APPENDIX: MATRIX OF STRATEGIES AND IMPLEMENTATION ACTIONS ............ 36 13 Draft Economic Development Strategic Plan | July 26, 2016 3 I. INTRODUCTION The City of Cupertino’s Economic Development Strategic Plan (EDSP) is a policy document that will to guide the City’s economic development activities over the next three to five years. The EDSP is framed around 11 strategies intended to strengthen existing businesses, foster a healthy economy, and maintain a healthy fiscal position. For each strategy, the EDSP identifies a range of specific action items for the City Council to consider. The strategies and action items are designed to strengthen the city’s existing competitive advantages for economic development, and take action to address disadvantages. The EDSP was developed after completing an analysis of demographic, economic, and real estate market trends, and receiving feedback from community members, business leaders and City Council. The community outreach process included the following components: • Community Forum on Local Businesses: In August 2015, the City of Cupertino hosted a Community Forum to engage community members about the Economic Development Strategic Plan. At the Forum, residents, business owners, City staff, and elected officials identified assets, opportunities, and potential challenges related to economic development in Cupertino.1 • Interviews and Stakeholder Outreach: Strategic Economics completed telephone interviews with local business leaders and real estate experts to collect information and solicit feedback, and presented initial findings to the Cupertino Chamber of Commerce Legislative Action Committee. • Economic Development Committee: Strategic Economics facilitated in-person meetings with the Cupertino Economic Development Committee, which consists of four City staff members, two City Council members and four representatives from the Cupertino Chamber of Commerce, to gather input regarding technical findings and strategies. • City Council Study Session: City staff and Strategic Economics presented the findings and strategies from the Background Report to the Cupertino City Council for feedback. The Background Report, completed in January 2016, provides the findings from the technical economic analysis and community outreach, and identifies the City’s competitive advantages, issues, and opportunities for economic development. This EDSP is organized into three sections: Following this Introduction, Section II presents a Summary of Findings from the Background Report, as well as the key economic development issues for the EDSP to address. Section III contains the Strategies and Action Items for implementing the EDSP. 1 The input from the Forum is summarized in the Background Report. 14 Draft Economic Development Strategic Plan | July 26, 2016 4 II. SUMMARY OF FINDINGS In order to provide a nuanced understanding of the City’s economic opportunities and challenges, Strategic Economics analyzed local and regional trends in employment and businesses; Cupertino’s fiscal position; the office sector; the retail sector; and the hotel sector. Strategic Economics also collected input from community members and stakeholders, including residents, business owners, City staff, and elected officials. The results of the technical analysis and the input from the community engagement are summarized in the Background Report. This section highlights the major opportunities and challenges related to economic development in Cupertino from the Background Report. OPPORTUNITIES Cupertino’s location in the region, high quality of life, highly educated workforce, and existing employment base position the city well to attract and retain businesses. These opportunities are described below. Location at the heart of Silicon Valley. Cupertino is located in western Santa Clara County, bordered by Sunnyvale, Santa Clara, San Jose, and Saratoga. The city’s location provides excellent access to Interstate 280, a freeway that is relatively less congested compared to other of the region’s freeways such as Highway 101. I-280 connects the city to highly skilled workers throughout the South Bay and to the Sand Hill Road Area, the hub of venture capital activity in the region. Highly educated workforce. Nearly 80 percent of adults aged 25 and above in Cupertino have a college degree, with 40 percent holding advanced degrees. Most residents are also employed in professional occupations. The city’s significant employment base attracts a net weekday inflow of 26,700 workers, who tend to be highly educated workers in professional occupations. Excellent quality of life and first-rate school district. Cupertino’s public schools have been recognized for their excellent quality both by the State of California and in the national media. The public school system and overall quality of life are very attractive for new households, especially families with children. Thriving technology sector. Cupertino has nine employers with 250 or more workers, of which five are in technology or biotechnology. These include Apple, Seagate, Pegasystems, and Trend Micro. Other firms seek to locate in Cupertino in order to do business with these large employers as a vendor, partner, or consultant, and to take advantage of the city’s location in the region. High concentration of small firms and start-ups. Cupertino’s strength in technology is not limited to large employers. Approximately 20 percent of the city’s small and midsized businesses (defined as those with fewer than 250 employees) are in the technology industry.2 Many of the small and midsize professional services firms – such as legal offices and consulting firms – support the technology sector, providing services to Apple and other technology firms. Compared to the South Bay as a whole, the city also has a very high concentration of very small firms (with one to four employees) in the professional and technical services industries. Cupertino is attractive for these small start-ups because of the highly skilled, entrepreneurial workforce that lives in the city and in neighboring communities. 2 The technology sector includes businesses from several different industries, including professional and technical services, transportation and distribution, and manufacturing. 15 Draft Economic Development Strategic Plan | July 26, 2016 5 Strong demographics to support retail investments. High household spending power, excellent freeway accessibility, growing employment, and the significant inflow of daily commuters create significant potential for retail in Cupertino and other West Valley communities. Cupertino has been able to capitalize on this potential by attracting newer retail investments, including 130,000 square feet in the Main Street project, as well as renovations of existing centers like Homestead Square and Cupertino Village. Healthy fiscal position. General fund revenues have grown steadily over the past several years as a result of economic growth and new real estate investments. Revenue sources that are directly tied to economic growth – including sales taxes, property taxes, and transient occupancy (hotel) taxes have grown steadily over the past several years as the economy has recovered and Cupertino has attracted new investment. Major development projects, such as Main Street and Apple Campus 2, have also generated significant one- time revenues from planning, zoning, engineering, permit processing fees, and other sources. Because of its strong fiscal position, the City has been able to maintain service levels at 2.80 to 3.01 full time equivalent (FTE) staff per thousand residents over the past ten years, even as Cupertino’s population grew significantly during that time period. CHALLENGES While Cupertino has many economic assets, residents, business owners, City staff, and elected officials have concerns related to Cupertino’s ability to recruit and retain an appropriate mix of businesses over time while also maintaining the city’s excellent quality of life. These challenges are discussed below. Highly competitive retail market. Cupertino has strong demographics for retail, and offers ample neighborhood shopping centers where residents can shop for groceries and other daily needs. However, since the downsizing of the Vallco shopping mall, residents generally travel to nearby large shopping centers like Westfield Valley Fair, Santana Row, and Stanford Shopping Center for dining and entertainment opportunities and to shop for clothing and other “specialty” goods. The presence of these large centers in close proximity poses a challenge for attracting similar types of national and regional retailers in Cupertino. Challenging environment for independent retailers. Cupertino’s strong economy has driven significant demand for retail space, resulting in low vacancies and high rents. As a result, small and independent retail businesses reportedly struggle to find affordable space in the city. There is also a concern that traditional retailers selling goods are being replaced with services (e.g., tutoring centers, day cares) that require more parking than some existing shopping centers can provide and may not generate the same level of sales tax revenues. Lack of affordable office spaces for growing, midsize firms. Compared to the South Bay, Cupertino has fewer businesses and employees in firms employing between 10 and 250 workers, and the number of businesses in this size range is declining, partly due to a lack of office space to accommodate them. Strong demand for office space, combined with competition from corporate users like Apple, results in scarce leasing opportunities in the 20,000 to 100,000 square foot range. Although larger spaces are also in short supply, 20,000 to 100,000 square feet spaces are in particularly high demand for growing companies such as midsize technology startups. As a result, many expanding midsize firms have opted to relocate in other nearby communities. 16 Draft Economic Development Strategic Plan | July 26, 2016 6 Lack of diversity in revenues for the City’s General Fund. In FY 2012-13, Apple contributed total revenues of $9.2 million, or approximately 18 percent of Cupertino’s General Fund budget.3 Most of the revenues that Apple generates come from sales, property, and utility user taxes. Overall, the opening of Apple Campus 2 is expected to increase Apple’s share of tax revenue. In addition to the direct tax revenues generated by Apple, the company indirectly generates tax revenues from its suppliers, consultants, and other vendors to the General Fund budget. At the same time, the decline of Vallco Shopping Mall, as well as the loss of major business-to-business sales tax producers (including Hewlett-Packard), have reduced other sources of sales tax revenues in Cupertino. Although the City has partially offset the decline in sales tax by renegotiating an existing sales tax rebate agreement with Apple, these trends have decreased the diversity of revenue sources for the City’s General Fund. Concerns about protecting Cupertino’s quality of life. According to the 2014 community survey, residents believe that the most important issues facing Cupertino are affordable housing (33 percent), traffic (21 percent), and controlling growth (17 percent).4 Many residents are also concerned about preserving the quality of the public school system as the community continues to grow and change. KEY ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT ISSUES Based on Cupertino’s economic opportunities and challenges described above, there are five key issues defined in the EDSP for the City to prioritize over the next three to five years. These include: A. Supporting Growth of Small and Midsize Businesses: Cupertino is very attractive for start-ups and small companies. However, these businesses are often priced out of Cupertino as they grow due to high rents and a lack of available office space. Strategies to support the growth of small and mid-size businesses include facilitating the development of new office spaces in the range of 20,000 to 100,000 square feet; encouraging development of incubator spaces for start-ups in order to diversify the city’s industrial mix to include life sciences and other emerging technologies; expanding visitation and outreach to existing small and midsize firms; and providing technical assistance and resources. B. Retail Support and Development: Cupertino’s strong household spending power and growing employment base create significant demand for retail. However, while the city offers many neighborhood shopping centers, residents typically travel outside of the city for dining, entertainment, and specialty shopping opportunities. By working with property owners to upgrade aging shopping centers, supporting emerging restaurant, entertainment, and shopping clusters, and developing policies for regulating food trucks and other mobile services, the City can help foster thriving retail destinations that provide goods and services desired by community members. C. Place-Making and Connectivity: Excellent bicycle, pedestrian, and transit access is becoming increasingly important for economic development, as more companies consider transportation alternatives in making location decisions. Moreover, place-making and connectivity improvements contribute to a high quality of life and help mitigate the traffic impacts of new growth and development. Strategies including investing in public realm improvements on Stevens Creek Boulevard to support the implementation of the Heart of the City Specific Plan, and supporting local and regional investments that expand transit, pedestrian, and bicycle access to employment and activity centers in Cupertino. 3 This does not include one-time revenues from the construction of Apple Campus 2. The fiscal analysis related to Apple and presented here is from Keyser Marston Associates, “Economic and Fiscal Impacts Generated by Apple in Cupertino—Current Facilities and Apple Campus 2”, prepared for Apple Inc., 2013. 4 City of Cupertino – 2014 Community Satisfaction Survey, Godbe Research, 2014. 17 Draft Economic Development Strategic Plan | July 26, 2016 7 D. Hospitality: Cupertino’s growing technology sector drives strong demand for hotel rooms and conference spaces. While this results in significant hotel tax revenues for the City’s General Fund, business travelers often struggle to find rooms in or near Cupertino and local civic organizations have difficulty finding affordable space for meetings and events. By monitoring the need for additional hotel rooms and meeting space and entitling additional hotel development as appropriate, Cupertino can support diversification of the General Fund, and provide hotel rooms and event space to meet the needs of visitors, businesses, and civic organizations. E. Marketing: Cupertino is well known throughout the region – and the world – as the home of Apple, and the city is considered a highly prestigious business address second only to the North Valley cities of Palo Alto, Mountain View, and Menlo Park. Maintaining and expanding Cupertino’s reputation as an innovation center will help the city continue to attract a diverse range of businesses. The strategies, implementation actions, and potential partners to address each of these issues is described in the following section. 18 Draft Economic Development Strategic Plan | July 26, 2016 8 III. STRATEGIES AND ACTION ITEMS As discussed in Section II, the technical analysis and community engagement activities resulted in the identification of five key economic development issues for the EDSP to address. These key issues include: A. Supporting Growth of Small and Midsize Businesses B. Retail Support and Development C. Place-Making and Connectivity D. Hospitality E. Marketing For each of these five issues, the EDSP identifies specific strategies for the City to undertake over the next three to five years. The key issues and strategies to address them are summarized in Figure 1. The remainder of this section identifies implementation action items for addressing each of the key issues. Action items include continuing the City’s ongoing efforts to support economic development in Cupertino, as well as new action items that the City Council may choose to implement to advance economic development. All action items are classified into one of three categories based on the amount of additional staff time, legislative action, or budget required for implementation: • Category 1: Require small amounts of additional staff time in order to implement, but no major legislative action or budget allocations. • Category 2: Require significant staff time and/or legislative action by the City Council. • Category 3: Require additional budget allocation, as well as significant staff time and/or legislative action. The remainder of this chapter describes each potential implementation action item in more detail, and identifies the lead agency from the City as well as likely partners. A full matrix of all the economic development issues, strategies, and action items is presented in the appendix to this report. 19 Draft Economic Development Strategic Plan | July 26, 2016 9 Figure 1: Key Issues and Strategies for Economic Development Key Issues to Address Strategies A.

Cupertino is highly attractive for start-ups and small companies. However, a very tight market for office space, combined with the high share of office space occupied by Apple, results in scarce leasing opportunities in the 20,000 to 100,000 square foot range. As a result, many expanding midsize firms have opted to relocate in other nearby communities. In the long term, retaining these growing companies will require providing office space to meet their needs. Ongoing City Efforts • Create opportunities for small office users by encouraging developers to reserve space for small offices. For example, the City negotiated an agreement with Sand Hill Property Company to reserve space for small office users in the Main Street project. These would range from 3,000- 10,000 square feet and would include small business ventures, co-working spaces, etc. Category 2 Actions • Increase allocation for office development for mid-size businesses in the 20,000-100,000 sq. ft. range. The City lacks office space in the 20,000 to 100,000 square foot range that can accommodate growing companies and midsize startups. o Lead Agency: Planning • Create a new development allocation category for Innovation Space. This allocation would provide for the development of new laboratory and R&D space for businesses in the greentech, biosciences, life sciences, and other creative industries. o Lead Agency: Planning • Consider establishing a new “Innovation District” in the Bubb Road and/or Bandley Drive/Valley Green Drive areas. By formally designating some of the less intensive, Light Industrial areas in the City as “Innovation Districts,” the City could encourage and incentivize the reuse and rebuilding of existing buildings to create spaces appropriate for small to midsize businesses in sectors such as greentech, biosciences, life sciences, and other creative industries. For example, the designation could apply to the Bubb Road area (roughly bounded by Stevens Creek Boulevard on the north, McClellan Road on the south, Highway 85 on the east, and Imperial Avenue on the west) and/or the Light Industrial properties located on the west side of Bandley Drive and north of Valley Green Drive. The City could support the Innovation Districts with a coordinated branding and marketing strategy, and explore incentives (such as development allocations for innovation space) to encourage property owners to dedicate new and existing space to greentech, biosciences, and other innovation uses. The new ”Innovation District” would also require or incentivize street improvements and transportation demand management measures aimed at encouraging walking and bicycling and mitigating the traffic impacts of new businesses, as well as the provision of other uses that would serve the district (food uses, etc). 21 Draft Economic Development Strategic Plan | July 26, 2016 11 o Lead Agency: Planning • Review and update land uses in the zoning designations related to Office and Industrial uses to ensure that they are adaptable to current and future business needs. Some of the uses in the existing zone code are outdated and do not reflect current industry needs. The code should be revisited to better align with current and emerging space needs, and to more clearly state the types of uses (such as biosciences, greentech, etc.) that the City envisions for different locations within Cupertino. o Lead Agency: Planning • Allow for the conversion of underutilized ground floor retail space to office space. In underperforming shopping centers, allow for spaces to be occupied by smaller office users, providing that there is sufficient parking and infrastructure to support office uses. Note that this may require a zoning change in some locations, such as in the Heart of the City Specific Plan area. o Lead Agency: Planning STRATEGY 2 Support development of business incubator, accelerator, co-working, shared, and "on-demand" workplaces. Co-working, shared, and on-demand spaces provide flexible office space where entrepreneurs, freelancers, or other individuals can rent a desk at a relatively low cost. Examples include WeWork and NextSpace (see text box below). Start-up accelerators or incubators provide mentorship, training, and sometimes investment capital and/or low-cost space for emerging tech companies, often in exchange for a small amount of equity. While some start-up accelerators have proven highly profitable,5 co-working businesses typically operate on a thin profit margin,6 and some incubators that provide low-cost space for start-ups have required public subsidy.7 For example, the San Jose BioCube was originally funded by the San Jose Redevelopment Agency (see text box below). Cupertino already has at least one co-working space: Pacific Workplaces, an 18,000 square foot location on Stevens Creek Boulevard that provides flexible co-working spaces for approximately 300 small businesses. By supporting these types of flexible workspaces, the City can continue to nurture Cupertino’s existing ecosystem of start-ups and help grow the next generation of innovative businesses. Category 2 Actions: • Allow for the conversion of underutilized ground floor retail space to incubator or co-working uses. There are a number of underutilized retail sites (such as second-floor retail space and spaces 5 Tomio Green, “Top Startup Incubators and Accelerators: Y Combinator Tops with $7.8 Million in Value,” Forbes, April 30, 2012, http://www.forbes.com/sites/tomiogeron/2012/04/30/top-tech-incubators-as-ranked-by-forbes-y- combinator-tops-with-7-billion-in-value/. 6 DeskMag, “The 2nd Global Coworking Survey: How Profitable Are Coworking Spaces?” http://www.deskmag.com/en/how-profitable-are-coworking-spaces-177. 7 Diana Samuels, “Silicon Valley Incubators Feel the Pain of Redevelopment’s Demise,” Silicon Valley/San Jose Business Journal, July 13, 2012, http://www.bizjournals.com/sanjose/print-edition/2012/07/13/silicon-valley- incubators-feel-the.html?page=all. 22 Draft Economic Development Strategic Plan | July 26, 2016 12 located to the side or rear of a property) that could be converted to smaller co-working spaces or incubators. Note that the conversion of some existing retail buildings may require property owners to make investments in infrastructure or building improvements to serve such businesses. o Lead Agency: Planning Category 3 Actions: • Seek out partnerships for developing a new small business incubator or accelerator, and consider contributing City funds if needed. The City may explore potential partners like DeAnza Community College, the Santa Clara County Library District, other nearby universities, colleges, or other organizations, to operate a small incubator or accelerator. The City may contribute funding to support the incubator spaces, either by directly subsidizing its operations or by encouraging private developers to provide low-cost spaces for this type of use as part of a community benefits process for approving large commercial projects (see discussion under Strategy 1). o Lead Agency: Economic Development o Potential Partners: DeAnza Community College, Santa Clara County Library District Case Study: WeWork and NextSpace WeWork and NextSpace are privately-funded providers of co-working spaces with national and international locations. WeWork currently has about six locations in San Francisco and one in San Jose, while NextSpace has five Bay Area locations. Membership with these spaces can take many forms and could include: occasional access, day passes, long term passes to common workspaces, dedicated workstations and offices, and conference rooms. Typically, these co-working spaces tout the benefits of connecting with other innovators and creative enterprises as a key value proposition of membership. Case Study: San Jose BioCube The San Jose BioCube is a business incubator providing facilities for life science, nanotech, and cleantech startup companies. These facilities include office space, laboratory facilities, and business support services to a variety of startups who can either locate directly onsite or utilize BioCube’s facilities on a pro-rated basis. Originally called the San Jose BioCenter, it was created in 2004 under the San Jose Bioscience initiative sponsored by the San Jose Redevelopment Agency. Although public funding was phased out with the agency’s dissolution 2012, the facility was able to survive with the assistance of private investment and a name change to the “BioCube.” In 2014 the BioCube became 100 percent self-sufficient.

