Exhibit A
Scope of Services
The project will develop new regulations and policies to allow mobile vendors to
provide their services in designated areas of the city . This project is intended to be
complete within 5 months.
PROJECT UNDERSTANDING
The mobile vendors that will be allowed to operate under regulations and policies developed
through this project provide a range of services and activities , such as
•food trucks
•dry-cleaning pick-up and delivery
•bicycle repair trucks ·
•dentistry
•hair styling
•therapeutic massage , and
•mobile fueling of private vehicles
Other mobile services will be identified and designated as part of the scope of work .
In the City 's 2016 Economic Development Strategic Plan (EDSP), Strategy 9 specifically notes
both ongoing city efforts as well as recommended actions that will address the expanding issue of
mobile vending , including food and numerous other personal services that have the potential to
deliver mobile services. Many Bay Area communities have recently undergone , or are in the
process of developing efforts to implement policies and regulations that guide mobile vendor
activity , including Oakland , Fremont and San Francisco .
As noted in the EDSP , Mountain View recently developed an expedited permitting process that
specifically addresses potential traffic and congestion issues. All of the programs in neighboring
communities can inform a process that establishes a Mobile Vendor Ord inance in the City of
Cupertino .
Before being implemented city-wide in designated areas , the mobile vendor regulations will
initially be developed as a pilot project for specific parcels on Bubb Road, between Stevens
Creek Boulevard and McClellan Road .
SCOPE OF WORK
We envision that the regulations , design standards , and adoption criteria developed under this
Scope of Work for the Mobile Vendor Ordinance will be adopted as an amendment to the ML
District ordinance (Chapter 19. 72 , Light Industrial (ML) and Industrial Park (MP) Zones) or an
amendment to the City 's Mobile Vendor Permit Ordinance (Chapter 5.48 , Mobile Vendor
Permits). The envisioned Pilot Project for the implementation of the Mobile Vendor Ordinance w ill
be in the ML District. Upon completion of the Pilot Project , the City may elect to broaden the
applicability of the Ordinance to General Commercial (CG) Zones .
TASK 1 -KICK-OFF MEETING
M-Group will meet w ith City staff to confirm the primary objectives of the new standards and
requirements needed to implement a Mobile Vendor ordinance , initially as a pilot program on
Bubb Road sites . The meeting will also include discussion of the project website , the community
engagement strategy , and identification of project t imeline milestones .
Task 1 Deliverable : Memorandum listing action items and outcomes of the Kick-Off Meeting.
TASK 2 -COMMUNITY ENGAGEMENT
Subtask 2.1 -Project Website Development
M-Group w ill develop a project web page in coordination with development of project web pages
for the Incubator & Accelerator Space and Innovation District Vision Plan projects . The three
Project web pages will be linked to a common home page , with individual pages for each project.
The home page will be embedded or linked within the City's existing website.
Colors , styles , and fonts will be developed in a coordinated way that demonstrates a common
design theme and emphasizes the relationship of all three projects to the overall strategy of
implementing the EDSP. The webpage will be updated a minimum of once per month , or as
necessary, with all relevant project information including updates about upcoming meetings and
deliverables .
Subtask 2.2 -Community Engagement Strategy
M-Group will prepare a tailored outreach strategy for the Mobile Vendor Project based on the
discussion with City staff at the Project Kick-Off Meeting . A significant component of the outreach
will be to existing "Brick and Mortar" businesses in Cupertino to ensure those businesses
understand the goals of the ordinance and can express concerns and provide input. M-Group will
prepare all the materials and presentations for the website and community meeting for approval
by city staff. This Scope of Work assumes that City staff will take the lead on meeting notifications
and logistics .
Task 2 Deliverables: Project Webpage and Memorandum outlining the Community Engagement
Strategy.
TASK 3 -DRAFT REGULATIONS AND POLICIES
Subtask 3.1 -Background Research on Mobile Services
M-Group will research regulations and design standards being used in other communities to
regulate mobile services. M-Group will review the City 's CG and ML ordinances as well as the
Mobile Vendor Permit Ordinance to develop a preliminary list of potential uses , services , and site
development regulations to be considered as part of this project. This research could also
develop a list of services or types of mobile activities that would not be allowed .
Subtask 3.2 -Develop Criteria
M-Group will develop a set of criteria that could be used as a checklist during the Mobile Vendor
Permit process .
