my neighborhood, too many. I want a lap pool! I would totally use that!  Q2 Golf: don't change. Q3: Keep minimal impact to neighborhood. Why did a lot of picture choices have so much fencing?  I would like to see involvement of community groups like the Historical Society, Quota, and Rotary.  Q1: As Is, Less is more! Q2 Stocklmeir Ranch: Restore habitat, plant native trees, etc. Community Garden: also establish new community gardens somewhere else in Cupertino. Play: fine as is. Pool: Fine as is. Q3: One of the best/special things about the area now are the wonderful (restored) natural areas. We don't have parks like that anywhere else in Cupertino, so we should preserve and enhance this unique aspect. Put new playgrounds, pools, etc. somewhere else.  Q1: Option D - No changes! Already too many man-made things - I'd like things removed. Q2 Golf Course: Eliminate golf and remove hideous chainlink fence/tunnel that's over the corridor. Stocklmeir Ranch: Leave it alone - leave as is. Community Garden: return existing garden let area go back to natural meadow - for deer. Play: None of these! Q3: Repeating here: I'd like to see fewer man made things - ie. eliminate golf and return to nature - no paths or anything.  Definitely need more accessible pools for fitness. Need to keep our wildlife habitats and open spaces.  Would LOVE to see a trail that goes from this new area (SC corridor), through McClellan, through Linda Vista Park and then all the way to the reservoir (with access to Stevens Creek & Fremont Preserve). This way we would be able to hike / bike from Stevens Creek Blvd all the way to the county parks. Please implement such trail ASAP; it's such a good idea....  Let's keep this place serene. Cupertino is an amazing city because it's a great mixture of residential, business, and natural landscape! Let's keep it that way!  Should take advantage of already new enhance  Having lived in the Santa Clara Valley for over 35 years, and being an avid outdoors recreation person, I am extremely disgusted with the length of time it takes to get anything accomplished. The Stevens Creek Trail is a perfect example, as is the length of time this project has been going on. Finish this completely in less than one year. Do it.  I bought my house in Monta Vista (not Cupertino at that time) and moved in May 15, 1974. I was a married man, aged 35, working as a nuclear physicist at the Lockheed Palo Alto Research Labs in the Stanford Industrial Park, since 1962. As a young man who was physically active my wife and I decided to take up the game of golf, since BBF Golf Course was right down Stevens Creek Blvd from our house. However, there were no organized beginners golf leagues at BBFGC at that time, so I and the new owners of the Blue Pheasant Restaurant, and a few others decided to form a beginners golf league for men and woman. The Blue Pheasant Hackers Golf League officially started in 1975, playing at BBFGC every Tuesday afternoon, tee times from 3:30PM to 6:00PM, starting first week in April through middle of October. Next year 2015 may be our 40th continuous year, depending on your decision to keep or not keep our beloved golf course. In the 1980's and early 1990's The BP Hackers Golf League, when I was president, had around 100 members. I had to restrict membership, in order to get off all the golfers during our allotted tee times. True, as our membership aged, members moved away, and demographics and Monta Vista/Cupertino changed, The BP Hackers 180 ONLINE MASTER PLAN ALTERNATIVES SUMMARY PAGE 22 Golf Club saw declining membership. I am the last original club member still playing every Tuesday during the league dates, and a few of us even play all winter, every Tuesday. Anyway, I just thought you planners of the future recreational facilities in the City of Cupertino should be aware of some of the history associated with our little nine-hole golf course at Blackberry Farm. It's a good facility people. It could be the home course for the next generation of young Cupertino golfers, if you would embrace it, and enhance it, as my generation tried to do in the past. I have talked to many professional golfers that have played BBFGC, and all (including a young Tiger Woods) have told me, "That's a very challenging, narrow little course, with a tough Par 29." Even the pros liked playing it, because it was good for developing their short game. So, I would vote for your Plan C or any plan for the future of Blackberry Farm Golf Course, that would retain the character of old Monta Vista with its little nine, Par 29. [name, contact information removed]  You guys did an excellent job on the newly expanded and current Stevens Creek Corridor Trail, keep up the good work! Thanks!  Removing the golf course would be a big mistake. Adding a potential high density recreation area would compromise the serenity of the area. If the golf course must be closed, then it would be best to return the area to a natural green belt. Besides isn't this area a flood plan?  You are spending a LOT of money to fix what is not broken.  Thank you for being innovative and designing a future Cupertino that is better for all residents  There already exist a number of sports field locations in Cupertino but the Stevens Creek corridor provides a unique opportunity to incorporate different activities and different development. Although there are obvious benefits to a vehicle access point from Stevens Creek Blvd, devoting a significant amount of space to a north-south spine road takes away from better options for use. In option C it does not make sense to provide a trail on the east side of the creek through the golf course. There is already a trail on the opposite side and a new trail would simply take away from the golf course.  Please don't dumb down the golf course to make it more "family friendly”! Also, is there any possibility of adding an off leash area for dogs within the park?  