BACKGROUND In 2005, a systems report was prepared to analyze the current and future needs of the City's Water Pollution Control Plant. The report identified a variety of improvement projects needed to replace, increase capacity, andlor improve system redundancy and reliability. Failure of the aging system would create a strain on the existing process and potentially lead to effluent leaving the facility that does not meet industry and regulatory standards. The existing plant property is severely congested, and does not have sufficient space to accommodate the proposed facilities or to allow staging the work while maintaining the 24-hour per day operation. Acquisition of the adjacent property will permit the construction of some of the recommended improvements in an area of sufficient size to provide a safe and efficient facility with proper separation from nearby property. The property adjacent to the plant is currently used for the operation of an auto dismantler. The site is commonly known as Bert & Johnnie's and is located at 2550 Davis Street. This site, which fronts Davis Street, serves the six 1 acre sites along Eden Road and contains the buildings used for retail, dismantling and storage purposes. To accommodate the needs of the Water Pollution Control Plant, 0.66 acres of this site is required. Analysis This action will allow the City Manager to execute an agreement if negotiations are successful with the property owner.