Subtask 3.3 -Site Selection
M-Group will conduct a survey of potential sites at which mobile services are envisioned to be
allowed , specifically focused on Pilot Project sites. This will help us develop an understanding of
potential issues that might be involved with the use of the site , including general site and urban
design solutions that could be considered for vendor staging . M-Group assumes that this site
survey will only consider sites the City envisions being used for the Pilot Project to introduce the
Mobile Vendor ordinance .
Subtask 3.4 -Urban Design Standards
M-Group will develop an illustrated selection of site design criteria that are necessary
components of the Mobile Vendor ordinance .
Subtask 3.5 -Draft Regulations and Policies
M-Group will develop for city review draft regulations and policies to implement a Mobile Vendor
ordinance . We envision that these will be developed as an amendment to the ML District
ordinance (Chapter 19 .72 , Light Industrial (ML) and Industrial Park (MP) Zones) or an
amendment to the City 's Mobile Vendor Permit ordinance (Chapter 5.48 , Mobile Vendor Permits).
Task 3 Deliverable : Draft Mobile Vendor ordinance with design standards for City review.
TASK 4 -STAFF REVIEW
Following City review , M-Group will meet with City staff to discuss proposed modifications to the
Draft MDbile Vendor ordinance in advance of public review.
TASK 5 -COMMUNITY INPUT
Subtask 5.1 -Revised Modifications
M-Group will create a revised Draft Ordinance for use on the project web page and at the
Community Meeting .
Subtask 5.2 -Post to Website
Following City review of the Revised Draft Ordinance , M-Group will post it to the project web
page .
Subtask 5.3 -Community Meeting
M-Group will plan for and facilitate a workshop with the community , including retail and restaurant
business owners , to provide an overview of the proposed Mobile Vendor Ordinance . The M-
Group team will provide all appropriate materials and presentation to help facilitate the workshop .
City staff will be responsible for meeting logistics (meeting location , food and beverages , etc .).
Task 5 Deliverables: Revised Draft Ordinance . Workshop meeting agenda , presentation ,
workshop materials and summary of results and community comments.
TASK 6 -REVISIONS TO THE COMMUNITY DRAFT
Following discussion with City staff regarding issue and comments made during the Community
Workshop , M-Group will prepare the Mobile Vendor ordinance . We assume the ordinance will
initially be designated for specific parcels in the Bubb Road area as a Pilot Project.
Task 6 Deliverable: Final Draft of the Mobile Vendor Ordinance .
TASK 7 -CEQA COMPLIANCE
Based on the currently available information , M-Group envisions that compliance with CEQA will
be achieved using a Categorical Exemption. This preliminary determination will be reviewed on
an on-going basis to ensure compliance with CEQA. Based upon the scope of this project , the
development of standards and requirements to allow mobile vendors on developed employment
sites , it would appear to be consistent with the intent of a Class 4 Exemption since the
implementation of any new standards and requirements would result in an activity consistent with
a Class 4 Exemption .
Activities under the Class 4 Exemption consist of minor public or private alterations in the
condition of land , water, and/or vegetation which do not involve removal of healthy , mature ,
scenic trees . Examples include , but are not limited to : ... "(e) Minor temporary use of land having
negligible or no permanent effects on the environment, including carnivals , sales of Christmas
trees , etc ." As part of this task M-Group will prepare language for inclusion in the staff report and
will prepare the Notice of Exemption following the final approval action by the City . This scope of
work assumes that the City will file the Notice of Determination with the County .
Task 7 Deliverable: Notice of Ex emption.
TASK 8 -PUBLIC HEARINGS
M-Group will attend up to two public meetings as part of this scope of work. Additional public
meetings beyond the two anticipated would be charged on a time and materials basis. M-Group
will prepare a PowerPoint presentation for use before the Planning Commission and City Council.
This task assumes that only minor revisions will be needed to update the PowerPoint
presentation for the City Council.
Task 8 Deliverable : Staff report summarizing the Mobile Vendor Ordinance, including rationale
for the Notice of Ex emption . The M-Group project manager will attend the public hearings and
present the proposed ordinance provisions to the Planning Commission and City Council.
OPTIONAL TASK 9 -CALIBRATION
Following introduction of the Pilot Project, M-Group will revisit the regulations , policies , and
design standards of the Mobile Vendor Ordinance , so that it could be applied to a broader
selection of parcels or zoning districts in the City . As part of this Optional Task, M-Group will
identify sites and parcels for which the ordinance would be allowed .
