the EI Charro Specific Plan, including a North Overbank and a South Detention Conveyance Facility ("Livermore Flood Protection Improvements°), which would remove a portion of the EI Charro Specific Plan from the 100-year flood zone, without impacting downstream development. The Livermore Flood Protection Improvements remove a portion of the developable area of the EI Charro Specific Plan from the 100-year flood zone and will also remove all portions of the Staples Ranch Property from the 100-year flood zone; and WHEREAS, Livermore is currently negotiating with the Alameda County Flood Control and Water Conservation District, Zone 7 ("Zone T') for reimbursement from Zone 7 for all or part of the proposed Livermore Flood Protection Improvements. Both Livermore and Authority wish to cooperate to fairly share the costs of both EI Charro Road and the Livermore Flood Protection Improvements, which costs include the cost of design, construction, mitigation and any lease of land; and WHEREAS, it is the intent of Livermore, Pleasanton, and Authority to cooperate to facilitate the development of the EI Charro Specific Plan and Staples Ranch Property; and WHEREAS, it is the intent of all parties to work to secure Zone 7 approval of a cost effective Livermore Flood Protection Improvements project that is eligible for reimbursement and/or exemption credits, to obtain reimbursement for Livermore Flood Protection Improvements required for these developments and to have Zone 7 prioritize these improvements in their StreamWlSE program; and WHEREAS, Livermore and Pleasanton agree to work together to secure Caltrans approval of any additional improvements required for the Caltrans I-580/Fallon Road Interchange Modification Project No. 04-257604; and WHEREAS, all parties wish to enter into a cost sharing agreement for the improvements which are mutually beneficial to Livermore and Pleasanton and Authority; and WHEREAS, the Pleasanton City Council, having considered the merits of a proposed Cost Sharing Agreement between the cities of Livermore and Pleasanton and the Surplus Property Authority of Alameda County, finds that it is in the best interest of Pleasanton to enter into such Agreement; and WHEREAS, the Pleasanton City Council further finds that approving this Agreement is not a project for purposes of the California Environmental Quality Act in that this Agreement does not obligate Pleasanton to grant any land use entitlements for the Staples Ranch Property and does not require Pleasanton to construct, or fund the construction of, any improvements in the absence of Pleasanton's annexing the Staples Ranch Property which would occur only after the City Council has considered and certified an environmental impact report concerning such annexation and related land use entitlements, if any. NOW, THEREFORE, THE PLEASANTON CITY COUNCIL DOES HEREBY RESOLVE AS FOLLOWS: Section 1. Approves the Cost Sharing Agreement between the cities of Livermore and Pleasanton and the Surplus Property Authority of Alameda County and authorizes the City Manager to sign such Agreement in a final form as approved by the City Attorney.
