<br />EC 9.6505(1) Water Supply <br /> <br />Referral comments from Eugene Water and Electric Board (EWEB) (January 15, 2018) are <br />included as Attachment E at the end of this report and indicate there is sufficient water to <br />supply the proposed Capital Hill PUD. However, the water system is restricted by the existing <br />infrastructure which does not have adequate capacity to provide the required domestic and <br />fire water flows to the proposed development. The proposed development will require <br />significant upgrades to the EWEB water system, which would include a new pump station and <br />associated piping. Other informational items regarding water service are included in the <br />referral comments attached to this report. Referral comments from Public Works staff note <br />that prior to final subdivision approval the applicant will need to provide documentation from <br />EWEB ensuring adequate water service. To ensure this standard is met, the following condition <br />of approval is recommended: <br /> <br />Prior to final plat approval, the applicant shall provide documentation that EWEB has <br />received a financial guarantee, ensuring water will be provided to each lot in the plat. It <br />is noted that EWEB currently accepts cash payment, bond, or an irrevocable letter of <br />credit as financial guarantees. <br /> <br />As an informational item, the plans indicate two existing fire hydrants and two new proposed <br />hydrants with this development proposal. Since all new homes in the development will have <br />automatic sprinkler systems, a 50% reduction in the minimum fire flow from these hydrants, <br />from 1,000 gallons per minute to 500 gallons per minute, will be allowed subject to further <br />review as part of any applicable Fire Code requirements during the subsequent building permit <br />process. <br /> <br />Based on these findings, and with the condition of approval above, the standard for water <br />supply will be met. <br /> <br />EC 9.6505(2) Sewage <br /> <br />This standard requires all developments to be served by wastewater sewage systems of the <br />City, in compliance with the provisions of EC Chapter 6. <br /> <br />The applicant proposes to serve Lots 1-12 and 23-28 by extending a public mainline to the <br />south in Capital Drive from an existing manhole (#9149) with service to Lots 5-12 and 27-28 <br />being provided by individual private pressure services located in the private street, Cupola <br />Drive. <br /> <br />The applicant proposes to serve Lots 13-17, 20-22 and 29-34 by extending a public mainline to <br />the north in Capital Drive (and a portion of Cupola Drive) from an existing manhole (#3706) with <br />service to Lots 13-17 and 29-32 and 34 being provided by individual private pressure services <br />located in the private street, Cupola Drive. <br /> <br /> <br />Capital Hill PUD (PDT 17-1) February 2018 41 <br />Page 41 <br /> <br />
