CITY Amm SOUTH AGUA HEDIONDA TRUNK SEWER CITY MOR.& a, u L4 0 w L4 aJ U U ~~ RECOMMENDED ACTION: Adopt Resolution BJ77appropriating $3 million to build the South Aqua Hedionda Trunk Sewer in Cannon Road east of 1-5. BACKGROUND The City sewer master plan was adopted by Council on 4/23/85. That plan included Council Policy 35 which listed the sewer projects to be build with City sewer funds. One of those projects is the South Aqua Hedionda trunk line (Cannon Road). That line will provide sewer service to the undeveloped area between Aqua Hedionda Lagoon and the airport (known as Area 5). Included in Area 5 are the following major developments and land owners: Kelly Ranch (Kaufman & Broad) Carlsbad Highlands (Jack Barnes) Robertson Ranch Carlsbad Research Center (Koll) Carltas Co. (Ecke Ranch) SDG&E Carlsbad Rtidge (Mandana) Macario City Park In order for these developments to move ahead a sewer trunk line and pump station must be built on Cannon Road. Council needs to appropriate $3 million to include this project in the City Capital Improvement Program. CT 83-30 KELLY RANCH Council approved the tentative map for Kelly Ranch on September 4, 1984. The following requirement relative to trunk sewer was made a condition of the development: “4) A sewer trunk line, pump station and forcemain in Cannon Road from El Camino Real to adequate existing facilities west of the project capable of handling the proposed sewage flotr in accordance with the latest requirements of the City’s sewer master plan. If the City Council authorizes the development of a project within this phase utilizing an alternate means of sewering the project the developer shall at a minimum construct a dry sewer trunk line in the required portion of Cannon Road adequately sized to handle the future sewer demands as shown on the City’s latest sewer master plan. The developer is eligible to enter into a reimbursement agreement with the City in accordance with City code for any portion of the sewer facilities sized greater than what is required solely to service the proposed development. The imposition of this condition shall not preclude the developer from using an alternative financing mechanism as may be approved by the City Council at a later date." (Resol. 2333, p. 7) Kaufman & Broad now wants Council approval of a Final Map creating 22 parcels over the entire Kelly Ranch. Approval of that map requires a finding that sewers are available to serve the project. The staff believes that such a finding is dependent upon the Council agreeing to install the Cannon Road sewer or approving an alternate plan. The developers' position is that Council Policy 35, which was adopted after the Tentative Tract map approval, provides a solution to the sewer issue. ASSESSMENT DISTRICT On November 27, 1984 Council directed staff to prepare documents for the establishment of the College/Cannon Assessment District. Developers signed a petition and deposited $80,000 with City to pay for the preliminary engineering work. On April 23, 1985 the documents necessary to implement an assessment district were on Council agenda for action. The proposed district would have built Cannon Road, College Avenue east of El Camino, the sewer trunk and pump station, drainage system and traffic signal at a cost of $35 million. The City's share of the project was estimated at $4 million. The Council never acted on the district because the developers requested that the improvements east of El Camino be deleted. Since then a modified assessment district has been worked on but is not yet ready for Council action. In order to proceed with the assessment district or any other alternate, we need to know how much the City will contribute to the project. The developers have relied upon Council policy 35 and are now asking that council appropriate $3 million and authorize City to build the South Aqua Hedionda (Cannon Road) trunk line. -- AB # 8Y/8 Page Three FISCAL IMPACT: The cost of the trunk line and pump station is estimated at $3 million. Funds are available in the Sewer Construction Fund. If the City builds the sewer line it would be possible to receive some reimbursement from abutting property owners - CARLTAS and SDG&E. Both of those properties are now zoned for agriculture. The cost of right of way is not included. Negotiations are needed with CARLTAS and SDG&E to acquire easements. ALTERNATES : If the Council does not approve the appropriation the following alternates might be considered: A. Agree to participate at a lower level of funding. B. Require developers to fund sewer and provide a future reimbursement agreement. C. Agree to participate only as part of an assessment district. D. Ask developers to make a proposal for an alternate method of providing sewer service. SUMMARY: Further development in Sewer Area 5 cannot proceed until a solution is found to the sewer problem. To implement Council Policy 35, a $3 million appropriation is needed. If this action is taken it will allow the Kelly Ranch and Carlsbad Highland Developments to proceed.

