CALTRAIN STATION UPDATE PRESENTATION
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council review and provide direction to staff on the current
proposed design for the Caltrain Station.
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION
On January 18, 2008, through an interoffice memorandum, the Council was informed of proposed
design options for the new Caltrain station and their feedback was requested for location of the drop-
off area.
Two options were discussed in the memorandum. The first option was at Airport Blvd and Baden
Ave utilizing the existing City propc~rty at 178/180 Airport Blvd as well as two additional parcels to
be acquired by the City from privat~: property owners (Borba & Bertlesen). The second option was
located at Executive Drive, east of highway 101. This option utilized the existing street width as well
as City owned property currently being used by Comfort Suites as parking. Executive Drive is
currently a private street, however, representatives from Gateway who own the property have agreed
to transfer title to the City at no cost since they will benefit from relinquishing the maintenance
responsibilities. Staffhad recomm~:nded the second option and Council's response was also in
agreement with that option.
At this time, San Mateo County Transit District is prepared to provide a presentation on details of the
new design and respond to questions regarding the various features of the proposed station as well as
the construction schedule.

Honorable Mayor and City Council
Ray Razavi, City Engineer
RECYCLED WATER PROJECT FACILITY PLAN PROGRESS
PRESENTATION
RECOMMENDATION
It is recommended that the City Council review and advise, through discussion, City staff
on a Memorandum of Understanding (MOD) for Engineering Consulting Services for a
Recycled Water Project Facility Plan (RWPFP) with the San Francisco Public Utility
Commission (SFPUC), California Water Service Company (Cal Water) and a Consulting
Services Agreement with Carollo Engineers.
BACKGROUND/DISCUSSION
In 2007, the Cities of South San Francisco (SSF), San Bruno and Brisbane, in conjunction with
SFPUC and Cal Water completed a feasibility study for utilizing recycled water as an additional
water source, primarily for irrigation. The feasibility study identified potential customers and
generation/distribution optionso In essence, the study concluded that there is a real chance to
create and use recycled water for non-potable purposes throughout the north Peninsula.
Since issuance of the feasibility study, staffhas met with representatives from SFPUC and Cal
Water to discuss a facility plan to provide recycled water in various phases to potential customerso
Recycled water facilities require a high initial capital investment for constructing the treatment
facility and transmission pipelineo The cost to produce and deliver recycled water is currently
three to four times the cost of purchasing potable water, so the cost differential is a major
impediment to the sponsoring agencies who would benefit from the project. SSF, SFPUC and
Cal Water are proposing to be the proj ect sponsors and each would need to absorb a portion of the
initial cost and on-going expenses ifthe project is to go forward. Additional state/federal grant
funding would also be pursued to supplement the fundingo Each agency would benefit from this
project as follows:
SFPUC - By eliminating potable water delivery to the National Cemetery and various other
irrigation users, SFPUC will have more potable water available for resale which would be
especially beneficial during drought years. SFPUC also has concerns regarding the depletion of
the aquifer created by major users pumping from wells 0 Another source would protect the
aquifero
Staff Report
Subject:
MOU AND CONSULTING SERVICES AGREEMENT FOR RECYCLED
WATER PROJECT
Page 2 of3
Cal Water - By eliminating or reducing ground water usage by the golf course and cemeteries, Cal
Water will have more capacity available to them through excess ground water. Cal Water
proposes to provide delivery infrastructure, maintenance, and customer billing for the recycled
water since SSF does not currently have the required staffing for the water distribution/billing.
SSF - Construction of a new recycled water treatment facility will increase SSF's sewer treatment
capacity. It will reduce the sewer effluent discharged to the bay and contribute to SSF's
commitment for being a "Green" eommunityo Additionally, more potable water availability
would provide opportunities for additional development.
SFPUC and Cal Water would like SSF to join them in securing a consultant (Carollo Engineers)
to prepare a RWPFP. This RWPFP will help determine how to proceed with conceptual and
detailed design efforts and determine future cost sharing and risks between all parties.
The purpose and goals of this Consulting Services Agreement are to:
. More clearly identify recycled water demands and requirements using satellite treatment
facilities;
. Identify pumping and piping modifications required to deliver secondary effluent from the
Water Quality Control Plant to satellite tertiary facilities;
. Design a conceptual distribution system and storage and pressure requirements to deliver
recycled water;
. Provide preliminary information on treatment processes including sizing of fine screening,
tertiary membranes, and support equipment;
. Evaluate various reuse options to identify preferred project alternatives including
treatment, storage, transmission and distribution facilities;
. Prepare preliminary drawings for the preferred project alternatives and develop project
design criteria;
. Develop preliminary detailed cost estimates of the identified preferred project
alternatives;
. Obtain a comprehensive, ea.sily understandable facility plan on Recycled Water Project
alternatives and;
. Coordinate the use of surface and groundwater resources in the South Westside Basin
The cost for development of this plam (estimated at $173,200) would be shared equally among the
three parties. At the completion of the plan, the parties would review and decide on the next steps
and agreements for construction of the treatment facilities, transmission and distribution
responsibilities, as well as cost sharing for the capital improvements and operation costso
Council may also consider a preliminary financial analysis to determine if it wishes to push this
project further before more detailed. plans are developed. It may also be Council's desire to have
staff work closely on distribution and cost collection issues with Cal Water before proceeding to
preliminary project details. Staffhelieves that Cal Water is best suited to take the product from
our plant and deliver it to customers; however, it does not believe that SSF should bear a higher
cost than Cal Water in this endeavor, nor should it be denied any lesser benefit from such
collaboration.
Staff Report

WATER PROJECT

FUNDING
The total cost of the Engineering Consulting Services would not exceed $173,200 and will be
apportioned equally between the three parties. SSF's share is $57,733. Funds have been
budgeted for this project in the 2007-2008 CIP.
CONCLUSION
The facility plan is the next phase ofthe feasibility study. Staff recommends we continue with the
next phase of this project and will prepare the necessary documents and staff report to present to
Council formally at a meeting in April. Adoption ofthe resolution would then authorize the City
Manager to enter into a MOU for a Recycled Water Project Facility Plan with SFPUC and Cal
Water and award an Engineering Consulting Services agreement.