The Economic Development Division of Cupertino’s Community Development Department already conducts a robust program of business outreach aimed at providing new and growing businesses with information about doing business in Cupertino (see “Ongoing City Efforts” described below). The City’s business outreach program could be expanded and refined to focus on retaining small and midsize businesses, especially those that are at risk of moving out of the City as they grow. Fostering a diverse range of firms will help build a resilient business ecosystem that can better withstand future changes in broader economic conditions. Ongoing City Efforts: • Conduct outreach to existing businesses, including regularly visiting local businesses to discuss programs, events, and/or incentives that may be of interest. Economic Development staff visit local businesses and attend meetings of the Chamber of Commerce and other local organizations to provide information on business resources offered by the City and partner organizations (such as the Silicon Valley Economic Development Alliance and the Silicon Valley Small Business Development Center). o Lead Agency: Economic Development • Distribute and regularly update “How to Start Your Business in Cupertino” booklet. The “How to Start Your Business in Cupertino” booklet is published by the Economic Development Division and provides step-by-step instructions and informational links for developing a business plan, selecting a location, applying for permits and licenses, and accessing incentives. o Lead Agency: Economic Development • Continue to host the annual Small Business Symposium. The City of Cupertino and the Cupertino Chamber of Commerce co-host an Annual Small Business Symposium that provides workshops covering essential topics for those wanting to start a new business or who are ready to grow their existing businesses. In past years, workshop topics have included marketing and social media, accessing capital, legal issues, and green business practices. o Lead Agency: Economic Development o Partners: Cupertino Chamber of Commerce, Cupertino Library Category 1 Actions: • Provide assistance to new and expanding businesses with obtaining needed permits and licenses from the City and other agencies. The Planning and Economic Development Divisions could work together to explore a “concierge” service that would assign specific staff members to work closely with high-priority applicants, including providing a single point of contact to expedite the City permitting and licensing process. Staff could also assist businesses in receiving permits from other agencies. o Lead Agencies: Planning and Economic Development • Identify growing, small and midsize companies that are at risk of moving out of Cupertino as they expand, and focus existing business retention efforts on these companies. Economic development staff could identify growing companies that are at risk of leaving the City in order to 24 Draft Economic Development Strategic Plan | July 26, 2016 14 expand, and help connect them with resources such as those offered by the Silicon Valley Economic Development Alliance and the Silicon Valley Small Business Development Center. o Lead Agency: Economic Development • Work with local brokers to match growing companies to space in Cupertino. Finding office space in Cupertino is a significant barrier for many companies that wish to grow in the City. Building on existing relationships with brokers, Economic Development staff can help provide information on office space vacancies to small and midsize businesses that have been identified as being at risk of leaving the City. o Lead Agency: Economic Development • Conduct an online survey of existing businesses to determine key advantages and disadvantages of doing business in Cupertino. This survey could be conducted on a regular (e.g., annual basis) help evaluate existing City services and programs, and help identify challenges or gaps in the resources available to local businesses. o Lead Agency: Economic Development Category 2 Actions: • Conduct regular outreach to growing small and midsize businesses to determine what services would help them expand in Cupertino, including individual visits, roundtables or focus groups, and citywide events. These visits, roundtables, or events could focus on key audiences (such as growing midsize companies) or important topics identified in the online survey (described under Category 1 Actions). Regular, formal discussions with businesses could inform the City’s future business outreach and retention efforts. o Lead Agency: Economic Development STRATEGY 4 Develop a cohesive business support network offering technical assistance and access to financing, with a focus on enabling growing businesses to stay in Cupertino. Cupertino staff maintain excellent relationships with local and regional business organizations that provide technical assistance to businesses, and regularly refers local businesses to those technical service providers. There may be opportunities to build on these relationships to expand the range of services and resources available to Cupertino businesses, or for the City to provide services directly to businesses. Ongoing City Efforts: • Meet regularly with local and regional business organizations and technical assistance providers to build partnerships. Economic Development staff regularly attend meetings held by the Cupertino Chamber of Commerce (including the Chamber’s Legislative Action Committee and the Asian American Business Council), the Silicon Valley Economic Development Alliance, CREW Silicon Valley (a commercial real estate professional organization), and the Rotary Club of Cupertino. o Lead Agency: Economic Development 25 Draft Economic Development Strategic Plan | July 26, 2016 15 o Partners: Cupertino Chamber of Commerce, Silicon Valley Economic Development Alliance, CREW Silicon Valley, Rotary Club of Cupertino • Continue to hold quarterly meetings with Economic Development Committee. The Committee consists of four City staff members, two City Council members and four representatives from the Cupertino Chamber of Commerce. The Committee’s activities are targeted at enhancing the Cupertino business environment, developing business and community relationships, working with existing business to identify and eliminate any barriers to retention or redevelopment, recruiting compatible businesses to the City, and supporting a strong local economy and fiscal base to enable to the City to provide excellent municipal services. o Lead Agency: Economic Development Category 1 Actions: • Explore additional opportunities to connect small businesses with existing micro-credit providers or other small business lenders. For example, the Silicon Valley Small Business Development Corporation in San Jose offers workshops and individual business counseling on access to capital, including bank finance, Small Business Administration (SBA) loans, and venture capital. o Lead Agency: Economic Development o Partners: Silicon Valley Small Business Development Corporation, Small Business Administration, Silicon Valley Talent Partnership Category 2 Actions: • Partner with technology programs at De Anza College and/or local high schools to offer assistance to Cupertino businesses, such as support in building websites and applications. For example, students in De Anza College’s Computer Information Systems (CIS) department could help local retailers and other businesses create websites, launch social media advertising campaigns, etc. o Lead Agency: Economic Development o Partners: De Anza College, local high schools • Establish the City of Cupertino as a Kiva Zip trustee to find and endorse local businesses seeking to borrow money on the Kiva Zip website. Kiva Zip is a microfinancing platform that connects entrepreneurial borrowers with individuals interested in supporting small businesses. A Kiva Zip “trustee,” which can be a City or other organization, recommends borrowers for a loan based on the borrower’s qualifications and local knowledge. The trustee can support borrowers in other ways but does not have any fiduciary responsibility for the loan. Trustees take on no direct financial risks, but their reputation is based on the repayment of the loans that they endorse. See the text box below for an example of the City of Oakland’s KivaZip Trustee Program. o Lead Agency: Economic Development o Partners: Kiva Zip Category 3 Actions: • Contract with business assistance providers to provide targeted services to Cupertino businesses, or hire staff and provide services in-house. Rather than referring businesses to the Silicon Valley Small Business Development Corporation or other business technical assistance 26 Draft Economic Development Strategic Plan | July 26, 2016 16 organizations, the City could contract directly with providers to offer services in Cupertino, and/or hire additional Economic Development staff with the capacity to provide training, counseling, and other services in-house. This could include working with Small Business Development Centers of Northern California to sponsor a local office (see text box below for more information). o Lead Agency: Economic Development o Partners: Small Business Development Centers of Northern California • Provide seed capital to start a revolving loan fund to provide small loans for small and midsize businesses in Cupertino for business expansion and other business needs. Revolving loan funds provide financing for small businesses that are meet local goals (such as creating local employment opportunities) and are creditworthy, but do otherwise do not qualify for bank loans. See the text below for an example sponsored by the City of Berkeley. o Lead Agency: Economic Development 27 Draft Economic Development Strategic Plan | July 26, 2016 17 Case Study: City of Oakland’s Kiva Zip Trustee Program Kiva Zip is a microfinancing platform that connects entrepreneurial borrowers with individuals interested in supporting small businesses in the U.S. A Kiva Zip “trustee,” which can be an entire organization, recommends borrowers for a loan based on the borrower’s qualifications and local knowledge. The trustee can support borrowers in other ways but does not have any fiduciary responsibility for the loan. Trustees take on no direct financial risks, but their reputation is based on the repayment of the loans that they endorse. In 2013, the City of Oakland became the first city government to serve as a Kiva Zip trustee. Since that time, the City has endorsed 33 loans for a total value of approximately $235,000, and a repayment rate of 87 percent. The City uses billboard advertising to promote the program, which supports locally owned businesses, often in food service. Case Study: Berkeley Revolving Loan Fund The Berkeley Revolving Loan Fund is a source of financing for small businesses that otherwise do not qualify for bank loans. Borrowers still need to be creditworthy and satisfy other criteria, such as demonstrating that their business creates local employment opportunities. The fund was started in 1984 with a grant from the federal Economic Development Administration, and the program was adjusted in 2011 to require an application fee and to cap the size of the loan. The loans, which today are available for up to $35,000 and for a term of up to seven years, can be used for business expansion, purchase of fixed assets, tenant improvements, and real estate. As of 2015, the program had lent nearly $1.6 million to 38 borrowers since inception, and current borrowers include a high-end tent manufacturer, a reseller of biofuels, and a cooking school.

The Cupertino General Plan identifies the Stevens Creek corridor as the “Heart of the City” – the key mixed- use area that functions as Cupertino’s downtown. The General Plan and the Heart of the City Specific Plan (discussed in more detail below, under Strategy 8) envision an improved corridor that provides a greater sense of place, more community identity, and a memorable experience for residents, workers and visitors. The qualities of successful pedestrian-oriented retail districts are explained in more detail in the text box on the following page. One key part of implementing this vision is revitalizing and upgrading aging shopping centers on the corridor. While the smaller, strip shopping centers on Stevens Creek Boulevard have generally been successful at attracting new tenants, many have not been upgraded in years. In particular, the eastern segment of Stevens Creek Boulevard – extending from North De Anza Boulevard to the city border – is characterized by relatively small, shallow lots with limited visibility, parking constraints, and relatively underperforming retailers. Programs and policies that incentivize property owners and businesses to reinvest in aging shopping centers will help support continued, successful retail activity on the corridor, and contribute to upgrading the look and feel of Stevens Creek to create a welcoming gateway into Cupertino. Case Study: Small Business Development Centers of Northern California The Small Business Development Centers of Northern California are a network of business assistance offices whose services include educational a nd training seminars and counseling at low- or no-cost. The NorCal network is operated out of CSU Humboldt, and the network is funded by the Small Business Administration, with satellite offices typically at the county level. The Silicon Valley SBDC, in downtown San Jose, is the satellite office serving Santa Clara County. NorCal SBDC also has a handful of strategic initiatives with services tailored to particular industry sectors, including technology, procurement, international trade, and green business. For example, the “Tech Futures Group”, with an office in Berkeley, advises tech startups and growing firms with advisors that have expertise navigating the particular issues confronted by high growth technology firms, such as intellectual property strategy and venture capital fundraising.

These districts share some common elements that contribute to their success: •Concentration of retail within a convenient walking distance: A critical mass of retail and services within a comfortable walking distance enables visitors to park once and walk to their destination, or browse shopping and dining options on foot. Successful pedestrian-oriented retail districts are often quite compact. For example, the majority of activity on Burlingame Avenue is concentrated within a quarter-mile section of the street, or about a five-minute walking distance from end to end. •Pedestrian-friendly atmosphere: Burlingame Avenue, Castro Street, Downtown Los Gatos, and Downtown Campbell all have wide sidewalks and attractive street trees, lighting, and other furniture. The storefronts are active, and many restaurants have invested in attractive outdoor dining. •High concentration of restaurants: In these successful retail districts, about one- quarter to one-third of businesses are restaurants or food stores. •Comprehensive parking management strategies: Mountain View and Los Gatos provide ample visitor parking in public lots and garages located within walking distance of downtown shops and restaurants, while restricting long-term parking in surrounding residential neighborhoods. •Active merchants’ associations: Downtown Burlingame, Downtown Mountain View, and Downtown Campbell all have active merchants’ associations that partner with the cities in sponsoring marketing, community events, and other activities. Downtown Burlingame Image: Strategic Economics Downtown Mountain View Image: Strategic Economics Downtown Los Gatos Image: City of Los Gatos 30 Draft Economic Development Strategic Plan | July 26, 2016 20 Category 2 Actions: • Provide incentives in key locations for upgrading or intensifying existing retail and/or replacing retail with mixed-use development. Some small parcels with existing retail centers may not be able to accommodate sufficient parking to meet current code requirements, limiting the property owner’s ability to upgrade, replace the existing retail space, or redevelop with higher- intensity retail or mixed-use project. Providing some flexibility on parking requirements for these properties, allowing for mixed-use development, and/or providing incentives such as increased heights or densities on challenging parcels, could encourage property owners to invest in major improvements or redevelop aging retail buildings. o Lead Agency: Planning o Partners: Retail Property Owners, Developers • Develop design standards for retail space in mixed-use developments to ensure that new retail space contributes to the desired look and feel of the community, and functions well for retailers. Some mixed-use projects struggle to lease ground floor retail space in part due to the limited visibility from the street, lack of signage, poor vehicle and pedestrian access, low ceiling heights, and/or lack of specific requirements such as adequate ventilation for restaurant cooking. Providing guidelines on appropriate design could help ensure the success of future ground floor retail space. While the Heart of the City Specific Plan includes design guidelines for building exteriors, the plan does not provide specific standards for ground floor retail. o Lead Agency: Planning o Partners: Retail Property Owners, Developers • Conduct outreach to Stevens Creek property and business owners to explore the potential to form a Business Improvement District (BID) or Property-Based Business Improvement District (PBID) on all or part of the Stevens Creek corridor, to fund marketing, landscaping, maintenance, and/or other local needs. BIDs and PBIDs are a type of special assessment district in which business or commercial property owners vote to be assessed a fee to fund programs and projects within the business area. Typically, a BID or PBID provides resources to develop marketing campaigns, increase lobbying efforts, secure additional funding, and invest in public improvements and beautification projects in partnership with a city. By pooling private resources, business owners in BIDs collectively pay for activities that they could not afford on an individual basis. A BID or PBID on Stevens Creek Boulevard (or on some segment of the corridor) could pay for these types of activities, potentially including some of the landscaping and other streetscape improvements identified in the Heart of the City Specific Plan (see discussion under Strategy 8, below). o Lead Agencies: Planning and Economic Development o Partners: Stevens Creek Business Owners and/or Property Owners Category 3 Actions: • Provide grants or loans to retail property owners and/or tenants to encourage them to upgrade their façades. Façade improvement programs provide matching grants or loans to incentivize retail property owners and/or tenants to invest in improvements to the exterior of their buildings. Typical improvements include new paint, installation or replacement of signs or awnings, and refurbishments to non-structural architectural features (e.g., trim, cornices, windows, etc.). In order to receive a grant or loan, applicants must meet certain criteria such as contributing a matching amount of money to the project, complying with local design guidelines, and receiving 31 Draft Economic Development Strategic Plan | July 26, 2016 21 all necessary city permits. In addition to providing funding, some programs also provide design assistance to ensure that façade improvements meet city standards. Façade improvement programs are often targeted to a particular district, such as a downtown or major retail corridor. In Cupertino, this type of program could be targeted to Stevens Creek Boulevard to help achieve the goals of the Heart of the City Specific Plan. Prior to 2011, most façade improvement programs in California were funded by redevelopment agencies. Since the dissolution of redevelopment in 2011, however, some cities have managed to find other funding sources, including Santa Cruz and Dublin (profiles in the text box below). o Lead Agencies: Planning and Economic Development o Partners: Property Owners, Retail Businesses 32 Draft Economic Development Strategic Plan | July 26, 2016 22 Case Study: City of Santa Cruz Façade Improvement Program Since 1994, the City of Santa Cruz has offered grants for façade improvements to its retail businesses, with over 100 grants disbursed since the program’s inception benefitting more than 260 small business establishments. Any ground floor retail business (or commercial property containing such a business) can apply for a grant, as long as each storefront benefiting from improvements has at least three years remaining on its lease. While the program prioritizes painting entire buildings, improving public safety lighting, and anti-graffiti measures, signs, awnings, and landscaping can also be funded as part of an overall façade improvement project. Grants are available for up to $10,000 for the entire project, and up to $5,000 matching grant per storefront. Up to $1,000 is provided for a City-selected designer. The grant program is paid for with the City’s General Fund. Case Study: City of Dublin Sales Tax Reimbursement Program. Enacted in 2009, the Sales Tax Reimbursement Program in the City of Dublin reimburses up to fifty percent of the net new sales tax paid to the city after eligible physical improvements have been made to retail businesses. Participants generating between $100,000 and $500,000 in net new annual sales tax revenue are eligible for annual reimbursements over five years, up to the total costs of improvements. Participants generating over $500,000 are eligible for annual reimbursements over ten years. Costs covered by the program include exterior improvements, interior tenant improvements, and site improvements such as parking and landscaping. A participant in the program ordinarily needs to be a business newly locating in Dublin, not an existing business.

Because retail sales taxes are a major contributor to the General Fund, a thriving retail market is important to the City’s fiscal health. Retail nodes that offer a diverse range of shopping, dining, and entertainment options can also serve as community gathering places for residents and workers, and help attract new visitors to the city. Vallco Shopping Mall used to fill this role in Cupertino, and may do so once again when it is eventually redeveloped (however, Vallco Shopping Mall is subject to a separate Specific Plan process, and is therefore outside the focus of this Economic Development Strategic Plan). The new Main Street project also provides some new retail and community space. In addition to continue to monitor the success of these larger projects, the City can also help support smaller retail and community gathering nodes throughout Cupertino. Ongoing City Efforts: • Meet regularly with retail and commercial brokers to answer questions, build relationships, and get updates on projects. Economic development staff maintain excellent relationships with retail and commercial brokers who are active in the Cupertino real estate market. o Lead Agency: Economic Development • Represent the City at ICSC and other local and regional conferences. Economic Development staff regularly attend conferences held by the International Council of Shopping Centers (ICSC) and other local and regional retail recruiting events to market Cupertino to retailers. o Lead Agency: Economic Development • Maintain “Eats 95014” app/website and “Cupertino at a Glance” website. “Eats 95014” is a local restaurant app that showcases Cupertino dining and food opportunities including restaurants, grocery stores, the farmer's market, and vineyards. The app provides information on store hours, parking information, noise level, directions, and links to websites. Users can search and sort restaurants by type of cuisine and services offered. The “Cupertino at a Glance” website provides a map with business information and website links for Cupertino’s cultural, civic, recreational, and dining facilities. o Lead Agencies: Economic Development, Communications Category 1 Actions: • Work with brokers and retail site selection professionals to market Cupertino to desired tenants, such as high-end restaurants and comparison retailers, and match retailers with appropriate sites in Cupertino. Cupertino should continue communicating with brokers and site selection professionals to inform them of the types of retail that are desired by the community, and to match businesses to existing properties. o Lead Agency: Economic Development o Partners: Retail Brokers, Property Owners, Retail Businesses 34 Draft Economic Development Strategic Plan | July 26, 2016 24 Category 2 Actions: • Create a marketing campaign to increase awareness of local retailers and service providers among workers employed at Cupertino businesses. The City can develop a new campaign to inform workers in Cupertino about the range of restaurants, retailers, and personal service providers available in the city in order to encourage them to shop and dine locally and support small businesses. Examples of promotional materials could include a mobile app featuring local businesses, printed posters, and a new website. o Lead Agency: Economic Development o Partners: Major Employers, Local Retail Businesses • Seek out social media partnerships to promote shopping local. There are many examples of cities partnering with private companies such as Yelp and American Express to promote local shopping events that could be models for Cupertino (see text box examples, below). o Lead Agency: Economic Development STRATEGY 7 Develop policies for regulating food trucks and other mobile services, including the types of mobile services that are permitted, the locations and times when they may operate, and measures for mitigating environmental, traffic, and other impacts. Mobile services include food trucks, mobile auto care services, mobile dry cleaning, and any other goods and services offered from a vehicle. These services create an opportunity to fill existing gaps in services, stimulate economic activity, and activate underutilized spaces with events and programming. In Silicon Valley, many major corporations regularly host mobile vendors on campus in order to provide convenient services for workers. However, the increasing popularity of mobile services has also raised concerns in Case Study: Yelp Shop Local Pledge In 2012, Yelp created a program to encourage users to shop at independent retailers in their local areas for the holiday season. Users were asked to pledge to shop locally. For participants in the South Bay/Peninsula area, Yelp sponsored several events to promote independent retailers, such as happy hours and pop up events. Case Study: American Express Shop Small and Small Business Saturday Shop Small is a program sponsored by American Express to promote small businesses. Participants in the free program can get personalized marketing materials and other assistance promoting their businesses through the platform as well as a listing on the Shop Small Map. “Neighborhood Champions” are local business associations, chambers of commerce, or other community organizers that organize events to promote Small Business Saturday, the first Saturday after the Thanksgiving holiday. In the past, American Express has offered credits for purchases made on that day.

