From YouTube: San Bruno City Council Meeting August 27, 2013 10d. Approve Sewer Lateral Replacement Program
Description
San Bruno City Council Meeting August 27, 2013
10d. Approve Sanitary Sewer Lateral Replacement Program in the Crestmoor Neighborhood
B
B
The
situation
up
in
the
crestmore
neighborhood
is
variable
across
the
whole
neighborhood,
in
terms
of
where
the
sewer
laterals
fall
on
certain
residential
lots
and
I'll
get
into
that
a
little
bit
of
detail.
But
we
believe
that
the
program
that
we're
presenting
here
tonight
is
a
positive
solution
to
some
of
those
challenges
related
to
the
sewers
in
the
neighborhood.
And
what
I
wanted
to
do
was
quickly
just
give
an
overview
of
the
program
and
then
talk
a
little
bit
of
detail
related
to
some
of
the
existing
conditions
up
in
the
neighborhood.
B
So
as
an
overview,
the
proposed
sanitary
sewer
replacement
program,
we
think,
will
help
maintain
the
integrity
of
the
public
sewer
system.
It'll
help
eradicate
some
of
the
private
orangeburg
sewer
laterals
that
you
heard
about
earlier
by
encouraging
their
replacement.
It
will
help
address
issues
related
to
the
settlement
agreement
that
the
city
entered
into
with
the
regional
water
quality
control
board
as
a
result
of
the
bait
keeper
lawsuit
in
2010.
B
It's
consistent
with
existing
private
lateral
replacement
program
already
in
the
city,
and
it
provides
benefit
to
residents
to
the
maximum
extent
possible
without
using
the
pge
trust
funds
for
improvements
on
private
property
and
with
the
exception
of
incidental
installation
of
sewer
cleanouts
that
has
that
have
been
performed
to
date
and
some
of
the
Lots,
particularly
in
phase
two
of
the
project
that
was
recently
completed,
as
well
as
a
payment
of
some
permit
fees
for
the
homes
that
have
been
rebuilt.
No
trust
monies
to
date
have
been
used
for
private
improvements.
B
So
what
I
wanted
to
do
is
take
a
second
and
talk
about
existing
conditions
that
are
up
up
in
the
neighborhood.
This
exhibit
shows
a
typical
home
in
the
neighborhood,
the
sewer
main
out
on
the
street
and
the
sewer
lateral.
This
shows
a
clean
out
here
right
inside
the
property
line.
The
clean
outs
are
and
have
been
installed
in
some
locations
in
the
neighborhood,
but
a
majority
of
residents
do
not
have
cleanouts,
who
are
clean
outs
and
why
that
is
worth
pointing
out.
B
There's
a
couple
reasons:
the
sewer
lateral
really
has
two
components:
the
upper
lateral,
which
is
the
lateral
within
the
private
property
and
then
the
lower
lateral,
which
is
the
lateral
portion
of
the
lateral
within
the
public
street.
If
there
is
no
clean-out
installed
on
a
property
per
the
city's
ordinance,
the
resident
has
the
maintenance
responsibility
for
that
sewer,
lateral
from
their
home
to
the
sewer
main.
If
there
is
a
clean-out
installed
the
suit
the
city
takes
over
the
maintenance
responsibilities
from
the
clean-out
to
the
sewer
main,
with
essentially
the
maintenance
responsibilities
of
the
lower
lateral.
B
This
is
a
slightly
different
view
of
the
same
thing.
What
what
you
see
here
is
meant
to
show
what
we
think
is
the
existing
conditions
based
upon
the
work
that
we've
done
in
Phase
two,
as
well
as
discussion
with
many
of
the
residents
in
the
neighborhood.
So
what
we
have
is
originally
when
the
subdivision
was
constructed,
the
original
developer
put
the
streets
in
he
put
a
clay,
sewer,
pipe
sewer
main
in
the
road,
and
then
he
stubbed
a
clay,
sewer,
lateral
up
to
the
property
line.
B
Okay,
they
go
in,
they
put
the
streets
in
put
the
utilities
in
and
then
they
have
vacant
lots,
finish
lots
and
then
the
builders
come
back
and
build
the
homes.
