Miscellaneous • The CIP includes an increase to projected funding for Downtown Parkin? Improvements with $800,000 in this CIP. This funding is in addition to an existing reserve of $1,750,000. The additional amount is recommended to reflect negotiations with Alameda County to purchase the Downtown Rail Corridor. While an agreement in principal has not yet been reached, this additional funding should be available to offset the acquisition. As indicated previously, this CIP is not funding existing reserve projects. However, an exception was made for this project because it is in the final stages of funding. • 125 000 is included to add electrical services to Civic Park located at Main and Bernal. The services will be beneficial in addressing special events and holiday lighting. • A total of $16,972,865 is allocated to the CIPR to address specific high priority City Council Projects included in its Annual Work Plan. It is estimated that this funding will be used for existing projects such as the Alviso Adobe Community Park, (most likely allocated prior to the adoption of this CIP) the Firehouse Arts Center and Bernal Park Phase I Sports Fields and new projects such as improvements to the Bernal Property, the City Library and Civic Center and acquisition of the Downtown rail corridor. • As discussed earlier, also included is $3,800,000 for the North Pleasanton and/or Downtown Improvement Reserve. Specific projects will be identified in the future. Water And Sewer • A total of 1 400 000 is allocated for Annual Sanitary Sewer Main Replacement and Improvements and $1,600,000 for Water replacement projects. • Major water improvement projects include the installation of a 12" pipeline on foothill road south of Oak Tree Farm Drive and $300,000 to address water tank corrosion repairs. V. CONCLUSION This CIP presents a wide range of street, parks, utility and public facility projects that will address many community interests and needs including maintenance of existing infrastructure and new projects. However, the City is currently involved with significant planning activities that will potentially place a heavy emphasis on prioritizing, scheduling and funding a range of new projects that will impact future CIP's and the City Operating Budget. As an example, a listing of major projects currently being studied, planned, or designed include the following: • Acquisition of Additional Downtown Parking • Additional Lighted Sports Fields • Alviso Community Park Construction • Civic Center Master Plan • Firehouse Arts Center Construction