Many California cities are revisiting their regulatory framework to ensure that mobile services can continue to provide needed goods and services without detracting from local businesses or the community’s quality of life. Ongoing City Efforts: • Issue limited special events permits for food truck events, and require mobile service vendors to apply for a Cupertino business license in order to operate in the City. Currently, Cupertino companies or other organizations can apply for up to four special events permits per year to host food truck or other mobile services events. Food trucks are required to obtain a Cupertino business license in order to operate in the City. o Lead Agencies: Planning, Economic Development • Support the weekly Off the Grid food truck festival in the Whole Foods parking lot. Off the Grid Cupertino is held every Tuesday evening in the Whole Foods parking lot on Stevens Creek Boulevard and features a rotating assortment of food trucks. o Lead Agencies: Planning, Economic Development Category 1 Actions: • Work with Chamber of Commerce to reach out to mobile service vendors, ensure that they aware of existing local and state laws and regulations, and involve them in Chamber activities. Currently, mobile service vendors receive information about joining the Cupertino Chamber of Commerce when they apply to receive a business license. Planning and Economic Development staff could partner with Chamber staff to conduct additional, proactive outreach at Off the Grid and other mobile service events, in order to inform vendors about opportunities to participate in Chamber activities and ensure that businesses are aware of local and state laws and regulations. o Lead Agencies: Planning and Economic Development o Partners: Chamber of Commerce Category 2 Actions: • Conduct outreach to Cupertino residents and the local business community on appropriate locations and regulations for mobile services. Brick-and-mortar business owners sometimes perceive mobile vendors as having an unfair advantage because they do not pay rent or property taxes, and in some instances may avoid paying sales tax as well. Regulating the number of food trucks that can gather in a particular site or district may help address retailers’ concerns about impacts on local businesses, in addition to addressing traffic and safety issues. Economic development programs that seek to activate underutilized areas or attract more street activity (such as the Fremont Street Eats program described in the text box below) can also help brick-and-mortar retailers recognize an advantage to allowing food trucks or other mobile services to locate nearby. By conducting outreach to concerned business owners and residents, the City can help educate stakeholders about the potential impacts of food trucks, and determine what types of policies or regulations might be best suited for Cupertino. o Lead Agencies: Planning and Economic Development o Partners: Retail Businesses, Residents, Mobile Food Vendors • Develop policies to allow and manage mobile service vendors, which may include a new licensing and/or permitting process. Policies should be tailored to meet Cupertino’s specific 36 Draft Economic Development Strategic Plan | July 26, 2016 26 needs and conditions. For example, based on community and business feedback and further study, the City could create new licensing or permitting processes that restrict mobile vendors to specific geographic areas within the city, times of day, or special events. The text box below provides an example of the City of Mountain View’s recently adopted permitting process for mobile vendors. o Lead Agencies: Planning and Economic Development o Partners: Retail Businesses, Residents, Mobile Food Vendors 37 Draft Economic Development Strategic Plan | July 26, 2016 27 Case Study: Mountain View’s Permitting Process for Mobile Vendors In 2013, the City of Mountain View passed an ordinance to address concerns about traffic flow and public safety arising from the increased presence of mobile vendors in that community. The ordinance also streamlined street vendor permitting to account for mobile services operating on both public and private property, rather than on designated sites. Mountain View’s rules address safety and congestion by requiring mobile vendors to maintain a minimum distance of 100 feet from schools, and by limiting vending on private property to a maximum of four hours on a particular site per day, with no more than three vendors on a property simultaneously. A separate Temporary Use permitting process was created to allow for longer hours and larger clusters of vendors at food truck rallies and other special events. In Mountain View’s downtown area, vendors are prohibited from operating on the most centralized streets. This restriction is an additional safety measure that also mitigates some of the competitive concerns of brick-and- mortar stores in that area. Case Study: Fremont Street Eats Beginning in 2013, the City of Fremont began working with the Fremont Chamber of Commerce to establish a weekly food truck event in Downtown Fremont. Fremont Street Eats is now a weekly event in its third season, sponsored by the Chamber. Street Eats was intended as an economic development program intended to help activate the Downtown. Many existing businesses, including small retailers and restaurants, consider the program a successful economic development effort because it helps bring pedestrian traffic to an area that was historically underused.

The General Plan calls for updating the look and feel of the City’s neighborhood shopping centers and commercial corridors to improve bicycle and pedestrian connections to surrounding residential neighborhoods and create welcoming gateways into Cupertino. The General Plan calls out Stevens Creek Boulevard as Cupertino’s core commercial corridor, and the Heart of the City Specific Plan identifies streetscape design principles for different segments of the Stevens Creek corridor, including street tree, landscaping, and street furnishing concepts, and specifies design standards for new development. The City has also adopted Conceptual Plans for North DeAnza Boulevard (between I-280 and Stevens Creek), De Anza Boulevard (between Stevens Creek and Bollinger Road), and the Vallco Shopping District that provide direction on streetscape and connectivity improvements in these areas. By creating a more welcoming environment for Cupertino residents and visitors, the new street trees and other improvements will help support successful retail along these corridors. Ongoing City Efforts: • Implement the land use and design guidelines from the Heart of the City Specific Plan; require new development to contribute to planned streetscape and infrastructure improvements. The Specific Plan lists contributions and in-kind improvements by developers as the primary mechanism for implementing the streetscape improvements identified in the plan. o Lead Agency: Planning o Partners: Stevens Creek Property Owners and Developers • Implement the land use and transportation policies in the General Plan and Conceptual Plans to ensure that site, building, street, and streetscape design support the City’s goals for community character and connectivity. The plans call for improvements to neighborhood centers and commercial corridors throughout the City. o Lead Agency: Planning Category 1 Actions: • Support community programming at activity centers along major corridors. The General Plan identifies a series of special centers and nodes along major corridors, including the Oaks Shopping Center, Cupertino Memorial Park, DeAnza College, the North Crossroads Node (consisting of shopping centers on the north side of Stevens Creek between N. Sterling Road and N. De Anza Boulevard), City Center, and the Civic Center. By partnering with civic organizations, retailers, and property owners to sponsor programming and events in these nodes, the City can help bring new activity to the corridors. o Lead Agencies: Economic Development, Planning, Parks and Recreation 39 Draft Economic Development Strategic Plan | July 26, 2016 29 o Partners: Chamber of Commerce, DeAnza College, Retail Businesses and Property Owners Category 2 Actions: • Develop implementation plans for improving major corridors such as Stevens Creek Boulevard, including identifying phasing and specific funding sources for planned improvements. For example, a comprehensive implementation strategy for the Heart of the City Specific Plan would identify the desired phasing for the streetscape improvements called for in the plan, provide updated construction costs, and identify the full range of potential funding sources. Adopting an implementation strategy could position the City to apply for grants and seek other funds, above and beyond contributions from developers. In addition, a clear strategy could help lay the groundwork for the eventual establishment of a BID or PBID (see discussion of BIDs and PBIDs above, under Strategy 5). o Lead Agency: Planning o Partners: Property Owners and Developers, Business Owners, Residents • Pursue grants for streetscape and other improvements as they become available. For example, the One Bay Area grant (OBAG) program provides grants for local streets and roads preservation, bicycle and pedestrian improvements, and streetscape improvements. At least 70 percent of OBAG funds must be spent in Priority Development Areas (PDAs); as a PDA, the Stevens Creek corridor would be eligible for this funding. The Santa Clara Valley Transportation Authority (VTA) administers the OBAG capital grant program in Santa Clara County. VTA has fully allocated its share of OBAG dollars through FY 2015-16. After FY 2015-16, however, more OBAG funds may become available. o Lead Agency: Planning o Partners: Santa Clara Valley Transportation Authority (VTA) Category 3 Actions: • Allocate funds in the City's capital improvement program to implement landscaping, pedestrian, and other infrastructure improvements envisioned in the Heart of the City Specific Plan and other Conceptual Plans. Setting aside capital improvement funds from the City budget would help facilitate faster implementation of the Plan, and help meet the local match required by many grant programs. o Lead Agency: Public Works, Finance, Planning STRATEGY 9 Support local and regional transportation improvements that improve transit, pedestrian and bicycle connections to employment and activity centers in Cupertino. Access to transit and excellent bicycle and pedestrian connections are becoming increasingly important for economic development, as more companies consider transportation alternatives in making location decisions. Facilitating transit, walking, and bicycling can also help reduce strain on the automobile network, 40 Draft Economic Development Strategic Plan | July 26, 2016 30 improve health and quality of life for Cupertino residents, and help mitigate the traffic impacts of new growth and development – a major concern for many community members. Ongoing City Efforts: • Implement and regularly update and the Bicycle Transportation Plan, including pursuing grants as they become available. In 2015, the City Council adopted the 2015 Bikeway Improvement Prioritization Update to the 2011 Cupertino Bicycle Transportation Plan. Together, these documents provide a roadmap designed to encourage bicycling as a safe, practical, and healthy alternative to the automobile. The City has also established a Bicycle Pedestrian Commission charged with reviewing, monitoring, and making recommendations regarding bicycle and pedestrian traffic, parking, education and recreation, and other transportation issues. The Commission and City staff work together to implement the Bicycle Transportation Plan and expand the share of trips taken by on foot or by bicycle. o Lead Agency: Public Works o Partners: Bicycle Pedestrian Commission • Require major employers to meet transportation demand management goals. The General Plan Mobility Element requires large employers to develop and maintain transportation demand management (TDM) programs to reduce vehicle trips generated by their employees, and develop a tracking method to monitor results. o Lead Agencies: Planning, Public Works • Actively participate in regional transportation planning processes and advocate for decisions that meet Cupertino's needs. Public Works, Planning, and other departments regularly participate in regional transportation planning processes to advocate for programs that are consistent with the goals and policies of Cupertino’s General Plan. City staff also work with neighboring cities to address regional transportation and land use issues of mutual interest. o Lead Agency: Public Works, Planning • Work with Caltrans and the Santa Clara Valley Transportation Authority to explore new regional transit options, such as on Highway 85. In anticipation of a potential Santa Clara County Transportation Sales Tax measure on the ballot in the November 2016 election, the City of Cupertino has been working with other West Valley and North County cities on developing a mass transit project that would serve this portion of the region’s jobs utilizing VTA and concentrating on the 85 Corridor. In April 2016, Cupertino’s Director of Public Works introduced the concepts to the Chamber of Commerce Legislative Action Committee and held a Business Workshop to facilitate a more detailed discussion. o Lead Agency: Public Works Category 1 Actions: • Work with major employers to leverage corporate transportation programs (e.g., shuttles, bike share) to benefit the community as a whole. Apple and other large employers operate shuttles, bike share, and other transportation programs to help their employees travel to and around Cupertino without a car. While employers may need to restrict access to some of these services in order to maintain corporate security, there may be opportunities to expand on some existing corporate transportation programs – such as bike share – to serve the broader community. o Lead Agency: Public Works, Planning, Economic Development o Partners: Major Employers 41 Draft Economic Development Strategic Plan | July 26, 2016 31 Category 2 Actions: • Work with regional and county agencies to explore new funding sources for local and regional transit improvements. As revenues from the federal and state gas taxes decline, funding for local and regional transportation improvements is becoming increasingly scarce. MTC and Bay Area cities and counties are exploring new options, including new taxes and fees (such as the proposed Santa Clara County Transportation Sales Tax Measure), revenues from California’s cap-and-trade program, and property-based land financing or “value capture” tools (such as Enhanced Infrastructure Financing Districts and Community Facilities Districts). By remaining actively involved in these conversations, Cupertino staff can ensure that the City is aware of emerging tools and sources, and represented in conversations about how funding should be allocated. o Lead Agency: Public Works, Planning • Pursue grants for high priority transportation projects, including bicycle and pedestrian improvements, as they become available. In addition to improvements on Stevens Creek, this could include walking and bicycling paths that connect employment areas with destinations such as local retail centers. o Lead Agency: Public Works, Planning • Prioritize investments in bicycle, pedestrian, and other transportation improvements that connect workers and workplaces with local retailers. These include bicycle paths and sidewalk improvements that directly connect the City’s major employment centers with retail and restaurant nodes. o Lead Agency: Public Works, Planning • As part of the approvals process for large commercial development projects, design a community benefits policy that encourages projects to provide transportation demand management (TDM) programs, potentially including funding for a community shuttle. As discussed above, the General Plan Mobility Element already contains a similar provision for ensuring major employers provide TDM programs. This policy could be extended to major development projects, and include incentives for developers (as well as employers and shopping center owners) to contribute funding for a community shuttle that would improve connections among major community destinations such as local civic and cultural centers, retail centers, schools, and nearby Caltrain stations. o Lead Agency: Planning ISSUE D: HOSPITALITY STRATEGY 10 Provide adequate hotel rooms and event venues to support the City's General Fund and meet business needs. Transient occupancy taxes (TOT) generated by hotels are a significant source of revenues to the City’s General Fund. Cupertino’s existing hotels perform very strongly, driven by business travel associated with the expanding tech sector. Occupancy rates are very high (approaching 90 percent on weekdays), and business travelers often struggle to find rooms in or near Cupertino unless they book well ahead. In addition, 42 Draft Economic Development Strategic Plan | July 26, 2016 32 because of the competition for hotel conference space, Cupertino civic organizations have struggled to find affordable space for meetings and events. The strong office market, along with Apple’s planned expansion, suggest that demand for hotel rooms in Cupertino will remain strong for the foreseeable future. Expanding the supply of hotel rooms and event space could help support Cupertino’s businesses and civic organizations, and support increased TOT revenues. In addition, enabling more business travelers to stay in Cupertino could help support local restaurants and other retailers. Category 1 Actions: • Monitor the need for additional hotel rooms and meeting space. Continue tracking hotel occupancy rates and conference bookings to determine whether the hotel supply is meeting demand. o Lead Agency: Planning, Economic Development Category 2 Actions: • Consider increasing allocation for new hotel development, prioritizing proposals that include ample meeting and event space for businesses and community use. As part of a public benefits agreement for a new hotel project, the City Council could require developers to set aside low-cost space for civic and community organizations to hold events and meetings. o Lead Agency: Planning ISSUE E: MARKETING STRATEGY 11 Develop an integrated approach to marketing Cupertino to brokers, business owners, and others as a center for innovation and the heart of Silicon Valley. Cupertino is well known throughout the region – and the world – as the home of Apple, and the city is considered a highly prestigious business address second only to the North Valley cities of Palo Alto, Mountain View, and Menlo Park. The City’s current website and other marketing materials are largely geared towards highlighting business resources and promoting existing retailers and other local businesses and organizations. In order to help maintain and expand the City’s reputation and attract a diverse range of businesses, these materials could be repositioned to communicate more directly to the business community and market the City’s unique assets, including its innovative tech sector, central location, and highly skilled workforce. Ongoing City Efforts: • Continue “Cupertino Business Buzz” electronic business newsletter featuring updates on local small businesses. The Business Buzz is published on a quarterly basis and highlights business resources and events as well as city initiatives related to economic development. o Lead Agency: Economic Development • Continue to offer the GreenBiz Cupertino program, which provides support to interested small/mid-size businesses, non-profit organizations, and schools in navigating the statewide 43 Draft Economic Development Strategic Plan | July 26, 2016 33 Green Business Program certification process. The City’s GreenBiz team works with businesses to create a plan for conserving energy and water, minimizing material use and disposal, preventing pollution, and cutting costs. The team also connects businesses to services, free equipment, and financial incentives to help achieve certification requirements. The program has been recognized as a leader in environmental sustainability with awards from ICLEI, the Silicon Valley Leadership Group, Green Technology, and Acterra. o Lead Agency: GreenBiz Cupertino Category 1 Actions: • Update the City's marketing materials with current economic data. The City’s website and market materials require regular updating in order to provide more current information on demographics, employment by sector, and top sales tax producers. o Lead Agency: Economic Development • Update the Economic Development and business-related webpages as part of the City's overall website redesign. Economic Development can partner with the City’s Communications team to upgrade business-related webpages and ensure consistency with the redesigned City website. o Lead Agencies: Economic Development, Communications • Expand the resources available on the Economic Development website by providing links to or embedding maps and information from other relevant websites. For example, this could include the Silicon Valley Economic Development Alliance’s commercial real estate listing website (AREAS Silicon Valley), and the business resources available on the Santa Clara County Library District’s website. o Lead Agencies: Economic Development, Communications Category 2 Actions: • Partner with other West Valley cities to develop marketing materials that market the sub- region as a center of innovation. The City may consider partnering with other West Valley cities, which share some common characteristics, to broaden the reach of its marketing efforts and establish the West Valley as a hub of innovation. This coordination could take place through the Silicon Economic Development Alliance, which is comprised city and county economic development professionals throughout San Mateo, Santa Clara, Santa Cruz, and southern Alameda Counties and of which Cupertino is an active member. o Lead Agency: Economic Development o Partners: Silicon Valley Economic Development Alliance Category 3 Actions: • Develop a brand identity focused on economic development (logo, wordmark, and colors) The City could develop a new brand identity (separate from the existing citywide identity) to support economic development initiatives. The brand identity would be intended to communicate Cupertino’s economic development assets, such as the City’s deep roots in the innovation industries. The marketing identity should be developed through a collaborative process involving focus groups, one-on-one interviews, and other outreach to the business community to help define a focused marketing approach. The City may also wish to hire a marketing and communications 44 Draft Economic Development Strategic Plan | July 26, 2016 34 specialist to assist with this effort. The text box below provides examples of brand identities developed by the cities of Fremont, San Jose, and Santa Cruz. o Lead Agencies: Economic Development, Communications o Partners: Chamber of Commerce, Businesses • Redesign the Economic Development website, “Cupertino Business Buzz” electronic business newsletter, and other marketing efforts with a consistent brand. As part of establishing a consistent brand for economic development, review existing communications materials to identify potential areas for improvement, and create new materials as necessary to reflect the brand. o Lead Agencies: Economic Development, Communications o Partners: Chamber of Commerce, Businesses 45 Draft Economic Development Strategic Plan | July 26, 2016 35 Branding and Marketing Campaign in Fremont, Santa Cruz, and San Jose In 2013, Fremont commissioned a communications consulting firm to help with a media relations campaign. This effort led to the creation of a state-of-the-art website, thinksiliconvalley.com, devoted to the City’s economic development communications. The website introduces and reinforces a branding message that closely associates the City with Silicon Valley, by dubbing Fremont “Silicon Valley East.” Other cities looking to attract business investment, such as Santa Cruz and San Jose, have also rolled out visually appealing web presences that rely on many of the principles a typical startup venture would use. Common to all these websites are a prominent brand message (San Jose is “The Capital of Opportunity”, while Santa Cruz is “Where Work & Culture Converge”), vivid imagery (particularly through photographs), and evolving content, though a blog, newsfeed, and links to social media.

