BACKGROUND One of the elements of the Vineyard Avenue Corridor Specific Plan was to eliminate the sanitary sewer pump station within the Foxbrough Estates by installing a gravity sewer main between the pump station and the Vineyard Corridor improvements. This sewer main was installed by one of the developers within the Specific Plan area and was subsequently accepted by the City in December of 2006. Since the acceptance of the gravity sewer main, the City's utility crews have been decommissioning the pump station. At this time, only the building that housed the electrical service and telemetry remain. The owners of the property on which the pump station is located has asked staff to leave the building for their use as a garden shed. Since leaving the building saves the cost of demolition, staff felt it appropriate to leave the building. DISCUSSION When the pump station for Foxbrough development was installed with the subdivision improvements, it was intended to be temporary until such time as a gravity main could be constructed. Since this station was interim, it was placed within an easement rather than on land owned by the City, making the disposition of the City's interest in the property much simpler. The easement measures approximately 238 square feet (see attachment, vicinity map), and is located on 742 Foxbrough Place (Lot 5 of Tract 5902 Foxbrough II). Only that portion of the public service easement containing the pump station will be abandoned. The 8-foot wide public service easement located behind the City street right-of-way is used for other existing City utilities and other utilities owned by PG&E, Pacific Bell, and cable TV, and will remain.