To communicate to developers Council policy regarding the requirement that they pay for sewer trunk lines and local sewer lines within subdivisions. POLICY: The City shall pay for the following facilities from the Sewer Capital Construction Fund: 1. Encina Phase IV and V treatment plant expansion and EDL line and reclamation at Calavera Hills treatment plant. 2. All sewer trunk lines identified in the Sewer Master Plan to be upgraded or replaced. All or replaced . 3. pump stations identified in the Sewer master Plan to be upgraded 4.

New South Aqua Hedionda (Cannon Road) trunk line from Vista-Carlsbad line east to (and including) pump station. This line is included because there is no land that can be developed’adjacent to it and because it serves an area much greater than any one development or master plan. Except for the above, all new sewer trunk lines - regardless of location - and all new sewer lines within a development shall be installed by the developer at his sole expense. The City Council adopted the Sewer Master Plan report and the Interceptor and Trunk Sewer System Master Map prepared by Neste, Brudin.& Stone, dated June, 1984, as the working sewer plan for the City of Carlsbad sewer service area.

It consists of: 1. Land use analysis. 2. Sewage flow calculations. 3. Sewer trunk line and pump sizing. 4. Cost estimate. 5. Responsibility determination (who pays). 6. Revenue analysis. Important Note: This Sewer Elhster Plan is only for the City sewer service area which does not include areas in the City served by the Leucadia County Water District or San Harcos County Water District (generally the La Costa area). LAND USE ANALYSIS The Engineering Department measured the areas of the General Plan by land use type as of 1981 and determined each type of land use by acres: 11,328 acres of Residential 1,392 acres of Industrial 3,393 acres of Commercial Residential density was assumed to be at the midpoint of the General Plan range, e.g., 10 - 20 range used 15 dwelling units per acre. This analysis resulted in a buildout population of the sewer service area of 124,000 (does not include Leucadia and San Marcos sewer areas). This estimate is about 25% higher than the SANDAG School Population Study which estimated 98,000 for the same area. SEWAGE FLOW CALCULATIONS Sewerage flows were estimated for each type of land use. Where possible, actual water meter readings were used, otherwise interpretations of meter readings were used. Assumptions: 1 person (residential) = 100 gallons per day. 1 acre industrial (PI) = 1,200 gallons per day. 1 acre commercial (C) = 1,000 gallons per day. .--- Detailed formula to determine amount of sewage produced by various land uses appears as Table 1 on page 2-2 of the Sewer Master Plan Report by Neste, Brudin & Stone dated June, 1984 and is attached as part of Exhibit "A". SEWER TRUNK LINE AND PUMP SIZING Future sewer flows were established from the above data for each local drainage basin in the city based on land use analysis. Trunk lines and pump stations were located to maximize gravity flow and were sized to accomodate flows. These calculations are presented in detail in Table 3 of the Neste, Brudin & Stone report and are shown graphically in that report on Map 1: Master Map. Exhibit C, attached, shows major trunk lines. COST ESTIMATE Based on the 1984 Construction Cost Index, the Sewer Master Plan report estimates the following costs to build the proposed sewer system: Treatment Plants $18 million Encina - $13 million Calavera - $5 million Pipelines and Pumping $21 million - TOTAL $39 million RESPONSIBILITY DETERMINATION (WHO PAYS) The current policy is that the City will pay for: Treatment plant expansion. Facilities built jointly with other sewer agencies. Replacement and upsizing of existing lines and pumps. New sewer lines within dev.elopments will be paid for by the developers. Based on these policies, the cost of sewer facilities will be allocated as follows: _- A CITY PROJECTS: Encina & Calavera Treatment Trunk upgrading Pump Station upgrading Joint agency facilities Cannon Road trunk SUBTOTAL DEVELOPER PROJECTS: Trunk sewers Pump Stations SUBTOTAL TOTAL COST $18 million $ 1 million $ 2 million $ 6 million $3 million $30 million $ 8 million $2 million $ 9 million $39 million REVENUE ANALYSIS Future sewer connection fees ($1,000 per EDU) will generate $33 million which is sufficient to cover the City's estimated $30 million cost. At buildout, the City will have 53,000 EDU's or 13 million gallons per day of sewage