Keep it as a nature park not amusement city!  I repeat here my firm opposition to high, or even medium, intensity development in this corridor. Most of the staff-proposed development elements are out-of-place in this corridor and should more properly be considered for other locations, if they are needed at all. There seems to be very little justification presented for why most of the development elements included in the three alternatives are needed. What is the overall background situation and the resulting strategy being proposed/pursued? Also, I would be interested to see/hear cost and schedule estimates for completion of each of the three alternatives.  We don't think the Stevens Creek Corridor Master Plan options are necessary or cost-effective. Why spend tax dollars needlessly? The majority of Cupertino residents are older people who will not use these "upgraded" facilities and do not wish to pay for them. Please bring some common sense back to city government.  Put a community garden at the Quinlan center and restore a orchard on this property. I was living in Cupertino when the Quinlan Center was built and the city put in sod rather than drought tolerate landscaping. I pointed out to Don Brown who was the City Manager at the time that sod takes water and we were in a drought that year. Don stated that the City is staying at the water usage limit. 181 ONLINE MASTER PLAN ALTERNATIVES SUMMARY PAGE 23 It would have been better leadership for the City to not put in sod and demonstrate to residents that City Management is leading the way to better water and land use. I suggest that we add another community garden in Cupertino and locate it at the Quinlan Center.  Great idea. Looking forward to seeing similar initiatives in the East side of Cupertino which is lacking in recreational facilities.  The northern section with the golf course is a relatively unspoiled area, filled with native plants and wild critters. Have you seen the hawks? Please leave it as undeveloped as possible but give more consideration to golf programs for seniors and juniors. Perhaps improvements to the patio (trees are gone), the entrance and the teaching area could be considered.  Again, McClellan Ranch is designated, and should remain, a nature preserve. The community gardens and 4H were included in the original property grant. Otherwise, the preserve should only be restored to its natural sustainable condition. Park-like activities can take place in BlackBerry Farm.  The neighboring residents enjoy the peace and quiet of the existing layout. Can you imagine having sports leagues playing on lighted fields almost every hour of the day and evening? It is easier to find an athletic field than it is to find a classic nine-hole golf course where you can take your grand kids. Golf promotes family values and is a lifelong recreational activity. Please save Blackberry Farm Golf Course and its mix of par 4 and par 3 holes. Thank you.  I like the idea of green house nursery for native plants in plan C. I can students learning and participating in habitat preservation program.  Please leave the Stevens Creek Corridor as is. It is perfect now, let's keep it that way.  Adamantly against a sports complex replacing the golf course and vehicle access from Stevens Creek. Preserve the beauty and unique integration with people and nature that the MV area provides.  No more junk in the corridor. We don't want or need a lot if junk or a major metropolis in the corridor.  Reduce car parking spaces and improve bike and pedestrian access to the facility from adjacent neighborhoods.  Scrape the Blue Pheasant, and build a restaurant that would cater to active young people - huge deck for morning coffee and outdoor dining; music late into the evening. At least two wedding venues near the Stocklmeir house (one venue could be a multipurpose)  Cupertino has many other parks that could benefit from the proposed development ideas, but the Stevens Creek Corridor is quite simply the wrong place. Keep the Stevens Creek Corridor natural, do not fragment and degrade it with new trails, parking, roads, and new sport and recreation facilities.  The Santa Clara Valley was once a beautiful, natural valley. Please leave the creek as it is for the last remaining bits of wildlife left. Riparian environments are critical and should remain untarnished for posterity. Don't ruin it. Just say no to the developers.  I like the balance of nature and recreation now, and would like to finally see NO construction in the park for some time. 182 ONLINE MASTER PLAN ALTERNATIVES SUMMARY PAGE 24  There is sufficient developed areas within and surrounding Cupertino already. We need more natural outdoor areas, for walking in peace and quite and enjoying nature. Why is there not an additional option to leave the area in its present state for both residents and wildlife?  No new roads, no new trails, no new bridges over the Stevens Creek. Plan and devote the park & Rec resources on already approve plans and bring them to completion. Allow us the residents to enjoy and observe their impact on dwindling wildlife habitat before we can look at ANY new proposal for recreation & development.  less development in corridor is better as we are overdeveloped already  I'm flexible, and appreciate the work it took so far - thank you! I'm flexible, and appreciate the work it took so far - thank you! But there are two items that I dislike intensely: the daytime/nighttime athletic fields, plus the wedding/special events venue. Too much traffic, too many people. I'm afraid these would change the character of the park.  