Report
BACKGROUND
Deactivation of the Onizuka Air Force Station created five parcels of land, four of which were conveyed to local agencies for re-development pursuant to the Onizuka Redevelopment Plan. One of those parcels, Parcel C shown on Attachment 1, was conveyed to Foothill De-Anza Community College District (the "District") who proposed to construct an educational center on Parcel C (the "District Project"). The District Project is subject to the jurisdiction of the Division of the State Architect and the laws and regulations of the State of California governing community colleges. In addition and pursuant to an agreement executed in 2011 between the District and the City, the District Project shall be consistent with specific City regulations, including utility connections.
There is an existing 12-inch public sanitary sewer line within an existing public utility easement that passes through the District Property as shown on Attachment 2. The District Project proposed to connect two private sanitary sewer lines to the 12-inch public sanitary sewer line. The condition of the 12-inch sanitary sewer line was evaluated and determined to be in poor condition needing replacement. In addition, the pipeline is part of a segment of sewer line that has been identified for upsizing to a 15-inch line in the City's 2014 Wastewater Master Plan.
