47 | City of Pleasanton 2023-2031 Housing Element 3. Conduct a water distribution system capacity analysis to ensure future distribution system needs, including any necessary upgrades and new facilities to accommodate the 6th Cycle RHNA, and on the basis of that study, identify and prioritize capital improvement projects and funding needs. 4. Continue to assess and plan for adequate water supply, including completion of groundwater treatment improvements to address known contaminants in City- operated wells; completion of water supply and operational plan updates, undertaking required updates to the City’s Urban Water Management Plan; working with water suppliers including Zone 7 to ensure adequate supplies; and implementation of the City’s recycled water and water conservation programs (see Program 4.5, below). 5. Identify funding mechanisms for infrastructure improvements contained in the General Plan to accommodate projected housing growth. The City will continue to make infrastructure improvements on an as-needed basis, and based on the priorities established in the above-referenced water and sewer capacity and needs assessments, to accommodate existing and planned growth, typically funded through the Capital Improvement Program (CIP), in turn funded by the General Fund and developer impact fees and connection fees. • Responsible Agency: Operation Services Department, Planning Division • Time Period: Complete a sewer/wastewater and water system capacity analysis and adopt written policies and procedures that grant sewer and water hookups priority (September 2023); review Capital Improvement Program (CIP) and make affirmative changes by next CIP adoption (August 2023) • Funding Source: Capital Improvement Program Budget, Sewer Enterprise Fund, Housing Grants, Planning Division Budget • Quantified Objective: Implement seven projects, with projects and priority to be established in the facilities planning process, during the Housing Element planning period • Geographic Targeting: Aim to implement at least two infrastructure projects in the Downtown area, which is an area of relatively lower income households, to facilitate infill housing development Program 4.5 The City will take action to ensure adequate water supply to serve the needs of existing and future residents resulting from the additional housing capacity described in this Housing Element. As stated in Appendix C (Housing Constraints), this will include completion of a comprehensive study (underway) including analysis of near-term replacement of water supply impacted by PFAS contamination of City wells, and longer-term supply enhancements to accommodate future growth, including the following potential strategies. The suite of strategies under consideration may include:
