8.A. - Page 2 of 36 <br />Shortly after the February 2020 meeting, the State of California and San Mateo County issued the shelter <br />in place public health orders. The Covid-19 pandemic and associated shutdown forced changes to the <br />community engagement approach and delayed the overall schedule for the Transit District. The <br />pandemic drastically reduced transit ridership, creating financial impacts to all forms of transit, specifically <br />Caltrain. Staff delayed community outreach work through early summer in order to focus attention on <br />critical pandemic -related information and services. Summer and fall 2020 were then devoted to <br />restructured public outreach efforts as well as on Caltrain efforts for a new funding mechanism, Measure <br />RR, which was approved by voters in November 2020. <br />With the passing of Measure RR, Caltrain now has a stable source of funding for operations. Work <br />on system electrification is continuing with electrified service scheduled to start in 2022. Transit District <br />public outreach is now also in process and initial feedback is discussed further in this report. <br />PROJECT DESCRIPTION <br />The Transit District is 17.5 acres with over 2,200 linear feet along the Caltrain tracks. It is made up of the <br />Sequoia Station property of 12 acres, a bus station of 2.5 acres, the A-1 Party Rental site of 0.4 acres, and <br />the Perry parcel (surface parking lot) of 2.5 acres, which is reserved for future station platforms and <br />amenities (see Figure 1). There are three key components for the Transit District - station redesign, grade <br />separations, and land development. <br />Figure 1— Proposed Map of Transit District <br />Development Parcels <br />� 4: <br />............................................. �sr <br />\( <br />Perry Parcel <br />Ownership: Peninsula Corridor Joint Powers Board (JPB) <br />(Caltrain) <br />Site Area: 2.5±Acres <br />rLLLsr <br />............................................... <br />......... <br />....:............................... <br />Transit Center d aa� Awa <br />Ownership: Peninsula Corridor)PB (Caltrain), <br />TER Terry L Family Trust (A -L Party Rental) <br />Site Area: 3±Acres .iLa <br />Sequoia Station Shopping Center <br />Ownership: REGB Sequoia Station (Regency Centers <br />Station Redesign <br />Page 2 of 12 <br />City of Redwood City 1017 Middlefield Road, Redwood City, CA. 94063 Tel: 650-780-7000 www.redwoodcity.org <br />194 <br />Safeway, Inc. <br />San Mateo Co Transit Dist (SamTrans) <br />'.
