The new plan continues to expand upon the work of the prior plan including emphasizing partnerships both within jurisdictions and special districts as well as with external stakeholders. Further, there is an increased emphasis on climate change, reflecting the increased understanding of the risk this hazard poses to the OA. The Town did not identify additional changes in priorities to be highlighted in their annex. Jurisdiction Profile The following is a summary of key information about the jurisdiction and its history: Date of Incorporation: August 10, 1887 Current Population: 33,062 as of January 1, 2022 Population Growth: The Town of Los Gatos has experienced a 0.4 percent decline in the population between 2021 (33,193) and 2022 (33,062), according to the California Department of Finance. However, the Town has seen a steady increase in population over the last decade, from 29,413 in 2010, to 32,402 in 2022, as reported by the U.S. Census Bureau. Location and Description: The Town of Los Gatos, California, is nestled at the base of the Sierra Azules, approximately 60 miles south of San Francisco, in the southwestern portion of Santa Clara County, where the Santa Clara Valley meets the lower slopes of the Santa Cruz Mountains. Los Gatos is bounded by the City of San Jose to the north and east, the City of Campbell to the north, the Cities of Monte Sereno and Saratoga to the west, and the unincorporated County of Santa Clara and the County of Santa Cruz to the south. Los Gatos encompasses a wide variety of terrain, both the valley and hillsides are interspersed with creeks, streams, and riparian habitat. Brief History: The name Los Gatos comes from "El Rancho de Los Gatos," a ranch established in 1839 by a Mexican land grant and so named because of the large number of mountain lions in the area. Wheat production in the mid-1800s gave way to orchards, and rapid growth ensued when the railroad reached Los Gatos in 1878. Residential subdivisions were built and by 1887, the population had grown to 1,500, and Los Gatans voted to incorporate. Highway 17 was constructed through the center of Town, opening in 1940. Los Gatos grew slowly over the first 80 years, but today Los Gatos covers nearly 15 square miles and has a population of over 30,000. Climate: Los Gatos enjoys a mild Mediterranean climate. Summers are dry and warm in the 80- to 100-degree Fahrenheit (°F) range. Winters are temperate and semi -moist in the 40-60°F range. Los Gatos receives most of its precipitation in December through March. The average annual precipitation is 30.7 inches, making Los Gatos wetter than most places in California. Governing Body Format: The Town of Los Gatos is governed by a five -member Town Council that sets policy that the Town Manager is responsible for administering. The Town Council assumes responsibility for the adoption of this Plan, and the Town Manager will oversee its implementation. The Town consists of nine departments: the Town Manager's Office, Clerk, Town Attorney, Finance, Human Resources, Library, Police, Community Development, and Parks and Public Works. The Town is served by 14 Boards, Commissions, and Committees, which are all advisory to the Town Council. Development Trends According to the 2020 Land Use Element of the Los Gatos General Plan, preserving the small-town heritage, natural setting, and architectural diversity is important to this community. Anticipated residential and commercial development levels for Los Gatos are low to moderate, consisting primarily of residential remodels and commercial renovations. The Town's Housing Element, adopted in 2015, identifies strategies to meet the Town's share of the regional housing needs, including a focus on affordable housing and increasing the number of second units on existing properties. The Town of Los Gatos 2040 General Plan was adopted on June 30, 2022, and includes elements relating to racial, social, and environmental justice, community design, public facilities, open spaces, and hazard safety. Future growth and development in Los Gatos are managed in accordance with this plan. The Town of Los Gatos has increased its population since the previous plan was developed, but most developments were remodels and commercial renovations. All new development was subject to the regulatory capabilities identified in this annex. For those hazards that have townwide impacts (including Earthquake, Drought, Inclement Weather — Heavy Precipitation/Atmospheric River/High Winds/Extreme Heat/Extreme Cold) the Town estimated that vulnerability had increased due to new development and the annexation of unincorporated County land which has occurred. More details regarding recent and future developments are outlined in Table 282. Hazards with a more clearly identified extent and location (Wildfire, Flood, Dam/Levee Failure, Landslide/Mass Movement) are harder to define. No significant development was noted downstream of a high hazard potential dam. Residential development may have occurred in the SFHA, high landslide susceptibility zones, or areas at high risk of wildfire, but the town cannot estimate the precise impact this would have on its vulnerability. Given that most of the town is already built out with limited vacant property that is even buildable, it is anticipated the change in vulnerability to these hazards due to increased development has been minimal to none. Table 3: Recent and Expected Future Development Trends Criterion Response --- ---_----- --,- _ Has your jurisdiction annexed any land since the development of the previous hazard mitigation plan?

