Most of the City’s existing <br />collection system is in satisfactory condition and operates in accordance with acceptable industry <br />standards for conveyance of average dry weather flows, peak hourly dry weather flows, and peak <br />wet weather flows during a generally acceptable storm event. The Pleasanton General Plan <br />adopted in 2009 identified the need for future improvements to the existing local collection and <br />pumping system. These improvements included the construction of new or parallel sewers; <br />diversion structures; and modifications, improvements, or complete reconstruction of various <br />pump stations. The General Plan also provides that maintaining and enhancing the existing local <br />sewer collection system will be funded as part of the City’s Capital Improvement Program (CIP), <br />and new sewer lines will be funded and constructed by new development as it occurs. The City’s <br />sewer capacity is sufficient to serve the housing sites identified in Appendix B (Sites Inventory & <br />Methodology); however, under Program 4.4 the City will ensure future sewer infrastructure <br />remains adequate.