So
when
the
builders
built
the
homes
they
constructed
the
house-
and
then
they
out
of
the
house
was
a
cast-iron
pipe
typically
there's
a
clean
out
at
the
house,
and
then
they
use
this
orangeburg
material
for
the
sewer,
lateral
itself
from
the
home
to
the
clay
pipe
essentially
just
inside
the
property
line
in
most
locations.
The
original
builder
it
looks
like
did
not
install
clean
outs.
B
There
is
a
connection
there,
but
it's
been
ninety-nine
percent
of
the
cases
it's
buried
underground.
It's
it's
Morty
connection
than
a
clean
out.
What
has
occurred
over
the
years
as
people
as
they
as
they
have
replaced.
Their
upper
lateral
have
installed
clean
outs
in
some
instances,
as
well
as
people
that
have
undertaken
some
of
the
beautification
projects
that
was
referred
to
earlier,
replacing
their
driveways.
They
took
that
opportunity
to
replace
there
aren't
burgh
laterals
as
well.
B
B
We
have
done
a
great
deal
of
outreach
to
the
neighborhood
to
date.
This
drawing
is
shown
up
here.
It's
not
meant
for
you
to
glean
any
detail
off
of
this
is
our
working
drawing
that
shows
our
tally
of
what
the
existing
conditions
are
up
there
and
essentially,
what
we're
looking
at
is
which
homes
we
have
verified
that
have
orangeburg
pipe.
Those
are
the
ones
that
are
shaded
orange.
B
When
I
say
surface
restoration,
we
have
to
excavate
out
the
driveway
put
in
the
new
clean
out
and
then
return
the
surface
to
its
close
to
its
original
condition
as
possible.
If
that
surface
is
decorative,
Pavin
or
paver
blocks,
or
you
know,
stamped
concrete,
it's
a
little
hard
for
us
to
restore
that
back
to
its
original
condition
in
in,
in
that
instance,
we're
given
the
property
owner
the
option
of
not
having
a
clean-out
installed.
We
do
not
have
to
install
clean
outs.
B
Let
me
take
a
step
back
and
talk
about
a
typical
sewer
replacement
project
within
the
city
and
mastic
Avenue
project
was
one
that
was
a
fairly
recent
one,
that
the
council
may
remember.
So
what
what
happens
on
a
typical
sewer
replacement
project
is
the
city
comes
in
and
going
back
to
this
exhibit?
This
is
City
comes
in.
It
replaces
the
sewer
main
and
the
lower
lateral,
and
at
that
point
they
make
the
connection
to
the
existing
sewer,
lateral,
the
existing
upper
lateral.
B
B
So
we
have,
we
will
be
getting
and
have
those
results
of
the
TV
once
once
they
get
to
the
lateral
we're
also
offering
the
property
owner
the
option
of
us
with
our
contract
installing
the
clean-out.
Again,
it's
typically
done.
It's
typically
a
responsibility,
the
property
owner
not
paid
for
by
the
city,
so
those
those
are
two
things
that
we
did
on
Phase
two
and
we'll
be
doing
on
Phase
three.
This
current
project
is
again
offering
the
clean-out
and
tving
the
upper
lateral.
Again,
the
advantage
of
the
property
owner
elekton
to
have
the
clean-out
installed.
B
Is
it
relieves
them
of
the
maintenance
responsibility
for
that
lower
lateral
from
the
clean
out
to
the
main?
The
disadvantage
for
some
property
owners
may
be
what
I
referred
to
earlier,
which
is
the
surface
restoration
if
a
property
owner
like
in
this
example,
if
that
driveway
is
decorative,
paving
okay,
we're
going
to
go
in
excavate
out
around
where
the
clean-out
goes
and
install
the
clean-out
we're
going
to
replace
a
six
foot
by
six
foot
section
of
the
driveway,
it's
awful
difficult
for
us
to
match
that
existing
material,
particularly
if
it
is
a
fancy
surface.
B
So
in
that
instance,
as
we
encountered
on
Phase
two
many
residents
elected
to
not
have
the
clean-out
installed
again,
it's
not
a
requirement.
