B.A. - Page 286 Pete's Harbor uity or rceawooa illy Revised EIR Addendum January 22, 2014 Page 3-45 3.7 INFRASTRUCTURE AND PUBLIC SERVICES The relationships of the current Pete's Harbor project to the previously certified 2003 EIR infrastructure and public service impact and mitigation conclusions are described below. Impact 10-1 Analysis: Project-Related and Cumulative Municipal Water Service Demand. The certified 2003 EIR concluded that the Marina Shores Village project could generate a net increase of approximately 430,000 gallons of total water demand (about 1.3 acre-feet) per average day, or 482 acre-feet per year. In addition, the 2003 EIR project would have required approximately 3,250 to 3,400 gallons per minute of emergency fire flow, up to 744,000 gallons of total fire flow volume, and 1,536,000 gallons of emergency water storage on- or off-site. The 2003 EIR incorporated by reference a City Council-approved Water Supply Assessment (WSA) for the 2003 EIR project which determined that the City did not have sufficient water supply at the time to meet the projected water demands of the project together with those of its existing customers as well as the demands of other planned development. Therefore, the 2003 EIR concluded that, until an adequate additional water source was identified and realized, the Marina Shores Village project-plus-cumulative impact on municipal water service demand would be significant and unavoidable. The current Pete's Harbor project would include approximately one-third of the residential units proposed under the previous Marina Shores Village project (411 vs. 1,930), about two-thirds of the residences proposed under the previous Pete's Harbor component (411 vs. 633), and none of the office or commercial uses proposed under the Marina Shores Village project. The Peninsula Marina component of the previous project--now called One Marina--is under construction and partially occupied, and its water needs have already been accounted for in the City's projections. For the current Pete's Harbor project, the City of Redwood City Public Works Superintendent has concluded that--based on Water Code Section 10913--a WSA for the current Pete's Harbor project is not required. The threshold for requiring a WSA is a residential development of more than 500 dwelling units or other types of development (e.g., hotel, commercial, industrial) requiring a comparable amount of water. The current Pete's Harbor project does not meet this criterion. The Public Works Superintendent has concluded: "[The current Pete's Harbor project]will add significant new water demands to the City's water and recycled water systems. This new water demand, however, is factored into Redwood City's 2010 Urban Water Management Plan. The Plan estimates that about 1,870 new multiple family dwelling units will be added to the City every five years from 2010 out to 2030 (a total of 7,479 units). The proposed Pete's Harbor project is well within expected bounds."' As with all new development proposals in Redwood City, the City Engineering Department would require the project to meet fire flow requirements in accordance with City Code Section 38.26 and the Uniform Fire Code. By City Code, the project would also be required to meet the standards of the City's Urban Water Management Plan (UWMP), recycled water project, and water conservation program.
