Engineer Mike Tassano has stated these hours make the location possible because of all of the area's other uses. She stated the other jurisdictions have already agreed to the site so she will too. Mayor Brown opened the public hearing. Greg Jones stated he has been petitioning DSRSD for over a year to bring back the filling station. He stated he was a regular user of the previous station and would love to see it return. He noted there is a lot of interest in what was a popular program in the past, but the costs were overwhelming in previous iterations. He encouraged the Council to approve the item. He added next year could likely be another drought year and they should not let this opportunity slip by when they look at it in hindsight. Councilmember Arkin stated there were 1,600 Pleasanton regular users of the previous station and she struggles with the proposed site's limitations for fears it will prevent people from being able to use the station. She stated she could support the item if there is a weekend day or weeknight open to help working people be able to utilize it. City Manager Beaudin cautioned against committing to something specific tonight that could cause issues with events at the park. He added the agreement is structured to allow the agencies to confer and adjust the hours of operation based on demand. Mayor Brown closed the public hearing. Councilmember Narum moved to authorize the City Manager to execute the agreement, allocate the City's portion of the construction, and direct staff to further explore expanding the hours of operation to include a weekend day or weeknight. Councilmember Arkin seconded the motion. Councilmember Narum stated her impression is the park is mostly used for adult soccer leagues on Sunday mornings, generating less traffic than youth sports. She asked staff to look at this window as a potential option. She added the City has collaborative relationships with the City of Livermore and DSRSD. She noted this is the third iteration of the project and the one most beneficial to Pleasanton. She noted the other agencies have already approved the agreement and Pleasanton should too in the spirit of collaboration. She noted the dramatically lower cost than previous versions. Councilmember Arkin stated the assurance staff will look into a weeknight or weekend day helps her decision to support. Councilmember Balch thanked the Zone 7 Water Agency for allowing their location to be used. He added he will support the motion. Councilmember Testa stated the other jurisdictions agreeing to the project is nice, adding they are paying two-thirds of the cost for something in Pleasanton. MOTION: It was m/s by Narum/Arkin to approve the agreement between the City of Pleasanton, City of Livermore, and Dublin San Ramon Services District for the construction and operation of a temporary joint residential recycled water fill station and authorize $160,500 for project expense with direction to evaluate additional weekend or weeknight operating hours.