The
the
other
thing
that
I
wanted
to
talk
about
was
a
little
bit
of
misinformation.
That
I
think
got
out
into
the
neighborhood.
Unfortunately,
and
that
is
that,
if
there
is
orangeburg
pipe
on
the
upper
lateral,
it
doesn't
mean
that
we
cannot
connect
to
it.
We
can
connect
to
orangeburg
pipe
it's
as
long
as
it's
in
good
shape
and
functioning.
There
there's
no
reason
why
we
can't
connect
to
it.
What
we
have.
B
What
we
do
want
to
make
sure
that
the
residents
understand
is
that
orangeburg
pipe
is
a
material,
that's
no
longer
used.
It
is
subject
to
degradation
over
the
years
and,
if
you're
not
having
a
problem
with
it,
now
you
may
in
the
future.
So
it's
a
good
opportunity
with
this
project
for
the
resident
to
take
advantage
of
potentially
replacing
that
upper
upper
lateral
if
it
is
orangeburg.
B
There
is
15
that
have
previously
installed
new
clean
outs.
We
have
not
verified
and
will
be
able
to
verify
for
certain
again
until
we
TV
get
to
there
to
replace
a
lower
lateral
in
TV,
whether
they
replace
their
lateral
haven't
verified
that
with
what
the
property
owners.
Yet
we've
got
106
that
are
beneath
lawn
areas
again
that
that's
simpler
in
terms
of
installing
the
clean-out
we've
got
the
next
four
categories
and
they're
colored
there
and
orange,
because
you
know
they're
the
ones
that
are
more
a
little
bit
more
concern.
B
So
that's
that's
just
meant
to
sort
of
illustrate.
You
know
the
existing
conditions
so,
and
that
brings
us
to
the
proposed
sewer,
lateral
replacement
program.
So
this
is
consistent
with
the
existing
sewer
placement
program
that
I
believe
the
city
has
in
the
rolling
wood
basin.
There
was
a
result
of
the
settlement
with
with
Bay
keeper
and
the
negotiations
with
the
regional
board,
and
that
is
to
replace
or
to
pay
for
up
to
one
half
the
cost
of
the
lateral
replacement
for
a
maximum
seventeen
hundred
dollars
for
the
replacement
of
the
upper
private
laterals.
B
The
typical
replacement
costs
in
the
neighborhood
that
we've
seen
they
range
from
five
thousand
to
ten
thousand
dollars.
Okay,
so
in
most
instances
the
seventeen
hundred
dollars
probably
won't
cover
half
the
cost,
the
five
thousand
at
ten
thousand
dollars.
It's
a
large
gap,
it's
a
big
variable.
A
lot
of
it
depends
on
what
surface
you're
having
to
replace
when
you
replace
that
lateral.
The
other
option
for
actually
open
cutting
the
sewer,
lateral
is
to
do
pipe
bursting,
and
a
lot
of
plumbers
will
do
pie
bursting
again.
B
The
other
thing
is
we're
recommending
that
the
work
be
performed
by
private
contractors
and
plumbers,
and
that's
for
a
couple
different
reasons.
One
is:
we've
got
a
public
contract
for
all
the
work
within
the
public
right
away.
It's
not
a
good
idea
to
have
our
contractor
do
work
on
private
property,
particularly
as
part
of
our
public
contract
I,
know
in
the
past
I
think
the
city
has
offered
the
city's
contractor
contract
independently
and
separately
with
a
property
owner
to
replace
their
upper
lateral.
C
B
C
B
We
provided
an
estimate
in
the
staff
report
if
every
potential
home
took
advantage
of
this
proposed
seventeen
hundred
dollar
program,
it
be
a
little
over
half
a
million
dollars.
So
if
that's
at
17
hundred
dollars,
if
you
essentially
triple
that
you
know
to
get
to
your
average
price
of
a
lateral
yo,
your
probably
looking
at
one
and
a
half
million
dollars
the.
C
Reason
why
I
bring
this
up-
and
this
is
sort
of
food
for
thought-
is
that
we
did
originally
look
into
the
idea
of
underground
utilities
and
that
would
have
been
a
lot
more
considerable
as
far
as
being
on
private
property.