Recommended Action Approve revisions to the Silicon Valley Regional Interoperability Authority joint powers authority to add a new member, the Santa Clara Valley Transportation Authority. Summary The Silicon Valley Regional Interoperability Authority (SVRIA) represents the interests of all public safety agencies in Santa Clara County through its 15 municipal members. Its service area is the Santa Clara Operational Area which includes Santa Clara County’s fifteen cities and towns, and all special districts. This joint powers authority (JPA) was formed to enhance and improve communications, data sharing and other technological systems, tools and processes for protection of the public and public safety and to facilitate related local and regional cooperative efforts. On May 26, 2016, the Board of Directors of the SVRIA reviewed and recommended changes to the JPA to add the Valley Transportation Authority (VTA) as a voting member of the Board of Directors. These changes were based upon input from the Working Committee, City Attorneys, City Managers, County Administrator, and VTA as well as direction from the SVRIA Board. In the summer of 2015, VTA entered into a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with the SVRIA to become a participant in the Silicon Valley Regional Communication System (SVRCS). As part of their request, VTA agreed to share the costs of SVRCS. In addition, VTA required that they receive two seats on the Board of Directors of SVRIA. One of VTA’s seats will be an elected member of VTA’s Board or of its Policy Committee. The second Board seat will be designated for the VTA’s General Manager or designee. VTA brings approximately 2000 new users into the SVRCS. This would make VTA the third largest member in SVRIA, after the City of San Jose and Santa Clara County. In addition, VTA will make proportionate capital payments to the SVRCS in an amount totaling approximately $5,500,000 over three years. Starting in FY 2018-19, VTA would begin making annual operations and maintenance payments in excess of $700,000. By adding this additional 199 2 Member, all other Member dues will be reduced. VTA has requested two Board seats. This is proportionate with VTA’s size and status as the third largest Member of SVRIA. The JPA requires that any changes to the JPA be approved unanimously. Thus, these changes will require approval every City and the County Council. The changes recommended by the SVRIA Board of Directors reflect VTA’s requests and those of the Working Committee, County Administrator and City Managers. Any additional changes at this time would require the approval of the Working Committee and Board of Directors. This would substantially delay VTA’s entry onto the Board and SVRIA. SVRIA’s goal is to complete the review and approval by all current Members by September 1, 2016. The proposed changes are summarized below. 1. Cover page change made to reflect the Restatement Date to be filled in following unanimous approval of all Members of SVRIA. 2. Page 1, first paragraph, original Effective Date is described by including the original date of adoption of the JPA document in November, 2009. 3. Page 1, first paragraph, Restatement Date is included as the date of unanimous approval by all Members of SVRIA. 4. Page 1, Recital H added to explain that the changes made are based upon the request of VTA. 5. Page 2, Section 1.9, the definition of Members is expanded to include the Santa Clara Valley Transportation Authority (VTA). 6. Page 3, Section 1.12 added to define Restatement Date as the date the JPA Restatement is unanimously approved by all of the Member Agencies. 7. Page 6, Section 3.5 was amended to correct a reference to Section 3.3 that should have been listed as Section 3.4. 8. Page 6, Section 4 Members is expanded to include VTA as of the Restatement Date. 9. Page 7, paragraph 5 amended to reflect the increase in total Board of Directors from nine to eleven. 10. Page 8, paragraph 5.1.8 is added to reflect the addition of two new Directors by VTA. Both new directors will be appointed by the VTA’s Board of Directors. One Director will be VTA General Manager or his or her designee of an Executive Level Staff Member and one Director will be an elected member of the VTA Board of Directors or Policy Advisory Committee from a City or Town that does not have a current member on the Board of Directors of SVRIA. 11. Page 8, Section 5.1.8, addition of last sentence of paragraph of: “Future Directors appointed to any seat may not be from the cities or town already represented by the VTA Directors.” This requested change was made to make clear that any future Director appointment would not cause the sitting VTA Director to need to resign as any future appointment would need to be from a City not already on the Board. 12. Page 8, Paragraph under Section 5.1.8, addition of the following sentence: “If a Di rector shall cease to be an employee of VTA, his or her seat shall be deemed vacant.” The 200 3 rationale is that if the VTA employee Director is no longer employed by VTA he or she can longer be a SVRIA Director. 13. Page 8, Paragraph following Section 5.1.8 has had a provision added to reflect that one of the Board Members from VTA will be an employee of VTA. 14. Page 8, paragraph 5.2, the increase in the Board of Director’s quorum from 5 to 6 is listed. 15. Page 9, Section 5.5 has been amended to describe the procedure for Working Committee review of Board of Director’s Bylaw amendments. 16. Page 13, Section 7.6 has been amended to include a requirement for VTA to pay $13,157 within 30 days after the Restatement Date. 17. Page 11, paragraph 6.9.1.9 memorializes the already approved addition of two Committee Members from the VTA to the Working Committee. 18. Page 12, paragraph 6.9.3, this shows the increase in the quorum of the Working Committee from 6 to 7. 19. Page 14, Section 7.8.1 a provision was added as follows: “Notwithstanding the foregoing, on or after the Restatement Date, the Working Committee shall commission or obtain a cost allocation study which considers usage, overhead, and other reasonable cost factors and with that data shall propose, subject to the adoption of the Board, an allocation methodology for the VTA that is not based on population.” The intent of this change is to address a formula for VTA participation for any future project that is outside of the SVRCS. Sustainability Impact No impact. Fiscal Impact If the JPA restatement is approved by all current Members of the SVRIA and VTA completes the remaining requirements, Cupertino’s costs will be reduced given SVRCS’s fixed costs will be spread over more Members.

The Board shall approve any such proposed cost allocation. 7.11. Limited Scope Agreements.

Population Share. Half of the adopted Annual Operating Costs shall be allocated to the Members based on their respective population (the “Population Share”). Each Member shall pay a portion of the Population Share which shall be determined based on that Member’s population. The Population Share, each Member’s share of the Population Share shall be determined pursuant to the funding policy adopted by the Board at its initial meeting, as may be amended. The funding policy shall specify the accepted method for calculating each Member’s population (e.g., census data). Notwithstanding the foregoing, on or after the Restatement Date, the Working Committee shall commission or obtain a cost allocation study which considers usage, overhead, and other reasonable cost factors and with that data shall propose, subject to the adoption of the Board, an allocation methodology for the VTA that is not based on population. 7.8.1. 7.8.2. Membership Share. Half of the adopted Annual Operating Costs shall be allocated to the Members based on the principle that Members share these costs equally, except that the Smaller Members shall pay 60% of a Full Share (the “Membership Share”).

Each Member’s share of the adopted Annual Systems Maintenance Costs shall be calculated according to the formula implementing the principles in Section 7.9.1 contained in the funding policy adopted by the Board at its initial meeting, as may be amended. 7.10. Other Projects, Programs and Services. In the event that a project, program, service, or reserve fund is approved which has costs that are not Annual Operating Costs or the Annual Systems Maintenance Costs, the Working Committee shall either (a) develop a proposed cost allocation formula for the non-overhead costs based on the principle that costs shall be assessed to Members based on usage but, if usage data or projected usage data is not available, until sufficient data is available, Member population and entity type data are acceptable proxies for usage or (b) conduct or obtain a cost allocation study which considers usage, overhead, and other reasonable cost factors. The Board shall approve any such proposed cost allocation. 7.11. Limited Scope Agreements. Where a project or program is intentionally designed to be limited in scope such that it only provides benefits to particular Members, the Authority may enter into specific project or program agreements that provide for cost sharing by the particular affected Members; provided however, both the Board and Working Committee must approve such agreements. 7.12. Contributions on Behalf of Members. Special Districts or other parties may tender to the Authority those contributions due from a Member on that Member’s behalf. ARTICLE 8 –GENERAL PROVISIONS 8.

Recommended Action Authorize the City Manager to negotiate and execute a contract with Dan Gertmenian for the Math Olympiad program and Chess Instruction for the one-year period of August 1, 2016 - June 30, 2017. Description The City currently has an agreement with Dan Gertmenian to provide instruction for the Math Olympiad program, which is taught to youths in grades 4-8. Due to the success of the program, the annual contract will exceed the $175,000 threshold for the coming year, therefore requiring City Council approval. Discussion The Math Olympiads program is currently one of the most popular academic/enrichment programs to be offered by the Recreation and Community Services Department. During the 2015/16 school year, there were 347 students enrolled in the program, and the gross revenue ($318,000) surpassed last year’s amount by 15%. Staff has increased the class fee by 9% to meet the growing demand from the community for the program and the additional staffing requirements by the contractor. Staff will continue to conduct informal market analyses to ensure the Math Olympiads program remains fiscally competitive with outside organizations. Chess may continue to be offered for the 2016/17 year, but this will depend on the overall demand of both programs; the requested encumbered amount has taken into account the additional compensation of the chess program. Fiscal Impact City staff anticipates that the Math Olympiad program class will generate approximately $343,000 in gross revenue with an offset of $240,000 to the Consultant. ___________________________________ Prepared by: Danny Mestizo, Recreation Coordinator Reviewed by: Dave Jahns, Recreation Supervisor Reviewed by: Christine Hanel, Acting Director of Recreation and Community Services Approved for Submission by: David Brandt, City Manager Attachment: A- Draft Agreement 309 1 NO.______________________ FY 16-17 AGREEMENT BETWEEN THE CITY OF CUPERTINO AND DAN GERTMENIAN FOR MATH AND CHESS INSTRUCTION SERVICES THIS AGREEMENT, for reference dated July 1, 2016, is by and between CITY OF CUPERTINO, a municipal corporation (hereinafter referred to as "City"), and Dan Gertmenian, a sole proprietor, whose address is 167 Acalenes Drive #15, Sunnyvale, CA 94086(hereinafter referred to as "Consultant"), and is made with reference to the following: RECITALS: A.

In general, any individual who, in the ordinary course of their employment, has contact with children is a mandated reporter. Mandated reporters include child care workers, teachers and coaches. (California Penal Code 11165.7). If your job duties as an employee or an independent contractor of Dan Gertmenian include contact with children, you are a Mandated Reporter. Prior to commencing employment and as a prerequisite of that employment, California law requires that you sign a statement to the effect that you have knowledge of the provisions of the Mandated Reporter Law, and will comply with those provisions. (California Penal Code 11166.5). The following are the Mandated Reporter responsibilities under California law. You are also being provided with a separate informational document which includes the text of the California Mandated Reporter Law and contact information for Child Abuse and Neglect Reporting for the County of Santa Clara. Please review this information carefully and acknowledge your receipt and understanding where indicated. If you have questions or concerns about this form or your Mandated Reporter responsibilities, please contact the Recreation Supervisor at 408-777-3120.

(Cal. Pen. Code 11165 et. seq.) I further understand that I may, but am not required to, report suspected Emotional Abuse.  If I reasonably suspect that a child is being abused, I must immediately make a telephone report. I must follow up with a written report within 36 hours. This report may be made to local law enforcement, or County Sheriff’s Department, Probation Department or Child Welfare Agency. (Cal Pen. Code 11166(a)). 320 12  I am not required to, but I may, share information about suspected abuse with my supervisor or management or the parents of the alleged victim.  When I make a mandated report, I will be required to give my name. However, my identity will be kept confidential unless I either consent to disclosure or if the disclosure is made pursuant to a court order. Further, agencies investigating the mandated report may disclose my identity to one another. (Cal Pen. Code 11167(d)).  The following agencies and individuals receiving or investigating mandated reports may disclose my identity to one another: o Prosecutors in a criminal prosecuting or in an action initiated under section 602 of the Welfare and Institutions Code arising from alleged child abuse; o Counsel appointed pursuant to subdivision (c) of Section 317 of the Welfare and Institutions Code; o A licensing agency when abuse or neglect in out-of-home care is reasonably suspected. (Cal Pen. Code 11167.5)  I may not be disciplined, dismissed, retaliated against, discriminated against or harassed for making a mandated report of reasonably suspected child abuse.  As a Mandated Reporter, I have civil and criminal immunity when making a report (Cal Pen. Code 11172).  As a Mandated Reporter, it is a misdemeanor to fail to comply with Mandated Reporting laws and I can be held criminally liable for failing to report suspected abuse. The penalty for this is up to six months in County jail, a fine of not more than $1000, or both. I further understand I could be civilly liable for failure to report. (Cal. Pen. Code 11166(c)). I have been provided with a copy of California Penal Code sections 11164-11174.3 (Mandated Reporter Law). I understand that I am a legally Mandated Reporter. I am aware of and understand my responsibilities under the Mandated Reporter laws of this state and am willing and able to comply. I understand that a copy of this Acknowledgement will be kept in my personnel file. ____________________________ __________________________ Name (Signature) Date ____________________________ Name (Print) 321 13 EXHIBIT C City of Cupertino Consultant Declaration The undersigned does hereby certify that: 1.

Discussion On July 26, 2016, the City received two bids for the 2016/17 Reconstruction of Curbs, Gutters and Sidewalks Project. The concrete improvements to be completed by this project support the annual paving projects by providing on-street accessibility improvements, repairing uplifted sidewalks, and resolving gutter drainage issues on streets scheduled for asphalt improvements. Additionally, this project will perform other concrete repairs at various locations throughout the City. The following is a summary of bids deemed complete: Bidder Bid Amount Engineers Estimate $1,641,158 Spencon Construction, Inc. $1,934,818 JJR Construction, Inc. $1,993,015 The lowest responsive bid for this project is 17.75% above the engineers estimate. The engineers estimate for this project was based upon favorable competitively bid unit costs of a similar project awarded this past November. An increase in concrete material cost was the likely factor in the two bids coming in above the estimate. Spencon Construction, Inc. has satisfactory completed prior concrete projects for the City. With the scope and quantity of work fixed for this project, there is no advantage in rejecting and rebidding this work. Additionally, each week of favorable weather is critical to meet the overall construction schedule. This project will start as early as this month. Sustainability Impact No sustainability impact. 333 Fiscal Impact Award of the project will result in a fiscal impact of up to $2,000,000. Sufficient funds have been budgeted and are available from account numbers 270-85-820-900-922 (Concrete Maintenance) and 270-85-821-921 (Street Pavement Maintenance). _____________________________________ Prepared by: Roger Lee, Assistant Director of Public Works Reviewed by: Timm Borden, Director of Public Works Approved for Submission by: David Brandt, City Manager Attachments: A – Bid Summary B - Draft Contract 334 FY 16/17 Reconstruction of Curbs, Gutters and Sidewalks ATTACHMENT A Bid Results Bid Opening July 26, 2016 Unit Cost Total Cost Unit Cost Total Cost Unit Cost Total Cost A OVER ONE (1) CU.

The proposed changes clarify and expand procedures and requirements for (1) Section 2.2 on Conflict of Interest to exclude from purchase or rent of any BMR unit any City or consultant employees and officials who have policy-making authority or influence regarding City housing programs, participate in making decisions regarding City housing programs, administer City housing programs, or whose salary is paid in any part from a City housing program; and (2) Section 5.0 on the Appeal Process to streamline the process and to ensure that an appeal can be concluded before a BMR unit is sold. Recommended Action Adopt the draft resolution amending the Policy and Procedures Manual for Administering Deed-Restricted Affordable Housing Units (Below Market Rate (BMR) Manual). Background Under Chapter 19.172 of the Cupertino Municipal Code, the City administers a Below Market Rate Housing Program (the "BMR Program") to provide housing affordable to a broad range of households with varying income levels within the City. The City administers the BMR Program under the guidelines included in the Policy and Procedures Manual for Administering Deed Restricted Affordable Housing Units (the "BMR Manual"). The City contracts with West Valley Community Services ("WVCS") to manage the BMR Program, including the determination of eligibility of potential homebuyers. The City has become aware of various issues regarding appeal procedures and conflicts of interest in relation to the BMR Program. Staff recommends that the City Council adopt the 359 proposed amendments shown in Attachment C to this report and discussed in detail below. Recommended Changes to BMR Manual Conflict of Interest The recommended changes in Section 2.2 would broaden the conflict of interest policies to exclude from purchase or rent of any BMR unit any City or consultant employees and officials who have policy-making authority or influence regarding City housing programs, participate in making decisions regarding City housing programs, administer City housing programs, or whose salary is paid in any part from a City housing program. If any employee of a consultant, such as an employee of WVCS, is on the waiting list for a particular BMR unit, all review of the application would be done by the City and n ot the consultant. All consultants, including WVCS, would be required to inform the City of any employee that is being considered for purchase or rent of a unit. The adoption of the resolution would adopt the proposed amendments regarding the applicant appeal process and conflict of interest policy shown in Attachment C. The proposed amendments to the BMR Manual were submitted to the Housing Commission at its meeting of June 23, 2016. Commissioners supported the amendments 3-0 (two members absent). Appeal Process WVCS administers the City's BMR Program, including marketing the BMR Program, reviewing applications for BMR units, maintaining a waiting list of qualified applicants, and reviewing applicants' incomes to determine if they are eligible to rent or purchase a BMR unit. If applicants are dissatisfied with decisions made by WVCS, applicants may appeal the WVCS decisions. The current appeal process involves four levels of appeal at WVCS to the following individuals or groups in the following order: (1) the Associate Director, (2) the Executive Director, (3) the Board of Directors Administration Committee, and (4) the full Board of Directors. Separately, the BMR Manual provides for an appeal within 10 days to the Housing Commission, to be forwarded to the City Council for final ruling. This appeal process is lengthy and, given WVCS Board, Housing Commission, and City Council meeting schedules, can well extend for a four- to five-month period. 360 Under the resale restriction agreement recorded against each BMR unit, when an owner decides to sell the unit, the City has an option to purchase the unit at a restricted price. The City then assigns its option to the next qualified buyer on the waiting list. However, once the City provides notice that it is exercising its option to purchase the BMR unit, escrow on the unit must close within 90 days from the date of the City notice. The current appeal process is too long to accommodate this closing window, and any appeal cannot be finally resolved before the unit must be sold. Extending the 90-day period for closing would be inconsistent with the existing recorded agreements and would significantly disadvantage the seller. Therefore, the recommended changes would reduce the appeal process to two levels and limit the process to 60 days total for both the WVCS appeal and the City appeal. Additionally, because such appeals involve sensitive personal information regarding income, staff recommends that the appeal to the City be heard by an outside hearing officer, as is typical for most public agencies, such as housing authorities, that administer housing programs. The recommended changes in Section 5.0 would allow an applicant 10 days to send a written appeal to WVCS, and would reduce the WVCS appeal process from four tiers to only one tier, with the Executive Director providing a decision on the appeal within 10 days from receipt of the notice from the applicant. If the applicant is dissatisfied after the WVCS appeal, the applicant then would have an additional 10 days to submit a written appeal to the City. Any appeal to the City would be heard by an outside hearing officer within 30 days from the date of receipt of the written appeal. In any decision made by WVCS, the appeal process should be clearly communicated to the applicant. Finally, during the appeal period, the recommended changes would provide that the sale of the BMR unit could not take place pending the final resolution of the applicant's appeal. It is therefore crucial that the entire appeal process be completed in a timely manner. The Housing Commission is currently reviewing one appeal. The revised procedures would not apply to this appeal. Additional Changes Being Considered in BMR Manual The Housing Commission, at its August 11th meeting, will review other possible changes to the BMR Manual, including the City Council's suggestion that preferences be added for teachers and other public employees. However, the amendment to the appeal procedures, in particular, is time-critical to ensure that an appeal can be concluded before a BMR unit is sold. Sustainability Impact 361 None. Fiscal Impact In the event of an appeal to the City, the City would need to hire an outside hearing officer to hear the appeal.