flow. Current flow at Encina is 17,000 EDU's or 4 million gallons per day. 53,000 EDU Buildout Flow -17,000 EDU Current Flow 36,000 EDU Future Flow 36,000 X $I,OOO/EDU = $36 million Less Calavera Credit -$ 3 million Future Revenue $33 million SEWER MASTER PLAN INTRODUCTION In August, 1983, the City Council awarded a contract to the firm of Neste, Erudin and Stone, Inc. to prepare a sewer master plan for the City sewer service area. There were several reasons why a new master plan was needed. Since the Brown and Caldwell plan of 1976 was written, the concept of satellite sewer plants was developed and the Calavera Hills plant was built. The service area of this plant has undergone changes and it appeared that the eastern portion could better be served by Encina. Finally, development was now much better known and more specific sewer system data was needed. .- Neste, Erudin and Stone, Inc. completed a Sewer Master Plan report, a trunk sewer system map and a computer model in June, 1984. The report is a technical explanation of the procedures used in developing the master plan. A summary of the report is presented here. The full report is on file in the City Clerk's Office and the Engineering Department. The Engineering Department prepared a financial analysis of the master plan. This analysis compared anticipated revenues with estimated construction costs. The analysis and recommendations are contained in this report. Adoption of the Sewer Master Plan, Council Policy Statement and recommendations contained in this report will provide the frame work necessary to ensure an adequate sewer system will be planned for and financed from now through buildout of the City. -- . -_ -iv- e- + SEWER MASTER PLAN PART ONE: SEWER TRUNK sYsTEn *-- PURPOSE 1. To evaluate several different alternatives on how to provide sewer within the City’s service area. 2. To choose the best alternative and adopt a master plan. 3. To develop a computer model so that the master plan could be easily updated to reflect actual development or as land use changes occur. .- 4. To determine the capital costs of the trunk lines as a basis for the financial study. ..” ALTERNATIVES In setting up the Master Plan and alternatives, the City sewer service area was divided into seven drainage areas. EXHIBIT B lists the major trunk lines in each area and EXHIBIT C is a map showing these drainage areas. The alternatives primarily revolve around how to sewer Areas 3 (Calavera Hillsland 5 (South Aqua Hedionda). 1. Major flows from Areas 3 and 5 to North Aqua Hedionda (Kelly/Park Drive Line). Calavera Hills Plant not used. 2. Major flows from Areas 3 and 5 routed to South Aqua Hedionda (Cannon Road Line). Calavera Hills Plant not used. 3. Flows to Calavera Hills Plant from Calavera Master Plan Area and from northeast portion of Area 5. 4. Flows to Calavera Hills Plant from Calavera Master Plan area only; 911 of Area 5 to Cannon Road Line. 5. Flows from entire Palomar Airport Basin go to Palomar Sewer Plant. This basin consists primarily of the central portion of Area 5 and the portion of Area 6 north of Palomar Airport Road. 6. Flows from Palomar Airport Basin, except the portion within Area 5 east of El Camino Real, go to Palomar Sewer Plant. -1- - .- .A ,- Alternative No. 4 was selected because it is the most economical from both a capital cost and a maintenance and operation point of view. This alternative is consistent with recommendations made in the Brown and Caldwell report of 1976. The area within the Calavera Hills Basin will be reduced so that flows remain within the plant's capacity. Flows from the remaining area in that basin and along the south shore of the Aqua Hedionda Lagoon will go into the Cannon Road Sewer Line. Flows from the portion of Area 5 east of El Camino Real had been projected to go into the Palomar Joint Line requiring the City to have a maximum capacity of 20.34 MGD in the Palomar Line. With this alternative, the City's requirement in Area 6 is only 14.76 MGD, with 3.0 MGD flow projected to go in the existing Buena Line and 11.76 MGD in the new Palomar Joint Line. Certain assumptions were made in developing this Master Plan and in selecting Alternative No. 4. These assumptions are listed in EXHIBIT A. COSTS Overall costs for all new lines and all line upgrades were estimated. These estimates are preliminary and intended only for use in analyzing Sewer Master Plan alternatives and developing a financial plan. Exact costs will require a detailed design of each line to provide