I don't see why one swimming pool can't accommodate many different uses (lap swimming, play, therapeutic uses). Schedule for different users at different hours. I chose none of the play options because they seem inappropriate for the corridor. I think adventure play, nature play and the other options can go in other more developed parks. Get rid of stupid artificial ponds at Memorial Park. Replace with natural habitat parks or something else. The old wooden town that was there in the past could be replaced and would be a much used adventure play structure. As population grows we will need the corridor as a quiet open space for hiking, dog walks, picnicking, family nature activities, etc. If the area is more developed for active sports and more is shoe-horned into this land, the wildlife and atmosphere that now make the area so pleasant and delightful will be destroyed. Save the money that would go into this development and set it aside to buy more open space if and when it becomes available.  In my opinion the plan that replaces the golf course with sports fields is too much development for that part of Cupertino. The fields call for lights, which would be too bright in a residential area. Also, having the Stocklmeir property expanded to include event space like weddings is just too much development. I am concerned that the intersection of Phar Lap and Stevens Creek would become much more dangerous with the increase in traffic. In addition, having playing fields draws a lot of people who are from outside the areas. I appreciate all the options you have offered. I still think Option B is the best mix of preservation and development.  Retaining the most natural open space with minimal impacts offers important open space to people as well as the wild birds and animals that depend on these areas for habitat. In an increasingly developed society, it is especially to have accessible open for people to enjoy as well.  I would really like to see an option which focuses on completing and improving what we already have. I think Cupertino is fortunate to have a natural and peaceful place such as the Stevens Creek Corridor areas that work to protect wildlife. It seems unfortunate that all the plans are for increased development.  For me the critical aspect of this development is the long-term provision of a bicycle commute corridor all the way from McClellan road to northern section of the Stevens Creek Trail. Ideally it would be good to have some form of separation between bicycles and pedestrian traffic, as this is a critical artery for commuting to the high-tech areas around Sunnyvale / Mountain View. Over the past few years, I have been seeing increasing bicycle traffic on the northern part of Stevens Creek trail, and I believe that in the long term we need to plan for traffic separation. Thanks you for all your great work - I have not responded to the specific questions about the park, as I'm only an occasional (but grateful) user! 183 ONLINE MASTER PLAN ALTERNATIVES SUMMARY PAGE 25  Can't wait for the new environmental center to be completed! This area is fabulous for connecting people with nature- must carefully balance bringing in more visitors and maintaining natural/undisturbed areas.  We have the opportunity to protect the natural setting of the creek corridor for one of the important natural creeks in Santa Clara County. Please do not add sports field, more development, etc. Please provide a plan to keep a natural setting for the creek and for the wildlife of this area. Thank you.  The community should not support these projects because it will destroy habitat that is utilized by wildlife. The community does not need more development for recreational activities.  Focus on completing and improving what we already have. No new roads and trails; no new sport and recreation features; no new bridges over the creek. Protect wildlife. Keep the Stevens Creek Corridor safe, peaceful, and natural  One big negative comment for all plans: it's a mistake to put McClellan Ranch West parking lot entrance at the blind curve of McClellan Road (accidents waiting to happen with fast/unseen downhill traffic).  I prefer any option that entails the least environmental impact. The lesser the amount of concrete used, the better.  Re: Golf course. Existing course is in harmony with adjacent natural areas. Landscape it with native plants, leave it as is, with water saving irrigation. Re: Kids play areas, kids go to the creek, and play with existing sticks, playing in dry leaves. Leave nature areas as it is. Re: Pools. The pools were just renovated! Adapt them for lap swimming and kid play, both! Save your money, wait for the golf course across from McClellan to sell, then develop that as more parkland.  Am most concerned that a long-time golf course will be gone...hopefully the community will support the golf course and keep it with improvements. It has been enjoyed by many from Cupertino and outlying cities for many, many years and is a gem!  What's the difference between nature play, adventure play, challenge play, and destination play? Can't kids just figure out how to enjoy the trails, pools, the farm animals and the bit of grass playing field that's there now?  All three plans mention enhancements to the 4-H area. I have lots of ideas for this space. What is the best way to submit them for consideration? [name, contact info removed]  I would like to see a more extensive survey where we can provide input for each of the areas of the corridor. I did not fill out parts of this questionnaire because I did not know the context in which my opinion mattered. Would it be nice to see nature playgrounds in Cupertino? Sure, but the playground I know of near Blackberry Farm is quite sufficient (and in fact, rather new). Also, how would traffic be affected by these changes? What are your estimated costs? Environmental groups have expressed concerns with these plans--how have you addressed those issues?  