C-48 | City of Pleasanton Housing Constraints Dublin-San Ramon Services District (DSRSD) provides Pleasanton’s sewage treatment services. Disposal of treated effluent from DSRSD’s plant to the San Francisco Bay is provided by means of disposal lines managed by LAVWMA (Livermore Amador Valley Water Management Agency), a Joint Powers Authority (JPA) between the City of Pleasanton, the City of Livermore, and DSRSD. A 2017 capacity evaluation of the DSRSD showed that the DSRSD Wastewater Treatment Plant had spare capacity. Recent recycled water projects and conservation efforts for reuse of wastewater within the Tri-Valley service area have helped to reduce impacts on treatment capacity. There are several known deficiencies within the sanitary sewer system in need of improvement. These improvements are most likely to be undertaken as CIP projects or as part of future development. Certain housing sites identified in the sites inventory will require expansions and/or upsizing to the local sewer collection system to support housing development. This is further discussed in Appendix B (Sites Inventory and Methodology). As required by Government Code §65589.7, in May 2008, the City adopted an administrative policy to provide priority water and sewer service for housing developments serving lower income households. Dry Utilities Pacific Gas and Electric (PG&E) and East Bay Community Energy (EBCE) provide electricity services in Pleasanton, and additional dry utilities include natural gas (PG&E), telephone, cable television, and internet (AT&T and Comcast/Xfinity), and solid waste (Pleasanton Garbage Service). Future projects that require new connections would have to coordinate with responsible dry utility providers, and none have identified deficiencies or inability to provide utilities throughout Pleasanton for any future development. Future system expansion costs for new development are typically shared between the service provider and developers.
