WHEREAS, in 2006 the City of Richmond entered into a settlement agreement with San Francisco Baykeeper; and

WHEREAS, Brickyard Cove Association Number Two seeks to replace failing private sewer laterals; and
WHEREAS, failing private sewer laterals create public health hazards due to the potential for contact with sewage from non-functioning private sewer laterals and related sewer overflows; and
WHEREAS, failing private sewer laterals allow significant groundwater into the public sewer system which creates the need for costly capital improvements to the public sewage collection and treatment infrastructure which must be funded through increased sewer service fees.
NOW THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED that the City Council of the City of Richmond recognizes the value of the private sewer lateral grant program and shall expand this program beyond the requirements established within the settlement agreement with San Francisco Baykeeper to serve the Brickyard Cove Association Number Two; and BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the City Manager shall be authorized to allow Brickyard Cove Association Number Two the opportunity to participate in the City’s private sewer lateral grant program and award private sewer lateral grants to the development in a manner that is consistent with the current grant program guidelines. Current guidelines specify grant awards in an amount of $1,800 per sewer lateral. The private sewer laterals within the Brickyard Cove Association Number Two services nine9 dwelling units with an estimated grant award totaling a maximum of $16,200.