I chose NO Nature Play or any options which increase park usage density. Increased traffic of any kind will drive away the wildlife. The existing Golf course has proven very compatible usage with existing wildlife for 50 years. Though converting one swimming pool to lap swim may help a bit, De Anza College & our High Schools combined have plenty existing unused pool capacity to satisfy all Lap Swimming needs, PLUS enough unused playing field capacity to satisfy those needs with addition of field lights to extend usage. ANY Further development which will increase pedestrian & wheeled traffic in Steven's Creek Corridor WILL scare away existing wildlife crucial to current school nature programs taught there which can only be taught there: since all other city parks are developed, 184 ONLINE MASTER PLAN ALTERNATIVES SUMMARY PAGE 26 they drive out wildlife. The Least Change and Traffic is best to both keep and encourage more wildlife.  Thank you for work completed on the Stevens Creek trail and corridor Stocklmeir through McClellan Ranch, as well as improvements in Blackberry Farm over the last 10 years. It is a good community accomplishment and asset. I believe Cupertino as a community is already impacted by development in many areas resulting in higher density businesses, housing and traffic. I do not care for overdevelopment of private home lots; maximizing with largest possible homes in "single-family" neighborhoods. Thus, I believe an important component of future "development" and an opportunity in Cupertino is a conservation and naturalized area maintained and promoted in the Stevens Creek corridor. This goes hand in hand with low-impact, conservative development. Of special concern to me, and which I've not heard as a point of discussion, is the very tentative survival of natural steelhead trout in Stevens Creek. Although, it's possible the remnant creek no longer offers sustainable habitat for these native fishes, I would like see programs at McClellan Ranch as a "preserve" to be developed as a regional focal point for such a conservation effort. Thank you.  The Stevens Creek riparian corridor is our jewel. Our emphasis should first be on doing no additional harm by further fragmenting the corridor and adding facilities.  Enhance the golf for seniors and juniors. Provide more shade around golf course wait area.  I don't understand why the city wants to take this wonderful nature preserve and turn it into an urbanized recreational area. We need to find other sites in the city for sports fields!  I couldn't even vote for any of these. I really wish you would leave the area as it is. Isn't there someplace else you could waste all that money? Don't spend money to destroy the very little open space we have left. Please. Development like this is not easily reversed. These plans will have long- reaching consequences. In a county that prides itself on being "green", your plans sure seem off the mark.  Option C is the best option allowing the continuation of existing open space and the golf course. Also, the Sims property should not be converted into a hard surface parking lot. It should be left as open space to compliment McClellan Ranch Park. Blackberry Farm is the only truly nature open space in Cupertino and should be left as is with minor improvements. To add sports courts and specific play areas other than the existing children’s play ground would distract from the ultimate goal of keeping the park as a nature preserve. This is important for our current and future citizens of Cupertino to have a place that is reminiscent of a natural environment for all to enjoy. Thank You.  Why isn't Alternative D under consideration?  How come none of the pictures were of a person alone surrounded by nature -- why only various flavors of development? The city should look at the economics of operating the golf course, and if it seems the benefit does not justify the cost, consider allowing it to revert to a more natural environment. This should be a place for enriching the soul by contact with nature, not a place for developed recreational activities that could be done in any park.  Don't build new facilities and features in the name of recreational use; invest in the access and appreciation of the natural environment and preserving and appreciating its natural state.  The options provided here do not reflect my own desires for leaving this as is. This belongs to a survey like; 1. have you stopped weekly beatings of your wife? 2. Have you stopped daily beatings of your wife? 3. Have you stopped occasionally beating your wife? You must answer one. 185 ONLINE MASTER PLAN ALTERNATIVES SUMMARY PAGE 27  IT IS A BEAUTIFUL NATURAL PARK NOW. YOU WANT TO DESTROY IT ? LEAVE IT AS IT IS. WHO AM I ? I'M A FORTY-PLUS YEARS RESIDENT OF CUPERTINO. I WALK FOR ENJOYMENT FOUR TO FIVE TIMES EACH WEEK.  I would like to see the golf course converted to a nature preserve with native plants and oak trees. I do not wish to see the city spend additional money renovating the golf course especially since there has been a steady decline in the number of golfers using it. I do not want the city to throw good money after bad. IF there must be a golf course, then it must be redesigned to meet highest sustainability standards compatible with wildlife habitat. I am completely opposed to the plan to reorient the golf course and build a driveway from Stevens Creek to the pool complex. I do not want to see any part of the preserve paved over - that land will be lost to wildlife forever. I am also strongly opposed to the loop path into the riparian peninsula area. Leave wildlife ALONE! I am neutral to the idea of a nature play area by the Simms property provided it is designed with a small footprint compatible with a preserve. As I have stated before, I do not wish to turn the preserve into a park. The city has plenty of neighborhood parks to meet those needs. There is no need to expand the Community Garden - just use what we have efficiently...maybe reduce plot size to accommodate more users.  The Stevens Creek Trail should include bicycle traffic. The original plan was for bike access on the trail from the beginning. All other Stevens Creek Trail sections have bike access, the Cupertino section should not be the exception. There is no acceptable reason to exclude cyclists from the trail.  