the exact pipe size and slope (affected by Developers' grading) and to determine whether an existing pipeline should have a new line parallel to it or be entirely replaced by a larger line. A policy decision must be made to determine which, if any, lines should be Capital Projects constructed by the City. Those that are not will be the responsibility of the Developer. Recommendations are made in Part Two of this Report, Financial Analysis. PHASING A phasing plan has been included in the report by the Consultant. This phasing was done solely to get some idea of the long-term capital cash flow required. Actual phasing will depend on development activity which is in a constant state of change. The usefulness of the Master Plan is that when a Developer wishes to proceed, he can see the extent of the line that must be constructed and the area it will serve. This latter information will be very useful in setting up assessment districts. The phasing used in the report does not reflect - or even affect - developer's phasing. No harm is done to the master Plan if developer's phasing is different as long as the proper pipe sizes are used. -2- COMPUTER MODEL Included in the Sewer Master Plan is a computer program and all the data used to generate the alternatives. These are capable of being run on the City's Hewlett Packard 3000 computer. Once the program is put on the computer and staff becomes familiar with it, City Staff will be able to easily make changes in assumptions, land use, or the sewer sytem and quickly determine the effects on the Sewer Master Plan. In this manner, the Sewer Master Plan can be constantly updated and "what-if" runs can be made to determine the effect of a proposed land-use change on the system prior to any discretionary action. SUMMARY The Sewer Master Plan should be viewed as the general plan of the sewer sytem. It is a very useful tool to be used by both City staff and private engineers to develop more specific plans. ACTION REQUIRED It is recommended that the City Council accept the Sewer Master Plan by Minute Motion as the working document for the City's sewer system. It is also recommended that a resolution be adopted to formally revise the Calavera Hills' Drainage Basin. -3- c c -. SEWER MASTER PLAN PART TWO: FINANCIAL ANALYSIS F- NOTE: A. This is an estimate of what it will take to construct all additions to trunk lines, pump stations and treatment plants for the City sewer service area at General Plan buildout. Excluded are new sewer lines (other than trunk lines) in new developments. 8. Costs assume Alternative 4 of the Sewer Master Plan is used. C. Each cost figure includes all of the following: Design Construction Contract Administration Inspection Contingencies at 10% D. All costs are stated in July, 1984, dollars. Where costs in this report differ from the source reports listed in EXHIBIT T, it is because the dollars have been adjusted for inflation into current dollars. The Engineering News Record Construction Cost Index for Los Angeles was used to adjust for inflation. The Engineering News Record index for Los Angeles for July, 1984, is 5050. CAPITAL COSTS A.

PRIMARY TREATMENT ONLY AT ENCINA This scenario assumes the secondary waiver at Encina will be approved and be permanent. Currently, approval has not been granted and if it is, it will initially be only for a five year period. 1. REVENUE (from above) $ 34,500,000 2. CAPITAL COSTS (from page 5) 3. BALANCE $(31,990,000) $ 2,510,000 surplus. The conclusion is that, under this assumption all plant facilities and all sewer trunk lines and pump stations identified in the Sewer Master Plan can be paid for from the sewer connection fee if the fee is adjusted for inflation. 8. PRIMARY AND SECONDARY TREATMENT AT ENCINA This scenario assumes that secondary treatment in addition to primary treatment will be required at Encina. 