7.A - Page 7 <br />prepared and the FY 2017-18 Overlay Project on Twin Dolphin Drive (between Marine <br />Parkway and Redwood Shores Parkway) is approved for the One Bay Area Grant <br />(OBAG) 2 Local Streets and Roads Preservation Program. This federal grant of $1.3 <br />million requires an 11.47 percent minimum match from the City. Staff are working on plan <br />specifications and estimates, and anticipate construction in 2019. <br />Milestones for other projects include design review for the Kennedy Safe Routes to <br />School project and preparation of bid documents for the Middlefield Road Utility <br />Undergrounding and Streetscape Project. Construction of both of these projects is <br />expected to begin this year. Right-of-way acquisition for the 101moodside Interchange <br />project is now fully funded following a February 2018 San Mateo County Transportation <br />Authority meeting that approved $20 million in Measure A Highway funds. This major <br />milestone bolsters the City's position for future funding opportunities from county, <br />regional, state, and federal transportation funds. Since August 2017, staff have been <br />working with AECOM Technical Services on development of construction bid documents <br />and coordination of utility relocations. Staff is also soliciting consultant services for right- <br />of-way acquisition and expects the work to begin in spring 2018. <br />Water <br />The Council adopted a resolution certifying the final environmental impact report and <br />selected the Hillside Tank Site Alternative in May 2017 for the California Tank and Pump <br />Station Project. To date, design is 90 percent complete and construction is planned for <br />the summer of 2018. <br />FY 2018-19 Financial Sustainabilitv Plan <br />The FY 2017-18 Adopted Budget was developed with a specific focus on maintaining the <br />long-term fiscal stability of the City through forward -thinking, meaningful action, and a <br />swift approach to addressing long-term liabilities through both revenue increases and <br />expenditure reductions over time. <br />As part of the FY 2017-18 Adopted Budget, the City Council approved recommendations <br />to reduce operating costs by approximately $6.0 million and increase revenue by <br />approximately $6.0 million in order to balance the City's budget over the next five fiscal <br />years. Staff recommends that this approach, now dubbed the Financial Sustainability <br />Plan, be implemented over two years. Operating cost reductions of approximately $3.8 <br />million are recommended for FY 2018-19, and additional reductions of $2.2 million are <br />recommended for FY 2019-20. In addition, new revenue sources are being explored as <br />detailed below. At this time, no new revenue is included in the Preliminary Five Year <br />Forecast because the prospects for new revenue are unknown at this time. Without new <br />revenue, deficits are projected beginning in FY 2019-20, and growing annually, even after <br />operating cost reductions are made. <br />