I favor a multi-use pool development at the existing site in Blackberry Farm. Please maintain the relaxed atmosphere throughout the corridor, and if anything make it more so.  This park is very nice now but could use some improvements. The pool and new irrigation on the course are my top desires.  Keep the area for wildlife, nature experiences, picnicking, and reflection with a touch of swimming and golf.  I am a long time Cupertino resident and I just hear about this today, when comments are do. The city needs to do a better job of letting folks know this is going on.  Please DON'T expand the community gardens. Subdivide plots (they are huge) if necessary, but more important, put community gardens on the east side of Cupertino, especially near where the denser housing is and will be. Please DON'T add new "features" (even "nature play") to McClellan Ranch Nature Preserve.  Please DON'T add uses that significantly increase parking requirements. If more parking is needed, put it at the Stevens Creek Blvd. entrance. Possibly add some unpaved overflow parking for McClellan Ranch in McClellan Ranch West. The best entrance there is the current one, with the best sight lines for crossing McClellan Road. Please consider the Audubon Society's Option D, except I do like access to the "peninsula". Please add NEITHER trail nor road between creek and golf course. Changing the nature of the golf course is okay, but sports fields are totally out of place. Avoid new permanent bridges over the creek.  Sorry, I already did this once, but I want to add: Thanks very much for the paved Stevens Creek Trail through McClellan Ranch, but please pave no other trails there.  STRONGLY oppose a new driveway thru the golf course. We should not be building more roads along the creek bank. It also may create queuing problems we do not currently have for vehicles that exit onto Byrne Ave. Getting out onto Stevens Creek Blvd. will be difficult with all the cross traffic 186 ONLINE MASTER PLAN ALTERNATIVES SUMMARY PAGE 28 there. If a signal is added then cars will back up on the new driveway along the creek. There are also wildlife impacts. I would support the short option B golf course if it is run from the north end like the current golf course and there is no driveway through the golf course. That should have been an option. Stocklmeir would be OK as option a or b or c. Consider fixing the house and front yard for rentals and events AND operating the rest of the site as a legacy farm. At McClellan Ranch West, keep the parking lot minimal, use the site mostly for habitat and environmental education. A native plant nursery would be fine. At the pool area at Blackberry Farm, like the spray play idea plus a lap pool. Definitely keep it open year round! This was not an option but I would also very much support converting the golf course to habitat and open space with a trail through it.  I think it's a good idea to build multi-use sports facilities that can be used by more of the community. The golf course is a lot of space that very few people use.  Please keep the Stevens Creek / Blackberry Farm wild and open. The City of Cupertino has many great tradition lawn and playground parks but only one park like Stevens Creek. I walk this park 4 times a week and enjoy seeing the deer, hawks, rabbit and of course squirrel. Please consider low or no development. Thanks, [name removed]  No plan is good plan for now  We have more than enough parks, what we need it more open spaces to promote biological diversity in the area.  Hate option c, it is completely inappropriate near the creek. Option B idea of a smaller shorter golf course would be okay, but the new road from Stevens Creek Blvd is unacceptable, it does not belong in the creek corridor. The smaller golf course would be fine if you still run it from the current parking and access at Stevens Creek Blvd. A new restaurant that serves golfer a and pro shop would also be fine if it stays near the current Blue Pheasant vicinity. Option C is the best because the current features are working well, just fix all the old and historic structures for continued use. Please focus on prioritizing wildlife habitat, the wildlife cannot go anywhere else but playgrounds, fields, community gardens can all go somewhere else. Do not add new things even trails anywhere that will impact wildlife. Would like to have the maximum habitat restoration possible. The creek and it's wildlife is a fantastic and irreplaceable resource.  This Natural Wildlife park needs NO more structured play areas; they belong in other parks. Redeveloping and modernizing the existing swimming pools and their snack bar, dressing & restroom facilities for YEAR ROUND USE while staying WITHIN Their EXISTING Footprint is sorely needed, along with partnering with High School & De Anza College existing pools to offer more lap swimming before school & work days begin, and any after school/work times and on weekends when these other pools and are unused. Similarly, working with all local schools to extend use of their currently not fully utilized playing fields with lighting until 8PM: should solve any shortage of playing fields. 187 Parks & Recreation Commission Recommendations Stevens Creek Corridor Master Plan Meeting Date: 01/8/15 Page 1 LOCATION COMMISSIONER Paulsen COMMISSIONER Fung COMMISSIONER Tambe COMMISSIONER Wilson Stocklmeir Property Stocklmeir buildings and garden Support “low key” house restoration with history aspect with associated meeting venue Support “low key “house restoration with history aspect with associated meeting venue Support events center with catering kitchen Support events center with catering kitchen Legacy Farm Support Support Support Support Bridge Support pedestrian and light vehicle bridge Oppose new bridge if event center is located by golf course Support new bridge if event center in Stocklmeir.

