BAY FAIR TOD SPECIFIC PLAN Infrastructure improvements are required to support the Bay Fair TOD Specific Plan Area (Plan Area). The majority of the Plan Area currently consists of shopping centers and parking lots. Redeveloping the area with residential and commercial uses described in this Specific Plan will require significant improvement to and expansion of the underground infrastructure including municipal water, sewer, storm drainage, and fiber optics/broadband networks. Furthermore, the City's General Plan emphasizes conservation, sustainability, efficiency, and waste reduction. Therefore, this Plan envisions to the greatest extent possible the incorporation of reclaimed water projects, solar power generation, solar heating, efficient recycling, storm water pollution prevention and infiltration, and other environmentally sensitive and carbon footprint minimizing infrastructure. The City's vision also emphasizes availability and access to high speed telecommunications. Whether provided by local/community broadband networks, private carriers and/ or through private/public partnerships (i.e., LitSL), all new development will be required to offer high quality, reliable internet and other telecommunications services and amenities (i.e., free and public Wifi, cellular technology) in compliance with the Fiber Optics Master Plan currently in the planning stages. To provide guidance on these topics for the Bay Fair Plan Area, this chapter provides plan - level policy and strategy for the following topics: • Water Supply • Reclaimed Water • Storm Drainage and Flood Control • Wastewater Collection and Treatment • Energy (energy production, district energy, micro -grid, electrical, natural gas) • Telecommunications (fiber optic, cable TV, telephone, and wireless) • Solid Waste and Recycling • Police and Fire Services • Public Schools 106
