4.A. 2022 Drought Picture (DSRSD staff presentation)
DSRSD Assistant General Manager Lee gave an overview on the on-going drought. Last night,
the Zone 7 Board indicated they would proceed with Stage 2 mandatory conservation. City
Manager Smith invited DSRSD to keep the Dublin Council briefed on drought and
conservation issues, and General Manager McIntyre said DSRSD would be available for
periodic presentations to the Dublin Council. Ms. Smith inquired if conservation would be
required for recycled water as well, and Mr. McIntyre indicated that some level of
conservation would be required.
4.B. 2021 Alternative Water Supply Study and 2021 Water Resiliency Policy (DSRSD staff
presentation)
DSRSD Assistant General Manager Lee gave an overview on the 2021 Alternative Water
Supply Study and the 2021 Water Resiliency Policy recently adopted by the DSRSD Board.
There was interest expressed in desalination to enhance water supply.
4.C. Public Safety Power Shutoff Update (DSRSD staff presentation)
DSRSD General Manager McIntyre gave a review of PG&E’s Public Safety Power Shutoff
Program, and noted that PG&E is improving its system over a decade period. Mr. McIntyre
noted that DSRSD recently purchased 5 portable generators and is installing 2 permanent
standby generators to allow DSRSD to better pump water during power shutoffs. Mr.
McIntyre noted that the recycled water production system was built without standby power
as an economizing measure, and thus recycled water availability might be hampered during
power shutoffs.
4.D. DSRSD Capital Projects in Fiscal Year 2021-2022 (DSRSD staff presentation)
DSRSD Engineering Services Director Zavadil gave an overview of several projects that will be
completed in the next year, including the Wineberry and Canterbury neighborhood water line
replacement project, installation of an above ground motor control center at Pump Station
3A, recoating Reservoir 2, and project to replace aging water line valves.
The Committee discussed a repair project at Dublin Boulevard that took longer to complete
than thought. The delay in completing night-time work caused traffic problems on Dublin
Boulevard. The Committee discussed ways to improve communication with the community,
the City, and the school district, when DSRSD construction or repair has the potential to
disrupt traffic during commute hours.
4.E. Update on Regional Housing Needs Allocation (RHNA) Program (Dublin staff presentation)
Dublin Community Development Director Jeff Baker gave an overview of Dublin’s housing
requirements under the Regional Housing Needs Allocation Program (RHNA). Under the
proposed requirements, which Dublin is proposing, Dublin must plan for 3,719 units in various
categories. Director Vonheeder-Leopold and Director Goel expressed support for Dublin’s
position.

4.F. DSRSD and Dublin Priorities (DSRSD and Dublin elected officials discussion)
By consensus, the RHNA numbers are a concern for the committee. A second priority is
having more frequent meetings of the committee. A third priority is understanding the issue
of cloudy water in Dublin. Mayor Hernandez asked for a separate report explaining the
cloudy water issue. Also, what can be done to address water hardness of Dublin’s water?
5. Next Meeting
By consensus, the Committee agreed to hold the next meeting in December. There is an interest in
meeting quarterly and it was noted that it was previously agreed to hold the meetings twice a year.
Dublin would like to discuss fees on restaurants, particularly for those expanding to permanent

would like an update from Dublin on the RHNA process.