Recommended Action 1. Approve an exception to the 995 rule for one Temporary Employee. 2. Approve a budget adjustment of $52,390 resulting in increased appropriations for the City Manager and City Attorney budgets of $26,195 respectively. Discussion Per Cupertino’s Administrative Rules and Regulations of the Personnel Code, Temporary Employees (Attachment A) —defined as employees “appointed on an ‘as needed’ basis for work which is anticipated to be of a temporary or intermittent nature either on a full-time or part-time basis”—may not work more than 995 hours in a fiscal year, unless they are terminated and reinstated after a 13 week break in service. This is also known as the “995 rule.” This rule was put in place to limit the City’s costs related to retirement and other benefits. Per the California Public Employees Retirement System (CalPERS), if a part-time employee exceeds 1000 hours of service in a fiscal year, the part-time employee becomes a CalPERS eligible member and the City and Employee must begin contributing toward their retirement. Once an employee becomes a CalPERS member, they are always a member, meaning that every time this part-time employee works for the City, the City would be required to contribute towards their retirement. In addition, with passage of the Affordable Care Act it is likely that temporary employees working 30 or more hours per week will also be eligible to receive medical benefits, adding another layer of cost for temporary employees. Given the additional costs associated with having an employee exceed the 995 rule, the City has strictly enforced this policy. Supervisors who have failed to comply with the 255 2 policy have been disciplined in the past. Past practice dictates that any exception to this policy must be approved by the City Council prior to the employee exceeding the 995 max given the fiscal implications. The City Attorney and City Manager’s Office are requesting an exception to the 995 rule for Temporary Employee Louis Sarmiento, classified as an Assistant to the City Manager. Louis is close to reaching the 995 max. The request for extension is for 5 months of additional full-time work through June 30, 2015. Both offices are requesting that an exception be granted so that Louis can continue to work with the City Manager and City Attorney’s Office on special projects. The departments will split the additional hours allocated 50/50. Louis is expected to work on the following projects and tasks: - Review and update the provisions of the Cupertino Municipal Code to ensure compliance with California and Federal codes, rules, and regulations and best practices, - Revise City contract templates, which would make contract creation and the process of entering into contractual relationships more efficient and reduce risk to the City, - Update administrative policies and procedures for compliance with California and Federal law and requirements, and - Track, analyze and review litigation and legislation for applicability to Cupertino and advise City departments. Explanation These projects require institutional knowledge, including a familiarity with existing codes, policies and procedures. These, and ancillary projects, also require the ability to understand distinctions between legal requirements and policy goals, and an understanding of interdepartmental operations. There is a City need for continuity and completion of these projects. An interruption in work, seeking outside counsel, hiring new staff, or orientating another staff member without Louis’ experience and institutional knowledge would hinder progress and be costly to the City. Louis has worked on these projects, has experience in the City Attorney’s Office, City Manager’s Office, and other public entities, and is an attorney. 256 3 Fiscal Impact The City’s total costs for Louis’ employment year to date are $45,163. Louis will be classified as a Deputy City Attorney at Step 2, resulting in additional salary and benefit costs of $52,389. For a total fiscal year cost of $97,552 as illustrated below: Salary and Benefit Categories Rate ATCM/DCA First 995 Hours (Step 1 of Asst To CM) 840 Hours ( thru 6/30/15) (Step 2 of Dep City Attny) Total Costs for FY2014-15 Salary $46.32/$49.84 $43,955 $41,866 $85,821 Benefits Medicare 1.45% $637 $668 $1,305 PARS $571 0 $571 Retirement 23.539% 0 $9,855 $9,855 TOTAL COSTS $45,163 $52,389 $97,552 Both the City Attorney and City Manager’s Office are requesting a budget adjustment of $26,195 for a total of $52,389 in increased costs to the general fund to cover the increased costs.

