The proposed water reservoir site consists of one parcel that has been historically used as open space and the pump station site consists of one parcel that is developed with an existing pump station. The 4.36-acre water reservoir site is located at 3000 East Dunne Avenue and is approximately 220 feet northeast of the intersection of East Dunne Avenue and Flaming Oak Lane; the 0.2-acre pump station site is located at 2375 East Dunne Avenue. The sites are identified by Assessor’s Parcel Numbers (APNs) 729-09-001 and 728-1-003, respectively. The City’s General Plan land use designation for the water reservoir site is Open Space and the pump station site is designated as Residential Estate; both parcels are zoned as Open Space.
Document Description
The proposed project would consist of the construction of an 850,000-gallon above-ground welded steel water supply reservoir and a future pump station, as well as a 15-foot-wide perimeter access strip encircling the water reservoir, an underground biofiltration vault with rock-armored outfall, and landscaping to filter views of the reservoir. In addition, the project would include the replacement of two existing pumps currently in use at the East Dunne Booster Station at 2375 East Dunne Avenue with larger electric pumps.
