The Agreement defined the obligations and responsibilities of the <br />Town of Woodside, the Fair Oaks Sewer Maintenance District, and the City. The Town of Woodside agreed <br />to: <br />1. Acquire 100,000 gallons per day of treatment capacity through the City, which is a member <br />agency of the Silicon Valley Clean Water Authority (SVCW), to service the sewage effluent <br />from Town Center; and <br />2. Compensate the Fair Oaks Sewer Maintenance District (FOSMD) and the City for the use of <br />their sewer facilities to transport the Town of Woodside’s sewage to SVCW’s treatment plant <br />for treatment and disposal. <br />The Agreement limits the service area from the Town of Woodside Downtown Area to the area from Palm <br />Circle Road to Godetia Drive, and from Canada Road to Glencrag Way. <br />ANALYSIS <br />The Town of Woodside requested Amendment No. 14 to the Sanitary Sewerage Treatment Capacity Rights <br />and Services Agreement to amend the Service Area Map for the Town Center Sewer Assessment District <br />(TCSAD). This amendment would add the real property at 196 Albion Ave (Assessor Parcel Number 072- <br />162-200) in the Town of Woodside into the TCSAD. Exhibit A of the proposed Amendment No. 14 to the <br />Agreement (Attachment A) shows the current TCSAD service area. Exhibit B (Attachment A) shows the <br />Town of Woodside’s Council Resolution approving the addition of the Property into the service area that <br />was adopted on September 9, 2025. <br />In the previous amendments to the Agreement, a total of twenty-two parcels were added and one parcel <br />was removed from the TCSAD service area. Based on flow meter readings and connection counts from <br />the Town of Woodside, the Town of Woodside’s current sewage flow is less than 50 percent of the 100,000 <br />gallons per day of wastewater treatment capacity purchased from the City. It is estimated that an <br />additional single-family residence will generate 270 gallons per day of wastewater, which is the expected <br />increase of sewage generation from TCSAD. TCSAD’s total flow will remain well below the agreed 100,000 <br />gallons per day for treatment capacity. <br />The Fair Oaks Sewer Maintenance District also would need to consent to Amendment No. 14, prior to the <br />amendment taking effect because the flow from TCSAD discharges directly into their sewage collection <br />system. From there, TCSAD’s effluent is conveyed to the City’s sewage collection system before reaching <br />SVCW’s wastewater treatment plant in Redwood Shores. <br />8.O. - Page 2 of 16 <br />705