Actions that can expand and improve existing authorities, plans, policies, and resources for mitigation include: • Developing a Climate Action Plan which incorporates hazard data and actions to adapt to a changing climate. • Budgeting and passing policies and procedures for mitigation actions. • Adopting and implementing stricter mitigation regulations. • Approving the training of staff for mitigation activities. • Approving mitigation updates to existing plans as new needs are recognized. • Continuing to update plans as necessary to ensure they are current and reflect the needs of the community or special district. • Further developing warning systems and messaging. • Creating and implementing additional public education and outreach offerings and increasing the volume of translated materials. • Ensuring grant opportunities are capitalized upon to meet mitigation goals. Each type of the four FEMA-identified capabilities were evaluated, in addition to OA-priority capabilities like adaptive capacity. Gaps and limitations, if any, are discussed in the tables above. Additional jurisdiction -specific opportunities to expand on and improve capabilities for reducing risk include: • Hire staff to implement fuel reduction programs and to manage related grants. • Train staff on hazards and reviewing developmental projects. • Expand and hire new grant writing and grant administration staff. • Expand the CERT program and volunteer management staff. The community supports the staff and the program, but there is no current funding. • Expand emergency alerts and hazard alarm systems (outdoor warning siren) for wildfire, and all other hazards. • Increase funding and opportunities for mitigation action implementation through programs like BRIC and ICARP. Since the last plan update, multiple new grant programs that support mitigation measures have been established. FEMA's annual BRIC grant program funds a variety of mitigation actions including infrastructure projects, nature -based solutions, climate adaptation, hazard resistant building codes, and projects benefitting disadvantaged communities. This program is funded annually, meaning jurisdictions can apply on a consistent basis, rather than waiting for a disaster declaration to make additional mitigation funds available. Within California, the Governor's Office of Planning and Research has established the Integrated Climate Adaptation and Resiliency Program (ICARP) which funds multiple grants related to climate adaptation and resilience. Types of projects that could be funded under ICARP grants include adaptation planning, capacity building, climate resilience measures, and reducing the impacts of extreme heat. Integration with Other Planning Initiatives This section describes the process for integrating the hazard mitigation plan into local planning mechanisms. Existing Integration The following plans and programs currently integrate the goals, risk assessment and/or recommendations of the 2017 hazard mitigation plan: • General Plan: The General Plan includes a Hazard and Safety Element that directly addresses mitigation capabilities and initiatives. • Community Wildfire Protection Plan: The Community Wildfire Protection Plan outlines many mitigation strategies for the town, and they have been reviewed for incorporation. • Ad Hoc Wildfire Committee Report: Town Council approved the creation of a Town Council Ad Hoc Committee to study wildfire mitigation in the Wildland Urban Interface (WUI). The Committee studied a broad variety of wildfire mitigation policy and project options to improve the Town's wildfire resiliency. The Committee examined best practices of similar WUI communities, lessons learned from recent fires, and other relevant areas of wildfire science. • Emergency Operation Plan: The Emergency Operation plan integrates many pieces of the Hazard Mitigation Plan through a Hazard Analysis, Preparedness, Response, Recovery, and Mitigation sections. • Sustainability Plan: The Adaptive Capacity for Climate Change section of the Hazard Mitigation Plan integrates into the Sustainability Plan. • Ordinances: The Zoning, Subdivision, and other natural hazard specific ordinances have been reviewed for cross integration of mitigation strategies. • Land Development Regulations: They all consider climate adaptation and hazard mitigation in the updates, especially subdivision regulations. • Building Code: The Building Code currently integrates the Hazard Mitigation Plan by enforcing codes that will mitigate disaster damages. These plans and programs will continue to integrate the 2023 hazard mitigation plans and goals and will be updated to match new information as each of these plans and programs