So
that
takes
me
into
you
made
a
statement
saying
that
we
don't.
We
have
not
gone
onto
private
property,
use
the
money,
use
the
trust
money
on
private
property,
so
I'm
trying
to
get
a
better
grasp
on.
Why
that's
significant,
and
why,
in
this
unique
case
in
this,
you
know
situation.
C
D
C
D
Here
is
presentation,
describe
the
various
conditions
on
private
properties
within
the
neighborhood
and
as
I
think
he
he
articulated
and
laid
out.
There
is
a
variety
of
different
circumstances
in
a
variety
of
different
costs,
just
trying
to
do
a
little
bit
of
mental
calculation
when
he
indicated
earlier
roughly
three
times
the
seventeen
hundred
dollars
or
three.
That
would
rescind
cover,
on
average,
a
third
of
the
cost.
D
D
You
end
up
with
a
pretty
pretty
differential
level,
a
pretty
different
level
of
participation
that
you
would
be
providing
to
individual
property
owners,
depending
on
choices
that
they
made
utilizing
in
many
cases,
funds
that
were
provided
previously
by
pge.
So
in
any
case
we
have,
we
staffs
recommendation
was
intended
to
provide
a
wreck
a
program
that
would
provide
a
level
amount
of
benefit.
D
D
I'm
going
to
add
one
more
thing
and
I
hesitated
to
say
this
before,
but
Harry
is
encouraging
me
to
say
it,
and
that
is
that
the
50
million
dollar
trust
fund
was
negotiated
specifically
for
the
city's
cost
associated
with
public
improvements
in
the
neighborhood
and
the
rebuild
of
the
public
infrastructure.
It
is
the
city
council's.
D
There
is
no
specific
provision
in
the
trust
arrangement
that
work
on
private
property
would
be
contemplated.
Now,
there's
an
argument
that
it's
part
of
the
trust
funds
utilization
there
would
be.
We
would
need
to
evaluate,
with
the
trustee
and
with
the
program
defined
by
the
City
Council
and
in
to
identify
what
the
essentially
the
thought
process
behind
that
program
would
be
and
again
seventeen
hundred
dollars,
as
Harry
I,
think
thoughtfully,
articulated,
provides
a
program
that
is
consistent
with
something
that's
been
done
elsewhere
in
the
city.
D
C
First
of
all,
I
don't
want
to
jeopardize
the
you
know
the
use
of
the
trust
fund,
one
if
it's
you
know,
obviously
even
have
to
clarify
that.
If,
in
fact,
the
council
gives
direction
to
go
onto
private
property
duper
when
you
outlay
a
program
that
we
know
is
going
to
cost
five
to
ten
thousand
dollars
and
you're
going
to
reimburse
seventeen
hundred
dollars
because
it
is
a
typical
program.
C
This
is
not
a
typical
program.
This
is
not
a
typical
neighborhood.
This
is
this
neighborhood,
do
not
ask
to
have
the
infrastructure
replaced
and
as
much
as
they
will
probably
in
long-term
appreciate
the
infrastructure
being
replaced.
I,
don't
think
they
anticipated
five
to
ten
thousand
dollars
and
up
as
far
as
restoration,
you
know
to
to
continue
on
living
in
this
neighborhood
I'll
biet.
C
It
will
be
probably
the
safest
neighborhood
in
San
Bruno,
if
not
in
San
Mateo
County,
but
I
just
think
with
the
money
that
we
have
and
the
money
that
is
tagged
for
the
neighborhood,
that
we
should
give
them
as
much
as
we
can
on
a
average
basis,
because
there
are
going
to
be
some
cases
where
you
know
it's
going
to
exceed
that.
But
I
think
we
need
to
give
them
more
than
seventeen
hundred
dollars.
And
I
throw
that
out
to
my
colleagues
all.