1. REVENUE $ 34,500,000 2. CAPITAL COSTS (from page 5) 3. BALANCE COST AND REVENUE CONSISTENCY $(38,380,000) $ (3,880,000) short fall. All costs have been stated in July, 1984 dollars using an ENR index for Los Angeles of 5050. In order to ensure that -7- revenue projections stay consistent with construction costs, the sewer connection fee should be adjusted annually based on the ENR construction costs index. CONCLUSIONS c Due to the difficulty of estimating future costs and the uncertainties in predicting the future actions of others (for example, will the secondary waiver be approved by the EPA?), a conservative approach is recommended. The assumption that the secondary waiver will not be granted should be used. This may require reconsideration if a permanent waiver is granted. Also a requirement that developers complete portions of specified new trunk lines should be formalized as a City Council policy. RECOMMENDATIONS It 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. is recommended that the City pay for: COST - ITEM - Encina Phase IV and V treatment plant $18,310,000 expansion and EDL line and reclamation at Calavera Hills All sewer trunk lines identified in the Sewer Master Plan to be upgraded or replaced. All pump stations identified in the Sewer Master Plan to be upgraded or replaced. All upgrades or new trunk lines and pump stations which are joint facilities with other agencies. New South Agua Hedionda (Cannon Road) trunk line from Vista-Carlsbad l.ine east to (and including) pump station. TOTAL CITY PROJECTS: $ 1,430,000 $ 1,500,000 $ 5,900,000 $ 2,420,000 $29.540 .oo_O_ -8- The above recommendations form a policy that the City will generally pay for treatment plant expansions, all joint agency facilities, and all replacement and upsiring of lines and pumps. All new sewer lines within developments will be paid for by the developers. The South Aqua Hedionda line up to and including the pump station is not within any development. This line has been planned as a trunk line for some time - originally being recommended in the 1976 Brown & Caldwell report. It will serve a much greater area than a single developer or master plan area, it serves the City's Macario Canyon Park and has no other adjacent land which could be developed and contribute. RECAP Total Revenue City Projects Reserve Fund Total Capital Sewer Projects City Projects Developer Projects $ 34,500,000 $ 38,380,000 NOTE: The reserve fund may be used to even out potential cash flow imbalances and provide for future unforeseen sewer line or pump s t a t ion rep 1 acemen t s . ASSUMPTIONS A. No projections for future costs (as affected by inflation) have been made. Interest on capital funds on hand and adjustments in the sewer connection fee will offset inflationary increases in capital construction costs. 6. Secondary treatment will be required at Encina, if not - now then in five years. C. Carlsbad's ultimate share of the Encina Plant will be 11.8 MGD and that will be sufficient capacity at buildout. -9- .- D. The Calavera Hills plant will be in operation with a capacity of 1.2 MGD and will provide reclaimed water. Also included in the cost estimate for this project is $2,520,000 for storage and distribution of the reclaimed water (ref. No. 4 - Reiterl. E. The Palomar Treatment Plant will never be needed nor built. In the event this assumption changes, the sewer connection charge and recommendations should be reviewed immediately as the costs of this plant are likely to be significantly higher per EDU than those at Encina. F. The capacities required and the revenue generated are based on buildout conditions under the current General Plan and building within the middle of the density ranges . -. - 10 - SEWER MASTER PLAN PART THREE: RECOHUENOATIONS 1. Adopt the "Sewer Master Plan" report and the 'IInterceptor and Trunk Sewer System Master Map" both prepared by Neste, Brudin and Stone Inc., dated June, 1984 as the working sewer plan for the City of Carlsbad sewer service area. 2. Adopt a Council Policy Statement entitled Sewer Master Plan: Financing and Construction of Facilities which sets forth the policy on which facilities will be paid for by the City from the sewer connection charge. 3.

EXHIBIT A SEWER MASTER PLAN ASSUUPTIONS System design for buildout development according to General Plan Land Use as of late 1981. Residential development will average midpoint in the density range. (For 10-20 d.u. per acre, 15 units were used.) A peaking factor of 2.5 times average dry-weather flow was used for trunk line capacity calculations. New pipes follow existing ground contours 7 feet deep. (Major grading may change pipe slopes and sizes.) New pipes flow 75% full maximum. Existing pipes flow 100% full maximum. Existing pipes shown over capacity are indicated to be replaced (rather than one added in parallel) with new pipe flowing 75% full maximum. Flows in jointly owned pipes from other agencies are according to existing agreements. Flow rates by type of land use are shown on the chart on the next page. - 12 - c EXHIBIT A SEWER MASTER PLAN ASSUUPTIONS (continued) Standard Unit Flows Sewer Generation Per Land Use Land Use Land Use Abbrev.