are updated. Opportunities for Future Integration The following plans and programs do not currently integrate the goals, risk assessment and/or recommendations of the hazard mitigation plan, but provide an opportunity for future integration: • Green Stormwater Infrastructure Plan: Green Stormwater Infrastructure Plan does not currently address natural hazards but has been identified to implement mitigation actions in the future. Information that could be incorporated into the Green Stormwater Infrastructure Plan include hazard risk data, the history of previous events, GIS data, and related mitigation actions. This plan was prepared in conjunction with the West Valley Clean Water Authority, a collaborative partnership between the Cities of Campbell, Monte Sereno, Saratoga, and Los Gatos. The Town staff who participated in this plan update will be responsible for integrating this 2023 MJHMP into other planning mechanisms. The Director of Parks and Public Works/Floodplain Administrator, as well as the city's Senior Analyst from the Office of Town Manager, participated in this plan update. They, along with the city's other team members, will be responsible for disseminating information on this plan and ensuring it's integration into other planning mechanisms moving forward. Jurisdiction -Specific Natural Hazard Event History Table 14 lists all past occurrences of natural hazards within the jurisdiction. Table 14: Natural Hazard Events Type of Event FEMA Disaster # Date Preliminary (if applicable) Damage Assessment Flood DR-4683 01/14/2023 Trees, roadways, concrete, roofs, fencing all due to wind damage Jurisdiction -Specific Vulnerabilities • Five earthquake scenarios were generated using the Hazus modeling program. $469 million (5.2% of total value) in losses were estimated for Los Gatos in the 100-year probabilistic scenario, and $1.94 billion (21.33% of total value) for a 500-year probabilistic scenario. Of the 3 fault -based scenarios, the highest loss estimates for Los Gatos were from the Hayward Fault scenario, with an estimated $470 million in losses, or 5.23% of the total replacement value. Some private structures may be "soft -story" in need of hardening. • 8,311 people, 24.8% of the total population, are in wildfire hazard areas. Over $2 billion in structural value (19.75% of the total) are also in moderate to high wildfire hazard areas. 11 essential facilities are near wildfire hazard. • Potential inundation areas from dam failure could impact 5,721 people in Los Gatos. Property valued at $1.6 billion is within the potential inundation area of J Lenihan Dam. The proximity of the dam to Los Gatos would contributes to velocity and depth of the floodwaters impacting the town coupled with limited warning time. Over 2 miles of Hwy 17 below J Lenihan dam is in a potential inundation zone. Los Gatos Saratoga Rd and Norman Y Mineta Hwy are also major routes that could be impacted. 25 bridges, 4 schools and the city Emergency Operations Center. are also in potential inundation boundaries. • Hazus flood models estimate 1,216 people (3.6%) in Los Gatos are at risk to a 1 % annual chance flood hazard area, and 1,485 people (4.4%) are within the 0.2% annual chance flood hazard area. Losses estimated for the 1 % flood hazard are almost $170 million, and over $210 million for a 0.2% chance flood. • Los Gatos has a large area at moderate to high potential for landslide. 7,527 people (22.5%) are exposed to landslide hazards. An estimated $2.2 billion worth of structures are within the moderate to high landslide potential area. Numerous roads and structures are in moderate to high landslide susceptibility areas, primarily across the south portion of the town. Roads in the hills may have dead-end spurs and a landslide could severely limit road access. Heavy rain can contribute to landslide activity. • Drought is a hazard that has similar conditions over broad areas. It is anticipated that the impacts of drought will be fairly consistent across the OA. Drought impacts vegetation and can make it more vulnerable to disease and wildfire. Extended drought may necessitate limits on landscape irrigation or higher costs for irrigation, which can have economic impacts. Although agriculture is not a primary economic sector in the OA, drought can have severe negative impacts on growth of crops and gardens. Climate change is expected to contribute to more days with extreme heat and more days without precipitation, which may increase the impacts of drought. Any restrictions on water supply or increases in cost for water may be a financial hardship for low income households. • Impacts from inclement weather such as heavy rain, hail, and wind are likely