A
A
A
E
We
have
something
established,
so,
let's
piggyback
off
that
and
honestly
when
you
get
to
the
five
or
ten
thousand
seventeen
hundred
seconds
to
the
ten
thousand,
which
is
easy
enough,
depending
upon
what
type
of
excavation
how
long
the
install
is
going
to
be
an
etc
the
backfill
in
concrete,
if
that's
necessary,
there's
also
the
permits
so
I
didn't
know
if
that
was
going
to
be
something
that
was
also
on
the
homeowner
to
have
to
get
her.
If
that
was
something
the
city
would
provide.
In
addition
to
the
clean-out
end,
video.
E
It's
already
been
echoed,
but
I
think
seventeen
hundred
dollars
is
not
a
lot,
and
let
me
tell
you
it
takes
it's
very
quick.
When
you
start
talking
about
labor
and
by
the
time
you
ask
of
eight
install
and
backfill
and
all
that
stuff,
it
adds
up
quickly,
especially
if
there's
concrete
involved.
So
I
think
I
would
suggest
that
we
go
back
and
we
look
at
something
that's
correct
and
right
for
this
area
for
the
situation.
I
know
we
already
had
a
program
in
place,
but
again
enough
of
us
been
through
the
situation.
E
We
know
what
they've
had
to
deal
with
and
we're
still
trying
to
get
it
all
back
together
and
so
I
think
how
we
can
assist
in
trying
to
get
that
taken
care
of.
Does
two
things
it
excuse
me.
It
helps
us
with
SSOs.
It
helps
us
in
other
ways-
and
I
know
the
orange
group
too,
if
in
other
cities,
when
they
video
it,
if
there's
a
crack
or
there's
a
lump,
the
whole
thing
has
to
be
replaced.
There's
no
answer,
sir,
but
I
know
in
a
city
to
the
north.
E
They
offer
2,500
in
a
city
to
the
South.
They
offer
5,000
through
their
sewer
a
lot
of
program
so-
and
this
is
something
as
far
as
when
it
comes
to
the
selling
of
the
homes
you
know.
So,
if
we
do
do
the
video
and
I'd
like
to
see
a
DVD
produced
I'd
like
to
see
it
begin
to
the
homeowner
so
that
they
can
have
that
as
useful
tool.
D
Wouldn't
expect
to
charge
permit
fees,
there
are
permit
fees
associated
with
that
type
of
work
typically,
but
that
would
certainly
be
something
that
for
a
program
like
this,
we
would.
We
would
consistent
with
the
council's
previous
action
to
waive
permit
fees
associated
with
the
rebuilding
of
the
homes.
I
would
certainly
see
that
as
being
and
a
clear
opportunity
to
benefit
homeowners,
yeah.
E
F
A
couple
of
questions
and
concerns
I
I
to
think
seventeen
hundred
dollars
is
kind
of
a
very
small
drop
in
a
very
big
bucket.
So
I
would
like
us
to
think
of
how
we
can
increase
that
without
jeopardizing
the
trust,
but
also
what
is
the
timeline
for
this?
If
we
delay
this
too
much
longer,
is
it
going
to
jeopardize
people's
ability
to
to
have,
as
you
know,
their
laterals
done
simultaneously
with
the
contractor
that
we're
having
now.
D
Yeah
I
was
just
consulting
with
Harry
about
that,
because
my
thought
at
this
point
would
be
to
we
wanted
to
get
this
to
you
as
quickly
as
possible,
partly
because
this
has
been
a
strong
issue
of
interest
and
concern
to
the
neighborhood.
Given
that
we've
had
a
couple
of
neighborhood
meetings,
or
at
least
one
neighborhood
meeting
now
that
we've
begun
the
ads
we
were
beginning
and
and
now
that
we've
begun
the
phase
three
reconstruction
project,
you
have
numbers
of
residents
in
the
audience
tonight
demonstrating
evidence
of
that
concern
dressed.
D
That
said,
we
believe
that
returning
to
you
on
sep,
tember
10th
will
not
jeopardize
those
considerations
and
that
we
could
certainly
take
the
City
Council's
comment,
as
we've
heard
it
so
far
into
consideration
and
to
bring
you
back
the
information
that
you're
discussing
and
requesting.