Description The City currently has identified one modification to the OE3 MOU to change the eligibility requirements for Catastrophic Leave for OE3 members. Discussion The City’s Catastrophic Leave program allows active employees to donate unused vacation and compensating time off hours to a catastrophic leave bank. The bank is available to employees facing a serious illness that have exhausted their leave hours. All requests are evaluated by the City’s Catastrophic Leave Committee made up of active employees and requires medical verification. In 2013, City staff met with bargaining groups to negotiate a change to the City’s Catastrophic Leave policy that would allow employees still on probation to access the program. The change was made in the City’s Administrative Rules and Regulations and subsequently in the MOU between the City and the Cupertino Employees’ Association (CEA). The MOU between the City and OE3, however, was not amended to reflect the agreed upon change. The current discrepancy means that CEA and Unrepresented probationary employees are eligible to apply for Catastrophic Leave hours but OE3 employees on probation are not. Staff recommends correcting this oversight and making the policy consistent for all benefited employees. We have discussed this change with OE3 and they concur with the proposed amendment. Fiscal Impact No fiscal impact is anticipated. 260 ___________________________________ Prepared by: Jaqui Guzmán, Acting Human Resources Manager Reviewed by: Kristina Alfaro, Director of Administrative Services Approved for Submission by: David Brandt, City Manager Attachments: A - Draft Resolution B - Side Letter to OE3 MOU (Re: Section 14.12 - Catastrophic Leave) 261 RESOLUTION NO. 15- A RESOLUTION OF THE CITY COUNCIL OF THE CITY OF CUPERTINO ADOPTING SIDE LETTER NO. 1 AMENDING THE MEMORANDUM OF UNDERSTANDING BETWEEN THE CITY OF CUPERTINO AND THE OPERATING ENGINEERS LOCAL NO. 3 UNION, AFL-CIO WHEREAS, a meeting has been held over a proposal concerning eligibility for the City’s catastrophic leave policy between representatives of the City of Cupertino and of the Operating Engineers Local No. 3 Union, AFL-CIO; and WHEREAS, the agreement mutually obtained through these meetings has been recorded in a Side Letter to the Memorandum of Understanding to be signed by both parties, which has been submitted to the City Council for approval, BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED that the City Council of the City of Cupertino hereby adopts Side Letter No. 1 to the Memorandum of Understanding for the period of July 1, 2013 to June 30, 2016, between the City of Cupertino and the Operating Engineers Local No. 3 Union, AFL-CIO attached and incorporated as Attachment B.

Catastrophic Leave The City’s Catastrophic Leave program allows active employees to donate unused vacation and compensating time off hours to a catastrophic leave bank. The bank is available to employees facing a serious illness that have exhausted their leave hours. All requests are evaluated by the City’s Catastrophic Leave Committee made up of active employees. In 2013, the City met and conferred with Bill Pope and the OE3 shop stewards on a policy change to the Catastrophic Leave policy. The labor/management team verbally agreed to allow employees still on probation to access the program. The change was made in the City’s Administrative Rules and Regulations and the MOU between the City and the Cupertino Employees’ Association (CEA). Inadvertently, however, the change was never documented in writing or changed in the OE3 MOU. This discrepancy means that Unrepresented and CEA probationary employees are eligible to apply for Catastrophic Leave hours but OE3 probationary employees are not. City has discussed correcting this oversight with the OE3 negotiating team to make the policy consistent for all benefited employees. Both parties agree to allow all benefited employees to be eligible to apply for Catastrophic Leave benefits. Attached is a redlined excerpt of the OE3 MOU - Section 14.12: Catastrophic Leave which shows the proposed change (Exhibit A). This side letter agreement shall be effective retroactive to 12:01 a.m. January 1, 2015.

This committee will evaluate each individual case when it is submitted to qualify to receive financial assistance. The only limitation is that the employee must be the one facing the illness. The committee has the right to ask the applicant to submit further documentation from the treating physician to determine the applicant’s eligibility for catastrophic leave hours. Vacation hours and compensatory time off (CTO) hours are the only leave of absence credits which may be donated in any pay period. A leave of absence transfer drive will be held whenever necessary to provide for a minimum catastrophic leave bank balance of 40 hours. Upon retirement or resignation, an employee can contribute up to 10 hours of sick leave provided that the employee has a minimum of 320 hours of sick leave, which has previously become vested. All benefited employees who have passed initial probation with the City will be eligible to receive assistance. An employee does not have to be a contributor to be eligible. An employee or their representative must complete a prescribed application form together with supporting medical documentation to the Personnel Officer when applying for funds. A recipient must have used all of their available leave hours before he/she is eligible. The maximum amount is two months (LTD becomes available at this time). 264 CITY OF CUPERTINO Legislation Details (With Text) File #: Version:115-0648 Name: Status:Type:Consent Calendar Agenda Ready File created:In control:1/28/2015 City Council On agenda:Final action:2/3/2015 Title:Subject: Re-advertise for two vacancies on the Technology, Information, and Communications Commission (TICC) with full terms ending January 2019 Sponsors: Indexes: Code sections: Attachments:Staff Report A - Resolution No. 10-048 advisory commissions Action ByDate Action ResultVer.