Cupertino Municipal Code, this manual establishes procedures for the on-going administration of the inventory of affordable units, also referred to as Below Market Rate (BMR) units, created by the City of Cupertino’s Residential Housing Mitigation Program. The manual includes procedures and guidelines for prioritizing applicants, evaluating the eligibility of applicants, setting maximum affordable rents and sales prices, and monitoring compliance of tenants and homeowners with the recorded affordability covenants. The manual will provide guidance to City staff, the City’s program administrator, BMR homeowners, B M R renters, a n d p r o p e r t y m a n a g e r s of rental complexes that contain BMR units. The a t t a c h e d exhibits and certain portions of this manual will be updated as necessary to comply with regulation s and policies o f th e United States Depar tmen t o f Housing and Urban Development ( HUD), State of California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD), and City Housing Element and zoning ordinance. A separate manual, the “Below Market Rate (BMR) Housing Mitigation Program Procedural Manual,” describes the procedures for implementing requirements applicable to developers under the Residential Housing Mitigation Program. The City of Cupertino has overall responsibility for the BMR program although the administration may be contracted out to another agency. The guidelines in this Manual must be interpreted in conjunction with the City’s Housing Element, zoning, and documents implementing the BMR program. 369 2 2.0 Applicant Selection Process 2.1 Minimum Tenant/Homebuyer Eligibility Requirements Every tenant or purchaser of a BMR unit must meet specific minimum eligibility requirements, as follows:  Annual household income (including the income of all household members 18 years of age and older) must not exceed the maximum income limits established for the BMR unit;  All owners must live in the BMR unit as a primary residence;  Potential BMR homeowners must meet the definition of a first-time homebuyer; and  Potential BMR homeowners must be able to obtain primary mortgage financing and have a minimum of 5.0% of the BMR purchase price for down payment plus closing costs (gift funds are allowed) 2.2 Conflict of Interest The following individuals are ineligible to purchase or rent a BMR unit:  City employees and officials (and their immediate family members and dependents) who have policy-making authority or influence regarding City housing programs, participate in making decisions regarding City housing programs, administer City housing programs, or whose salary is paid in any part from a City housing program;  Any consultant to the City and employees of the consultant (and their immediate family members and dependents) who have policy-making authority or influence regarding City housing programs, participate in making decisions regarding City housing programs, administer City housing programs, or whose salary is paid in any part from a City housing program;  An applicant for or developer of the project containing the BMR units and its officers and employees (and their immediate family members), and the property owner of the project and its officers and employees (and their immediate family members); or  Any other individual who has a conflict of interest as defined by federal or state law or the City’s adopted Conflict of Interest Code. In addition, if an employee of any consultant involved with City housing programs is on the waiting list for any BMR unit, all review of that employee’s application must be performed by the City. 2.3 Priority Point Placement System The City has established a priority point placement system that reflects the City’s priorities regarding placement of households into the limited number of BMR affordable units in the City. While not a minimum requirement, the selection of BMR tenants and homebuyers 370 3 will be based on a pr iority point placement system that reflects the City’s priorities regarding placement of households into the limited number of BMR affordable units in the City. Under the priority point placement system, preference is given to applicants who live and/or work in Cupertino, including public service employees. The priority point placement system point scale is listed below. Applicants can receive up to a maximum of three points based on the following criteria below: One Point = Cupertino resident Two Points = Employment in Cupertino Applicants receiving three points shall be considered the highest priority Applicants receiving two points shall be considered the second highest priority Applicants receiving one point shall be considered the third highest priority Applicants receiving zero points shall be considered the lowest priority In addition, applicants who have been displaced from rental housing in Cupertino by public or private redevelopment shall receive a priority over all other applicants. 2.3.1 BMR Applicant Waiting Lists The waitlist application period for BMR for-sale and rental units will open on the first business day of October annually. At that time BMR for-sale and rental unit eligibility forms will be accepted. The waitlist application period will close on the last business day of October annually. Within 30 business days of the submission deadline (last business day of October); the Cit y or its agent will conduct a lottery. Each Eligibility Form will be separated into categories with equivalent priority points, and then randomly assigned a number to be put on the waitlist. Along with the City or its agent, two witnesses assist with the lottery. All candidates will be mailed results of their applications by the end of December annually specifying if they have been denied or approved, and if approved, their applicant number on the waitlist. When selecting BMR tenants or homebuyers for an available BMR unit, the City or its agent will first attempt to identify an eligible household from the highest priority group within the appropriate applicant pool and income designation. BMR units that become available will be offered based upon the order of the waitlist within each priority group. If there is no eligible household in the highest priority group, the City or its agent will then look at applicants in the second highest priority group and so on. 2.3.2 Applicant’s Right to Refuse BMR Unit An applicant has two opportunities annually to refuse a BMR unit and retain their place on the waitlist. If an applicant refuses a third time, then they will be placed at the bottom of the waitlist. 2.3.3 Housing Constructed for People with Disabilities 371 4 Some BMR units may be specially constructed to be accessible for people with disabilities. In the event that an accessible unit becomes available, persons with disabilities on the waitlist will be provided a preference for those BMR units. 2.3.4 Requests for Reasonable Accommodation. If an applicant or member of the applicant’s household has a disability or handicap, an applicant may request a reasonable accommodation in the City’s policies or procedures so that the applicant may take advantage of the City’s BMR program. Examples may include making large-type documents or a reader available to visually impaired applicants, permitting an outside agency to assist with the application process, or allowing another family member to co-sign a loan or lease. An applicant may request a reasonable accommodation at any time in the application process or after having been selected for a BMR unit. 2.3.5 Household Minimum Size to Occupy the BMR Unit To ensure that the City's limited BMR units are used efficiently, a household must be of a size equal to the number of bedrooms in the BMR unit. For instance, to be eligible to purchase a three- bedroom unit, a household must contain at least three members. Minimum household size occupancy standards for BMR units are: 1 bedroom unit = 1 persons 2 bedroom unit = 2 persons 3 bedroom unit = 3 persons 4 bedroom unit = 4 persons 2.3.6 Solicitation of Applicants Applications for BMR rental and ownership units shall be solicited as necessary to maintain an adequate number of applications in each of the following applicant pools: • Very Low Income (up to 50% AMI) – BMR Rental Units • Low Income (up to 80% AMI) – BMR Rental Units • Median Income (up to 100% AMI) – BMR Ownership Units • Moderate Income (up to 120% AMI) – BMR Ownership Units Outreach shall be conducted through the City’s website, program brochures, community workshops, presentations and periodic print media advertising. The City and/or its agent shall be responsible for updating the content on the City’s website and distributing program brochures that are culturally and linguistically appropriate to the community. These brochures will be available at City Hall, the Cupertino Public Library, the Quinlan Community Center, the Cupertino Senior Center and other appropriate locations. Furthermore, the City or its agent shall conduct outreach efforts through local media that are culturall y and linguistically appropriate to the community. 2.3.7 Submitting an Eligibility Form for a BMR Unit 372 5 A sample copy of the BMR Eligibility Form for purchasing or renting is provided as Exhibit 1. 2.3.8 Eligibility Process to Reapply on BMR Waitlist Each year the BMR waitlist resets. For example, even if a BMR applicant scored three points based on the priority point system in a given year, the same priority is not guaranteed for the following year. All prospective candidates must apply annually in October even if the candidate was on the BMR waitlist the prior year, except that displacees must apply within 90 days of receiving a displacement notice. Candidates must keep the City or its agent informed about their current mailing address, telephone contact information, employment information, household composition, or any substantial changes in income that may affect the applicant’s eligibility to remain on the waitlist. 2.3.9 Application Fees BMR application and administrative fees ma y change from time to time. As a result, the most recently approved application and administrative fees will be disclosed by the City or its agent at the time of application annually in October for both BMR for-sale and rental units. There will be no annual fee to maintain an applicant’s place on the waitlist. Exhibit 2 shows a sample copy of the BMR application with required documentation to be certified for the BMR program. 2.3.10 Definition of Employment in Cupertino A letter or verifi cation of employment shall serve as sufficient proof of employment in Cupertino. 2.4 Annual Gross Income Annual household income is defined pursuant to the U.S. Code of Federal Regulations and provided on the website of the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development at: http://portal.hud.gov/hudportal/documents/huddoc?id=DOC_35699.pdf Exhibit 3 provides the definitions of what is included and excluded from the determination of annual gross income in accordance with the U.S. Code of Regulations.

If the City or its agent should discover that a contract was completed by a purchaser or renter who intentionally made false statements or misrepresented the facts in order to appear eligible, the City will treat this as a breach of the resale and/or rental restrictions and may exercise any remedies allowed under the resale and/or rental agreement including a forced sale of the unit or eviction and the imposition of any civil penalties that apply. 3.0 Ownership Units Requirements for Buying a BMR Unit 3.1 Income Limits for Ownership Units The BMR for-sale program is designed to assist first-time median and moderate-income homebuyers. The BMR for-sale program uses income limits published by HCD annuall y for Santa Clara County, per household size. HCD’s income limits include the median and moderate-income categories and income limits are adjusted per household size. BM R fo r -s al e p ro g ram income limits per household size are published annuall y in the City’s BMR program brochure. An example of median and moderate-income ranges is listed below. 375 8 • Median Income (up to 100% AMI) – BMR Ownership Units • Moderate Income (up to 120% AMI) – BMR Ownership Units 3.1.1 Co-applicants The City or its agent will accept one application per household. A co-applicant is defined as an adult member of the household whether related or unrelated who intends to apply for the BMR unit, be on the title of the property with the applicant, and occupy the unit as his or her primary residence. The combined income and assets of all adult members of the household (including co- applicants) to purchase a BMR unit must not exceed the maximum income limits per household size and asset limitations of the program. All co-applicants must go through the same process a s the a ppli cant and must agree to comply with the program requirements. Non-occupant co-signors are not allowed to assist with the BMR purchase. 3.1.2 Household Composition A household is comprised of one or more persons who may or may not be related. An unborn child can be counted in family s ize once there is medical confirmation of pregnancy. An adoption in process will be counted in family size with verification of the adoption process being underway. A child will be considered part of the household when the child lives with a single parent for at least 75% of the time or in instances of joint custody, at least 50%. The applicant will need to submit a copy of the divorce decree and/or child custody agreement as verifiable documentation. If a divorce is in process, it may not be possible to qualify an applicant because family size and financial status are unclear. If the applicants are proposing to combine households with the purchase of the BMR, the combined household must meet eligibility requirements and combined income must meet the household income limits. 3.2 Asset Limit for Ownership Units Households with net assets over $100,000 held in the United States or foreign countries will not be eligible to purchase a BMR home. Excluded from net assets are: 1) all non- accessible funds, including any assets that generate a penalty when withdrawn i.e. 401K, CALPERS, STRS and other pension plans; and 2) assets that will be used to fund the down payments. Section 2.4 of this manual defines assets and provides the documents that must be submitted to support the calculation of assets. 3.3. Definition of First-time Homebuyer An applicant must be a first-time homebuyer to be considered for a BMR for-sale unit. An applicant shall be considered a first-time homebuyer if they have not owned a home for at least three years. This definition applies to properties owned in foreign countries as well as the United States. An exception will be made for people who were homeowners prior 376 9 to a divorce or legal separation. The City or its agent may verify first-time homebuyer status by (1) reviewing mortgage deductions on the three most recent years of federal tax returns for each adult in the applicant’s household; (2) a signed statement on the application stating homeownership status: and (3) a title search. 3.4 Affordable Sale Price Determination 3.4.1 Initial Prices of Newly Constructed Units Newly constructed initial BMR sales prices will be determined by the City or its agent. The City or its agent will calculate newl y constructed initial BMR sales prices for both median and moderate-income based on the maximum affordable housing cost provisions of Section 50052.5 of the California Health and Safety Code and most recent published HCD income limits. 3.4.2. Prices of Existing BMR Units Resale prices for existing BMR units will be determined by the City or its agent. The City or its agent will reference the Occupancy, Refinancing, and Resale Restriction Agreement with Option to Purchase (Resale Agreement) recorded on the title of the existing BMR unit when calculating the BMR resale price. 3.5 Financing 3.5.1 Lenders Prospective purchasers of BMR units must seek and obtain t h ei r ow n primary mortgage financing in order to purchase a BMR unit. There is no prearranged City financing; however the Cit y and its agent maintain a list of City approved BMR lending institutions who have provided written confirmation through their underwriting and/or bond department that their lending institution is able to provide primary mortgage financing with the City’s BMR requirements. In order to qualify as an approved BMR lender the institution must have reviewed and approved the City’s Resale Restriction Agreement, Deed of Trust and Promissory Note in advance. From time to time the City may require additional training in order for a lending institution to maintain its status as an approved City BMR lender. 3.5.2 Loan Requirements The primary first mortgage loan must be a fully amortized 30-year term fixed principal and interest loan. Interest only loans, negative amortization loans, adjustable rate loans and reverse mortgage loans are not permitted. In some cases the primary 30-year fixed principal and interest loan may be combined with down payment assistance, mortgage assistance or a community program second loan. Under this scenario the primary and secondary lenders must receive written approval from 377 10 the City. 3.6 Insurance Requirements Prior to the sale of any unit, the City shall require that each purchaser secure a standard homeowner’s insurance policy, with the City named as an additional insured. The City will be entitled to any policy proceeds in excess of the affordable unit purchase price if the proceeds are not used to rebuild the home. The insurance policy shall be in an amount equal to the replacement value of the home. At least every five (5) years, the replacement value must be reviewed and adjusted as needed. If the owner hires a contractor to work on the home, the contractor must be licensed and carry liability and workers compensation insurance. 3.7 Required Pre-Purchase Education After the applicant is placed on the BMR Homeownership waitlist and before receiving an offer to purchase a BMR unit, the applicant(s) must attend a BMR pre-purchase education workshop or program offered by the City of Cupertino or a qualified HUD approved agency. If an applicant completes the H U D a p p r o v ed w o r ks h op or C it y a p p r o v e d program, the applicant will receive a certificate of completion. The certificate of completion must be provided as proof of participation in the workshop or program and will be submitted at, or prior to, close of escrow. The applicant must complete pre-purchase education within a reasonable timeframe established by the City or its agent, or the applicant will be removed from the waitlist. 3.8 Minimum Cash Available The applicant(s) should have sufficient readily available assets for a minimum of 5% of the purchase price for down payment, plus closing costs and other associated fees. Gifts funds can be applied towards applicant’s 5% down payment assistance; a signed gift letter is required b y all parties involved. 3.9 Documents for Completing Home Purchase The following documents must be read and signed by the Owner(s) before the sale or resale of a BMR unit is completed: • Buyer's Disclosure Statement (Exhibit 4) • Promissory Note • Deed of Trust • Occupancy, Refinancing, and Resale Restriction Agreement with Option to Purchase (Resale Agreement) • Request for Notice Under Section 2924b of California Civil Code The Resale Agreement requires owners of BMR units to live in their home as their principal place of residence and prohibits renting the home except in cases of hardship. It 378 11 also limits the price at which the homes can be sold. If the owner sells the home above the restricted price, then the owner must pay the City the difference between the restricted price and the sales price. In addition, the owner must follow certain steps and procedures when deciding to sell the home. The City has an option to purchase a BMR home at the restricted price whenever the owner decides to sell the home or if the owner violates any agreements. The purpose of the Promissory Note, Resale Agreement, and Deed of Trust is to make sure that BMR homes remain affordable to other BMR households upon resale. The Buyer's Disclosure Statement is attached as Exhibit 4 and should be reviewed by all applicants who desire to purchase BMR homes. It summarizes the major provisions of the other documents to ensure that a BMR owner understands his or her obligations under the program. The City or its agent will provide the other documents to any interested applicant and to all applicants who are considered for purchase of a particular BMR unit. 3.10 Term of Affordability The deed restrictions imposed on each BMR affordable unit pursuant to the program shall remain in effect for a period of 99 years from the date of original sale of that unit. Furthermore, the resale restrictions shall renew at each change of title. 4.0 Rental Units Requirements for Renting a BMR Unit 4.1 Income Limits for BMR Rental Units The BMR rental program is designed to assist very low and low-income households.

The applicant will need to submit a copy of the divorce decree and/or child custody agreement as verifiable documentation. If a divorce is in process, it may not be possible to qualify an applicant because family size and financial status is unclear. 4.2 Applicant Assets For households applying to be a tenant of a BMR unit, the m a x i m u m a s s e t limit is equal to the maximum household income adjusted for household size that is allowable in order to be eligible for the program.

If an additional occupant (roommate, famil y member, etc.) moves into the BMR unit, he/she will be considered part of the existing household. In such cases, the BMR tenant must notify the Cit y or its agent prior to the move in date, and the entire household (including the new occupant) will be reevaluated to determine eligibility, including household income requirements. If the tenant(s) fail to receive approval from the City for any changes in occupancy or if the tenant(s) subleases the property, the tenant household will no longer be eligible to occupy the BMR unit. 4.7 Annual Rent Adjustments Maximum BMR rents will be adjusted annually based on the most recently published HCD income limits for Santa Clara County per household size and also in accordance with the California Health and Safety Code Section 50053.

If the renter fails to vacate the unit, the apartment owner/ property manager will institute evictions proceedings. On an annual basis, Requalification shall be based upon the BMR tenant’s household income, as determined by the three most recent pay stubs, prior year tax returns and household size. If a very low income BMR tenant’s household income increases and exceeds the BMR income limits for very low income household but does not exceed the BMR income limits for a BMR low income household, then the tenant's rent will be increased to BMR low income rents, and the tenant main remain in the unit until either a suitable BMR low income unit becomes available.

A reasonable accommodation is some modification or change that we can make to the policies or procedures that will assist an otherwise eligible applicant with a disability to take advantage of the City's BMR program. Examples of a reasonable accommodation include: • Making large type documents or a reader available to a vision impaired applicant during the application process; • Permitting an outside agency to assist an applicant with a disability to meet the property's screening criteria; or • Permitting a sign language interpreter to assist a hearing impaired applicant during the application process. An applicant that has a family member with a disability must sti ll be able to meet the essential obligations of the BMR program. Potential renters must be able to pay rent, care for their apartments, report required information to the owner, avoid disturbing neighbors, etc., but there is no requirement that they be able to do these things without assistance. Potential homeowners must have adequate income to support a mortgage and meet other eligibility criteria. If you or a member of your household has a disability or handicap and think you might need or want a reasonable accommodation, you may request it at any time in the application process.