So
we
believe
that
we
could
take
a
little
bit
more
time,
although
time
does
remain
relatively
of
the
essence,
primarily
to
coordinate
with
this
project
and,
frankly,
to
you,
put
the
minds
of
the
residents
at
ease
and
not
leave
this
issue
lingering
out
of
their
heads.
Do.
F
I
make
do
we
have
enough
staff.
Well,
I
know
the
city
doesn't
have
enough
stuff,
but
is
there
enough
staffing
available
to
do
some
of
the
things
that
you're
talking
about
and
kind
of
capture,
some
of
the
difficulties
and
the
complexities?
If
we,
if
we
say
pay
for
everything
or
pay
for
half
of
every
whatever
it
costs,
it's
labor
intensive?
As
far
as
staffing
goes,
do
we
need
to
staff
up
for
that
or
can
parry
you
have
somebody
you
can
do
it
I,
don't
want
us
to
make
a
decision
and
then
find
out.
B
Yeah
I
think
in
terms
of
the
staffing
to
administer
this
or
to
manage
it.
We
have
staff,
we
have
two
full-time
inspectors,
a
resident
engineer
and
a
full-time
inspector
out
in
the
field,
they're
the
ones
that
have
been
doing
a
lot
of
this
legwork
that
produced
you
know
both
this
working
drawing
as
well
as
this
summary
here
so
I
think
in
terms
of
managing
the
program.
Yes,
we
we
have
adequate
staff,
okay
again,
depending
on
the
details
of
the
program.
B
If
it
is
like
we've
recommended
here
tonight
that
we
don't
have
city
contractors
and
perform
the
work,
then
we're
really
in
a
situation
where
the
private
property
owner
performs
the
work,
submits
their
invoices
to
us
to
review,
to
make
sure
that
you
know
everything's
aboveboard
and
then
we
work
out
the
reimbursement
accordingly.
Okay,.
A
G
Yeah
Harry,
so
can
you
kind
of
elaborate
on
the
level
of
effort
in
terms
of
doing
this
upper
lateral
work
in
conjunction
with
the
lower
lateral
work
that
we're
already
on
board?
Is
there
significantly
more
effort
if
this
is,
if
say
that
part
of
the
work
is
already
done,
or
if
somebody
chooses
to
do
it
farther
down
the
road.
B
Ya
know
that
that's
a
good
question,
ideally
it
would,
it
would
occur
at
the
same
time,
primarily
because
again,
if
we're
I
can
find
the
cursor
here
there
we
go,
prime
primarily,
if
we're
excavating
up
to
the
property
line,
to
install
the
lower
lateral,
we're
going
to
have
a
hole
right
there,
especially
if
they
like
to
put
a
clean
out
in
so
we're
going
to
have
a
hole
right
there.
That's
the
time
for
them
to
either
you
know
pipe
burst
or
open
cut
their
lateral
back
up
to
the
house.
B
That
way
we're
not
digging
two
holes
in
the
future
now.
Is
it
prohibitive?
Absolutely
not
what
we
can
do,
even
if
there's
it's
a
concrete,
driveway
or
decorative
paving,
we
can
always
put
a
temporary
surface
down
asphalt.
We
did
that
on
phase
two
for
several
of
the
residents
where
we
excavated
up,
install
their
clean
out,
put
temporary
asphalt
down
and
then
the
future
came
back
and
did
the
surface
restoration.
G
H
It
help
to
get
the
residents
to
submit
their
bids
because
I
know
we
have
a
network
in
our
neighborhood
and
some
of
the
neighbors
have
might
have
a
plumbing
company
and
they
have
offered
discounts
to
other
neighbors.
So
would
it
help
if
we
could
get
you
bids
on
what
it's
going
to
cost
each
house
and
if
you
have
the
addresses
most
of
them
are
on
the
lawn
through
the
lawn,
but
we
I
mean
if
we
knew
who
they
were.
H
G
Okay
through
the
chair
Michael,
it
may
actually
be
useful
if
we
sort
of
triage
that
list
that
we
know
that
the
longer
ones
are
going
to
be
fairly
easy
to
do.
But
if
we
could
get
some
indication
from
the
home
owners
on
the
remaining
properties,
if
it's
something
they
would
even
be
willing
to
do,
it
might
make
our
decision
a
lot
easier.
