LPFD Fire Prevention. General Plan: Public Safety Element —Policy 13 <br /> Programs 13.6 and 13.7 (INFRA-c-3); <br /> • Ensure all dead-end segments of public roads in high hazard areas have at least a "T" <br /> intersection turn-around sufficient for typical wildland fire equipment. LPFD Fire <br /> Prevention. Estimated cost is $10,000. We could improve access and turnarounds for the <br /> urban-wildland interface areas and improve apparatus access to some of the homes on the <br /> Pleasanton ridge. (INFRA-c-4); <br /> • Ensure minimum road width meets current code, city ordinances, and LPFD operational <br /> standards on all driveways and road segments in wildfire hazard areas. LPFD Fire <br /> Prevention. (INFRA-c-5); <br /> • Require that development in high fire hazard areas provide adequate access roads (with <br /> width and vertical clearance that meet the minimum standards of the Fire Code or <br /> relevant local ordinance), onsite fire protection systems, evacuation signage, and fire <br /> breaks.

City Manager's Office. (INFRA-d-4); <br /> • Pursue funding for the design and construction of storm drainage projects to protect <br /> vulnerable properties, including property acquisitions, upstream storage such as detention <br /> basins, and channel widening with the associated right-of-way acquisitions, relocations, <br /> and environmental mitigations.