The price that you are paying for your house is below the market rate, as required by the Inclusionary Housing Ordinance. In exchange for giving you the opportunity to buy your house at a below-market affordable price, the City will require you to sign a Promissory Note, Deed of Trust, and an Occupancy, Refinancing, and Resale Agreement with Option to Purchase (the "Resale Agreement"). The Deed of Trust and Resale Agreement will be recorded against your property. These documents are enforceable by the City. In general, the Promissory Note, Deed of Trust and the Resale Agreement set forth conditions that you must meet, including but not limited to the following:  The Resale Agreement requires you to live in your home as your principal place of residence and prohibits you from renting out your home.  The Resale Agreement places controls on the sale of your home. There is a limit to the price at which you can sell the home. If you sell the home above the restricted price, you must pay the City the difference between the restricted price and the sales price. In addition, you must follow certain steps and procedures when you decide to sell your  home.  The City has an option to purchase your home at a restricted price when you put the home up for sale or if you violate any agreements. The purpose of the Promissory Note, Resale Agreement, and Deed of Trust is to make sure that the City's goal of providing affordable homeownership opportunities to moderate income buyers continues to be met by keeping your house affordable to other moderate income households should you choose to sell or move. The City has helped you to buy a home; it wants to help others as well. This Disclosure Statement explains the major provisions of the Promissory Note, Deed of Trust, and Resale Agreement so that you will understand their requirements. You should, of course, read the entire Promissory Note, the Resale Agreement, and the Deed of Trust and become familiar with them if you are considered for the purchase of a particular BMR home.1 1 Numerical examples are included in this Disclosure Statement to help you better understand the provisions of the Buyer's Resale Agreement and Promissory Note. Please be aware that these are simply to show how things work and that they are not intended to represent your specific situation. If you follow along with a calculator, you may not get exactly the same answers. Any differences are probably due to how your calculator "rounds-off" numbers. 398 31 REQUIREMENTS WHILE LIVING IN A BMR UNIT A. REQUIREMENTS IN EFFECT FOR 99-YEAR TERM The requirements that are in the Resale Agreement apply until the earlier of (i) ninety- nine (99) years from the date of the recordation of the Resale Agreement, or (ii) the date you sell or transfer your home in accordance with the Resale Agreement and the Deed of Trust. If you own and live in your home for the whole 99-year term, all of the requirements of the Resale Agreement go away. B. PRIMARY RESIDENCE AND ANNUAL CERTIFICATION Your house must be your main place of residence. This means you must live in your home for at least 10 months out of each calendar year. At least once per year, City or its agent will verify that owners continue to occupy the BMR units. The verification process will include the following steps:  The City or its agent will mail to all BMR units a Certification of Owner Occupancy.  You must complete the form and return it to the City within 30 days, including proof of occupancy such as a copy of the most recent mortgage statement, property tax bill, or utility bill.  The City or its agent will annually order property title lot books to verify homeownership and liens on the property. Failure to Subm it Annual Certification If the City determines that you have willfully made false statements or misrepresented any facts on the annual certification, o r i f yo u f a i l t o su bm i t th e C e rt i fi c a ti o n o f O w n er O c c u p a n c y, the City will treat this as a breach of the Resale Agreement and the Deed of Trust and will take all legal remedies available, including forced sale of the unit. C. LEASE OR RENT OF HOME You are not allowed to lease or rent the house to anyone, ex cept that in the event of substantial hardship, you may rent-out the house for no more than 12 months, with prior written City approval. If the City permits you to rent out your home for up to 12 months, you may only rent the home to a lower income household, and the rent you may charge is restricted by the City to an affordable rent, as defined by state law (approximately 30% of the tenant's household income, less an allowance for utilities). If you violate these requirements, the City may sue to enforce them, and you will owe the City any Excess Rental Proceeds you have collected (i.e., the rent in excess of the restricted amount you are permitted to charge). You will also be in default under the Resale Agreement, and the City may require you to sell the home to the City in the manner described in the Resale Agreement. D. MAINTAINING YOUR HOME/ PROPERTY INSURANCE By signing the Resale Agreement and Deed of Trust, you agree to keep your home and landscaping in good repair and in neat, clean, and orderly condition and to prevent deterioration 399 32 of the home. You agree not use or dispose of an y h azardous substances on the property, except those commonly used on residential properties. You also agree to keep a standard homeowner's insurance policy, with the City named as an additional insured. The insurance policy shall be in an amount equal to the replacement value of the home. Every five (5) years, the replacement value will be reviewed and adjusted as needed, if requested by the City. If you hire a contractor to work on your home, the contractor must be licensed and carry liability and workers compensation insurance. E. CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS If you make improvements to your home, and you want the value of the capital improvements to be taken into account when the Maximum Restricted Resale Price (or option price) is calculated, you must obtain written approval of the improvements by the City before the improvements are made. The initial cost of such improvements must be at least $2,000 or more, and the improvements must conform with existing building codes and with Federal Housing Quality Standards. A copy of the receipts and invoices must be submitted to the City or its agent for proof of the capital improvements made to your home. F. REFINANCE AND JUNIOR MORTGAGES The Resale Agreement allows you to refinance your first mortgage loan or place a second mortgage or equity line of credit on your home, but places restrictions on the amount received by you from the refinancing. Following refinancing of your first mortgage or the addition of a junior mortgage, the principal amount of all debt secured by your house must not be greater than the larger of: (i) 90 percent of the Maximum Restricted Resale Price; or (ii) the original amount of all the loans you took out to finance the purchase of your home. If you are considering a refinance of your first mortgage or obtaining a junior mortgage, you should contact the City for a calculation of the Maximum Restricted Resale Price amount before you contact your financial institution. The City will not approve any mortgage that allows payment of interest only, negative amortization, adjustable rate, or reverse mortgage. REQUIREMENTS FOR SELLING OR TRANSFERRING OWNERSHIP OF A BMR UNIT A. CITY HAS OPTION TO PURCHASE In exchange for the opportunity given to you to buy your home at an affordable, below- market price, the City has an option to buy your home at a restricted price if you sell your home or transfer ownership during the term of the Resale Agreement or if you violate any of the terms of the Resale Agreement. In other words, the City has the first opportunity to buy your house before anyone else. The Cit y may also give its option to purchase your house to a public agency, a nonprofit organization, or a person or family meeting income and other requirements. 400 33 B. PERMISSIBLE TRANSFERS OF OWNERSHIP – NOT A SALE Certain transfers of ownership are allowed although these transfers will require the new owner or owners to sign new BMR documents. The following transfers are permitted under the BMR program. The City must be informed of these transfers, but the City does not have the right to purchase your home if you transfer ownership to:  An existing spouse or domestic partner;  A spouse or domestic partner where the spouse or domestic partner becomes the co-owner of the home;  One spouse as part of a marriage dissolution proceeding;  An existing spouse or domestic partner of owner by devise or inheritance following the death of owner; or  An inter vivos (living) trust in which the owner is the beneficiary and trustee, provided a new resale restriction is executed in the name of the living trust and the BMR owner provides the City with a copy of the trust document or cer tifi cation of trust to verify the trustee information. Inheritance In the event that someone inherits your home, the administrator of your estate or the person inheriting your home must contact the City within 30 days of your death. If the person inheriting your home qualifies as an eligible purchaser, he or she may keep your home, but he or she will have to execute new homebuyer documents with the City. If the person inheriting your home does not qualify as an eligible purchaser, he or she will have to sell the home in accordance with the Resale Agreement, but may live in the home for up to 12 months, leave the home vacant for up to 12 months, or rent the home to a low income tenant at a restricted rent for up to a year. If the person inheriting your home does not qualify as an eligible purchaser, and does not comply with the terms of the Resale Agreement, he or she will be in default under the Resale Agreement, and the City may exercise its option to purchase the home at the Maximum Restricted Resale Price. These provisions do not apply to a spouse or domestic partner of the owner. C. PROCESS FOR SELLING A BMR UNIT The first action that you must take if you want to sell your home is to contact the City or its agent and submit an Owner’s Notice of Intent to Transfer. You should do this before you contact a real estate broker and before you put the home on the market. The notice must include a pest report from a licensed pest inspector, other required information, and a description of any capital improvements that you have made and for which you received Cit y approval. The Owner’s Notice of Intent to Transfer must be sent by certified mail with a return receipt requested or by express delivery service with a delivery receipt. Notices are considered effective as of the date received or the date delivery was refused. City’s Response The City will contact you within seven days of receiving the Intent to Transfer to arrange for a time to inspect your property to assess its condition. Within 30 days of the City’s receipt of the Intent to Transfer, the pest control report, other required information, and the capital 401 34 improvement request, and the City’s on-site inspection, the City will send you a City Response Notice. The Notice will explain whether the City intends to exercise its right to purchase or transfer its right to an income-eligible buyer. The City Response Notice will also provide the restricted sales price amount. City Exercises Right to Purchase If the City elects to exercise its right to purchase the property or transfer its right to an income eligible buyer, escrow will close within 90 days of the date that the City Response Notice is sent to you. The City or its agent will select the new buyer from the City's waitlist. When your home is bought by the City or a City-selected buyer under the City's option to purchase, you will pay to the City a transaction fee equal to six percent of the sales price. This fee takes the place of the fee for a broker's services. The City will be performing those services when it purchases your home. You should not contact a broker to sell your home until the City has informed you whether or not it will not exercise its option to purchase your home. If you contact a broker and the City exercises its option, you will owe the City a six percent transaction fee and you will be solely responsible for any additional broker fee. City Elects to Not Exercise Right to Purchase If the City chooses to not exercise its right to purchase the property or assign its right to an income eligible buyer, you may sell the home to an income eligible household for no more than the restricted sales price provided by the City. An eligible purchaser is a household (1) who will live in the home; (2) whose income is equal to or less than the income level designated in the City Response Notice; and (3) who will agree to sign resale restriction documents required by the City and to otherwise cooperate with the City. Once you find a potential eligible purchaser, you must refer the proposed buyer to the City so that the City can determine if in fact the buyer is an eligible purchaser. The seller and the proposed buyer must give specific information and documents to the City as described in the Resale Agreement. When the sale of the home to the eligible purchaser is completed, you must submit to the City the information and documents listed in Resale Agreement. Non-Permissible Transfers You may not transfer title to the BMR unit ( e x c e p t f o r t h e t r a n s f e r s l i s t e d i n S e c t i o n B a b o v e ) without submitting the Owner’s Notice of Intent to Transfer and receiving the City’s approval. Title to the BMR unit may not be transferred to yo u r friends or relatives whose income or assets exceeds the estab lis hed limits, or who will not occupy the BMR unit on a permanent basis after the transfer, or who are otherwise not eligible to purchase a BMR unit. D. SALES PRICE OF BMR UNIT IS RESTRICTED: MAXIMUM RESTRICTED RESALE PRICE 402 35 The City wants to make sure that the price of the BMR unit remains affordable to future median and moderate-income buyers. Therefore, the Resale Agreement limits the sales price of your home. The Maximum Restricted Resale Price that you can receive is the lower of the Indexed Price described in Section D.1 below and the Fair Market Value as described in Section D.2. 1. INDEXED PRICE (a) Owner's Base Price (price at which you bought it) (b) increased by the percentage increase of the Area Median Income for Santa Clara County for a household size of 4 persons from the date of your original purchase (the recording date of the grant deed for the property) to the date of receipt by the City of the Owner's Notice of Intent to Transfer plus (c) appraised value (not cost) of any eligible capital improvements and any special assessments imposed by the homeowners association and paid by you. Eligible capital improvements, among other requirements, must be approved in writing by the City before they are installed, as described previously minus (d) Cost of repairs to correct any violations of building or other codes, to put the house in a "sellable condition," such as cleaning, painting, appliance and other repairs, and other deferred maintenance repairs. Example 1 shows how the Indexed Price formula works. EXAMPLE 1 You sell your house at the end of eight years. The original price of your three- bedroom home was $341,000. The median income for a family of four in Santa Clara County when you bought your home was $105,500. Median income increases by 16% over the eight years. Five years after buying your home, you remodel your kitchen (with prior City written approval) and the remodeling work is valued by an appraiser as worth $3,000 at the time you sell. There is no deferred maintenance. (a) (b) Original Price of Home Median Income Increases by 16% over $341,000 eight years multiply (a) by 16%, then add 54,560 result ($54,560) to (a) $395,560 (c) Appraised Value (not cost) of Eligible Capital Improvements + 3,000 INDEXED PRICE $398,560 2. FAIR MARKET VALUE Under the Resale Agreement, the fair market value can be determined in one of two ways. First, it can be established by a real estate appraiser approved in advance by the City. If 403 36 possible, the appraisal will be based on sales prices of homes similar to yours that are sold in your market area during the preceding three-month period. The appraisal will not take into account the fact that the resale price of your home is restricted by the Resale Agreement. The value of any (i) eligible capital improvements that you have made to your home, or (ii) damage or deferred maintenance that decrease its value shall be included in the appraisal. The cost of the appraisal used to determine fair market value will be paid by you, unless a new buyer has obtained an appraisal that you may utilize. The Resale Agreement also allows you and the City to set the fair market value of your home by mutual agreement instead of relying on an appraiser. Both you and the City would have to agree to this particular method (instead of hiring an appraiser) and to the final fair market value amount. If you and the City fail to agree on the Fair Market Value, either one can require use of the appraisal method. Example 2 shows how the Indexed Price and the Fair Market Value of the home are compared to determine the Maximum Restricted Resale Price at which you can offer your house for sale. EXAMPLE 2 The assumptions are the same as in Example 1. You sell your house at the end of eight years. The original sales price of your home was $341,000. The median income for a family of four in Santa Clara County when you bought the home was $105,500. Median income increases by 16% over the eight years. Five years after buying your home, you remodel your kitchen. The Fair Market Value of your home is determined by appraisal, the cost of which is paid by you. The appraisal determines the Fair Market Value at $450,000. This amount includes the value of the kitchen improvements, at $3,000. PRICE INDEXED is less FAIR MARKET MAXIMUM RESTRICTED PRICE than VALUE then RESALE $398,560 < $450,000 ⇒ $398,560 Since the Fair Market Value of the home is greater than the Indexed Price of the house, the Maximum Restricted Resale Price which you can receive from the sale of your home is $398,560. E. TRANSFER IN VIOLATION OF RESALE RESTRICTION AGREEMENT; PAYMENT OF "EXCESS SALES PROCEEDS" TO CITY If you sell or transfer your home in a wa y that violates the terms of the Resale Agreement, or if the City does not choose to purchase your home and you cannot find an eligible buyer, then you must pay to the City any "Excess Sales Proceeds" that result from the sale of your house. For example, if you do not sell your home to the City or to an eligible purchaser, but to someone else for market value, then you will owe the City any "Excess Sales Proceeds" that result from the sale. The term "Excess Sales Proceeds" is defined in the Resale Agreement as the amount by which the gross sales proceeds you receive from the ineligible buyer exceed the Maximum Restricted Resale Price for the home. Another way to put it is the following: Gross Amount of Money the New Buyer Paid for the House 404 37 MINUS Maximum Restricted Resale Price (from City Response Notice) EQUALS Payment to the City of Excess Sales Proceeds The amount of Excess Sales Proceeds that you pay to the City is used by the City for other affordable housing programs to help other median and moderate income families purchase a home. Example 3 shows how the Excess Sales Proceeds are calculated. EXAMPLE 3 You sell your house at the end of eight years. You originally paid $341,000 for your home. The City Response Notice sets the Maximum Restricted Resale Price at $398,560. The City does not choose to purchase your own, and you are unable to find a buyer who qualifies as an eligible purchaser. You sell the house for $500,000. You must pay the City Excess Sales Proceeds as calculated below: Total Amount Market Purchaser Paid For House $ 500,000 MINUS Maximum Restricted Resale Price (from City Response Notice) - 398,500 Amount of Excess Sales Proceeds You Pay to City $101,500 In cases where transfer of your home to another person is by means other than sale (with the exception of a creditor taking title), the amount of Excess Sales Proceeds is the difference between the original purchase price and the fair market value of the home at the time of transfer VIOLATIONS OF BMR REQUIREMENTS If you violate any provisions of the City documents, you are considered to be in default under the Resale Agreement. Also, if you default under any loan on the home, such as a mortgage or home equity loan, you would also be considered to be in default under the Resale Agreement. If you do not correct the violation, the City could require you to repay Excess Sales Proceeds and/or exercise its option and buy your home for the Maximum Restricted Resale Price. The City could also go to court and get a court order to enforce the provisions of the City documents, which may result in a foreclosure on your home. The City may learn of violations of the Resale Agreement and program restrictions through periodic audits and other resources available to the City. The City ma y take all actions necessary to verify occupancy of the unit by the persons on the title to the unit. Any homeowner who violates the terms of the Resale Agreement may be forced to sell the unit to the City, who 405 38 will normally then sell the unit to the next eligible purchaser on the waitlist. The City will require the owner to reimburse the City for any rent that was collected in excess of that allowed by the Resale Agreement. Forced Sale due to Breach of Resale Agreement with Option to Purchase Owners who breach the requirements of the Resale Agreement are violating the City Council’s policy of providing homeownership opportunities to median and moderate income households. The number of people on the BMR waitlist often exceeds the number of BMR units available. Therefore, when the City confirms that an owner has breached the terms of the Resale Agreement, especially b y not living in the BMR unit, the City may exercise its option and force the sale of the BMR unit. Foreclosure If a lender records a Notice of Default on a BMR unit, then a breach of the terms of the Resale Agreement has occurred. The City shall inform the owner of the action that needs to be taken to cure the default and by what date the default must be cured. If the owner is unable to cure the default, then the City again may exercise its option and force the sale of the BMR unit to preserve the unit as affordable housing. 406 39 Signature Page Please sign this Buyer's Disclosure Statement in the space provided below, keep a signed copy for your records, and return the original to the City at the following address: City of Cupertino Community Development Department 10300 Torre Avenue Cupertino, CA 95104 I have received, read and understand the above Buyer's Disclosure Statement.