Recommended Action Approve a Second Amendment to an Agreement between the City of Cupertino and the Gilbane Building Company increasing the contract compensation by $344,489 for a total amount not to exceed $1,478,489.00 and for an additional term of approximately 12 months, from the date of expiration of the First Amendment through March 31, 2016. Description In July 2013 Council approved an agreement with Gilbane Building Company (Gilbane) to provide construction management (CM) services for multiple capital improvement projects for an amount not to exceed $1,134,000. The term of the agreement ends on March 31, 2015. As of this time, Gilbane has provided CM services for six projects that are either complete or under construction. Another two projects are included in the current agreement to be started. The term of the contract must be extended to complete the project work currently underway and the remaining two projects that are yet to start construction. Aside from extending the contract for the current projects included in the agreement, staff recommends adding seven more projects that are planned to start and complete construction within the next year. Background In accordance with City practices, staffing for the City is maintained at a lean level. The City relies on external resources to augment the city staff when needed. The capital improvement program has increased in the number of active projects, exceeding the capability of internal staff to cover all aspects of project management. 272 The CIP for fiscal years 2012/13 and 2013/14 included numerous projects that were funded for design and construction and the FY 2014/15 CIP budget added more projects. A couple of the projects have been completed and several of the projects have progressed to the construction stage or will within the next year. Anticipating the need for these services, staff completed a qualifications-based consultant selection process in February 2013. In response to a Request for Qualifications, the City received seven Statements of Qualification from firms within the Bay Area, which were evaluated for relevant skills and experience. The three top- ranked firms were invited to interview. Based on the interviews, the Gilbane Building Company was selected to provide the construction management services based on relevant experience, depth and breadth of skills, accessibility of the firm, and knowledge of the local construction market. Under the authority of the Director of Public Works, an advance agreement with Gilbane was approved and executed in May 2013, in order to provide the pre- construction services needed for the Stevens Creek Corridor & Park-Phase 2 and the Environmental Education Center & Blacksmith Shop Relocation projects. In July 2013 Council approved the first amendment to this agreement to provide CM services for multiple projects. To date, the firm has provided CM services for six projects that are either complete or under construction. Staff has found Gilbane to be very competent, thorough, and responsive in providing the needed services to the City, and that as such they are providing value to the citizens. The term of the current amended agreement ends on March 31, 2015. Two of the projects have not started construction. Discussion Construction management services continue on several of the projects authorized under the current agreement. Therefore the term of the current agreement must be extended in order for Gilbane to complete the services anticipated under the agreement and for the City to have the needed expertise to oversee the construction contracts. Staff recommends continuing to engage Gilbane to provide CM services for multiple projects over the next fourteen months, including to add seven more projects to the agreement that are anticipated to start and complete construction within that timeframe. All of the projects proposed to be added to the agreement are currently funded in FY 2014/15. The budgeted funds for all of these capital projects include allocations for construction management, so no additional funding is required for additional compensation for Gilbane. Using a single firm to provide this needed service for multiple projects is efficient. Staff has negotiated an amendment to the current agreement that adds seven projects to the scope of services. Under this proposed amended agreement, CM services for most of 273 the capital construction projects funded by the CIP budget in fiscal years 2012/13, 2013/14, and 2014/15 would be performed by Gilbane. Under the proposed Second Amendment of the Agreement, the consultant will perform the day-to-day contract management for the projects listed below:  Stevens Creek Corridor & Park-Phase 2 – Project Completed  Dog Park – Project Completed  Environmental Education Center & Blacksmith Shop Relocation (including Outdoor Gathering Shelter, McClellan Ranch Park Restroom & Access Upgrades, Solar PV System) – Project under Construction  Service Center Solar Project – Project under Construction  Sport Center Project: Retaining Wall Replacement – Project under Construction  Quinlan Community Center Interior Upgrades – Project under Construction  Sports Center Project: West Side Court Improvements  Monta Vista Storm Drain New Projects  Portal Park – Collins Sch. Cricket Pitch/Batting Cage Replacement  Wilson Park – Bleacher Shade & Ball Protection Fence Project  Wilson Park – Building & Landscape Improvement  Monta Vista Rec. Ctr. – Pre-School Play Area Improvements  McClellan Ranch – Pedestrian, Parking, Landscape Improvements  Senior Ctr. – Exercise Room Wood Floor Replacement  Bubb Rd. Storm Drain Improvements Staff has included an Additional Services amount so that the scope of services may be adjusted on a project-by-project basis in response to actual project conditions. Subject to Council approval of the Second Amendment to an Agreement between the City of Cupertino and the Gilbane Building Company, the term of the agreement will be extended by twelve months to March 31, 2016, and the maximum compensation will be increased by $344,489 to $1,478,489.