If
we'd
know
what
what
exactly
we're
dealing
with
my
yes.
A
I
John
mclaughlin,
I
live
on
clairmont
and
first
of
all,
I
want
to
applaud
you
for
taking
this
on,
because
I
think
it's
very
important
and
our
circumstances
are
a
little
different.
We
made
a
decision
when
we
had
the
driveway
replace
to
go
ahead
and
have
the
orangeburg
scoped
and
have
it
replaced.
It
was
a
choice
of
spending,
a
moderate
amount
of
money
now
or
spending
a
larger,
much
larger
amount
of
money
later,
and
so
we
made
that
decision.
I
It
orangeburg,
you
know,
hindsight's
wonderful,
probably
never
should
been
used.
It's
great
for
skyscrapers.
You
go
to
the
Pentagon,
it's
orangeburg,
you
go
to
empire
state
building,
it's
orangeburg,
but
under
your
driveway
is
like
in
our
particular
case,
not
good.
The
other
thing.
The
final
thing
I'd
like
to
mention
is
you're
talking
about
private
contractors
doing
it.
I
It
would
be
great
if
some
of
the
local
plumbers
could
get
some
of
this
business.
There's
a
lot
of
good
plumber
is
doing
business
in
san
bruno.
Many
of
them
live
in
our
city,
and
each
of
us
that
is
have
dealt
with
them
can
tell
you
that
this
particular
plumber
did
a
good
job
and
we're
very
happy
with
the
one
that
do
our
work.
We
taught
I
talk
to
other
people,
they're
very
happy
with
the
plumber
that
did
their
work.
It'd
be
very
nice
if
some
of
that
business
could
go
their
way.
Thank
you.
Thank.
C
You
tamara,
I
did
I'd
like
to
segue
into
what
that
gentleman
just
said.
I
believe,
if
we're,
if
this
council
decides
to
significantly
supplement
this
work,
I
think,
within
within
the
law,
I
think
we
should.
We
should
make
a
concerted
effort
to
qualify
contractors
when
it
gets
out
that
that
the
city
may
be
funding
X
amount
of
sewer,
laterals
they're
going
to
be
inundated
in
that
neighborhood
I
mean
there's
going
to
be
business
cards.
It's
going
to
be
plumbers
all
over
the
place
and
I
believe
that
we
need
to
be
prudent
in.
C
You
know
minimizing
that
and
hopefully
making
sure
that
we
do
have
the
type
of
contractors
that
the
gentleman
just
stayed:
yeah,
local
reputable
proven,
and
so
my
other
question
was:
is
there
other
options
that
may
not
have
to
them?
You
know
that
you
can
say
abandon
a
lateral
in
order
to
save
the
driveway
and
possibly
go
into
the
lawn.
You
know
with
the
new
lateral
I
mean:
are
there
the
you
know
versus
you
know
versus
pipe
bursting
yeah?
You
can
address
that
yeah.
B
Unfortunately,
the
lateral
location
is
driven
by
where
the
plumbing
comes
out
of
the
main
sewer
pipe
comes
out
of
the
house,
so,
for
example,
in
in
this,
exhibit
here
we're
assuming
that
the
main
sewer
connection
out
of
the
house
comes
out
of
the
house
or
inside
the
garage
which
is
typical
of
a
lot
of
the
homes
up
there.
Some
of
them
might
be
in
the
you
know,
lower
right-hand
corner
of
the
house,
for
example,
and
it
goes
through
the
law
and
others.
It
might,
you
know,
come
out
midway
through
the
house.
C
If
we're
placing
new
sewer,
laterals
lower
and
up
I
mean
for
spacing
all
new
lower
laterals
of
it,
I
know
easier
said
than
done.
Why
couldn't
we
come
further
down
and
just
go
diagonally
towards
that
one
point
and
totally
and
try
to
you
know
minimize
the
disruption
of
any
structure.
You
know
we
may
tear
up
a
whole
landscape
little
area
but
I
mean
I.
Think
if
that's
an
option
the
resident
can
make
that
determination.