Buyer’s Disclosure Statement Exhibit 5 BMR Renter Occupancy Certification Exhibit 6 Certificate of Receipt of Administrative Procedures Manual 414 5 394\09\1903732.3 1.0 Introduction As required by Section 19.172.030 of the Cupertino Municipal Code, this manual establishes procedures for the on-going administration of the inventory of affordable units, also referred to as Below Market Rate (BMR) units, created by the City of Cupertino’s Residential Housing Mitigation Program. The manual includes procedures and guidelines for prioritizing applicants, evaluating the eligibility of applicants, setting maximum affordable rents and sales prices, and monitoring compliance of tenants and homeowners with the recorded affordability covenants. The manual will provide guidance to City staff, the City’s program administrator, BMR homeowners, B M R re n t e r srenters, a n d p r o p e r t y m a n a g e r s of rental complexes that contain BMR units. The a t t a c h e d exhibits and certain portions of this manual will be updated as necessary to comply with regulations and policies of the United States Depar tment of Housing and Urban Development ( HUD), State of California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD), and City Housing Element and zoning ordinance. A separate manual, the “Below Market Rate (BMR) Housing Mitigation Program Procedural Manual,” describes the procedures for implementing requirements applicable to developers under the Residential Housing Mitigation Program. The City of Cupertino has overall responsibility for the BMR program although the administration may be contracted out to another agency. The guidelines in this Manual must be interpreted in conjunction with the City’s Housing Element, zoning, and documents implementing the BMR program. 415 6 394\09\1903732.3 2.0 Applicant Selection Process 2.1 Minimum Tenant/Homebuyer Eligibility Requirements Every tenant or purchaser of a BMR unit must meet specific minimum eligibility requirements, as follows:  Annual household income (including the income of all household members 18 years of age and older) must not exceed the maximum income limits established for the BMR unit;  All owners must live in the BMR unit as a primary residence;  Potential BMR homeowners must meet the definition of a first-time homebuyer; and  Potential BMR homeowners must be able to obtain primary mortgage financing and have a minimum of 5.0% of the BMR purchase price for down payment plus closing costs (gift funds are allowed) 2.2 Conflict of Interest The following individuals are ineligible to purchase or rent a BMR unit:  City employees and officials (and their immediate family members and dependents) who have policy-making authority or influence regarding City housing programs and do not qualify as having a remote interest as provided by the California Government Code; an, participate in making decisions regarding City housing programs, administer City housing programs, or whose salary is paid in any part from a City housing program;  Any consultant to the City and employees of the consultant (and their immediate family members and dependents) who have policy-making authority or influence regarding City housing programs, participate in making decisions regarding City housing programs, administer City housing programs, or whose salary is paid in any part from a City housing program;  An applicant for or developer of the project containing the BMR units and theirits officers and employees (and their immediate family members);, and the property owner of the project and its officers and employees (and their immediate family members); or  Any other individual who has a conflict of interest as defined by federal or state law or the City’s adopted Conflict of Interest Code. In addition, if an employee of any consultant involved with City housing programs is on the waiting list for any BMR unit, all review of that employee’s application must be performed by the City. 2.3 Priority Point Placement System 416 7 394\09\1903732.3 The City has established a priority point placement system that reflects the City’s priorities regarding placement of households into the limited number of BMR affordable units in the City. While not a minimum requirement, the selection of BMR tenants and homebuyers will be based on a pr iority point placement system that reflects the City’s priorities regarding placement of households into the limited number of BMR affordable units in the City. Under the priority point placement system, preference is given to applicants who live and/or work in Cupertino, including public service employees. The priority point placement system point scale is listed below. Applicants can receive up to a maximum of three points based on the following criteria below: One Point = Cupertino resident Two Points = Employment in Cupertino Applicants receiving three points shall be considered the highest priority Applicants receiving two points shall be considered the second highest priority Applicants receiving one point shall be considered the third highest priority Applicants receiving zero points shall be considered the lowest priority In addition, applicants who have been displaced from rental housing in Cupertino by public or private redevelopment shall receive a priority over all other applicants. 2.3.1 BMR Applicant Waiting Lists The waitlist application period for BMR for-sale and rental units will open on the first business day of October annually. At that time BMR for-sale and rental unit eligibility forms will be accepted. The waitlist application period will close on the last business day of October annually. Within 30 business days of the submission deadline (last business day of October); the Cit y or its agent will conduct a lottery. Each Eligibility Form will be separated into categories with equivalent priority points, and then randomly assigned a number to be put on the waitlist. Along with the City or its agent, two witnesses assist with the lottery. All candidates will be mailed results of their applications by the end of December annually specifying if they have been denied or approved, and if approved, their applicant number on the waitlist. When selecting BMR tenants or homebuyers for an available BMR unit, the City or its agent will first attempt to identify an eligible household from the highest priority group within the appropriate applicant pool and income designation. BMR units that become available will be offered based upon the order of the waitlist within each priority group. If there is no eligible household in the highest priority group, the City or its agent will then look at applicants in the second highest priority group and so on. 2.3.2 Applicant’s Right to Refuse BMR Unit 417 8 394\09\1903732.3 An applicant has two opportunities annually to refuse a BMR unit and retain their place on the waitlist. If an applicant refuses a third time, then they will be placed at the bottom of the waitlist. 2.3.3 Housing Constructed for People with Disabilities Some BMR units may be specially constructed to be accessible for people with disabilities. In the event that an accessible unit becomes available, persons with disabilities on the waitlist will be provided a preference for those BMR units. 2.3.4 Requests for Reasonable Accommodation. If an applicant or member of the applicant’s household has a disability or handicap, an applicant may request a reasonable accommodation in the City’s policies or procedures so that the applicant may take advantage of the City’s BMR program. Examples may include making large-type documents or a reader available to visually impaired applicants, permitting an outside agency to assist with the application process, or allowing another family member to co-sign a loan or lease. An applicant may request a reasonable accommodation at any time in the application process or after having been selected for a BMR unit. 2.3.5 Household Minimum Size to Occupy the BMR Unit To ensure that the City's limited BMR units are used efficiently, a household must be of a size equal to the number of bedrooms in the BMR unit. For instance, to be eligible to purchase a three- bedroom unit, a household must contain at least three members. Minimum household size occupancy standards for BMR units are: 1 bedroom unit = 1 persons 2 bedroom unit = 2 persons 3 bedroom unit = 3 persons 4 bedroom unit = 4 persons 2.3.6 Solicitation of Applicants Applications for BMR rental and ownership units shall be solicited as necessary to maintain an adequate number of applications in each of the following applicant pools: • Very Low Income (up to 50% AMI) – BMR Rental Units • Low Income (up to 80% AMI) – BMR Rental Units • Median Income (up to 100% AMI) – BMR Ownership Units • Moderate Income (up to 120% AMI) – BMR Ownership Units Outreach shall be conducted through the City’s website, program brochures, community workshops, presentations and periodic print media advertising. The City 418 9 394\09\1903732.3 and/or its agent shall be responsible for updating the content on the City’s website and distributing program brochures that are culturally and linguistically appropriate to the community. These brochures will be available at City Hall, the Cupertino Public Library, the Quinlan Community Center, the Cupertino Senior Center and other appropriate locations. Furthermore, the City or its agent shall conduct outreach efforts through local media that are culturall y and linguistically appropriate to the community. 2.3.7 Submitting an Eligibility Form for a BMR Unit A sample copy of the BMR Eligibility Form for purchasing or renting is provided as Exhibit 1. 2.3.8 Eligibility Process to Reapply on BMR Waitlist Each year the BMR waitlist resets. For example, even if a BMR applicant scored three points based on the priority point system in a given year, the same priority is not guaranteed for the following year. All prospective candidates must apply annually in October even if the candidate was on the BMR waitlist the prior year, except that displacees must apply within 90 days of receiving a displacement notice. Candidates must keep the City or its agent informed about their current mailing address, telephone contact information, employment information, household composition, or any substantial changes in income that may affect the applicant’s eligibility to remain on the waitlist. 2.3.9 Application Fees BMR application and administrative fees ma y change from time to time. As a result, the most recently approved application and administrative fees will be disclosed by the City or its agent at the time of application annually in October for both BMR for-sale and rental units. There will be no annual fee to maintain an applicant’s place on the waitlist. Exhibit 2 shows a sample copy of the BMR application with required documentation to be certified for the BMR program. 2.3.10 Definition of Employment in Cupertino A letter or verifi cation of employment shall serve as sufficient proof of employment in Cupertino. 2.4 Annual Gross Income Annual household income is defined pursuant to the U.S. Code of Federal Regulations and provided on the website of the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development at: http://www.hud.gov/offices/cpd/affordablehousing/training/web/calc ulator/definitions/part5.cfmhttp://portal.hud.gov/hudportal/documents/huddoc?i d=DOC_35699.pdf 419 10 394\09\1903732.3 Exhibit 3 provides the definitions of what is included and excluded from the determination of annual gross income in accordance with the U.S. Code of Regulations. In summary, gross household income is the sum of all the income for every adult, 18 years or older, living in the unit. Sources of income include all wages or salaries, overtime pay, commissions, fees, tips, bonuses and other compensation, net income from a business or profession or from the rental of real or personal property, interest and dividends, payments received from social security, annuities, insurance policies, retirement funds, pensions, disability or death benefits, payments in lieu of earnings, public assistance, alimony and child support received, and any other sources of income. 2.4.1. Documentation to Verify Sources of Income The gross annual incomes of all household members age 18 or older are considered when determining eligibility. The types of income to be verified and the type of documentation that will be requested may include: • Signed copies of federal tax returns for the most recent three years • W2 form for most recent two years • Copies of the last three consecutive payroll stubs or other verification of employment The following income documentation below may also be verified as follows: Source of Income Documentation Salaries and wages Prior three years federal tax returns, two years W2, three most recent payroll stubs Business income Prior t h re e yea r s federal tax returns and verification of income by a certified public accountant or bookkeeper including a m o s t rec e n t q u arter l y profit/loss statement Interest and dividend income Prior three years federal tax returns Retirement and Insurance Income Verification from source Unemployment & Disability Income Verification from source Welfare Assistance Verification from source Alimony, Child Support and Gift Income Verification from source Armed Forces Income Verification from source Other Verification from source 2.5 Assets There are limits to the amount of net assets that are used for eligibility for BMR for- sales and rental units. For households applying to be an owner of a BMR unit, the limit is $100,000. For households applying to be a tenant of a BMR unit, the limit is equal to the maximum household income limited adjusted for household size that is 420 11 394\09\1903732.3 allowable in order to be eligible for the program. The maximum allowable household income limits for the BMR rental program are published annually in the BMR Program brochure. The table below represents what is included and excluded for as assets. 2.5.1 Documentation to Support Assets The following chart contains the types of assets to be verified and the type of documentation that will be requested. Assets Documentation Checking Account, Savings Account, Mutual Fund/Money Market Fund, Certificates of Deposit (C.D.) Copies of t wo mo st r e c e nt s t a teme n ts Stocks, including Options Copy of stock certificate or proof of purchase and statement of current value; for stock prices attach a copy of recent dated newspaper or online source that shows the value of each company’s stocks Bonds, including savings bonds Copies of most recent document Trust Copies of most recent document Gift Signed Gift Letter by all parties Personal Loan Letter or loan agreement Down Payment Assistance Loan Copy of Agreement Individual Development Match Account Copy of two most recent statements Other Verification from source 2.6 False Statements During the BMR application process, applicants who intentionally make false statements or misrepresent any facts on the application to purchase or rent a BMR unit will be removed from the BMR waiting list and barred from re-applying for a BMR unit in Cupertino in the future. If the City or its agent should discover that a contract was completed by a purchaser or renter who intentionally made false statements or misrepresented the facts in order to appear eligible, the City will treat this as a breach of the resale and/or rental restrictions and may exercise any remedies allowed under the resale and/or rental agreement including a forced sale of the unit or eviction and the imposition of any civil penalties that apply. 3.0 Ownership Units Requirements for Buying a BMR Unit 421 12 394\09\1903732.3 3.1 Income Limits for Ownership Units The BMR for-sale program is designed to assist first-time median and moderate- income homebuyers. The BMR for-sale program uses income limits published by HCD annually for Santa Clara County, per household size. HCD’s income limits include the median and moderate-income categories and income limits are adjusted per household size. BMR fo r -s al e p ro g ram income limits per household size are published annuall y in the City’s BMR program brochure. An example of median and moderate-income ranges is listed below. • Median Income (up to 100% AMI) – BMR Ownership Units • Moderate Income (up to 120% AMI) – BMR Ownership Units 3.1.1 Co-applicants The City or its agent will accept one application per household. A co-applicant is defined as an adult member of the household whether related or unrelated who intends to apply for the BMR unit, be on the title of the property with the applicant, and occupy the unit as his or her primary residence. The combined income and assets of all adult members of the household (including co- applicants) to purchase a BMR unit must not exceed the maximum income limits per household size and asset limitations of the program. All co-applicants must go through the same process a s the a ppli cant and must agree to comply with the program requirements. Non-occupant co-signors are not allowed to assist with the BMR purchase. 3.1.2 Household Composition A household is comprised of one or more persons who may or may not be related. An unborn child can be counted in family size once there is medical confirmation of pregnancy. An adoption in process will be counted in family size with verification of the adoption process being underway. A child will be considered part of the household when the child lives with a single parent for at least 75% of the time or in instances of joint custody, at least 50%. The applicant will need to submit a copy of the divorce decree and/or child custody agreement as verifiable documentation. If a divorce is in process, it may not be possible to qualify an applicant because family size and financial status are unclear. If the applicants are proposing to combine households with the purchase of the BMR, the combined household must meet eligibility requirements and combined income must meet the household income limits. 3.2 Asset Limit for Ownership Units Households with net assets over $100,000 held in the United States or foreign countries will not be eligible to purchase a BMR home. Excluded from net assets are: 1) all non- accessible funds, including any assets that generate a penalty when withdrawn i.e. 401K, 422 13 394\09\1903732.3 CALPERS, STRS and other pension plans; and 2) assets that will be used to fund the down payments. Section 2.4 of this manual defines assets and provides the documents that must be submitted to support the calculation of assets. 3.3. Definition of First-time Homebuyer An applicant must be a first-time homebuyer to be considered for a BMR for-sale unit. An applicant shall be considered a first-time homebuyer if they have not owned a home for at least three years. This definition applies to properties owned in foreign countries as well as the United States. An exception will be made for people who were homeowners prior to a divorce or legal separation. The City or its agent may verify first-time homebuyer status by (1) reviewing mortgage deductions on the three most recent years of federal tax returns for each adult in the applicant’s household; (2) a signed statement on the application stating homeownership status: and (3) a title search. 3.4 Affordable Sale Price Determination 3.4.1 Initial Prices of Newly Constructed Units Newly constructed initial BMR sales prices will be determined by the City or its agent. The City or its agent will calculate newl y constructed initial BMR sales prices for both median and moderate-income based on the maximum affordable housing cost provisions of Section 50052.5 of the California Health and Safety Code and most recent published HCD income limits. 3.4.2. Prices of Existing BMR Units Resale prices for existing BMR units will be determined by the City or its agent. The City or its agent will reference the Occupancy, Refinancing, and Resale Restriction Agreement with Option to Purchase (Resale Agreement) recorded on the title of the existing BMR unit when calculating the BMR resale price. 3.5 Financing 3.5.1 Lenders Prospective purchasers of BMR units must seek and obtain t h ei r ow n primary mortgage financing in order to purchase a BMR unit. There is no prearranged City financing; however the City and its agent maintain a list of City approved BMR lending institutions who have provided written confirmation through their underwriting and/or bond department that their lending institution is able to provide primary mortgage financing with the City’s BMR requirements. In order to qualify as an approved BMR lender the institution must have reviewed and approved the City’s Resale Restriction Agreement, Deed of Trust and Promissory Note in advance. From time to time the City may require additional training in order for a lending institution to maintain its status as an approved City BMR lender. 423 14 394\09\1903732.3 3.5.2 Loan Requirements The primary first mortgage loan must be a fully amortized 30-year term fixed principal and interest loan. Interest only loans, negative amortization loans, adjustable rate loans and reverse mortgage loans are not permitted. In some cases the primary 30-year fixed principal and interest loan may be combined with down payment assistance, mortgage assistance or a community program second loan. Under this scenario the primary and secondary lenders must receive written approval from the City. 3.6 Insurance Requirements Prior to the sale of any unit, the City shall require that each purchaser secure a standard homeowner’s insurance policy, with the City named as an additional insured. The City will be entitled to any policy proceeds in excess of the affordable unit purchase price if the proceeds are not used to rebuild the home. The insurance policy shall be in an amount equal to the replacement value of the home. At least every five (5) years, the replacement value must be reviewed and adjusted as needed. If the owner hires a contractor to work on the home, the contractor must be licensed and carry liability and workers compensation insurance. 3.7 Required Pre-Purchase Education After the applicant is placed on the BMR Homeownership waitlist and before receiving an offer to purchase a BMR unit, the applicant(s) must attend a BMR pre-purchase education workshop or program offered by the City of Cupertino or a qualified HUD approved agency. If an applicant completes the H U D a p p r o v ed w o r ks h op or C it y a p p r o v e d program, the applicant will receive a certificate of completion. The certificate of completion must be provided as proof of participation in the workshop or program and will be submitted at, or prior to, close of escrow. The applicant must complete pre-purchase education within a reasonable timeframe established by the City or its agent, or the applicant will be removed from the waitlist. 3.8 Minimum Cash Available The applicant(s) should have sufficient readily available assets for a minimum of 5% of the purchase price for down payment, plus closing costs and other associated fees. Gifts funds can be applied towards applicant’s 5% down payment assistance; a signed gift letter is required b y all parties involved. 3.9 Documents for Completing Home Purchase The following documents must be read and signed by the Owner(s) before the sale or 424 15 394\09\1903732.3 resale of a BMR unit is completed: • Buyer's Disclosure Statement (Exhibit 4) • Promissory Note • Deed of Trust • Occupancy, Refinancing, and Resale Restriction Agreement with Option to Purchase (Resale Agreement) • Request for Notice Under Section 2924b of California Civil Code The Resale Agreement requires owners of BMR units to live in their home as their principal place of residence and prohibits renting the home except in cases of hardship. It also limits the price at which the homes can be sold. If the owner sells the home above the restricted price, then the owner must pay the City the difference between the restricted price and the sales price. In addition, the owner must follow certain steps and procedures when deciding to sell the home. The City has an option to purchase a BMR home at the restricted price whenever the owner decides to sell the home or if the owner violates any agreements. The purpose of the Promissory Note, Resale Agreement, and Deed of Trust is to make sure that BMR homes remain affordable to other BMR households upon resale. The Buyer's Disclosure Statement is attached as Exhibit 4 and should be reviewed by all applicants who desire to purchase BMR homes. It summarizes the major provisions of the other documents to ensure that a BMR owner understands his or her obligations under the program. The City or its agent will provide the other documents to any interested applicant and to all applicants who are considered for purchase of a particular BMR unit. 3.10 Term of Affordability The deed restrictions imposed on each BMR affordable unit pursuant to the program shall remain in effect for a period of 99 years from the date of original sale of that unit. Furthermore, the resale restrictions shall renew at each change of title. 4.0 Rental Units Requirements for Renting a BMR Unit 4.1 Income Limits for BMR Rental Units The BMR rental program is designed to assist very low and low-income households. The BMR rental program uses income limits published by HCD annually for Santa Clara County. HCD’s income limits include the ver y low and low-income categories, and income limits are adjusted for household size. BMR r e ntal p ro gra m income limits per household size are published annually in the City’s BMR program brochure. An example of very low and low-income ranges is listed below. 425 16 394\09\1903732.3 • Very Low Income (up to 50% AMI) – BMR Rental Units • Low Income (up to 80% AMI) – BMR Rental Units 4.1.1 Co-Signers Non-occupant co-signers are not allowed to assist with the BMR rentals. 4.1.2 Household Composition A household is comprised of one or more persons who may or may not be related. An unborn child can be counted in family size once there is medical confirmation of pregnancy. An adoption in process will be counted in family size with verification of the adoption process being underway. A child will be considered part of the household when the child lives with a single parent for at least 75% of the time or in instances of joint custody, at least 50%. The applicant will need to submit a copy of the divorce decree and/or child custody agreement as verifiable documentation. If a divorce is in process, it may not be possible to qualify an applicant because family size and financial status is unclear. 4.2 Applicant Assets For households applying to be a tenant of a BMR unit, the m a x i m u m a s s e t limit is equal to the maximum household income adjusted for household size that is allowable in order to be eligible for the program. The maximum allowable household income limits for the BMR rental program are published annually in the BMR Program brochure. 4.2.1 Documentation to Support Assets The following chart contains the types of assets to be verified and the type of documentation that will be requested.

The rents will be determined based on annual HCD published income lim its and section 50053 of the California Health and Safety Code. Annual Rent (inclusive of fees and utilities) for very low-income units cannot exceed 30% of 50% of the area median income adjusted for the size of the household appropriate for the unit. Annual Rent (inclusive of fees and utilities) for low-income units cannot exceed 30% of 60% of the area median income adjusted for household size appropriate for the unit. Rent includes all charges related to occupancy of the unit including utilities, parking fees, fees for use of common facilities and other fees and charges. If utilities are not paid by the property owner, the rent for the BMR units must be adjusted downward to allow for a utility allowance calculated in accordance with the utility allowances published by the Santa Clara Housing Authority annually. 4.4 Previewing of Unit The City or its agent will coordinate with the apartment manager/ property manager to preview the BMR unit. 4.5 Owning Property Candidate(s) cannot own a home and/or be on title of a property when applying for the BMR rental program. Living in a BMR Rental Unit 4.6 Occupancy Conditions The approved BMR tenant(s) must occupy the BMR unit during the entire term of the lease. If an additional occupant (roommate, family member, etc.) moves into the BMR unit, he/she will be considered part of the existing household. In such cases, the BMR tenant must notify the City or its agent prior to the move in date, and the entire household (including the new occupant) will be reevaluated to determine eligibility, including household income requirements. If the tenant(s) fail to receive approval from the City for any changes in occupancy or if the tenant(s) subleases the property, the tenant household will no longer be eligible to occupy the BMR unit. 4.7 Annual Rent Adjustments 427 18 394\09\1903732.3 Maximum BMR rents will be adjusted annually based on the most recently published HCD income limits for Santa Clara County per household size and also in accordance with the California Health and Safety Code Section 50053. The most recent BMR rent levels will be included in the BMR program brochure. The City or its agent will notify the property owner of the new rental rates. If the owner chooses to raise rents, the tenant will be given a 60 day notice before any rent increase. 4.8 Annual Re-Certification of Income At least once a year, the property owner shall requalify BMR tenants to verify that they are eligible to remain in BMR rental units. The City will provide the “BMR Renter Occupancy Certification Form” (Exhibit 5) to the property owners. If the BMR renter fails to submit a signed Certification within thirty (30) days of the written request, then the lease shall automatically terminate, and the renter must vacate the unit within thirty (30) days of written notice from the apartment owner/property manager. If the renter fails to vacate the unit, the apartment owner/ property manager will institute evictions proceedings. On an annual basis, Requalification shall be based upon the BMR tenant’s household income, as determined by the three most recent pay stubs, prior year tax returns and household size. If a very low income BMR tenant’s household income increases and exceeds the BMR income limits for very low income household but does not exceed the BMR income limits for a BMR low income household, then the tenant's rent will be increased to BMR low income rents, and the tenant main remain in the unit until either a suitable BMR low income unit becomes available. If a tenant's household income increases and exceeds the BMR income limits for a low income household, the tenant will be given three months to locate alternate housing and vacate the BMR rental unit. A three month extension may be granted in cases of extreme hardship. 4.9 Terms of Tenancy BMR tenants will be subject to the same conditions of tenancy as other tenants occupying the same property, except for terms relating to occupancy, income eligibility, annual recertification, and limits on rents.

A reasonable accommodation is some modification or change that we can make to the policies or procedures that will assist an otherwise eligible applicant with a disability to take advantage of the City's BMR program. Examples of a reasonable accommodation include: • Making large type documents or a reader available to a vision impaired applicant during the application process; • Permitting an outside agency to assist an applicant with a disability to meet the property's screening criteria; or • Permitting a sign language interpreter to assist a hearing impaired applicant during the application process. An applicant that has a family member with a disability must sti ll be able to meet the essential obligations of the BMR program. Potential renters must be able to pay rent, care for their apartments, report required information to the owner, avoid disturbing neighbors, etc., but there is no requirement that they be able to do these things without assistance. Potential homeowners must have adequate income to support a mortgage and meet other eligibility criteria. If you or a member of your household has a disability or handicap and think you might need or want a reasonable accommodation, you may request it at any time in the application process. If you would prefer not to discuss your situation with us, that is also your right. 441 EXHIBIT 3 32 394\09\1903732.3 CITY OF CUPERTINO HOUSING MITIGATION PROGRAM DEFINITION OF GROSS INCOME Part 5 Inclusions This table presents the Part 5 income inclusions as stated in the Code of Federal Regulations.

