The water pump station shall be designed in terms of architectural style, materials. and <br />color consistent with the Medium Density Residential district design character. The <br />station shall be situated and designed so that the noise level of the pump does not exceed <br />50 dBA at the property line or boundary of easement on the land on which it is situated. <br />C. SANITARY SEWER <br />The Plan Area currently has no on-site public sewage collection facilities. Existing homes <br />maintain their own septic disposal systems. The nearest trunk sewer line is located <br />approximately 600 feet west of the Plan Area , just east of Tioga Court. This 8-inch line <br />conveys wastewater to the Cross Town Interceptor located just north of First Street at Vineyard <br />Avenue . The Vineyard Sewer Master Plan Study, completed in 1993 for the City by Carollo <br />Engineers, identified capacity deficiencies in this existing line to meet wet weather flows. The <br />Carollo study recommended construction of a new, larger capacity trunk line to accommodate <br />wet weather flows plus future growth throughout the entire Master Plan area. <br />Engineering work for Section 1 of a three-part construction program was approved in the City's <br />1993 /94 Capital Improvement Program (CIP). Construction of improvements including an 18- <br />inch parallel sewer trunk line between First Street and Bernal Avenue was funded in the 1995/96 <br />CIP. An easement for this first portion of work is currently being acquired, and construction <br />is scheduled to follow shortly. <br />Replacement of the remaining segment of the original eight-inch line between Bernal A venue and <br />Tioga Court (Section 2) was identified in the 1998/99 CIP . Independent review of the sizing <br />for this replacement line was completed for the City by G. S. Dodson & Associates in February <br />of 1998. This pipe size is based on a reduced wastewater flow , consistent with development <br />yields reflected in this Specific Plan. Development within the Plan Area will provide a major <br />source of funding for the new line . <br />A ten-inch diameter Section 3 trunk line will ultimately be extended easterly from Tioga Court <br />to Vineyard A venue, and then reduced to an eight-inch diameter line along the realigned <br />Vineyard A venue through the Plan Area. Construction of a pump station and roughly 500-feet <br />of permanent force main will also be required. These facilities will be constructed on and <br />adjoining the westerly end of Lot 18 and are in lieu of an otherwise necessary deep sewer <br />identified in the Carollo study (depths of 25-30 feet). The pump station and force main will <br />result in a substantial capital cost savings (with some added operational costs for pumping), <br />while adding flexibility as to the sewer alignment. The new sewer line , pump station and force <br />main will have sufficient capacity to accommodate all contemplated uses within the Plan Area. <br />79