to be very similar across the OA. Individual events may impact only limited areas, but the entire OA is at risk to similar conditions. Climate change may increase the frequency or severity of these events. • Heavy rain may cause localized flooding on roadways and low-lying areas which may disrupt transportation for the general public and can also delay emergency response. Heavy rain can also have cascading impacts on landslide potential or strain the capacity of dams. • High winds can disrupt power, communication and other services and cause damage to structures. Downed trees from high winds can have potential transportation impacts and requires debris removal and contributes to loss of tree canopy. • Extreme heat or cold can be harmful to health, particularly those with inadequate housing with adequate warming and cooling systems. The library currently serves as a heating and cooling center. • Tsunami was not profiled for the Town of Los Gatos due to distance from the shoreline and no direct risk. • Critical facilities need evaluation to determine if they need of retrofitting or hardening against hazards. Repetitive loss records are as follows: • Number of Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA)-identified Repetitive -Loss Properties (RL): 0 • Number of FEMA-identified Severe -Repetitive -Loss (SRL) Properties: 0 • Number of RL Properties or SRL Properties that have been mitigated: 0 Other noted vulnerabilities include: • The increasing frequency and intensity of drought and extreme heat due to climate change has resulted in a lengthening of the fire season. Dry spells during the winter months, especially when combined with winds and dead fuels, may result in fires that burn with a high intensity and rate. Extreme rain events are increasing in frequency. Climate change is also causing changes in flora and fauna, changes in ecosystems due to extreme heat, and higher temperatures. • In the case of a dam or levee breach, vulnerabilities include potential damage to downtown, which is downstream from Lexington Dam. Potential damage would extend down Los Gatos Creek to the City of Campbell. The second dam in that area that could also be breached (Vasona Dam). Homes, buildings, and infrastructure within the 100-year FEMA floodplain are at risk. • A secondary Town water supply has not been identified or developed, which poses a risk in long- term drought conditions. • Buildings with very high or high collapse potential include residential and commercial buildings constructed prior to 1990 that have not had seismic retrofits. Downtown has older structures, and the Town Hall is older. Three major bridges over Highway 17 owned by CalTrans could be vulnerable. Los Gatos Creek Trail and pedestrian bridges are vulnerable. The trail is a major transportation thoroughfare. • Street flooding occurs within the Town, and Loma Street floods frequently. • Steep slopes are present throughout the Town, some are close to roadways. Ground saturation may present an issue. • Vulnerabilities related to inclement weather include tree impacts (debris removal, potential transportation impacts), loss of tree canopy, and no sheltering capacity in Town (the daytime heating and cooling center is at the Library). • According to the 2017 MJHMP, 24% of the population lives in a wildfire severity zone. There are concerns related to inadequate evacuation infrastructure, as the roadway system is more rural, especially in hills and wildfire zones. There is an ongoing need for vegetation management in the very high severity zone. Populations living or working within the wildland-urban interface and people with chronic lung problems and other preexisting health conditions, children, pregnant women, and older adults are vulnerable. Social Vulnerability 'pure 4 shows that Los Gatos mostly has low levels of social vulnerability. The characteristics of the population in Los Gatos indicate they will likely be more resilient to the effects of hazards than communities with higher vulnerability scores. An area of increased vulnerability in the north -central area of the city has higher indicator scores for household characteristics such as persons over age 65, persons under 17, and persons with disabilities. This area also has higher vulnerability for housing type and transportation indicators, such as households with no vehicle available and a higher percentage of multi- unit housing. The northern census tract also has a higher percentage of Hispanic or Latino persons, and a higher percentage of Asian residents. Hazards risk areas that have some overlap with these areas of higher vulnerability include flood, dam failure, and higher liquefaction susceptibility.

Status of Previous Plan Actions Participants were asked to report the status of their mitigation actions listed in the previous plan as a part of this plan update. Where further information isn't provided, the answers are defined as follows: • Completed — work on this action is totally complete. • Completed and ongoing — work on this action is complete; however, it is an ongoing project that will continue to be implemented. An example is a public outreach campaign that was created and will continue to be implemented. • In progress — work on this action has begun and is in progress, but the action is not yet complete. • Retain — work on this action has not begun yet, the action is still relevant, and it should be in the 2023 MJHMP. • No longer relevant — Action item is no longer relevant due to reduce or eliminated risk, it no longer being feasible, there has been a change in jurisdictional or organizational priorities, or another reason as stated. Unless specifically requested otherwise, only those actions listed as "retain" are incorporated into the 2023 action plan.

The maps in Figure 5 through Figure 12 present the Town's critical infrastructure, facilities, and identified hazard areas. The description of the expected time frames for actions are defined below: • Short term- 1-5 year • Medium term- 5-10 years • Long term- Over 10 years • Ongoing - Currently being funded and implemented under existing programs. The planning partners utilized the following criteria to prioritize action items into the categories of high, medium, or low. High Priority— A project that: • Meets multiple goals and objectives (i.e., multiple hazards); • Addresses multiple hazards; • Has benefits that exceed cost; • Has funding secured or is an ongoing project; • Meets eligibility requirements for Hazard Mitigation Assistance grants; • Can be completed in the short term (1 to 5 years); • Addresses immediate short-term impacts of climate change; • Benefits underserved and/or socially vulnerable populations; AND • Considers the Multi -Benefit Criteria utilized by the Santa Clara County Climate Collaborative, including equity, long-term value, ecosystem benefit, community benefit, and cross -jurisdictional alignment. Medium Priority— A project that: • Meets multiple goals and objectives; • Addresses multiple hazards; • Has benefits that exceed costs; • Has funding has not been secured, but that is grant eligible under Hazard Mitigation Assistance grants or other grant programs; • Project can be completed in the short term (1-5 years), once funding is secured. Medium priority projects will become high priority projects once funding is secured; • Addresses immediate short-term impacts of climate change; • Benefits underserved and/or socially vulnerable populations; AND • Considers the Multi -Benefit Criteria utilized by the Santa Clara County Climate Collaborative, including equity, long-term value, ecosystem benefit, community benefit, and cross -jurisdictional alignment. Low Priority— A project that: • Will mitigate the risk of at least one hazard; Volume 2: Town of Los Gatos 26 EXHIBIT A Santa Clara County Multijurisdictional Local Hazard Mitigation Plan • Has benefits that do not exceed the costs or are difficult to quantify: • Does not have secured funding; • Is not eligible for Hazard Mitigation Assistance grant funding; • Has a timeline for completion that is long term (greater than 5 years). Low priority projects may be eligible for other sources of grant funding from other programs; • May address impacts of climate change; • May benefit underserved and/or socially vulnerable populations; AND • Considers the Multi -Benefit Criteria utilized by the Santa Clara County Climate Collaborative, including equity, long-term value, ecosystem benefit, community benefit, and cross -jurisdictional alignment.