The price that you are paying for your house is below the market rate, as required by the Inclusionary Housing Ordinance. In exchange for giving you the opportunity to buy your house at a below-market affordable price, the City will require you to sign a Promissory Note, Deed of Trust, and an Occupancy, Refinancing, and Resale Agreement with Option to Purchase (the "Resale Agreement"). The Deed of Trust and Resale Agreement will be recorded against your property. These documents are enforceable by the City. In general, the Promissory Note, Deed of Trust and the Resale Agreement set forth conditions that you must meet, including but not limited to the following:  The Resale Agreement requires you to live in your home as your principal place of residence and prohibits you from renting out your home.  The Resale Agreement places controls on the sale of your home. There is a limit to the price at which you can sell the home. If you sell the home above the restricted price, you must pay the City the difference between the restricted price and the sales price. In addition, you must follow certain steps and procedures when you decide to sell your  home.  The City has an option to purchase your home at a restricted price when you put the home up for sale or if you violate any agreements. The purpose of the Promissory Note, Resale Agreement, and Deed of Trust is to make sure that the City's goal of providing affordable homeownership opportunities to moderate income buyers continues to be met by keeping your house affordable to other moderate income households should you choose to sell or move. The City has helped you to buy a home; it wants to help others as well. This Disclosure Statement explains the major provisions of the Promissory Note, Deed of Trust, and Resale Agreement so that you will understand their requirements. You should, of course, read the entire Promissory Note, the Resale Agreement, and the Deed of Trust and become familiar with them if you are considered for the purchase of a particular BMR home.1 1 Numerical examples are included in this Disclosure Statement to help you better understand the provisions of the Buyer's Resale Agreement and Promissory Note. Please be aware that these are simply to show how things work and that they are not intended to represent your specific situation. If you follow along with a calculator, you may not get exactly the same answers. Any differences are probably due to how your calculator "rounds-off" numbers. 445 36 394\09\1903732.3 REQUIREMENTS WHILE LIVING IN A BMR UNIT A. REQUIREMENTS IN EFFECT FOR 99-YEAR TERM The requirements that are in the Resale Agreement apply until the earlier of (i) ninety- nine (99) years from the date of the recordation of the Resale Agreement, or (ii) the date you sell or transfer your home in accordance with the Resale Agreement and the Deed of Trust. If you own and live in your home for the whole 99-year term, all of the requirements of the Resale Agreement go away. B. PRIMARY RESIDENCE AND ANNUAL CERTIFICATION Your house must be your main place of residence. This means you must live in your home for at least 10 months out of each calendar year. At least once per year, City or its agent will verify that owners continue to occupy the BMR units. The verification process will include the following steps:  The City or its agent will mail to all BMR units a Certification of Owner Occupancy.  You must complete the form and return it to the City within 30 days, including proof of occupancy such as a copy of the most recent mortgage statement, property tax bill, or utility bill.  The City or its agent will annually order property title lot books to verify homeownership and liens on the property. Failure to Subm it Annual Certification If the City determines that you have willfully made false statements or misrepresented any facts on the annual certification, o r i f yo u f a i l t o su bm it th e C e rt i fi c a ti o n o f O w n er O c c u p a n c y, the City will treat this as a breach of the Resale Agreement and the Deed of Trust and will take all legal remedies available, including forced sale of the unit. C. LEASE OR RENT OF HOME You are not allowed to lease or rent the house to anyone, ex cept that in the event of substantial hardship, you may rent-out the house for no more than 12 months, with prior written City approval. If the City permits you to rent out your home for up to 12 months, you may only rent the home to a lower income household, and the rent you may charge is restricted by the City to an affordable rent, as defined by state law (approximately 30% of the tenant's household income, less an allowance for utilities). If you violate these requirements, the City may sue to enforce them, and you will owe the City any Excess Rental Proceeds you have collected (i.e., the rent in excess of the restricted amount you are permitted to charge). You will also be in default under the Resale Agreement, and the City may require you to sell the home to the City in the manner described in the Resale Agreement. D. MAINTAINING YOUR HOME/ PROPERTY INSURANCE By signing the Resale Agreement and Deed of Trust, you agree to keep your home and landscaping in good repair and in neat, clean, and orderly condition and to prevent deterioration 446 37 394\09\1903732.3 of the home. You agree not use or dispose of an y h azardous substances on the property, except those commonly used on residential properties. You also agree to keep a standard homeowner's insurance policy, with the City named as an additional insured. The insurance policy shall be in an amount equal to the replacement value of the home. Every five (5) years, the replacement value will be reviewed and adjusted as needed, if requested by the City. If you hire a contractor to work on your home, the contractor must be licensed and carry liability and workers compensation insurance. E. CAPITAL IMPROVEMENTS If you make improvements to your home, and you want the value of the capital improvements to be taken into account when the Maximum Restricted Resale Price (or option price) is calculated, you must obtain written approval of the improvements by the City before the improvements are made. The initial cost of such improvements must be at least $2,000 or more, and the improvements must conform with existing building codes and with Federal Housing Quality Standards. A copy of the receipts and invoices must be submitted to the City or its agent for proof of the capital improvements made to your home. F. REFINANCE AND JUNIOR MORTGAGES The Resale Agreement allows you to refinance your first mortgage loan or place a second mortgage or equity line of credit on your home, but places restrictions on the amount received by you from the refinancing. Following refinancing of your first mortgage or the addition of a junior mortgage, the principal amount of all debt secured by your house must not be greater than the larger of: (i) 90 percent of the Maximum Restricted Resale Price; or (ii) the original amount of all the loans you took out to finance the purchase of your home. If you are considering a refinance of your first mortgage or obtaining a junior mortgage, you should contact the City for a calculation of the Maximum Restricted Resale Price amount before you contact your financial institution. The City will not approve any mortgage that allows payment of interest only, negative amortization, adjustable rate, or reverse mortgage. REQUIREMENTS FOR SELLING OR TRANSFERRING OWNERSHIP OF A BMR UNIT A. CITY HAS OPTION TO PURCHASE In exchange for the opportunity given to you to buy your home at an affordable, below- market price, the City has an option to buy your home at a restricted price if you sell your home or transfer ownership during the term of the Resale Agreement or if you violate any of the terms of the Resale Agreement. In other words, the City has the first opportunity to buy your house before anyone else. The Cit y may also give its option to purchase your house to a public agency, a nonprofit organization, or a person or family meeting income and other requirements. 447 38 394\09\1903732.3 B. PERMISSIBLE TRANSFERS OF OWNERSHIP – NOT A SALE Certain transfers of ownership are allowed although these transfers will require the new owner or owners to sign new BMR documents. The following transfers are permitted under the BMR program. The City must be informed of these transfers, but the City does not have the right to purchase your home if you transfer ownership to:  An existing spouse or domestic partner;  A spouse or domestic partner where the spouse or domestic partner becomes the co-owner of the home;  One spouse as part of a marriage dissolution proceeding;  An existing spouse or domestic partner of owner by devise or inheritance following the death of owner; or  An inter vivos (living) trust in which the owner is the beneficiary and trustee, provided a new resale restriction is executed in the name of the living trust and the BMR owner provides the City with a copy of the trust document or cer tifi cation of trust to verify the trustee information. Inheritance In the event that someone inherits your home, the administrator of your estate or the person inheriting your home must contact the City within 30 days of your death. If the person inheriting your home qualifies as an eligible purchaser, he or she may keep your home, but he or she will have to execute new homebuyer documents with the City. If the person inheriting your home does not qualif y as an eligible purchaser, he or she will have to sell the home in accordance with the Resale Agreement, but may live in the home for up to 12 months, leave the home vacant for up to 12 months, or rent the home to a low income tenant at a restricted rent for up to a year. If the person inheriting your home does not qualify as an eligible purchaser, and does not comply with the terms of the Resale Agreement, he or she will be in default under the Resale Agreement, and the City may exercise its option to purchase the home at the Maximum Restricted Resale Price. These provisions do not apply to a spouse or domestic partner of the owner. C. PROCESS FOR SELLING A BMR UNIT The first action that you must take if you want to sell your home is to contact the City or its agent and submit an Owner’s Notice of Intent to Transfer. You should do this before you contact a real estate broker and before you put the home on the market. The notice must include a pest report from a licensed pest inspector, other required information, and a description of any capital improvements that you have made and for which you received City approval. The Owner’s Notice of Intent to Transfer must be sent by certified mail with a return receipt requested or by express delivery service with a delivery receipt. Notices are considered effective as of the date received or the date delivery was refused. City’s Response The City will contact you within seven days of receiving the Intent to Transfer to arrange for a time to inspect your property to assess its condition. Within 30 days of the City’s receipt of the Intent to Transfer, the pest control report, other required information, and the capital 448 39 394\09\1903732.3 improvement request, and the City’s on-site inspection, the City will send you a City Response Notice. The Notice will explain whether the City intends to exercise its right to purchase or transfer its right to an income-eligible buyer. The City Response Notice will also provide the restricted sales price amount. City Exercises Right to Purchase If the City elects to exercise its right to purchase the property or transfer its right to an income eligible buyer, escrow will close within 90 days of the date that the City Response Notice is sent to you. The City or its agent will select the new buyer from the City's waitlist. When your home is bought by the City or a City-selected buyer under the City's option to purchase, you will pay to the City a transaction fee equal to six percent of the sales price. This fee takes the place of the fee for a broker's services. The City will be performing those services when it purchases your home. You should not contact a broker to sell your home until the City has informed you whether or not it will not exercise its option to purchase your home. If you contact a broker and the City exercises its option, you will owe the City a six percent transaction fee and you will be solely responsible for any additional broker fee. City Elects to Not Exercise Right to Purchase If the City chooses to not exercise its right to purchase the property or assign its right to an income eligible buyer, you may sell the home to an income eligible household for no more than the restricted sales price provided by the City. An eligible purchaser is a household (1) who will live in the home; (2) whose income is equal to or less than the income level designated in the City Response Notice; and (3) who will agree to sign resale restriction documents required by the City and to otherwise cooperate with the City. Once you find a potential eligible purchaser, you must refer the proposed buyer to the City so that the City can determine if in fact the buyer is an eligible purchaser. The seller and the proposed buyer must give specific information and documents to the City as described in the Resale Agreement. When the sale of the home to the eligible purchaser is completed, you must submit to the City the information and documents listed in Resale Agreement. Non-Permissible Transfers You may not transfer title to the BMR unit ( e x c e p t f o r t h e t r a n s f e r s l i s t e d i n S e c t i o n B a b o v e ) without submitting the Owner’s Notice of Intent to Transfer and receiving the City’s approval. Title to the BMR unit may not be transferred to yo u r friends or relatives whose income or assets exceeds the estab lis hed limits, or who will not occupy the BMR unit on a permanent basis after the transfer, or who are otherwise not eligible to purchase a BMR unit. D. SALES PRICE OF BMR UNIT IS RESTRICTED: MAXIMUM RESTRICTED RESALE PRICE 449 40 394\09\1903732.3 The City wants to make sure that the price of the BMR unit remains affordable to future median and moderate-income buyers. Therefore, the Resale Agreement limits the sales price of your home. The Maximum Restricted Resale Price that you can receive is the lower of the Indexed Price described in Section D.1 below and the Fair Market Value as described in Section D.2. 1. INDEXED PRICE (a) Owner's Base Price (price at which you bought it) (b) increased by the percentage increase of the Area Median Income for Santa Clara County for a household size of 4 persons from the date of your original purchase (the recording date of the grant deed for the property) to the date of receipt by the City of the Owner's Notice of Intent to Transfer plus (c) appraised value (not cost) of any eligible capital improvements and any special assessments imposed by the homeowners association and paid by you. Eligible capital improvements, among other requirements, must be approved in writing by the City before they are installed, as described previously minus (d) Cost of repairs to correct any violations of building or other codes, to put the house in a "sellable condition," such as cleaning, painting, appliance and other repairs, and other deferred maintenance repairs. Example 1 shows how the Indexed Price formula works. EXAMPLE 1 You sell your house at the end of eight years. The original price of your three- bedroom home was $341,000. The median income for a family of four in Santa Clara County when you bought your home was $105,500. Median income increases by 16% over the eight years. Five years after buying your home, you remodel your kitchen (with prior City written approval) and the remodeling work is valued by an appraiser as worth $3,000 at the time you sell. There is no deferred maintenance. (a) (b) Original Price of Home Median Income Increases by 16% over $341,000 eight years multiply (a) by 16%, then add 54,560 result ($54,560) to (a) $395,560 (c) Appraised Value (not cost) of Eligible Capital Improvements + 3,000 INDEXED PRICE $398,560 2. FAIR MARKET VALUE Under the Resale Agreement, the fair market value can be determined in one of two ways. First, it can be established by a real estate appraiser approved in advance by the City. If 450 41 394\09\1903732.3 possible, the appraisal will be based on sales prices of homes similar to yours that are sold in your market area during the preceding three-month period. The appraisal will not take into account the fact that the resale price of your home is restricted by the Resale Agreement. The value of any (i) eligible capital improvements that you have made to your home, or (ii) damage or deferred maintenance that decrease its value shall be included in the appraisal. The cost of the appraisal used to determine fair market value will be paid by you, unless a new buyer has obtained an appraisal that you may utilize. The Resale Agreement also allows you and the City to set the fair market value of your home by mutual agreement instead of relying on an appraiser. Both you and the City would have to agree to this particular method (instead of hiring an appraiser) and to the final fair market value amount. If you and the City fail to agree on the Fair Market Value, either one can require use of the appraisal method. Example 2 shows how the Indexed Price and the Fair Market Value of the home are compared to determine the Maximum Restricted Resale Price at which you can offer your house for sale. EXAMPLE 2 The assumptions are the same as in Example 1. You sell your house at the end of eight years. The original sales price of your home was $341,000. The median income for a family of four in Santa Clara County when you bought the home was $105,500. Median income increases by 16% over the eight years. Five years after buying your home, you remodel your kitchen. The Fair Market Value of your home is determined by appraisal, the cost of which is paid by you. The appraisal determines the Fair Market Value at $450,000. This amount includes the value of the kitchen improvements, at $3,000. PRICE INDEXED is less FAIR MARKET MAXIMUM RESTRICTED PRICE than VALUE then RESALE $398,560 < $450,000 ⇒ $398,560 Since the Fair Market Value of the home is greater than the Indexed Price of the house, the Maximum Restricted Resale Price which you can receive from the sale of your home is $398,560. E. TRANSFER IN VIOLATION OF RESALE RESTRICTION AGREEMENT; PAYMENT OF "EXCESS SALES PROCEEDS" TO CITY If you sell or transfer your home in a way that violates the terms of the Resale Agreement, or if the City does not choose to purchase your home and you cannot find an eligible buyer, then you must pay to the City any "Excess Sales Proceeds" that result from the sale of your house. For example, if you do not sell your home to the City or to an eligible purchaser, but to someone else for market value, then you will owe the Cit y any "Excess Sales Proceeds" that result from the sale. The term "Excess Sales Proceeds" is defined in the Resale Agreement as the amount by which the gross sales proceeds you receive from the ineligible buyer exceed the Maximum Restricted Resale Price for the home. Another way to put it is the following: Gross Amount of Money the New Buyer Paid for the House 451 42 394\09\1903732.3 MINUS Maximum Restricted Resale Price (from City Response Notice) EQUALS Payment to the City of Excess Sales Proceeds The amount of Excess Sales Proceeds that you pay to the City is used by the City for other affordable housing programs to help other median and moderate income families purchase a home. Example 3 shows how the Excess Sales Proceeds are calculated. EXAMPLE 3 You sell your house at the end of eight years. You originall y paid $341,000 for your home. The City Response Notice sets the Maximum Restricted Resale Price at $398,560. The City does not choose to purchase your own, and you are unable to find a buyer who qualifies as an eligible purchaser. You sell the house for $500,000. You must pay the City Excess Sales Proceeds as calculated below: Total Amount Market Purchaser Paid For House $ 500,000 MINUS Maximum Restricted Resale Price (from City Response Notice) - 398,500 Amount of Excess Sales Proceeds You Pay to City $101,500 In cases where transfer of your home to another person is by means other than sale (with the exception of a creditor taking title), the amount of Excess Sales Proceeds is the difference between the original purchase price and the fair market value of the home at the time of transfer VIOLATIONS OF BMR REQUIREMENTS If you violate any provisions of the City documents, you are considered to be in default under the Resale Agreement. Also, if you default under any loan on the home, such as a mortgage or home equity loan, you would also be considered to be in default under the Resale Agreement. If you do not correct the violation, the City could require you to repay Excess Sales Proceeds and/or exercise its option and buy your home for the Maximum Restricted Resale Price. The City could also go to court and get a court order to enforce the provisions of the City documents, which may result in a foreclosure on your home. The City may learn of violations of the Resale Agreement and program restrictions through periodic audits and other resources available to the City. The City may take all actions necessary to verify occupancy of the unit by the persons on the title to the unit. Any homeowner who violates the terms of the Resale Agreement may be forced to sell the unit to the City, who 452 43 394\09\1903732.3 will normally then sell the unit to the next eligible purchaser on the waitlist. The City will require the owner to reimburse the City for any rent that was collected in excess of that allowed by the Resale Agreement. Forced Sale due to Breach of Resale Agreement with Option to Purchase Owners who breach the requirements of the Resale Agreement are violating the City Council’s policy of providing homeownership opportunities to median and moderate income households. The number of people on the BMR waitlist often exceeds the number of BMR units available. Therefore, when the City confirms that an owner has breached the terms of the Resale Agreement, especially b y not living in the BMR unit, the City may exercise its option and force the sale of the BMR unit. Foreclosure If a lender records a Notice of Default on a BMR unit, then a breach of the terms of the Resale Agreement has occurred. The City shall inform the owner of the action that needs to be taken to cure the default and by what date the default must be cured. If the owner is unable to cure the default, then the City again may exercise its option and force the sale of the BMR unit to preserve the unit as affordable housing. 453 44 394\09\1903732.3 Signature Page Please sign this Buyer's Disclosure Statement in the space provided below, keep a signed copy for your records, and return the original to the City at the following address: City of Cupertino Community Development Department 10300 Torre Avenue Cupertino, CA 95104 I have received, read and understand the above Buyer's Disclosure Statement.

Recommended Action: Authorize: 1. Staff to develop a process for the review and processing of requests for Single-Story Overlay Districts in Single-Family Residential (R-1) Zones (including guidelines and related Zoning Ordinance amendment); and, 2. Budget amendment for $10,000. Description Creation of a review procedure and process for Single-Story Overlay Districts in Single- Family Residential (R-1) Zones including guidelines and related Zoning Ordinance Amendment. Discussion: After the City’s recent approval of a Two-Story home on Oakview Lane, neighbors in the project vicinity have informed Staff that they intend to request that their neighborhood be re-zoned to include a Single-Story Overlay District to restrict homes to a single story. The City does not currently have a process to create such overlay districts. Staff therefore recommends that the Council authorize the creation of a process so that both applicants and all residents in the neighborhood have the necessary information to apply for and comment on Single-Story overlays on their properties. 461 A number of neighboring cities, including Mountain View and Los Altos, have processes that Staff will include in their research. The work product will include:  Guidelines and related Zoning Ordinance amendment to review Single-Story Overlay Districts in R-1 neighborhoods;  Associated environmental review; and,  Associated fees. Sustainability Impact: No impact Fiscal Impact: Staff is requesting a budget amendment of $10,000 for creation of the process and related guidelines and Zoning Ordinance amendments. Costs include fees for environmental and legal consultants, and newspaper advertising to comply with noticing requirements. As part of developing the process for reviewing Overlay Districts, Staff will propose a fee structure that is comparable to other jurisdictions, and best encapsulates the amount of resources required to evaluate and process overlay requests. _____________________________________ Prepared by: Erick Serrano, Associate Planner Reviewed by: Benjamin Fu, Assistant Director of Community Development Reviewed by: Aarti Shrivastava, Assistant City Manager Approved for Submission by: David Brandt, City Manager Attachments: None 462 CITY OF CUPERTINO Legislation Details (With Text) File #: Version:116-1380 Name: Status:Type:Reports by Council and Staff Agenda Ready File created:In control:1/14/2016 City Council On agenda:Final action:8/2/2016 Title:Subject: Report on Committee assignments and general comments Sponsors: Indexes: Code sections: Attachments: Action ByDate Action ResultVer.
